Trust is the key to success for the Multi-party Charter
19 October 2023
Trust. That is the key for the parties in the Multi-party Charter to achieve success in next year's general elections and replace the ANC as government of South Africa.
Without trust and cooperation, success is not attainable.
Coalitions are usually formed after elections and, so, the Multi-party Charter for South Africa creates a unique situation as parties have already formally reached out to one another long before the elections.
Even countries traditionally governed by coalition governments, such as Germany, which members of the Multi-party Charter recently visited to take a closer look at the system, could learn something from the situation in South Africa.
