We are amid a serious water and electricity crisis. The drought as well
            as the maintenance of the water infrastructure resulted in serious
            concerns being raised about the commitment of all related parties in
                               order to address the situation.

            Water is a vital resource and each and every one must do all they can
            to save water, every drop thereof. Electricity is once again becoming a
            concern. It affects so much of what we do and plan, forcing us to give
            serious consideration to alternatives. We live in one of the sunniest
            countries in the world and there is actually no reason why some basic
                    solar products should not be part of every household.

general Manager                                                                   4
