Opinion/Letters
Khama challenged to prove BDP/BNF relationship
When General Khama was brought in from the Botswana Defence Force, it was with the hope that he will help shore up the declining fortunes of the Botswana Democratic Party (BDP). The BDP popular vote has been on the decline since independence, with the exception of the 1999 general elections, after the Botswana National Front (BNF) split that led to the formation of the Botswana Congress Party (BCP).

We need AIDS cure, not ABC
Thanks to the truth as told by Kgosi Mothibe Linchwe and reported in The Midweek Sun of June 7, 2006 under the title: "Batswana men don't have time to make babies".

Learn from others on schools double-shift system
I have lived in Botswana for several years and still keep up with the goings on. I was very perturbed when I read about the Secondary School Shift system. I come from the Island of Trinidad and we have tried the Shift System experiment for a couple of decades and it has been phased out and declared a complete failure.

Protect Morama's rights
I still cannot understand what the hullaballoo about Tshotlego Morama is all about. How can a reporter jump into a teenager's pants and be allowed to stay there a couple of weeks without raising the nations's eye-brows. It now looks like the battle to protect Morama's personal rights and integrity is confined to one person, BNSC chairperson Dorcus Makgatho-Malesu.

Is our national TV a tool of discrimination?
After watching the evening news of Thursday 15 June, I was left wondering whether Btv is a perpetrator of discrimination or not. Some regions of this country seem to be treated as second-hand citizens and others legitimate ones.
