We set these goals so that the decisions we take now are bolder and that we act with greater urgency. Our determination that within the next decade no person in South Africa will go hungry is fundamental to our effort to eradicate poverty and reduce inequality. In addition to creating employment and other economic opportunities, this means that we must strengthen the social wage and reduce the cost of living. It means we must improve the affordability, safety and integration of commuter transport for low-income households. While we have made great progress in providing housing - and this we heard very clearly as all of us were campaigning during the May elections - many South Africans still do not have land to build homes and earn livelihoods.
