STATEMENT ON THE DEATH OF ZAC DE BEER
The President learnt with a deep sense of shock of the death of Zac de Beer. On behalf of the government and himself personally, the President would like to convey condolences to the family. The nation is the poorer of the loss of one who proved himself a principled opponent of apartheid, and who then as our Ambassador, helped democratic South Africa establish itself as a member of the community of free nations.
