Your expectations noted?

The Greater Tubatse Municipality this past week concluded its public participation programme / consul-tative meetings with the general public, businesses and industries in the municipality to receive input on matters regarding service delivery and infratructure projects in the area. The presentation by the municipality looked as far ahead as 2021. According to the council’s doc-uments, what is needed until 2021 is immense when compared to the feedback report, which gives encour-aging information about projects completed, especially in terms of electricity infrastructure in villages. Whether the electricity will be available and affordable was not in the scope of the planning ... In the photograph the ‘completed’ foundation of the Burgersfort fl ea market, as mentioned in the council documents can be seen. From the documents it is not clear what the next step or budget for the project is.

DWARSRIVIER MINETaking hands against crime in Thaba Chweu

#drugsmus allTaking on the fi ght against crime and drugs in Mashishing

On Thursday 14 April 2016 Dwarsrivier Mine sponsored a crime aware-ness campaign in Mashishing. Learners from Mashishing High School and Skhila Secondary School a ended the event and the focus fell heavily on preven on of drug use, abuse and criminal ac vi es surrounding this. The SAPS appealed to everyone to assist them by repor ng suspicious or known criminal ac vi es. Various stakeholders also encouraged them to turn down crime and focus on educa on. The learners were warned about the dangers of drugs and becoming involved with crime. Dwarsrivier Mine cares about communi es and the future of residents in the area surrounding the mine. That is why they get involved with these crime awareness campaigns. Recently they also sponsored a campaign in the Ngwaabe area in Sekhukhune. Mr Remember Mmbengwa from

Dwarsrivier Mine warned learners that their chances of one day securing jobs at ins tu ons such as Dwarsrivier will be wiped out by crime. “If you have a criminal record, employers will not trust you. It is not worth it to risk your future now with crime. Rather focus on your studies as this is the way to a be er future. In the past many people were not worried about obtaining qualifi ca ons, but these days it is necessary to show that you are not only willing to do the job, but also the best qualifi ed candidate for it”. Col. Pu er, the Lydenburg SAPS Sta on Commander told the learners that they need their help in erradica ng crime from the area. He also provided them with a special number where they can leave p-off s about any criminal ac vi es. The number is 071 623 6840. He referred to drugs in the communi-ty as monsters they need to fi ght. A er the formal programme the learners each received a delicious lunch.

Man killed by angry mob

Crime snippets

Beware of cheque fraudstersLater the suspect called and said that he deposited ex-tra money into the account by mistake and requested that they refund this via money market to him.

Unsuspectingly the victim went to Burgersfort and deposited the amount of R2000 promising to give the rest when the cheque cleared. The man never arrived for the meeting and did not answer any further calls. The bank also contacted her with the news that it was a stolen cheque and thus not valid. They lost the mon-ey and the cost for the catering. A case was opened at Ohrigstad and will be forwarded to the Commercial crimes Unit for further handling and investigation.

4 NEWS 22 APRIL 2016

Jubilee Platinum has announced that all matters relating to its chrome processing development and operations are progressing satisfactory and report increased throughput capacity together with operational control of the ASA project at Dilokong, about 30 km from Burgersfort.

Jubilee says since the company assumed operational control of all chrome processing capability at ASA, overall processing capability at ASA increased from 25,000 tpm to 75,000 tpm;

This paves the way for increased third party material importation.Currently the company is processing 55 tonnes feed per hour,

which will increase over the coming weeks.Operating margins per tonne will not be compromised and could

potentially improve, based on only modest change, to the fi xed cost component of the overall cost structure.

Leon Coetzer, CEO said: “We are very pleased with progress on our tailings projects, particularly the increased chrome processing capability together with full operational control. This scenario will undoubtedly positively impact on all aspects of our chrome treatment business.”

Full steam ahead for Jubilee tailings

Update: Ohrigstad sport complexAlthough not mentioned at all in the Greater Tubatse Local Municipality’s IDP presentation prepared for the recent consultative meetings, it seems that after two years the project is about roof level. On grassroots level there is no grass yet, although the wild grasses is threat-ening the newly constructed netball an tennis court. Estimated time of completion: unknown. (Platinum Gazette previously tried to engage with the contractor, but to no avail).

The missing stop signs in Burgersfort seems to have been replaced and cemented into the ground. How long they will stay put is anybody’s guess. Damaging it, putting advertising signs on it, driving over it, using it in constructing your house and shooting at it, is illegal and the law will deal with you. All you may do, is obey the signs.

What to do?

What do you do when a concrete mixer truck is spilling it’s contents on the road like this one between Ohrigstad and Burgerfort recently?

You try and fl ag the driver, who in ignorance just kept on driving.

According to a spokesperson for the company who were contacted by e-mail, the company must clean the surface after the spillage (which it did not do). You can can also claim from the company if your vehicle was damaged because of the spillage if you can prove it.

Meanwhile it seems that the adminsitrastion of justice around the transporting of anything in the area is almost non-existing. As long as you have your license (legal or bought) with you and your vehicle is roadworthy and you keep to the speed limit where they can see you, everything is fi ne.

6 NEWS

The South African Police Service has an-nounced that the training for new recruits will be shortened to 8 months. This means the time these recruits will be spending in training will shorten by more than half than previous-ly done. Previously they spend 24 months being trained. According to Brig. Hangwani Mulaudzi, the shortened course will be much more intense and aimed at providing a more “pro-active” policing qualifi cation. The new system kicked in on 11 April and these recruits will be ready for deployment by December 2016 – the same time as when the last of those completing the old training will be ready. It is expected that 8000 new young police offi cers will be ready for deployment by December this year. The new programme is said to place empha-sis on a dedicated, disciplined and profes-sional police service working together with the public. They will receive both practical and theoretical training and will do service at community service centers close to training centers across the country. The announcement of the changed training was met with mixed responses from the pub-lic. Some criticized it for not giving enough time for proper training while others focus more on the quality of the training. 1992 police offi cers received only six months of training at a college before being placed at a station. There they received further training while working with a fi eld training offi cer. Platinum Gazette asked readers what they think about the new training time for police recruits.

Ms Portia Mokgotho said: “Eight months of training is ok, but it must be quality train-ing and they must really want to be police offi cers”.

Ms Kholofelo Magabane said: “It is not long enough to train them in eight months, but we also need more police offi cers urgently. The quality of the training is important”. With her is Ntimba.

Mr Sipho Mahlakwana said: “It is important for South Africa to look at other countries with a low crime rate. We should see how they train and for how long they train their police offi cers. We should check their systems and strategies and copy it. I don’t think reducing the training time will be a solution for crime”.

Mr Elliot Makofane said: “This is not long enough. They must get physical and ac-ademic training. Eight months is not long enough for all of that”.

Me Carla van der Walt sê: “Hulle behoort langer opleiding te ontvang want vandag is hulle so roekeloos – veral met hulle vuur-wapens. Hulle sit sommer op hulle wapens. Reëls behoort te verander en dissipline te verbeter. Hoe moet hulle leer om verant-woordelik te wees as hulle net agt maande opleiding kry?”

Right: Mr Tomile Headman said: “It is ok to train them only 8 months, as long as the training is good”.

Mr Bush Shai said: “Eight months is not enough. At least 24 months is needed. They also have to do physical training because some police offi cers are too fat”. With him is Ms Lebo Shai.

Mr Peter Twala said: “Twenty-four months is what their training should be. They need thorough training for their job. Eight months is too short for them”.

Mr Lenox Mmadi said: “Eight months is too short. It should be at least two years. They should have kept it like it was. If they don’t get proper training how can they deliver? If they get enough time to train, they can deliver”.

What do you think about the22 APRIL 2016

7NUUS22 APRIL 2016

Mr Daniël Malepe said: “It depends on the quality of the training. The values they imple-ment is a problem. The problem in the SAPS is the values and not the training. Training does not matter. If they have values and don’t do bribery it will be good, but now they only look after their stomachs”.

Mnr. Vantie Eloff en Mnr. Jean O’Neill sê: “Opleiding help hulle in elk geval nie, dit maak nie saak hoe lank nie. Hulle moet mense wat weet hoe, kry om die opleiding te kom doen. Ons mense weet duidelik nie. Die ander kant is ook – wat kan jy hulle leer as die krimineel meer regte as die polisieman het?” Mr Thumelo Mashile said: “Eight months is

not enough. Before they trained 24 months. Now they will know nothing. They should be able to know the difference between the dif-ferent types of cases. They need time to train and learn. Sometimes they also need to go to court as part of their training. They should experience different things like conducting a road block”.

Ms Velry Ngobeni and Mr David Mashabela said: “Eight months is ok. Even the biggest companies gives you the opportunity to prove yourself and this they should do when given the opportunity. Eight months is fi ne as long as it is quality training”.

Mr Gert Rantho said: “One and a half years is what their training should be. They need more time to learn how to work as a police offi cer. Now they just go to work to go and sleep”.

Ms Sabina Mpinga said: “They should be trained longer. Eight months is too short. They will not have all the knowledge in eight months. Longer training will result in them knowing better how to combat crime”.

Mr Patrick Malepe and Mr Collen Malepe said: “They will not be able to do the job. It is too short. Some of them will take bribes. They must be competent. The new recruits must have a passion to fi ght crime and not just want a job. Then they won’t take bribes and will work well, no matter the training. They must understand their jobs”.

Mr Christopher Mokoena and Mr Frederick Lesenya said: “It depends. They must train 24 months because when you look at how things are now, the system of training is poor. They must also be competent in handling fi rearms and must know the laws. When selecting re-cruits they should also give preference to reservists. Eight months is too short. They must be trained in different environments. It is also important that the selection must not be done on a political base”.

Mnr Daniël Kgotle sê: “Agt maande is lank genoeg as dit goeie opleiding is, maar onge-lukkig is die meeste mense te sleg om regtig te leer en te werk. Die mense dink hulle kan net kry, maar hulle wil nie leer en gee nie”.

Mr Colman Magoma said: “It is too short. Even after 24 months the SAPS is not prop-erly trained. Eight months won’t work”.

Right: Mr Sello Skosana said: “We need proper training for our SAPS. Eight months is not enough. At least two years is necessary. They should also improve the quality of training given because our communi-ties have a lot of challenges”.

Left: Mr Dennis Malepe said: “In our com-munity we need quality training for the police offi cers. Government is now looking at cutting expenses in training police offi cers and not at the quality of the offi cers they’ll be producing. They need at least 18 months of training so they can give proper service. What will now happen is that people will say they don’t want to give a proper service while the reality is that they received poor training on how to give a proper service”.

The Casual Day theme for 2016 is Up Your Game and will be celebrated on Friday 2 September 2016. Casual Day benefi ciaries would like to thank public donors and fundraisers for their massive support for the project in 2015.

Says Vanessa du Plessis, Casual Day project leader: “The public have been incredibly generous and we thank them. However, we must not be complacent in our understanding of the great need for funding in this area. Organisations in the disability sector are invited to register with us and raise funds for themselves via our infrastructure. We are embarking on a countrywide roadshow, so look out for one near you.

“This funding will benefi t thousands of persons with disabilities through the branches of its 12 benefi ciary organisations in every region. The public donated an overall amount of R27 million – R18 million was raised

“The benefi ciaries of the funds, collected via a do-nation for a R10 sticker, on the fi rst Friday in September each year, include 500 schools and organisations that render services to persons with disabilities. In a spirit of transparency, the public must also know that a portion of the funds go to running costs, but we keep them as low as possible,” she concludes.

Casual Day is the fl agship project of the National Council for Persons with Physical Disabilities in SA (NCP-PDSA).

Veldskiet is groot pret

Die Bosbok Tak van die Jagters Vereeniging van Suid-Afrika en die Waterval CVO skool het verlede naweek saamgespan om ‘n Veldskietdag aan te bied.

Die dag is by PLM Boerdery gehou en verskillende bane is uitgelê. Daar is op verskillende afstande na verskillende teikens asook boog en gongskiet gedoen.

Die idee van die dag is om pret te hê, die publiek ‘n kans te gee om betrokke te raak en meer te leer terwyl lede wat regmaak vir die jagseisoen solank ‘n bietjie kon oefen.

Tussen die dag se aktiwiteite deur het die CVO skool gesorg vir heerlike kos en ‘n paar uitstallers het alles en nog wat gehad vir jagters en skuts.

Girls With Guns was een van die vrouespanne wat deelgeneem het.

Pannekoek, boereworsrolle asook pap en kaiings was op die spyskaart.
