DIE NUWE FORMAAT VAN HIERDIE TYDSKRIF Soos meeste van ons gereelde lesers bewus is, het ons vanaf begin Januarie 2024 migreer vanaf ‘n A4 .pdf uitgawe na ons eie e-joernaal (Blog) op ons web-werf, www.nongqai.org. Hierdie e-joernaal word deurlopend gelaai met nuwe artikels, wat u dadelik kan lees (dus, u hoef nie meer te wag tot die einde van die maand, om dan met ‘n massa leeswerk oorval te word nie). Beste van alles, in die nuwe digitale formaat kan u u tydskrif nou gerieflik lees op welke apparaat u mag gebruik. Maak nie saak of dit ‘n slim-foon is, tablet of skoot-rekenaar nie, die nuwe formaat pas self outomaties aan en verseker dat dit maklik leesbaar op u skerm aangebied word. Ons wil egter voortgaan om op ons ou gevestigde platform ISSUU te publiseer. Hierdie uitgawe is ‘n samevatting van al die artikels wat in die afgelope maand op ons BLOG verskyn het. Om te voldoen aan ISSUU se nuwe lengte-beperkinge, kan ons dit nie meer volledig hier vir u reproduseer nie. Ons bied u egter die beste van beide wêrelde, deurdat u hierin die individuele skakels vind na elk van daardie artikels. Die opskrifte wat u dus in die “Inhoudsopgaaf” sien, is in werklikheid ‘n skakel waarop u net maar hoef te kliek, om daardie spesifieke artikel op u skerm te laat oopmaak – maklik leesbaar in digitale formaat. Geniet, en stuur asb vir ons u bydraes en foto’s vir plasing!

THE NEW FORMAT OF OUR MAGAZINE As most of our regular readers are aware, from the beginning of January 2024 we migrated from an A4 .pdf edition to our own e-journal (Blog) on our website, www.nongqai.org. New posts are continuously uploaded on the BLOG, which you can read immediately (you no longer have to wait until the end of the month and be overwhelmed by a mass of reading material). Best of all, in the new digital format you can now conveniently read your magazine on whatever device you may be using. It doesn't matter if it's a smartphone, tablet or laptop, the new format automatically adjusts itself and ensures that it's presented on your screen in an easy-to-read manner. However, we want to continue publishing on our old established platform ISSUU. This “ISSUU issue” is in fact a summary of all the articles that appeared on our BLOG in the past month. To comply with ISSUU's new length restrictions, we can no longer reproduce it here in full for you. However, we offer you the best of both worlds, in that you find here the individual links to each of those articles. So, each of the headings you see in the "Table of Contents" is actually a link which you simply need to click on, to open that particular article on your screen - easily readable in digital format. Enjoy, and please send us your contributions and photos for posting!
