**Analysis**
The text appears to be related to the human rights situation in southern Africa, specifically in South Africa and Namibia, and the efforts of the United Nations to address the violations of human rights in these countries. The text mentions the Commission on Human Rights, the Sub-Commission on Prevention of Discrimination and Protection of Minorities, and the Special Rapporteur, which suggests that the focus is on human rights and international relations.
