An encounter with Magosi

The position adds value and credit to Magosi' s already rich course of life. It is a first for him and a first for Botswana at the 16-member strong SADC regional bloc.

Obviously it raises Botswana 's profile and pedigree among community of nations and Botswana should relish the opportunity of being at the heart of whatever process of change the organisation may wish to embark on to make the organisation more relevant and responsive to the aspirations of its 340 million population.
