CHAIRPERSON
Thank you for coming today.   You are indeed a survivor of the struggle, and in a sense one can only appreciate why we have got where we are today because it is made up of people like yourself, women with the hearts of warriors, and who with all of that have managed to sustain some kind of belief system in their selves and have still managed to go forward.   You dream of being a doctor, you dream of being - of furthering your studies.  And I think that if you join the army, at least that opportunity will be given to you.   We have heard what you say.   I think the recommendations you make that the conditions in the prisons, particularly for women, need to be looked at very carefully.   I also think that there needs to be some kind of counselling for both you and your son, because the mental scars are still there.   But we salute your courage and we hope that we will be able to assist you in some of the things that you have talked about.   Thank you for coming today and being part of this special day.
