The August front cover features an iconic rhino viewing safari scene from the image bank of South African Tourism. An appropriate image considering the rhino horn trade debate featured in this edition, which includes a Statement by the South African Department of Environmental Affairs, a summary on the OSCAP (rhino) Conference, and an opinion piece by the late Brian Sandberg, titled 'A Litmus Test for Environmental Governance'. (Read these articles on pages 27 to 31). In the Attractions section of this edition, we feature Cape Town's V&A Waterfront (page 08), and profile the artists of Seychelles (pages 10 to 14). Our regular features in the Business section include the SATSA MIR on the latest inbound travel and hotel occupancy statistics (page 16), South Africa's tourism business performance for the second quarter of 2014 (page 18), access to finance for SMME development (page 22) and an explanation of what the annual tax season really means for businesses in South Africa (page 24). The Hospitality section features a property review on Legend Lodge's Entabeni Conservancy in Limpopo, South Africa. In the Legal section, Louis the Lawyer starts a new series on Risk in Tourism and the theme continues on pages 38 to 39 with Part 2 on Managing Risk. And finally, the Photography section explains how to use the camera histogram feature (page 37).
