Trekking Outward
TREKKING OUTWARD A CHRONOLOGY OF MEETINGS BETWEEN SOUTH AFRICANS AND THE ANC IN EXILE 1983–2000 Michael Savage University of Cape Town May 2014 PREFACE In the decade preceding the dramatic February 1990 unbanning of South Africa’s black liberatory movements, many hundreds of concerned South Africans undertook to make contact with exile leaders of these organisations, travelling long distances to hold meetings in Europe or in independent African countries. Some of these “treks”, as they came to be called, were secret while others were highly publicised. The great majority of treks brought together South Africans from within South Africa and exile leaders of the African National Congress, and its close ally the South African Communist Party. Other treks involved meetings with the Pan Africanist Congress, the black consciousness movement, and the remnants of the Non-European Unity Movement in exile. This account focuses solely on the meetings involving the ANC alliance, which after February 1990 played a central role in negotiating with the white government of F.W. de Klerk and his National Party regime to bring about a new democratic order. Without the foundation of understanding established by the treks and thousands of hours of discussion and debate that they entailed, it seems unlikely that South Africa’s transition to democracy could have been as successfully negotiated as it was between 1990 and the first democratic election of April 1994. The following chronology focuses only on the meetings of internally based South Africans with the African National Congress (ANC) when in exile over the period 1983–1990. Well over 1 200 diverse South Africans drawn from a wide range of different groups in the non- governmental sector and cross-cutting political parties, language, educational, religious and community groups went on an outward mission to enter dialogue with the ANC in exile in a search to overcome the escalating conflict inside South Africa. -

Commission for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration
12 NOVEMBER 2018 – DAY 21 COMMISSION OF INQUIRY INTO STATE CAPTURE HELD AT PARKTOWN, JOHANNESBURG 10 21 NOVEMBER 2018 DAY 21 20 Page 1 of 124 12 NOVEMBER 2018 – DAY 21 PROCEEDINGS HELD ON 12 NOVEMBER 2018 CHAIRPERSON: Good morning Mr Pretorius. Good morning everybody. ADV PAUL PRETORIUS SC: Morning Chair. CHAIRPERSON: Thank you. ADV PAUL PRETORIUS SC: Today Ms Barbara Hogan will be led by Advocate Mokoena. CHAIRPERSON: Thank you. Before, Mr Mokoena before you do that, I just want to attend to one matter that I want to deal with and basically it relates to the media statement that the Commission issued on Thursday. I want to read this media 10 statement again and make an appeal to the public and to the media to please respect the processes of the Commission and to abide by the law. The statement reads: “Since the commencement of the public hearings of the Commission in August 2018, various sections of the media have disseminated and published contents of witnesses statements submitted to the Commission in connection with the inquiry the Commission before witnesses give evidence before the Commission and without the written permission of the Chairperson. The latest incident relates to the statement submitted to the 20 Commission by Minister Pravin Gordhan, Minister of Public Enterprises. The same thing also happened with the statement submitted to the Commission by former minister of Public Enterprises, Ms Barbara Hogan. Both minister Gordhan and Ms Hogan are yet to give evidence before the Commission. An investigation is to be conducted -
12 November 2018 Zondo Commission: Hogan Describes Zuma's Meddling in Transnet CEO Appointment It Was Siyabonga Gama Or Nothin
12 November 2018 Zondo Commission: Hogan describes Zuma’s meddling in Transnet CEO appointment It was Siyabonga Gama or nothing for former president Jacob Zuma, when in 2009 Transnet needed a new Group CEO (GCEO) following the departure of Maria Ramos. Public enterprises minister at the time, Barbara Hogan, had presented a different candidate to lead the state freight utility, but this recommendation was rejected on the spot by Zuma. Hogan wanted Sipho Maseko – who was GCEO of BP Southern Africa at the time, and had been recommended by the board of Transnet. Ramos left Transnet in February of that year, having served her notice since November of the previous year. The current public enterprises minister Pravin Gordhan had impressed the board as a candidate, but withdrew owing to his impending appointment as finance minister by Zuma. Transnet CFO Chris Wells was appointed to act in the GCEO position upon Ramos’s departure and the board set out on their new search. The months that followed, however, would be characterised by what Hogan described as undue pressure from Zuma to appoint Gama, and other senior politicians painting Gama as a victim of abuse of power by whites. Hogan was testifying at the commission of inquiry into state capture, which resumed its public hearings on Monday morning after a month’s break. Maseko, she told the inquiry, had been considered during a second look at candidates, after Gordhan had withdrawn from the process. All the necessary processes had been followed by the board to attain a suitable candidate, and rigorous assessments were run both internally and through an independent professional agency, and Maseko got a glowing report that Hogan then took to Zuma in June. -
Statement from Synod of Bishops
Statement from the Synod of Bishops of the Anglican Church of Southern Africa 'God has given us the ministry of reconciliation’ 2 Cor 5:18 We, the Bishops of the Anglican Church of Southern Africa, meeting at the Gonubie Hotel near East London in the Diocese of Grahamstown between 13 and 18 February 2016, wish to share our experience and reflections with the people of the Church. Archbishop Thabo Makgoba asked the Bishops on this occasion to arrive early for their synod in order to express their pastoral presence in the Diocese of Grahamstown and the dioceses of the Eastern Cape more widely. On Sunday 14 February the bishops were invited for refreshments at the guest house of the Premier of the Province of the Eastern Cape, Mr Phumulo Masualle, in King William's Town before embarking on a moving peace walk from the Good News Centre up the hill on the route taken by the marchers to Bisho stadium in 1992, when they were met by the then security forces and 28 were killed. Premier Masualle who was on the march of 1992 and came close to being killed, joined the bishops in the march, together with the mayor and other dignitaries and many Anglican Church groups in uniform. The Archbishop spoke briefly, apologising where the Anglican Church may have failed to act adequately in the past, and he and the Premier laid a wreath at the memorial. The bishops then proceeded into the stadium for a moral regeneration rally led by the MEC for Art, Culture, Sports and Recreation, Ms Penny Majodina, who is also a Methodist lay preacher (and it showed); here the Premier spoke powerfully about the need for moral renewal in the leadership of the nation. -

1 the South African National Defence Force Integration
1 The South African National Defence Force integration Thandi Modisei The history of South Africa is littered with conflicts – cultural, ethnic and racial. Different wars were fought during different eras, in different geographical spaces using different arms and systems. South Africa’s negotiated settlement took place over a period of time. Some people believe that the negotiations began with discussions between the African National Congress (ANS) leadership in prison and the South African government of the time as early as the late 1980s. The negotiated settlement has been under discussion and in the public domain since the early 1990s. We know that the armed forces of the two major political actors, the South African government and the ANC, became involved in direct and structured negotiations only in November 1993. Clearly, there was a ‘gap’ between the political and the military talks. The pace of the negotiations also tended to be slower and to ‘follow’ the political talks. There were two reasons for this ‘time gap’: º Both parties saw the retention of their armed forces as a ‘security fallback’, an asset necessary to appease their respective constituencies. º Retaining their armed capabilities was seen, in very pragmatic terms, as a physical guarantee that could be utilised should the negotiation process falter or fail. Considerable debate had preceded the formal military negotiations between the primary actors - the South African Defence Force (SADF) and Umkhonto we Sizwe (MK) - and the other armed forces present in South Africa at the time: the Azanian Peoples’ Liberation Army (APLA); the Transkei Defence Force (TDF); the Ciskei Defence Force (CDF); the Venda Defence Force (VDF) and the Bophuthatswana Defence Force (BDF). -
