SOUTH AFRICA: REASONS TO BELIEVE

LL SOUTH AFRICANS – at home and abroad – face a critical choice. Either we choose to embrace our country with a positive, constructive and engaging spirit, or we choose pessimism, fear and misery. Our attitude towards South Africa plays a vital part in moving the country towards a brighter future.

In South Africa - Reasons to Believe! Guy Lundy and Wayne Visser challenge those who are choosing attitudes that knock South Africa down rather than build it up. Their words are intended to encourage the rising tide of South Africans who have a positive approach and a belief in the country’s future.

This book gathers together a wealth of facts, figures and real-life stories in a style that’s easily readable. Together they form a set of compelling reasons to believe in South Africa, its people and its future and rekindle the fire of optimism that many people felt after the nation’s political miracle in 1994.

As you read this book, you will have cause to smile with confidence and feel the warm glow of contentment about being South African. Expect to be informed and inspired!

Endorsement by former President, FW de Klerk

Very few teams, companies or individuals ever achieve success if they start out with negative and pessimistic attitudes. The same is true of countries – and of South Africa.

Too many South Africans have become fixated with the negative aspects of our society. It is accordingly most refreshing to see a book like “South Africa: Reasons to Believe” that presents a balanced picture of South Africa – one that acknowledges our enormous assets, achievements and successes without denying the very real challenges – like AIDS, poverty and crime - that confront us.

If we focus on the positives we will, with time, overcome our problems – just as we have done so often in the past. South Africa is the most wonderful, exciting and relevant country in the world – but it is a hard country with little time for whingers and armchair critics.

The response to problems should not be to throw up one’s hands in despair and to criticise from the sidelines: it should rather be to roll up our sleeves and to join one another in making our wonderful country a truly winning nation for all its people.

FW de Klerk, former President of South Africa.
