Wow! Was not expecting that!

In QLD were lucky to have local businesses and governments. I sure hope CDC making their presence known in Queensland isnt going to change anything!

Buslink was hardly a Qld business. The previous owners were Hannans from Darwin with some operations previously part owned by the Lucas family from Victoria. CDC took over the Hannans interests and the Lucas family withdrew from the partnership to focus on their original operations in Vic and SA.

Here’s some clarification regarding my original comment.

I was referring mainly to CDC making their presence known in QLD, and the comment about businesses was generalised. 🙂
