some updated links: to sign a petition: http://apps.facebook.com/petitions/1/no-development-on-chappies/ for more information: http://houtbay.org.za/ facebook event: Hunger Strike to save Chapmans Peak - Table Mountain National Park On the 5th of February 2012, Hout Bay resident and activist Bronwen Lankers-Byrne is currently staging a hunger-strike at the building site on Chapman's Peak in an effort to protest the building of an office block on one of the most beautiful wildnerness sites in the world - Chapmans Peak, Cape Town, South Africa. Both Bronwen and CRAG (Civil Rights Action Group) are demanding complete transparency regarding the so-called rights of Murray and Roberts (Entilini) to build an office block within the Table Mountain Reserve and for the provincial government to look at less intrusive options(that do exist) for tolling the road.
