MTSHALI WANTS MORE INVESTMENT

KWAZULU-NATAL premier Lionel Mtshali visited Richard’s Bay on Tuesday in an attempt to persuade business leaders there to invest in under-developed areas of northern KwaZulu-Natal. Mtshali asked a meeting hosted by the Zululand Chamber of Business why there was no investment in Ulundi, a town which has several serviced business sites. Mtshali, seeking investment north of the Tugela River, committed himself to an “ongoing relationship” with business, saying he believes the area had great potential for growth.
