Sun, sea and a sore wallet: What a Cape Town family day out really costs

A family of four would pay R2,530 just for admission to the Two Oceans Aquarium, the Table Mountain Cableway and Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden, excluding transport and food. Statistics South Africa’s 2025 survey, published on 27 October 2026, recorded a 13.1% drop in domestic day trips and a 6.5% decline in overnight trips compared with 2024. Despite fewer trips, domestic tourism spending rose from R60.6 billion to about R63.2 billion. Financial constraints were the leading reason people gave for not travelling, although the national figures do not show that attraction prices caused the decline in trips.

Lubumbashi: One year after pollution blamed on CDM, IRDH demands investigation report and compensation for victims

One year after the industrial wastewater spill on November 4, 2025, attributed to Congo Dongfang International Mining (CDM), the communities of Kasapa, Kamatete and Kamisepe in Lubumbashi are still waiting for the official damage assessment report. Civil society organizations said more than 2.5 million cubic metres of heavy-metal-laden wastewater entered densely populated neighbourhoods. IRDH and its partners are demanding publication of the report and implementation of compensation announced at $6 million for collective reparations and $682,067 for individual claims. They also recall that CDM’s return to operations was conditional on corrective measures, including at least five years of health monitoring and free care for affected people.
