Basarwa coalition won't back SI call

Last week, the executive director of the Khwedom council Keikobile Mogodu told Mmegi in an interview  that they would not call on the global community to boycott Botswana diamonds, saying that they prefer to engage government on the issue.

The new San organisation launched in July has representation of Basarwa tribes from Chobe to the southern tip of the country and Kgalagadi. Representatives in the committee come from the Chobe/Ngamiland, Gantsi, Jamataka, Nata, Mababe in Chobe, Kweneng and Kgatleng, and the south and Kgalagadi regions.
