"For too long we have closed our eyes as a nation ... We face the danger that half of our youth will not reach adulthood ... Our dreams as a people will be shattered," said Deputy President Thabo Mbeki in an unusual live broadcast. Some 83 percent of the world's AIDS deaths occur in sub-Saharan Africa. The region is home to two thirds of the world's entire HIV population nearly 21 million men, women and children. South Africa is one of the hardest-hit areas on the continent. The United Nations AIDS program (UNAIDS) estimates nearly 13 percent of the adult population is HIV- positive. HIV is the virus that causes AIDS.

"It is absurd to think that the party of the people of goodwill should be in opposition to the government of the country," Buthelezi told IFP delegates.

It contains new information on safety and security and entry and exit requirements. Australians in South Africa are advised to exercise caution. As you would in Australia, use common sense and be alert to suspicious activities. Be aware of concern about the security environment because of the risk of serious criminal activity. Australian travellers should be aware of the threat of terrorism globally and should read this travel advice in conjunction with the General Advice to Australian Travellers The risk of violent crime (including robbery and armed assault) is high throughout South Africa. Car-jackings, muggings, theft and pick-pocketing are common. Security risks increase after dark and during weekends in the major city areas and surrounding townships. Theft from hotel rooms is a problem.

     Extractions: President Mbeki will fight the lawsuit, says his spokesman The South African government is being sued, along with major corporations, by alleged victims of the apartheid era. The suit, filed in New York, seeks $10bn for "genocide, expropriation and other wrongful acts" by the firms under apartheid, said the US lawyer Ed Fagan. Controversially, it also demands another $10bn from the post-apartheid government for "continuing to allow companies to exploit victims". The government plans to defend itself, but would prefer it resolved in SA. The lawsuit targets mining firms Anglo-American and Goldfields; US computer giant IBM; UBS Bank of Switzerland and local petroleum company Sasol. "At the end of the day these companies were strategic partners of the (apartheid government)", Mr Fagan told a news conference. 'Winnable case' He said President Thabo Mbeki's government was also being targeted "because of its failure to fulfil its obligations and its conspiracy with specific companies to violate these people's rights".

For the past three years, the White House has been pressuring the South African government to drop its plans to seek cheaper alternatives to AIDS medications. Special Partner Promotion Find local technology jobs Officials were upset when the South African government in 1997 passed a law that would permit it parallel imports of AIDS drugs or the ability to compulsorily license AIDS medications, such as AZT, which studies have shown can reduce the rate of transmission between pregnant women and their babies. Parallel importing would let South Africa import patented drugs into the country from nations other than the U.S. at cheaper prices, since multinationals often charge different prices for the same drug.

"This Should Have Been Anthropology 101": Quiet Breakthroughs in Africa's War on AIDS Bill Clinton Gets a Taste of His Own Medicine ... Sex Workers of the World Unite! On Thursday Nelson Mandela's eldest son, Makgatho died tragically from an AIDS related disease. Mandela has been widely hailed for being open about the cause of his son's death. In a country where the stigma of AIDS forces people to lie every day about the disease, Mandela's move was indeed brave and is another example of his extraordinary moral courage and leadership. Right now, South Africa is in desperate need of more leadership of this nature. The same week that Makgatho Mandela died, controversy rages about the safety of the AIDS drug Nevirapine. The South African government, far from providing balance and reason, seems to be creating confusion and adding to stigma. The acrimonious relationship between the South African government, NGOs and the drug developers does untold harm to the effort to roll out essential treatment. All of this confirms the opinion that we have held for many years; that the simple message that drug patents block access to treatment is wrong.

     Extractions: South Africa (see map ) is a country blessed with an abundance of natural resources including fertile farmlands and unique mineral resources. South African mines are world leaders in the production of diamonds and gold as well as strategic metals such as platinum. The climate is mild, reportedly resembling the San Francisco bay area weather more than anywhere in the world. South Africa was colonized by the English and Dutch in the seventeenth century. English domination of the Dutch descendents (known as Boers or Afrikaners) resulted in the Dutch establishing the new colonies of Orange Free State and Transvaal. The discovery of diamonds in these lands around 1900 resulted in an English invasion which sparked the Boer War. Following independence from England, an uneasy power-sharing between the two groups held sway until the 1940's, when the Afrikaner National Party was able to gain a strong majority. Strategists in the National Party invented apartheid as a means to cement their control over the economic and social system. Initially, aim of the apartheid was to maintain white domination while extending racial separation. Starting in the 60's, a plan of ``Grand Apartheid'' was executed, emphasizing territorial separation and police repression. In 1951, the Bantu Authorities Act established a basis for ethnic government in African reserves, known as ``homelands.'' These homelands were independent states to which each African was assigned by the government according to the record of origin (which was frequently inaccurate). All political rights, including voting, held by an African were restricted to the designated homeland. The idea was that they would be citizens of the homeland, losing their citizenship in South Africa and any right of involvement with the South African Parliament which held complete hegemony over the homelands. From 1976 to 1981, four of these homelands were created, denationalizing nine million South Africans. The homeland administrations refused the nominal independence, maintaining pressure for political rights within the country as a whole. Nevertheless, Africans living in the homelands needed passports to enter South Africa: aliens in their own country.

     Extractions: Return to collections homepage. Acknowledgments Essay The South African document collection provides a contemporary record of changing U.S. responses to historical events in South Africa from 1962 to 1989. Coveted for its resources, supported as an ally, empowered by its nuclear capability and hated for its policy of apartheid, South Africa remains a country of extremes. Reactive in nature, U.S. policies toward South Africa reflect a desire to reconcile conflicting interests in South Africa and the region. The collection provides primary source documents dealing with most aspects of U.S. policy toward South Africa from 1962 to 1989. The document collection highlights the fact that U.S. policy toward South Africa has sailed an improvised, often erratic course between U.S. economic, scientific and strategic interests and South Africa's repressive racial policies, with occassional concessions to black African leaders as the pressure mounted, while avoiding an irreparable break with the white regime. Most frequently, U.S. policies toward South Africa have been reactive, not proactive. Following the Sharpeville Massacre of March 21, 1960, the United States asserted, for the first time to the U.N. General Assembly, its "abhorrence" of South Africa's apartheid policies. Soon thereafter, President Kennedy instructed U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Adlai Stevenson to vote in favor of an arms embargo against Pretoria. The United States subsequently authorized the sale of helicopters, air-to-air missiles, torpedoes, sidewinder missile and other military equipment to South Africa, however, justifying the sales as necessary for the "maintenance of peace and international security and the common defense effort in the interest of the world community."

Support for the South African government poured in... In 1997, the South African government had passed the "Medicines and Related Substances Control Amendment Act," a law making medicines more affordable by allowing parallel imports (buying the cheapest available patented drug), enforcing generic substitution, and implementing price controls. Objecting to many of the provisions included in the Act, 39 pharmaceutical companies filed suit to block the legislation. They claimed that the law was unconstitutional and that it violated South Africa's commitments under the World Trade Organization's TRIPS Agreement. This claim was met with a public outcry at the pharmaceutical industry's desire to put profits before poor people's lives.
