Nalu uluvo Somlomo. [Here is an idea, hon Speaker.]
To quote from the National Development Plan:
We know what we do and how we do it is as important as what we want to achieve. What we are is because of who we have been and what we want to become.
The rural women, children and people with disabilities of Port St Johns in the Eastern Cape welcome the Women's Construction Flagship Project launched by the Minister at Caguba on Saturday, 11 February 2012. The sod-turning by the Minister was the precursor to the construction of the women's income- generating multipurpose centre. This also encompasses skills development projects, a children's park, recreational facilities and a memorial hall.
The broader community of Port St Johns acknowledges, in unison and with gratitude and humility, this initiative by the ANC-led government because it highlights and addresses the triple challenges of unemployment, poverty and inequality. This further epitomises the department's firm purpose to roll out various rural empowerment and development programmes targeting the governments' New Growth Path. The ANC applauds this ground-breaking enterprise.
