We are please to have been part of the PUCMA (Pongolo - Umzimkulu Catchment Management Agency hosted by EDTEA Newcastle, where the agenda focused on Local Government Water Resources from the perspective of water conservation and water demand management.

As we are located within a Strategic Water Resource Area, these discussions are particularly pertinent to us. South Africa is already a water scarce country, with cliamte change causing severe negative impacts on our nations water resource.

Added to this, we have just entered a 5 year drought cycle. Last year, June 2025 the Ntshingwayo Dam (formerly known as the Chelmsford dam) was at 94% capacity. This year, the dam is at 74% capacity. 20% less than we were last year, and this is only the begining of the drought period.

This only highlights the urgency of proactive actions to protect our water resources long term.

In yet another unscrupulous regulatory overreach, The National Treasury has published the Draft Capital Flow Management Regulations, 2026. While it’s being discussed in many circles as a "crypto crackdown," the fine print reveals that this is about everything you own.

If you own a home, hold physical gold, or have ever created a piece of intellectual property, these regulations affect you. The draft defines "capital" as "anything with a monetary value", including intellectual property and anything that can be converted to money.

Here are the red flags we’ve identified:
Your Home: The Treasury can "attach" your land or home based on mere "reasonable grounds to suspect" a technical contravention. This attachment can be noted directly against your title deed at the Deeds Registry, effectively freezing your ability to sell or bond your own property.
Your Gold: If you own gold (beyond jewellery or coins) above a "determined threshold," you are legally required to offer it for sale to the National Treasury within 30 days. The State fixes the price.
Your Privacy: In a move that feels like a significant erosion of personal freedom, Regulation 25(5) requires you to hand over all passwords, PINs, or private codes to the State if they decide to forfeit your assets.

your voice matters. speak up and object to these unscrupulous infringements on our rights.

Requirements to declare crypto holdings to government, power to seize digital assets, and compel you to hand over private keys on demand.
