Revolutionary greetings,
Mr Moloto, I want to take this opportunity and address some of the issues you made about PAYCO, party membership and party building. * Base and Departure First and foremost what is key and critical is to accept and identify with the PAC vision,its ideology,policies,objectives,constitution and its disciplinary code. As PAYCO members we identify and accept these fundamental and founding principles of our revolutionary party. To us PAC is the Alpha and Omega in fighting neo-colonialism,capitalism and other forms of oppressive systems in Azania. PAC is the only party that can truly bring about complete independence of our people and lead them to economic,social and cultural emancipation,hence despite all the differences we have with different people and inspite of the attacks and insults we have endured in the party we remain steadfast and never shunned this movement. We believe it is our historical duty to advance the ideology,mission,and policies of the PAC. We are also duty bound to defend the glorious history of the movement and defend the legacy of our founding fathers and sacrifices of Poqo/APLA cdes with our dear lifes and dignity. *members in good standing I am certain that a majority of PAYCO members if not all are PAC members. Every person who clain to be PAC is a matter of fact and reality that he/she has joined PAC at one stage,therefore allows that member all the rights to claim to be PAC. You join PAC or any political party once. The payment of yearly subscriptions is an administrative and organisational matter. A man who joined PAC in 1959 and the one who joined in 2008 are PAC members whether they payed their subscription or not. Let me remind you Mr Moloto,that PAC annual subscription fee is just R10. You cannot believe the amount of money some of us we spend on monthly basis on PAC activities. I come from Newcastle Region,KwaZulu Natal,Branch 21(ward21). I pay my subscriptions yearly and also contribute R100 monthly to finance branch activities.In 2007 My branch and 7 other branches in the region submitted their Membership forms and deposited money on party account to be issued party membership cards and never received even a single membership card. Branches in my region resolved to withhold all the subscription fees in the branches concerned until we receive our cards for 2007. In some instances we were forced to repay comrades from our pockets as cards were not coming forth to avoid conflicts and mistrust to the party. I was told that mine was not to be processed as I was guilty of bringing the name of the party into disrepute,but why were my comrades denied their cards as well for my "sins". Despite being regarded unfit to be PAC members Mphahlele and company were ready to receive our debit orders on monthly basis. We decided to cancel those monthly debit orders of R100 a month after seeing that our monies were being used to destroy the very party we wanted to assist. You know why PAC has always been able to survive all the storms for the past 50years and why is still going to survive the next 50 years is because it has die-hard membership that cannot be wethered easily by any storm,secondly it is because it has been able to attract radical youth,almost 80% of PAC members are young people,which makes the party sustainable. It is unfortunate that these die-hards and radical youth are being harrassed in the party they serve with conviction. *Branch Mass-based Programme The PAC is a mass based party, that means it must leave among the people,fight the battles of the people,together with the people it must find solututions to the challenges facing our people. Nyathi Pokela put it better"PAC is the people,the People are PAC". The branches I come from in Newcastle region have been involve and continue to be involve on a number of struggles driven by our Regional Programme of Action. I would tabulate some for your information: 1. We have led 3 land invasions which has led to the homeless people of our Town to be afforded residential sides,RDP houses,sanitation and clean tap water. This campaign was led by PAYCO leaership in the Branch and gave glory to the party,PAC. 2.We have been mobilizing and leading the local community of Madadeni and Osizweni against exorbitant rates charged by council. 3.We have succeeded to force council not to charge the elderly and poor households rates. 4. We were party and playing a leading role in the establishment of the Local Radio Station. I was the first Chief Operations Officer for the Local Radio. PAC/PAYCO is able to articulate its views freely on that radio station. 5. We lead key structures in the Community like Newcastle East Peoples Convention(civic body) , Umsinsi Social movement(advocacy group for rural people) and Madadeni Development Forum 6.We have organised and led about 6 marches in the area since 2006.I mean marches that receive overwhelming support from the community. 7.We have been leading students struggles in High Schools and FET colleges.The following comrades have been hands on,Thulani Khumalo,Nkosinathi Ndlangisa and Mzandile Mthembu. We have led demonstrations and able to have our comrades lead SRC's in the 4 FET's we have here. 8. We have been leading the struggle of the unemployed through NUFO a forum for the unemployed led by cde Batho Makhubo. 9. We have been able even to lead COSATU aligned unions like SAMWU and NUM. 10. We are involve in propaganda campaign through two organisations,Kwame Nkrumah Institute for Pan Africa Ideological Studies led by Simanaye Madlala and Marcus Garvey Society led by Batho Makhubo. I can go on and on, on the the mass based issues we are involve in under the leadership of the following comrades,Vusumuzi Dlamini,Mphathiswa Dyasi,Tom Dladla,Vusi Manana,Velaphi Mtshali and Rogers Mthethwa. Ofcourse as the youth we have taken over and we are leading branches and structures under the guidance of these comrades. We don't just talk about mass based politics and programme of action,we know these things and have been involve in planning,organising and executing successful campaigns and projects. With the benefit of hindsight sometime we realise the dangers and risks we have involve ourselves with for the love of our people and PAC. It is unfortunate to realise that we stood a chance of being arrested,shot at and worst to be disowned by the party we worked for with conviction and distinction. I am certain different comrades and branches would tell even worst tales than the one I have given. We have served,suffered and sacrificed for this party hence we remain steadfast. I want to believe comrades would begin to understand how much pain we endure everytime we are told we are not PAC,we are CIA agents and insulted by those who have failed our revolutionary party. We assure you cdes that we would not be deterred nor bullied out of the PAC by no one. We might have not gone for military training but we are ready to die in the PAC than outside PAC. *Infiltration and party building I will expand on this in detail in the comming few days Yours for a classless society cde Kwame Ndebele PAYCO Secretary General > > Comrades there is one fundemental principle here that serve as the base and > depature point.organisational discipline.are you a member of the pac in good > standinding?do you belong to an established branch of the party?does you branch have a massbased programme?in the party building department of the > party this is what we use to seek to understand indiviual comrades trying > to > occupy a political space under the banner of the pac.this approach is helping us to identify opportunists and genuine comrades with good intention.we must also acknolegde that our party was and is still is highly > inflitrated and that some of the people are making their living for disrupting and bringing the state of disorder in the pac.this people will > never submit themselves to the party discipline or meet the above mentioned > conditions.that is where everybody must start.in rebuilding the party we help the party structures to meet this requirements.there are common features of agents,they come from no branch of the party.they respect no structure and want to lead any grouping which is unstructural,critical but > does absolutetly nothing.i am sure you will learn something from this so as > to identify your friends and your enemies.if the party enemy is your friend > there is something wrong with you. > > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of > [email protected] > Sent: Monday, October 12, 2009 9:11 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: [Fwd: [PAYCO] BY - ELECTIONS IN GAUTENG PROVINCE (MOGALE CITY - KRUGERSDORP) & Westonaria] > > > Greetings comrade Masoga, > > I was pleased to see your contribution after a while,your love for PAC and > commitment in seeing the PAC making a significant impact in the lives of our > people is appreciated.
