Opinion/Letters
Government ignored the Wildlife Department's advice on CKGR
It is good to see that the Botswana Congress Party (Mmegi 20th Sept 2006) and others are speaking out against the Government's forced removal of the Basarwa from the CKGR.

Radibe's dismissal was unfair
The recent termination of service of the BTU President Mr Japhta Radibe is outright unfair dismissal. The whole exercise is politically motivated, and will further strain the employee - employer relations between teacher unions and the Ministry of Education.

The environment fights back
Our political systems and global politics are largely unequipped for the real challenges of today's world. Global economic growth and rising populations are putting unprecedented stresses on the physical environment, and these stresses in turn are causing unprecedented challenges for our societies. Yet politicians are largely ignorant of these trends. Governments are not organised to meet them. And crises that are fundamentally ecological in nature are managed by outdated strategies of war and diplomacy.

BNF condemns Radibe's dismissal
The Botswana National Front (BNF) condemns in the strongest terms the dismissal of the President of the Botswana Teachers' Union (BTU), Comrade Japhta Radibe, from work by the Botswana Democratic Party (BDP) government.
