PRESIDENTIAL travels are inevitable especially in these days of globalisation where no man should be an island but understand the value of face to face contact between and amongst countries, South African High Commissioner to Zambia Sikose Mji has said.
Responding to a press query, Ms Mji noted that the ordinary citizens in every country including South Africa always complained about a President travelling a lot.
She pointed out that no man was an island but that citizens failed to understand the value of face to face contact between and amongst countries.
Ms Mji explained that a lot of problems and challenges that countries faced such as migration, xenophobia, human trafficking, cross border crime and others could not be resolved on paper but during discussions that were held.
He said that ordinary citizens failed to grasp the importance of Presidential travels because resources from the tax payers were being used.
