Hon Chairperson, on behalf of the DA I move without notice:
That the Council -
1) congratulates Commander Thamsanqa Matsane on becoming the first black submarine commander to take up the reins of the SAS Queen Modjadji;
2) notes that he grew up in Bosbokrand in Mpumalanga and what makes it more remarkable is that this is far from the sea;
3) acknowledges that he obtained his BSc degree and is the father of two children. We, as South Africans, are proud of Thamsanqa!
Motion agreed to in accordance with section 65 of the Constitution.
