Update on Mandela Burial

President Zuma has announce that the first black president of Africa will be buried on Dec 15, 2013 at his rurial home in Qunu. A public memorial service for the late iconic leader will be held at the Johannesburg stadium in south Africa.

Mandela's body will lie in state at government buildings in Pretoria from Wednesday, December 11, until the burial, and this coming Sunday, December 8, will be a national day of prayer and reflection.

Well I personally think that its too early for the funeral. They should give the public a little more time to mourn such a great leader. He change the world. He fought for racial discrimination against black.

What do you think?
