12.46.23 INTERVIEW WITH DR NTABA, MALAWI CONGRESSì
PARTY PUBLICITY SECRETARY
12.47.29 AFTER 3 DECADES TO BE OPPOSITION? It isì
quite a different ball game all together.
12.47.41 MCP was in gorv for period of 31 years.ì
We had a very stable period politically,ì
economically we didn't do too badly and we wereì
accustomed to being in power.
12.47.54 Since Malawi has just gone into thisì
multi-party system of politics, and the MCP hasì
gone over to be the official opposition, there isì
a lot of new skills that the MCP has toì
learn...but even the ruling party, UDF - I thinkì
we are learning together what multi-party politicsì
is all about.
12.48.29 Seeing it from the opposition perspective
....one has good reason to be concerned abot a nuì
of things...
12.48.42 ...the economy is going into a state ofì
change...
12.48.51 prices are completely out of reach forì
the average Malawian
12.49.03 RE PRICES OF VARIOUS COMMODITIES
12.49.22 SALARIES HAVEN'T CHANGED MUCH
12.49.34 Politically the situation are not muchì
different. We are living in a situation whereì
there are various parties in opposition....
12.50.01 There was for some time an alliance amongì
the opposition parties which gave the gorv quite aì
bit of concern, but that alliance has beenì
effectively dismantled by the ruling party inì
power...they have a comfortable majority...
12.50.48 EXPECT TO SEE CHANGE IN BALANCE OF POWERì
IN NATIONAL ASSEMBLY
12.51.07 DIFFERENT STARTEGY?
12.51.17 We're very concerned now that the rulingì
UDF respects constitutionality. They came to powerì
on the platform of respect for law, respect forì
human rights - these are principles we believeì
they should live up to.
12.51.39 CONCERNED - JUST PAYING LIP-SERVICE TOì
CONSTITUTION
12.51.52 We believe that they don't appreciateì
fully that political democracy without economicì
stability = meaningless. The economic state of theì
country right now is to say the least, in shamblesì
and we believe as a responsible opposition, weì
should be persistant in pointing out to theì
present gorv that they have to pay seriousì
attention to all the economic ills of this countryì
& that's the only way they really can consolidateì
the democratic gains.
12.52.38 VENDETTA COURT CASES? There's no doubt...
12.53.06 REFERRING TO PRESIDENT SAYING THAT HE ISì
WILLING TO WORK WITH ALL MALAWIANS EXCEPT MCP
12.53.18 THESE STATEMENT were completelyì
unwarranted & not what a statesman should beì
saying.
12.53.25 HAVE SEEN CHANGES IN CIVIL SERVICE - PROì
MCP = DISMISSED OR DEMOTED SNR OFFICERS IN POLICEì
FORCED TO RESIGN
12.54.08 This is pure political vendetta not onlyì
against the MCP, but against the central regionì
where the MCP has the strongest hold & where theì
former president comes from.
12.54.24 So there is no doubt in everybody's mindì
that there's a lot of political vendetta approach,ì
vengeance on the part of the UDF gorv.
12.54.59 RE COURT CASES - STATEPRESIDENT HIMSELFì
WERE ONCE KEY-PLAYERS IN THE MCP - AT A TIME WHENì
THE MCP WAS AT THE HEIGHT OF THESE ALLEDGEDì
ATROCITIES
12.55.39 Most of us came to the MCP recently. Weì
were not there when these abuses were beingì
committed. We have a new MCP which is perhaps toì
sa the least, resents even more the atrocitiesì
that the old MCP was committing, the old MCP whichì
was being run by Statepresident Muluzi when he wasì
secretary-genl...
12.56.04 People haven't forgotten these otrocitiesì
that the MCP committed when these people were inì
the driving seat...
12.56.47 DON'T BELIEVE PEOPLE ARE JUST LOOKING ATì
NEGATIVE PUBLICITY - LOOKING AT THE TOTALITY -ì
COURT CASES MAY BACKFIRE ON THE UDF
12.57.27 STRATEGY FOR FUTURE = TO ENSURE THATì
MALAWI = ALWAYS BE PEACEFUL & STABLE COUNTRY
12.58.10 RE DEMOLISHING OFFICES IN BLANTYRE...
DELIBERATELY TO PROVOKE US INTO RETALIATIONS
12.58.42 CONSTRUCTIVE OPPOSITION WITH AIM TOì
RETURN TO POWER
12.59.01 MULTI-PARTY DEMOCRACY IS HERE TO STAY
12.59.37 [THUNDERSTORM]
12.59.49 KEY-PLAYERS OF UDF STILL HAVE TENDENCYì
