Thread: Namibian Development Plan.

This is a proposed plan of Development for Namibia by Namibians. Take from this what suits you and leave the rest. We often change to accommodate the way we developed and would certainly give back where we can.

Thanks Hengari for reflecting what we need in Namibia today.

What has happened to the dream of shaping Namibia into a successful model of a political system, where the Basic Law provided freedom and economic stability to all Namibians? Why should the difference be so big, when we compare living conditions of people throughout Namibia? It is essential that these are determined by social and economic policy. Our government in Namibia should be an administrative system enforces to serve the Namibian population first and foremost.

Ceasar's aim was the conquer the whole world. He went on with his wars and won victory over an usurper in the kingdom of Piemont. He did everything he could to ensure law and order in Rome, which was begining to fall apart after many years long anarchy. In Namibia much less are needed to ensure social liberty and a good life. We have not to fight any wars. Now is the time to invest in the people of Namibia. Are we not the smile on the face of Africa? If so, then it is time to act in this way. We are less then 2 million people in Namibia and we have fishing resources, natural gas, gold, diamonds, uranium, copper, zink, taxes, rates, levies, ect..

Human dignity shall and must be always inviolable. To respect and protect it shall be the duty of all state authority. Other most basic rights such as proper housing (electricity, gas, heating, clean approved running water, proper wastewater system and rubbish removals) should be speedyly implement to save quality human life, regardless of race, sex, oldage and disability.

The Social Security Policies should be reconstructed and Supplemental Security Income disability programs should be establish. What has happened to Civil Rights and Equal Opportunity Development and Protection under the Law?

Jobs, benefits, pensions and retirements should no longer be a dream for the mayority of Namibians. Government should get her house in order and do something for the jobseekers or pay them jobseeking benefits to start of with. Benefits advisors should be available for questionnaire to help you find out which benefits and tax credits you and your family may be entitled to, and also if you are entitled to the State Pension. Tax payers money and funding from Government should be ear marked for this purposes. Time to stop the gravy train and time to invest in your most prescious recourse, the
Namibian people as a whole, regardless of age, race, gender and disability. This should become second nature to uphold and respect the human dignity of each individual.

What happened to the Namibian Constitution that promised Child Support Agencies, Disability and Carers Services or is it just one of my many wishes for a brighter Namibia?

Working age benefits, Armed Forces Compensation Schemes, Attendance Allowance, Bereavement benefits, Carer's Allowance, Christmas Bonus, Council Tax Benefits, Disability Living Allowance, Hospital personal allowance, Housing Benefit, Incapacity Benefit, Income Support, Income Support hospital rates, Industrial Injuries Disablement Benefit, Industrial Death Benefit, Jobseeker's Allowance, Pension Credit, Pneumoconiosis, Byssinosis and Miscellaneous Diseases Benefit scheme and State Pension, Severe Disablement Allowance, Social Fund, Statutory Adoption Pay, Statutory Maternity Pay, Statutory Paternity Pay, Statutory Sick Pay, War Pensions to all War Veterans regardless of political affiliation,
Widow’s benefits, Winter Fuel Payments, People aged 60 or over, People aged 80 or over, Workmen’s Compensation Supplementation, Extra benefits for dependants, should be for all Namibian people available.

Fixed rates should be implemented for National Insurance contribution rates from employers and employees. Where to get help and advice should not be an issue.Perhaps something in the nature of an economic revolution is required. Our development has been held back for too long by the
colonial-type economy. We need to reorganize entirely, since we fall victim to a catastrophic situation reveals in our reconcilliation process.

Now should be a time to start where nothing has been done. It is time to give back generously to the Namibians. Only then will Namibia be united as a people.
