His Holiness the Dalai Lama Congratulates Cyril Ramaphos on Re-election as the President of South Africa

Dharamsala: His Holiness the Dalai Lama has written to Cyril Ramaphosa to congratulate him on being re-elected President of South Africa following the recent elections.

“South Africa has been a stable, democratic country since the end of apartheid,” he wrote. “Its diverse multinational society, encompassing a wide variety of cultures, languages, and religions living in peace together, sets an example for others to emulate. I hope that under your leadership the country will continue to prosper and develop and that you will also strive to improve the lives of those who are less privileged.

“May I wish you every success in meeting the challenges and opportunities that may lie ahead and in fulfilling the aspirations of the people of South Africa.”
