<P ALIGN=LEFT><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT COLOR="#000000" SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Our magazine reaches around 8 000 readers, so this really is an ideal opportunity to showcase interesting civil engineering projects in Gauteng, and/or happenings within your Branch, for the rest of the country to see. Although the main feature in the September magazine will be transportation engineering (see attached features list), you are most welcome to report on any interesting civil engineering projects in Gauteng. </FONT></SPAN></P>
<P ALIGN=LEFT><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT COLOR="#000000" SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Please send your contributions directly to me (contact details below) as I will be taking over as editor from the beginning of July. Attached please find a rough template that you may use as a guide when preparing articles, should you perhaps have a need for that. You are also most welcome to contact me with any other queries that you may have regarding the September issue.</FONT></SPAN></P>

These languages are also rotated as sub-title on the cover. Should one of these languages happen to be your mother tongue, you are most welcome to send us articles in that language, together with a synopsis in English of approximately 25% of the length of the article. These articles need not necessarily be technical - they could have a history-and-heritage flavour (e.g. how things were when you were a child and how civil engineering has changed that), or why you chose civil engineering as a career, or anything interesting and relevant to the civil engineering environment that you would like to share with readers in your mother tongue.</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"><B></B></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"><B> <FONT COLOR="#000000" SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">The September magazine will be featuring IsiNdebele. </FONT></B></SPAN></P>
