It was  this act which saw the people of South Africa unite in calling for the  release of Prisoner 46664. Using his own experiences he fought for the  justice of other South African\u2019s, while sacrificing his own freedom. He  transformed South Africa and in doing so touched us all. <\/font><\/div>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n<font size=\"2\" face=\"Arial\"> <\/font>&#13;<\/p>\n<div><font size=\"2\" face=\"Arial\">\u00a0<\/font><\/div>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n<font size=\"2\" face=\"Arial\"> <\/font>&#13;<\/p>\n<div><font size=\"2\" face=\"Arial\">He taught us to unite in our struggles and believe  in the notion of freedom. From his life we take peace and accept that  above all humanity and humour will prevail; and as Madiba once said,  \u201cThe brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers  that fear.\u201d \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/font><\/div>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n<font size=\"2\" face=\"Arial\"> <\/font>&#13;<\/p>\n<div><font size=\"2\" face=\"Arial\">\u00a0<\/font><\/div>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n<font size=\"2\" face=\"Arial\"> <\/font>&#13;<\/p>\n<div><font size=\"2\" face=\"Arial\">The Asian Today would like to take this opportunity  to pay our respect to Nelson Mandela.
