Realising The Dream

PARTICIPATION - "SEABE SA MOTSWANA MONGWE LE MONGWE"

Batswana will be active participants in all the elements of Vision 2016, not passive beneficiaries of addittional services, infrastructure and improved quality of life. While Government has an undeniable and critical role to play "seabe sa Motswana mongwe le mongwe" (the role of every Motswana) is a fundamental of the equation. Every Motswana must marshal his or her best energies and resources towards the realisation of the Vision.

In this regard, a sustainable Governement budget, the promotion of savings through carefully crafted and innovative financial instruments; well-managed co-operatives and other collective schemes; and more importantly the re-invigoration and sustenance of self reliance, "Boipelego" are imperative to the success of the Vision.

The communities, business people, farmers. employees and other stakeholders have to exploit to the full the potential of pooling resources for a common goal and Vision. The implementation of self-relaince spirit and the people's participatory contribution to development relies entirely on the commitment and dedication of the young women and men, the elderly, the children and the disabled. They have, or can acquire knowledge nad expertise that can be utilised to improve the quality of their lives and the status of their villages and towns.
