Letter to the Editor

Norm Wilton (Magnet 14/2) says plantations are not the answer. He says “shifting entirely to plantation timber is all well and good to say, but there’s not enough land available” but goes on the say that Bombala would be nothing without Dongwha (the 100% plantation based mill at Bombala), saying “take Dongwha out and Bombala would be a ghost town.”

Make up your mind, Norm!
