STATEMENT ON WINNIE MADIKIZELA-MANDELA
The FW de Klerk Foundation was shocked to hear the news of Winnie Madikizela-Mandela’s death. She was one of the dominant figures over the last 20 or 30 years in South Africa and was regarded by the ANC as the Mother of the Nation. Winnie Madikizela-Mandela was larger than life. She was always outspoken, sometimes controversial and will be much missed by her followers and by her friends.
The FW de Klerk Foundation would like to convey their condolences to her family and friends.

In a speech on 24 March in Cernobbio, Italy, FW de Klerk said that during the past 24 years South Africa had unfortunately been moving further and further away from the ideal of cultural, religious and language diversity. He called on the international community to do much more to define and protect the rights of cultural, ethnic and religious minorities throughout the world.
De Klerk was addressing the International Forum on Market Leaders and Scenarios for the 21st Century on “The Accommodation of Cultural, Religious and Ethnic Diversity: A Core Challenge for the South Africa, for Europe and for the World.”
He said that South Africa had plenty of experience in managing – and mismanaging – diversity.
