Special Report Transcript Episode 85, Section 2, Time 00:41

But we kick off with something rather unusual for the Special Report. This is the 85th edition of this programme; it is also the third last programme. The last one will be broadcast in two weeks time. We thought it a good time to look at the big picture of the Truth Commission process; to look back over the last two years and ask. Has the process been successful? How much truth have we had? Has the Truth Commission contributed to national reconciliation or has it indeed been counterproductive as some of its critics claim? I have four very interesting public personalities in the studio to discuss these questions with me. In Johannesburg is Dr Maki Mandela, director of human resources at Spoornet and Donald Woods, journalist, author and former newspaper editor. In Cape Town we have Mr. Abraham Mzizi, IFP member of parliament and Professor Herman Giliomee, UCT academic and political commentator. Good evening to you all. Maybe we should start in Cape Town.
