A work as a planner

I have finally started working as a planner for one of the departments at the federal government in Zambia this week.
It has been going great as my colleagues there are really nice and seem to be quite serious about their work as planners.
I am enjoying me work there because they treat me as a expert of urban planning and GIS.
Because of their high expectation, though, I feel the work I have to / am expected to do is quite challenging.
So far, I am in charge of three things; help complete the integrated development plans for the two districts in the province, manage the GIS database for the province, and help the planners the work related to the planning permission.
The job here is exactly what I wanted to do since I always wanted to work as a planner for a government in a developing country.
I am looking forward to working for the department for the next two years.
