ANC Centenary Celebrations - The president's speech

Though I joined in late to listen to the speech of Jacob Zuma (thanks to Man U and Man City game), could not help picking up the need to have a relevant vision (I think the president referred to it as a vision of the future).

Can you just imagine how much more we could see getting done both on micro or macro level if only most of us kept on revisiting our vision?

Take for example, all the service delivery problems most African governments keep facing including South Africa itself, if only the vision was of the future or relevant, how many citizens would have been satisfied by now given the appalling conditions these people in townships are living in?

I am actually looking forward to seeing the full speech so that I can digest it and if possible see how the issues raised could be put into context and see how successful or lack thereof , 17 years on? Stay tuned!
