- Description
- Region D is one of the eight so-called development regions created in terms of a regional development strategy mapped out by the South African government in a White Paper of 1982. The region essentially consists of the Eastern Cape Province, the Border corridor, and the nominally 'independent' homelands of Ciskei and Transkei (southern part) stretching from Uniondale in the west, to Middelburg in the north and Umtata in the east. There is clearly a need to develop a data base for this region especially as it has been afforded priority status in terms of the new regional development policy. The purpose of this Working Paper is therefore to provide a statistical profile of Region D, distinguishing where possible between various sub-regions within Region D and between Region D and the rest of South Africa.
