We were recognised on the basis of ethics and initiatives that demonstrates exceptional success in quality management.<\/p>\n<p>This shows that LAA is in the right direction,\u201d Ms Sekhants\u2019o said. \u201cWe appreciate commitment by the LAA staff. We wouldn\u2019t have received this recognition if it wasn\u2019t of them.<br \/>\nShe said the LAA was selected among 43 companies, public administration and organisations representing 38 countries and different sectors from Africa, Europe, Asia, America and Australia that were recognised by the ESQR.<\/p>\n<p>Ms Sekhants\u2019o said what made the award even sweeter is that it comes when the LAA is celebrating 12 years of existence this year. On her part, Local Government and Chieftainship Deputy Minister, \u2018Mathato Phafoli, congratulated the LAA for the recognition.<\/p>\n<p>Phafoli appealed to Basotho to support the Authority so that it can achieve its mandate. \u201cI appeal to Basotho to support this institute, by paying ground rent so that it can continue to strive for excellence.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLand is a treasure which needs to be protected for future generations. This could be achieved through registering it with LAA to keep proper records\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>The LAA in November 2021 scooped a Special Achievement Geographic Information System (GIS) Award for usage of the latest technology to advance land administration services in the country.
