This calls for a 'protest action' similar to that against Barack Hussein Obama
or Barack Hussein bin Ladin or Saddam Hussein Obama.

Anyone with concrete details of Hollande "Prince of Oranje".

Subject: [YCLSA Discussion] President Zuma to Host President Hollande for 
Two-Day State Visit




The Presidency, Pretoria, 10 October 2013


President Zuma to Host President Hollande on a Two-Day State Visit


The President of the Republic of South Africa, His Excellency Mr Jacob Zuma 
will receive his French counterpart, His Excellency Mr François Hollande, 
President of the Republic of France, who will be in South Africa on a two-day 
State Visit scheduled for 14-15 October 2013 in Pretoria.

President Hollande's visit to South Africa is his first as Socialist Party 
Leader and President of France.  Since his election, President Hollande has met 
with President Zuma on several occasions on the margins of multilateral 
meetings; and exchanged ideas on pertinent bilateral, regional and multilateral 
issues of mutual concern.

France is South Africa's strategic partner. Bilateral relations between the two 
countries are coordinated through the annual Forum for Political Dialogue 
(FPD), co-chaired by the respective Directors-General of International 
Relations and Cooperation. The last session of the FPD took place on 26 June 
2013 in Paris and reflected on bilateral, regional and global developments. 
Similarly, the Ministers of International Relations and Cooperation engage 
regularly.

Cooperation between the two countries cuts across a broad spectrum of areas. 
There is on-going and deepening collaboration in such areas as defence, 
development cooperation, science and technology, arts and culture, energy and 
agriculture. France is a key development partner for South Africa. During 
President Zuma's State Visit to France in March 2011, the New Framework 
Partnership Agreement 2011-2013, was signed to the value of R10 billion that 
comprises loans and aid.

France is South Africa's third largest trading and investment partner within 
the European Union. A number of French public and private companies have made 
significant investments in South Africa. Between the period 2004-2012 
investments worth R15 billion by French companies were recorded, creating 
significant job opportunities.  A highlight of the visit is the South 
Africa-France Business Forum that will afford the respective business 
communities an opportunity to take advantage of the growing bilateral economic 
relations and to explore further opportunities.

Tourism flows from France to South Africa continue to grow. In 2012, 122 000 
French tourists visited South Africa, representing a 16% increase compared to 
the previous year's figure. The South Africa-France Season Seasons of Culture, 
which is currently on-going in France present further prospects for growth in 
the tourism sector.

The Seasons of Culture project is aimed at strengthening the political, 
cultural and economic ties between the two countries that covers a wide range 
of fields, including culture, trade and investment, science and technology, and 
tourism. The French Season was held in South Africa from June to November 2012. 
The South African Season in France was launched in May 2013 in Paris and ends 
in December 2013.

During the course of the Visit a number of agreements and declarations of 
intent will be signed in different areas of cooperation, signalling expansion 
in the bilateral relationship. The signing of these agreements will spur 
cooperation in such areas as energy, maritime, agriculture, transport 
infrastructure.
