FF Plus informs United Nations about problems in SA affecting minorities
The FF Plus is at present busy informing the world through the United Nations' Human Rights Commission Forum in Geneva, Switzerland, regarding the various problems that directly affect minority communities in South Africa, Dr. Pieter Mulder, the Leader of the FF Plus says.
Dr. Mulder is accompanied by Mr. André Fourie, chairperson of the FF Plus' foreign affairs committee and councillor for the City of Cape Town.
"The Human Rights Commission's theme for this year is: ‘Preventing and addressing violence and atrocities targeted against minorities' and it therefore joins up perfectly with the message of the FF Plus about the fate of minorities in South Africa," Dr. Mulder says.
The FF Plus has four presentations that it has to make. It deals with farm attacks, the failed and harmful land claims process, affirmative action and the dismantling of Afrikaans. The commission has already been addressed on farm attacks. The introduction of the presentation reads as follows:
We request that this Forum on minority issues seriously take note of worrisome increase in the violent murder of farmers and farm workers in South Africa since 1994.
