MINISTERS
On a recent visit to Malawi , Mr Mbeki (President of South Africa) is met at the airport by the country's Minister of Harbours.
It takes a while, but then Mr Mbeki realizes that this is actually quite absurd...after all, Malawi has no harbours - it is landlocked!
In his state of confusion, he decides to find out what the story is...
At the official state banquet later that same night, he leans over across to the president and asks: "Mr President why do you have a Minister of Harbours when you don't have any harbours?"
The president looks Mr Mbeki straight in the eye and says: "Well, funny you should ask Mr Mbeki, I am just as puzzled as to why you have a
Minister of Law and Order?"
