Durban, Nov 12 (CNA) -- Commonwealth Secretary General Chief Emeka
Anyaoku stressed here today many Commonwealth countries are entering the
new century on a footing of insecurity and that the Commonwealth and the
wider international community must wage a relentless campaign against
xenophobia and intolerance.
Addressing the biennal conference of the 54-member grouping, made up
largely of former British colonies, he said he leaves the Commonwealth next
year with a renewed faith about its ability to be a continuing source of
hope.
