The High Commissioner gave a very honest talk about his life in South Africa and then as an exile for many years. He concluded his talk with an up beat description of life in South Africa and he also discussed HIV/AIDS, the World Football Cup 2010 and crime. All in all we came away encouraged by the South African Government's approach to their problems and their hopes and aspirations for the future. Indeed South Africa is the Good Hope for Africa.

Darryl Gardiner a local Wiradjuri man and Kili 28/8 climber presented His Excellency with a didgeridoo that Darryl had made himself. His Excellency promised to learn how to play it and said that he would play it at the World Cup in 2010.
