right now in south africa, and i have to say that south africans are a lot less forgiving than zimbabweanseculation in the media around the kind of deal that is being cut within the ruling party to get the president to leave. from what the reports are saying and the sources that are sort of leaking, it seems he is very reluctant to go and wants some sort of protection. however, it would make the new president very unpopular to give him any kind of blanket amnesty, so while there have been reports of various deals nothing has been confirmed. however, if the opposition party takes it into their own hands to do some sort of vote of no—confidence in the president, and are finally successful with that, you know, he has no bargaining power, and will leave with no benefits for the rest of his life. he has a terrible press here and he has a pretty bad press in south africa. i just wonder if you could explain his popular appeal because there are plenty of people who rather love jacob zuma, right? i think especially at the beginning of his presidency he was very well loved. i mean, he managed to do
