Thank you. It is true that South Africa is sharing a much bigger burden. In fact, South Africa has almost the same number of people applying for refugee status as that of the entire 27 member states of the European Union. These are the statistics for 2009. So, you can see that because we have not been strictly applying this definition we have also attracted refugees that come from across the seas who are not really supposed to apply for refugee status here, because they should have applied in the first safe country.
We have seen recently that a lot of people who apply for refugee status come legally in aeroplanes to our neighbouring states. Later they cross illegally into South Africa and apply for asylum. Clearly, those people are not true asylum seekers.
We are, indeed, engaging in discussions. We have had discussions with Lesotho previously. We have had discussions recently with Mozambique, and we intend having discussions with all our neighbours. In the end, we would like to take this to the Southern African Development Community, SADC, arena so that SADC as a region can discuss this matter. This is because we indeed have an enormous burden as South Africa. Thank you.
