Here, he addresses the violence and disorder in South Africa - one of the issues we have to overcome in order to meet the challenge of education and thrive.

      Truly, such leaders are born once in a century! Tragically, we cherish them, when they are long gone and forgotten!!

      I like this video. When the man speaks the works listens. We all have our own skeletons but this man has what it takes as a President. He speaks with respect to everyone.

    'Thabo Mbeki: Only Human Capital Can Change Society For The Better'
    Just like having financial capital may not be enough to change society for the the better unless there is a sound allocation of that capital, human capital per se may not be enough to change society for the better. Because organized criminals are a form of human capital, but they don't and can't change society for the better because they have no interest of having a better society, a chaos, a bloody dynastic tyranny, etc are conditions of possibility of their predatory and criminals activities Thus there must be something more which are morality, ethics, hope and the fear of God. Human Capital inhabited by such characteristics can certainly change society for the better.

      @@heavychef Human Capital. If Africans must be born in Africa to suffer from African leaders, people must be disturbed, wander from part to part because they are so called internally displaced or refugees.
      If Africans must be born to symbolize the permanent poverty and eternal misery with their pain of hunger, etc then human isn't a capital, in other words, a mean. A mean of development. If there should be a place where human being care of one another, Africa should be one of such place. Because the history has been too painful. Thus it demand leaders in Africa not to be causes of sufferings, pains to the peoples. But unfortunately, it is not the case. And the 60 years old bloody and dynastic tyranny at Togo in West Africa is a living example of the evil that perpetuates the evil of the past.

    Mr Mbeki is part of the problem, sorry to say. He is partaker in creating the system which is failing everywhere. Unless the Lord builds the house, they that build do so in vain. Unless the Lord keeps the city, the watchmen do so in vain. It is in vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat bread of sorrows, for so He gives it to His beloved in their sleep...Psalm 127.
    We have given names to describe our own foolishness, incapability and ignorance. Someone or something else is the problem/culprit. Apartheid, colonialism, racism, white monopoly capital...what's next? You're focus is wrong. God is our problem. He hates anything that is not from Him. He becomes our greatest enemy and resists anybody who puts his trust in man, money or his own ability. The prophets Jeremiah and Ezekiel speaks to us today, louder as 2500yers ago.
