Well, surely, I am not in charge of South Africa.

Personally, I believe in self-determination, but in the context of one South Africa - so that my self-determination is based in this region, and with my people.

South Africa is blessed to have women and men like yourselves who have little to give but give what you have with open hands and open hearts.

All of our forebears contributed to what South Africa has become. That does not, however, mean that I must apologize to anyone for being born a Zulu, or for having that culture.

We all belong to South Africa, and South Africa belongs to us all.

In South Africa, we speak English and sometimes Afrikaans, sometimes Zulu, sometimes Xhosa.
