Drugs: plea for cops to actTARRENLEE HABELGAARN

@LeeLaVidaLoca

Heideveld residents claim daily phonecalls to police and numerous com-plaints to council regarding drug deal-

ings at a council-owned home have fallen ondeaf ears.

An elderly resident says she has observedhow exchanges take place in broad daylightoutside a flat in Dixie Court.

“Tik, unga ... you name it – they sell it. I’mat home all day long; I see what happens andI can hear them talk. Police either don’t re-spond or take hours if they do, so those in-volved with illegal activities don’t ever seemrushed,” she says.

“I call and call but I don’t see any resultsfrom council or the police. [Dealing in] drugsis a major problem in the courts and even[safety and security minister Dan Plato’s]visit didn’t seem to help. I get sworn at allthe time and have been threatened manytimes for reprimanding people when I seewhat I suspect is an exchange happening.”

Many residents agree and say more policevisibility and rules need to be applied in thecourts.

Manenberg police spokesperson Lieuten-ant Ian Bennett insists police have been suc-cessfully clamping down on the drug prob-lem at the flats and within precinct.

“We rely greatly on the tip-offs from thecommunity and have been responding toresidents’ concerns. Since January we haveconfiscated drugs worth thousands of randsin the precinct and regularly conduct raidsas well as stop-and-searches,” he says.

“Drug use and selling is among the priori-ty problems in the precinct and we under-stand the urgency to address it but thingsdon’t just happen overnight. There are cer-tain procedures and protocols to follow butwe are working on the issue daily.”

Bennett says besides acting on tip-offsthere are two police vans on daily patrolls.

He does, however, appeal to residents toensure that fake tip-offs or prank calls arenot made to the station.

“Most of the leads we follow up on are true,but there are many false tip-offs being madeand we are appealing to those individuals tostop. When we receive and act on a false tip-off it wastes time and resources that wecould be using elsewhere.”

A resident, who wants to be identified onlyas Susan, says she is constantly living in fear

for her family’s well-being.“I have two young children and I don’t

want them to end up in gangs or addicted todrugs. I fear that constant exposure to thesethings might influence them. If I could affordto move somewhere else I would do it in aheartbeat because not only are they sellingdrugs outside our flats but they are alwaysshouting or attacking people.”

Ward councillor Anthony Moses assuresresidents there are many evictions pendingaction and getting rid of individuals in-volved with illegal activity in council rentalstock is a priority.

“We are working closely with the policeand other law enforcement agencies to bringto book those individuals who are negativelyimpacting on their communities by being in-

volved in illegal activity,” he warns.“We are still receiving many tip-offs and

there are many individuals and flats beinginvestigated. All those found guilty of illegalactivity will be evicted; there are no twoways about that.”VWhat more could be done to halt drug dealing fromtownships? What are you doing to keep your childrensafe.

FINANCE

You and the BudgetWhat does the Budget 2015 mean to the ordi-

nary South African citizen? Financial journal-

ist Moeshfieka Botha helps readers to under-

stand how they will be affected by the Budget.

There were many people who eagerlyawaited this year’s budget speech. Andthere were also many who simply were

not interested in it because they feel that thedecisions made by politicians rarely havemuch impact on the lives of ordinary citi-zens. They still just do the best they canwithwhat they have available.

Budget 2015, however, is very importantto ordinary South African citizens becauseit does directly affect our lives.

Finance Minister Nhlanhla Nene’s firstfull National Budget was a tough one.

Fuel levyThe biggest shock to consumers was prob-

ably the raising of the fuel prices by 80.5c/F.This ismade up of an increase in the generalfuel levy by 30.5c/F and the Road AccidentFund levy by 50c/F.

While fuel prices are now at their lowestin many months, consumers might be ableto absorb these increased levies, but fuel pri-ces do fluctuate. Consumers will be feelingthe full brunt of this levy hike when the fuelprice rises again. We will not only be feelingit directly when we fill up, but we are sureto the see the price of basic food and necessi-ties rise too.

ElectricityThe other hike whichwill have a direct ef-

fect on consumers is the “temporary” in-crease in the electricity levy form 3.5c/kWhto 5.5c/kWh. According to Nene this was putinto place to assist demand. The additional2c/kWh will be withdrawn when the elec-

tricity shortage is over.

Income taxPeople earning more than R181 900 a year

(R15 158 a month) with have their personalincome tax increased by 1%. This raises taxof the average person in this tax bracket, be-low the age of 65 by about R21 a month.

The rates and brackets for transfer dutieson the sale of properties will be adjusted, sothat it provides relief to middle incomehouseholds. Transfer duty on properties be-low R750 000 will be eliminated.

Sin taxOther increases include:. The tax on a quart of beer goes up by

15.5c;. A bottle of wine will cost 15c more;. A bottle of sparkling wine goes up by 48c

and a bottle of whisky will cost R3.77 more;. A pack of 20 cigarettes will cost 82cmore.Social grants have been increased:

. Oldage,war veterans, disability and caredependencygrantswill increase byR60 fromR1350 to R1410;. Child support grantswill increase byR10

to R330;. And foster care grants will increase by

R30 to R860.The number of beneficiaries of social

grants has doubled from 7.7 million recipi-ents.Nene said they would review the possi-bility of further adjustments to grant valuesin October.

Disposable incomeThe household debt-to-disposable income

ratio currently stands at 78.4%.Consumerswho are already cash strapped

and specifically struggling to pay their debt,are encouraged to tighten their belts and putall their resources into becoming debt-freeas soon as possible.

RogerBrown, chief executive of debt coun-sellors Credit Matters, says: “This is crunchtime for consumers. The only way thosestruggling with debt are going to survive isby decreasing what they pay their creditorsmonthly so that they may have more moneyleft to live on and pay for basic necessities.”V How are you tightening your belt? Share yourthoughts on cash-saving initiatives you have intro-duced or plan to implement in your home. Startingwith the word “Post” SMS to 32516. SMSes cost R1.

Citizens will have to revisit their personal budgets to accommodate for expected increases in fuel and sin tax. This photo is an illustration.PHOTO: MONIQUE DUVAL

EDUCATION

Under investigationROWENA HENDRICKS

@roxyh28

Underage drinking, drunk pupils, dag-ga smoking and a disco for all the pu-pils during school hours are some of

the allegations being investigated at a highschool in Heideveld.

According to a teacher at the HeideveldSecondary School, who requests to remainanonymous for fear of being victimised,says the incident happened on Friday 13February during school hours.

He says one of his fellow teachers and amember of the cleaning staff later had totake a matric pupil (whose name is knownto People’s Post) home after they found herdrunk and passed out on the schoolgrounds.

The teacher says the pupils were allowedto have, among others, food stalls and a dis-co for fundraising in celebration of Valen-tine’s Day the next day.

However, he says, there was no adult su-pervision by any of the teachers at the class-room where the pupils had the disco.

The teacher says the pupils could smug-gle in alcohol and smoke dagga.

He says the principal just “turned a blindeye” and “swept the whole incident underthe rug”.

“This is totallyunacceptable.Only [on themorning of Wednesday 25 February] whenhe received an email from the education de-

partment informing him that the media isenquiring about the incident, did [the prin-cipal] mention it in the staff meeting.”

However, according to Paddy Attwell,whoheads communicationat theprovincialeducation department, the district office isaware of these allegations and “the princi-pal and the school have not turned a blindeye to them”.

He says the school is investigating the in-cident and will arrange disciplinary hear-ings in line with its code of conduct.

Attwell says the correct procedure is forthe school to investigate first and apply itscode of conduct. The department will onlythen respond to any submissions made bythe school, in line with procedure.

“Our district office has also asked theprincipal to convene a meeting with staff todiscuss any concerns they may have.”

Attwell further says the provincial Edu-cationAmendment Act prohibits substanceabuse at schools.

“Schools may apply disciplinary meas-ures against pupils found using alcohol orillegal drugs during school hours or schoolactivities, in terms of the Act,” he says.

Attwell says the education department al-so does not allow discos during schoolhours. He says the department applies astrict time on task policy, to maximiseteaching and learning time. “We are confi-dent the principal and school will deal withthese issues appropriately, to the best oftheir abilities in difficult circumstances”.V Starting with the word “post”, SMS your thoughtsto 32516.

rived home and got out of her vehicle to openthe garage door at her Camberwell Roadhome. She then heard a noise and saw fourmen approaching her. One of them pointed afirearm at the woman and took her vehiclekeys and handbag,” he says.Two of the suspects drove off in the car

while the other two drove off in a blue FordFiesta. They fled in an unknown direction.A few minutes after the incident, the Fiesta

ATHLONE

Vagrants spark concernTARRENLEE HABELGAARN

@LeeLaVidaLoca

Metal thieves and trolley brigades arefrustrating residents and they feel va-grants squatting on an open field are

only adding to the problem.Athlone police station commander Colo-

nel Krisjan Verwant says metal theft andtheft of refuse bins is a concern in the Car-rington Road in the Athlone Central Busi-ness District (CBD).“We receive complaints almost daily re-

garding the squatters in Carrington Road.Wehave issued fines and arrested one or twopeople for possession of drugs and [we] regu-larly patrol to monitor any illegal activity,”he says.“There are a few scrapyards in the area

and therefore trolley brigades are alsomoni-tored closely. It is mostly homeless peoplecarting their possessions around but wehave also found stolen property and metalbefore.”

Ward councillorMagadien Davids says heis aware of squatters living on vacant landnear Carrington Road, which is owned bythe City of Cape Town, but says they haverefused help.“I have conducted site visits therewith the

Displaced People’s Unit and Law Enforce-ment. We can’t just remove people fromopen land without finding them alternativeaccommodation but all of our informal set-tlements are already filled to capacity,” hesays.“Once the re-blocking of Vygieskraal

takes place maybe we will be able to movesome of these people there but we have of-fered to move them to a shelter or find helpand they refused. Many of them don’t wanthelp and prefer living on the street becausethere areno rules for them to followand theycan do as they please.”A resident, who spoke on condition of ano-

nymity, says it is unacceptable for councilto allow the squatters “to do as they please”.“I can’t just do as I please. If I decide not

to pay my rent tomorrow I will be put outof my house. We work hard for what wehave and then others come and steal yourpipes and gates. That is not fair,” she says.“I’m not blaming the squatters but they

definitely add to the problem. If an arealooks neglected then criminals think thearea is an easy target.”A business owner, who doesn’t want his

name mentioned, agrees saying elementsroaming around the streets is bad for busi-ness.“Sometimes people sleep in front of my

shop and I need to chase them away in themorning. They also leave cardboards andall kinds of items aroundwhich adds to thealready littered area,” he says.

“When trolley brigades come through thearea they let things drop from their trollieswithout picking it up and it really frustratesme. Customers don’t want to come to myshop if they are going to be harassed by beg-gars for money every five minutes,” thebusiness owner further explains.Resident Sharifa Omar says she doesn’t

have a problem with the squatters and feelsthey protect residents.“They have become a part of the area and

are very alert. I haveheard of them interven-ing when someone is being mugged. Peoplecan’t help for their circumstances and it iswrong for others to judge,” she says.Omar further says the City is responsible

for ensuring the area is cleaned.

@roxyh28

An international independent private highschool for boys recently opened its newschool premises in Bridgetown. The StarCollege Cape Town opened its doors andstarted the new school year on Wednesday21 January, giving its pupils a great startto their schooling career.The school currently accommodates

about 150 pupils from Grade 8 to 12, fromareas including Athlone, Lansdowne,Mitchell’s Plain and Claremont.According to Ahmet Kayya, deputy prin-

cipal of the school, the new premises boastsa three-storey building with 14 classrooms,administration offices, boarding facilitiesfor the pupils, a cafeteria, hall and labs.“We have similar buildings in the other

provinces, and decided to use the same de-sign for this building. The land which thenew school is built on was donated to thetrust,” says Kayya.He says a number of factors differentiate

the Star College Cape Town from otherschools.This include the small classeswith amax-

imumof 26 pupils, the staff do regular homevisits, they focus on mathematics and sci-ence, teachers give individual attention, the

school boasts a 100%matric pass rate everyyear, and they have qualified Turkish andSouth African teachers.“We promise our pupils a safe and secure

learning environment,” says Kayya.The school also offers exchange opportu-

nities for its pupils to Turkey.The new school is one of Star Internation-

al’s five campuses across Cape Town, andthere are a few other Star Internationalschools in Durban, Pretoria and Johannes-burg. “In terms of an educational facility,we are fully operational. We are doing allthe finishing touches on the premises. How-ever, our sport facilities will be completedat a later stage,” says Kayya.He says the official launch will take place

later this year.According to the website starcol-

legecpt.co.za, the Star College Cape Town ispart of the Horizon Educational Trustwhich was founded in 1998. It states thetrust has played a significant and extensiverole in fostering a good relationship be-tween South Africa and Turkey in the edu-cational, cultural and social fields.. The Star College Cape Townwill hold an

open day for high school boys at the newBridgetown campus on Saturday 7 Marchfrom 10:00 to 14:00. The school is situated at126 Tarentaal Road, Athlone.

RONDEBOSCH EAST

School terrorROWENA HENDRICKS

@roxyh28

The two alleged victims of an attack bya group of matric pupils at WindsorHigh School in Rondebosch East, as

well as the one’s sister who is in matric,have all been enrolled at a local college.A disciplinary hearing took place on

Tuesday 17 February. The two pupils, inGrade 11 and 9 respectively, were allegedlybeaten up at school leaving them with inju-ries (“School fight turns messy”, People’sPost, 17 February). The parent of one of thepupils submitted photos to People’s Post.According to theGrade 11 pupil’smother,

who does notwant to be named , the hearingwas “biased” towards the group of allegedperpetrators, who remain at the school.She expressed extreme disappointment

in theway theprincipal andgoverningbodyhandled the incident.“No one from the education department

was present [at the hearing] and the princi-pal kept on telling another school governingbody member what to say, when to shut upparents and when to ignore a statement,”she explains.She says video evidence thatwas circulat-

ed after the fight was also not allowed to besubmitted as evidence during the hearing.“Thevideo shows the truth of how the two

boys were beaten, kicked and held down bythree Grade 12 pupils,” she says.“We were told to send it to the principal’s

private email address, which does not workor even exist. While waiting in the corridorduring the hearing, my son was also taunt-ed by one of the alleged perpetrators.”The Grade 9 pupil’s mother, a governing

body member at the school, together withher son walked out of the hearing after shewas apparently told in “a very stern tone”not to ask certain questions.

“We went into the meeting with openminds, aswe considered the future of all pu-pils involved. Even an apology would havebeen good enough,” adds the Grade 11 pu-pil’s mother.She says they are definitely considering

taking legal action against the school andeducation department, as well as the groupof Grade 12 pupils.Paddy Attwell, who heads communica-

tion at the provincial education depart-ment, confirms a disciplinary hearing washeld on 17 February.He says those present at the hearing in-

cluded the “five accused, their parents orguardians and other representatives, aswell as the school governing body panel, theprincipal and [a provincial education de-partment] official”, which is in line withprocedure.“In this case, all five pupils faced the same

charges, namely assault andmaking verbalor written threats.”Attwell says the process includes charg-

ing those allegedly responsible, the leadingof evidence and providing all concernedwith opportunities to state their case.“The disciplinary panel will reach a ver-

dict after hearing all sides and weighing upthe evidence.”He says the governing body panel has not

yet completed its findings, but “will consid-er all evidence before reaching a verdict”.“The governing body will consider the

video footage and all other evidence, includ-ing events leading up to the altercation.”He confirmed that themother of oneof the

accused walked out of the hearing with herson and that the parents of the two pupilshave since withdrawn their sons from theschool. “The hearing adjourned to allowtime for electronic evidence to be submit-ted. The school governing body expects tocomplete the disciplinary process shortly.”

BELGRAVIA

Toying withsafetyTARRENLEE HABELGAARN

@LeeLaVidaLoca

The blind, cyclists and commuterssaymotorists are playingwith theirsafety.

Residents of Belgravia are speakingout against motorists who park illegallyon pavements where the bicycle lanesrun.

These tracks, implemented by the Cityof Cape Town, are being utilised daily bypeople who run, cycle and walk.

Whether it is to commute to and fromwork or school, users of the non-motor-ised transport (NMT) lanes say they feelmuch safer on the pavement than in theroad.

Cyclist Steven Fagodien says it hasbeen a big relief since the lanes were im-plemented.

“With the way cars and taxis drivethese days, I will much rather be on thepavement than in the road,” says Fagodi-en.

He says this system was a great idea,however, motorists parking illegally onthe pavement when they go for a visit orto mosque is “taking the joy away”.

“When people visit the mosque or goto the doctor they park wherever theyfeel and when they park on the pavementit forces us back into the road,” Fagodiensays.

A blind resident, who wishes to re-main anonymous, says most of the timehe walks down the road by himself and

the non-motorised system has made himfeel much safer.

He says it is very stressful when hebumps into a car parked on the pave-ment because he doesn’t know what theobject is.

“I don’t walk with a dog, I use my stick.When I’m walking down the road I amnot aware of an object in the road untilit is too late then I am forced to move intothe road,which is very stressful anddan-gerous,” says the resident.

Ward Councillor Magadien Davidssays he has received many complaintsfrom residents who are upset about vehi-cles parked on pavements.

He says this occurs mostly in front ofchurches, schools, mosques and busi-nesses where limited parking is availa-ble.

“I would like to appeal to motorists tobe respectful of those using the NMT sys-tem and to park only where space hasbeen allocated,” says Burger.

Resident Margaret Jansen says shehas noticed people parking illegally onthe streets but canunderstand theirneedto do so.

“Parking in the street, especially forchurch and mosque on a Friday, is verylimited in these areas and people aretherefore forced to park on the pave-ment. I’m not saying I approve of it butI can understand why they do it,” saysJansen. She says the problem mostly oc-curs on Fridays and festive days andthat’s why she isn’t really bothered.

Vandalism to community facilities, while at-tempting tomake a point, only leaves local res-idents worse off.

The OR Tambo Community Hall in Khayelitshawas set alight at theweekend, after several childrensuffered food poisoning after an event at the facility.In a meeting following the incident, residents in-

volved in protest action over a housing develop-ment also sought clarity on their concerns.In the early hours of Sunday morning, the hall

was torched. This is just one incident of a communi-ty facility being vandalised.Each week, parks, sporting facilities, community

halls and public toilets are vandalised and damagedacross the city.While this might gain the perpetrator a quick

buck or make a political point, local residents arethe ones ultimately paying the price.In many suburbs, gang violence is a daily occur-

rence and children have few safe diversions.Community facilities provide a safe space for the

youth to study, learnnewskills or takepart in extra-curricular activities.Denying them such opportunities will see more

children turning to crime or failing at school.These facilities are often the only place to meet,

compete in sport or relax with family and friends.When they are damaged, not only is the communi-

ty deprived of these activities, but the funds usedto repair those facilities are essentially wasted.If not put towards repairing damaged and vandal-

ised halls and parks, those funds could be chan-nelled toward improving infrastructure, buildinghouses and developing more community facilities.Isn’t it timeweall start treating community facili-

ties like the treasures they are?

EDITORIAL COMMENT

Caution

Every drop mattersIt is difficult to imagine anything morevulnerable than a baby born premature-ly.Sometimes [they are] so tiny that they

can lie inside the palm of your handoutstretched.Where nature would have it cradled

against the warmth of a mother’s breast,this child must seek comfort, nourish-ment and company from tubes andmonitors. As it draws its first breath it isalready in the midst of the fiercest battlefor its existence it is likely to ever know.When it comes to nutrition for babies,

quite simply nothing compares to breast-milk. The scientific evidence underpin-ning this fact is undisputed, and unfortu-nately we have not been able replicatethis wonder food in our laboratories.While formula milk is at best an ade-quate replacement for healthy babiesborn at full term, the range of complica-tions and development challenges facedby premature babies renders “laborato-ry” nutrition ineffective at increasing

their survival rate and future healthpotential. To complicate matters further,many of these vulnerable infants in theWestern Cape do not have access tobreastmilk from their mothers.It is at this point that Milk Matters

steps in to make a lifesaving interven-tion. As a community-based Milk Banksituated in the heart of Cape Town, MilkMatters sources breastmilk from healthyand screened donors, ensuring that theseinfants have less risk of disease, inparticular sepsis and necrotising entero-colitis, ultimately enabling the babies toreturn home sooner.Human Milk Banking Week which

takes place the first week of Marchaffords Milk Matters the opportunity toexpress our gratitude to the hundreds ofvolunteers and community members whoensure that these vulnerable infants haveaccess to breastmilk every single day ofthe year – from the freezers of donor-mother homes to the 18 depots aroundthe province to their final destination at

Mowbray Maternity Hospital. What isclear is that Milk Matters depends on anentire community structure to do itswork: the grandparents, aunts, unclesand in-laws who transport our preciouscommodity from as far afield as Worces-ter and Langebaan.Of course, none of what we do is

possible without the mothers who spenda lot of extra time expressing theirbreastmilk, an activity never eagerlyanticipated or fondly regarded. Whetherit is a one-off donation or donating forover a year every drop of milk counts tothe most vulnerable of our population.It is sometimes impossible to quantify

the true benefit of support given toorganisations that assist the country’smost vulnerable and needy. However, forMilk Matters support translates into avery measurable benefit: every drop ofextra breastmilk we can supply canliterary make all the difference.If you have any breastmilk to donate

or would like to contribute in otherways, please contact Milk Matters [email protected] or 021 659 5599.

Death of two cyclists: time to enforce the lawThe Pedal Power Association (PPA) issaddened by the death of yet anothercyclist. Roy Neil Smith, aged 70, recentlydied while cycling along Victoria Road inCamps Bay.In 2013, the provincial government

passed a law stating that drivers mustpass cyclists with a minimum of 1m andit is time that drivers adhere to the lawor be prosecuted.Drastic action needs to be taken by the

provincial government to enforce this lawto keep cyclists alive.The fatal accident appears to have been

caused by a bus forcing the cyclist intothe pavement where he fell and wassubsequently crushed by a constructiontruck.Several PPA members have reported

via social media channels of beingnarrowly missed by buses on this partic-ular stretch of road where road worksare currently taking place.“There is no road shoulder, yet the bus

drivers seem to just plough through atfull speed without even the slightestdeviation to give cyclists some room,”one comment reads.The time has come for bus services –

and indeed all companies that use largevehicles – to educate their drivers aboutthe vulnerability of cyclists, pointing outthat they are breaking the law in theWestern Cape by not passing at (at least)1m.In memory of the deceased and in

protest of the unnecessary deaths ofcyclists on our roads, the PPA will beplacing a ‘ghost bike’ at the spot wherethe fatal accident occurred during thePPA Safe Cycling ‘Stay Wider of theRider’ Awareness Ride on Saturday 28February.The PPA just heard of another fatal

accident on the notorious Clovelly/KalkBay Main Road where it seems a com-muter on his way to work was fatallyinjured.

The new law in the Western Cape isquite clear that a driver of a motorvehicle, who passes a cyclist on a publicroad, must exercise due care whilepassing the cyclist; leave a distancebetween the motor vehicle and the cyclistof at least 1m; and maintain that distancefrom the cyclist until safely clear of thecyclist.Statistics show that almost all cycling

fatalities on our roads are caused bycyclists being hit by a motor vehicle frombehind or when a vehicle underestimatesthe speed of a cyclist and turns in frontof the cyclist.Cyclists have almost no protection

when they are involved in an accident, soby giving them adequate space on theroads, motorists can avoid accidents thatcan cost precious lives. The road is foreveryone’s use, so let’s show toleranceand respect for one another.

POLITICS

New party launchedROWENA HENDRICKS

@roxyh28

A new political party established in Ma-nenberg last week will “reflect thedemographics of the country”.

This sentiment was shared by the leader-ship of the new Social Democratic Party(SDP), launched on 24 February.

SDP president Ricardo Sedres says theplight of the people of Manenberg, Mitchell’sPlain and Hanover Park will finally be takento heart.

Sedres and other party members at the

launch vowed they will focus on areas of so-cial and community development, crimeprevention and economic empowerment.

“The ANC and DA are historically exclu-sive political homes of blacks and whites re-spectively, leaving almost no room for col-oured people to express themselves.

“Our members are all community activ-ists, who have given years of their lives, ex-pertise and passion to bring about change,”says Sedres.

He says the current political climate inSouth Africa warrants the establishment ofa new political party that “really reflects the

national demographic of this country”.“Over the past 30 years we have noticed

that many have lost faith in the mainstreampolitical parties to represent them and theiraspirations. We (the SDP) have the colouredcommunities’ interest at heart.Ournationalexecutive are men and women who havepaid their dues in sweat, blood and tears. Wehave legitimate leaders who are passionateandcommitted to lasting change reliant onlyon values of cooperation, community con-sultation and transparency,” says Sedres.

He says theparty invites all to join theSDPin taking back their streets, courts and com-

munities.Gigi Richards, a community worker from

Hanover Park, says she is aware of the newpolitical party, but was unable to attend thelaunch. She says she fully trusts thenewpar-ty and its president to make a difference inthe communities. “He (Sedres) is a people’sperson and he definitely has the people’s in-terests at heart. We, the people of HanoverPark, will try and help him to make a differ-ence in our community,” says Richards.

Jody Lees, who works with youth, saysstarting a new political party is a bold move.“I think a new party can bring about changein these communities. With the right poli-cies and philosophies, and making God thecentre of the party, then only will the partystart tomake inroads towardsabetter futurefor all in Cape Town,” says Lees.

Sedres says the SDP will contest local mu-nicipal elections from 2016, mostly in theCape Town municipal areas.

Finding her purposeLOUISA STEYL

@LouNotes

A local singer is hoping to inspire otherswith her story when she takes to thestage at the Joseph Stone Auditorium

on Saturday 7 March.Athlone’s Natalie Johannes will present

her show Dear younger me with Nur Felix,Melissa Johanissen and MC Tracey Lange,togetherwithdramatic pieces byProject 021.“I’ve wanted to tell my story for a long

time, but I didn’t have the courage,” Nataliesays.Last year, Natalie and the band 5 Levels

Up raised R78 000 for Baphumelele, an or-phanage in Khayelitsha, with a show at StGeorge’s Cathedral.When her manager asked her about put-

ting on a show this year she decided: “Itneeds to have purpose, vision and a theme.”The purpose this time around is “to show

people that no matter how you grow up,there’s always a choice to make somethingof your life, despite your circumstances. Youstill have a purpose in life”.The first half of Dear younger mewill con-

sist of skits by Project 021, a communityyouth theatre group.“There are a few things that happen in the

skits that happened tomeas a child andhaveaffected me as an adult,” Natalie explains,pointing out that these issues, like bullyingand low self-esteem, are problems thatmanypeople have experienced at some point oftheir lives.The evening will also include poetry that

speaks to the skits, and of course singing anddancing.Natalie won’t just be focusing on the nega-

tive. A big part of the show with be about

“strength”.She wants to teach people that every per-

son has greatness inside themselves.The usually shy Natalie had to dig deep to

find her own greatness before getting up onstage alone. The singer says she’s still notentirely used to the attention but she’s grow-ing in confidence with every performance.Natalie started singing at church and

school before joining the PMP Choir underthe baton of Keith Rose. She says the choirandKeith gaveher a strongvocal foundationand it was there that the 29-year-old learntto “step out” into the limelight.From there she joined the cast of Family

Secrets where she met director David Cor-nelson, who runs Project 021. “I love his pas-sion for drama and tapping into what you’regood at.”Natalie says she wouldn’t be able to

present Dear younger me without the

group’s help. “They bring the excitement. Iwant to be an encouragement to people,” Na-talie says of the show, adding that she plansto do a lot more of this type of shows in thefuture.Besides the on-stage entertainment, the

audience can also look forward to a rafflewith prizesworth R14 000 up for grabs. Someof these include a stay at the Mount NelsonHotel, a gift voucher for Kitima inHout Bay,a VIP day in the presidential suite at New-lands Cricket Grounds, spa treatments, amagnum of Cap Classique and a dinner fortwo at Buitenverwachting.V Tickets for Dear younger me at Joseph Stone Audito-rium at 20:00 on Saturday 7 March cost between R80and R120 and are available at www.webtickets.co.za.

The dancing GalantsIt is not every day that you find afamily of dancerswho perform to-gether, especially in an event as

big as the Cape Town Carnival.The Galant family from Crawford

– BioRithm group leader Rukaya,her husband Mansoor and his pa-rents Omar and Marel – are part ofBioRithm, which is a communitydance fitness company specialisingin the fitness revolution called Zum-ba.The Galant family has been per-

forming as part of BioRithm in theCape Town Carnival since 2013 andare grateful for the lessons it hastaught each of them.“We’ve worked to a point where

we each have our own duties andresponsibilities when it comes togetting things done. We’ve learnt tocommunicate better individually,and as a group, while working to-wards the same goal,” says Rukaya.Omar adds: “It allowsus to set asi-

de whatever differences or occasio-nal disputes we have and just danceand have fun together, while alsobringing joy to others in our group.”Rukaya started dancing five ye-

ars ago when her love for Zumbawas discovered.“I wanted to bring Zumba into the

community.”And that is just what she did

through BioRithm.Mansoor has been dancing since

the age of four and first performedwith BioRithm in the Cape TownCarnival in 2011. Omar started dan-cing in 2012, the same year he alsobecame a Zumba instructor.Marel, who started dancing when

she was 10, says: “As a child I loveddancing and took every opportunityto do so, but as I became older lifehappened and dancing took a stepback. My passion for dancing wasreignited in 2011 when I started per-forming with Biorithm in the Cape

Town Carnival.”For the Galant family, perfor-

ming at the Cape Town Carnival isan honour and a privilege.They are given a platform where

they can share their passion andstory with everyone.Marel says she would like to in-

spirewomen to realise that “you arenever too old to do what you loveand can keep fit by having fun”.Rukaya, Mansoor and Marel are

Royalties paid outThe Performers’ Organisation of SouthAfri-ca Trust (Posa) has started the distributionofNeedletime rights royalties to artistswho-se tracks have been used by music users.This brings to anend the longwait forhun-

dreds of South African featured artists andsession musicians waiting to receive royal-ties for their recorded performances.Posa distributes the rights on behalf of re-

cording artists who are represented by Sam-ro. The first distribution, for 2009 royalties,was done on 23 December 2014. Subsequentdistributions, for the years between 2010 and2012, were done in January and February.This followed the agreement reached in

September 2014 between Posa and Sampraon the sharingofNeedletimerights royalties

between record companies and performersfeatured in the tracks that were used bymu-sic users. Pfanani Lishiva, Samro executivegeneral manager: rights holder services,says that the amounts that have not yet beenprocessed and distributed are those belon-ging to tracks that have not been registeredwithPosa. Posahasbeen tracingandcontac-ting the relevant featured artists.“It is also important to state that the Sam-

ro board of directors and the Posa board oftrustees took a decision that, for these distri-butions, Posa would not charge any admini-stration fee. This means that nothing hasbeen deducted from the performers’ royal-ties,” said Lishiva.V Visit www.samro.org.za for more information.

The Sanlam Cape Town Marathon hasbeen awarded the coveted Silver Labelstatus by the International Association

of Athletics Federations (IAAF) – the firstmarathon on the continent to be awardedthis classification.

According to Wikipedia, Silver Label sta-tus means that at least five nations are to berepresented by runners with times fasterthan the IAAF’s guidelines. Additionally,the race course must be closed to vehiculartraffic, and measured to the Association ofInternational Marathons and Distance Ra-ces (AIMS) standard, with full electronictiming used to generate the results. The racemust be organised in a way that minimizesecological damage to the surrounding areas.A specified number of doping tests must becarried out, and prize-money for the partici-pants should be equal, irrespective of genderor nationality, though additional rewardscanbegiven to runners fromthehostnation.

This year the marathon will be held overthe weekend of 19 and 20 September. Entrieswill open on 1 March and organisers expect20 000 entries.

The marathon has R1.6 million in totalprize money.

“The bar has certainly been raised quitehigh and as we launch this year’s event, theorganisers have set yet another challenge –the IAAF’s Gold Label status for the SanlamCape TownMarathon.We are confident thatthis will also be achieved in no time,” saidCarl Roothman, Chief Executive: Retail:Sanlam Investments speaking at a mediabriefing.

A significant milestone has already beenreached towards the achievement of theGold Label status. The Sanlam Cape TownMarathon is one of the first sporting eventsin South Africa to be declared carbon neu-tral.

Additionally, Africa’s largest vitamins

and nutritional supplements brand, VitalHealth Foods, has been appointed develop-mental partner for the Sanlam Cape TownMarathon to help assist with the develop-ment of the sport in South Africa. Technicalpartner Asics, alongwith Sanlam, will spon-sor a trip for two people to take part in the2016 Paris Marathon, as a prized reward fora lucky entrant wanting to experience whatthe essence of a world-class Gold Label sta-tus marathon is.

“The Silver Label status puts the SanlamCape Town Marathon on the race calendarfor the top tier international runners in 2015.Weare excited to be planning a spectator ori-entated event over the Heritage Day week-end,” said Elana Meyer, marathon brandambassador.

Last year’s event in September drew over12 500 athletes, 5 000 more runners than theprevious year. It was won by Kenyan WillyKibor Koitile in a time of 2:10:45.

PEOPLE'S POST | ATHLONETuesday, 3 March 2015 SPORT 15

The annual 10 km BigWalk just gets big-ger and bigger and the 16th edition heldon Sunday was no different.

More than 20 000 people of all ages took tothe streets of Cape Town for the Big Walkwhich came to a close at the Green PointTrack. Walkers were spurred on by enthusi-astic crowds of cheering supporters on a daymarked by sunshine, excitement and cama-raderie.People’s Post is the media partner of the

walk.“We were delighted to see another fantas-

tic turnout to the event this year. This isWil-lowton Group’s fourth Big Walk sponsor-ship and the inaugural event title sponsor-ship for the Sunfoil brand,” said ShoaibMoosa, sales and marketing director of theWillowton Group.There has been a steady increase in num-

bers since the event started 15years agowithmore than 7 560 competitors and it has be-come an annual highlight of Cape Town’ssporting calendar both for those who com-plete the course and those who come alongto support their friends and family mem-

bers.“There is no doubt that it meets a commu-

nityneedand it is obviouswhy ithasbecomeso popular. It is a professionally run eventthat gives active, health-conscious peoplethe chance to combine some hearty exercisewith a fun day out with family and friendsamid beautiful scenery. The atmosphere ofpositive energy and relaxed social interac-tion is clearly attractive to people of allages,” Moosa said.“At the same time, all those takingpart are

helping others less than fortunate thanthemselves because the Red Cross Chil-dren’s Hospital is a major beneficiary of theevent,” Moosa said.Doctor Elias Parker, the walk’s sponsor-

ship manager said: “It has been an absolutehonour and privilege to once again be giventhe opportunity to present to our people thismega-social sporting event. It is indeed a re-flection of the sterling support that the eventhas attracted, that resulted in the City ofCape Town accrediting the Sunfoil 10kmBigWalk as the third biggest social sportingevent on its calendar.”
