Its my hometown an I have great childhood memories of the EilandNeldere Cronje (Jeffreys Bay, 2022-11-17)

I am signing because I was born in Upington and the Resorts were always the break away for the residents that cannot afford a holiday by the sea or anywhere else. Keep the Arkie and resorts open for residents of Upington. How is it possible that the Eiland was a lush beautiful area 25 years ago, but under the ANC it is impossible to maintain the standard?Gerna Spangenberg (Vermont, 2022-11-17)

Sakkie is my personal friend. Not only is he a friend to me personally but he is a friend to the community. If you take away the arkie, you also remove a friend from the community. No one knows the river as well as Sakkie does. Countless of times Sakkie was called to help with someone drowning, someone who tried to commit suicide by jumping off the bridge and many other occasions where he was needed regarding help in the water or alongside the river. Besides that, if you remove the arkie, you remove the ONLY entertainment for this town on the orange river. We live here, if you take it away, we will live next to the river but will never be able to use it. I have many conferences per year where people from all over the world gather in our town - the Arkie has been one of THE BIGGEST blessings everytime people visit us. If you take it away, you will take away a massive tourism attraction for Upington. Don’t do it.Pickard Henn (Upington , 2022-11-17)

Sakkie se Arkie must stay. There is almost nothing to do in Upington if you want to relaxChanelle Buckley-Allies (Upington , 2022-11-17)

I have stayed in Upington my hole life.. The Arkie has been there since I can remember and it has always been n very nice and fun option to do. We always refer people there when asked what can one do in Upington..We used to go to the pther resorts as a child but now there is nothing left, and I would actually be scared to go there. Upington used to be a beautiful town, now I am ashamed of it.

Upington was always a beautiful clean town with wonderful resort and places where people could go. But the town council failed to uphold this and therefore action need to be taken and we want what is still going well to be respect and allowed to be continued with.Theuns Duvenhage (Midvaal, 2022-11-17)

Omdat dit belaglik is om die arkie weg te vat, dit is letterlik die enigste plek waar upingtonners toegang tot die rivier het. Doe eens pragtige eiland waar jy 24 jaar terug nog kon swem piekniek hou en baljaar het vergaan. Reis met sy super tjoepstil en patpatbaan is moer toe, alles gaan tot nuut en dan kan niemand verstaan hoekom die kinders kak aan jaag nie, want hul het nêrens waar dit veilig is om te gaan nie..Du Raan Zelda (Upington, 2022-11-17)

It's the wright thing to let Arkie to do business as usual, because he has provided us with something to proud of to show the visitors. Visitors enjoy riding on the river. We take our Sunday School kids to the Arkie for their year end functions each and every year.Linda Mei Jansen (Upington, 2022-11-17)

Sakkie se arkie is the only place we can take our families, to enjoy a hot day in the hottest province. There is no other places to hang out and our youth is chosing tik and alcohol cause we cant give them places to hang out and be kidsVerolene Adams (Upington, 2022-11-17)

I'm signing because Die Eiland was the only well-known resort in Upington to stay during holidays and to overnight after a long trip. The best place to be when you visit Upington. Without Die Eiland there will be no Upington or tourist attraction.Marietjie Van Niekerk (Mariental, 2022-11-17)

Ek dink dit is onnodig dat hulle die arkie wil stop dit is n groot atraksie vir Upington en mense kom verken ons dorp en kom van ver af om die arkie te besoek en die beste baas vir die Arkie is Sakkie en hy het n uitstekende diens aan die gemeenskap gelewer. Moet nie slapende honde wakker maak nie.Madeleen Olivier (Upington, 2022-11-18)

ONs is moeg daarvoor dat die munisipaliteit sy inwoners nie in ag neem nie. En verder dat die munisipaliteit die duur fasiliteite wat vir ontspanning opgerig is, laat tot niet gaan. Ons is moeg dat die ANC munisipaliteit in korrupsie ons geld wanbestuur.Jan Bekker (Upington, 2022-11-18)
