Thank you, hon Koornhof. There are a number of efforts that would have to be made in order for us to ensure that this vision of creating a nonracial society in our country is realised. Key among these are improving the education system -ensuring that we give access to education institutions, and ensuring that all of our messages, including the secondary messages, do not undermine this effort of attaining a nonracial society.
Through word and deed we must always be communicating the message that it is important for all of us to contribute towards the creation of a nonracial society. This is because many people in our country tend to emphasise points of difference, rather than the areas that bring us together as a people.
The richness in our diverse backgrounds and cultures is a strength that we must all appreciate and build on, rather than emphasise that we are different groups, we are different people with different interests, and so on. I think this requires an all-round ongoing effort because those who are conservative, and want to hang on to the past, will also latch on to opportunities, from time to time, to try to divide. But if those of us who have access to public platforms can utilise these platforms to communicate this message, I believe we will be able to succeed or to lay down a foundation, at least, for a truly nonracial society to be created in our country. Thank you.
