The Bo-Kaap Ratepayers Association is calling for regulation of the tourism industry in the area, saying that outsiders are exploiting their area to make money.

Vice-chairperson Ebrahim Christian told Heart FM News that unrestricted tourism is disrupting their lives and inconveniencing locals.

Christian explains the type of regulation they would like to see.

The calls come as the Mother City braces for an enormous influx of foreign tourists over the festive season.
