Building a better South Africa in 2012
Happy New Year! 2012 is in full swing and it’s already looking jam-packed. As the Democratic Alliance continues to prove that we can govern, and that where we govern we can provide an Open Opportunity for all South Africans, it’s important that we continue the fight against corruption, poverty and crime as well as the many other issues that continue to plague our country today.
Join the international campaign against the Info Bill
London, [17 January 2011] – In December last year the first protest against the Protection of State Information Bill outside South Africa House in London saw over 100 South Africans, proudly dressed in their country’s colours, calling out against the secrecy bill, for more government transparency and an end to corruption. The response to this protest has inspired the event’s organisers to take the campaign global, and launch the international campaign against the Secrecy Bill called No To Secrecy.
2011 – A successful year for the DA Abroad
As another year draws to a close I’d like to reflect on the achievements of the DA Abroad in 2011 – it’s been a great year for us and it has all been thanks to you. Our successes have only been possible through your support, the support we’ve received from the Democratic Alliance at home and the energetic activities of our Organising Committee members and representatives around the world.
