Taking advantage of the extended long weekend, visitors from far and wide headed to the sunny coastal town of Amanzimtoti for the 60th edition of the popular Highland Gathering. On Saturday, 29 April, the town was turned out in tartan as bagpipers, dancers, musicians, and more, brought a taste of Scotland to the KZN South Coast. This annual event, which is supported by Sapphire Coast Tourism and hosted by the Amanzimtoti Lions Club, is an necessary fundraiser for many local charity initiatives, with this year’s crowds bringing in welcome contributions to these worthwhile causes. In celebration of the historic 60th year, popular ECR DJ Dave Guselli oversaw the day’s many exciting displays and features, with Durban Tourism providing the Durban Ricksha Bus to give visitors a free hop-on hop-off tour of Amanzimtoti. The Highland Gathering and long weekend also allowed visitors to explore the Sapphire Coast’s many tourist highlights including recreational beaches, world-renowned dive site, Aliwal Shoal, as well as extensive trails and picnic spots.

  1. According to Sprout research, 89% of business executives agree companies that don’t invest in social media marketing will be left behind.

  2. Ironically – considering how much of our work involves maintaining and improving reputations – PR doesn\’t always have the best rep when it comes to ethics. Some people, because of bad things that they\’ve done in the past, have even been called propagandists. But there\’s a big ethical difference between real PR and simple propaganda, and here it is: PR is always solidly rooted in fact.

Edward Bernays believes in the mutual understanding of the professional and the profession to foster better terms of performance and success and thus quotes, “The counsel on Public Relations is not an advertising man but he advocates for advertising where that is indicated. Very often he is called in by an advertising agency to supplement its work on behalf of a client. His work and that of the advertising agency do not conflict with or duplicate each other.”
