SOUTH AFRICA

I don't have much to write this week. I'll just say that we are battling the usual things. The new breakaway party has chosen a name—Congress of the People (COPE). They are trying hard to coalesce all opposition parties to make a strong run against the ANC. Earlier I said that I foresaw things changing in 2014 at the next presidential election, that they didn't have the numbers yet. But things changed. We will see what they will do. And if they are able to join forces with other opposition group with whom they are talking they may have a chance. Right now there are many fighting to stop Zuma's 2/3 majority.

We also had an outbreak of cholera, a water-born disease in the Gauteng (Johannesburg area) province that came from Zimbabwe.
