development stakeholders will be better established.<br />

The chapter has also reviewed that politics has a tremendous effect on development. Other<br />

factors like culture, tradition, economic and psychological environments are also considered<br />

in this chapter. The economic and political relationships that underpin the dynamics between<br />

competencies, information and expertise, especially the sector departments, NGOs, the private<br />

sector, civic society and other community based organisations. This paves way for a holistic<br />

integrated and comprehensive approach to development <strong>of</strong> which the development <strong>of</strong> Ulundi<br />

is no exception.<br />
