"I believe that South Africa is the most beautiful
place on earth. Admittedly, I am biased, but when you
combine the natural beauty of sunny South Africa with
the friendliness and cultural diversity of our people,
and the fact that the region is a haven for Africa's most
splendid wildlife, then I think even the most scrupulous
critic would agree that we have been blessed with a truly
wonderful land.
I would like
to extend a personal invitation to you to come and see
for yourself the splendor of South Africa. I know that
my people will be delighted to welcome you and I think
you will be enchanted by their warmth and hospitality.
I am equally sure that you will enjoy our culture, our
cuisine and the warmth of our people."
Nelson Mandela, Former President
of The Republic of South Africa
