such as South Africa’s idle mining disputes and active involvement in the color-coded famed music industry organizations within the district. “As an organization we have seen that in order to achieve this goal of creating peace and stability in this environment, we must stand on the side of the youth, giving them livelihood opportunities because now they are crying out for jobs.
