World Aids days,HIV testing and BP at UKZN the people's space.

On the world Aids day in the people’s space was not too much,because omst people had their meet of planibg about the global day of action.It was meet in the meeting rooms but most people didn’t have the high agander based on the Aids day.It seens as if alot of citizen has lost interest when it come to Aids due to the COP17.T’he sick affect people must try and presure the government that if they have events or sumit they must told and get the inform if things are happen

CIVILS SCOEITY SPEAKING OUT THEIR VIEWS

 

Union group in a meeting.

Aids day also had some problem with some of the union ( )members who,arised the prblem in the meeting due to the undicent accommodation,over date food for their meals.In question whre do the leaders of the union also share these challenges with you,it shows that of the union leaders sleep in high hotels and the eat reasonable food.The union made problems to finish the meet proper,due the boycot that accured. The Northen Cape society of art has gather also to unpack the dissatifaction of the socieity,that is living around Africa.The companies that pollute are the problem.The Washinton DC in Un,part of the country that is on the east coast,the problem of the shifting of the time,that time is push to be later and later.They hope that South Africa can agree to the global funds.

The Global day of action was not the united within the civil soceity gather,alot waas misused the civil soceity group were like promoting one anonthers group to show which has the massive numbers unders their groups.The show the over all the is no justice,lack of solidarate from the civil soceity groups.Also the Mr Vavi presenting his speech but having guards on his side that protect his from by people while erpresenting the people.The civil soceity shall never be be heard properly if the laeders still have that regem uf misusung the people,moblising them then after fighth the battle of promoting the leaders,civil siceity groups and aslo have different missions to optain or to reach the vission of the civil siceity groupsClick to view slideshow.

With the peoples space at UKZN Howard coolege at the end of every meting that was held at he centre the most unexpected thing occurd the Democratic Left had the bigest oarty ever not really understanding that at the end of all thing the are people who are poor,unemployed,most of all effeted by he issue of climate change.The movement lacked the vission the that was the maun aim of the paoples space at the frist time.It was met to support the poor and those who where not able to come and feel it for theselve,but it seems as it ended up as a party that only occured for the Democratic Left leaders.The move of at that night the 5th of December a man on that night when the leaders where enjoying the party that man was busy expolated working on the nigth designing a one million climate jobs poster.The hard are the oppretion must come to an end from our leads,on o the leads opposed a statement where we see who is” in side the round that they have after the party and who is outside”.

At the civil society press presentation at Ethekwini City Hall which was including Mr Zuma,to make a presentation.The press presentation end badly,due to the City Officers who didn’t want the researchers and civil soceity groups to speak out the truth/veiws on how they see the government of South Africa. 

The Conference is done and over things has gone back to it normal the people are still in question of what was the uses of the COp17 if they don’tsee an thing that is supportive to them.The Global fund is a matter of questioning wheather fund would benfit the ground effected citizens or the grid government of South Africa.We have had it with the government and the United Nation,they misled us as people and the use their power.It about time we as people opened our eyes and see that the ruling party (ANC) that we believe in has lost it vission of supporting the poor instead the support their  families in the expense of the citizens.The next summit or conference that would be hosted in South Africa the reality is that it need to be occupied so the government would see that we have had it with him and his friends United Nation.
