Outcry follows heftyelectricity tariff hikes>> And the Msunduzi municipality has been ordered by energy authorities to correct their mistakeNOKULUNGA NGOBESE
CITY’s business owners will behappy tohear that theNationalElectricity Regulator of South
Africa(Nersa)hasorderedthemunic-ipalitytoreversetariffhikes thatwereexorbitantly increased late last year.
The decision comes amid threatsby small businesses to close down asthey cannot keep up with the 900%increase.
Although the municipality claimsto have been ordered by Nersa toincrease its tariffs, it has beenrevealedthatitwasapplyingitstariffsincorrectly.
According to reports by theWitness newspaper, Pietermaritz-burgChamberofBusiness (PCB)CEOMelanie Veness read out a letter onthe reversal, sent to her by Nersa, toa packedmeeting at the Chamber onMonday.
The letter written by Nersa’s CEOPhindileBaleni reads: “It has come toNersa’s attention that the MsunduziMunicipality is not implementingNersa approved tariffs for the follow-ing: Domestic High (80 A), DomesticHigh (100A),
Commercial conventional singlephase and conventional three phase.The basic charges that Nersaapproved for these tariff categories ismade up of the basic charges and thenet ampere charges applied by themunicipality.However, in thecurrentyear, the municipality implementedthe basic charges and net amperecharges separately, resulting indouble counting of the net amperecharges”.
The letter further said that themunicipality is required to effectthe necessary corrections in itsimplemented tariffs.
Speaking to Echo about the deci-sion, small business owner PrettyMadela of PO Academy said that thedecision came at the right time be-cause shewas on the verge of closingdown.
“These charges were a bit unfair,taking into account that this wasaddedontopof thecurrentaccountofR800 that I paymonthly, andwith thetariff increases, I had to pay an extraR900,which is toomuch. Somesmallbusiness owners have closed downbecause of this. We appeal to themunicipality togiveus thecorrect fig-ures,” she said.
NormanMkhize of Normans driv-
ing school shared the same senti-ments, saying that the hikeswere toomuch.
DA councillor Megan Chetty saidthatNersa’s decision alsomeans thatthe municipality will have to go backto the drawing board when it comestotheflawedbudgetthat itpassedlastyear.
“Wearerequesting themunicipal-itytoplaceanimmediatemoratoriumon the escalated bills and reimbursethose businesses who have alreadypayed timeously.
A 900% increase in electricitywould have killed local businessesand jobs,” he said.

Jika Joe truce afterxenophobic war>> The fighting sides have buried the hatchet and the national foreigners are back
NOKULUNGA NGOBESE>>[email protected]
THE foreign nationals who fled the JikaJoe informal settlement last week in thewake of attacks on them have been
reconciled and reunited with the community.The reintegration follows an impassioned
plea by them to be let back into the area afterabout 50 foreign nationals were chased awayfollowing the death of Mzwakhe Kheswa, whois alleged to have been murdered by one ofthem.
Kheswa (24) was found dead, coveredwithgrass, just outside the informal settlement onTuesday after being missing since Saturday. Itis alleged that Kheswa was drunk, and wasreturning home with his two other friends,whentheyfoughtwithoneoftheforeignnation-als over a sack of potatoes.
It is further alleged that a group of foreignnationals then chased them, and the twosurviving friends managed to escape. Thefollowing day, community members calledforeign nationals to the local ground anddemanded that they leave.
Foreign national Patrick Ali said that afterbeing chased away, they were forced to sleep
outsidealocalmosqueonThursdayandFriday,and others had moved to find temporaryaccommodation in other areas.
“Some of us were coming back home fromwork in the evening only to find that we wereno longer welcome. Some of our tuckshopswere destroyed in the process and even ourclothes were taken away,” said Ali.
Hesaidthatheisgladthattheissuehasbeensorted and they have since returned to their
SAPS spokesperson Colonel Jay Naickerconfirmed the incident, saying that no visibleinjurieswere foundonthedeceased,andapostmoterm would be conducted to determine thecause of death.
“Police are continuing to conduct regularpatrols in the area. Furthermore, the SAPSPietermaritzburg public order policing unitand other units are on standby, should anyfurther attacks occur”.

Why I am falling in love with
SOCIALISM>> In light of the highcost of living, as aparent, I am startingto like it.
IMUSThavesurprisedmylatepoetbrotherMlungisiMkhizewhowasan unrepentant socialist, when I
made it known to him that I did notagree with socialism as a youngerperson.
Well, I have always thought ofmyself as a pragmatic person, andthat means I have always felt thatsocialismwas not in linewith humannature, which I saw as inherentlyselfish and corrupt.
It did not matter to me then thatmy brother was a close friend of aSouth African Communist Party(SACP) leader, the now NationalMinister of Education, BladeNzimande, during Nzimande’s dayswhen heworked for the thenUniver-sityofNatalat theEthekwinicampus.
Ineverusedto likesocialism,even
though the person who introducedme to these –isms properly, mysecondary school commerce teacher,MrsThandoMokoana,was ahealthyfence–sitter. In other words, she didnot take sides with any of theseeconomic systems when she taughtus economics as a subject as early asstandard seven atmy dream–school,Amakholwa High, in the greaterEdendale area.
Fortunately forme,my latebroth-er and intellectual darling did notimposehisviewsonme.Hewasquiteliberal in that he encouraged criticalthinking. He liked to cite historicalfigures who had used capitalistmethods to enable their countries tobecome viable and be better able toshoulder the responsibilities oflaunching socialist programmes.
But nowadays when I hear that acertaincompanyhasbeenshutdownandbreadwinnerswhosupportfami-lies are going to be without jobs, Ibecome depressed and consequentlyunimpressed with capitalism, or thefree enterprise system, for being likean over–rated prostitute.
When I hear my government’scurrent national minister of health,AaronMotsoaledi,criticisingtheveryhighpricestheprivatesectorischarg-ing for medicine in this capitalistcountry, I become very disappointedwith the free enterprise system.
For instance, Iwas not impressedatallwhenIhad to forkoutR5000 foraminor operation in a private hospi-tal over a year ago. My medical aidonly paid just over R1 000 of the totalR6 000 that was charged for remov-
ing a rather small lump off my chest.I wondered when my government’sNationalHealth Insurance (NHI)planwill begin to touch my life.
Imustsaythat itexcitedmeagreatdeal when I was younger to hear of aquote from a European free enter-prise promoter, Adam Smith, whichread,“Throughhigherpricesweshallbe buying a better quality of life.”
I know that one of the things thatupsetmegreatly about socialismandcommunismwas the knowledge thatpoliticalpartybosses inMoscow,whowere in charge of the Union of SovietSocialist Republics (USSR), wereallegedly corrupt and greedy.
Hence, when Mikhail Gorbachevbecame president of the USSR andfreed that part of the Eastern blockfromwhatwasgenerallyperceivedas
the shackles of socialism and rigidcentralism which saw many coun-tries under the USSR becoming trulyfree for the first timeduringhispresi-dency, I was in awe.
IreallythoughttheWesthadalltheanswers to the world’s challenges.Alas, I was wrong. I do not think thatway anymore.
Asaparent Iknowhowheavilywepayforfood,education,health,trans-port or soaringpetrol prices, housingrent or bond, municipal services etc.My late brother,Mlu,must be smilingin his grave – the Freedom Charterthathecherishedusedtosoundideal-istic and almost unreal to me when Iwas younger. As a parent, I amstarting to like it.

NGABE kungcono ukuba osopolitiki nomaabaholi bezombusazwe bahlale bebangisana ngokwenza izinto ezinhle, ngezinhloso ezinhle.Angingabazi nakancane ukuthi ukuba baba nalo mdlandla wokwenza izinto ezinhlengesikhathi kuqala umbuso wentandoyeningi ngo1994, izinga lentuthuko ngabeliphezulu kakhulu.Ake ucabange nje ukuthi uma amaqembuezepolitiki engamane akhele abantu izindlu ngaphandle kokulindela uHulumeni, ngabe bangaki abantu abangenazo izindlu.
Nanxa ingeke iphele imijondolonoma imikhukhu ngenxa yezi
zathu ezahlukene,ngikholwa wukuthi ngabe
ababaningi ngale ndlelaababaningi ngayo aban
tu abahlala emijondolonasemikhukhwini.
Inkinga isekuthini izinhloso zalabaabagcina ngokuklwebhana nokushawo
dana uma bakhelaabantu izindlu njengoba
sibonile kulezi zinsuku ezedlule,
kusuke kungesikhona ukwenza okuhle kubantu abahluphekayo, kodwa kungezinyeizinhloso.Yebo, bayasizakala labo abakhelwa izindlu ngoba asikezwa ukuthi bazokhokhiswangazo. Ngakhoke kufanele babongwe laboabazakhayo. Kodwa okwenza kube nzimaukubabonga ukuthi kubona nengane encane ukuthi inhloso yabo akukhona ukusiza abahluphekile.Imibuzo efika ngokushesha uma kucuts
hungulwa indaba kaMnu. Julius Malema,ngethi luqhamukaphi lolu ‘thando’ olungaka lokuthi abone umndeni ohluphekayoodinga indlu eNkandla? Abekho yini abadinga izindlu ngakubo? Nakhona eNkandlayini edale kube ngumndeni oseduzekomuzi kamengameli wezwe, uMnu.Jacob Gedleyihlekisa “J.Z.” Zuma?Kukhona mhlambe ozophendulangokuthi yilowo nalowo unelungelo lokusiza laphoethanda khona. Kulungile.Kodwa omunye umbuzooqhamukayo uthi ngesikhathi esamemeza kuzweizwe lonke ukuthi yena uzimisele ngokufela uMsholozi,yayingekho yini imindeni edinga izindlu? Yini lolu
‘thando’ luvuthwe
sekusondele ukhetho?Khona manjalo sesizwa kubikwa ukuthi
eSeshego, kwesikaMnu. Malema,sekukhona amalungu eANC afuna ukwakhela umndeni ohluphekayo indlu eduzekwesithabathaba somuzi owakhiwanguMnu. Malema. Ngempela ngempelaumlabalaba wani wonke lo?
Noma kukuhle ukusiza abahluphekayo,akusikhona nje ukuzibizela ulaka lukaNkulunkulu ukulwa ngabantu bakhe abahluphekayo? Zizoba khona nje izibusiso kulezizenzo zabo noma kuzofana nokuthelaamanzi emhlane wedada? Sibuza le mibu
zo nje ngoba yimasizobona iz
inhlobo
ezahlukene zothando dadewethu kababa.Uma sibheka uhlangothi lwesenzo esihle
sikaMnu. Malema, kuyaxaka ukubona labaabamxakazisile ngoba bethi akayitholanga imvume. Yini eyenza abantu bayiqikelele kangaka indaba yokuthola imvume yokwenza into enhle. Asiyibuyisele ecelenikancane nje ipolitiki.Bona nje babeyithole kuphi imvume yo
kumvimba bamshaye. Asikaze sizwe futhiukuthi abantu bayaye bacele imvume umabefuna ukususa uthuthuva noma ukonelaphansi impahla. Mhlambe laba abavimbeuMnu. Malema bebefuna ukuzakhela igama kuMengameli Zuma, kodwa ngeshwalabo, uMsholozi usihlabe wasihlikiza lesosenzo sabo.
Ukubeke kwacaca uMsholozi ukuthiakukho muntu okufanele avinjwe umaekhankasa. Sengathi lokhu kungangenakugxile ezingqondweni zomphakathingoba ngeke kwemukeleke nangengoziukuthi kuphinde kube khona isigameko esifuze esikaMnu. Malema.Cishe kuthokozise wonke umuntu waseNingizimu Afrika ukuzwa ukuthi ingxenyeyomhlahlandlela weANC, eyokuqinisekisa ukuthi izikhungo zemali, ikakhulukaziamabhange, ayazibuyekeza izindlelazokusiza abantu ngezimali zokusungulaamabhizinisi.Uthe uMsholozi kunemibiko yokuthi abantu baya emabhange bephethe amabusiness plan amahle kodwa bangalutholiusizo ngoba kufuneka izibambiso (collateral noma isecurity) ezinkulu.
Sivumelana ngokuphelele noMsholozingoba kunenqwaba yabafundi ababhuquza emakhaya bebe benemibono ephusile yamabhizinisi kodwa iphelele obalangoba bengenazo lezi zibambiso ezidingeka emabhange.
Kuyaye kube buhlungu uma sebekhalangokuthi imalimboleko abayitholangakodwa babone imibono yamabhizinisi aboisisetshenziswa kwezinye izindawo.
Umfutho wokwenza okuhle awungavumbuki uma sekufike ukhetho kuphela

Igesund’s futurewith Bafana
