Your Say: Jennifer Grundy, Naracoorte An increase in population in our cities and towns begs the question, to what end? It seems to be governments, developers and city councils in particular that advocate such policies which do not necessarily align with the wishes of the general population, whose domain it is to determine such life changing decisions. The aim to fill the employment gap is not the answer because larger numbers of people require ever more services and a larger population will not guarantee a better or more prosperous nation. I suspect our leaders have succumbed to globalisation in all its aspects which is to the detriment of the way of life we have known and cherished and still desire for this country.
