Deputy Minister Botes makes follow-up visit to the Western Cape

The Deputy Minister of International Relations and Cooperation, Mr Alvin Botes, is scheduled to visit George, Western Cape Province, on Thursday, 08 April 2021.

The Deputy Minister visited the town last year, 2020, in his capacity as the area’s District Development Model champion. During that visit, he interacted with local communities and identified certain needs.

It is expected that Deputy Minister Botes will donate certain goods as part of the response to pleas made by the communities during his last visit.

Deputy Minister Botes said the efficacy of the District Development Model was dependent on the ability of government to listen to communities, partner with them and make interventions.

The hand-over ceremony will take place during lunchtime (11h30 – 12h00) at the Tyholorha Primary School in George.
