SASOLBURG. – ‘n Massiewe ‘petrol’-fon-tein het verlede Donderdag sy verskyninglangs die R59, sowat 5 kilometer buite Sasol-burg, in die rigting van Parys gemaak.Die petrol het tientalle meter ver vanuit

die veld oor die R59 gespuit.

‘n Plaasvoertuig wat in die lande besigwas, het per ongeluk die pyp beskadig endie ‘fontein’ het met mening by die gat beginuitspuit.Die Metsimaholo Brandweer en Sasol

Hazmat-eenheid was dadelik op die toneelen die toevoer na die pyp is afgesny. Duisen-

de liters petrol het egter nog vir meer as ‘nhalfuur by die pyp uitgeborrel.Dit het ‘n groot gevaar ingehou, omdat die

petrolwalms in die gebied gehang het. Neteen vonk of vlammetjie kon dus ‘n massieweontploffing veroorsaak.Metsimaholo en Sasol nooddiensperso-

neel en die verkeersdepartement het die padin beide rigtings versper en sodoende verse-ker dat padgebruikers nie in gevaar was ter-wyl opruimingswerk aan die gang was nie.Dit is blykbaar die eiendom van Transnetwat petrol namens ‘n plaaslike maatskappyherlei.

VEREENIGING. - Local surgeon Dr Hen-nie Strydom pleads with the community tohelp the Steyn family in any way they can.Strydom says that ever since Sarel Steyn

(35) of Vereeniging was injured in the lineof duty onOctober 11 of 2011, life has beentough for him, as well as his wife and theirthree children. An explosion left Sarelblind and his face needed 50 hours of re-constructive surgery.Most of the surgery had to be free of

charge as Sarel never received any com-pensation from the company he workedfor. He is currently unemployed.Strydom says that he, Medicross dental

technician Dr Ernst Siebries and another

dental technician - André Schutte of Beno-ni - are currently trying to reconstruct Sa-rel’s jaws and teeth with the assistance ofBicon SA. “This entire experience hasbeen very difficult for me and my family.We lost everything.We are currently livingwith my parents and we are still strugglingto get compensation formy husband’s inju-ry,” says Marieke, Sarel’s wife. “My lifewill never be the same. I survive by takingit day by day. I owe my life to Dr Strydomand his wife Letitia who have been verysupportive and helpful to me and my fami-ly,” says Sarel.Anyone who can offer the Steyn family

any kind of help can call 071 649 6177or 083 489 8089.

Mutilation wrecksSarel’s (35) life

Sarel Steyn (35) of Vereeniging was injured in a horrific work accident in 2011. Hehas undergone several surgeries and is blind.

VANDERBIJLPARK. - After months of ru-mour and speculation that the Vanderbijlparkworks of ArcelorMittal SouthAfrica (AMSA)might close, the steel giant last week officiallyannounced that the continued existence of theworks indeed hangs in the balance.Paul O’ Flaherty, executive director of AM-

SA, last week revealed to Media24 specialistbusiness reporter Jan de Lange that the futureof the Vanderbijlpark works has to be reconsi-dered if long-term solutions to the group’sproblems cannot be foundwithin ninemonths.De Lange made it known on Sunday

through Rapport that AMSA might exercisethe option to close the Vanderbijlpark worksin an effort to improve the group’s chancesof survival in South Africa. The biggest thre-ats to AMSA at present are steel imports fromChina, arbitration tribunal disputes, the go-vernment’s demand for a so-called ‘develop-ment price’ for steel, ageing technology at the

Vanderbijlpark works and the contemplatedCarbon Tax.For the past four years, AMSA has run at

a continuous loss.“This is simply not sustainable,”O’ Flaher-

ty told De Lange.Moreover, the Industrial Development Cor-

poration (IDC) has begun feasibility studiesfor the building of a modern steel factory inPhalaborwa with which AMSA’s older facili-ties cannot compete.It is in fact precisely the Vanderbijlpark

works’s ageing technology that is making itthe most disposable in the entire group.“In the Vanderbijlpark works there are so-

me 200km of railway lines to transport dustback and forth, something that doesn’t makebusiness sense,” O’Flaherty told De Lange.AMSA annually blows about 15 million

tons of carbondioxide into the air, which pla-ces it afoul of the suggested tax of someR600-million per year. AMSA is also obliged to payabout R100-million per year to promisedcommunity development projects to ensure itcan maintain its operational licence.When Mittal took over the old Iscor in

2004, tensions between AMSA and the go-vernment began to build up due to broken pro-mises by both parties.This has now deteriorated to the point that

the relationship can be classed as hostile.According to De Lange, O’Flaherty is cur-

rently engaged in an overall dialogue with thegovernment, especially with the Departmentof Trade and Industry, and the IDC. It is presu-mably an effort at reconciliation described byO’Flaherty as an ‘olive branch’ process.The purpose is believed to establish where

AMSA, according to government, fits intoSouthAfrica. “Wewere always a fundamentalpart of the development of the country. Weknow AMSA’s side is not clean. For example,we don’t fulfil the requirements of black em-powerment. These will be difficult discussi-

ons,” O’Flaherty told De Lange.Bench Marks Foundation, a non-profit or-

ganisation that studies the impact of compa-nies’ impacts on its community and the envi-ronment, in November last year alleged thatthe health and safety of employees at Arcelor-Mittal’s Vanderbijlpark plant had deterioratedin the past years and that environmental and

housing conditions for the surrounding com-munities were “deplorable.”In its response to these allegations, Arcelor-

Mittal SA said that pollution at its operationswas under control; safety of employees wasa priority and it had a comprehensive socialresponsibility programme focusing on health,development and education of its employees.

Future of steelgiant’s V’bijl works uncertain

Paul O’ Flaherty, executive director of AM­SA.

Retha Fitchat

VANDERBIJLPARK. - Arcelor Mittal(AMSA) will need to scrutinise its num-bers carefully before a final decision is tak-en on shutting down of the Vanderbijlparkworks. That is if within the next ninemonths no solution can be found to makethe undertaking more profitable.If this steel giant withdraws from Van-

derbijlpark it will leave R1.59 billion of itsassets behind. This is at present themunici-pal valuation of its land and buildings inDelfos Boulevard. According to well-known Vanderbijlpark property evaluator,Mr Niel de Klerk, AMSAwill in all proba-bility have to continue paying monthlyproperty rates of several hundred thousandrand per month even if it discontinues allactivities at this property.The chances of AMSA finding a buyer

for the property are very remote. The de-mandsmade onAMSAwith respect to pol-lution control, the worldwide drop in de-mand for steel and outdated technology ofthe Vanderbijlpark works stultifying itscompetitiveness, are well-known. Pro-spective buyers will not be queuing up towrap up this “bargain buy” as such a trans-action will undoubtedly come coupledwith a number of long term headaches.“ArcelorMittal’s contribution in terms

of its property rates in relation to the totalproperty rate income of Emfuleni is not sohuge as many might think. Emfuleni willnot go under in the event of AMSA nolonger paying rates but the implications of

residents losing their employment and theimpact that this will have on other busi-nesses in the region will be phenomenal,”says Mr De Klerk.“There are measures these days by

which outdated plants such as that of Van-debijlpark can be easily and cost effective-ly renewed. It can only be hoped that Ar-celor Mittal will follow this route ratherthan that of shutting its local works down.”

Not many buyers willbe fighting over this

A couple of months ago the first ru­mours were heard that the Vander­bijlpark works of ArcelorMittal (AM­SA) might close because its anti­quated state had become more of aburden than an asset for AMSA. Mostof us smirked at this ‘nonsense’ in awe­know­better way. Now it looks asif the possibility of closure was neveras far out as we initially thought. Westill hope we’re looking at psycho­logical games and at the last cardthat AMSA can play in its negotia­tions with the government, but whocould blame Vaal Trianglers for feel­ing somewhat panicky at the possi­ble implications if AMSA Vanderbijl­park indeed closes? The greatestpart of the Vaal Triangle’s economydepends on AMSA and its satellitesteel industries.

Klippies Kritzinger, chairman ofthe Vanderbijlpark Sakekamer,predicts that it would have seriousimplications for the social stabilityof the Vaal Triangle if thousands ofemployees suddenly found them­selves out of work. Hundreds ofother small businesses that pro­vide services or products to AMSAVanderbijlpark ­ or receive samefrom AMSA ­ would also be forcedto close. Result: more unemploy­ment. Kritzinger and his Sakeka­mer’s members are very familiarwith the issue of competition.

All kinds of industry find them­selves – just like AMSA – underincreasing pressure to competewith China’s strategy to dominateworld markets. He asks thequestion we all ask: what is SouthAfrica going to do about this andwhen? The hourglass is runningtoward empty. Yunus Chamda,municipal manager of the Sedi­beng district, has a sobering and

realistic opinion: ArcelorMittal hasoperations in 60 countries andtherefore has the luxury of movingproduction to the plants whereprofits are highest.

If that means scaling down inSA, or even shutting down plantssuch as Vanderbijlpark’s complete­ly, they can do that without affect­ing their global supply to theircustomers.If government’s demands are toohigh and it affects ArcelorMittal’sbottom line too much, they canexercise those options.

The Vaal’s local government isvery aware of this possibility. Forthis reason Chamda and otherlocal government experts, whilesupporting the manufacturingsector, have over the last fewyears been campaigning for thebuilding of additional sectors likethe service sector and tourism, andare now also pushing on agricul­ture.

They have had some success,but we all know that we still relyfar too heavily on the steel manu­facturing sector.If AMSA decides to close theVanderbijlpark works, it will comeat a high cost. They will have toleave behind an asset worthalmost R1,6 billion because buyerswon’t fall over their feet to buy thiswhite elephant. Add the cost ofgetting rid of thousands of unionmembers who won’t take such aclosing­down lying down and thefigure might be staggering. Thebiggest price, however, will proba­bly not be paid by ArcelorMittal butby all residents of the Vaal who willdearly miss the prosperity broughtby the Vaal’s steel industry in thepast decades.

hou dit skielik weer op. Dis nou ‘n maandlater en steeds het niks verder gebeur nie.Die stukke teer en die sakke met teer

staan nou oral op die sypaadjie gepak enontsier die hele straat, maar weer eens lykdit nie of daar enige verdere planne is nie.‘nWeek gelede het ‘n waterpyp voor my

huis op die sypaadjie gebars. Ek het na ‘ngroot gesukkel uiteindelik iemand in diehande gekry om te kom kyk, en dit is waardit gebly het. Intussen het ek weer die mu-nisipaliteit geskakel en dit aangemeld enook nogal ‘n verwysingsnommer gekry,maar dis ‘n week later en die water loopdie hele straat vol. Daar word elke dag let-terlik duisende liters water gemors en alwie bekommerd is daaroor, is die inwonersvan die straat. Die straat het intussen alverder vol gate geraak as gevolg van diewater wat in die straat afloop. Hierdie straatis besig om die waarde van ons eiendommete beïnvloed en dit lyk regtig sleg.

weer bome afsaag. Sedertdien is die bomeklaar afgesaag, maar intussen staan die af-gesaagde stompe die hele straat vol en ditlyk nie of hulle enige planne het om dit uitte haal nie. Skielik op ‘n dag begin hulletoe om weer gate in die straat toe te maak.Dit het presies ‘n week aangegaan en toe

Die kruising in ons straat. Niemand stopdaar nie. Almal jaag net oor. En so een keer‘n week hoor onsdie remme, dieslag en kort daarnasirenes.So ‘n rukkie ge-

lede, een Sondag-oggend vroeg,hoor ons weer dieremme en die slag.Doenig in die tuin,loer ek oor diemuur. Ek sien hoeskarrel almal uitdie gestamptevoertuig. Bekykskade, stap diekant toe, ruil be-sonderhede uit…Gelukkig dat nie-mand ernstig seer-gekry het nie. Totdie sirene onderom die hoek ge-hoor kan word.Toe val almal soosvrot sakkies aar-tappels neer.So hoor ek toe

ook van ‘n ongeluk jare gelede net so buite-kantWarden inKestell se rigting. ‘nVol taxiwat ‘n draai gesny het, en in die proses ‘nbakkie vol meubels die veld ingestuur het.Die taxi self het ook nie te lig daarvan afge-kom nie, en het meters diep in ‘n mielielandtot stilstand gekom.Byna soos in Leon Schuster se fliek, tui-

mel die mense ook toe in hul dosyne uit elkemoontlike gat wat hulle kan kry, en beginrustig hul bagasie bymekaar maak waar ditin ‘n streep agter die spore deur die mielie-land gestrooi lê.

Die boer van die plaas is eerste op die to-neel. Hy stap eers na die bakkie toe en vindtoe dat niemand regtig seergekry het nie.Net

bietjie geskok.By die taxi

doen hy toe ookmaar sy kerklikeplig en vra uit, enweer is dit maarnet skok waarooralmal in hul eietaal met die boerpraat. Daar is nê-rens bloed be-trokke nie. Alwaaroor diemen-se kla is dat hullein QuaQua moetkom, en dat hullenou sonder ver-voer is.Die boer stap

toe maar terug nasy bakkie om oordie radio te roepvir hulp om dietaxi uit sy mielie-land te sleep en tekykwie waar kanhelp. Intussen hetiemand oor die

draadloos gehoor van die ongeluk, en toemaar sommer byvoorbaat die ambulans laatkom. So staan almal toe maar langs die padmet hul hope bagasie en duimgooi, met diehoop dat hulle maar so een-een in Qua Quasal kan kom, toe jy in die verte die ambulansse sirene hoor loei in die rigting van die on-gelukstoneel. Die volgende sien jy net hoedop hulle een vir een om. Want hul vervoerQua Qua toe is met rooi ligte op die dak enloeiende geraas op pad.En hulle reken dis net ‘n boer wat ‘n plan

kan maak?

Diana Pretorius of Three Rivers writes:I run a catering business, Beulah Crea-

tions, in Three Rivers and just this mor-ning discovered that another local bakerwho works from his home has been usinga photo of one of my wedding cakes(which I use on all my branding) on hiswebsite for the past year, passing it off ashis own work.I do not wish to expose him or bring

him bad publicity…

I think he is capable of doing that allby himself.When I confronted him he said that it

has been on his website for the past yearand he didn’t think I would mind.But being a client myself, I would like

to inform people in the community of suchincidents.Many people are misled by photos and

end up paying a lot of money for a cakeand not getting what they bargained for.

Industrial and Organisational psychology(IOP) is a specialised area that applies psy-chological theories and principles to addressproblems related to the workplace and orga-nisations and the individuals working in orga-nisations.

Some of the issues that an IO psychologistmight address include finding ways to increa-se worker productivity, selecting the mostqualified employees for specific job roles,and improving the mental and physical well-being of people in the workplace.

IO Psychology is the scientific study of theworkplace based on sound scientific theoryand proven psychological methods. The em-ployees in the workplace usually come fromthe community where the workplace is loca-ted. If the workers are not from the specificarea accommodation and facilities are createdand offered in the immediate area of theworkplace.

With the inter-woven nature of the commu-nity and the workplace, the focus area of IOPsychology often crosses either directly or in-directly between the workplace and the com-munity. A well-known contention is that “wecreate the world we live in”. And this goes

further to say that we become what our envi-ronment allow us to become. Employees whoare happy and content in their workplace arelikely to transfer that same good feeling backto their communities. And workers who areliving in a happy community are likely to car-ry their happiness to their workplace. The in-fluence of the community on the workplaceand vice versa can have various reciprocal ef-fects. Examples are a plenty; wage disputesthat spill over to communities, workplace dis-putes that results in strikes and the subsequenteconomic hardship; transport systems that isinsufficient resulting in demotivated employ-ees, basic services that are inadequate suchas basic sanitation, water and electricity re-sulting in employees feeling demotivated andeven depressed. Maintaining the communityand addressing the problems in the communi-ty to the benefit of the organisations and theindividual workers is therefore an importantfocus area in the broader field of IO Psycho-logy. IO Psychologists, being the specialistsin workplace psychology offer experienceand knowledge to the work environment, theemployees, employers, organisations and thebroader community to address the unique

challenges. That it is not always easy is evi-dent from the plethora of groups and initiati-ves who tries to address behavioural issuesin the community and the workplace, yet weare constantly reminded of the lack of results.Recent cases of industrial action and commu-nity unrest are examples of where the deepseated historical challenges seem to be insur-mountable. Every situation is unique with itsown requirements, demands, related to themain elements of organisations, individuals,interest groups etc. and requires a unique ap-proach.

Problems and projects are approachedfrom different perspectives, i.e. the commu-nity, organisations, business and individualsto explore what best could be done to offera suitable solution. Community projects suchas recycling, transport routes, determiningnew development areas, location of newschools, service delivery, development andbuilding shopping complexes, sport and re-creational facilities are some of the biggerand often more visible areas where IO Psy-chologists can contribute and be of value.Less visible areas and projects include the nu-merous NGOs and non-profit organisations

and groups concerned with i.e. animal protec-tion, HIV/Aids, homeless shelters, disabilitycare, and a host of other areas.

IO Psychologists as specialists in workpla-ce psychology offer the different role playersspecialist help to address challenges in thebroader community and in doing so aid in cre-ating a community where happy individualscan become productive and dedicated wor-kers in the different economic areas. This inturn will play back into the economic healthof the broader community – remember thecontention “we create the environment wherewe live and work.”

If you are aware of, or plan to start or arealready involved with any project related tothe initiatives mentioned then you shouldconsider the benefits from using the expertiseof an IO psychologist.

The recent death of world’s renowned actorRobin Williams is testimony that mental ill-ness is a serious condition, and needs to betaken seriously.

More often, people may not recognisethat they suffer from this condition. It is im-portant for people to begin learning and un-derstanding the symptoms, causes and waysto deal with mental health problems.

The South African Depression and Anxie­ty Group mentioned that about one in six ofthe South African population suffers frommental health problems, with some severeenough to necessitate hospitalisation. Men-tal illness, a disease or condition that influ-ences our emotional, physical, and socialwell-being, affects the way we think, feeland interact with our surroundings. Rese-arch conducted by the South African Colle-ge of Applied Psychology, revealed thatover 40% of people living with HIV in SouthAfrica have a diagnosable mental disorder,in lower socio-economic settlements sur-rounding Cape Town, one in three womensuffer from postnatal depression, and about41% of pregnant women are depressed in ru-ral Kwazulu-Natal.

Mental illness symptoms can range frommild to severe, and are different dependingon the type of illness. A person with untrea-ted mental illness is often unable to copewith everyday routines.

This condition can be prevented if inter-vention is timely, it does not have to landpeople in hospitals.

The National Healthy Worksite stated inits 2012 research report that causes of men-tal illness remain unknown, but in most ca-

ses, they could be a combination of factorsincluding genetic, biological, psychologicaland environmental factors

Conditions regarded as Mental Illnes-ses

There are different conditions recognisedas mental illness, with common types likesubstance dependency, commonly known asaddiction, which could be alcohol, drug, andnicotine addictions..

Another form of mental illness is depres-sion, which may occur once during one’s li-fetime. Major depression is one of the episo-des causing a series of mixed emotions suchas sadness, anger, loss of interest, sleep dis-turbances and anxiety which could lead tosuicidal thoughts. Bestmed encourages peo-ple who go through these kinds of emotionsto find medical help as soon as possible. Pre-ventative healthcare is key, and can save li-ves. In a bid to assist people cope with thisburdensome disease, Bestmed is one of themedical schemes that provides cover that in-cludes major depression for its members onthe Beat 4, Pace 1, and Pace 2 and Pulse 2options as a non CDL (Chronic Disease List)condition. These benefits are, however, sub-ject to availability of funds allocated on dif-ferent benefit options for services renderedout of hospital; however pre authorisationshould be obtained for services rendered du-ring hospitalisation.

* Other mental diseases such a bi-polarmood disorder and schizophrenia qualify forPrescribed Minimum Benefits (PMBs) onall Bestmed’s benefit options, says Dr Elsa-be Hammann, General Practitioner at Best-med.

12 Vaalweekblad, 15 Oktober ­ 17 Oktober 2014 Sake

RetiRement RefoRm 2015 – PaRt iiIn a previous article we broadly describedthe retirement reform that will take effect on 1March 2015. To highlight a few points, we men-tioned that provident funds as we know it willseize and new rules and governance will comeinto effect. We also mentioned in July that weexpect to see uproar andwithdrawals as we nearthe set date. This has al-ready started and for vari-ous reasons. Some goodreasons (rumours aboutsaving banks) which Iam not going to discusstoday, and some bad rea-sons for those that do notunderstand the change.

Today I will focus into more important detail.This important detail comes down to one ques-tion only and this crucial question that societyhas embedded in all of us is:

How will i be affected by the new legislationon provident funds?

The effect of the alignment between providentand pension funds will take a long time to havean impact on members, and will not affect provi-dent fund members who are currently close toretirement. All provident fund members will stillbe able to take all their retirement savings thatwould have been accumulated as at 1 March2015 as a cash lump sum whenever they gointo retirement. The conversion of a portionof the retirement money into income at retire-

ment will only apply to new contributions madeby those who are younger than 55 when the newrules come into effect. This means that memberswho are 55 years and older on 1 March 2015,when the new rules come into effect, will not beaffected. They will therefore still be able to even

take (new) contributions madeafter the new rules as a cashlump sum in retirement. Fur-ther, workers who are below55 years on 1 March 2015, willnot be asked to annuitize ortake a pension on the portionof new contributions if the to-tal of those new contributions

is less than the R150 000 (“deminimis rule”) threshold when they reach retire-ment. Irrespective of age, whatever a memberhas accumulated in the provident fund as at 1March 2015, will be available to them as a cashlump sum when the person retires (i.e. protectionof vested rights).

examples of How the Annuitisation Require-ment for Provident Fund Benefits will applyScenario 1: All provident fund members whoare 55 years old and above on 1 March 2015will not be affected by the change.Provident fund member A is 55 years old on thedate of implementation of legislative changes (1March 2015) and has accumulated R350 000 asat 1 March 2015. At retirement on 1 March 2020,member A is 60 years old and has accumulatedan additional R70 020 (i.e. “new contributions” af-ter 1 March 2015). Member A, will therefore, uponretirement, be entitled to take the entire providentfund benefit (i.e. R420 020) as a cash lump sum.

Scenario 2: A provident fund member whois less than 55 years old on 1 March 2015,with new contributions below the de minimisthreshold amount of R150 000Provident fund member B is 50 years old on thedate of implementation of legislative changes (1March 2015) and has accumulated R280 080 asat 1 March 2015. At retirement on 1 March 2025,member B is 60 years old and has accumulatedan additional R140 040. Member B, will therefore,upon retirement, be entitled to take R420 120 asa cash lump sum at retirement (made up of thefirst R280 080 plus R140 040 which is the ben-efit accumulated after 1 March 2015). Member Bis not affected by the annuitisation requirementbecause the amount accumulated after 1 March2015 (i.e. “new contributions”) is less than theR150 000 de minimis threshold amount.

Scenario 3: A provident fund member who isless than 55 years old on 1 March 2015, with

new contributions above the de minimisthreshold amount of R150 000Provident fund member C is 45 years old on thedate of implementation of legislative changes (1March 2015) and has accumulated R237 000as at 1 March 2015. At retirement, on 1 March2030, member C is 60 years old and has ac-cumulated an additional R210 060. Member C,will therefore, upon retirement, be entitled totake R307 020 as a cash lump sum at retire-ment (made up of the first R237 000 plus R70020 which is one-third of (R210 060) the ben-efit accumulated after 1 March 2015, i.e. “newcontributions”), and the remaining (two-thirds)R140 040 must be used to purchase an annuity/pension.

There may still be uncertainty and other burningquestions – feel free to contact our offices foranswers to those unanswered questionmarks.

Mense wat nie onderhoud vir hul kinders be-taal nie gaan dit binnekort weens voorgestel-de wysigings aan die Nasionale Kredietwetbaie moeiliker vind, indien nie onmoontliknie, om eiendom te koop.

Dit is die nuus van Richard Gray, uitvoe-rende hoof van Harcourts Real Estate, watverduidelik dat die wysigings, wat binnekortin die Parlement ter tafel gelê gaan word,daarvoor voorsiening maak dat maandeliksebetaling van onderhoud by die lys van skuld-verpligtinge gevoeg word wat banke in bere-kening moet bring wanneer beskostigbaar-

heidsondersoeke vir die toestaan van kredietgedoen word.

Dit maak ook voorsiening daarvoor datenige hofbevele teen ‘n ontduiker op sy kre-dietrekord aangeteken word en vyf jaar lankgeldig bly of totdat dit deur ‘n hof herroepword.

“Ongelukkig is ontduiking van onderhoudbaie algemeen in SA, waar bykans die helftevan alle kinders deur enkelouers grootge-maak word, maar die Departement van Justi-sie hoop dat die wysigings daartoe gaan bydradat die situasie omgekeer word,” sê hy.

“En ons verwag beslis dat dit vir almal watnie onderhoudsverpligtinge teenoor hul kin-ders nakom nie, baie moeilik gaan wees omgoedsmoeds finansiering te bekom om ‘n nu-we huis of beleggingseiendom te koop.”

Gray verduidelik dat die Nasionale Kre-dietwet reeds bepaal dat enige bank wat ‘naansoek om ‘n huislening evalueer eers moetvasstel wat die aansoeker se inkomste is, watdie gereelde maandelikse uitgawes beloop enwatter skuldverpligtinge die aansoeker reedsingevolge enige skuldooreenkomste wat bykredietburo’s aangeteken is, het.

“Dit skryf ook streng strafmaatreëls voorvir ‘roekelose lenings’ en ons almal weet hoedit huislenings die afgelope paar jaar beïn-vloed het omdat banke oorversigtig was.

“Met die insluiting van onderhoudsbeta-lings by die lys van skuldverpligtinge wat nouby aansoeke om krediet oorweeg moet worden wanbetaling van onderhoud wat by krediettellings in ag geneem moet word, is dit hoogsonwaarskynlik dat enigeen wat hul onder-houdsverpligtinge versuim ‘n huislening - ofenige ander krediet - sal kan bekom,”sê hy.

Geen onderhoud, geen huislening

A LOVING HOME THATREFLECTS SOUTH AFRICANDIVERSITYConsider adoption as an option.South Africa is a country with 11 official languages,hundreds of cultural groups and numerous recognisedreligions. Every day, families everywhere are mixing upthese ingredients to create this multi-wonderful nation thatwe know and love.

If you are thinking of adoption, have you consideredadopting a child from a different race or culture? Childrenare just children, no matter their biological background,and all children need a loving home.

Start your journey today by learning the facts withAdd-option, South Africa’s first national adoptionresource centre.

“There is a big difference between the idea of cross-culturaladoption, and actually taking a little boy or girl into yourhome. We didn’t adopt an idea, we adopted Jenna! Andfrom the first moment she has been the love of our lives,exactly the same as a proud mom and dad would reach outfor their biological baby at the hospital. The only differenceis that she wasn’t born from our womb, but from our hearts.”

Retha Fitchat

VANDERBIJLPARK. - Sharky Town, diékuierplek vir liefhebbers van lekker le-wendige musiek, het verlede naweek ge-kóók toe die Country-sanger Carlo Leonesy jongste CD, Klaasvakie, bekend gestelhet.Dit was duidelik dat dié gewilde sanger

na meer as 40 jaar in die musiekbedryf,steeds daarin slaag om jonk en oud se voe-te te kielie en hartsnare te roer. Met sy om-gee-persoonlikheid, selfdissipline en ener-gieke vertonings is Carlo nie net ‘n grootgunsteling by luisteraars nie, maar baieplaaslike jong kunstenaars getuig ookdaarvan dat hy hul rolmodel as mens enkunstenaar is.

Maar wie is dié innemende man regtig enhoe het hy in die musiekwêreld beland?“My musiekloopbaan het in standerd ses

aan die Hoërskool Vanderbijlpark begin toeek tydens ons skool se groentjiekonsert moesoptree. My vriend, Eddie Wilson, wat kitaargespeel het, moesmy baie vinnig die ‘basics’van ‘n liedjie leer en dis waar diemusiekgog-ga my gebyt en nooit weer laat los het nie,”vertel Carlo.Hulle het later ‘n skoolorkes, ‘The Vultu-

res’, gestig en gereeld by skoolpartytjies op-getree. Dit was destyds die einde van dieShadows-era, waarna die Beatles hul versky-ning gemaak het.“Ek was onmiddellik ‘n groot aanhanger

van dié talentvolle Britse groep. Dit het groot

probleme vir my veroorsaak by die skool,want ongelukkig was ek ook baie trots opmy lang hare. Op die eerste dag van matriekhet die onderhoof my voor die gym-saal in-gewag en die ultimatum gestel: ‘Sny jou hareof verlaat die skool!”Die besluit was maklik en Carlo het be-

sluit om ‘n professionele musikant te word.Sy pa, ‘n stoere Italianer wat met ‘n Afri-kaanse nooi getrou het, het egter daarop aan-gedring dat Carlo ‘n ambag moes voltooi omop terug te val as sy musiekloopbaan soumisluk.Na musiek was fisika sy

tweede liefde en hy het as ‘nvakleerling in instrument-werktuigkunde by Yskor inVanderbijlpark begin werken sy matriek aan die Tech-nikon met onderskeidingsin fisika en wiskunde voltooi.Ongelukkig was dit daar-

die jare nie maklik om ‘nbestaan uit musiek te maaknie en nadat hy in 1972 ge-troud is, moes sy werks-loopbaan prioriteit ge-niet. Musiek moes virbaie jare daarna net systokperdjie word tewylhy op ‘n “regte” loopbaangefokus het.Tussendeur was daar da-

rem tyd vir toer saam metDana Niehaus en FanusRautenbach. Hy was hulledirekte voorprogram-kun-stenaar “en die ironie wasdat ‘n destydse onbekendeVaaldriehoekse sanger metdie naam Bles Bridges,saam met ons getoer het!”

vertel Carlo.Deur die jare het Carlo opmenige Coun-

try-vertoning saam met sterre soos o.a.Lance James, Clive Bruce, Kenny Oliver,Tommy Oliver, Billy Forrest, TommyDell, Barbara Ray, Joanna Field, GeneRockwell, Caroline en Vicky du Preez,Vangie Coker, Bobby Louw, Bobby An-gel, Jody Wayne en Sally Vaughn opge-tree.Na 32 jaar diens by die destydse Yskor

het hy as bestuurder: Ingenieurstegnologieafgetree en kon musiek weer die nommer

een-posisie in sy lewe beklee.Carlo het reeds verskeie CD’s die

lig laat sien, waarvan verskeie nom-mers ereposisies op die S.A. Coun-try Top 10 en die Top 20 trefferspa-rades van radiostasies soos IFM102.2 behaal het.Tans bedryf hy sy eie opname-atel-jee, CBL Productions, in Vanderbijl-

park. Hy het hard gewerk aan syjongste CD, Klaasvakie, watpas vrygestel is, en hy beloofdat hy nie weer drie jaargaan wag voordat hy syvolgende bekendstel nie.

nuus oor plaaslike en nasi-onale kunstenaars. Drie le-sers wat aan Ster en Vaal-weekblad se “Car-lo”-wedstryd deelgeneemhet, wen sy jongste CD.Hulle is Erna Maritz, UnaMarais en Robbie My-burgh. Skakel 083 2460523 om u CD’s op te eis.

VANDERBIJLPARK. - Die Pes, deur dieFranse skrywer Albert Camus, vertaal deurPiet de Jager, is die boek wat professor Philvan Schalkwyk tydens die September-byeen-koms van die Vanderbijlparkse Leeskring be-spreek het.Dr. Bernard Rieux vertel die verhaal van

hoe die Algerynse stad Oran, rofweg vanafApril een onbekende jaar tot Februarie dievolgende jaar deur ‘n pesepidemie leef. Vroegin die roman word dooie rotte in ‘n gebouaangetref en nie lank daarna nie, word dieportier van die gebou waar dr. Rieux woon,een van die eerste slagoffers van die pes. Diestadword gesluit en in hierdie omstandighede- waar die epidemie meer as 230 mense perdag in ‘n stad van ongeveer 200 000 menseeis – kom die slegste en die beste van diemenslike karakter na vore.Wat die slegste betref, verlustig Gottard,

‘n vlugteling voor die gereg, hom in die stadse lot, aangesien hy in die omstandighede nievasgetrek kan word nie. Op sy beurt beplandie Paryse joernalis,Rambert, wat in die stadvasgekeer is, hoe hy sogou moontlik kan ont-snap om met sy geliefdeherenig te word.Maar die pes bring ook

die beste in die mense navore. Wanneer Rambertop die vooraand van sygewaagde ontsnappings-poging vir die eerste keerbesef dat Rieux self syvrou voor die epidemielaas gesien het omdat syweens siekte vir behande-ling elders moes heen,komhy tot inkeer enwerpsy lot in by die spannevrywilligers wat die stadstaande hou. Vader Pan-teloux, bewandel self ‘nweg vanaf liefdelose ver-oordeling na liefdevolle

nederigheid en lotsaanvaarding.Maar dit is veral dr. Rieux wat uitstaan as

stoïsynse held. Vir die ou Stoïsyne was diebeoefening van deugde soos geduld, mede-menslikheid en gelykmatigheid in alle om-standighede nastrewenswaardig. Vanuit diestaanspoor pak Rieux sy dikwels eensamestryd teen die pes, teen amptelike ontkenning,teen selfsugtige gedrag, aan. Nie een keer leesdie leser dat dr. Rieux sy lot bekla nie.

Die Pes is ‘n tydige toevoeging tot dieAfirkaanse letterkunde en die lees daarvandie moeite werd.Die leeskring vergader in die jeugsaal by

Driehoek NGK. Die volgende byeenkoms isopDonderdag 16Oktober, wanneer JeannetteCrawford-Brunt, AbrahamVerghese se boek,Cutting for Stone sal bespreek.Besoekers is altyd welkom, die gastefooi

is R40 wat tee en verversings insluit. KontakIna Delport by (016) 932 1790 of Bettie Du-venage by (016) 933 7600 vir meer besonder-hede.

No fear of failure!Met dié slagspreuk as motivering en ‘n

punt om te bewys het die Vaaldriehoeko.19-krieketspan sy stempel tydens dieGauteng o.19-krieketweek afgedruk.Waar die streekspan die afgelope paar jaarmelkkoeie was, is die bordjies vanjaar ver-hang met die span wat al vyf sy kragme-tings gewen het.Die span het onder meer vir St John’s

College, Jeppe Boys High en ParktownBoys High druipstert huis toe gestuur. Diekrieketweek wat oor vier dae plaasvind en20/20, eendagkrieket en tydkrieket insluit,dien ook as verdere proewe vir die onder-skeie Gauteng-spanne wat later vanjaaraan die nasionale weke gaan deelneem.Op die eerste dag het die manne van die

Vaal teen Parktown Boys High in ‘n tyd-wedstryd te staan gekom. Die Vaal se aan-vangskolwers Henri van Zyl enWianBritzhet met ‘n goeie aanvangsvennootskapvan 45 lopies getoon dat senuwees nie ‘nrol by die span gaan speel nie.Geduldige kolfwerk het die Vaal toege-

laat om 266/9 in 65 beurte aan te teken.Ruan Joubert (86) het ‘n kapteinsbeurt ge-speel en is goed deur Hugo Terblanche(42) en Charl Penning (40) ondersteun.Na Joubert vroeg met die bal toegeslaan

het en die span se draaibalboulers die kra-ne toegedraai het, het Parktown se pogingvan ‘n jaagtog tot ‘n oorlewingstog veran-der.Hulle het geëindigmet ‘n skamele 162/7

in 55 beurte. Diewedstryd teen JeppeBoysHigh is een wat Penning nie sommer salvergeet nie.Nadat sy twee paaltjies gehelp het om

Jeppe tot 207/10 te beperk, het hy ‘n mees-terklas in kolfwerk aangebied om ‘n uitste-
