whilst i note the essence of the reasoning behind non attendance by our movement our beloved NUM, i think that we shud have attended the commemoration. this we do in honour of those who passed on and a sign to pay respect to the families. i am saying this based on the information at our disposal where were are informed that because the event is not organised throuhg govt. if however the real reason revolves around safety concerns of our leaders and our members, i agree to non-attendance. we must however at some-stage repair the relations with the Marikana community for the sake of sanity.
