I am currently busy with exams me too, but through my email and the email from YCLSA are a bit too much, they are blocking and delaying my emails.BUT I will raise this issue: "What initiatives/programs they have in mind which can drive every tertiary community to reliase that Stuggle of 1976 is not over but is continuing. In fact today's struggle is complex than before. why? 1976 was a dominated by racial struggle where the enermy was WHITE AGAINST BLACK, parties involved was identifyable. Today's struggle is no longer racial but is a class struggle, the ernemy is between the working class(poorest of the poor) and the Capitalist class(owners of means of production) class struggle is complex hence it involved all races hence Capitalist class is dominated by White and small of Blacks, Indians, Colored. Now how are u going to clearly determine the ernemy bcos Black people whom were fighting apartheid system are part of Capitalist class such as Sexual, Mbeki etc. The apartheid liberation liberated us political not economical, now we need a new regim which will lead us to gain economical power all people even from the peripheral areas where they will actively participate in the economy. But the system we need( in SA) now is the system which will eradicates class differences. A society where people shall share the ANC with it principles and policies will never champion that but we need to transfrom and nuetralise those policies to be more of a socialism policies. The struggle for Socialism is complex in it nature, it requires Maxist students for penetration under the COMMUNIST institutions such as YOUNG COMMUNIT LEAGUE. In the national parliament I want young people like Mbalula, Malema being ministers and as the youth we must swell the ranks of the ANC so we can bring transformatiom as the youth of 1976 did.

From: Siphiwe Mbatha <[email protected]> To: SACP <[email protected]> Sent: Wed, October 28, 2009 11:05:55 AM Subject: [YCLSA Discussion] NYDA should consider the uneducated, and unemployed, primarily Comrades The NYDA is only a meagre apparition in the stage of discrimination against black empowerment for all affected persons. Although the Youth of South Africa is the main target of this programme, I think the net should be cast even wider to include 'adult youth' (those who are between 35 and 40 years), and there is nothing wrong with this. There is precedence. Peter Mokaba was an 'adult youth', and led the ANCYL at the ripe age, above 35. Fikile Mbalula relinquished his position beyond 35. There are others. Anthony (Anton) Lembede held the executive position at 32 years of age in 1944, and became seconded to the National Executive Committe. He died at 33, unfortunately. He could have done more. Had he not been seconded to the NEC, which ferments fertile ground for possible succession into the National Executive Committee fold. Could he have stayed on like the two aforesaid gentlemen. Probably, yes. Why? People who have aqcuired experience and knowledge about the functions of, and operations in the leadership possess quality traits that must not be shed quickly. This does not promote fossilisation, but seek to encourage cumulative sharing of ideas with the sprouting cadre, which neccesitates age restriction in relation to position and power. It is myopic, then, to consider the empowerement of Blacks in segments. This duty should not be a preserve of people between 18 and 35 years old, only, for the emancipation of young adults. It is only fifteen year since the democratic dispensation. For too long, all black people did not have empowerment opportunities. A person who was born in 1979 turned 15 in 1994, and fairly, finished Grade 12 in 1997 at 18. University called for four years, and in 2001 he gets employment at 23, and this may be a testament for the very few. The majority remain unepmloyed, uneducated, and grossly poor. At 33, this person would have had ten years of working life, and this suffices a middle class lifestyle, on one hand. At 35, he is established and stable in his life. On the other hand, we have a plethora of problems that ravage our country socially, and they are known to us all. The NYDA should focus on people who never had opprtunities that reflect those of our illusory subject. However, the case is a contrast. People who lead, and benefit from youth programmes are those that have had it good in life, and continue to suck us more. The erstwhile Umsobomvu and its twin receieved news coverage for wrong reasons for the entire tenure of their existence. Young people continued to suffer in their presence. Adult youth remain the most deprived, today. They are deprived for being old, unemployed, non-eligible to receive suppport from the NYDA, and heplless. Attempts to create a survival net for these forgotten comrades pose a danger for us all. They are the ones who made the country ungovernable during apartheid, and most lost education opportunities, by default. Some of whose parents died and lost jobs in support of the struggle for this country, and for the establishment of ventures such as the NYDA. These people are the precurssors of our development, and we know this, and do not do anything to accomodate them in our fold as young professionals, and choose to sideline them. They are comrades in the true sense. We know them for throwing stones at the police and the SADF soldiers while we grow up, yet we shun them. People who were born between 1965 and 1976 form the bulk of the people who waged the struggle in the prescient 1980's, and they are many, and they are unemployed. However, the NYDA cater for only the 35 years old, and under. What should happen to these people?

The road-shows are part of the processes of popularizing the NYDA and outlining its 8 key performance areas namely Economic Participation, Education and Skills Development, Effective and Efficient Resources Management, Information Services and Communication, National Youth Service, Policy, Lobby and Advocacy, Research, Monitoring and Evaluation and Social Cohesion. During the road-shows Lungisa will meet with strategic stakeholders in the youth development sector including Premiers, government and municipality officials, traditional leaders and civil society organizations. He will take this time to outline to the different stakeholders the process towards the establishment of the NYDA provincial chapters. "It is fundamentally important that we go to provinces to sell the vision of the NYDA, outline our strategic direction and receive inputs from different key role-players, where necessary as the success of our work will depend on their support." says Lungisa. He says since the merger of the National Youth Commission and Umsobomvu Youth Fund to form the NYDA, a number of provinces have moved to repeal the Acts that established the Provincial Youth Commission (PYCs). "It will not be an ideal situation to create a vacuum at that level, provinces are an important tier of the structure of government, so we also want to move with speed in closing that gap," says Lungisa. Further to that the NYDA is planning to establish local NYDA offices in all the 283 municipalities in the country to ensure accessibility to young people. Lungisa says unlike in the past, the NYDA will ensure that young people do not walk more than 50 kilometers to access NYDA services. "We will also have mobile offices to reach even the most remote rural areas. During our provincial visits we will outline all these processes to our provincial and local counterparts," concludes Lungisa. During the road-shows Lungisa will be accompanied by other NYDA Board members; they will also visit projects run by young people including National Youth Service (NYS) projects. This forms part of the first phase of the NYDA's provincial visits and will be followed by Izimbizo where the NYDA will meet young people. Details of the visits are as follows: 22 to 23 October 2009 Eastern Cape 26 to 27 October 2009 Northern Cape 28 to 29 October 2009 Free State 30 to 31 October 2009 North West 02 to 03 October 2009 Limpopo 04 to 05 November 2009 Mpumalanga 06 to 07 November 2009 Gauteng 09 to 10 November 2009 KwaZulu Natal 11 to 12 November 2009 Western Cape FOR MORE DETAILS CONTACT: Siyabonga Magadla Refilwe Mphane National Youth Development Agency National Youth Development Agency 083 686 9016 084 308 5860 [email protected] ( http://us.mc543.mail.yahoo.com/mc/[email protected] ) [email protected] ( http://us.mc543.mail.yahoo.com/mc/[email protected] ) ( http://www.youthportal.org.za/ ) Cell:0835794136 Fax:0406391877 Volkswagen of South Africa (Pty) Ltd.
