Ready for carfree streetSAMANTHA LEE

Re-imagine the space without any motor-ised transport.This is the aim of a local NGOas the global

Open Streets concept hits the streets ofMitchell’s Plain in April.According to its website, the NGO aims to

challenge the paradigmof urbanmobility bycarrying out campaigns, temporary inter-ventions, dialogues andwalks that raise citi-zenawareness, sparkpublic debate, andulti-mately drive behaviour change, around therole of streets in the life of the city.Local proportional representative coun-

cillor Achmat Williams first brought theconcept to the subcouncil for consideration

following an interaction.“Our aim is to create shared spaces that

bring people together, nomatter who we areor how we move, for a more equitable, inte-grated, safer and vibrant Cape Town. Wewant streets to embody respect for all,” thesite reads.OnThursday lastweek, the formal engage-

ment with residents and community leadersbegan with a walkabout of the 1.2km stretchearmarked for the event.Rebecca Campbell, operations manager of

Open Streets, said the location was chosenin consultation with several departmentsand entities.“We have engaged with City of Cape Town

services.Whenwe look at a route, traffic ser-vices give input on what will work for the

community. We also looked at AZ BermanDrive but AZ Berman is for cars, whereasMerrydale is for the community,” she says.The sectionallocated for the eventwill run

along Merrydale Avenue between Hazel-dene Avenue and Spine Road.This will mean the busy street will be

closed to traffic in this section for the dura-tion of the event.The stretch already features a wide pave-

mentwith a seldomly used cycle lane and pe-destrian walkway.The wide area is ideal for the concept, or-

ganisers say.The group, made up of NGO representa-

tives, residents and local ward councillors,were asked to answer three questions tohelpevaluate if the space was adequately suited

to the event’s needs.The concept will be moulded by the com-

munity, says organisers. This was the firstof four community engagements.Two public meetings will follow to allow

residents to bring ideas and suggestions onwhat they would like to see happen at theevent.A small number of preselected and

screened vendors will be allowed to tradethere on the day.The main objective will be to promote

walking and cycling as alternatives to mo-torised transportation.A second and final walkabout will be held

ahead of the event.V Details of the two meetings to he held next monthwill be published in People’s Post soon.

Sports stars of the Cape Flats during theapartheid era may not be known around theworld but they left a legacy that remains re-vered in their home towns long after they leftthese shores.One of the legends of South African athlet-ics and baseball, Kenny Roman (69), died inBrisbane, Australia last Tuesday after a longbattle with cancer.Roman had a stellar career in the mid-1960s as a sprint champion at Harold CressyHigh School and Hewat Teachers TrainingCollege. At that time the sprint distanceswere dominated for more than a decade by

another legend, Cecil Blows.Roman knocked him off his perch andruled the roost for the 100m for most of thenext decade. He held both the Western Prov-ince and SouthAfrican records over this dis-tance.Roman, from Maitland originally, alsoplayed baseball for the Maitland Giants.Two years ago, Roman was brought backto SouthAfrica byMaitland’s community or-ganisation, Play Sport4Life, to be inductedinto the inaugural Maitland Giants Hall ofFame.“It was a very emotional time,” said MilesOctober, the head of PlaySport4Life, a localsports empowerment organisation.“Kenny was not well then, but he agreed

to come and join the other Maitland Giantslegends like George Fester, Danny Page,Dennis Millar and Trevor Oldale at the cere-mony.“Maitland Giants, as a club, had, in effect,been dormant for a number of years. I cansafely say that after that event, Kenny’s pres-ence sparked so much interest that the clubstartedupagainand theyare leading thepro-motion league this season and are headingfor the majors next year. Such was the auraabout him.”“We should acknowledge our heroes intheir lifetime and honour their legacy andPlay Sport4Life will see to it that the legendthat is Kenny Roman will be acknowledgedappropriately.”

SAMANTHA LEE@Samantha_lee121

Thousands of residents across theWesternCape have experienced deductions from

their Sassa grants, and last week Mitchell’sPlain residents demanded to know why.LocalwardcouncillorSolomonPhilander,

who called the meeting between beneficia-ries and officials, said: “This is not political.Tonight we want answers and everyonemust leave knowing the way forward.”About 80 residents from Mitchell’s Plain

were present on Monday last week.Philander was recently at a meeting with

some of the beneficiaries and says they allhad similar complaints.Some of the other complaints are about

cards, waiting for reimbursements, gettingpaid out less than expected for months at atime and Sassa officials who are not able tohelp.In some cases there were insufficient staff

to help the beneficiaries at the time of thevisit.Henry Degra, general manager of Sassa

grants administration, said theywere awareof the deductions.“We have heard what the councillor has

said and taken note of your concerns. Thismatter is not only a problem in the WesternCape but in the whole country,” he said.Degra explains the move to the Sassa

cards opened the system up to fraud andcrime.“I’m sure everyone liked the Allpay sys-

tem – we had problems but not these prob-lems. Therewere long lines but everyone gotall of their money. Of course there were stillrobberies,” he explained.“With the new cards we gave 10m people

access to the banking sector, but with thatwe opened it up to fraud.”In response to alleged fraudulent electrici-

ty and airtime deductions in most cases, De-gra said there were two ways to look at it.“There are two groups, thosewhohave au-

thorised deductions and thosewhohave not.According to the law, the only deduction al-lowed on a Sassa card is a funeral plan,” hesaid.Degra continued that many people give

their PIN numbers and cards to loan sharksand then reported cases of stolen cards toevade them.Another explanation was that residents

could have left their cards and IDdocumentsin the hands of others who could havebought the airtime and used it without thebeneficiaries’ consent.He added that residents who have experi-

enced deductions should still follow steps tohave their money refunded.“We need residents to report it to us. We

pay the money over to a company and theypay it to the beneficiaries. Sassa is not awareof the deductions and if we look on the sys-tem we cannot see deductions,” he said.Firstly, residents should give a statement

that they have had unauthorised deduc-

tions. This must be accompanied by a slipthat shows the deductions.The beneficiary will then be required to

fill in a dispute resolutionmechanism formthat will be submitted to Sassa head office.Refunds should take no longer than one

month, Degra says.

Swallowed cardsAs far as swallowed bank cards, Busis-

iwe Letompa, Sassa senior manager forpayment in the region, explained the ma-jority of these cards had been reportedmissing, stolen or that deductions weremade.“We are asking you to change your PIN

numbers if you have had illegal deduc-tions,” she said. She added 8000 people havebeen requested to change their PIN num-bers.Another scam to be aware of is food par-

cels, Letompa says. Sassa officials wouldnever contact residents about food ham-pers. Degra said Sassa officials would alsonot visit any beneficiary at home unless re-quested to do so.Degra added they are not afraid to prose-

cute any of their own staff found to be be-hind fraud.Letompa said residents who have seen

deductions of less thanR20would not be re-funded as these are bank and withdrawalfees.“We have an agreement that you can

draw money at the merchants, but somePick n Pays will charge you - especially thefamily stores - because they are not part ofthe agreement,” she says.Black Sash representative Elroy Paulus

said they should be looking at tender com-pany Cash Paymaster Services (CPS) whoare responsible for thedistributionof grantpayments.“CPS is owned by Net1. They are a moth-

er company with many other smaller com-panies. Some of the deductions have beencharged by other companies they own,” hesaid.Net1 CEO Dr Serge Belamant told Peo-

ple’s Post: “Any account holder can makea purchase using his card and these trans-actions are effected as sales and not deduc-tions. All other deductions, like debit or-ders, are processed through the systemowned by the banks.“Any company can submit a debit order

as long as it is approved by the accountholder. This facility is part of the South Af-rican banking system.“As Net1 we have gone a little further, as

we ask account holders to approve any deb-it orders using biometric verification rath-er than PIN presentation. This has elimi-nated all fraud on our debit orders that areused for the repayment of loans or the col-lection of insurance premiums.Net1 has of-fered the system to anyone that wished tomake use of this secure means of transact-ing, thus protecting the account holders intotality.”

He further explains CPS is a 100%-ownedsubsidiary of Net1.The fundamental requirement of CPS’s

service to Sassa is to provide a payment sys-tem that can make use of the national infra-structureor thoseoperatedbyall SouthAfri-can banks.Because of demand from account holders,

Net1 developed a mobile channel throughwhich account holders could purchasemany products and services, such as air-time, electricity, loan finance, insurance,statements and other useful information.Beneficiaries need to register with the mo-bile service before they can transact.This registration requires grant account

holders to enter their IDnumber, last 4 digitsof their card as well as their PIN number.It has always been at the grant recipient’s

discretion to register with the Manje servi-ces and to date, more than 5m customersmake use of this facility, says Belamant.

City man joinscrime patrolSAMANTHA LEE

@Samantha_lee121

A group of residents recently took chargeof their streets with a patrol from 21:00

to 00:00.JP Smith, mayoral committee member

for Safety and Security, joined the Rivers-dale Way block committee during a patrolof the area on Friday.

“I patrol regularly with neighbourhoodwatches across the city and I have request-ed various watches to invite me to join themwhen they have patrols in their areas. Onthese patrols I often discover new ways inwhich we can support them. I can also moni-tor whether we as the City of Cape Town aredelivering on the current support pro-grammes directed to neighbourhood watch-es and I am given insight as to whether thesupport programme is benefitting theneighbourhood watch,” says Smith.

members are well-organised and very en-thusiastic, but need more resources in theform of jackets, torches, boots and bicycles,all of which they will soon be receiving inaddition to what they have already re-ceived.

They have several members who areready to join the City’s law enforcementauxiliary service (LEAS).

“The group has a good membership, butdoes not have patrollers from every part ofthearea.Theywould like topatrol a broaderarea; however, ongoing recruitment is donewhile they are patrolling. On Friday nightI approached two residents standing in

front of their doors, who agreed to go on pa-trol with us there and then,” says Smith.

“It was also encouraging to see the wardcouncillor, Danny Christians, patrollingwith us and to hear that he has set budgetaside for equipment for the group. Wewould like to see more councillors doingso.”

Peace officersNo Metro Police and Law Enforcement of-

ficers were on the patrol. They will patrolwith neighbourhood watches when request-ed.

“The City’s LEAS programme allowsneighbourhood watch members to betrained as peace officers. This will allow thepeace officers to patrol on their own, as theywill have all the required powers to act onthe issues they confront. This eliminatesthe need to have police officers, Law En-forcement or Metro Police officers to patrolwith them,” explains Smith.

More residents are encouraged to join.“Research shows that an active neigh-

bourhood watch is the largest deterrent ofcrime – even more than police, armed re-sponse or alarm systems. By doing these pa-trols, the neighbourhood watch is doingmore than just preventing crime – it isbuilding social cohesion and social capital,”he says.

“With ongoing recruitment the neigh-bourhood watches can mobilise more andthis will allow more residents to become ac-tive in their communities, which does notjust address crime. This will help build a de-fence against other social ills and create aplatform where residents can mobilise toaddress other community issues.”

TwoNewWoodlandsmen have successful-ly completed a trip aimed at building and

growing ties with various groups in NewZealand.One to build partnerships between indige-

nous groups, the other to strengthen cultur-al expression.Chief Basil Coetzee and Mogamat Meini-

ers visited various cities in New Zealand

while on a three-month trip.“By their own admission, the South Afri-

cans living in New Zealand were always ex-cludedwhen it came to culture and heritage.Nowtheyare includedandrecognised,” saysCoetzee.Ruthewaan Waggie and Prof Hirini Ma-

tungawere role players in seeing the trip be-come a reality.Their aim of building unity between cul-

tures and countries was successfullyachieved with one of their main objectives

bringing home bursaries for youth fromNew Woodlands.“Bursaries are available for study in klop-

skunde in New Zealand. Terms and condi-tions do apply and further details will beavailable,” says Meiniers.Overall the pair agree the trip was a re-

sounding success.A formal documentary of the trip is cur-

rently in production.V The following are accounts of their personal objec-tives and experiences.

NEW WOODLANDS

Trip brings bursaries


He travelled thousands of kilometres tospread his knowledge about the Klopse andMalay choirs.After being involved for more than 50

years, Mogamat Meiniers’s knowledge wassought to help develop the Cape cultureamong 220 ethnic groups living inAuckland,New Zealand.Meiniers was part of a parade through the

streets ofAuckland that drew close to 300 000spectators.Part of the parade was a Klopse troop that

could rival any Capetonian troop with col-ours and face paint to match.Meiniers says: “Therewere people fromall

ethnic groups in the Klopse troop – Tongans,English and South Africans.”Meiniers also produced a show called the

Hoppa Show. It involved Klopse, Malaychoirs and a variety show.“They are so open to embracing our cul-

ture that I could train two of them to sing asong in Afrikaans and I sang a song withthem in their language,” he says.Another highlight of the trip was that he

has been invited back to coach a Samoanchoir.“All my goals have been achieved,” he

says.He says some of the highlights of his trip

wasmeeting thewarm people and reconnect-ing with Ruthewaan Waggie, who made thetrip possible.

Klopse go toAuckland


He had been fighting for recognition forthe Khoisan for almost a decade and nowhe has successfully built ties with otherindigenous people across the globe.“All indigenous people in the world

have gone through the same struggles. Ihad a bit of background into the Maoriculture and heritage and their strugglefor self-determination was similar tothat of the Khoi,” says Basil Coetzee,Khoisan chief.Their journey started in 2014 when

they raised funds to enable them to visitNew Zealand last year.Coetzee saysmany events stood out for

him during the trip, including being ac-cepted by the Maori and being recog-nised as fellow indigenous people.He explains that as a chief he has been

bestowed a special honour and is held inhigh esteem by the locals.“Iwanted to spend timewith theMaori

youth and I got the chance to interviewsome of them to find out about the cultur-

al expressions,” he says.“Themost important highlight was ex-

periencing the Maori cultural expres-sion, warmness and sincerity. The peo-ple really made us feel welcome.”Coetzee was also honoured at a powhi-

ri, a traditional ceremony held for spe-cial occasions.The two tribes also signed memoran-

dums of understanding, joining them inpartnership.He explainsmany South Africans only

know the Maori through rugby and thatthere ismore to learn about their diverseculture.Hisvisit is thebeginningof proc-esses to establish ties between the twogroups, enabling a better understandingand relationship between the two coun-tries.He believes in this regard, his goals

and objectives were met. He would alsolike to thank Prof HiriniMatunga for hisinvolvement in their trip.Coetzee came home with various gifts,

including a carved walking stick, aspear, a traditional weapon and two pre-cious stones.

There was a buzz in the hall of BlackpoolSports Complex in Salt River on Satur-

day when more than 500 former residents ofDistrict Six gathered for a gala lunch.They were the guests of the District 6

Working Committee which hosted the eventin commemoration of the 50th anniversaryof 11 February 1966, when the area was pro-claimed a white area.For many bittersweet memories were

raised as they met up with former friendsand neighbours and shared their stories oftheir lives in the far-flung suburbs to whichthey were moved.Most of the area is still bare as ongoing

plans for restitution are still discussed, but

for most of these former residents theirheartache is still here. They all feel that thespirit of this vibrant community will neverbe regained.ShahiedAjam, chairperson of the commit-

tee, felt the gala lunchwas a special occasionbecause all the invited guests came from dif-ferent historically disadvantaged communi-ties who were previously affected by apart-heid and forced removals.

Remembering“We hosted this event in remembrance of

the lives and livelihoods which were lostthrough the forced removals of yesteryear,”he said.Mogamat Salie Williams felt that one of

the most powerful aspects that made the ar-ea special was the respect and love for all re-

ligions and the different churches.“My family lived in Richmond Street and

I attended theMoravian School and grew upin that church,” he says.“We attended mosque but the school and

churchwere important to our family and theeducation of the community.“When it was Easter we painted the

church, cleaned it and I even sang in thechoir sometimes. When it came to bazaartime all the churches and mosques support-ed each other. That is the spirit that they cannever bring back.”Rashieda Essop, originally from Chapel

Street, had recently moved back to the area.Shewasdiscussingher experienceswithAb-dulgamied “Tommy” Hartley and his wifeGadija who used to live in Sydney Street.“I miss the open doors in our neighbour-

hood,” says Rashieda.“If you needed help no door was ever

closed to you. You knew if you gave some-body help this week, next week they wouldbe able to help you.“The saddest day for me was when our

neighbours had to move to Gugulethu. Myfather helped organise a bakkie and he criedwhen he saw where they were moving.”The Hartleys also have fond memories of

the area.“There are just somany stories of the good

times we had there. Yes, people were poor,but they still had pride and respect for eachother,” he said. “Of course there was crime,even gangs, but these were different kind ofgangsters. They were naughty but nevernasty or wanting to destroy the communi-ty.”

More smiles than tears at D6 gala lunch


CAPE TOWN CARNIVAL

Life’s passion found on Fan WalkTIYESE JERANJI

@jeranji

“Dancing is my life. I even havea tattoo about dance because

this is one thing that I’m very pas-sionate about.”

This is what Kurt Palmer (20)from Steenberg says. Palmer real-ised his dream when he starteddancing in front of a huge crowd ofspectators at Cape Town Carnivalfive years ago. He has since devel-oped this dream into a passion andtoday, he is a lead performer atCape Town Carnival and choreo-graphs routines for the communitygroup of Steenberg High School –which is where it all started.

Palmer has been dancing for thepast 11 years, starting with balletin primary school and then joiningSteenberg High’s communitygroup. Thiswaswhere he ended upperforming on a public platformand discovered that it was some-thing that he would like to do forthe rest of his life.

“I have always known my pas-sion in life was dancing, ever sincemy first performance.When I haveto change into character it feels ba-sically like I’m starting a new life,opening my body and mind to newthings that will tell a story.”

Despite nowdoingwhat he loves,Palmer says that it has never beenan easy journey: “One of the chal-lenges I had to overcome as a teen-agerwas the bullying and negativi-ty by pupils at my school but I al-ways made a way to overcomethem.

“Coming from disadvantaged

communities it was even difficultto go to rehearsal because of crimi-nal activities. Getting from oneplace to another was a struggle butI knew this is what I wanted to doso I had to face the struggles headon.

“One of the greatest motivationsI hadwasmy life orientation teach-er in matric, Ms Priestley, who al-ways had confidence in me and

helpedme out inmydance career.”Palmer has seen the value Cape

Town Carnival has brought to themany participants and spectators.“Because of our performances inCape Town Carnival, we have hadperformances at the Baxter festi-val and the Cape Arts festival.

“This helped to shape the personI am today. I really enjoy dancing.When I have all eyes onme it really

makes it easy forme to domy thingand I want to give people the best,”he says.

In its seventh year, Palmer saysthe theme for this year’s CapeTown Carnival is going to be ashow stopper.

“Well, ‘Street Life’ is definitelygoing to bemy favourite; it is some-thing new and it is very different.It is difficult to say though ... each

year brings its own pizzazz.“I am so excited to take part in

the carnival this year, my body isdancing to the rhythm of ‘StreetLife’,” he says.Hiswish is toworkwith theCape

TownCarnival: “One ofmy biggestdreams is to become a part of theteam that creates Cape Town Car-nival, to showcase and show offCape Town in different ways.“Each person brings his own fla-

vour to the parade. Cape Town isfull of colour and culture and eachperson brings his own unique-ness.”This year the carnival promises

to be even more dynamic, with co-median Siv Ngesi participating forhis third year and other local per-sonalities like Liezel van derWest-huizen, Zoe Brown and DannyRoss joining the parade.It will be held on the Fan Walk

of Green Point on 12 March. Visi-tors will have the freedom of thecity streets from 15:00 as they joinfamily and friends to enjoy the va-riety of food and crafts on offer.The streets will be closed for fi-

nal preparations at 18:00, givingcarnival-goers enough time to findthe perfect viewing spot, find theirseats or make their way to one ofthe many restaurants along theFan Walk.The parade begins at 19:00.

A Tafelsig woman gave birth at homethree months prematurely, after she

had been sent hom by doctors at the localmaternity unit with amisdiagnosis, a rela-tive believes.Shakiera Abrahams gave birth to her

son at home one afternoon in January.Shewas sixmonths pregnant at the time.Two days earlier Abrahams had visited

the Maternity Obstetric Unit (MOU) inMitchell’s Plain complaining of back painand bleeding.Doctors said she had a kidney infection

and, according to the relative’s letter toPeople’s Post, “ignored the bleeding”.Abrahams was sent home with painkill-

ers and antibiotic tablets, but the pain nev-er subsided. Two days after her visit the

painwas so severe that Abrahams’s grand-mother, Johanna Koopman, called for anambulance.While waiting, Abrahams began giving

birth. The baby’s head was already clearlyvisible between her legs.The baby was born still enclosed in the

amniotic sack. Koopman broke the sackand started CPR on the newborn.Several neighbours crowded the house

and offered help, givingKoopman a chanceto focus on Abrahams.Koopman did what she thought best to

save both her granddaughter and thechild’s life.The baby started crying and ambulance

services arrived.It would appear Abrahams had been in

labour when she visited theMOU two daysearlier. But a health department spokes-person denies this.

Monique Johnstone confirms Abra-hams’s visit and says: “Abrahams was ex-amined by a medical professional whotreated her condition appropriately. Shewas then discharged with the requiredmedication to treat the condition.“If she requires any more detail about

her treatment, we encourage her to speakto the treating doctor or facility manager.We can also confirm, according to hermed-ical records and a documented medical ex-amination, that the patient was not misdi-agnosed, andbecauseof patient-doctor con-fidentiality we are unable to divulgefurther information to the public.”“The doctors said that if it was not for

the calmness and quick reaction of mymother [Koopman], the baby would nothave made it.“I want this story to be told to other preg-

nant mothers out in our communities,”

writes Christopher Spandiel in his letter.Johnstone says the MOU accommodates

up to 3500 pregnant women, on average. Ofthese patients 2000 are examined by ante-natal care professional nurses, 730 are ad-mitted to the labour ward, 200 are treatedfor minor disorders or false labours, 240are transferred from labour wards to otherfacilities and 280 deliver their babies at theMOU.“Wedonot have an allocated figure of pa-

tients seen at the MOU. The facility assistsas many expectant mothers as possible, asour policy is to accommodate any expect-ant mother seeking healthcare, unless sheneeds to be referred to a secondary or terti-ary healthcare institution for furthercare,” she says.On average the MOU has three prema-

ture births in a month due to various com-plications and health reasons.

Computercentre comingSAMANTHA LEE

@Samantha_Lee121

A project set to be completed within thenext two months will benefit several

residents and youth at risk.Ikamvu Ubomi, a youth and skills de-

velopment organisation, has partneredwith the First ChurchRestorationCentrebased at Camp Joy to renovate two roomson the property as a resource centre.First Church representative Pastor

Craven Engel, who is responsible for thecentre on the Camp Road property, saysthe project should take about twomonthsto complete.“We have partnered with Ikamvu Ubo-

mi before to set up a resource centre inHanover Park that is fully functionalnow. I approached [the organisation] be-cause the community needs this,” saysEngel.The centre will be open for the use of

the community.Engel says the centrewill offer comput-

er training and access to the internet.“There will be specific time slots for

residents, but the centrewill be open 24/7with full internet access,” he says.The project was launched on Wednes-

day last week.Engel says there is a need for skills

training as part of the programme to helpensure participants have skills that willenable them to find jobs and keep on thestraight and narrowafter leaving the pro-gramme.A second space will also host a confer-

ence area.Eugene Walker, founder of Ikamvu

Ubomi, says the project is a big undertak-ing and the centre participants will playa big role in setting up the centre.“We are looking to have between eight

and ten computers, depending on thespace. We also already have people train-ing to run the space,” he says.The project will require paint, flooring

and other upgrades before set-up can takeplace.Bucohardware storewill supplyallnecessary building materials.Buco branch manager Dolan Petersen

says theymake sure to give back, not onlyto build brand but to build community.“We have done some major projects

thus far and that plays a part in buildingthe community. It is critical that we sup-port the community.Wewill be supplyingall the paint, building materials and allother supplies needed for this project,”says Petersen.Ikamvu Ubomi was also instrumental

in setting up a screen-printing room sixmonths ago where some of the partici-pants are currently creating and design-ing their own T-shirts, cups and othergoods.Ward councillor Elton Jansen and

Ratepayers’ Association chairpersonGaironesa Diedericks agree the project isa great idea.“I always support projects that have

youth development as a high priority. Ibelieve that everyone needs a secondchance and this programme is givingthem a second chance. I also like the ideaof a computer project because manyyoung people in the community are noteducated and this will have the resourcesto equip and empower them,” says Jan-sen.Diedericks says she will definitely

make use of the services.“This is a very positive programme. I

really hope it grows from strength tostrength,” says Diedericks.V For more information call Edwina May on072 670 4473.

Org helps for 30 yearsThis year the Mustadafin Foundation cele-brates its 30th year.The organisation serves poor communi-

ties in and around the province, and latelytheEasternCape aswell, with health, educa-tion, poverty eradication, community devel-opment and disaster relief.The organisation feeds up to 15 000 people

every day. It ensured the successful integra-tion of 150 homeless children into the publicschool system by last year.The organisation has also established

health programmes, adult literacy pro-grammes, a bursary programme for stu-dents in tertiary education and 22 pre-schools.“Our greatest achievements last year in-

cluded appointing 25 more employees in Ta-felsig – with the help of the department ofsocial development – and signing an agree-ment to collaborate with the National Asso-ciation of Child CareWorkers on its Isibindiproject,” says Ghairunisa Johnstone,founder and director of the Foundation.The Isibindi project implements commu-

nity-based care and protection programmesthat help children and youth who have beenleft desolate by death in the family due toHIV/Aids.Johnstone also received the Community

Builder of the Year award at the Black Busi-ness Quarterly (BBQ) Awards last year. Theorganisation also achieved second place inthe BBQ Innovative Business Award.Fahiema Kruger, who started as a volun-

teer cook, is now principal of the organisa-tion’s early childhood development centre.She says: “Johnstone liftedme up 16 years

ago when I thought I was no-one. She in-spired me when I thought the world wascoming down on me.”“Our work is not without its challenges;

Mustadafin Foundation’s volunteers andstaff often work in areas rife with violenceand social apathy,” says Johnstone. The or-ganisation also needs a vehicle and fundingto complete a building that can serve as acentre from which to operate in Cape Town.Despite the difficulties, the non-profit con-

tinues to actively uplift the community.Recent initiatives include delivering

cooked food andChristmas parcels to a thou-sand people, including 100 seniors in poorcommunities, distributing meals and blan-kets to 120 victims of the Nomzamo fire, giv-ing 1700 bags to patients at the Groote Schu-ur hospital and treating children to a day inthe park.The organisation is looking forward to a

more successful year and to operating froma building owned by the organisation by theend of the year.However, it is not merely the number of

volunteers or the amount of funds that willcreate change. “This year,wewant to see thecommunity being committed to educationand its members taking ownership of theirlivesbybeautifying themselvesand their en-vironment,” says Johnstone.V For more information visit www.mustadafin.org.zaor call 021 633 0010/ 0060.

Ghairunisa Johnstone, founder and director ofthe Mustadafin Foundation, believes “If everyperson helps his neighbour, then who wouldneed help?” This has been the key messageand motivation behind the work of theFoundation, a non-profit organisation, for thepast 30 years.

EDUCATION

Good studentto greatFebruary has arrived, and parents arebreathing a sigh of relief – exams are over,children are registered and the academicyear has begun.Routine has established itself, with early

rising, treasure hunts for clean schoolshirts and finger-waving exercises in themorning traffic. Now is the time to settlethe household. Balancing life, work and ex-tramural activities is no easy task.Yes, the social and soft skills we gain

from teamwork in sports and extramuralactivities doplay avital role in our develop-ment as fully rounded, well-adjusted, pro-ductive and caring contributors to ourworld, but we must prioritise academics.There is so much value in teaching our

children to cope with the demands ofschool, authority, routine and exams. Isn’tthat what we deal with on a daily basis atwork? We have to arrive on time; we haveprojects to complete and deadlines to meet.Life lessons start in the home. Sowhy not

To get you started, here are a fewwell-tried suggestions.1: Breakfast: the most important meal ofthe day.

Thanks for helping

We thank you for your help forthe less fortunate. Helping young-sters change their lives andimprove their situation makes usall “proudly South African”.We have received a good re-

sponse from the post you pub-lished in People’s Post last month.We strive to empower our youth

to become active and responsiblecitizens. Generosity enables theSalesian Institute’s youth projectsto continue to work with thevulnerable youth of Cape Town.

‘Horrified’ at schoolOn Friday 12 February I had theunfortunate experience of accompanyingmy daughter to Crestway High Schoolto write her supplementary exams.I was horrified at the conditions

under which they had to write. Therewere 82 pupils writing in one classroom.I was extremely disappointed to hear

from the secretary of the school that noother school wanted to assist with thesupplementary exams. I know there areschools that have the facilities toaccommodate these kids. Not only wasthe “examination room” inadequate, butthe area itself was extremely unsafe.The toilets were highly unhygienic

and filthy. The doors had no locks,there were holes in the ceilings andthere were holes in the cubicles facingthe outside, offering no privacy.Some of the kids were there from just

after 07:00. And not being able to usethe bathroom until 12:00 – it’s justunacceptable.Besides feeling completely vulnerable

myself I feel heart-sore for our childrenwho have to endure these conditionsevery day. What a huge disappointmentin the Western Cape education depart-ment.These kids are our future and they

deserve better!ANON,

Paddy Attwell, spokesperson of theWestern Cape Department of Edcucation(WCED) responds:Fifteen schools, including Crestway

High School, are hosting supplementaryexaminations.Crestway has created an examination

hall for the purpose by removing wallsbetween three classrooms.This has created sufficient space to

accommodate the maximum number ofcandidates writing the examinations atthe venue, in this case, 87.Examination officials visited the

school last Thursday, and found thevenue spotlessly clean and more thanadequate for the 69 candidates scheduledto write the next examination.The candidates are not sitting in one

classroom, as suggested by your reader,but in three classrooms that the schoolhas joined together.The school has cordoned off the hall

so that normal school activities do notdisrupt the examinations.While the school is old, the ablution

facilities are well looked after andserviceable.The WCED rotates the venues be-

tween clusters of schools each year, incollaboration with the schools con-cerned. We have not experiencedreluctance to host the examinations, assuggested in the letter.

Well done, UIFI can’t agree with Pat Manwaring. Iwent to the UIF office in Athlone and Imust say we were treated very well. Aswith all government departments thereare queues.But I must point out that thestaff at Athlone office treated everyonewith the utmost respect. At one stagethey offered me a chair to sit on whilewaiting for the doors to open.I was always given a date when to go

in and sign and also how much I wouldreceive that Friday (pay day).They always put the date on the form

which you fill in for your next signdate. I must thank the staff of theAthone UIF office for a job well done.

Be selfish – drive eco-friendlyEco-driving is a driving style that is both ec-ological and economical – a combination ofsafe and defensive driving.A national tyre fitment centre and an ad-

vanced driver training company encouragemotorists to understand someof thekeyben-efits of eco-driving.According to their statement this combi-

nation of driving styles encourages driversto use their cars in an environmentally effi-cientway to improve road safety, reduce fuelconsumption and lower greenhouse gasemissions.They say adopting an eco-friendly style of

driving will have a positive impact both fi-nancially and on the environment.Some of the benefits of environmentally

efficient driving are that it reduces the useof and demand for non-renewable fuels andgreenhouse gas emissions, helps to improvethe overall air quality and reduces ambientnoise levels. Benefits also include an in-crease in the life of your engine, tyres, brakepads and savings in maintenance and fuelbills.There are several ways to help reduce the

amount of CO2 being pumped into the atmos-phere and, at the same time, save time andmoney through lower fuel consumption.Thechanges can be small, such as making sureyour fuel cap is secure, to more beneficialchanges such as better route planning.

AnticipateBy looking well ahead, scanning the road

and easing off the petrol in good time, it ispossible to avoid harsh and late braking,which will immediately save fuel.Keep the car moving, albeit very slowly,

to conserve the car’s kinetic energy, whichin turn saves fuel and reduces CO2.

Drive smoothlyUsing the steering, gears and brakes in a

smooth manner – rather than harsh, last-minutebraking –allows the car todecelerateusing engine braking.This is not only more comfortable for you

and your passengers, but it is more efficientdue to energy loss.Using the car’smomentum, like travelling

downhill with no petrol input, can save aconsiderable amount of fuel.

Following distanceDriving with an appropriate distance be-

tween you and the car in front is not onlysafer but has the potential to be more effi-cient as it avoids sudden and late braking.The better your forward visibility and plan-ning, the more time you will have to antici-pate sudden changes.

SpeedThe faster you go, the greater the fuel con-

sumption and more pollution you will cre-ate. Driving at 120km/H uses up to 9%morefuel than at 100km/H and up to 15% morethan at 80km/H.Driving at a steady speed and using cruise

controlwhereappropriate during the courseof your journey will help to keep fuel con-sumption to the minimum. Sudden and ab-rupt variations in speed eats up copiousamounts of fuel and gives off increasedamounts of C02 emissions.

Speed humpsBraking sharply, accelerating, then brak-

ing sharply again for the next traffic bumpwill consume a lot more fuel than gently rid-ing the bumps at a steady pace.

GearsBeing in the correct gear is very important

if you are trying to save fuel. In some casescruising in third gear can be 25% less effi-cient than cruising in a higher gear. Chang-ing into the highest appropriate gear as soonas you can ismore preferable than changingup and down through each gear. Keeping theengine in a low gear longer than necessaryconsumes large amounts of fuel.Try to keep your engine running at its

most efficient level (for the majority of en-gines, between 2000 and 3000rpm). Youshould shift upagearwhen the engine is rev-ving at around 2500rpm for petrol enginesand 2000rpm in a diesel car. Correctlymatching engine speed and road speed, plususing the gears in the most cost effectiveway, will reduce fuel consumption and alsowear and tear.

Air conditioningThis should be used wisely and switched

off if not necessary.

Petrol price lowersOngoing oil price weakness has been bol-

stered by a strengthening in the rand/US dollar exchange rate.This according to theAutomobileAssocia-

tion (AA), in a comment on mid-month fuelprice data of the Central Energy Fund.In a statement the AA says: “The rand has

recouped someof its losses against the dollarand traded in a fairly narrow band since theend of January.“This is allowingSouthAfricans tobenefit

from lower international petroleum pricesand provides some cushioning against anyupward movement.”Petrol users are in formuch-needed relief,

the AA states. Current indicators show a de-crease of 56 to 59 cents per litre, with about11 cents attributable to gains in the rand.The AA says: “It would benefit the econo-

my considerably if the current environmentof low petroleum prices and a flatter ex-change rate were to continue.”Although the international price of diesel

climbed slightly in the first half of thismonth, the exchange rate offset some of die-sel’s gains – without the stronger exchangerate, the increase would have been 17 centsper litre instead of the 7 cents per litre cur-rently predicted.– Wheels24

CAT FIGHT AHEAD: According to Wheels24, the new Jaguar F-type SVR, the firstSVR-based Jaguar, is set to arrive in South Africa in August. What makes it special, leastcompared to the R? Jaguar claims its fastest F-type can rocket to 100km/H in just 3.7seconds and reach a top speed of 322km/H. The all-wheel drive F-type SVR Coupe ispowered by a supercharged 5.0-litre V8 capable of 423kW/700Nm. Its eight-speedtransmission gains a new calibration. It is available to order immediately for a price tagof R2.1m. PHOTO: MOTORPRESS

D6 music ‘keepsyou hopping’LOUISA STEYL

@LouNotes

“You see, the District Six music, it sooth-es your soul.”

Dave vanNiekerk knows all about themu-sic of the area – in his heyday, he appearedon stages around District Six as the drum-mer for the Paramount Dixies RhythmBand.Now in his 80s, “Oupa” as he is affection-

ately known, is keeping the spirit of DistrictSix alive by taking its sounds around theworld.“You can’t resist the music,” Oupa says.

“The rhythm, the beat – it’s so fantastic, itkeeps you hopping.”This year marks the 50th since the start

of the forced removals from District Six.Oupa is one of a few people who have been

able to move back to the area.Against the soundtrack of his favourite

Sammy Witbooi cassette, Oupa settles intohis seat in his home inPontac Street to sharesome of his memories.OupaandhisbrotherMatt played together

for the Paramount Dixies. When he wasn’tplaying with his own band he was on stagehelping other acts.“Musicwas all aroundDistrict Six,” he re-

calls. “If you didn’t hear it in the streets, youheard it in the houses or the halls.”Besides performances at local weddings

and dance halls, the Paramount Dixies oftenplayed at old age homes and even enter-tained the patients at Valkenberg Hospital.“It boosts their morale,” he says of these

special shows.Oupa fondly recalls having to perform

“Hasie” three times in one show because itwas a favourite among the patients.

The group often arranged outings, takingtheir fans with them when they went ontour. They’d travel in trucks, which weremore reliable than buses, but meant they’dhave to travel without bathroom breaks astruck drivers weren’t allowed to drivethrough the night.Oupa made a lot of memories on the road.“Going with the band and travelling pla-

ces was so fantastic, you know, we met a lotof people.”Backhomehe recalls thegangs: theGlobes

and the Jesters.“They used to fight under themselves;

they didn’t worry about me and you.”The Paramount Dixies would give them

demos at the swimming baths before theycame to watch their shows.The shows were often at one of the many

theatres in theDistrict. Oupawas fond of theStar Bioscope which he says showed all thefilm stars from abroad.

“If you wanted to know if youcan sing or dance: if you pass outat the Star Bioscope, you’re tops.”During the day he could some-

times be found near BuchannanSquare, which used to be a sweetsfactory.“We’d stand in Francis Street

and they’d throw the sweetsdown.”While the band members were

separated with the forced remov-als, they would still get togetheroccasionally to play in their back-yards.“The music goes on.”Oupa even travelled to New Zea-

land to share the music of DistrictSix.He points out that the New Zeal-

anders have always been suppor-tive ofmusicians from theDistrictsince being exposed to it throughDistrict Six: The Musical.“There’s something about Dis-

trict Six music and its vibe: youcan’t sit on your noodle, you must

shake your booty.”Oupa urges parents to share their culture

and music with their children so that themusic can live on in future generations.“The unity, the passion, the love for each

other…” this is how Oupa remembers thespirit of District Six.V Capetonians can experience this spirit with DavidKramer’s new musicalDistrict Six - Kanala at the Fu-gard Theatre until Sunday 22 May. Tickets are availableat Computicket.

Some surprising facts about debtUsing credit and being in debt is common

for most South Africans (about 55m peo-ple). According to official statistics, about23m of us are using or have used credit. De-spite credit and debt being so widely used,there are facts about debt that many peopledon’t know.

. According to the National Credit Regu-lator, of the 23m credit-active consumers, al-most 10m are in arrears with one or moreof their accounts. If you’re struggling tokeepup with your debt repayments, don’t feelalone.

. Consumers in South Africa have laws(such as the National Credit Act) that pro-tect them from being exploited. Credit can-not be granted recklessly, for instance topeople who cannot afford to pay it back, andinterest rates are capped. Even first-worldcountries such as the United Kingdom don’thave this kind of legal protection.

. South Africa has more than one creditbureau. Themajor ones are ITC (also knownas TransUnion), Experian and Compu-Scan.Consumers are entitled to one free credit re-port from each of them every year, so thatyou can check your blacklisting status.

. The Law of Prescription also protects

consumers from being harassed to makepayments for debts which have been dor-mant for more than three years, when theconsumer hasn’t acknowledged the debt andthe creditor hasn’t taken legal action. Con-sumers cannot be held responsible for pay-

ment of these debts - they mustbe written off.

. The National Credit Actprotects consumers whose ac-counts are in arrears by limitingthe amount of interest and feesthat canbe addedbya creditor. Thismeans that a creditor can’t claim thatthe R5000 you owed them three yearsago has now grown to more than R10 000because of interest and penalty fees.. The National Credit Act also protects

consumers who are over-indebted (meaningthose who cannot afford their monthly debtrepayments), by allowing them to see a debtcounsellor and apply for debt review.

. When over-indebted consumers applyfor debt review, it doesn’t matter how muchthey owe - the creditor has to negotiate withthe debt counsellor to reduce repayment in-stalments.

.Althoughour credit protection is amongthe best in the world, be warned: Over-in-debted consumers can’t hide from creditorsby ignoring them. It doesn’t matter if youdon’t open your statements or collect yourregistered mail. The law says that creditorsonlyhave to be able to show that they’ve sent

you correspondence, not that you’ve fetchedor read it.

. Consumers are protected from legal ac-tion as soon as they apply for debt review.It doesn’t matter if a debt collector has al-ready threatened to collect your car or furni-ture or auction your house - as long as thecreditor hasn’t actually already gone tocourt in a legal action against you, you canstill apply for debt review and receive thislegal protection.

. Once a consumer is under debt review,most creditorswill also accept a proposal forlower interest rates from the debt counsel-lor. This is just one of the advantages of debtreview over administration.

. Consumers who use debt review are notblacklisted forever. Once their debts havebeen settled, the debt counsellor sends a cer-tificate to the credit bureaus so that theircredit record is cleared.South Africa’s credit protection legisla-

tion is a benchmark internationally, whichmeans that we as consumers are among thebest-protected in the world. We will alwaysencounter hurdles in life, but the good newsis that there are qualified experts to help youovercome them.

JOSEPH PILLAY

Hellenic have edged out the defendingABC Motsepe League champions Glen-dene United 1-0 in a closely contested en-counter at the Idas Valley Stadium thisweekend.

The decisive goal in the match came inthe 82nd minute, following a free kick byLionel Saal that enabled top marksmanAlfonsoFraser to find the net for a superbgoal. This allowed the “Greek gods” tocome away with three valuable points.

The latest scenario sees Glendene Unit-ed and Hellenic both left with two defeatseach and both on 38 points after 18 match-es.

But the Greek gods now have their nos-es in front with a goal difference of 17goals following their 32 goals for and 15against in comparison to Bradley Au-gust’s Glendene having 33 goals scoredand 19 conceded.

Hellenic and Glendene United are now

in a tight two-horse league race, but itwould be foolish to ignore third-placedSteenberg United at 34 points.

Grassy Park United is in fourth placewith 32 points, followed by Ikapa Sport-ing with 31 points.

They all have a chance of wearing theleague crown and an opportunity of strik-ing it big at the promotion national play-offs for a slot in the national first divi-sion.

Nevertheless, coach Theo Hempe’sGrassy Park United side continued theirgood formand securedawell-deserved 2-1win against neighbours Steenberg Unit-ed ina southern suburbsderbyat theSoloStreet sports venue.V The full ABC Motsepe League results: Hellenic1; Glendene United 0; Grassy Park United 2, Steen-berg United 1; Ikapa Sporting 3, The Magic 1; MilanoUnited 3, Ramblers 1; Zizwe United 3, RC Athletico1; Ajax Cape Town 0, Barcelona 0; Mitchell’s PlainUnited 2, Black Cats 0; Crystal Palace 2, AtlanticNacional 0.

Westridge holdoff SilvertreeSEAN CAMPBELL

After taking a 4-0 lead at the top of thefourth inning, Westridge Yankees kepttheir nerve to hold off Silvertree in

their 4-2 win in the BAWP Major League atGroenewald sports fields in Southfield onSaturday.

Yankees jumped to their 4-0 leadafter scor-ing one run in the third and three runs inthe fourth inning. Silvertree camebackwithone run in the fourth and one run in theeighth inning.

Yankees’ breakaway runs in the fourth in-ning were scored on two down with a walkand three consecutive two-base hits off Sil-vertree pitcher Dean Jacobs.

Silvertree had a chance to come back intothe game in the bottom of the eighth inningwith bases loaded and no outs. They onlymanaged to score a single run.

Jacobs threw for five innings, concedingfive hits, four walks and striking out fourhitters.KeeganWatson relievedhim for fourinnings, one hit, a walk and striking outthree hitters.

Jayson Ripepi threw for Yankees and re-corded his sixth win of the season. He threwfor nine innings, conceded nine hits and twowalks and struck out eight hitters.

Silvertree’s best hitters were Marvin Ma-honey (3 for 4) and Ashley Julies (3 for 5).Most of their hitswere recordedwithno run-ners on the bases.

Veon Rix (2 for 4), Wesley Rushin (1 for 3)and Ripepi (1 for 3) were Yankees’ best hit-ters.

The loss keeps Silvertree locked jointly atthe bottom of the league with Crusaders,who lost 11-4 to Athlone.

Giants a step closer to promotionMaitland Giants have taken a step closer

to winning promotion to the Major Leaguenext season after they beat Lansdowne Ea-gles 8-2 at the Kensington sports ground onSaturday.

After scoring a run each in the first in-nings, both teams settled down, with the re-spective pitching and fielding units doingwell. It was only at the bottom of the sixthinning thatGiants broke the gameopenwithsix runs coming from five hits (3x2B) andtwo errors.

Jaydee Thorne (3 for 4), Sergia Gamba (2for 3) and Kyle Inglis (2 for 5) batted well forGiants. Lansdowne had two scattered hitsfor the game.

Lucien Swartz started the pitching for

Lansdowne and did very well up to the sixthinning, when Giants scored the crucial sixruns. He threw 5.1 innings, conceding 10hits, fourwalks and striking out fourhitters.

Thorne threw seven strong innings, con-ceding two hits, two walks, one hit by pitchand striking out 10 hitters. Matt Soren fromthe United States closed out the game for Gi-ants, striking out five of the six hitters hefaced.

Giants travel to their closest rivals Vander Stel next week. Van der Stel narrowlybeat Devonshire 4-3 on Saturday.

Bothasig consolidate top spotAfter comfortably beating Durbanville

10-1 at Durbanville sports complex on Satur-day, Bothasig consolidated their top spot inthe Major League.

Pitching by Bothasig’s Lucas Steinleinfrom Germany (five innings, two hits andnine strikeouts), Brad Erasmus (two in-nings, two hits) and Jared Elario (two in-nings, one hit and two strikeouts) made hit-ting extremely difficult for Durbanville.They also conceded no walks.

Darren Smith, after striking out in hisfirst at bat, with 2 for 4, was the only hitterto deal comfortably with the top class Botha-sig pitching.

Durbanville started with the experiencedGavin Jefferies who pitched for seven in-nings, allowing 12 hits and striking out fourhitters.

He was replaced by Damian Perkins whothrew for two innings, allowing twohits, twowalks and striking out one hitter. Theywerebadly let down by the Durbanville fieldingwhich made six errors.

A’s, Falcons meet in softball finalJOSEPH PILLAY

This year’s Cape Town Softball Associa-tionKnockout Cup finalwill be contest-ed between last season’s finalists – the

defending champions Falcons and Glen-thorn A’s at Turfhall Stadium on 13 March.This after both teamswon their respective

semi-final matches against Tantasport andWestridge Yankees at Turfhall this week-end.Sunday’s semi-final between Falcons and

Tantasport developed into an exciting show-down in which both teams were kept score-less in their first six innings.Falcons then scored four earned runs

thanks to Nicky Jones, Aamarah Larney,Chanté Hatting and Kelly Julie in the deci-sive seventh innings that enabled them tobeat Tanta 4-0.In this particularly nerve-jangling con-

test, Falcons smacked 10 hits off pitcherRox-anne Albertyn with Hatting’s 2-3 the pick ofthe batting stats for Falcons.On the other end of the spectrum, Jones

starred for Falcons on the pitching mound,facing 24 batters. She fanned two batters andallowed just two hits, namely to RoxanneAl-bertyn and Kathrin van Boom (each 1-3).

A’s trounce YankeesIn the featured semi-final Glenthorn A’s

trounced Westridge Yankees 5-1 after scor-ing four runs (1 and 3) in their first two turnsat bat that pretty much laid the foundationof their success.Making costly errors at crucial stages of

the game (seven on-field errors to be exact)proved to be Yankees’ undoing.

Despite having their coaches NazeemDul-vie and Natasha de Klerk attempting to in-stil some confidence in their players, veryfew batters could get on top of Lauren Mul-der’s fierce and shrewd pitching.Mulder struck out five of the 24 batters

faced and gave up five hits, which wereshared between Candice Bull (2-3), ShinayErasmus (1-2), Nuraan Williams and GlynisKoopman (1-3 each).For Westridge Yankees Megan Cable was

on the mound for five innings, facing 25 bat-

ters. She conceded two base-on-balls andearned two fanned victims while surrender-ing seven hits.. The men’s Major League final will be be-tween Devonshire Rovers and WestridgeYankees after Yankees’ 7-6 win over Hamil-tons Green in the tie-breaker. The highlightwas three home runs in a single inning forthe Mitchell’s Plain side.In the other semi-final Devonshire Rovers

wiped out Hamiltons Black to record a 7-0shut-out win.
