Sustaining Consulting Engineering is

Key to Growing the Economy

CESA’s President, Abe Thela, has completed his round of Presidential visits for the year with his final visit
to the North West Province where he presented his 2014 theme of ‘Sustaining Consulting Engineering
is Key to Growing the Economy’. He stated that the National Development Plan (NDP) was created in
order to develop the South Africa’s economy. Government through the NDP has identified infrastructure
development as key to the socio economic development of the country. Thela believes that the NDP
and its objectives will never come to fruition unless there is involvement of consulting engineers at the
forefront of this development.
