South African Border Chief to Visit Busy Crossing.
The top border official in South Africa plans to check on a key crossing point this week. Dr. Michael Masiapato will watch over the Beitbridge border from Thursday through Sunday.
Many people head south after the holidays. The border has seen 20,000 people each day since December. This marks a big jump from normal times when 13,000 people pass through.
This border links eight countries. People and goods move between Angola, Tanzania, Mozambique, Malawi, DRC, Zambia, Botswana, and Zimbabwe. Deputy Chief Jane Thupana will help manage the crowds.
The Border Management Authority keeps things running smoothly. It checks health papers and food safety, ensures buildings stay strong and watches for risks at the border.
Right this minute, the border stands quiet. But Zimbabwe's border workers say traffic will pick up soon. They think more cars and people will cross from January 2 until January 10. Everyone heads home as Christmas break ends.
The border team stays ready, helps people cross safely, and keeps trade moving between nations. Their work matters for the whole area.
