Tour country; 16 June 1976. The memory of the courageous
young, black students who took it upon themselves to stand up

We applaud every young person who has persevered, shown
tenacity, and dedication in completing their programmes through
the various SETA projects. From our TVET college and university
graduates, learnership graduates and our young dynamites from
the SETA's management development programmes, we add our
voice to the many in celebration of these young people, particularly
those in the Wholesale and Retail Sector who are changing the Holding the knife by the sharp edge. Florina Morabe is a
