N
og n inwoner van Parowvallei sukkel
met n kerk wat sy rus versteur.
TygerBurger het onlangs n berig
(Raas-kerk knak droom, TB 2 Maart) ge-
plaas oor n man van dieselfde voorstad wat
sy huis wil verkoop, omdat die gemeente
oorkant die straat sy rus versteur.
Marensia Swanepoel sukkel reeds sedert
2002 met n kerk wat die lewe vir hulle on-
draaglik maak. By die kerk op die hoek van
Frederik- en Markstraat word kerk gehou
dat niemand binne hoorafstand rus kry vir
sy siel nie. Swanepoel het die afgelope veer-
tien jaar alles inhaarvermoprobeer omdie
kerk toe te kry. Ek was al in die hof met
hulle,waar hulle skuld erken en n boete van
R500 betaal het, s Swanepoel.
Oor die jare was sy al by die stadsbeplan-
ningsdepartement en die aktekantore van
die Stad Kaapstad. Ek het ook al verskeie
kere e-posse gestuur aan die afdeling waar
hulle die klanktoetse laat doen. Hulle kon
my ook nie help nie, omdat hulle glo na-ure
sou moet uitkom. Toe ek s ek het video-op-
names van die geraas, s hulle dit kan nie
gebruik word nie want hulle moet self uit-
kom. Wetstoepassing kan ons ook nie help
nie. Die voertuie van die kerkgangers staan
ook die straat vol, sodat ander motors nie
verby kan kom nie, s Swanepoel.
Sy vrees dat sy nooit haar huis verkoop
sal kry nie. Ons het al met Richard OCon-
nel, raadslid van die gebied, kontak gemaak
in die hoop dat hy ons kan help. In die verle-
dewas hy ook doenigmet n ander kerk. Ons
laaste uitweg is nou om prokureurs aan te
stel, maar moet ons geld uithaal omdat an-
der mense nie hul werk doen nie? Ek is reg-
tig moedeloos, s Swanepoel. OConnel kon
nie vir kommentaar bereik word nie, omdat
hy, volgens sy vrou, reeds sewe weke in die
hospitaal is. J.P. Smith, burgemeestersko-
miteelid van gemeenskapsveiligheid, s
hierdie soort probleme sal net deur n voor-
genome gemeenskapshof opgelos kan word.
n Klagte oor geraas word gewoonlik nie
belangrik genoeg geag om vervolg te word
nie. Daar is planne in plek om in Parow n
gemeenskapshof te begin, s hy.

Die Parow-polisie ondersoek n
saak van moord n n lyk Sondag
by die Parow-stasie gevind is.
Volgens kol. Gert Nel, polisie-
woordvoerder, het n treindrywer
onderweg uit Kaapstad iets op die
perron sien l en die trein tot stil-
stand gebring.
By nadere ondersoek het hulle
gesien dit is n man in sy laat der-
tigs of vroe veertigs. Daar was n
steekwond in sy bors, wat tot sy
dood gelei het, s Nel.
In di stadiumword n saak van
moord ondersoek, want dit blyk
dat roof nie die motief was nie.
Ons vermoed die man is n n
argument gesteek, want al sy be-
sittings is by hom gekry. Die man
se naasbestaandes is nog nie in
kennis gestel nie, maar ons kon
reeds vasstel dat hy van Elsiesri-
vier is, s Nel.
Hy het n beroep gedoen op
enigiemand met inligting oor die
voorval, omna vore te komomdie
polisie in hul ondersoek te help.

rown-ups have now taken to accompa-
nying children selling cookies before
sunrise and after sunset in heavy traf-
fic, as reported on by TygerBurger over the
last few weeks.
This comes after various organisations
concerned over the welfare of these chil-
dren voiced their strong disapproval of the
practice whereby the children sell the cook-
ies on behalf of the production arm of their
church, the Ambassadors for Christ World
Outreach Ministries (AFC) in Elsies River.
The children are known to sell at different
spots at busy intersections in Bellville, Par-
ow and Goodwood. At least four of the chil-
dren go to John Ramsay Secondary School.
Falling asleep in class
The principal of this school, Roshin Ram-
awoothar, voiced his concern over reports
from the learners teachers complaining
that the learners fall asleep in class. (TB, 9
March, Cookie kids in danger)
This is a likely consequence of the chil-
dren, who live on the church premises with
the permission of their parents, selling the
cookies before andafter school,well into the
evening. TygerBurger reported on this in
our first article on 24 February headlined
Cookie sale concern. The children inter-
viewed were between 14 and 17 years old.
A roll-on effect was created after our first
article on the plight of the children, when
TygerBurger received a message from He-
witt de Jager, a youth counsellor and chair-
man of Hewlin Compassion, a street chil-
drens forum in Kraaifontein.
I spoke to a 15-year-old girl dressed inher
school uniform (lastWednesday) onmyway
to work, he said. She says that shes will-
ingly volunteering every morning before
going to school and that she doesnt get any-
thing out of it. This sounded very well re-
hearsed to me as if others had inquired
about the situation already, he said.
Not above board
De Jager questioned the legality of the sit-
uation, and forwarded his concerns to the
social welfare arm of the Voortrekker Road
Corridor City Improvement District
(VRCID), with Wilma Piek at its head.
Piek in turn forwarded the VRCIDs and
De Jagers concerns to the City of Cape
Town, stating the following, among other
concerns: It does seem that something is
not above board here and of course, it is to-
tally unacceptable that children should
have to sell cookies at busy intersections to
earn a place to stay.
Theoffice of SuzetteLittle, theCitysMay-
comember for social development and early
childhood development, then escalated the
matter. Her own response was as follows:
The Western Cape Department of Social
Development is responsible for matters re-
lating to child welfare and would be best
placed to investigate and establish the chil-
drens circumstances. We have referred the
matter to the provincial department for in-
vestigation. In terms of the sale of the goods
at intersections, I have liaisedwith our Law
Enforcement department, who will be serv-
ing a compliance notice on the pastor of the
church that the children selling the cookies
are linked to, she said.
On Thursdaymorning last week, a senior
TygerBurger reporter spotted an adult
womanandmanlooking to be in their 30s,
at one of the locations the children sell from
at Plattekloof Road, as well as on Monday.
V Do our readers think this will be the end of the
childrens sales? Let us know at briewe@tygerbur-
ger.co.za.

A group of workers within the Tygerberg
Nature Reserve have come under the spot-
light over complaints of noise in the reserve
while they remove alien plantation.
During our daily social media scouring,
TygerBurger cameacross residentswho live
in the adjoining Loevenstein complaining
about the workers big voices.
One resident is quoted as saying: There
are a lot of people looking for alien plants.
And the women have got nice big voices
which could be used in (conductor Andr)
Rieus choirs. Unfortunately they do not
sing, but they make conversation up and
down the hill facing Mahogany Crescent,
the resident said.
It is amazing how far the voices travel.
Only one question: Is this okay in a nature
reserve? the resident said.
She was referring to regulations in other
reserves where visitors were advised
against using car radios or playing music.
If so, someone has to teach visitors and
contract workers. They might not know.
Some feedbackwasgivenon the residents
post, including that the women are work-
ing, removing alien plants so that the rest
of us can appreciate the nature reserve.
This was from another resident: They
are working outside in relentless sun, but
can still have a cheerful conversation. Rath-
er rejoice in the fact that they are happy to
enjoy doing something that will ultimately
add value to your life and not theirs.
The City was approached for an opinion
on the matter, and area manager Penelope
Glanville gave a succinct one-liner re-
sponse: Alien clearing contract staff are
currently working in a portion of the Tyger-
berg Nature Reserve, clearing the alien
plants. We were not aware that they were
singing or disturbing the residents and will
ask them not to sing.

workers are
too loud

Step Up told to step down
MICHELLE LINNERT
@linnertmb
T
he conflict between the rights of drug
users to clean equipment, and those of
the broader Bellville community to
not be exposed to drug paraphernalia and
open drug use, will not level out soon.
This comes after yet another reader has
asked TygerBurger to investigate the legiti-
macy of drug users openly shooting up and
leaving used needles behind, and the orga-
nisation that supplies this equipment as
part of their harm reduction programme.
Resident Tomislav Milakovic sent Tyger-
Burger pictures of a drug user injecting
himself in broad daylight in the middle of
a residential street. Some of the pictures,
which he obtained from theOakdaleWatch,
also show packs of unused syringes that
were picked up by patrollers, and used syr-
inges that were picked up in various parks
around Oakdale.
How is there any control? Milakovic
asked in an open letter to Step Up, the orga-
nisationbackedby local andprovincial gov-
ernment to service drug users with essen-
tials to ensure harm reduction.
Step Up, you say what you do, will pre-
vent disease. Nonsense. You are handing
out clean needles, yes, but theywill get used
on our doorsteps, streets, parks and church-
es. These needles are now dirty and in fact
increase the potential spread of disease,
Milakovic wrote.
Yes, your intentions are noble, but your
end result is flawed.
You do your charity bit during the day
over here in Bellville then go home to sleep
in your comfortable bed, believing you are
making a better world, whilst myself and
others, here in the trenches, are left with
the task of day and night trying to keep our
streets clean for our children.
You have helped entice more drug users
into Bellville and surrounds, inclusive of
Boston, he said.
Other concerns raised included a lack of
support structure for the users, no place to
sleep or proper ablution facilities.
Put yourselves in our shoes. We are un-
derstaffed and overwhelmed as operating
neighbourhood watches, sinking in the
cesspool you are, in fact, feeding, he said.
Step Up do us all a favour: step down!
Shaun Shelly, advocacy and psycho-so-
cial coordinator at TB/HIV Care Associa-
tion, the parent organisation of Step Up, re-
sponded to Milakovics letter.
Shelly is currently at a United Nations
summit in Vienna. According to a paper re-
leased at the summit, substantial reduc-
tions in new HIV infections were noted
where needle and syringe programmes and
opioid substitution therapy were applied,
showed a reduction in HIV infections.
According to the paper, continuing their
services would contribute towards ending
Aids as a threat to public health by 2030.
In addition, needle and syringe pro-
grammes have repeatedly been shown to
not increase drug use or injecting, to not di-
minish motivation for reducing drug use,
but to assist injecting drug users in access-
ing life-saving medical and other services,
including treatment for substance use dis-
orders, Shelly said.
The consequences of not supplying ster-
ile injecting equipment can result in signifi-
cant harms.
Shelly said by curbing the rapid spread
ofHIV through their programme, theywere
indeed protecting the broader communi-
ty.
I cannot consider suggestions of quar-
antining people as thiswould be a violation
of numerous laws and basic human rights.
Statements on the aggressive nature of the
drug users and morality demonstrate a
significant misconception of drug use and
the challenges that face drug users.
He added that the accusation of having
attracted drug users is absolutely unfound-
ed, citing that a rigorous scientific proc-
ess was followed to identify areas where in-
jecting drug users were already present,
and while the number of drug users may be
increasing, this is due to multiple and com-
plex factors unrelated to the provision of
our services.
Shelly said no cases of HIV infection have
ever been reported from needle-stick inju-
ries from disposed needles.
He added they were already doing twice-
weekly clean-ups, calling for the public to
email them the locations where discarded
needles are found and having consultations
with local civic and law enforcement agen-
cies to help identify such locations.
They were also encouraging users to dis-
pose of injecting equipment responsibly.
V Contact [email protected] to report loca-
tions where used drug-use equipment is found.

Radio hams brave air, seawaves
ESM ERASMUS
@erasmusesme
A
bout 150 000 radio hams across the
world have been waiting for the day to
tick off Heard Island in the Southern
Indian Ocean about 4 000 kilometres south
west ofwesternAustralia in their logbooks
of entities they contacted via radio. The ra-
dio hams call this a DXpedition.
Now, 20 years after the previous DXpedi-
tion in 1996, another DXpedition departed
from Table Bay harbour on 10 March for a
rough trip on a vessel, aptly named Brave-
heart, to the remote and uninhabited Heard
island.
In Durbanville, an excited 87-year-old Den-
nis Wells will keep a close eye on the DXpedi-
tion from his shack at his home in The Pad-
docks. Even thoughhe ticked off Heard Island
more than 30 years ago (on 20 October 1985
when an Australian national Antarctic re-
search expedition team visited the island), he
shares the excitement of the other radio
hams.
Wind, snow, rain ... and a volcano
DXpeditions are undertaken to remote des-
tinations to help radio hams all around the
world to be able to make contact.
It is also 20 years since any man put foot
onHeard Island, known for its adverse con-
ditions of wind, snow and rain. It also has
an active volcano.
The Braveheart, which is chartered by
radio amateurs, was expected to arrive yes-
terday (Tuesday 22March) and, since there
is no jetty, all equipment would have to be
taken on land by rubber ducks.
ThisDXpedition,which is calledVKEK
and costs aboutR7million, is led byDrRob-
ert Schmieder from the USA, the same
team leader of the previous DXpedition in
1996.
Schmieder, a world authority on Heard
Island and many other islands around the
world, is the author of many books on the
subject.
Wells is part of the SouthAfrican support
team, which is led by Paul Johnson from
Green Point.
Several radio amateurs will qualify for
Honour Roll and #1Honour Roll when they
manage tomake contactwithHeard Island.
Wells, a legend in the radio amateur
world and well-known by his call ZS1AU,
has earned the very prestigious DXCC Top
of Honour Roll plaque in 2014 the highest
obtainable in amateur radio, and placing
him at number one in the world of DX. It
can take anything from 20 years to a life-
time to achieve this.
Wells was invited to accompany the
Braveheart on a yacht out of Table Bayhar-
bour. Oh, it takes so long to say goodbye
to a ship and the Braveheart was no excep-
tion. The trip on the yacht to accompany
Braveheart on its way was fantastic. When
we were near Robben Island, we called
Braveheart on our radio and the ship came
to a stop. We took some magnificent photos
with Table Mountain in the background.
Braveheart crew to stay for three weeks
Once again I felt proud of our city as it
was the most beautiful sight with the table
cloth coming over the top, Wells said.
As the ship tracked its way across the
stormy southern Indian Ocean from Cape
Town to Heard Island, the participants and
the crew of Braveheart launched a string of
oceanographic buoys in support of climate
research by three of the worlds leading sci-
entific organisations, the Woods Hole
Oceanographic Institute (WHOI), the Na-
tional Oceanographic and Atmospheric Ad-
ministration (NOAA) and the Scripps Insti-
tute of Oceanography.
In addition to the Argo buoys, they also
launched a group of global drifting buoys
in behalf of NOAA and possibly the South
African Weather Service.
The 1250 satellite tracked driftersworld-
wide remain on the surface during their ap-
proximately four-year lifespan, continuous-
ly reporting on their location as well as cur-
rents, sea surface temperature, atmospheric
pressure, winds and salinity.
This VKEK DXpedition, comprising of
14 amateur radio operators and scientists,
will remain on Heard Island for three weeks
doing other scientific work, as well as ama-
teur radio.
They plan to reach parts of the island by
flying a drone with an HD camera and will
be the first to land on and take off from wa-
ter. The photos will be relayed to the ground
station, as well as via satellite.
V Visit the website http://vk0ek.org/ for an ongoing
report of the DXpedition for the next three weeks.
Here with Dennis Wells (front right) are (in front left) Dirk Lotz from Bloubergstrand and (back

he police cannot always immediately
respond to each and every complaint
they receive.
This is themessage from Lieutenant Kev-
inWilliams, police spokesperson of the Par-
ow Police Station.
According to Williams they are constant-
ly criticised for not reacting fast enough.
We do the best we can with limited re-
sources, so it is important the residents
know how we react to a complaint, says
Williams.
According to Williams reaction time is
the amount of time it takes to respond to a
particular complaint. The time is calculat-
ed from themoment the complaint has been
received and the time it takes to attend that
specific complaint. Every complaint that is
received at the police station is treated as
important and will be attended to. The po-
lice have a system categorising complaints
between alfa and bravo complaints.
Alfa complaints are themost serious and
may demand immediate response to ensure
the protection of life and property. Com-
plaints pertaining to rape, house robberies,
carjacking, truck hijacking and cash-in-
transit robberies demand immediate re-
sponse to ensure that life be preserved and
property is safe guarded, says Williams.
All bravo complaints, although impor-
tant to the police, are not life threatening
and may not warrant immediate response
when a serious complaint calls for swift po-
lice action. We desire to attend to all com-
plaints of any person irrespective the na-
ture of that particular complaint.

he vigilance of employees of a security
company led to the arrest of three sus-
pects suspected of belonging to a
break-in syndicate operating in the north-
ern suburbs.
The security officers noticed a suspicious
white Volkswagen Golf at a security com-
plex inTableView.When they investigated,
a chase ensued after the car fled the scene.
According to Warrant Officer Jacques
Mostert, the vehicle was chased to Bothasig
whileDurbanville police assistedbyclosing
off the escape route towards them.
They were finally cornered in
the Atlas Park industrial area
and three suspects in their thir-
ties from Khayelitsha, Nyanga
and Gugulethu were arrested
when various items were found
inside the vehicle, says Mostert.
The items included two flat
screen televisions, a fan and vari-
ous expensive shoes, clothing and
toiletries. A complainant from
West Beach Table View has been
located after an intensive investi-
gation and has identified some of
the property, including the one
flat screen television which has
been taken during a burglary.
Three crowbars were also found
inside the vehicle, says Mostert.
The police thought the investi-
gation was done and dusted until
they had a closer look at the num-
ber plates.
They found that the number
plates were covered by fake ones.
Further investigation was
done and found that the false
number plates were used on a
Constable Zukisa Mantewu with some of the property
found inside the VW Golf.
Crowbar thieves
caught in car chase
Mercedes-Benz which was involved in a
house robbery in Bellville. The vehicle has
also been noticed on other crime scenes in
Brackenfell and Kirstenhof.
All three suspects were charged and will
appear in court. One of the suspects iswant-
ed on two cases of housebreak-in in Bothas-
ig and a case of theft in Fish Hoek, accord-
ing to Mostert.
Bothasig station commander Lieutenant
Patrick Jacobs commended the two arrest-
ing officers, Constables Andrew Simmers
and Zukisa Mantewu, on their good work,
but also thanked all the security companies
andmembers of other stationswhowere in-
volved in the successful apprehension.

he Omuramba MyCiTi station was
converted into a delivery room when
staff rallied to assist a mom in labour.
According to a statement by the City of
Cape Town, it was just after 13:00 on Mon-
day 14Marchwhen XolaniStofile, aMyCiTi
station manager with first-aid experience,
was visiting personnel at the Omuramba
station.
He noticed the pregnant woman waiting
at the door to the ladies bathroom, which
was occupied at that stage. She seemed to
be in pain and then her water broke unex-
pectedly.
Xolani step-ped up like a professional
mid-husband, removing her stockings just
in time and making her comfortable as she
was giving birth to a beautiful and healthy
baby boy, says Mayco member for trans-
port, Brett Herron.
As the dramatic scene unfolded, MyCiTi
personnel evacuated the front endof the sta-
tion to give the mother and child some pri-
vacy.
Luckily the station was not busy at the
time.
The personnel sent for an ambulance
who took the 31-year-old mother and new-
born child to the Somerset Hospital. The fa-
ther told us that he was extremely grateful
to Xolani and all of those who assisted his
wife and boy, who they have named Gilbert
Gabriel.
Gilbert and his mother have been dis-
charged from hospital and are now back at
home in Joe Slovo.
We are extremely proud of Xolani who
stepped up and assisted the mother during
this difficult time. Hemay want to consider
a career as a professional mid-husband.

A new community photo exhibition called
7535 (the Bellville postal code) will be open-
ing at the Bellville Library soon.
The exhibition will curate and celebrate
the existing stories at play within the Bell-
ville region. It features 12 local artists, with
each one having captured their daily prac-
tices with a disposable camera.
While the camera might be disposable,
the underlying stories in Bellville spaces
are most certainly not, as the exhibition
shows.
The outcome of this creative venture re-
veals spaces, faces andpracticeswhichhave
become so interwoven into Bellville culture
that they are almost second nature.
However, the pause for reflection quickly
brings these elements to life, reminding res-
idents that they are the very things that
make this city the Bellville and home to
many that it is.
The exhibition opens on Wednesday 30
March and runs until Saturday 2 April at
the Art.b gallery at the library.

mation.

when Sassa switched to the

an official requested my mom

So my mom were asked to sign

I alerted the official about

hom verskil.
In Bellville is hulle besig om
verkeerskaartjies uit te skryf
vir motors geparkeer op die
geelstreep in Boston in Fair-
way- en Solwaystraat.
Daar is n ernstige tekort aan
parkeerplek in die omgewing
van die Louis Leipoldt-hospi-
taal. Dit word veroorsaak
deurdat die hospitaal nie
voldoende parkering het vir
hul werkers en besoekers aan
die mediese sentrum, sowel as
aan pasinte nie.
Die verkeersmanne skryf
links en regs parkeerkaartjies
uit teen n boete van R500,
maar dan parkeer hulle hul
motors voor sake-onderne-
mings, waar daar n kennisge-
wing is dat motors weggesleep
sal word n hulle parkeer ook

Die Groot K
gebeur nie nt
met ander nie
Ons was op pad kerk toe toe ek die eerste
keer van die Groot K gehoor het. Oom
Koster het tongkanker gehad.
My ma het saggies vir my pa vertel dat
hulle n deel van sy tong sal moet uitsny.
Maar dit was nie sag genoeg vir die
oortjies van n nuuskierige sewejarige
nie. Oom Koster was in beheer van die
kerkklok en ek was vas oortuig hy slaap
in die kerktoring, want hy was altyd net
dr. Hyt ons geskel as ons voete gesleep
het Sondagskoolklas toe.
Ekt gewonder hoe hy gaan skel sonder
n tong. Want oom Koster gaan gesond
word en terugkom die hele gemeente
het immers vir hom gebid.
Kanker was destyds soos n tienerswan-
gerskap of egskeiding. Niemand het
daaroor gepraat of geskinder nie. Gewon-
der dalk, maar nie geprt nie.
Ons het oom Koster nooit weer gesien
nie.
Twintig jaar later was dit my pa se
beurt om die
Groot K in die o
te staar.
Die dag toe hy
nie meer sy
Sudoku-raaisel kon
invul nie, was die
dag dat ek geweet
het dis tyd om
vrede te maak en
koebaai te s.
Wr het die
kerk en my ma-hul-
le gebid dat die
Liewe Vader hom
moet spaar. Ekt
gebid dat hy nie
vir jare moet ly nie en dat hy sonder pyn
moet sterf.
Van die familie het my uitgekryt as n
ongelowige. Dis asof hulle gedink het my
ongeloof mag dalk net maak dat hulle
gebede nie voldoende trefkrag gaan h
nie. Ek moes sm bid vir genesing.
Maar ek kon nie. Want eks n realis en
n mens kan nie teen die feite stry nie.
God se plan is nie noodwendig ons plan
nie. Sy antwoord is nie noodwendig die
antwoord wat ons wil hoor nie.
Die skuldgevoel oor my ongeloof het
my opgevreet ... net di wat in n Calvi-
nistiese huis grootgeword het, sal regtig
verstaan. Die sielkundige het ges ekt
vroer as die res van die familie begin
rou oor my pa. Toe die res nog geglo het
hy gaan weer opstaan, het ek sy studeer-
kamer begin oppak.
Dis hoekom ek die sterk een was n sy
dood. My broers en my ma was gebroke.
Wat die sielkundige ook ges het, is dat
n mens nooit die waarde van hoop moet
onderskat nie. Want solank daar hoop is,
het mense n rede om aan te gaan.
Kanker is nie meer n siekte wat net
met ander mense gebeur nie. Dis op
ons drumpel en meeste van ons het al
iemand na aan ons afgestaan aan di
ongenaakbare siekte.
Ek weet daar is verhale van hoop, van
mense wat kanker oorwin het. Dit bied n
mate van troos.
Al wat n mens kan hoop, is dat
daardie beker by jou verby sal gaan.

waarsku om nie op die geel-
streep te parkeer nie, al moet jy
van jou huis af stap!
Tweedens wil ek aanbeveel
dat besoekers aan die hospitaal
druk uitoefen op die hospitaal
om meer parkeerplekke te bou.
Daar is n paar jaar gelede
miljoene rande se verbeteringe
aangebring, soms ten koste van
pasinte. Maar die gebrek aan
parkeerplek is steeds nie
aangespreek nie.
Derdens wil ek graag weet
wat word van die geld wat so
gen word van motoriste (soms
ouer mense) wat geen ander
keuse het as om so te parkeer
nie.
Laastens wens ek daar was
meer spietkops op motorfietse
soos in die verlede. Die taxis
stop en ry en kruis witstrepe
net waar en hoe hulle wil en
motoriste gee maar toe, want jy
wil nie in n ongeluk betrokke
raak nie veral nie met n taxi
nie en veral as daar nie n
beampte in sig is nie. Nee, hulle
kies die maklike weg om eerder
verkeerskaartjies uit te skryf.
So, mense, wees gewaarsku:
hou jou R500 liewers in jou sak
en moenie die beamptes die
genoegdoening gee om n pienke
uit te skryf nie.

embrace and assist these
students?
These children are prepared
to sacrifice just for one (may be
the only one) cooked meal.
It is about survival taking
cognisance of the other partys
exploitation. Have we taken a
step to ask them why they do
it, and cant they be assisted in
any manner?
We have criminalised some-
thing good, before it has even
turned bad. We are teaching
this generation also to depend
on the State, and not take
charge of their own lives.
I would propose that the
schools create an enabling
environment for these learners,
for example:
. During interval these
students have a table where
they can sell their produce (put
systems in place).
. The business teacher teach
and create the platform for the
children to diversify in their
produce, add value, and keep-
ing records that get checked.
This brings along a sense of
responsibility.
. Consider incentives to
these students if your school-
work is up to standard for a
quarter, you can continue
selling the next quarter.
As teachers, we are not only
the caretakers of those students
when they are at school, but we
are also privileged to help them
acquire a better future than we
had.
Let us rather take hands,
help each other become better,
and create a better South
Africa.

M
eer as n miljoen Suid-Afrikaners
tussen die ouderdomme van 20 en
50 word geraak deur volwasse aan-
daggebrek-hiperaktiwiteitsversteuring
(ADHD).
Dt is onthul in navorsing deur dr. Rena-
ta Schoeman, n psigiater en die top-MBA-
student vir 2015 aan die Universiteit Stel-
lenbosch Bestuurskool (USB). Vir haar
MBA-tesis het Schoeman die huidige situa-
sie in Suid-Afrika ontleed deur spesifiek te
fokus opdie psigiatriese bestuur enbefond-
sing van behandeling vir volwassenes met
ADHD in die privaat sektor.
Schoeman s: Die erkenning van vol-
wasse ADHD as n chroniese siekte wat be-
handeling benodig, is krities. Tog het vol-
wassenes met
ADHDbeperkte
toegang tot be-
handeling, selfs
diegene in die
privaat gesond-
heidsorgstelsel.
Dis omdat
mediese ske-
mas wat ADHD
by kinders dek,
dikwels nie
voordele of be-
handeling vir
volwassenes
voorsien nie.
Schoeman s
pasinte sukkel
om privaat be-
handeling bo en
behalwe die koste vanhulmaandelikseme-
diese bydraes by te bring, en juis daarom
bly die siekte dikwels onbehandeld.
Dis n duur, kroniese siekte met aan-
sienlike impak op die lewensgehalte van
pasinte en hul families. Die koste direk,
indirek en ontasbaar is aansienlik, met
die aangepaste lewensjare vir gestremd-
heid bereken op 424 uit 100 000, wat n aan-
sienlike afname in werkverrigting is.
Schoeman se MBA-studie het die gebrek
aan kennis en finansile ondersteuning vir
ADHD gedentifiseer as die vernaamste
struikelblokke ombehandeling vir en diag-
nose van die siekte te verkry. Sy stel n nu-
we befondsingsmodel vir privaat gesond-
heidsorg as n moontlike oplossing voor.
Volwassenes met ADHD ervaar steeds
skeptisisme van diegene rondom hulle wat
aangevuurworddeurvolgehoue enoninge-
ligte mediagedrewe persepsies dat ADHD
nie n regte siektemet regte gevolge en kos-
te is nie, s Schoeman. Sy s omdat so baie
volwassenes met ADHD vir die grootste
deel vanhul lewe sonderbehandelinggaan,
kan dit lei tot n aansienlike toename in die
risiko vir ander psigiatriese toestande soos
angs en gemoedsversteuring, asook
dwelmmisbruik. In die werkplek kan hul
swak tydsbestuur endoelwitstelling n aan-
sienlike impak op hul werknemers h.
ADHD word gekenmerk deur kwaai en
beperkende vlakke van onoplettendheid,
hiperaktiwiteit en impulsiwiteit.
As n sogenaamde ontwikkelingsiekte
word simptome reeds in die kinderjare dui-
delik. Hoewel sommige kinders hul ADHD
skynbaar ontgroei, is dit meer n geval dat
sommige meer bedrewe word met die be-
stuur van die simptome en dan eendag as
volwassenes vergoed vir hul ADHD-ver-
wante gebreke deur leefstyl- en loopbaan-
keuses. Volgens Schoeman word volwasse-
nes wat aan ADHD ly dikwels deur hul tyd-
genote en familielede beskouword as goeie
beginners, maar swak voltooiers, swak
luisteraars, swak organiseerders, aandag-
afleibaar, vergeet- agtig, ongeduldig en
mense wat nie konsekwent is nie.
Mense met ADHD is dikwels hoogs in-
telligent en baie kreatief met n laterale en
analitiese denkwyse, maar dikwels leef
hulle tog n lewe van onderprestasie en vol-
gehoue mislukking op akademiese gebied
en in die werkplek, met interpersoonlike
konflik, huweliksprobleme en finansile
moeilikheid, s sy. Haar voorstel vir n be-
fondsingsmodel wat vertroulik ontwikkel
is vir die privaat mediese skema betrokke
in haar navorsing sal grootliks bydra tot
begrip vir die langtermynbehoeftes en die
verbetering van toegang tot diagnose enbe-
handeling vir volwassenes met ADHD.

DESIRE RORKE
@dezzierorke
M
inhet ekverwagdatmyeiehemelse
engele so baie te s sou h toe ek
verlede week die foon optel ommet
een van Suid-Afrika se voorste spirituele
mediums te gesels oor haar beplande toer
na Kaapstad.
Shannon Walbran help mense deur per-
soonlike boodskappe van hul engele te in-
terpreteer en oor te dra. Vir n verandering
moes ek stilbly, ophou vrae vra en net luis-
ter ... myself ast ware oopstel en bietjie
kwesbaar maak. In my geval, s Shannon,
kommunikeer engele beslis met my deur
die geskrewe woord.
Dis een van die redes hoekom jy joerna-
lis geword het. Woorde of sinne wat jy lees
sal uitspring en jou aanraak, en kalmte
bring. Dit sal jou lank bybly en inspireer.
Dis nie toevallig nie. As dit gebeur skryf
dit neer, hou dagboek daarvan, plak dit op
joumuur en dink daaroor, want daar l jou
boodskappe, s sy.
Ek is half uit die veld geslaan.
Dit iswel n logiese slotsomdat n joerna-
lis n voorliefde vir die geskrewe woord
het, ja. Maar wat Shannon nie geweet het
nie, is dat elke denkbare gaatjie teen my
kantoormuur reeds toegeplak is onder die
papiertjies met woorde, sinne en gedigte
wat gereeld uitspring na my en gereeld
stof tot nadenke bied.
Toevallig? Miskien, miskien nie. My en-
gele het egter nie daar opgehou nie, en ter-
wyl ek aanhoudend inligting uit haar pro-
beer kry vir my artikel, hou hulle aan
praat.
Shannon smy boodskappe komhard en
duidelik deur, soveel so dat sy skoon fisie-
ke simptome begin voel het. Hartpalpita-
sies en n bewende hand wat dui op angs-
aanvalle en moontlike hartprobleme.
Nie n onmoontlikheid nie, aangesien
my pa op die ouderdom van 45 sy eerste
hartaanval gekry het. Ek is nou 43, en dis
n vrees wat al jare lank by my spook. Kan
sy my vrese oor die foon aanvoel?
Boonop ly ek ook al dekades lank aan n
sekere angstoestand. Jy moet dit stadig
vat, begin asemhaal, fiks word en die stres-
en angssnellers in jou lewe so goumoontlik
en dringend aanspreek, s sy en voeg by
dat daar gevolge is vir diegene wat nie na
di boodskappe luister nie.
My engele is so spesifiek dat hulle my
selfs aanraai om karateklasse te begin
neem.
Ek wonder of dit nie n
slim hemelse plan is om
my tedwingomvanmyon-
derdrukte, dog gekoester-
de toorn, ontslae te raak
nie?
Wees stil en weet dat ek
God is, dra sy dadelik nog
n boodskap oor.
God probeer vir jou s
dat jy nie in beheer is nie.
Jy probeer alles self doen.
Vra My vir hulp as jy dit
nodig het, s God vir jou.
Sit My aan die stuur van
jou lewe.
Sjoe.
Teen di tyd het ek die
trant van my artikel ge-
heel en al verloor, en stil-
weg gewonder wat ek nou
eintlik gaan skryf as di
onderhoud verby is.
Shannon s die bood-
skappe wat engele oordra,
is meestal lewensverande-
rend.
Dis geensins lukraak
nie, maar baie spesifiek
met die doel om positiewe
verandering mee te
bring, s sy.
Daarom moedig sy haar
klinte en seminaargan-
gers aan om spesifieke
vrae te vra oor kwessies in
hul lewens.
Jy sal verbaas wees oor
hoe spesifiek jou engele
jou sal antwoord.
Engele bestaan beslis, s
sy. Ek glo in God die Va-
der en natuurlik wil Hy met ons praat. En-
gele is ast ware sy boodskappers, of God
inmenslike vorm, al kan ons hulle nie sien
nie.
Sy verduidelik dit as volg. As God by-
voorbeeld vergelyk kan word aan die Koe-
berg-kragstasie, sou die engele die infra-
struktuur wees wat die energie aan die
eindverbruiker lewer.
In my eie lewe het hulle my al baie ge-
help en groot veranderinge teweeggebring.
Ek moes net luister, s sy.
Volgens Shannon kommunikeer engele
op verskeie maniere.
Daar is baie tekens om voor uit te kyk,
soos byvoorbeeld die weer, ligte wat in jou
huis flikker en selfs diere.
Tydens haar seminaar, spesiaal net vir
vroue, in Kaapstad op Saterdag 16 April,
sal sy juis uitbrei oor tegniekewat gebruik
kan word om met jou eie engele kontak te
maak.
Seminaargangers sal ookdie geleentheid
h om vrae te stel oor hul lewens.
Shannon is landwyd bekend vir haar ak-
kurate antwoorde tydens onderhoude op
verskeie radiostasies soos Metro FM en
702/Cape Talk, s haar woordvoerder, Me-
lissa Conradie.
Sy het grootgeword in n Rooms-Katolie-
ke huishouding en het later
jare haar geloof versterk
deur verdere studies in Ju-
dasme, Boeddhisme en
Shamanisme. Sy het tydens
haar 20s en 30s meer as 40
lande besoek en tydens 2003
die roeping gekry om ander
te help met di gawe.
Sy het sedert 2003 al
meer as 20 000 mense gehelp
en is ook die skrywer van
die boek Guided! wat jou
leer hoe om met jou engele
te kommunikeer, s Conra-
die.
Geloof in die bonatuurli-
ke en geloofsoortuiging is
myns insiens n persoonlike
saak, maar het Shannonmy
gehelp? Beslis, ja.
Of di boodskappe nou di-
rek van my engele af gekom
het, sou ek nie kon s nie,
maar een ding is seker: alles
wat sy vir my ges het, het
ek lankal reeds in my bin-
neste vermoed of selfs ge-
weet.
Is wat sy doen dus net n
geval van slim sielkunde
waardeurmy gedagtes bloot
gelees word, of was dit
waarlik n geestelike onder-
vinding?
Die woorde van Jesus
kom bymy op: Die konink-
ryk van God is binne-in jul-
le. Maar so ook die miste-
rieuse teorie van die psigia-
ter Carl Jung toe hy ges het
God is die werklikheid
self.
Jung meen dat ons slegs deur die psige
kan bewys dat God teenoor ons optree,
maar dat ons nie in staat is om te onderskei
of hierdie optrede spruit uit God of uit die
onbewuste nie.
Hoe dit ookal sy, my gesprek met Shan-
non het geen kwaad teweeggebring nie, net
die vooruitsig op n gesonder, fikser en kal-
mer ek. En die hoop beskaam nie.
Die sessie in Kaapstad is slegs vir vroue
en sal by die V&AWaterfront gehou word.
Kaartjies kos R500 en is beskikbaar op
Quicket.

The Metro Evangelical Services (MES) in
Bellville has had quite a number of mile-
stones during the past year.
So says MES manager, Ilse Els, of the 715
intake assessments theyve done, the 9168
job rehabilitation opportunities benefiting
417 clients in their God Restores Our World
(Grow) programme and the 304 clients who
attended their workshops.
Ilse says added to this, they had 23 clients
who completed
their foreman
training in the
Grow pro-
gramme, 47 cli-
ents who were
assisted with
job placement,
48 families that
were reunited
and 10 families
where re-inte-
gration was
successful.
They also had
17 clients who
used their ac-
commodation
programme.
With March being World Nutrition
Month, we celebrate 8950 meals that were
served at the MES canteen, of which 4464
were paid for by meal vouchers.
This means our local communities are
steadily buying into the strategy to give re-
sponsibly, she adds.
Because of the programme labelled

Runners to honour slaves
EARL HAUPT
@earlhaupt
T
his years Slave Route Chal-
lenge on Sunday 8 May will see
participants run the usual scenic
route through the city while also
giving honour to individual slaves
of the Capes past.
Each runner will carry one of
the 8 000 names of slaves who ap-
pear on a column of memory at
the Iziko Slave Lodge in the city
centre.
This was announced at the
launch of this years edition of the
race at the museum last week.
Farouk Meyer of Itheko Sport
Athletic Club and organiser for
the Slave Route Challenge ex-
plains runners will have a specific
purpose and a special honour in
this years race, referring to the
column ofmemory onwhich the
names of 8 000 men, women and
children are inscribed.
This year, every person who
registers will run on behalf of one
of these names on the column, al-
lowing each runner to honour a
specific personwhowas an impor-
tant part of our countrys past.
More than a race
Organisers say the Slave Route
Challenge ismore than just a race:
it is a tribute to the trials of dispos-
sessed people who contributed to
the early development of Cape
Town and, as a result, South Afri-
ca.
The race route takes runners
past several historically signifi-
cant landmarks, such as theCastle ofGood
Hope, Grand Parade, the Whipping Post,
Old Slave Church, the Iziko Slave Lodge
and the Slave Tree Plaque.
Today the Iziko Slave Lodge is a site of
memory a place of reconciliation and
hope. The Slave Route Challenge
provides the runners the opportu-
nity to actively engage with this
history and beyond the race to ex-
plore, discover, reflect and recon-
nect with their roots, says Paul
Tichmann, curator of the Iziko
Slave Lodge.
Meyer says this years race aims
to honour individuals and cele-
brate the collective history and di-
versity of both the race entrants
and the people they are remember-
ing.
This takes the race to a whole
new level, and personalises it for
each runner, while at the same
time instilling a sense of unity and
meaning something so critical at
this point in time for our country,
says Meyer.
5km to half marathon
The event is presented by Itheko
Sport Athletic Club under the aus-
pices of Western Province Athlet-
ics. While there is a minor change
in the title and logo of the race this
year, it still forms part of Metro-
politan Lifes mojo series which
celebrates the community, and
Metropolitan Life remains the
main sponsor.
Since the inaugural race in 2011,
the annual Slave Route Challenge
has consisted of a half marathon
and a 10km run, as well as a 5km
fun run and walk, and a 10km big
walk for those who prefer a more
leisurely pace. The half marathon
is scheduled to kick things off at
the startingpoint inDarlingStreet
at 07:00, followed by the 10km run
at 07:15, the 5km fun run and walk at 07:30
and the 10km big walk at 07:45.

W
orcester se wyn-en-olyfroete is
soos n stowwerige ou hoededoos,
vergete bo-op n hangkas.
Dit inspireer nie groot nuuskierigheid
nie, maar met die oopmaakslag word jy
sommer heeltemal besiel met die fraai, ou-
tentieke en selfs kleurvolle hoed daar bin-
ne. Dis nie getooi met baie frille en valle
nie, maar elke knopie is liefdevol en sorg-
vuldig met die hand aangewerk.
TygerBurger het di spreekwoordelike
ou hoed onlangs van nader bekykmet n
nuwe toer van die streek.
Di nuwe toerpakket is so saamgestel
dat die hoogtepunte van die roete saam in
n neutedop aangebied word, verduidelik
Nelene Marais, woordvoerder by Worce-
ster se wyn-en-olyfroete.
Die beginpunt is n safari by die Fairy
Glen-wildreservaat aan die voetheuwels
net buite Worcester.
Hierword dieGrootVyf gehuisves en be-
soekers kry die geleentheid om di Afrika-
reuse van enkele meters af te besigtig.
Dis die naaste wat jy ooit aan n olifant
of buffel gaan kom, het ons safarigids ge-
spot, maar geensins oordryf nie.
In die bestek van een uur het ons vier
van die Groot Vyf-wildsoorte van baie na-
by te siene gekry.
Met n heerlike sjampanje-ontbyt in die
grasdakrestaurant, met sy reuk van hout
en teer so uniek aan wildreservate in die
noorde van die land, kon n mens jou mak-
lik verbeel dat jy iewers in die Kruger-
wildtuin sit. Die volgende stop was die
Overhex-wynkelder se bistro, waar die sjef
vir ons n pikante voorgereg voorberei het
om saam met n uitgesoekte witwyn te ge-
niet.
Di reeks wyne is vernoem na Survivor,
dieNguni-koei,wat in 2007 van n trokafge-
spring het langs n plaas in die Swartland
vanwaar Overhex hul druiwe vandaan
kry. Sy het in die middel van die cabernet
sauvignon-wingerd beland, wonderbaar-
lik oorleef en het vandag al vyf keer gekalf,
met nommer ses op pad.Nes die koei Survi-
vor, vertel die smaaklike wyne n opwin-
dende storie.

land, het gaste hier vermaakmet n ensem-
ble gewildeklassieke liedere, voor onskok,
Roselene Koopman, se watertand bees-
stertbredie- en boerpampoendis geniet het.
Roselene woon en werk al dekades lank
op die landgoed en is so geliefd dat daar al
selfs n ros-wyn na haar vernoem is
Sweet Roselene.Dis min dat n mens jou
mes en vurk sommer so laat vaar om met
vingers en al in die tradisionele kos in te
klim, skerts Marais. Die smaaklike hoof-
maal is natuurlik genietmetwynewat per-
soonlike deur C.P. Conradie uitgekies is.
C.P. is onlangs aangewys as hierdie
streek se wynmaker van die jaar.
Die gastehuis met sy historiese geboue
en rustige atmosfeer is so betowerend dat
jy moeilik afskeid neem, maar as jy jouself
uiteindelikwegskeur, vat jy weer dieNuy-

vir nagereg.Nuy-wynkelder het dit goed
gedink om hier n restaurant te bou, wat

Vir nagereg het ons hier n unieke sjoko-
lade-, wyn- en musiekparing geniet.

Die Universiteit Stellenbosch is op soek na mense met
sosiale angssteuring (SAS), of diegene daarsonder, om
deel te neem aan n breinskanderingsnavorsingspro-
jek.
Die navorsing behels dat spesifieke netwerkte in die
brein betrokke is by die manier waarop sosiale situa-
sies verstaan word, soos die identifisering van ander
mense se emosies terwyl jy by n partytjie met hulle
praat. Daar word vermoed dat hierdie sosiale net-
werk anders is in mense met SAS in vergelyking met
mense sonder SAS. Die doel van die navorsing is om
te kykwatter effek behandeling vanSASopdi netwerk
het. Die deelnemers gebruik medikasie wat reeds goed-
gekeur is vir gebruik in sosiale angs, maar word dan
ook onderwerp aan neurosielkundige toetsing en MRI-
en PET-skanderings.
Om as proefkonyn te kwalifiseer, moet mense aan
verskillende kriteria voldoen.
V Mense wat belangstel om as vrywilligers deel te
neem, kan prof. Christine Lochner by 021 938 9179 bel.
