- About my work:
- In South Africa the government assist the automotive trade with a rebate called MIDP (Motor Industry Development Program). The rebate is applicable to all export components, tooling and vehicles. We do the claims on behalf of the exporter on an outsource basis. We also do the certificates to prove the imported content of the product which is exported. This forms part of the MIDP claim calculations.
We also assist SME's with import and export documentation and administration.

- Dear Reinette,
likewise, apologies for the delayed reply.
We returned from our honeymoon on the 3rd June & are now back at work.
Thank you so much for sharing your very moving story with me.
We are going to Uganda at the end of July with a film-maker friend (who actually previously filmed in Zimbabwe).
I'm still catching up with work so please forgive me for not writing more right now. I'll write again soon and hopefully do some postings on this site here of our experiences meeting with Israeli & Arab women in the Middle East, on our honeymoon.
I'm not sure which page you had trouble opening?
But if you'd like to join our Women for a Change community you'd be most very welcome. I hope this link works.
I know everyone there would be also be very moved & inspired to read of your wonderful work in Zimbabwe, it's always so good to know that there are people like you, and also to read how we can open our hearts to each other and do something to help.
Warmest wishes,
Chris
