Station Managers of the following stations: Emalahleni FM, Barberton FM,
Bushbuckridge FM and Kanyamazane FM with the provisio that other members stations
will be pursued when the idea kicks off the ground. A membership of R500,00 per

2013 was officially registered with the South African Company Registra as CC
Registration Number 2013/175767/08 and our Income Tax Number is 9623609162. The
interim structure led the hub until 2014, where an election was conducted by the
Chairperson of NCRF Mr Kikine, in Lydenburg at Mashishing Thusong Center, where the
all stations were represented by the station managers and board members. Since the
establishment the hub meets regularly and we also conducted our strategic conferece
where we adopted the principal rule of the hub Constitution and an Operational Plan
