We are focused on those actions that will make a meaningful difference now, that will enable real progress within the next year and that will lay a foundation for a sustained recovery into the future. We are concentrating on those issues that concern South Africans the most: load shedding, unemployment, poverty and the rising cost of living, crime and corruption.

There are no easy solutions to any of these challenges. Yet we have the strength, the means and the wherewithal to overcome them. If we work together and act boldly and decisively, leaving no one behind, we will be able to resolve our challenges.
