President Jacob Zuma says Mitchell's Plain can count on the government's full support in its fight against gangs and drugs.
Zuma praised residents, saying that Mitchell's Plain already had a good track record in the fight against crime, and he pledged more support.
The president was addressing a large crowd who attended a festival marking the suburbs 35th birthday.
Police recently launched a 30-day lockdown of Mitchell's Plain after the death of two street committee members, Mervyn Jacobs and Vincent Naidoo, who had been campaigning against drug sellers in the area.
Zuma also appealed to coloured and African communities to make their "divisions" a thing of a past.
