    Tuesday this week saw the most recent of

    large gatherings of community members at

    the R555 Road t-junction adjacent to Xstrata

    Alloyss Lion smelter near Steelpoort.

    In particular five communities are at

    loggerheads with Xstrata Alloys. In the first

    place they do not want 18 communities in the

    municipality to benefit from employment at

    the company. They want only five

    communities to benefit. Xstrata alloys

    through spokesperson Songezo Zibi in

    Johannesburg says no, the company wants

    to keep its commitment spelled out in the

    original Environmental Impact Assessment to

    the 18 communities identified who must

    benefit from 75 percent of jobs. 13communities cannot simply be discarded

    now he said.

    In the second place the protesters want

    Xstrata to use a local recruitment company

    from the five communities, who should also

    handle tenders for the company. Xstrata

    says it does not want to be forced to use a

    specific company, but will negotiate if all 18

    communities agree on one specific company

    that wil make sure that the proceeds of such

    a company will benefit the 18 communities in

    the EIA. In the meantime the company will

    do its own recruitment through advertising in

    the local newspapers and through local

    communitiy liaison officers.

    The protesters also want 40 percent of

    procurement by the company to go to the five

    communities only. The company says some

    of the procurement is so specialized andtechnical that local tenderers will qualify with

    difficulty. The company will in such cases be

    willing to agree that such a contractor be

    required to take in a 10 percent local partner

    from the 18 communities. Mr Zibi also

    stressed that giving specialized contract to

    local companies who subcontract dubious

    partners, may jeopardize industrial safety

    severely.

    Currently Xstrata is not communicating

    directly with the protesters from the five

    villages as serious threats were made

    against employees and directors of the

    company. Xstrata says as a sign of goodwill

    no charges were pressed against the

    protesters during previous marches and

    damage of property that took place, but atthis stage it deems it hazardous to attend

    meetings with representatives of protesters

    and is communicating with them through the

    Office of the Executive Mayor of the

    Sekhukhune istrict Municipality. It has also

    requested government to request a

    guarantee from safety that company

    employees and representatives will not be

    harmed.

    Meanwhile government has commented

    inter alia on the whole mines vs communities

    as follows:

    The Executive Mayor of Sekhukhune

    District Municipality (SDM) Cllr Mogobo

    David Magabe is continuing in his drive to

    facilitate peace and harmony amongst the

    mines and communities around them.

    Following the 18 May Local Government

    Elections, the Executive Mayor Cllr Mogobo

    David Magabe has prioritized the

    resolution of mining disputes particularly in

    Tubatse area as one of the District

    Municipalitys key priorities. About six

    meetings have been successfully held

    between 2June and the 23 June 2011. In

    all the above-mentioned meetings,

    representatives of communities and the

    mines, together with government as

    facilitator, engaged on issues of disputes

    and in majority of the cases resolutions

    were taken. In his analysis of the situation,

    the Executive Mayor outlined that key

    concerns being raised are employment of

    local people, social labour plans

    (community development projects) andbeneficiation (that is shares, procurement

    and empowerment in general).

    Government wants to state it on record

    that the issue of unemployment is a

    serious challenge that requires

    commitment from both us and the mines.

    Equally so, mines should ensure that they

    implement projects aimed at uplifting the

    standard of living of the people were they

    mine and beyond. On the issue of

    beneficiation, it should be clearly

    understood that local communities should

    be empowered through allocation of shares

    and a procurement system that is baised

    towards them.

    The meetings which were held included

    those with Xstrata Alloys Smelter vs

    communities of Ga-Mampuru and Ga-

    Phasha, Two Rivers Platinum Mine vs

    Mines and communities

    still at loggerheadscommunities of Ga-Maphopha andNgwaabe, Twickenham Platinum MineProject vs communities of Serafa,

    Morapaneng, Ga-Mashabela, etc and Phoka

    Thaba Platinum Mine vs communities of

    Digabane, Sehlaku, Crossong,

    Maandagshoek, etc.

    One of the achievements in this matter

    was a meeting held with the Minister of the

    Department of Mineral Resources Suzan

    Shabangu on Friday 17 June in Pretoria. In

    the meeting, the Minister pledged to visit

    Sekhukhune towards the end of July to meet

    with all mining stake-holders.

    During all the engagements with the

    relevant stake-holders, government isrepresented through a broader forum

    comprised of official from the Premiers

    Office, LEDET, DMR, SDM, SAPS and local

    municipalities. This forum is headed by the

    Executive Mayor of SDM Cllr Mogobo David

    Magabe.

    The Executive Mayor of SDM further

    remarks on the situation that

    Government whilst understanding the

    plight of the unemployed and the poor

    wishes to condemn unruly behavior that

    accompanies peoples genuine

    complains. We have begun a dialogue on

    these issues and as a result there is no

    need for violence. We call upon the

    security agency to deal decisively with all

    criminal elements in our society.

    Not only at the mines...

    The Labour Forum at the De Hoop Dam was reconstituted ata meeting this week Tuesday. This was necessary becauselocal government representation on the forum has changedafter the local government elections in Maythis year. The

    job of the forum is inter alia to ensure that labour issues areaddressed in the right way at the construction site.

    On Wednesday Sekhukhune District Municipality received a fleet of 70

    vehicles from Fleet Africa as part of its ongoing efforts to expedite service

    delivery to communities. The fleet includes a truck-loader and backhoe, five

    water tankers, a sewerge tanker, 30 vans, one 14 ton truck, three crane trucks

    and 33 double cab bakkies will be used by the Municipalitys Infrastructure and

    Water Services Department.

    Speaking at the handover function at the Groblersdal Firestation on

    Wednesday, Executive Mayor of Sekhukhune District Municipality, CllrMogobo David Magabe said the new fleet is a tool that wil enable the

    government to criss-cross the intire district in a quest to deliver basic services

    to our communities. Answering the obvious question, Cllr Magabe told his

    audience that his administration is committed to fight fraud and corruption

    through the neccessary strategies, saying among other things We will not

    tolerate anyone who works for kickbacks rather than to serve our people.

    Gone are the days when it took more than three months to fix boreholes, gone

    are the days when lazy officials sit in nice and airconditioned offeces while our

    people are suffering. The fleet is a tool to improve the quality of services and

    will never be used for any other purpose than to serve our people.

    The mayor also urged the Corporate Services Department to speed up the

    process in setting up a call centre where whistleblowers can report the ubuse

    of state property, such as the new fleet, and also to report service delivery

    problems they might encounter.

    Ready to roll ...

    On Wednesday 29 June 2011 the Station Commander on Tubatse SAPS Colonel Jane Letsoalo
