MITCHELL'S PLAIN

LAILA MAJIET

A dangerous life in the slum is athing of the past for five familiesfrom the Uitkykbos informal set-tlement.After years of living in shacks

next to Lansdowne Road in Hano-ver Park, the families are now “liv-ing happily on prime location nearthe beach” in Strandfontein.However, Strandfontein resi-

dents are up in arms about theirnew neighbours.City of Cape Town officials relo-

cated the families last Monday tothe 7de Laan informal settlementjust off Spine Road.Uitkykbos is on a road reserve

which means electricity cablescannot be installed for the 13 or sofamilies living there, promptingthe relocation.Someof the familieshadbeen liv-

ing at the Hanover Park shacklandfor over 10 years, without flushingtoilets and electricity.But they say this was the least of

their worries as crime was rife inthe small community.With only 45 people living in the

tiny settlement hidden betweentrees off Lansdowne Road, somesay drug smuggling and violentcrimes were rampant.Magdalene Kampher (47) had

been living at Uitkykbos for a yearafter life on the streets.Her home in Hanover Park had

been gutted in a blaze in 2007, leav-ing her and her family homeless.With three children – aged nine,

12 and 14 – Kampher is glad to have

relocated to Strandfontein.“We only want the best for our

children. Living in such a volatileenvironment is no way for a childto growup. It is a lotmorepeacefulhere,” she explains.Kampher rebuilt her shack in

7de Laanwith the help of City offi-cials. “The officials provided uswith a starter kit of zinc sheets,plastic sheeting and nails. Usingthat and some of my own materi-als which the City had helpedtransport to Strandfontein, myhusband and I built a large homefor our family,” she explains.However, with only six zinc

sheets, black plastic sheeting hasbeen used as a roof.Mandy van Willingh has been

living in Strandfontein for 35years. She has been volunteeringat the 7de Laan informal settle-ment for several years, helpingthe squatters empower them-selves. She also assists to feed 7deLaan residents.Rubbing her up the wrong way

is the relocation of families fromUitkykbos. “The 7de Laan infor-mal settlement is being allowed tomushroom out of control as Cityofficials and Law Enforcementbring in families from outside ofStrandfontein. We do not want aBlikkiesdorp on our doorstep,”Van Willingh explains.Ward committee member

Bernie Clarke believes the squat-ter camp devalues properties inthe area.“Our properties are being

threatened.Therehasbeenanota-ble increase in house break-ins since these informal set-tlements popped up,” shesays.To page 2

Mayoral Committee member for HumanSettlements, Tandeka Gqada, had previous-ly said: “No informal structures are allowedto be built anywhere, but homeless familiesbuild them without authorisation.”But subcouncil chairperson George

March counters this, saying informal struc-tures are only allowed to be built in desig-nated zones.“Areas where it is not permitted for peo-

ple to build their homes in-clude pavements or road re-serves, flood plains andland that is either privatelyowned, or has been ear-marked for development,”he explains.Strandfontein East Rate-

payers’ Association chair-person Mario Oostendurpquestions how City officialsare being allowed to relo-cate families to an illegal in-formal settlement.He questions why

Uitkykbos residents hadbeen moved off a road re-serve when squatters livingat an informal settlement inThe Leagues in Philippihave not.“It seems as if the rules

that apply here do not nec-essarily apply elsewhere inthe city,” Oostendurp says.Ward councillor Irma

Jackson had informed resi-dents that she would not al-low the settlement to growas it is already bursting atthe seams, he adds.“We cannot afford to have

more people move intoStrandfontein as we havevery limited resources interms of healthcare, school-ing and recreational facili-ties,” Oostendurp says.In an attempt to get clari-

ty about the situation,Clarke turned to Strandfon-tein ward councillor IrmaJackson.However, Clarke has now reached boiling

point due to Jackson’s “non-response”.“Her response to my email was ‘Thanks,

enjoy your day’,”Clarke seethes.

At the time of going to print, Jackson hadfailed to respond to the numerous calls andemails made by People’s Post in a bid to ob-tain her comment.

WITH just six months until the anticipatedroll-out of the MyCiTi bus service in Mitch-ell’s Plain and Khayelitsha, construction isyet to begin.The development of the routes of the new

MyCiTi bus route, which will link the twosuburbs to the city centre, is still underway.City of Cape Town officials are at this

stage unable to divulge the planned routesfor the service.However, construction of theMyCiTi bus

stations is expected to begin only once theroutes have been finalised.Although the routes are not yet cast in

stone, Mayoral Committee member forTransport, Brett Herron, says the service isstill expected to start in December.“The routes will be finalised in time for

our deadline. The N2 will be a key elementof the route,” he says.Taxi bosses remain concerned about

their integration with the new servicewhich will merge with their routes.Taxi operators are in ongoing negotia-

tions with the City.Henry “Hawk” Williams, the secretary

general of the Mitchell’s Plain Taxi Forum,says 85% of commuters use taxis to get tothe CBD, the remainder using Golden Ar-row. “We built the transport industry inMitchell’s Plain andwewant tomanage theMyCiTi service which will operate in ourarea,” he says.With a shared goal of providing safe, reli-

able and efficient public transport, Wil-liams believes taxi operators are “morethan capable” of managing the new busservice.Williams represents the Route 6 Taxi As-

sociation responsible for the only routewhichtravels to the CBD.Route 6 has 156 permits from Mitchell’s

Plain to the CBD, owned by 72 taxi owners.“Taxi drivers’ earnings will be affectedshould the MyCiTi buses operate our routesand not incentivise our drivers,” Williamssays.Engagements with members of the trans-

port industry affected by the N2 Express arehowever still continuing, Herron explains.Meanwhile, the disabled community say

the new bus service can’t pull up in Mitch-ell’s Plain soon enough.Taswell Williams is a quadriplegic from

Beacon Valley. The 29-year-old has formonths been calling for accessible publictransport for the disabled.He worries that the roll-out of the MyCiTi

bus service in the area will be delayed asconstruction of bus stations is yet to begin.“There is a great need for universally ac-

cessible transport in Mitchell’s Plain asthere are many disabled people in the area

whohave to rely on thehelp of others to trav-el. We don’t want special treatment, we justwant our basic right to transport to be satis-fied,” Williams explains.The low-floorMyCiTi buses ensure access

for all, including the elderly, wheelchair us-ers and those with luggage and prams.

Pupils at Glendale High were locked out forarrivingminutes after the bell had sounded.However, principal Achmat Chotia saysthis is a tough lesson which needs to betaught.Some parents were left fuming after theywere forced to return to the WeltevredenRoad school to pick up their children, butschool authorities defended the move, say-ing parents had been warned.An irate mother, Azelda Leibrandt, is upin arms after her two sons were sent homeon Monday 10 June after arriving five min-utes late.The boys were part of a group of about 20latecomers who had been forced to sit out-side the school gates while the rest of theirpeers wrote exams.Pupils who arrived late were then in-structed to come back to school after the bellrings at the end of the day, Chotia says.“Extra invigilators were arranged and thepupils returned to school later that day towrite their exams.”Chotia says some of the latecomers are re-peat offenders.But Leibrandt says compulsory attend-ance is prescribed by the national educationdepartment and “children shouldnot be senthome when arriving late for school”.“They need to be in the classroom. Thestreets is no place for our children, as drugsand gangsterism is waiting around everycorner for an unsuspecting child. They

should be allowed into the classroom despitebeing late,” she seethes.Her sons Warren and Allistair travel bytaxi.“The taxi driver they travel with has been

having troublewith his vehicle,” Leibrandtexplains.However, Chotia says the pair hardly ev-er arrive at school on time.“Their taxi driver can never make it toschool on time in the mornings, but he isalways first to arrive at the school in theafternoon to collect the children,” the prin-cipal says.Only two parents had complained to theschool, Chotia adds.“If a child is late every day andmisses thefirst period, by the end of the week thatchild would have missed out on an entireday of school,” he says.Colleen Horswell, the chairperson of theMitchell’s Plain Education Forum, salutesthe school for taking a stand against late-coming.“These pupils are being taught to be re-sponsible adults who are punctual. Therules of the school need to be adhered to asthat is where discipline begins,” she says.“Education unlocks so many opportuni-ties for our youth. It is therefore imperative

that children do not miss out on valuabletime in the classroom,” Horswell says.The provincial education department hasvouched their support for schools’ efforts todeal firmly with latecomers.Provincial education department spokes-person, Paddy Attwell, says: “Latecomersdisrupt classes for other pupils and theirteachers. We advise schools to allow late-comers into the school grounds, but to keepthem away from classes until after the firstperiod, so that they do not disrupt classesthat are underway.”Parents unhappy with the way in whichthe school dealt with the latecomers canlodge a formal complaint with the SchoolGoverning Body.“District officials will investigate if theparents concerned lodge a formal com-plaint,” Attwell says.

A campaign is to get underway this week toeducate the public about lane closures.As part of a pilot project, the City of Cape

Town has decided to close 57 lanes notoriousfor criminal activities.Closure of the problematic walkways was

announced in October (“Lane closures onthe cards”, People’s Post, 9 October).Residents living next to the lanes are re-

quired to submit a formal application to getthe ball rolling.Aspart of the campaign, application forms

will be handed out to residents living nearthe lanes which have been earmarked to beclosed.

Subcouncil chairperson Eddie Andrewssays the lane closures follow residents’ com-plaints about unsavoury and criminal activ-ities happening in the thoroughfares.“The lanes are used by people to smoke

drugs, drink alcohol and as an escape routefor criminals,” Andrews says.The alleys are the legacy of spatial plan-

ning inMitchell’s Plainduringapartheid, headds.Illegal dumping has also become a prob-

lem in the lanes.There are 270 lanes inMitchell’s Plain, but

not all of them can be closed. Funding hasbeen set aside to close 57 of these.These walkways run between buildings

and houses and are used as links between

open public spaces and main transportroutes. “The bulk of the lanes which will beclosed is in Westridge,” he says.This has some councillors fuming as they

deem the process of deciding which laneswould be closed as unfair.Councillor for ward 79, Solomon Philan-

der, says there are many problematic lanesin Mitchell’s Plain – such as in Beacon Val-ley - whichwill not be closed during the pilotproject. “However, we can continue to applyfor lane closures in the hopes that our appli-cations will be successful,” says.The 57 lanes considered for closure are in

Westridge, Portlands and Woodlands.“It was an unfair process as all the prob-

lematic lanes outside of ward 78 had been

overlooked,” Philander says.As this is apilot projectmore lane closures

can be expected in the future, Andrews says.“The City of Cape Town has drawn up cri-

teria to identify which other lanes will beclosed once this pilot project is complete,”he says.Property owners are also able to buy the

lanes.“The Property Management department

facilitates the entire process. The applicantwould have to formally submit a request tothem. The department then sends the re-quest to all line departments for comment.Their response then comes to subcouncil forapproval or refusal of the recommendation,”Andrews adds.

It’s a substance that causes heart-ache, violence, crimeandpsychosis.

Thousands of families from Tafel-sig toTableVieware affected by thisscourge plaguing affluent and im-poverished areas, but there is stilla long way to go before its legacy iswiped from the streets.

Tomorrow (Wednesday 26 June)marks International Day AgainstDrug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking.

But while anti-drug societies willcontinue to spread the word aboutits dangers, hooked users will carryon lighting up.

Natasha lit her first hit of ungahfive years ago.

She has lost her family, friendsand dignity to her addiction.

She doesn’t plan to kick her habitsoon.

The 22-year-old has previouslyslept with drug merchants for apacket of the dagga and heroin mix-ture.

Once she had sex with a petrol at-tendant for R5 to help cover the costof a hit.

Natasha has stolen from her fami-ly and has been arrested for theft.And, while she admits to being anaddict, she knows she will never

again catch the high she experi-enced when she first lit up.

“Everyone was doing it and Ithought I would give it a try. It wasamazing,” she recalls. “I was in aworld of my own. I forgot about myabusive dad, my gangster brother,my worries about passing matric.For that moment, everything wasfine,” she says.

But coming down from the highleft her feeling worse.

“The next time makes you feelhappy and the next just makes youfeel fine. Eventually I would use justto feel normal.”

If she could re-do her life, shewouldnever pickup the foil and sub-stance that “turned [her] life upsetdown”.

“It’s not worth it. I’m here, but itfeels like someone else is controllingmy movements. I don’t know whereIwill be tomorrow – all I think aboutis my next high.”

Natasha lives with a small-timedrug merchant after her motherkicked her out.

“She sent me packing after I stolethe rent money. She once caught mestealing my brother’s cellphone andI sold the toaster for R30,” she sayswith an uneasy laugh.

“You know how you feel if you ha-ven’t eaten for 12 hours? That’show you feel shortly after a hit,until you get your next fix.You’ll do anything to get it.”

While drugs remains amajorplague in the province, minor

inroads have been made to decreasethe alarming number of users, saysAshley Potts, the director of the CapeTown Drug Counselling Centre.

“The struggle continues to put ahandle on this issue, but interven-tions and co-operations with govern-ment and the police is helping in in-

creasing awareness and assist-ance,” he says.

“However, there is still a ma-jor lack of resources available toaddicts. There are too few low-cost and no-cost treatment facil-ities and this will remain a hur-dle until funds are made availa-ble.”

Most of those seeking assist-ance from the counselling cen-tre are from areas like HanoverPark, Manenberg, Mitchell’sPlain and Parkwood, Potts ex-plains.

“But this doesn’t mean thatdrugs aren’t used by those liv-ing in the leafy suburbs. Theyhave the financial resourcesbook into private treatment cen-tres, while those who fall intothe lower-income group havelimited options.”

Drug addiction doesn’t onlyaffect the young and naive.

Jocelyn has lost everythingbecause of her tik addiction.

Five years ago she was a 30-something housewife, raisingtwo toddlers with a supportivehusband.

“I threw it all away for drugs,”she says.

It is only 09:00 and she is al-ready on her second hit for theday.

“I don’t want drugs – I needit.”

She hasn’t seen her daughterssince she left her home in themiddle of the night in 2008.

“I am so ashamed. My hus-band tried to help me come offit by locking me in a room. Butit didn’t work – I didn’t want itto work,” she says.

Jocelyn first tried tik with aneighbourwho “wanted to expe-rience something new”.

“I was bored and thought Iwould give it a shot. My life re-volved around cleaning thehouse, cooking and looking af-ter the kids. It was a mundaneexistence; I needed excitement,”she says.

Jocelyn hardly felt the effectsof her first hit. “The next day Igave it another try and I washooked. I felt inspired, like somekind of superwoman. The housewas gleaming within an hourand I suddenly felt like garden-ing. I could do anything,” she re-calls.

At first, one hit a day wasenough.

“Then I wanted it more often.

I needed it to do day-to-daythings. Without it, I was a mon-ster. I didn’t want my childrennear me, I verbally abused myhusband and I just wanted to bealone. I knew Iwas an addict, butit’s hard to admit it.”

Her habit remained a secretuntil she started cutting back ondaily expenses for drug money.“One day my husband just askedme if I was doing drugs. I startedcrying; I was too humiliated toadmit it. I was the person parentswarn their children of becoming– a tikkop.”

She accepted her husband’s of-fer to help. He sent their childrento live with his mother and tookleave to stay with her.

“After two days I ran away.You lose your mind. You seethings that aren’t there; it feelslike your body is turning againstyou. I just couldn’t do it.”

She escaped through a bed-room window and never re-turned.

“I left my husband a letter ask-ing him not look for me; I wouldcome back when I cleaned up. Istill haven’t managed that,” sheadmits.

Addiction is a disease that willnever be cured, drug counsellorGerald Clark says.

He has been drug-free for 17years but still labels himself amandrax addict.

“It’s a feeling you never shakeoff. You never forget the high youonce chased but you livewith thepain you caused your loved ones.Drugs doesn’t just affect theuser,it changes the lives of entire fam-ilies.”

For three nights a week he vis-its church support groups forparents living with addicts. “It isheart-wrenching to see mothersshed tears because their childrenabuse them, or fathers breakdown because their kids are rob-bing themblind. Youngsterswhoonce had bright futures arelocked in a cycle they won’t getout of on their own. And theamount of children choosing thislife grows by the day.”

Potts insists addicts are “notbad people”, but are “victims ofa disease”. “Public perception isderogatory towards addicts. Butto properly address the problem,a better understanding of addic-tion is essential. The addict is notevil; the substance they use caus-es them to do bad things.”

Streets under siegeDRUG ADDICTION: CAPE TOWN’S BIGGEST BATTLE


LAILA MAJIET

A road notorious for smash-and-grabs mayno longer be a worry for anxious motorists.

The City of Cape Town is going to installstreet lights along Vanguard Drive – to thetune of almost R2m.

The intersections at Morgenster Roadand Vanguard Drive, Highlands and Van-guard drives as well as at the R300 and Van-guard Drive have been identified ashotspots for smash-and-grabs.

Thieves break the windows of vehicles,snatching cellphones, wallets and hand-bags.

The City’s Department of Public Lightinghas set out to brighten up the busy road andwill complete the project early next year.

Ward councillor Natalie Bent says fullyfunctional masts towering 13.5m have al-ready been erected, reducing the chances ofmotorists being attacked by thugs lurkingin the shadows.

The installation follows a string of com-plaints from residents and the ColoradoPark Community Policing Forum (CPF) at-testing to the lack of lighting on VanguardDrive, Bent explains.

Colorado Park CPF chairperson, MarkBrookes, says many residents living at theSiqalo informal settlement on VanguardDrive walk the streets after dusk.

He says light will also reduce crime andimprove visibility for motorists, as Siqaloresidents zig-zag between oncoming cars.

Some say pedestrians have little concernfor their safety.

However, with a row of new double poststreet lights installed on the traffic islandalongVanguardDrivebetween theR300 andMorgenster Road, visibility of pedestrianshas improved for motorists, Brookes says.

“The neighbourhood watch has oftenstruggled tomonitor this stretch of roaddueto poor lighting. Thankfully, this is no long-er a problem,” he adds.

A trip to a mall has a shopper gnashing hasteeth in frustration.

Anthony Erasmus visited the LibertyPromenade Shopping Centre, only to finishhis shopping and see that his car had beenknocked.

The rear-end of the vehicle had been dam-aged while the car was parked outside themall.

Parked near a CCTV camera, he was cer-tain the culprit would be caught on tape.However, the camera closest to the parkingspace where he had left his car had been outof order at the time of the incident.

Luckily for Erasmus, his car is insured.But he worries about those who may nothave insurance.

“Shoppers’ safety needs to be prioritised.You cannot have security cameras that areout of order, especially at a mall in Mitchell’sPlain where criminals are just waiting foran opportunity to pounce. The problem tran-scends beyond my car being damaged,” heexplains.

Fuzlin Sinclair, the operational servicesmanager at Liberty Promenade ShoppingCentre, says they had been aware that thecamera was out of order and had thereforetaken the necessary precautionary meas-ures. “While awaiting replacement parts torepair the camera, a security guard was sta-tioned in the vicinity to ensure security visi-bility,” she explains.

However, the security guard did not wit-ness the incident, Erasmus says.

The camera is expected to be repaired dur-ing the course of the week.

“Technicians are currently working

around the clock to have the camera in opera-tion,” Sinclair says.

Shoppers’ safety is one of the priorities ofcentre management, Sinclair declares.

“We have high-performance cameras onsite which are strategically positioned, al-lowing for effective surveillance monitor-ing,” she says.

Erasmus claims to have been informedby security guards that certain camerashave been out of order for as long as threemonths.

However, Sinclair disputes this.“With the exception of the one camera un-

dergoing repairs, all other cameras on theproperty are operational and is monitoredaround the clock by a highly specialisedsurveillance team,” she adds.

Erasmus says people should not take forgranted that CCTV cameras will keep aneye out for their safety.

“Shoppers need to be vigilant when in the

parking lot,” he says.A security guard stationed at Pick n Pay

in the Promenade was stabbed by a teenageron Friday 31 May. Jarett van Vuuren, thePick n Pay Western Cape general manager,says: “Security guards stopped a group ofyouths, who were suspected of stealing choc-olate from the sweet aisle, as they left thestore. A scuffle broke out between two secu-rity guards and the group of youth. In thescuffle, one of the security guards wasstabbed by one of the youths. The case hasbeen handed over to the police.”

Rocklands residents are calling onPresident Jacob Zuma to join themin casting out notorious gangstersand drug lords from the impover-ished community.Children are being lured into

gangs and trainedashitmen for theongoing gang war in the area.Members of the Mitchell’s Plain

Community Policing Forum be-lieve the youth need to be educatedand offered an alternative to drugsand gangsterism.CPF chairperson Abie Isaacs be-

lieves education is key in gettingthe youth out of gangs and reinte-grating themback into the commu-nity. “Our children need to be en-couraged to participate in sports,music and drama.Weneed to teach

our children to create employmentopportunities for themselves asjobs are scarce,” he says.Proportional Representative

ANC councillor, JeremiahThuynsma, says the presidentneeds to come into the area andwitness the ongoing gang violenceand drug epidemic that residentsbattle everyday.“People are running out of op-

tions andwe need national govern-ment to step in and help eradicatedrugs and gangsterism in this com-munity,” he says.“There is so much potential in

our youth, potential that is goingto waste because of the many drugdealers and gangs operating inMitchell’s Plain.”A candlelight vigil was held at

the Rocklands Civic Centre on

Wednesday to discuss the way for-ward in addressing the scourge ofgang violence in Mitchell’s Plain.The vigil was held in honour of

those who have died as a result ofdrug abuse and gang violence inthe area.“We want to lobby all three

spheres of government to work to-gether in the fight against drugs,gangsterism and crime. Thereshould be no political divides thatprevent us from dealing with thisproblem,” Thuynsma says.Residents at the vigil encour-

aged police to investigate drugdealers and gang kingpins.“Besides arresting the dealer,

the investigation needs to focus onthe asset forfeiture applications,”one resident says.Another resident believes busi-

nesses in the area need to ploughback into the community and in-vest in the youth.“Weneed to lobby local business-

es to give back by establishing ini-tiatives that focus on keeping theyouth off the streets,” another resi-dent suggests.

NADINE MOODIE

Afternearly 20years of democracySouthAfri-ca is still battling to break through the claspof apartheid.Despite labels like “Rainbow Nation” and

terms such as “equality” spoken each day,some still feel the effects of the past.With the commemoration of the 1913 Na-

tives’ Land Act last week, the strides still tobemade towards attaining true equality werebrought home.The Department of Rural Development and

Land reform will mark the centenary of thisAct with the Project 2013 theme Reversing thelegacy of 1913 Natives Land Act, the State web-site says.Through thisAct, the site says,white people

had “ownership of 87% of land, leavingblack people to scramble for a mere 13%”.The Act allowed the regime to dispossess

non-whites of their land, conduct forced re-movals and, in many cases, have theirhomes were bulldozed.The dawn of democracy in 1994 brought

with it a glimmer of hope formany throughthe land restitution process.Marie Franswas 17 when her family was

forcefully removed from their Constantiahome in 1966.“It was winter when my family was

forced to move to Grassy Park. I rememberwishing to celebrate my 18th birthday inConstantia. That never happened,” shesays.“Most of the people were forced to move

to Heideveld and Bonteheuwel. We werefortunate becausemy father owned proper-ty in Grassy Park.”Following the opening of the land claim

process, Frans’ father founded theConstan-tia Restitution Beneficiaries Trust. “Hestarted writing a book about his life andplotted the last chapter to focus on his re-turn to Constantia,” she says.Her father, Christian William Petersen,

died in 2007.“We’ve been waiting for 19 years; it’s

been a longwait. Claimants are dyingwith-out getting their landback,while others arelosing patience. The Land Claims office didnot do thorough research. There are peoplewhodon’twant to go back toConstantia, be-cause they’re happywhere they are or can’tafford the high rates of the suburb. They donot want to rebuild their homes and lives,”she says.“Iwant to go back to the place ofmy child-

hood. I want to relive those happy memo-ries. Our land is vacant and I want to livethere again.”Some families were allowed to stay in

their homes as their documents were lost.Thiswas the case for the family of collage

artist and writer Peter Clarke. Moving thelargest part of the population to a small por-tion of land was a logistical nightmare,Clarke says, adding this could be why theirpapers were misplaced.

He was 44 when his family was relocatedfrom Simon’s Town to Ocean View in 1973.“Most of the residents were moved to

Ocean View and we were one of two non-white families left in Simon’s Town,” hesays. “A white woman who saw our light oneach night reported us to the authorities.Wewere moved to the Ocean View flats soonthereafter. It wasn’t difficult moving to theflats because most people knew each other.”Clarke does not want to return to Simon’s

Town. “I can’t seemyself living there again.The past is behind me. Whenever I’m in Si-mon’s Town Iwonder if the people are happythere; I never see people, I only hear dogsbarking. It is like going into a town whereghosts live.“Change is inevitable; you can’t place a

value on your past. I could go back and livethere, but the neighbourhood is not the

same.”Abraham Jacobs, whose family settled in

Bonteheuwel, lived in Tramway Road, SeaPoint. “In the past we were free, close toshops and travelling was easy. In Bonteheu-wel the south-easter is constantly blowingand forces you to make peace with the un-pleasantness.”Jacobs took the payout.“I just knew there was going to be contro-

versy. We were initially promised R32 500,but then they told us each familywas gettinga standard sum of R17 500. I took my moneyand did not go any further.”A new date (31 December 2018) has been

proposed for land claims. The bill will be de-bated in parliament.Email Nomfundo Gobodo, Chief Land

Claims Commissioner, at [email protected].

Paving that cost a Strandfontein resident apretty penny may soon be repaired after be-ing removed by the City of Cape Town.A line of paving and tarmac along Den-

negeur Avenue had recently been removedto install underground electrical cables.Irma Hendricks had been promised that

her paving would be repaired once theproject was completed.However, this has not happened.Hendricks is boiling mad, claiming she

has been sent from pillar to post for an-swers by the City of Cape Town.“After amonth of enquiries, City officials

informed me repairs would only be done inJuly as the City’s financial year draws toa close at the end of this month. This wasnot what we were promised when we wereinformed of the project,” she explains.Ernest Sonnenberg, the Mayoral Com-

mittee member for Utility Services, saysthe contractor is unable to do the repairsdue to being fully committed until the endof June, he explains.“Electricity Services rely on a contractor

to do the reinstatement work. The contrac-tor was requested on 3 May to have thework done. They committed to start thework within three weeks but when the sta-tus of the work was queried on 11 June, itwas found that the work could only be ac-commodated in July,” he says.Electricity Services have now requested

the Roads and Stormwater Department toappoint one of their contractors to do thework which is likely to get underway nextmonth.The sandy verge has left an unsightly

mess along the road.Hendricks complainsherhome isnowbe-

set with gritty swathes of sand.“I have to sweep my driveway every day.

We pay so much money to beautify ourhomes and our properties, only to have acontractor ruin it,” she fumes.Brick paving lifted from the verge has

been stacked next to neighbours’ drive-ways.Hendricks fears this might be stolen be-

fore the reinstatement work commences.“I won’t rest until the problem is ad-

dressed. The City does not wait for my tax-es, why should I wait longer than anticipat-ed for them to clean up after themselves,”Hendricks seethes.V To lodge a formal complaint, call the City’s Call

Centre on 0 0860 103 089 or email 2 [email protected].

A formal complaint may also be directed to the City’sOmbudsman.

It runs until Thursday 11July.

SPCA communicationsmanager Lise-Marie Greeff-Villet says: “We all love gor-geous cats and dogs, but thiscompetition is definitelynot a beauty contest. TheMutt and Meow of the Yearcompetition, apart from be-ing a fundraiser for theSPCA, aims to remind us allof the undeniable bond thatcan form between animaland owner, and the joy thatresults from these some-times life-changing rela-tionships.”

If you’re convinced yourdog is the best “best” frienda man can get or you thinkthere is no cat more lovea-ble than your furry feline,log on to www.muttandme-ow.co.za and share your sto-ry with the world and thepanel of judges, which in-cludes comedian Marc Lot-tering, radio and TV pre-senter Liezel van der West-huizen and presenterNatalie Becker.

Rabs, a striking white cat who broughtimmense comfort and joy in difficulttimes to her owners Carrie and HenryRossouw, was named the first Meow ofthe Year.

The winner of the Top Fundraiser cat-egory was four-year-old Yorkie-cross Lu-ni, whose owner Susan van Niekerkraised R2000 for the SPCA by encourag-

ing friends and family to vote for her petin the form of donations.

This year the SPCA hopes to exceedthe R20 000 raised last year.

A short list of finalists for the Mutt andMeow of the Year will be compiled ac-cording to public votes after which thejudging panel will choose the top threewinners in each category.

The Business Bridge works off a model de-veloped by Professor Michael Hay of the Lon-don Business School. The model focuses onbringing low-cost business training to smallbusiness owners, says the organisation’smarketing and communications manager Si-mone Franks.

One success story is Vuyokazis Dyantyifrom Lower Crossroads. She started her con-struction company from her home in 2009. Inthe beginning, the business consisted of onlyher and one employee, but after her trainingwith the Business Bridge, Dyantyi was ableto employ two people and her average month-ly sales have nearly tripled.

She says that before her training, her aver-age sales per month was around R3000.

Her sales are now roughly R10 000 toR11 000 a month. “With the help of a mentorand possible help with marketing, I can ex-pand my business to the size that I want itto be,” Dyantyi believes.

She eventually sees her company operat-ing internationally and employing over 500permanent employees.

The Business Bridge has trained 600 smallbusiness owners last year, Franks says, andalmost all have seen dramatic results.

“We’ve seen a rise in sales by 31% withinfour months of the course, and a rise of em-

ployees by 13%,” she says.The impact of the courses is wider than just

individual business.“Small business owners make up over 50%

of the GDP. Developing them targets povertydirectly and empowers people.”

These businesses are also most vulnerable.“Most small business owners fail withinthree years due to a lack of skills needed torun a business, such a putting together abudget and marketing the company,” Frankssays. This is why they run two courses, onefocusing on sales and the other on finance.

Business owners are chosen according tocertain criteria, Franks says. They have tohave been in business for at least six months,have one employee and a physical address.

But most importantly, the applicant musthave vision, Franks says.

Tutor Debby Satchel says the classes alsohelp entrepreneurs to develop personally.

“The business owners’ confidence levelsgrew. There was a realisation of the impor-tance of being able to sell yourself as well asyour business. There was a real pride in theirachievements both in the class and in theirown businesses,” Satchel says.

The courses are offered by around 50 tu-tors, who are recruited from business profes-sionals, entrepreneurs and business schoolbackgrounds. Although based in the CBD,the courses are offered on location throughtheir partners, Tsiba, Business Place and theSmall Enterprise Development Agency.

Imperial Primary hascome out tops.The school wascrowned champions atan inaugural maths com-petition for primaryschools in Mitchell’sPlain.Almost 400 childrenfrom 34 schools partici-pated.With two of its pupilsplacing in the top five,Imperial Primary willenjoy bragging rights un-til the next olympiad.Having scored thehighest marks, DeanJacobs, a Grade 7 pupil atImperial Primary, tookfirst prize.The Eastridge teenag-er is set to attend Bish-ops Diocesan College inRondebosch next year.He says placing firstout of 370 otherpupils cameasabig surprise.“It was an overwhelming feeling to win.Maths ismy favourite subject, butwedidnotknow what to expect,” he says.Zainab Samuels, a Grade 7 pupil at Impe-rial Primary, placed fourth in the competi-tion. She received a floating trophy.With children who were a lot more com-petitive than her, Samuels says she did notexpect this win.Imperial Primary principal, Colin Baron,says their win is testament to the hard workof teachers and pupils.“We are reaping the benefits of the seedswe sow. To have excelled against some of thebetter performing schools in Mitchell’sPlain has come as a surprise, but it high-lights the potential of our children and theirteachers,” he proudly says.Head of the maths department at ImperialPrimary, JohannesPrins, says: “Extra class-es, the use of efficient school resources aswell as the support of pupils’ parents, teach-ers and the principal was our recipe for suc-cess.”The top four schools are Imperial Prima-ry, Jamaica Primary, Searidge Park Prima-ry and Wespoort Primary.In preparation for the competition, pupils

attended Saturday workshops hosted bySpine Road High.Principal Riyaadh Najaar says frighten-ing statistics about the low number of ma-triculants passingMathematics encouragedhis staff to organise the olympiad.With under 500 pupils in Mitchell’s Plaintaking Mathematics in Grade 12, Najaarsays there is a need for a greater investmentin the subject. Of those pupils, 60% obtainless than 40%, he says.“This leaves a small total of pupils whowill be able to access the professional fieldsof engineering, medicine and accounting.“We wanted to promote a love for the sub-ject through this olympiad. It is importantfor us to ensure our children vie for theselucrative professions by giving them thetools to gain access to them,” he explains.Meanwhile, Emaan Luddy from PelicanPark Primary placed second overall.In joint third place was Aqeelah Minkiefrom Portland Primary and MarcelloMecloen from Eisleben Primary.In joint fourth placewas Samuels andKea-gan Symonds from Jamaica Primary.In joint fifth place was Yacoob Smith fromSearidge Park Primary and Nikita Murrayfrom Westville Primary.

It is still unclear how the teaching of anadditional African language will be im-plemented at schools next year.“They will never be able to implementit at the proposed time,” Paul Colitz, headof the Federation of Governing Bodies ofSouth African Schools, said.“Grade R does not have subjects and Idon’t know where or when they will fitit into Grade 1 classes.”This follows a statement by the provin-cial education department in which itstated that 10 of the 15 schools which of-fered Xhosa last year, stopped offeringthe language. The department said time-tables have become too full after the im-plementation of the curriculum and as-sessment policy statement.In her budget speech early this year,minister of basic education Angie Mot-shekga said her department would insti-tute the teaching of an additional Africanlanguage systematically. They want toimplement it in Grades R and 1 next yearand put it into practise in all grades overthe next 12 years.

WCED spokesperson Paddy Attwellsaid the 15 schools used their own initia-tivewhen they offered Xhosa – largely forGrade 4 to Grade 7 classes – as an addi-tional language. Four of the schools stilloffering the language had to extend theschool day to accommodate the teachingof the language. The fifth school uses timeallocated for other languages.Provincial education ministers willmeet to discuss the addition of an anotherlanguage next Sunday.Attwell said the WCED would elect tointroduce the language to the curriculumby means of a pilot project.Colitz said the introduction of an addi-tional African language is a good idea,but said there would be several practicalproblems.“Something that needs to be remem-bered is that parents lack interest in anAfrican language,” he said.“In the end the school governing bodieshave the final say.”V Do you think the introduction of an African lan-guage would be possible in January next year?Starting with the word “Post”, SMS you commentsto 32516.

Youth Month has extra special meaningfor a group of Mitchell’s Plain pupils.Crowned champions of an annual nash-eed competition, the teenagers fromDarul Arqam Islamic High School havenow set their sights on producing a CD.Pupils hit the right notes and helpedthe school take top honours in the highschool section of the boys’ nasheed com-petition last Monday.Harmony, drum and bass are just someof the elements that helped the school se-cure a win at the competition.A nasheed is an Islamic vocal acapella,at times accompanied with a drum.The winners from the Eastridge schooldelivered melodious tunes to a full houseat the Artscape Theatre.Hosted for the first time at the Art-scape, the competition has evolved intoa prestigious performing arts event host-ed by the Discover Islam Centre.The nasheed competition, comprisingof songs of praise to the Creator and Hisprophet (P.B.U.H), encourages the youthto use their vocal talents to express theirdevotion.Head judge Sheikh Ismail Londt show-ered the winning group with praise afterthe first round of the competition.The pupils developed a unique tone andsound that no other team could imitate,he said.“They have a beautiful varied range.The teampossesses a beautiful and subtlebass, a surprising pitch and certain

tweaks. They are good as a group andgood as individuals. They have danger-ous vocal moves and a beautiful sweetflow to their presentation,” he says.However, pupils say it was no easywin.Ridhaa Charles (18) says staying fo-cused was a big challenge.“We practiced for two months, sacri-ficed our breaks and stayed after schoolto rehearse. Sometimes we had to fight tokeep everyone motivated,” he explains.Shakeel Samuels (18) admits the sacri-fices were well worth it in the end.“Motivation from our teachers andfrom everyone in the group kept us go-ing,” he says.“It feels great to now have braggingrights.”This form ofmusic is part of theMiddleEasternMuslim culture and is a relative-ly fresh art form in Cape Town.While Cape Malay music reflects thehistory of South African slavery with anuniquely Arabesque style of singing, thenasheed reflects a love forGod, theProph-et and religion captured in emotive over-tone, organisers say.Darul Arqam Islamic High principal,Sheikh EbrahimDawood, says four yearsof participating coupled with the pupils’talent helped the group soar.“I hope that this plaque that we havewon will remain in Mitchell’s Plain forthe next decade,” he says.The winning group will have the hon-our of producing their CD under themen-torship of South African singer and song-writer, Zain Bhikha.

About 22% of South Africa’s disabled chil-dren are not enrolled at school.Andwhen pupils reach the age of 15, whenit is no longer compulsory for them to attendschool, there is a significant decrease in thenumber of disabled pupils who drop out.DrFaithKumalo, the chief director of careand support in public schools for theDepart-ment for Basic Education, said this is thebiggest problem the department faces.She was speaking at the recent nationalconference for orphans, children and youthswho are vulnerable due to HIV/Aids.According to the department’s statistics,108 240 disabled pupils were enrolled atschools in 2011.That same year a total of two million pu-pils had lost one or both their parents.A total of 468 298 children had lost boththeir parents in 2011, while 967 560 lost a fa-ther and 564 817 lost a mother.In the Western Cape, 34 853 children arewithout a father, 13 919 children without amother and 7 403 children without both par-ents.Kumalo says the challenges in schools arethe same faced by communities, such asHIV/Aids, abandoned children, hunger,

poverty, alcohol and drug abuse, crime, vio-lence against children and teenage pregnan-cies.The department’s programmes are aimedat eliminating these stumbling blocks.Therefore more than 60% of schools nolonger charge school fees, while 8,8 millionchildren receive a free meal at school daily.Poor pupils are also transported for free.Kumalo said the basic education depart-ment is doing its best to ensure that pupilsprogress as far as possible in school as stud-ies indicate improved education is anadvan-tage when it comes to sexual lifestyles.Children who attend school are less likelyto contract HIV/Aids than those who do notattend.The department’s support programme isnot only aimed at bettering the social needsof pupils, but to also overcome systemicstumbling blocks by creating safer schoolsand to ensure that there are trained teach-ers, curriculumsupport as well as sufficientlearning materials.

Registering to vote is as easy asone, two, three.

Courtney Sampson, the head ofthe Independent Electoral Com-mission in theWesternCape, sayslegislation requires a citizen tohave three things to be eligible toregister.

You need to be a South Africancitizen, have a green bar-coded IDand be registered to make yourmark.

Although you need to be 18 tocast your ballot, youmay registerfrom the age of 16.

“To register yourself to vote,legislation states that you have togo, in person, to an official of theIEC. It is the individual’s respon-sibility to get registered,” Samp-son explains.

The IEC has an office at eachmunicipality in the province,with seven offices in the MotherCity.

Visit during office hours in theweek to register.

Sampson says before an elec-tion the IEC has two registrationweekends during which theyopen all their voting stationsacross the province.

“This gives people the opportu-nity to get registered at the sta-tion where they will vote,” headds.

In preparation for the nationaland provincial elections next

year, the IEC has already had oneof two targeted communicationregistration drives.

“During these drives, we takethe officials to the people. Usuallywe do a pamphlet drive to let peo-ple know when we will be thereand afterwards we go out to regis-ter them at their homes,” he says.

“The first group we targetedthis year was people affected byan administrative change in theirvoting district. The second group,who we will be focusing on in Au-gust, will be places where lessthan60%of that area’s populationaren’t registered.”

The IEC also has fixed pointregistration drives where theydrop pamphlets to notify people ofa registration day and venuewhere they can register.

“This is usually at the votingstation. We always try to makethe process as easy as possible.”People’s Post took to the street

to find out if readers are regis-tered or planned on registeringfor the coming elections.

Sarah Johnson, a first-year uni-versity student, says shewas nev-er of legal age to vote so she hasn’tbeen registered, but plans to do sonow.

“I think it is important to takean interest in what’s happeningin the country, becausewe are thefuture and should have a choicein how that future will be,” shesays.

MikyleEverton says he is regis-tered and plans tomake hismark.

“People are always quick tohave an opinion after an electionwhen the results are announced,but did they try to make a differ-ence? Voting is somethingwe hadto fight hard for and I alwaysmake my vote count,” Evertonsays.

Another reader, who did notwant to be named, says she pre-fers not to get involved in politics.

“I haven’t registered and don’tthink I will because politics is anugly business. Everyone makespromises that don’t materialise.There will have to be a lot morechanges in our country before I’mconvinced to vote,” she say.

Sampson says although the IECvisits schools and universities,the percentage of registeredyoung voters remains problemat-ic. “Children born in 1994 turned18 last year and, despite visits toschools and universities, the fig-ures remain unacceptably low inthat age group,” he says.

If you are not sure whether youare still registered, you can SMSyour ID number to 32810 to checkyour details.

“If you move to a new area youhave to register in that new vot-ing district so that you can appearon their voters role,” Sampsonsays.

“If you are registered but won’tbe near your voting station on the

day of elections, you can apply tovote somewhere else. The princi-ple is to vote in the district youare registered in.”

He says the reason for this is toassist with the logistic planning.

It helps the IEC plan for howmany officials are needed in eacharea.

If for some reason your namedoes not appear on the voters roleon election day, Sampson says

you will be allowed to vote if youcan supply a proof of registration.

“When you register to votethere are two stickers – one getsput on the registration form andthe other in your ID book. Thesticker in your ID will be the onlyproof of registration that will beaccepted,” he says.V Are you registered to vote? Why or whynot? Starting with the word “Post”, SMSyour views to 32516.

I don’t know about other areas,but if people don’t know how to be-have when they take a drink, govern-ment should do something about it. Iwork in Rocklands where they givesoup andbread to the needy. The samepeople I see taking soup are first inline at the shebeens when it comes toAllPay. It is so sad to see children suf-fer under their parents’s disabilities.

. The new proposed trading hoursare enough, as the liquor consumersbecome louder as the evening goes on.As for Sundays, definitely no. BeaconValley looks disgusting on a Sundayafternoon, while the shebeen ownersmiles all the way to the bank.

Statesman. Elder. Father figure. Tata. Madiba. Icon.These are the termsused to describe former presidentNel-

son Rolihlahla Mandela.The country waits to hear how he is faring, with most ho-

ping he will recover well enough to return to the bosom ofhis family.Perhaps his greatest legacy is that he has helped steer the

ship that has become South Africa’s democracy from thebrinkof anarchy to equality. This is the bedrock of our coun-try’s celebrated democracy, one not even the assassinationof Chris Hani could derail.Incarcerated for a righteous battle, Mandela has lived his

own fight; his youth and his personal life offered at the stakeof sacrifice for freedom for all.In this, he is not unique. Martin Luther King. Ang San

Suu Kyi. William Wilberforce. Rosa Parks. The suffragettemovement in the US. They all come to mind as people whostood for liberties for all.In a TV interview Mandela cleverly deflected each ques-

tion by the interviewer. Attempts to get him to reveal thestory behind the story – themovers and shakers in the politi-cal playing field who were really responsible for shapingthis country into a democracy – all had the same response.Madiba simply said he was part of a team leading the coun-try. His responses had trumped the best of what apartheidspin doctors could ever produce.The question now is: will the country turn into a political

Wild West?As in any democracy there are likely pods of people arm-

ing themselves against some “gevaar”; others stacking upon baked beans circa 1992; and a few fence-sitters may yetdecide the grass is greener in others parts of the world. Andmanywill exploit the situation to spewpolitical rhetoric andeven incite civil disharmony.It is doubtful most South Africans are dim enough to be-

lieve the country will disintegrate based on the health andlife of one man, for this is what Mandela is.The onus is on us to ensure the continuance of his legacy

and the well-being of our nation.

Alcohol ads: at what cost?The alcohol industry will do their best to ob-struct Minister of Health Dr AaronMotsoal-edi’s efforts to ban alcohol advertising by us-ing well-planned soft targets.This (will reportedly result in) advertising

revenue loss to the media, the tax loss ofR1.8bn and the possibility of 12 000 jobs be-ing lost.The financial benefit of alcohol advertis-

ing and sponsorship is minuscule comparedto the cost of the damage being done by alco-hol abuse in the country.The cost of road accidents in SouthAfrica,

according Minister of Transport Ben Mar-tin, is about R306bn annually, twice theamount for a new power station.The high road accident rate has increased

the fuel levy for the Road Accident Fundfrom 33 cents to 85 cents/litre.Despite this increase, the RAF is in finan-

cial trouble.If 70% of these accidents are due to drunk-

endriving thenalcohol is costing the taxpay-er far more than (Sars) receives in revenuefrom the sale of alcohol.There are many costs incurred as a result

of alcohol abuse that the taxpayer has tofund.A huge percentage of violent trauma is

due to alcohol abuse, which poses a hugeburden on the health budget and resources.And 40% of pedestrians who are killed onour roads are under the influence of alcohol.The other incalculable costs are loss of in-

comes to families,whenbreadwinners die orare boardeddue to alcohol-related accidents,trauma to the family when the breadwinnerabuses alcohol and neglects the family andthe huge loss to the country’s economic pro-ductivity when workers stay absent from

work due to alcoholism.South Africans consume annually about

5bn litres of alcohol, the highest per capitain the world.The marketing manager (of a national

brewery) would like to see the consumptionof alcohol rise from eight litres a person to20 litres a person.The only way he can achieve his goal is

marketing alcohol through very aggressiveadvertising.I do not for one moment believe the (prod-

uct) is the biggest seller because of its taste.It is the biggest seller because of its aggres-sive marketing, which makes young peoplethink that the people doing the ad on TV arehaving a good time.Our big concern should be that the adver-

tising of alcohol is targeted at our youth,who are at high risk of becoming addictedto the substance.Banning advertising will not stop people

from drinking, but it will certainly go a longway to preventing our youth frombeingmis-led into believing that drinking is a greatway to have fun.Yes, it is sad about the 12 000 jobs in adver-

tising; it is equally sad that 80 000 poor cloth-ing workers lost their jobs due to cheap Chi-nese imports in the past six years, but theyseem to manage.We cannot save a few jobs at the risk of

destroying our country.So every effort aimed at reducing the con-

sumption of alcohol must be welcomed. Oneof them is to ban alcohol advertising.People will still buy it like they do with

cigarettes, so the breweries need not worrytoo much about their profits.Ellapen Rapiti

every year, at least twice a year. There areendless phone-in commercials and “youcould win”. Even commercials are lackingquality and respect to gender, in referenceto the latest “Pin Pop – cool things happen”advertisement in which a woman’s chest

Zooming inon inmates?PHILDA ESSOP

When someone is sentenced toprison, the judge does not add thatthe accused be sentenced to beraped.

This is according to Judith Co-hen, legal expert and specialist ofinternational matters at the Hu-man Rights Commission (HRC).

Last week she was part of anHRC delegation who delivered apresentation on the treatment ofprisoners to the ParliamentaryPortfolio Committee for Correc-tional Services.

The committee is wrestling withthe installation of technology inprison cells versus the right of pris-oners to privacy.

The concern stems from themany rapes which occur in prisonafter lock-up at night. The commit-tee believes CCTV cameras in cellswill help control the problem.

But there is uncertaintywhetherprisoners’ right to privacy is moreimportant than the possibility of arape.

Cohen said from the 4 241 com-plaints received by the HRC in the2012/2013 financial year, 518 werecomplaints from people who wereimprisoned, detained or who hadbeen charged.

Most of these complaints are,however, directed to the inspectingjudge of prisons.

DA MP James Selfe said a lackof communication between offi-cials in the criminal justice sys-tem, who must protect the rights ofthose in custody, can prevent abreach of rights.

ANC MP Winnie Mgwenya sin-gled out rapes in jails as the “big-gest issue”. “The problem is whenthe doors are locked at night, noone knows what happens. Some-times people are killed. We wantyour opinion on CCTV cameras.”

Fellow-ANC MP Meriam Phalisoreferred to a young relative whowas raped while in police custody.“We buried him, but the personwho raped him is protected,”Phaliso said.

Cohen said there is no “yes orno” response to technology.

“This issue will remain contro-versial – not only legally, but alsopractically,” Cohen said. “Thetime has come to investigate thematter. However, it is a matterwhichwill be contestable. It canbe-come a matter of litigation.”

HRC chairperson advocate Law-renceMushwana said although theorganisation did not take a standon technology in prisons, it is amatter of importance and will bediscussed internally.People’s Post took to the streets

to poll readers on the matter.Share your views. SMS your

PATRICK SEPTEMBER says cameras areneeded because too many unpleasantexperiences happen behind bars.“Cameras can protect prisoners, but itwill also be easy for them to hide fromthe lens. Prisoners should not have aright to privacy, because they’re in pris-on to be rehabilitated.” PHOTOS: NADINEMOODIE AND TARREN-LEE HABELGAARN

NICHOLAS HINDLEY says cameraswon’t make a difference in prisons, asthose in prison have committed crimesare of a violent nature. He says crimi-nals will continue to commit crimes re-gardless. “It won’t stop the violenceand is not an effective deterrent. Thesurveillance costs money which comesfrom taxpayers money.”

ENJE SCHERMAN says having a camerain the prison cells will be a good ideaand might help the authorities gainvaluable insight. “I think if they wereto use the camera footage to show thepublic what really happens in our pris-ons it would scare people. It could evenstop them from committing crimes andwould make a good reality show.”

NAOMI SHELDON feels cameras willnot only protect those inside the pris-ons, but also those outside. “Withmany crimes taking place in prisons, itis often where sexual diseases aretransmitted. When that person comesout, it might be given to someone else.Cameras are not needed in single cells,but in communal cells.”

DERRICK STEYN says installing camer-as in prison cells won’t make a differ-ence. “People will continue doing whatthey do without the cameras there; theonly difference is they will be caughtif there are cameras. It won’t make adifference because by the time some-one sees the incident taking place itwould already have happened.”

JUNE DAVIDS says prisoners lose theirright to privacy when they invade theprivacy of someone else. “Camerasshould be installed. When you get upyou make the choice whether you aregoing to be good or bad. People say itis because of their circumstances thatthey commit crimes. I also have circum-stances, but it’s a decision you make.”

Prepare for an electric experience ascabaret comes to the people.Divaswill light up the JosephStone

Auditorium stage and enchant CapeTown for one night only on Saturday6 July.When organiser Kat Gilardi was

crowned Miss Gay Western Cape in2010, she was tasked with organisingan event to raise funds for charity aspart of her duties.She decided to put together a show

witha line-upof someof thebest caba-ret performers in the Mother City.“I wanted to create awareness that

there is more to drag queens andwomen impersonators than just aman in a dress,” Gilardi explains.She decided to name the show Di-

vas because that is what the perform-ers were known as in the communityat that time.“It was about showing that these

performerswere all just people.Whatwe do does not define us – it is some-thing we like to do,” Gilardi insists.“Someof these performerswho like

to dress up in sequins and sing areprofessors and business owners.”Thiswill be the third year the show

will run and Gilardi feels things canonly get better.“After my reign as Miss Gay West-

ernCape I decided tomake this an an-nual event and every year we’ve hada great turn out. The first yearwehadit at Valerie’s Jazz Cafe, but we havesince had to change the venue to ac-commodate the large crowd.”The show boasts a line-up of 13 artists.Gilardi and other performers, including

Manila von Teez, Angel Lalamore, LoganMcGregor and ZilinAyoki Zhang, have beenin rehearsals for more than two months.“I have an amazing team helping me and

they have been working hard putting thisproduction together. This performancegives people the opportunity to see all thesegreat cabaret artists on one stage,” she says.The funds will go to Miss Gay Western

Cape and will be used for educational pur-poses and to help various disadvantagedcommunities.There will also be a Winter Box at the

event andpatrons are invited to donate blan-kets and non-perishable goods.“Themessage Iwant to bring across is that

divas arepillars in their communities.Aboy

in a dress is all people saw and I wanted tochange that.”Gilardi, who also performs with a group

called Three D, says she can feel people havebecomemore accepting of the gay communi-ty over the years.“Every year we get people bringing their

aunties and uncles to see Divas and that’sgreat. We have been receiving a great re-sponse from the straight community and Ithink it is because people just want to be en-tertained. The show educates and makesthem appreciate the talent. When there issomething people don’t understand it ishard to accept, but we need to realise every-one has something that makes them spe-cial,” the enigmatic beauty says.Tickets, at R50, are available at Com-

puticket.

Brio does it with a twistVANN VAN STADEN

With today’s petrol prices nothing sounds more appealing thanan entry level car.It means lower monthly instalments and normally comes

with a smaller engine using less fuel per kilometre.However all the great sounding perks walk hand-in-handwithman-

ual roll downwindows and an aircon consisting of rolling down thosemanual roll downwindows. YourCDplayer,which is a battery operat-ed beauty, is dragged along to family picnics that you place on thepassenger seat to pump the tunes while you cruise downtown.At least this used to be the case before Honda rescued us with the

all-new Honda Brio, entry level with a twist.The twist is that it offers you everything you would expect to see

in an upper class – for lack of a better word – car, without hurtingthe bank balance.TheBrio’s namewasderived from the Italianword for “verve”, “vig-

our”, “cheerfulness” and “energy”. They couldn’t have named it bet-ter!Its sleek look and width gets emphasised by its double triangle de-

sign. Choosing between the 1.2 i-VTEC Comfort Manual or the 1.2 i-VTEC Comfort Automatic all comes down to preference, seeing thatthe price difference between the manual and the automatic is a mereR10 000.A safe reliable ride is what we all wish for day-to-day and the Honda

guys know this. Even though the Brio is their entry level baby, theydidn’t cut back on safety or reliability.With the Brio sporting Honda’s G-CON (G-Force control technolo-

gy), it has high tensile steel in the key places of the frame while thefront body of the Brio is structured in a way to absorb any impact.I’m always ready to hand out a pat on the back to the Honda design-

ers. They never seem to let me down.The execution of the Brio has been flawless, from the exterior to

the interior – everything comes together in one fun and exciting pack-age.I get so excited when performance is not compromised due to cost.

The four cylinder unit kicks out a feisty 65kW of power at 6 000 r/min,and 109Nmof torque at 4500 r/min. It packs enough of a punch to reachthe 100km/h mark in a little bit more than 12 seconds.The fuel economy in the Brio is what gets me going. When you opt

for the manual you could get that down all the way to 5,6F/100km,whereas the automatic you will do a 100km with 6,3F of fuel. That’swell under 80 bucks per 100km.The Brio has set the bar high, delivering overall performance in

all aspects, as well as keeping your monthly car instalment low.The Brio is a force to be reckoned with. The other hatchbacks will

have to watch their backs – the Brio is here to stay.V Model range and pricing: 1.2 i-VTEC Comfort Manual R119 800; 1.2 i-VTEC ComfortAutomatic R129 800. Prices include a two-year 30 000km service plan, and three-year100 000km warranty. Service intervals are every 15 000km.

Get a grip this winterVANN VAN STADEN

Here are some handy tips to keep Capeto-nians safe on the roads this winter.When we think of road safety during

the cold rainy winter months we all instinc-tively think of our tyres. Are your tyres thecorrect tyre pressure for icy and wet weath-er? The tread on your tyres? The conditionof your tyres? But what then? After takinga look at our tyres, what else can we look atto make sure we’re ready for winter?

Mother Nature has already shown us thatwe’re in for a few surprises this winter. Justthe other day parts of the Mother City resem-

bled a ski resort.Here are a few safety tips, from tyres to

windscreen wipers, breaks, to safe followingdistances. Let’s keep our roads accident-freethis winter.

; Start with the basics. Go to a fitmentcentre to make sure your tyres are the cor-rect tyre pressure for icy roads. They will al-so check the tread on your tyres to makesure your tyres are road worthy.

; We don’t use our windscreen wipers formore than 70% of the year. That’s excludingthe moment when a bird leaves a steamypresent on your windscreen. Make sureyour wipers are in perfect condition. No

cracks or tears must be visible on theblades. A good set of wipers won’t setyou back more than R200 and it’sworth the investment.

; Being visible during the cold darkwinter months is vital. Make sure allyour bulbs are in working conditionand the lenses are clean.

; One of the best tips this winterwon’t cost you a cent. It’s vitally impor-tant to leave a safe following distanceat all times. Instead of the normal one-car length following distance, it’s nota bad idea to add another car’s lengthto the distance. This will allow for suf-ficient break time space.

; Speed? Forget it. Snail’s pace isthe safest way forward. Luckily we livein Cape Town, so we already travel alot slower than the rest of South Africa,but it won’t do any harm if we slowdown even more.

This does not mean you must cometo a complete standstill. Once you losemomentum, it is going to take a lotmore effort to regain movement withoutslipping and sliding all over the show.

Now looking at more technical tips to takeon icy roads:

; Keep your car in a low gear. This willgive you more traction. It will prevent theneed to accelerate when approaching a hill.

; In the off chance of your car sliding ona slippery road, do not over-correct by steer-ing in the opposite direction. This will makeyour car spin more.

Should your rear wheels slide to the right,steer to right until you regain traction. Assoon as it feels like you got some traction,slowly start steering in the direction youwant to go. It’s vital to keep calm and notoverreact.

; Whenyoubreak, remember to breakgen-tly. If by chance your wheels start spinning,

release the break. Should your car not haveABS (Anti-lock braking system), just gentlypump/tap the break. That will automatical-ly slow the car down. If you are fortunateenough to have ABS, which most new carshave, you should be a little bit more asser-tive when applying pressure on the breaks.

The worst that would happen is that youwill experience some shuddering, but don’tstress, that’s 100% normal.

These are just the basics. There is a lotmore to consider. The best advice is just totake it easy. Don’t rush.

Make peace with the fact you might get toyour destination a little later than usual, butrather late than never. In this weather speedis never a good idea. Let’s work together thiswinter to make our roads as safe as possible.

Safe driving!

Is anti-freeze the best care ?Is anti-freeze the best care ?With the days and nights getting

cooler, car engines take longer towarm up and can be damaged if

parts become frozen overnight.Whileusinganti-freezeproductsmaybe

the solution to engine freeze, Les McMas-ter, from the Motor Industry WorkshopAssociation (Miwa), warns motorists notto be fooled by just any anti-freeze prod-ucts on the market.“There is quite a lot of confusion sur-

rounding the use of anti-freeze in the cool-ing systems of vehicles. The incorrect ap-plication of anti-freeze, or the dilutionthereof, can result in serious corrosivedamage to various parts of the engine in-cluding water pump, radiator and eventhe engine-cylinder head,” he warns.The South African Bureau of Standards

(SABS) has two standards for anti-freeze.The first standard is SANS/SABS 1251,where a product must be diluted withclean water in one of two different ratios– 50/50 (1:1) or 33.3/67.7 (1:2) according toinstructions, but preferably 1:1.The second, SANS/SABS 1839, is where

a coolant is already diluted with water ina 40/60 ratio and is ready to use. It shouldnot be diluted any further.“If, for example, a coolant product car-

rying the SABS 1839 mark is diluted it be-comes inefficient and corrosion will re-sult causing damage to engine compo-nents. It is, therefore, important tounderstand what you are putting intoyour engine before doing so,” says Mc-Master.So what should you be using? “Unfortu-

nately looking for the SABS/SANS com-pliance mark is no guarantee of the quali-ty of the product,” says McMaster.He offers these tips when looking for

and using an effective anti-freeze product:. Buy branded coolant products from

reliable and reputable outlets.. Theprice of the product is a good indi-

cation of quality. Cheaper varieties arelikely to have already been diluted.

. Ask that your mechanic uses a hy-drometer to check the coolant in your ve-hicle’s cooling system.Themechanic should also check for sol-

ids (rust particles) floating in the coolantand look out for indications of electrolysis(white surface spots) especially in alu-minium radiators.

. In a good coolant, the content of thevital chemicalmono-ethylene glycolmustnot be lower than 30%orhigher than 50%.The glycol content can also be measuredusing a hydrometer.

. It is a best to drain the cooling systemof a vehicle once a year, pour in the cor-rect quantity of undiluted cooling protec-tor and only then fill the system withclean water.

. Coolants of various colours are avail-able on themarket, somewith florescenceadded to make leak detection easier.Colours are no indication of the type of

chemicals used in the mixture.“Most anti-freeze products are really

cooling system protectors,” advises Mc-Master.“They do not necessarily protect only

against freezing. A characteristic of agood quality coolant is that it will preventboiling – and these anti-boil characteris-tics are more important in most parts ofSouth Africa than the anti-freeze charac-teristics.”He adds that it is also worthwhile turn-

ing on your car and letting it run for a fewminutes beforedrivingoff in themorning.

Running to raise the randsLIAM MOSES

A Mitchell’s Plain teacher aims to com-plete a hat-trick of international mara-thons this year and raise almost

R400 000 in the process.IrafaanAbrahams, a teacher at Rocklands

High School and a well-known communityworker, completed the New York and Chica-go marathons in 2011 and 2012, respectively,as part of his One Million Rand Challenge.Thus far he has raised over R610 000 and

now aims to reach his R1-million target byrunning the Amsterdam Marathon in Octo-ber.Abrahams achieved his incredible feat by

enlisting the help of schools, running clubsand other organisations, who used donationcards to collect R5 for every kilometre of theraces he ran.While the schools kept most of the money

raised, the other organisations donated thefunds to a charity Abrahams selected as thebeneficiary.In 2011 the selectedbeneficiarywas theBe-

it-tul-aman Old Age Home, in 2012 cancercharities Ama Bele Belles and Cancervivewere the beneficiaries and this year Abra-hams has selected Glendale High School asthe main beneficiary.Abrahams says Glendale’s aim to build

the first international standard athleticstrack in Mitchell’s Plain at the school’sgrounds is “extremely important”.“We produce so many top school athletes;

they must get used to running on a propertartan track,” he says.“The school could be a hub of all athletic

activity (in the area).Wecould start cultivat-ing young athletes from primary school lev-el. The local athletics clubs could also use

the track as a base to enhance the longer dis-tances of running. Clubs who don’t have abase could find a home here at GlendaleHigh. At Vygieskraal you have clubs likeItheko and Top Form speed training. Thesame thing could happen in Mitchell’sPlain.”The trackwill cost betweenR7-millionand

R12-million to build. So far Glendale hasraised around R300 000 over five years.Principal Achmat Chotia says the pro-

gramme forms part of the Mitchell’s PlainEducation Forum’s vision to create schoolswhich make pupils “feel good about wherethey come from” and says the track couldhelp to “save a lot of our children from gang-sterism, crime and drugs”.“We want government to buy into it and

join us. Our aim is to have at least five orsixMitchell’s Plain athletes represent SouthAfrica at the Olympics soon,” says Chotia.“If we are given the necessary infrastruc-

ture and develop Mitchell’s Plain, which isthe size of the City of Bloemfontein, we willachieve so much more.”Traditionally athletics has been one of the

most popular sports in Mitchell’s Plain, butthe area’s athletes are forced to travel to Bel-lville or Athlone to train on a tartan track.Chotia envisions that the track will be

managed byGlendale and the some of the ar-ea’s athletics clubs. It will be used by all theschools in Mitchell’s Plain.Abrahams usually hand-picks just 10

schools to participate in the programme, butthis year he has opened the project to anyschool or organisation which wants to raisemoney for itself or the Glendale project.V Anyone interested in participating in the One MillionRand Challenge can phone Abrahams on084 283 9977.

FUND RUN: Teacher and community worker Irafaan Abrahams and Glendale High Schoolprincipal Achmat Chotia stand on the site where they hope an athletics tracks will be built.Abrahams will run the Amsterdam Marathon in October to raise funds for the project.. PHOTO: LIAM MOSES

Yusrah has a passion for ruggaLIAM MOSES

She refused to let abroken nose get in theway of her goal of rep-resenting theWesternProvince in rugby.Yusrah Francis has

been playing rugbysince the age of 10 andwas recently selectedto represent the WPunder-18 women’ssevens team.The Pinelands High

School pupil is “ec-static” at her inclu-sion and has now sether sights on aSpringbok call-up anda spot at the Olym-pics.“There were about

200 girls at the trialsand most of themwere good; I thought Iwasn’t going to makeit,” says Francis.“Hopefully I will be

able to make the na-tional side. In the nextOlympic year, I willbeunder-21 Ihopewillbe playing at the Ol-ympics.”Francis started playing the gamewhen

she was invited to participate in a JagFoundation training session for boys ata school close to her home in Bonteheuw-el. She describes her first match as “aninsane rush” andhas loved the game eversince.The scrum-half hasn’t looked back

since and her hard work paid off lastyear, when she was called up to the WPunder-16 girls side.Francis says that breaking her ankle

last year and her nose just two weeks agohas not killed her passion and desire tosucceed. “It just happened in a tackle. Itwas very quick and I didn’t want to besubstituted, but my nose was bleedingand I was forced to go off the field,” shesays.

“Last week the fractured nose bonepopped out again. My mother said that Ishouldn’t go back, but I stillwent to train-ing. It mademe evenmore amped to play,because the competition is getting tough-er.”Francis is also working as a brand am-

bassador for the Jag Foundation, coach-ing younger players.The sevens tournament will take place

in Wellington from Thursday 4 to Satur-day 6Julyandwill feature regional teamsfrom each province.The WP team are Buyiselwa Raraza,

Azipheli Manitsane, Nolutho Gijana,Shawna Julies, Tatum Daniels, KimicoManuel, Camron Litago, Thandiswa Ng-wenze, Carol Vaaltyn,MeganKannemey-er, Shaylin Simons and Francis.

SPORTClub rugby set for overhaulLIAM MOSES

Cape Town’s club rugby leagues are setfor an overhaul next season when thecurrent format of the competition will

be scrapped.The Western Province Rugby Football Un-

ion (WPRFU) currently runs eight differentleagues of ten teams each, with the top twogaining promotion to a higher league eachyear. The bottom two teams are relegated.

However, as of next year the top 45 clubsin the region will be split into three different15-team groups – A, B and C – as part of thesame “Premier Competition”.

The clubs seeded from 46-78 on the rank-ings will be divided into three different re-gional competitions, in the “Northern”,“Southern” and “City” Leagues.

The change in format has received con-trasting reactions from some of the city’sbiggest clubs. Michael Reynolds, chairper-son of South Africa’s oldest club Hamilton’s,says he is against the change.

“It takes us away from the strength versusstrength (competition). Maties already beatthe lower sides in the Super League A by 80

points and now there are five sides that areweaker than the bottom sides in the league,”he says.

Reynolds adds that the new competition’sother weakness is that teams will only playeach other once in the league stage, beforethe top six sides advance to knockoutrounds.

“The structure now – strength versusstrength, home and away – is the only wayit can work. That’s a true reflection. Youplay home and away, and there are no excus-es.”

The knockout phase of the competitionwill be similar to Super Rugby, with the toptwo in each group advancing to semi-finals,while teams placed three to six will face offin quarter-finals to determine the other twosemi-finalists.

Teams placed from seventh to 14 in thegroups will advance to a “Top Eight” knock-out competition, with quarter-finals, semisand a final.

Although the top two and bottom twoteams in each group will still be promotedand relegated, the promotion/relegation for-mat has also changed. The third-placed team

in each league, expect Group A of the “Pre-mier Competition”, will face off against the13th-placed team in the lower league, withthe winner gaining promotion.

Chairperson of Primrose RFC, FaghierGamieldien, says the inclusion of a knock-out element is one of the primary reasons hevoted for the tournament.

“If you are in fourth place in Super LeagueB and you know you cannot be promoted ordemoted then what are you playing for?” hesays.

“Every year you find Maties or the otherbig clubs winning the Super League A. Thenew structure gives the other clubs a chanceto win the league. It gives everyone an oppor-tunity to win.”

The regional leagues will take a similarformat, with the 11 teams in each leagueplaying the other sides in their league onlyonce.

The top three from each league will thenadvance to a combined league competition,to play a single round of matches to find anultimate winner. Teams placed from four to11 will play another round of games in theirrespective leagues.

Although the competition as a whole drewcontrasting responses from the variousclubs, everyone agreed that a major down-side was the fact that the second, third or un-der-20 team competitions will not have aknockout competition.

Dr Nasief van der Schyff, Collegians RFCjunior vice president, says the length of theseason could have socio-economic impactson some clubs.

“In the new format each team is guaran-teed only 14 games, while we are currentlyguaranteed 18 games,” he says.

“For a club like Collegians, which usesrugby as an alternative to gangsterism anddrugs, it may result in us not playing enoughrugby and putting players at risk of some ofthe socio-economic problems.”

Danny Jones, WPRFU general manager ofamateur rugby, decline the opportunity tocomment on the new structures, saying theunion was still finalising on some aspects.
