The expression "standing on the shoulders of giants" comes to mind. If Zambia is today held up as a model of African democracy and positive economic development, then it is important to acknowledge the contribution and sacrifice of men of principle and integrity such as your father. He would be very proud of you.

The decline of Zambia is due largely to Kaunda's ineptness.

It's a wonderful blog which took a lot longer to read than I anticipated due to my vision being so impaired by the tears in my eyes. <br /><br />I hope that it is not just my egocentricity that found it so compelling and that everyone who reads it, will find something in it for them regardless weather they know our family or not.<br /><br />Clive, Ed, Mal,<br /><br /> I love you, <br /><br />ChrisxShabenzunoreply@blogger.com
