EDITOR/ Sarah Terrazas FRONT COVER/ Children queuing for food at a SWAPOL feeding station in Swaziland. Many of the children SWAPOL helps have been orphaned by HIV/AIDS or are themselves infected. CREDIT / David Taylor LAYOUT/ Do Good Advertising ADDRESS/ Action for Southern Africa 231 Vauxhall Bridge Road London EMAIL/ SW1V 1EH [email protected] TEL/ WEBSITE/ 020 3263 2001 www.actsa.org note from the editor WELCOME TO THE FINAL EDITION OF ACTSA NEWS FOR 2010. As plans get underway for 2011, we look back on a busy year. As expected, all eyes were on South Africa over the summer. In this issue we reflect on the positive effect the World Cup could have for development in southern Africa, and our plans to build on what was achieved. We are grateful to Aaron Mokoena, captain of the South African football team, for granting us an exclusive interview. In it, he talks about his impressions of the World Cup and its legacy for his country, and the work of his foundation, which helps children in South Africa participate in football. Our focus for this issue of ACTSA News is Swaziland. ACTSA has long been campaigning for democracy in Africa’s only absolute monarchy, and on page six we look at how a decline in rights and democracy in the country is compounded by a growing economic crisis. In October we were delighted to host a visit from Stephen Lewis, who spoke at our conference on gender and development in southern Africa which followed the ACTSA AGM.

  • Q & a with Mzonke Fana
    Q & A with Mzonke Fana Recently Mzonke “The Rose of Khayelitsha” Fana 30-4(12) won the IBF Super Featherweight title for a second time when he beat countryman and former nemesis Cassius Baloyi. It was a rematch from 2008 when Baloyi won, this time Fana got off to a better start and won convincingly. Over the past few years the South African quartet of Fana, Baloyi & Malcolm Klassen have all taken turns in holding the IBF title. With the win over Baloyi, Fana hopes that he can fight Klassen and repeat his previous victory in what would be a big fight in South Africa. At 37 Fana is a 16 year veteran at 130 and is considered the number 1 Super Featherweight by many including The Ring magazine & Boxrec. Here’s what Fana had to say when 15rounds.com recently spoke to him. Hello Mzonke, welcome to 15rounds.com Thank you! Nice to talk to your reputable website for the first time! Anson Wainwright – Congratulations on your recent win over Cassius Baloyi for the vacant IBF Super Featherweight title. What can you tell us about that fight? How happy were you with your performance? Mzonke Fana – I was very happy about my performance. This was the second time I fought Cassius. In our first fight two years ago, somehow I started “too late” and give away first 5 rounds. On the end, I lost my IBF title on majority decision. I could not afford the same again, so I started putting pressure from the opening bell and maintain it in all 12 rounds.
