Twenty years ago we South Africans did something truly exceptional.
We succeeded – after centuries of division – to plant in the hard soil of Africa a tender young sapling. It was our new Constitution which took root exactly twenty years ago on 27 April 1994.
The preamble to the Constitution sets out succinctly the goals that public leaders should strive to achieve.
I would like to welcome all of you to this the fifth annual conference of the FW de Klerk Foundation. Our conference this year takes place a few days before the 24th anniversary of the commencement of our transformation process on 2 February 1990 and in the 20th anniversary year of the new society that emerged from that process.
