They way I see it there is a need for a non party political international representation of many African countries. A Constitutional monarchy (or limited monarchy) is a form of government in which a monarch acts as head of state within the guidelines of a constitution.
This form of government differs from absolute monarchy in which an absolute monarch serves as the source of power in the state and is not legally bound by any constitution and has the powers to regulate his or her respective government. Most constitutional monarchies employ a parliamentary system in which the monarch may have strictly ceremonial duties or may have reserve powers, depending on the constitution. For development It is important with a sense of continuity, independent of what political party is elected. A constitutional monarch could serve that purposes of continuity, and also be able to act as an international non political ambassador for the country.
I believe this would benefit trade, commerce and investment for many African countries. Also the monarch in his ceremonial duties would be able to create a sense of national belonging for the people, and act as a unifying symbol above party politics.

]]> Comment on Swazi PM misleads on education standards by khumalo SL http://stiffkitten.wordpress.com/2013/02/15/swazi-pm-misleads-on-education-standards/#comment-2723 Mon, 18 Feb 2013 21:36:49 +0000 http://stiffkitten.wordpress.com/?p=5636#comment-2723 First of all! We sound that all political prisoners must be released, democracy must also be there in SD because before we are students we are the members of the community. Education must be free in all grades as the other neighbouring countries do. There must be many tertiary institutions in the country that will allow more learners to do what they want to raise the economy of the country. All banned political parties must be free and back to the working class. If there is no freedom the people of SD will continue starving, killed and unemployed while there is a lot of work to do in th country. Long live the spirit of free education long live! We will be free at last and enjoy our last victory!
