Last update: 11 hours ago

Rugby’s Greatest Rivalry: The Bulls host the All Blacks at Loftus Versfeld on Saturday in a key final tour match, with the Bulls chasing a rare upset and New Zealand using the game as a last tune-up before the Springboks series. Road safety: A tyre blowout sparked a fatal N1 crash in Johannesburg (one dead, three injured), with authorities urging regular tyre checks and safe driving. Digital travel: South Africa has launched an Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) system, rejecting 6,126 fraudulent applications in the pilot and rolling out at major airports to curb visa fraud and speed entry. Tourism & travel industry: Film and TV incentives are back on track after DTIC agreed a three-month plan to clear stalled claims and revise guidelines—good news for productions and jobs. Local water crisis: Community leaders in Tongaat, Verulam and Shallcross are pushing for urgent investigations into eThekwini’s water failures. Automotive travel tie-in: Chery SA is running a nationwide contest to name its new bakkie, with a R100,000 prize and a possible trip to China. Property for visitors: A UK buyer has paid a record R15.9m for a Newlands Cape Town penthouse, signalling strong international demand for premium stays.
