FREE WILL'

- GCWALISILE KHANYILE

DEPUTY President Paul Mashatile said while the government wants people to stay in the country, it cannot force those who want to leave, to remain.

He was referring to the 49 Afrikaners who left for the US after being granted refugee status.

“On the issue of the Afrikaners going to the US, our position is that South Africa is a democracy.

“We have set ourselves a standard to believe that it belongs to all who live in it, black and white, but those who decide to leave do so of their own free will.

“We would like everybody to stay. We want white people in this country, the farmers; we want them to work in this country, but we can’t stop anybody who decides, ‘I do not want to stay in this country’. But we are continuing to build this country,” Mashatile said.
