Theft out ofvehicles up 300%ANDRE BAKKES

INCIDENTS of theft out of cars reportedto the Bergvliet, Kreupelbosch and

Meadowridge Neighbourhood Watch –better known as BKM Watch – have in-creased 300% for the period April, Mayand June when compared with the sameperiod last year.

“Some of these incidents may not have beenreported to the police for various reasons, soas far a crime figures go, these are probablysome of the most comprehensive around,”says head of BKM Watch, Tony Schreiber.

This massive increase is mostly due to thegrowing negligence of car owners - a scourgethat law-enforcers are growing ever moreconcerned about.

Wynberg, Diep River, Kirstenbosch andHout Bay police have all experienced an in-crease in the number of these crimes in theirrespective jurisdictions.

Despite their best efforts to educate thepub-lic, people still leave valuables in their vehi-cles for opportunists to steal.

Warrant Officer Keith Chandler, spokes-person for Diep River police, first drew atten-tion to general negligence within the precinctlast Friday when he analysed all the theft cas-es for the past 80 days and discovered thatmost of the thefts – 39municipalwheelie bins,30 cellphones and 13 bicycles – could havebeen prevented.

“I would say the majority of cases reportedat our station is down to negligence. Howmany times do we have to tell the public tobe careful?” asks Chandler.

“Just last week we walked through a park-ing area and saw two cars with laptops lyingon the front seats!”

People’s Post did its own case study over theweekend. This reporter walked through sev-eral parking areas along Main Road - fromTokai to Plumstead - and discovered that 41of the 100 vehicles inspected had some kindof valuable item lyingonorbetween the seats.

Three cars were noted to contain laptops inplain view, 23 had clothing items, 17 had gro-

ceries, eight had cellphones and 11 had otheritems such as GPS devices or sports bags.

Some of these vehicles were parked in“guarded” areas, but as Wynberg Policespokesperson, Captain André Venter, says:“People rely too much on these guards.”

Venter continues vehemently: “Theft is ourgreatest concern. We did a case study atschools recently where we asked grades six,seven and eight learners about their cell-phones. Ninety percent of them have phonesand 85% of them have either lost one beforeor had one stolen. This all comes down to neg-ligence.

The parents give their children somethingof value without teaching them about how tolook after it.” He admits, however, that adultsare equally guilty of negligence.

“Theft out of motor vehicles is very worry-ing. I have seen many laptops and leatherjackets in cars. We are literally inviting op-portunists to steal it,” he explains.

BKM Watch’s Schreiber agrees with Chan-dler and Venter, but says there is more to theincrease than meets the eye.

“A big portion of these cases are for insur-ance fraud, which can be linked to the eco-nomic downturn,” he muses. According tohim it is, nonetheless, “plain stupid” if oneleaves something like a laptop in a car.

“People live with their heads in the sand.Rather put valuables in the boot of the car.”

Schreiber says the hot spots for theft out ofcars in the BKM Watch area are all alongMain Road. A Diep River police initiative runin conjunction with BKM Watch sees hun-dreds of education and prevention pamphletsdistributed amongst the public, but this kindof crime is still climbing.

Diep River Community Policing Forum’s(CPF) chairperson, Cecil Watts, draws a par-allel between negligence and apathy.

“The public must get involved in the pre-vention of crime, not only by being more care-ful, but being more vigilant by getting in-volved in neighbourhood watches and CPFs.The public has a right to be safe, but they alsohave an obligation to assist the police,” heconcludes.

Chandler, Venter and Schreiber also hadplenty to say about other forms of neglect,such as when residents leave their municipalwheelie bins on the pavement instead of keep-ing them locked away.

“It could be used as a stepladder,” says Sch-reiber. “Only put it out the day the garbagetruck comes by and bring it in as soon as pos-sible,” he reasons.

Venter says some residents leave food onthe bins, which draws vagrants into theneighbourhood. “Soon you can have five orsix skollies monitoring your house,” he con-cludes.

Local is proudly lekkerAS PART of the 93 000 Jobs for MandelaDay Campaign, Proudly South African(Proudly SA) will host South Africa’s firstBuy Local Indaba and Expo, focusing on lo-cal procurement at the Sandton Conven-tion Centre on Thursday 29 and Friday 30September.

The theme of the Indaba is “Be ProudlySouth African - Buy Local to Create Jobs”which is the key message of Proudly SouthAfrica’s marketing and communicationcampaign. The Expo will showcase Proud-ly South African member companies’ serv-ice offerings and manufactured productsavailable from all sectors of business inSouth Africa, and aims to create a networkthat can link all state organs and corporatebusiness to local suppliers.

According to Dalene du Preez, executivemanager of marketing and communica-tions at Proudly South African, for the con-sumer, attending the Indaba will makethem aware of local brands that they cansupport in the marketplace and what op-portunities “are out there” for local entre-preneurs.

It’s also a great way for the youth and em-ployees to engage new company networksin a relaxed and non-pressurised environ-ment.

The two-day Buy Local Indaba includespresentations and talks on local procure-ment, local manufacturing and job crea-tion opportunities, with a special focus onthepriority sectors as identifiedbygovern-ment.

These presentations will take place from09:00 to 16:00 and are open to corporates ina conference seating setting. Attendance at

the Buy Local Indaba presentations is free,but pre-registration is required. The cen-trepiece of the two-day event will be thehosting of the prestigious Proudly SAHomegrown Awards, which are sponsoredby PetroSA, South Africa’s national oilcompany.

The awards will see Proudly SA membercompanies recognised and rewarded fortheir commitment to job-creation, environ-mental responsibility, fair labour practic-es and the production of high-quality goodsor services.

Kaizer Nyatsumba, PetroSA’s head ofcorporate affairs and communications,says the state-owned firm’s sponsorship ofthe Homegrown Awards is necessitated bya need to develop local companies that cancompete with the best in the world.

“At PetroSA we view the development oflocal suppliers as critical to our own suc-cess. We often are compelled to utilise theservices of foreign firms due to the non-availability of suitably-qualified South Af-rican companies. Supporting the Homeg-rown Awards ensures we assist in develop-ing and recognising local expertise,” hesays. The Proudly SA Homegrown Awardswill takeplace on 29September at theSand-ton Convention Centre.

And for the first time the HomegrownAwards are going to be a public interactiveprocess. Consumers can vote for their fa-vourite Proudly South African companythrough the following websites:www.proudlysa.co.za; www.face-book.com/proudlysa and www.twit-ter.com/proudlysa. There are also weeklyprize give-aways up for grabs.

Train rideends in terrorLILLIAN AMOS & HANRIE BOSCH

INTERNATIONAL Mandela Day onMonday 18 July turned into “67 min-

utes of hell” involving four broken ribsand 14 stitches in the head for one Metro-rail commuter at Heathfield Station.

Jody Marz has been commuting by train forjust over a month from Cape Town to South-field. He even recently sold his car in favourof commuting by train, which according tohim, should have been “less stressful thandriving to town every day”.

At 20:30 Marz’s “relaxing” train trip turnedinto his worst nightmare. As Marz got off athis usual stop he was approached by threearmed attackers.

“I noticed the men in the train, as they werein the same carriage and kept on looking atme, but I just tried to avoid their gaze.”

“I remember distinctly how they used a tab-loid newspaper with the Mandela celebrationheadline to jam a broken door in the train,and found it quite funny. When I saw themgetting off at the same stop as me I rememberthinking I had to walk behind them becausethey looked quite suspicious.”

Recounting the event, Marz says the menlooked like they were “on something” and hefelt it would be better to keep his distance.

Just before the exit at the station the threemen turned around, pointed a gun and toldhim: “We are going to kill you.”

Feeling threatened, Marz responded byfighting back. “I found it very weird that theydidn’t ask forvaluables, they just toldme theywere going to kill me. My first instinct wasto fight for my life. if they had asked for myphone or any other valuables I would havegiven it to them without hesitation.”

After a brief scuffle and after being pistolwhipped on the head, Marz found himselfthrown three metres down onto the train

tracks. “I must have passed out from landingon the tracks but woke up a couple of secondslater and they were still beating and kickingme.”

Marz is still baffled that during the entireincident the men did not once ask him for anyof his valuables, even though he was wearingPrada glasses and had more than R800 in cashin his wallet. He also feels that he was target-ed because they saw him as a “white stupididiot” travelling alone that time of the night.

After a few minutes of his frantic calls forhelp at the bottom of the train tracks, the menran away, stealing only his Blackberryphone.

Bystanders called the police and once theattackers fled an unknown woman screamedat Marz to get off the track in fear of oncomingtrains.

“I heard her calls, but could not move, Thatis when i realised that something was seri-ously wrong.

Only then did Metrorail security arrive onthe scene.

A couple in a green Nissan Sentra passingalso heard his cries and stopped to offer help.The flying squad arrived within 15 minutesand pursued the suspects, but this yielded noresults as the three apparently split up toavoid being caught.

Marz describes the couple in the Nissan asbeing his “angels”. “Without them I don’tknow what would’ve happened to me.”

The couple managed to take Marz to ahouse where his girlfriend was at the time.His girlfriend phoned an ambulance to takehim tohospital, but the ambulanceworker in-formed her that they would take a few min-utes as they first needed to respond to a simi-lar incident at Steenberg Station. She wasconcerned, as Marz is a diabetic and could gointo shock or a coma as a lot of blood waspouring from the cut in his head. She thenopted to take him to Constantiaberg Hospital

herself.Since he started using the train system,

Marz has been an advocate and promoter ofthe Metrorail system that has received a badreputation over the past years, and says thathe had always felt safe up until the incident.

“In the beginning I was bragging to every-body at how safe the trains were, but now Idon’t think I will ever use the train systemagain, as there is just not enough security onplatforms or trains. I will have to buy a caragain in order for me to get to work becausethe train system has failed me.”

Kevin Southgate, Steenberg CommunityPolice Forum chairperson, says: “It is an on-going battle for commuters who travel bytrain. There has to be stricter security en-forcement at stations. This incident is an in-dication that these commuters are being tar-geted.”

“If Metrorail wants to encourage commut-ers to continue travelling by train, they haveto make it safer for them.”

Metrorail has been unavailable for com-ment since Thursday 21 July. Marz wantsMetrorail to be held responsible for what hap-pened, but has also had no success in gettinghold of Metrorail officials since the incident.Marz feels that his incident was just recordedfor statistical purposes by Metrorail securityofficials and nothing more will be done about

it. But Marz is adamant that he will not allowMetrorail, or his attackers to get away withwhat they have done, and will fight to get aresolution.

Constable Diedre Solomon, spokespersonfor the Kirstenhof Police Station, confirmedthat a case of armed robbery had beenopened.

Marz says he is extremely grateful for theassistance he got, but would like the peoplewho assisted him to come forward so he canthank them and also for them to become pos-sible witnesses in the case that has beenopened.

BKM Watch radionetwork pays dividendsANDRE BAKKES

THE power of a neighbourhood watch ra-dio network and the collaboration of lawenforcement agencies were once againunderlined when stolen items were re-turned to the complainant just 12 hoursafter the theft was first reported.

OnWednesdayat aroundmidday, theBKMWatch offices received a frantic call from aBergvliet shop owner to inform them thattwo suspectshad stolen several highly-valua-ble industrial tools.

An alert about the suspects and the vehiclethey were driving was immediately put ontothe radio network.

Patrollers and Kirstenhof police reacted toa foot patroller’s sighting of the vehicle nearthe Retreat Station.

It was ascertained from the car details thatit belonged to someone who lives in Steen-berg. Police went to the house to investigate,but no-one was home.

It soon came to light that the owner of thevehicle had lent it to a friend during the day,so after some quick follow-up investigationby the SAPS, the suspects were arrested and

detained at the police station.. Diep River, Wynberg and Metro Police,

in conjunction with Traffic Services, held aroadblock on the M3 recently when theychecked 733 passing vehicles. Twenty-threefines were issued at a value of just underR10 000. Pamphlets regarding traffic safetyand residential crime awareness informa-tion were also distributed.

. A Grade 8 boy from Wynberg Boys Highwill have to catch up all the work he’s doneso far this year after his K-Way hiking bagcontaining all his school books were stolenon Friday out of a vehicle parked at BergvlietSports Club. Timothy Rogerson’s mother,Kerry, has already come to terms with thefact that she will have to replace all the con-tents of the bag, but she nonetheless asks an-yone who may have seen the stolen booty toreturn it to her.

“Timothy was playing squash for thisschool when someone broke into the van,”she says. “He is obviously very upset, be-cause there were things inside that cannotbe replaced, like a Sweet Valley Primarymemorabilia pen.” Anyone who finds the bagor the contents can contact Kerry Rogersonon 083 294 6825.

Ticket fining system ‘humiliating’ANDRE BAKKES

METRORAIL commuters continue toboard trains without valid tickets

despite the deterrent of facing a fine ofR40, and, even worse, being held in aroom likened to a jail cell.

Twocommuters, Lee-AnnBell andBradleySolomons, reported their “harrowing” expe-rience to People’s Post on 14 July, when theywere held in two tiny rooms crammed withpeople after being caught in first class with-out tickets.

It was one of the rare occasions that Belltook the train, but she says she had an impor-tant interview that she couldn’t miss.

The trains were delayed that day, so theplatform at Retreat station was packed withimpatient commuters. Bell and Solomons re-alised that the only way they could reachtheir destination in time was to board a firstclass coach and swap over to third class a fewstations later.

“Many others were getting into first classas well,” says the angry Solomons.

“We went from Retreat to Heathfield to Di-ep River, and when we came to Plumstead,30 or 40 people were pulled out of the car-riage.”

According to the two, the inspectors whowere waiting at Plumstead Station were ex-cessively forceful during the removal.

They were split up, with Bell taken to aroom at the station with about 40 women in-side already and Solomons to a room with 90men squeezed in.

“I was told that I’ll be kept in the room untilI pay the fine of R40,” says Bell.

Solomons adds: “There was a sick man inour room who had to go to hospital, but theywouldn’t release him. Another man had to goto the parole office, and if he wasn’t there ontime he said he could even go to jail again.”

After two hours, Bell and Solomons were

finally released after someone they knowpaid the fines.

Lindelo Matya, regional manager of Metro-rail, responds: “Our stance is compliant withpolicy and law. Travelling without a validticket or in the incorrect travelling class forthe ticket purchased unfortunately is a crimi-nal offence in terms of the Legal SuccessionAct, Act 9 of 1989. We are inundated with com-plaints from fare-paying Metro Plus custom-

ers who complain about the invasion of theircoaches. It remains a challenge to ensure abalance between demand and capacity inboth travelling classes. With current resourc-es at our disposal, the most effective way todeal with the matter is through special ac-tions. These comprise random actions ontrains and at stations with space to processcommuters.”

Those found to be in contravention of the

law are required to wait in the station’s“processing area” until they have been “proc-essed”.Matya continues: “Hundreds of commutersare removed from trains each month duringMetrorail’s fare recovery actions. The cost ofnon-compliance can be high, as scores end upbeing prosecuted as a result. Some 185 offend-ers are prosecuted every month for rail-relat-ed offences.” She says, however, that custom-ers must be dealt with courteously and pro-fessionally. If not, Metrorail encouragescustomers to report unprofessional behav-iour to the station manager immediately toenable him or her to take action.”

Bell and Solomons’ story is just one of sev-eral almost identical experiences other com-muters have had and told People’s Post about.

Malcolm Bates wrote a letter to People’sPost at the beginning of this year in whichhe said: “There was a time when you knewthat you could, in an emergency, purchaseyour ticket on the train and admittedly paya booking fee.

Herding defaulters across tracks at a busystation is humiliating, dangerous and unpro-fessional in the extreme.”

Metrorail’s Riana Scott replied at the time:“Unfortunately, overcrowding places a bur-den on aged infrastructure. This means thatwe may continue to have trains break downon occasions and continue to suffer random/unanticipated delays due to a myriad rea-sons, from mechanical defects, track condi-tions and overhead/signal wiring, to extremeweather conditions.

“All this is as a result of years of under-in-vestment in passenger rail services whichPRASA, through its operator Metrorail, isplanning to rectify over the next five years.”

First zebra foalin nine yearsA CAPE MOUNTAIN ZEBRA foal wasborn on Tuesday 19 July in the Cape ofGood Hope section of the Table MountainNational Park.

A foal was last born over nine years agoand as a result, staff are monitoring the new-comer very carefully.

The park is therefore appealing to the pub-lic and hikers not to try and approach themother and her foal on foot, but to keep asafe and respectful distance.

The family group is very protective of thenewcomer, and will act aggressively to-wards anyone trying to approach them.

The mother and foal are close to the CapePoint Main Road, and visitors and tour oper-ators have been asked to respect the speedlimit of 60km/h and slow down if the familygroup of zebras are seen.

The sex of the newcomer has not yet beendetermined.

However, staff are monitoring the familyclosely, and will allow the group of zebrasto settle down first before photographingthem and recording key information.

Two baboons‘killed in secret’DALEEN FOUCHÉ

WIDESPREAD unhappiness at thelack of transparency and accounta-

bility by the Baboon Operational Teamhas followed the recent euthanasia of an-other two baboons.

Jimmy, the notorious raiding baboonfrom the Smitswinkel troop outside Simon’sTown, and a baboon known as TK8, from theTokai troop, famous for stealing food fromdomestic workers and raiding a shop inTokai Road, were put todeath on Friday 15 July.

The authority responsi-ble for baboon manage-ment on the Cape Peninsu-la is the Baboon Opera-tional Team (Ops Team)comprised of the City ofCape Town, CapeNatureand SANParks.

The Baboon LiaisonGroup, an organisationcomprising ratepayers’and residents’ associa-tions in areas adjacent tobaboon habitats, receivedofficial documentationfrom authorities relating to the euthanasiaof the two animals on Wednesday 20 July.

Greame Noble, chairperson of BLG, saysthe BLG previously had an “agreement”with the Baboon Operational Team that theauthorities would inform BLG and presentthem with relevant documentation when adecision was made to euthanise another ba-boon.

Noble says theBLGdoesnot agreewith the“manner and the secrecy” in which these ba-boons were euthanised. “There should be op-portunity for debate,” he says.

But Dr Elzette Jordan, veterinarian for theCity’s Biodiversity Management Branchand spokesperson for the Ops team, says thebaboons were not euthanised “in secret”.She says the BLG had been aware of theplans for the past six months.

She says the Ops Team did not euthanisethe baboons six months ago, when it wasoriginally proposed. “We wanted to see ifJimmy would take over Fred’s place as thealpha male for the Smitswinkel troop, butthat did not happen.”

Fred, the “disputed” alpha male of theSmitswinkel troop was euthanised on 25March (“Protests over Fred the baboon’s

death”, People’s Post, 29 March).Jordan says the authorities also believed

that there has not been enough public educa-tion regarding baboons in the Tokai area,which is why they postponed the decision toeuthanise him.

But Jordan says both baboons became in-creasingly aggressive and a threat to humansafety.

“Their behaviour became out of control,”she says. Jordan says both Jimmy and TK8used to “lunge” at people, adding that Jimmywas known for even breaking windows to

raid houses.Jimmy and TK8 were the

fourth and fifth baboons tobe killed under the contro-versial baboon protocol interms of which raiding ba-boons are managed, whichwas implemented a year ago(“The new baboon proto-col”, People’s Post, 20 July).

But Jordan argues thatthey have to put baboonsdown in a “humane” and“peaceful” manner, other-wise people might kill themin “a much worse way”.

Jenni Trethowan, fromBaboon Matters, was only aware that Jimmywas euthanised, but did not know that TK8had also been put down when People’s Postcontacted her last week. She says her biggestproblem with the current baboon manage-ment was the secrecy and lack of transparen-cy regarding decisions. She insists that if au-thorities believe they are making a good de-cision, even if it is an unpopular decision,it should survive public scrutiny.

Trethowan says she has raised legitimatereasons for her objections to the euthanasia,but has been ignored by authorities. Thenew baboon protocol under which raidingbaboons are managed is controversial, be-cause five baboons have been killed in thespace of one year. “No-one denies that the oldprotocol needed to be reviewed, but no ba-boons were killed under the old protocol.”

Trethowan is also concerned about thelack of real decision-making power of theBLG, which represents the communities.

Jordan says the Ops Team plans to releasea report every six months that will detail ba-boon management, including naturaldeaths, dispersing males, troop movementsand actions taken under the protocol. “Wedo not consider these actions as secret.”

development is to raise one’s levelof consciousness.

When whole communities raise their levelof consciousness a social conscience devel-ops. And it is this which sustains social ac-tions. The Mustadafin Foundation, whichwas established during the apartheid era in1986, can proudly call upon all its benefactorsand beneficiaries to celebrate its 25th anni-versary. What should not be forgotten is thatin only eight years of the 25 years , the Mus-tadafin Foundation were under the new re-gime which is called the post – apartheid Re-gime. Racism, oppression, exploitation, hun-ger, starvation, malnutrition, homelessness,illiteracy, innumeracy, alcohol, and drug ad-diction, corruption, HIV/Aids and a host ofother social diseases was what the Mus-tadafin Foundation was fighting for againstsince the launch of the post-apartheid re-gime.

Some are of the opinion that the anti-apart-heid struggle was sustained by non-govern-mental organisations.

That is not entirely correct. The anti-apart-

heid struggle was sustained by anti-govern-ment organisations.

There were organisations that were tech-nically called NGOs but did nothing but im-plement, protect and advance the racistagenda of the apartheid regime.

Some still do. The Mustadafin Foundationcan proudly call upon all its benefactors andbeneficiaries to commemorate the social sac-rifices of the past decades.

They are highly conscious of the fact thatno human being is born into a social, histori-cal, political or economic vacuum.

A judge of the High Court said that theydidn’t expect that there would be a need fororganisations like the Mustadafin Founda-tion under the post-apartheid regime butnow they realise they were mistaken.

But, of course there is an enormous differ-ence between poverty management (and mis-management), poverty alleviation and pov-erty eradication. As long as there is one hu-man being who is poor, needy and destitute,there will be a need for organisations like theMustadafin Foundation.

Mustadafin Foundation wishes all Mus-lims Ramadaan Kareem.

Tuesday 26 July 2011 LETTERS People’s Post ConstantiaWynberg

Taxi licences untangledIN the article “Taxi in-dustry ‘victimised’”, Peo-ple’s Post, 19 July, taxiassociations alleged theCity impounds taxis as ameans of generating rev-enue, and that they oftenimpound taxis for minorroute deviations.

They also alleged thatthe City is three monthsbehind with the processof legalising operatorswith dormant licences,but that provincialTransport MEC RobinCarlisle’s office ordersthe impounding of mini-bus taxis when the Cityhas not finalised the le-galisation process.

This is the responsefrom Carlisle’s office,which was received afterPeople’s Post’s printdeadline:

THE identification andcancellation of dormant op-erating licences is a projectchampioned by the Provin-cial Government of theWestern Cape, in partner-ship with the City of CapeTown. This work is carriedout by a sub-committee ofthe Joint Working Group(JWG), led by the nationalDepartment of Transport.

Both the South African Na-tional Taxi Council (SANTA-CO), national and provincial[bodies] are represented onthe JWG.

It is anticipated that theproject will be completed bythe end of October 2011. Thesedormant operating licencescompletely skews the balancebetween supply and demand,and leads municipalities toproclaim that routes are over-traded. Many operators have,over the years, opted to leavethe industry for various rea-sons, but mainly because ofconflict and instability. Veryfew of these operators, howev-er, informed the ProvincialOperating Licence Board ofthis intentionwith the requestto cancel the permit or operat-ing licence. In the case of in-definite permits/operating li-cences, these authorities willremain active in the LandTransport Permit System foryears to come, and are count-ed in as part of the supply anddemand analysis. These dor-mant operating licences/per-mits can only be cancelled if itis reported by associations,and this is the message we aretrying to get across to the in-dustry.

Inmost cases the gaps left byholders of dormant licences/

permits have been filledby illegal operators whohave become entrenchedin the system. From gov-ernment’s side, we aremaking every effort towork with the associa-tions and SANTACO toidentify and cancel suchdormant permits/operat-ing licences (following theNLTA section 78 process)and to allow associationsto legalise long-serving il-legal operators in the proc-ess (where there is de-mand). Compliance withthe law remains non-nego-tiable, and the law must beenforced without fear orfavour.

We are trying our best tostreamline the process,but the law is clear on thematter of illegal operators.No person may operate aroad-based public trans-port service without hold-ing the required operatinglicences (section 50 of NL-TA).

On a positive note, morethan 200 operators have al-ready benefited from thisproject.STEVEN OTTERMedia liaison officer in theMinistry for Transport andPublic Works

Your SMSesFamily evicted in Westlake

. Unbelievable! Westlakecampus workers are to beevicted because the judgeruled this, yet foreigners il-legally occupying a housesin Bishopscourt (nogal) aswell as land in the CBD inCape Town seemingly can-not be touched. What onearth is going on here?Armin Martin

. The eight families thatwere evicted from False BayCollege in Westlake havebeen failed by the justicesystem and the college coun-cil.

Taxi drama. I’m in the meter taxi in-

dustry since the year 2000and just before the WorldCup started the new MyCitibuses started to operate. It’smaking me and my familysuffer.

. It is fantastic that theCity Police are clampingdown on unroadworthy, un-licensed, reckless taxiswhich have and are stillcausing chaos. Dangerousdriving will not be tolerated.We have all been victimisedby these drivers driving usoff the roads. Keep it up.

Animal matters. Could the SPCA or the

local council please explainwhy nothing has been doneto the people selling livechickens in the most inhu-mane way for years at thecorner of Duinefontein andLansdowne roads? Abdul-lah

. People thatsell chickens limpand half dead fromheat and a lack ofwater, then packthem into tiny box-es: it is horrible towitness. They should beprosecuted. Daniel

. About the live chickensthat are being sold, can oneask the SPCA or TEARS fortheir help? Colleen

. Whenever you witnessinhumane treatment of anycreature such as the sellingof live chickens, please helpthem by reporting it to SPCAon (021) 700-4158/9. BM

By the way. How pathetic can the

cops be? If you phone themto respond to a crime theytake forever. But the wife ofa merchant phones them forpeople that stand peacefullyat a fire and they respondwithin seconds. Gatvol

. Why is it so difficult tofind a school that would ac-commodate pupils for Grade9 mid-year? They can onlyassist the last term, so thechildren get school fees,school clothes and station-ery at Christmas.

. How are we supposed towork when most shops wantexperienced workers? Someof the matriculants don’thave this and others don’thave money to go and study.How on earth are we goingto get experience when shopowners want experiencethat we don’t have?

. Reading about roadblocks to catch drunkendrivers makes me laugh. Myhusband drives drunk at

least four days of the weekand is never stopped. I onlyhope one day he will becaught! Anon

. My mom paid twice fora name change at Home Af-fairs and has been waitingsince 2006 for her ID docu-ment! Excuses! Incompetentpeople work there. Feel it,it’s here. Zarina

General. Well done VG Behrens.

I loved “The joke’s on you”published on 19 July. Pleasecontinue to entertain uswith your witty retorts! Na-tasha

. It’s time for VG Behrensto go and play in the traffic.Every time I see her name Iimmediately recycle yourpaper. Gogga

. Amen Jeff about yourcomment on KFC. I stoppedbuying there five years ago.Nando’s has nothing to hide,no batter, no skin. It’shealthy and flame grilled.Mmm, I’m on my way for aquarter meal! Sam

. This year we’re going toexperience four unusualdates: 1/1/11, 11/1/11,1/11/11 and 11/11/11. Nowtake the last two digits of theyear you were born, plus theage you will be this year andwhat do you get? 111. Philip
