A NEW YEAR , new trains of thought and a new Nation in Conversation series ! The faces on our cover page are the presenters of Nation in Conversation , Theo Vorster and Rozanne McKenzie , on the new set of Nation in Conversation . Readers know Theo as the regular presenter of this television series . This year the experienced Rozanne will join him , and the two of them will definitely encourage animated discussions .
Our area focus is on Wesselsbron and readers can get to know a lot about this agricultural town . We focus on Senwes ' massive silo complex , as well as the new Hinterland branch which proudly fills its shoes ..
We also speak to Francois Strydom , Group Chief Executive Officer of Senwes , who gives us his impressions on the interim results . He also gives us a view on the second half of the season .
