Abahlali baseMjondolo to Launch Another New Branch

New AbM Branch to be Launched at Siyanda Section B on Saturday 7 March 2009

Despite all the hardship currently faced by Abahlali baseMjondolo and in shack settlements all over Durban the movement will be launching another new branch in Siyanda at Section B. The community is tired of the empty promises by the municipality and the negligences of the Department of Housing which delays the process of access to adequate houses. The fact that the community is waiting for houses doesn't mean that they shouldn't be provided with the basic infrastructures like water, toilets, electricity etc while they wait. This infrastructure is basic - it is necessary for people's safety and dignity.
