However, SACU has not been without its fair share of challenges. Implementation of the provisions of the reviewed agreement (SACU 2002 Agreement which entered into force in July 2000) is still a problem. SACU is in the process of establishing a future strategy for engaging into a deeper integration agenda, namely that of becoming an economic community. There is a need to address the broader regional agenda of possible involvement in the Tripartite FTA process. SACU is faced with an intra- regional crisis, especially in Swaziland.
