The dress code is discriminatory

Around 1974 or 1975, a curb reporter by the name of Mpho Oliphant interviewed the then permanent secretary to the president-them, Phillip Stenkamp, on the dress code with special reference to women wearing trousers in the public service. Women public servants then were not allowed to wear trousers as this was seen as the domain of men. But because Sir Seretse Khama's government believed in quality of man women, the restriction was immediately abolished as it was sexist and discriminatory.

During the same period Sir Seretse Khama's government abolished the regulations of tradition beers and Chibuku through licensing process. It is not cost effective and criminalises innocent people who want to make ends meet.
