PAYCO appreciates the contribution ,especially the suggestions made. We also acknowledge the constructive criticisms made. Despite all the good things reflected on the contribution allow me to analyze and correct some misconceptions that may be damaging to PAYCO and mislead those who are observing our activities from a distance: I agree that our national presence is not at its best,it needs serious attention.
With correct tools of political analysis you would realize that it was highly impossible for PAYCO to occupy any serious political space in the South African political arena in the last five years or so, since the national psyche of people had been conditioned and enticed with the anc internal power struggles. The media was embedded with the Mbeki camp or the Zuma camp and currently the focus is gradually shifting to 2012. Again It should be noted as well that our participation on political activities is on ad hoc basis, as we spend the better part of our time on our paying jobs and start participating in politics after work or during weekends, in contrast to our rivals who spend all their working days and weekends on politics as they are employed full time to do political work. This factor is so important as it determines our effectiveness to respond timeously on urgent political issues as they happen. PAYCO has no office or a full-time office bearer, this is the handicap. Under normal circumstances the motherbody is suppose to create political space for its structure at a national level, but this is not happening currently. Problems within the party also affect our national standing. The leadership standing in the PAC affect PAYCO's national presence. The existence of the so called PAC youth league has affected PAYCO national standing as well. Lack of financial means have also crippled some of our plans that might have given us national prominence. PAYCO should be having its budget from the PAC, but that is not the case. Remember its programs not media statements that make a lasting impact on the minds of our people about a party and its activities. But despite all these short falls we have made remarkable achievements in a very short space of time, I will not dwell on them as MAfrica Mmbara has already elaborated on them. Majoni in PAYCO we are pleased by your support and contributions in building our revolutionary party. We continue to be inspired and motivated by leaders of your calibre and conviction. We promise to consider your suggestions and to consult you in our march to build a strong PAYCO and PAC. Izwe Lethu!!!
