TLU SA’s signing and launch of the Charter for the Protection of Private Property Rights takes place at a critical point of time in South Africa’s political and economic history.<\/span><\/p>\n

Socialist rhetoric, unattainable expectations, and racially driven legislation regarding private property rights have severely undermined the South African economy and agricultural sector, threatening sustainable production.<\/span><\/p>\n

The agricultural sector, once proudly known as the breadbasket of South Africa and the African continent, has been weakened over three decades. TLU SA uses the launch of the Charter as a countermeasure against socialist failures that have driven countries like Zimbabwe and Venezuela into poverty.<\/span><\/p>\n

“We call upon values that are internationally accepted, have promoted economic stability and growth for centuries, and have been foundational in many international conventions for the protection of civil rights,” says Bennie van Zyl, General Manager of TLU SA.<\/span><\/p>\n

This Charter is launched as a standard for the protection of private property, and we hope that individuals, social entities, and institutions will endorse it and promote international awareness and support for private property rights.<\/span><\/p>\n

In nineteen articles, TLU SA and its agricultural allies commit to opposing ideologically driven property redistribution, rejecting anti-free market economic principles, and promoting agriculture for the benefit of all South Africans.<\/span><\/p>\n

TLU SA makes a serious appeal to all South Africans to form a united front to protect private property rights, which are essential for exercising other civil rights such as human dignity, religious freedom, freedom of movement, trade freedom, occupational freedom, housing, education, language, and culture.<\/span><\/p>\n

With the launch of the Charter, TLU SA calls on individuals and social institutions to stand together against any encroachments on private property and to use all constitutional and other mechanisms to resist the deprivation and\/or limitation of private property rights for socialist purposes by all available means.<\/span><\/p>\n

The launch and signing took place on Wednesday, 24 July, in Pretoria.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
