This is a milestone that demands worldwide recognition. and I applaud our United States Congress for taking this role. The Kingdom of Lesotho is a parliamentary constitutional monarchy that has been an independent country since 1966. Often referred to as the "Kingdom in the Sky." Lesotho was a strong public supporter of ending apartheid in South Africa. and was known for granting political asylum to numerous refugees during that era. Lesotho is a lowincome country with a gross national income per capita of $960. and 50 percent of its people live below the poverty line. However. its Government has demonstrated a strong commitment to ruling justly. investing in its people. ensuring economic freedom. as well as controlling corruption.
