	South African general election, 1994 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The South African general election in 1994 was the first free election held after apartheid, therefore also the first held on a non-racial basis and with universal suffrage.
		The election was conducted under the direction of the Independent Electoral Commission (IEC).
		The African National Congress, whose slate incorporated the labor confederation COSATU and the South African Communist Party, fell slightly short of a two-thirds majority.

		South Africa is one of the most ethnically diverse countries on the continent, home to the largest population of people of European descent in Africa and the largest Indian population in Africa.
		The South African government is trying to combat the problem through a program called Working for Water, which employs many South Africans to cut down thousands of nonnative trees, thereby restoring the flow of water from the mountains to the rivers.
		South African politics is currently dominated by the African National Congress, which received 69.7 percent of the vote in the 2004 general election.

	South African general election: ANC wins overwhelming majority
		The African National Congress’s (ANC) overwhelming majority, nearly 70% of the vote, has predictably been hailed by its leadership and most of the media as a ringing endorsement of its policies.
		The increased vote for the DA (an offspring of the white liberal former Democratic Party that served as an opposition party under apartheid representing the interests of sections of big business) to 12.3% (1.7% 1994 and 8.5% in 1999) is due mainly to the fact that it benefited from the collapse of the NNP.
		The Cosatu leadership, as part of the Tripartite Alliance with the ANC and the South African Communist Party (which received only 4% support in the Cosatu survey), once again campaigned for an ANC vote despite their humiliation by Mbeki and SACP central committee members in his cabinet during the anti-privatisation general strike in 2002.

		The IFP was critical of the negotiation process between the ANC and the South African government, and was not formally involved in the process.
		The PAC coined slogans such as "Africa for the Africans." In 1960, the PAC organized a campaign against pass laws that was the spark for the Sharpeville Massacre.
		Born from the International Socialist League, the Communist Party of South Africa was formally established at a conference in Cape Town in 1921, with strong connections to the Moscow-based Comintern.

	Mozambique Letter of Intent, June 10, 1999
		The domestic primary deficit, before grants, is projected to increase from 0.6 percent of GDP in 1998 to 2.6 percent in 1999, but to narrow to 1.7 percent in 2000 because of both higher revenue and reduced spending pressures.
		Given a projected substantial increase in government deposits in 1999 stemming from foreign aid disbursements, there will be room for both an increase in net foreign assets and a healthy expansion of bank credit to the private sector.
		Specifically, by the end of 1999, the Bank of Mozambique will be authorized to hold regular auctions of treasury bills; it will determine the amounts of the auctions on the basis of cash-flow forecasts shared with the Ministry of Planning and Finance, as needed for monetary control purposes.

	South Africa marks a decade of freedom
		In the third post-apartheid general election on 14 April -- in which the ANC won a 70 per cent majority -- the proportion of women parliamentarians edged up slightly, from 30 to 33 per cent.
		The finance minister noted that South Africa's economy is strongly influenced by the global economy, which is "characterized by extraordinarily uneven growth." In particular, the economies of Western Europe -- South Africa's major trading partners -- are still growing at less than 1 per cent annually.
		COSATU General Secretary Zwelinzima Vavi welcomed this "recent shift" in the government's broad economic policy and cited it as a factor in the labour federation's support for the ANC in the April general election.

		For much of the 1990s Nigeria suffered under the iron fist of General Sani Abacha, who seized power from fellow army officers in a 1993 coup and then used threats and terror to maintain control until his unexpected death from a heart attack in June 1998.
		The 62-year-old Obasanjo, jailed by Abacha in 1995 for allegedly plotting a coup and released last year after the general's death, won the Feb. 27 election with 63% of the vote.
