Eintlik wens ek die myne word genasionaliseer,
Britanje en Amerika het hul hande diep in SA se
rykdom en hulle het ons as nasie prakties vernietig
deur hul liberale inmenging in SA.

Nationalisation on ANC agenda: Malema
2010-05-07 21:18
Johannesburg - The nationalisation of mines was on the agenda of the
ANC, despite government denials ANC Youth League president Julius
Malema said on Friday.
"Other people can go around and assure and make assurances that mines
will never be nationalised, yet the reality of the situation is that
the nationalisation of mines is currently on the agenda of the ANC,"
he said.
"Our struggle now is for the economic emancipation and the
nationalisation of mines."
"The ANCYL is unashamedly on the forefront of the campaign to make
sure that mines in South Africa is nationalised for the benefit of the
people of South Africa."
Benefiting the people
Referring to a recent visit he paid Venezuela's President Hugo Chavez,
Malema said it was through state ownership that the Venezuelan
government provided free education, health and affordable social
services.
"The people of Venezuela benefit from the state’s ownership and
control of oil resources."
"Yet in SA, we have the world’s biggest reserves for platinum, gold,
chrome and manganese, and many other important minerals, yet the
majority of us have never even seen how the minerals look like."
Many South Africans had not benefited from the country’s minerals,
Malema said in opening a meeting of the ANCYL’s Young Womens' Assembly
at Ingwenya Lodge in Muldersdrift.
He, and other guests, watched a fashion show and a graphic
presentation on female reproductive health during a four-hour wait for
delegates to arrive at the conference.
'Respect women'
Malema said men should respect women, and "find a balance" between
their cultural rights and their respect for women.
"It can never be permanently correct that men have the liberty to have
as many sexual partners, when women are demonised in engaging in such
practices," he said.
The ANCYL campaigned for the practice of "one boyfriend, one
girlfriend".
"Multi-sexual relationships will be discouraged, not only among the
youth, but among all South Africans because the scourge of HIV and
Aids impacted all of us, irrespective of gender, culture and age."
Malema wore a yellow Bafana Bafana T-shirt to the event, where he was
introduced as "Baby Juju" and welcomed by women singing the praise
"when Malema speaks, you must listen".
Public rebuke
In April, President Jacob Zuma publicly rebuked Malema for his
insistence on singing the "shoot the boer" song, about his statements
on the murder of AWB leader Eugene Terre'Blanche and on the talks on
Zimbabwe, and for his attacks on journalists.
Zuma described Malema's conduct as "alien to the ANC".
Malema reportedly remained defiant at a news conference at the ANCYL's
Limpopo conference the next day, saying he would not take any personal
responsibility for his remarks made on Zimbabwe.
He said he "can't understand" why he was rebuked about his statements
on Zimbabwe, as the views expressed were not his, but those of the
ANCYL.
"We had the blessings of President Zuma," Malema told SABC news. He
also said he was shocked about the way he was rebuked in public on
television by Zuma, who is also the ANC president.
'No right to threaten'
"Even (former) president Thabo Mbeki, when he differed with the Youth
League, and the Youth League had taken firm radical positions against
him, he never did that," he said.
The ANC began disciplinary hearings on Monday into Malema's actions.
On Friday, Malema said the ANC did not belong to individuals, but to
its members.
"All leaders of the ANC will come and go. Those who see us as threat
to their positions have no right to threaten us with possible
expulsions from the movement."
"The movement remains in the hands of the membership."
He said the ANCYL would "never question or defy the leadership", but
that it said "many things on topics that others are scared to say".
