YCLlogo20 Young Communist League of South Africa:
Gert Sibande District, Mpumalanga Province Yearend Message - Let's have a Communist Party 30 December 2010 The 2010 calendar year has been an event filled year. For the most part this year will be remembered in the popular history of this country for the 2010 FIFA world cup. Let us put it on record that we believe that the FIFA world cup was an anti working class project that siphoned hard earned workers taxes to create a stage for the accumulation of profit for the neo imperialists at FIFA. The YCLSA would like to put emphasis on the events which the working class youth consider to be highlights for the year. * The periodic service delivery protests in Gert Sibande townships * The protracted public service strike * The 17th World Festival For Youth and Students * The 3rd National Congress of the Young Communist League of South Africa * The launch of the New Economic Growth Path Framework Conduct of Young People over Festive Period As a revolutionary youth organization, we take pride in challenging and changing social practices that perpetuate working class youth subjugation. The YCLSA would like to call on all young people in general, its members in particular to . Party responsibly and those who engage in the unfortunate anti-working class act of consuming alcohol to do so in moderation. . Under no circumstances drive under the influence of alcohol . Observe safe sexual practice It is our considered view that alcohol and drug abuse acts as the lubricant to domestic abuse, unprotected sex, reckless driving and more importantly irresponsible financial management as a result an enemy to the development of working class. Education is a Right not a Privilege We wait patiently for the results of the matric class of 2010, while we vehemently oppose the common practice of issuing IEB exams before others. Consistent with the drive by the Minister of Higher Education and General Secretary of the SACP, Cde Blade Nzimande, we encourage all those that do pass to pursue further educational opportunities especially at FET colleges. We caution young people not to be victims of bogus institutions that continue to steal from the working class in the name of affordability. The YCLSA will be embarking on the Joe Slovo Right to Learn Campaign in the New Year. We remain committed to the struggle for the provision of free quality education until the first degree level. Education is an essential cog in the struggle for the liberation of the working class from the yoke of systematic poverty created by the capitalist system. Many South Africans minds are preoccupied with the upcoming New Year celebrations. We caution all parents to spare funds that will be used to pay for the registration and school fess and school uniforms. Parents who are negligent in discharging their duties of ensuring that their children of school going age must be reminded that they are in contravention of the constitutional Bill of Rights and Childrens Act. Local Government Elections Conscious of the frustrations of many working class communities still face related to the delivery of basic services. Further conscious that there still exists a tiny rouge fraction of ANC members and deployees whose sole preoccupation is to use and misuse the ANC and access to the state for selfish reasons. Notwithstanding these facts, the YCLSA still believes that the ANC is still the best vehicle that can be used to achieve a democratic, just and prosperous. Noting this reality: The YCLSA will be: . Actively involved in the lobbying process to ensure that all corrupt and lazy incumbent councilors are not re-elected as ANC candidates . Support the implementation of a generational diverse candidate list . Mobilizing all its members to actively campaign for all democratically elected ANC candidates. The YCLSA also would like to wish all young people in Gert Sibande District a happy festive period and pleasurable celebrations.
