It's a pleasure to receive feedback from these newsletters. After April's issue a question was asked about the use of the phrase "eradicate affluence" and here's a reply:
...at a recent Make Poverty History meeting the organizer mentioned a fund raising event at Western University. The young folks there were talking about the concept of "Make Affluence History" which seems an interesting twist of ideas....
...in the context of Swaziland, the king has since the early 1990s made public statements about how he would "eradicate poverty in Swaziland this year". He is a fool and a huge part of all the social, health, & education issues in Sd; yet owns millions of dollars worth of cars, palaces.....
The phrase was used to provoke thought and discussion. Thanks for your comments.
Yesterday the Prime Minister returned to Sd after seeking funds from Europe. How long will Europe continue to aid and abet Mswati's exclusively narrow government?
