Communication
Sorry JStrike. Nothing in a different country is more important than the **** going on here.
I have several problems with Mbeki and his leadership style, but the foremost problem: he hardly ever communicates with South Africans. How about telling us about his immensely frequent out of the country trips? He is not the only person in the world brokering peace deals. He should spend some more time in South Africa where he is the ****ing leader.
Edit: he is the leader of the country, he should at least act the damned part.
To certain extent I must agree with JontyB.
President Mbeki doesn't talk enough to the people.
If we understood what all the trips were about for a start.
Why should we have to read everything in retrospect in a newspaper or on TV after the fact?
I know this is not the USA, but George Bush and his Government have better communication with it's people through The Media answering questions.
Ask any Councillor be he/she Guidance or Marriage that Communication is the key to any successful relationship.
I know President Mbeki is capable, but are many of his colleagues?
People will quickly hide behind ignorance and put on a front. I think this is very much the case with Minister Ivy in her portfolio.
It is easier to pass the buck or pretend to be working and when asked anything do the usual duck and dive. Our Local Municipality Officials are fond of this as they are merely disguising their ignorance as they probably don't know their @ss from their elbow anyway.
