=Proposed renaming of street after Janusz Walus in Poland=

The Young Communist League of South Africa (YCLSA) is extremely astounded and shocked about the right-wing activist, Pawel Komosa from Poland who has petitioned the Radom City Council demanding the name of one of the city streets to be renamed after Janusz Walus.

This according to us shows that Komosa is nothing else, but an agent provocateur not to the South African Communist Party (SACP) and the citizens of South Africa, but to the international Communists and all other left forces in the world. Who are still committed to the cause of socialism and anti-imperialism, and the challenges of socialism after the strategic demise of the Soviet Bloc?

His right-wing campaign to change the name of the street is an insult to the world left forces, the citizens of Poland and South Africans in particular. The assassin Janusz Walus is serving a life sentence for his cowardly and brutal killing of Chris Hani and his actions we were intended to stall freedom and peace in South Africa and the diplomatic relations that South Africa enjoys with other countries of the world including Poland.

As the YCLSA we are strongly calling for the community of Radom City and Poland in particular to strongly desist and reject this right-wing campaign.

This is a coincidence of history whereby the left forces are celebrated the life and times of Chris Hani and his contribution to the struggle for socialism whilst on the other side we have lunatics who are strongly campaigning for one of his assassins to be honoured.

As the Young Communist League we call on our allies across the world to mount pressure on the Radom City Council against this reactionary campaign to honour Janusz Walus not to succeed. Chris Hani was a paragon of the revolution not only in South Africa, but also in Poland given the setbacks suffered by the left as a result of the strategic demise of the socialist bloc in the early 1990’s.
