Operation Hlasela donated R35 000 to Setshaba Marumo who published his motivational book- Be the best that you can.
Speaking at the launch of his book at the windmill casino and entertainment centre in Bloemfontein, said: “I would like to thank Ace Magashule the Premier of the Free State and the Operation Hlasela for donating R35 000 to me to publish my print book. Each person should be the best that you can be,”
Rosaline Raseboya Sebolao, a motivational speaker and author of Living a life that is pleasing to God, said; “When Marumo asked me to mentor him, I agreed. I saw so much potential in him. Be blessed as you enjoy his first book that he launched today,”
Fezile Wetes, HR consultant of SEDA said, “I have known Marumo for many years. I have seen him becoming what he is, and this is the most wonderful time for him to be alive. It takes a nation a lot of time to produce a hero. His passion for reading and writing enabled him to launch his first book,”
Captain Mosela Tshangela from Parkroad Police Station in Bloemfontein said; “On 20 August 2010, D.J Shaxe Khumalo from Motheo FM talked about Setsha’s book. I was inspired and I bought a copy and I wish everybody can have his or her copy,”
Aubrey Nappie [41] Human Resources Manager at the Windmill Casino and Entertainment Centre said; “The Corporate Social Investment arm of the windmill casino did a media release about the launch of the book. During the book launch we provided the venue catering to the event, and we bought several copies of the book.”

I'm not quite aware of the extent of operation hlasela's reach in terms of helping out communities, but wish to take this moment to commend them for the great work done to fund the author for the publication of the book. I wish such benevolent gestures may extend to many other writers around South Africa, especially the Free State ones with their vivaciousness and dedication to writing.
