Woensdag, 16 Julie 2014 | Tel: 021 910 6500 | e-pos: [email protected]| www.tygerburger.co.za EERSTERIVIER RICHARD ROBERTS @richardjohn_rj T he ongoing strike by workers in the me- tal and steel industries has had a severe impact – both operationally and finan- cially – on the factories in the Blackheath in- dustrial area. Members of the National Union of Metal- workers of South Africa (Numsa) have been on strike for nearly three weeks, which has cost some companies thousands of rands. Steve Scott, the sales manager at the wire products manufacturer, Allens Meshco in Wimbledon Road, Blackheath said that over 180 members of staff are currently on strike at the factory. “The strike has had a terrible impact on our business,” he says, with some customers even opting to collect their own stock. “We have told them that they do so at their own risk.” A domino effect He added that it is still difficult to say what the financial impact will be on the company, but that the strike will “obviously” have a impact. “We make about R15 million a month in turnover. The strike will cause a major financial loss.” Apart from the effect on factories, he pre- dicts that the strike will have a “domino ef- fect” on the entire industry. “It effects engineering companies, con- struction companies, civil and steelworks companies everything. . . it is a major pro- blem. “The entire building industry is going to come to a standstill, they can’t continue like this,” he says. However, the situation at Al- lens Meshco has been improved by em- ploying several line managers to operate the machinery. “We want the strike to finish. We are still going to feel the loss for a long time. “The sad thing about this is that some fac- tory workers want to work, they have car payments, school fees and bonds to pay.” The striking workers currently receive no wages or salaries. ‘Don’t want to strike’ “I feel for them,” Scott continued. Colcab, a factory near to Allens Meshco, has also been severely affected. Here they manufacture refrigerated dis- play cabinets. Keith Reeves, the director of human resources at Colcab, said that several of the company’s workers have said that they do not want to go on strike. “Some of them did not want to strike but said they have no choice. There has been intimidation, but nothing yet at Colcab,” he said. Reeves says that a truck was torched in the industrial area last Friday. “We absolutely want this strike to come to an end,” he affirmed. Around 240 of the 260 workers have downed tools. In terms of operations, the factory has co- me to a complete halt. “There is very little happening in terms of production. “Financially we do not know what the im- pact will be yet, but we already lost one job worth R120 000.

NUMSA STRIKE RAGES ON: LOCAL FACTORIES AFFECTED Workers stay at home Two-year-old Raziq Wyeth (front) from Wesbank was part of a small group of children who took part in a peacefull protest in the area yesterday morning. The protest follows the shooting and wounding of a five-year-old girl in Marloth Street, Wesbank on Monday night. Little Brooklyn Koopman, the victim, according to the ER24 Emergency Services, was shot and wounded in the back. She was taken to the Red Cross Children’s Hospital in Rondebosch for medical treatment. The protest on Tuesday was organised by Joseph Adams, media liaison for the Mfuleni Community Police Forum.

“Fortunately most of our customers are un-derstanding, but if the strike continues we donot know what will happen,” said Reeves.
The company is being kept informed aboutthe negotiations through the employer’s re-presentative, the Steel and Engineering In-dustries Federation of Southern Africa (Seif-sa), Reeves said.
Numsa members demand a salary increaseof 10% with a list of additional demands. Em-ployers are offering between 8% and 10%.
“We normally have a three year agreement,but now the workers are demanding an incre-ase for one year and they want to come backfor another increase,” Reeves explained.
Vuyo Lufele, regional secretary for Numsa,said they will either settle for one year at 10%or a three year agreement for no less than10%.
“We want double digits,” Lufele said.He said negotiations between the union and
employers are still underway in Johannes-burg.

Hy herwin om geld te verdien, maar ookom Wesbank skoon te hou.
“Eintlik moet hulle my daarvoor be-taal,” skerts Jannie Roberts van Vogel-vleistraat, Wesbank, wat al sedert 1999met die intrapslag rommel begin herwinen verkoop het.
“Ek het van jongs af begin herwin, toeek nog in Ravensmead gebly het,” het hyvertel. Hy het ook op ’n vroeë stadium be-sef hoe lonend dit is.
“Ek het besef om te recycle is die moeitewerd, ek verdien meer as wat ek by ’n baassou verdien het. Ek is my eie baas,” hethet hy laggend gesê.
VersamelJannie versamel glas, sagte- en harde
plastiek. “So hou ek die plek skoon.”Jannie werk alleen en besit net ’n trek-
waentjie. “Ek sukkel soms met vervoer,dis al probleem,” het hy bygevoeg.
Hy vra soms mense om die herwindegoedere, wat hy in groot wit sakke stoor,te vervoer. “Hulle neem dit na fabrieke inBellville-Suid, Parow en Eersterivier,”het hy verduidelik.
Vir elke kilogram sagte plastiek wordhy R2 betaal. “Vir die plastiekkanne kryek R1,50,” het hy gespog. En vir ’n kilo-gram glas, word hy 20c betaal.
Jannie begin soggens vroeg. “Ek val al04:00 in die pad, dan tel ek rommel langsdie kanaal op. Op vullisverwyderingsdaekrap ek deur die dromme,” het hy gesê.
Hy vat die rommel dan na sy erf waarhy dit uitsorteer.
Agter sy erf staan die wit sakke en swartdromme volgepak met glas en plastiek.
WerkladingAf en toe kry hy ’n helpende hand om
die werklading te verlig.“Ek bly alleen en wil eintlik my erf toe-
maak.“Die jongens het al twee van my hekke
gesteel en daar is vantevore ook van myplastiek gesteel.
“Die outjies klouter sommer oor die
muur.“Ai, hulle het my seergemaak,” het hy
gesê.Selfs sy trekwaentjie is al gesteel.“Gelukkig het ek dit teruggekry,” het
Jannie gesê.“Ek is net dankbaar vir die vriendelike
polisie wat soggens verby ry en vra of ekalright is,” het hy bygevoeg.
Jannie is ‘ou hand’ as dit byherwinning in Wesbank kom
Jannie Roberts van Wesbank herwin al vir 14 jaar rommel soos glas en plastiek wat hy danverkoop. Hy hou sodoende die gebied skoon, het hy gesê. FOTO: RICHARD ROBERTS

The stories of local authors may soon be fill-ing the shelves of the Elsies River library.
The facility launched the My Story/MyCommunity/My Dreams project at the endof June to motivate youngsters to writetheir own stories.
Senior librarian Julian Schroeder couldnot contain his excitement as adults andmore than 40 learners from surroundingschools waited eagerly for the first work-shop to begin.
Leading them through these first steps ofputting pen to paper was dynamic authorand poet Diana Ferrus who shared some ofher own experiences before leading them in-to their first exercise.
Learners showed their creativity andshared a few words about someone specialin their lives. Some were shy and had to becoaxed by Ferrus, but it was clear the icewas broken.
“Do you see how your words, in just oneparagraph, can touch people?” an excitedFerrus asked. “Did you hear the differentstyles? Some were serious, some funny, butit is all your own words and your own sto-ries coming to life.”
There were smiles all around as a newbatch of writers started their creative jour-ney. “I never expected this response,” saysSchroeder. Now I am more excited than ev-er. This group will be meeting once a monthfor a year with various writers mentoringthem each month.
“The idea was to form this core group thatwill commit themselves to the project. Atthe end of the 12 months we want to publishtheir efforts.”
At the end of the session Ferrus could alsonot contain her excitement.
“The workshop was very informativearound the writing and reading abilities ofthe participants.
“They were very coherent and very clearon what they were writing and readingback. After this I don’t believe that our chil-dren are such poor readers and writers.
“Creative writing workshops could be-come an excellent tool through which learn-ers’ reading and writing skills are en-hanced. These kinds of opportunitiesshould be duly explored. I look forward tothe next meeting with the learners,” shesaid.V For further information about the project Schroeder can be contacted on 021 933 8767 or email juli[email protected].

Drie gesinne van Beverley Park, Eer-sterivierhet ’nweeknadathulwendy-huise afgebrand het, nog nie die rom-
mel en oorblyfsels van hul kosbare besit-tings opgeruim nie.Die drie wendyhuise was geleë agter ’n
steenhuis in Stratfordweg.Elton Tatchell (37), een van dié wie se
wendyhuise in die slag gebly het, het gesêhy is dankbaar dat niemand in die vlamme-hel omgekom het nie, ondanks die feit datalles verwoes is.Die brand het Woensdag 2 Julie om-
streeks 10:15 uitgebreek agter ’n steenhuislangs Stratfordweg.“Ek was in my wendy besig om ’n film te
kyk. . . ek het niks vermoed nie, dit was ’ngewone oggend soos al die ander.“ ’n Ruk later toe hoor ek my ma se stem.
Sy het geskreeu. Dit was ’n ernstige skreeu.Toe ek buite kom, het ek die vlamme langsmy huis opgemerk,” het Elton vertel.
Jonger broerDie brand het by sy jonger broer, Neville
(34), se wendyhuis langsaan ontstaan.Elton het uit sy huis gestorm, die tuin-
slang gegryp en die vlamme probeer blus.Hy wou verhoed dat dit verder versprei,
maar sy pogings was tevergeefs.“Hoe meer ek nat spuit, hoe erger het dit
geraak. Ons moes selfs die kragboks afska-kel,” het Elton verduidelik.Die brand het na sy wendyhuis en toe na
’n derdewendyhuis (dié van sy suster, Vero-nica) versprei. Die bure langsaan het ookdie gesin probeer help.“Dit was so erg, ek wou in ’n stadium
moed opgee.“Die vensters het gebars, my televisiestel
ook. Die kinders se klere, basies alles isweg,” het hy gesê.
Sy bed, klerekas, televisiestel, die kindersse skoolgoed, sowel as die gesin se DVD-spe-ler, tasse, video’s en toiletware is vernietig.“Alles het uitgebrand,” het Elton, wat sy
wendyhuis met sy vrou en kind deel, gesê.Aubrey Tatchell (67), sy pa, het gesê hy is
dankbaar dat sy drie kinders en kleinkin-ders leef.
KleindogterNet sy een kleindogter is lig beseer. “Haar
arm en hand is beseer,” het die oupa vertel.Aubrey het gesê hy is diep seergemaak
oor die voorval.“Ek hou my sterk en kalm ter wille van
die kinders; ek is al een wat hulle kan moedinpraat en kan troos.”Elton enVeronicawoon tans by hul ouers
aan die voorkant. Neville het voorlopig byfamilielede elders in die gebied ingetrek.Dis nog onduidelik wat die brand veroor-
saak het, maar die gesinne vermoed dat ’nkortsluiting dit veroorsaak het. Dít glo om-dat ’n gloeilamp in Neville se wendyhuisontplof het.Die gesinne het reeds boumateriaal by die
StadKaapstad se rampbestuur-afdeling ont-vang.Hulle word ook deur inwoners van die
woonbuurt en gemeentelede gehelp.
Net rommel bly oor návernietigende brand

Dis onwaarskynlik dat ’n sopkombuis diehooftrekke op die BBC se nuus gaan haal,maar in Kleinvlei word só ’n kombuis tenminste uit ’n vraghouer bedryf met dié nuus-organisasie se kenteken daarop.
Groentesop word gereeld uit die bloedrooivraghouer, met die bewoording BBC News/The Box daarop by die Laerskool RR Franks,uitgedeel – iets waarvoor die goedhartigesopmaker en gemeenskapswerker, Anneli-ne Jacobs, stigter van die Children’s WorldSoup Kitchen, verantwoordelik is.
Die skeepsvraghouer is op 25 Maart 2010na die gebied gebring.
Children’s World, ’n organisasie sonderwinsbejag, bied hulp aan kinders, jeugdigessowel as bejaardes in die gebied, het Anne-line gesê.
“Ek het voorheen in ’n spreekkamer ge-werk en saans by die huis kos gemaak en ditdan in die gemeenskap uitgedeel.
“Ek het seker so twee jaar van die huis afgewerk,” het Anneline vertel.
Sy het briewe uitgestuur om donasies tebekom toe Breadline Africa, ’n plaaslike lief-dadigheidsorganisasie, haar gehelp het.
“Ek was onder die indruk dis vir brood,maar toe ontvang ek die container.
“Ek was excited, dis wat my hart begeerhet. . . ’n plek waar ek kon werk en virklomp mense kan kos gee,” het sy vertel.
Die vraghouer is by die laerskool afgelaai.Anneline werk sedertdien vanaf dié perseel.
Van toe af was hulle sommer baie bedry-wig, het sy gesê.
Die BBC-vraghouer, wat volgens haar ge-bruik is om katkos op die see te vervoer, hetegter nie die lang vingers van misdadigersin dié dwelm- en bende-geteisterde gebiedvrygespring nie.
Anneline vertel: “Ek het in ’n stadium be-gin moed opgee. Daar is telekemale by die
plek ingebreek.‘‘Die krane is verwyder; die vensters ge-
steel en die koper-handvatsels is weg. Jyraak so moedeloos.”
Selfs die besems en mop is vantevore ge-steel.
“Ek wil dit nou permanent oop hou,” hetsy gesê.
Anneline het in ’n stadium ook gesukkelom donasies te bekom, maar ontvang dees-dae skenkings by The Food Bank in Eppingen ander donateurs.
“Ek kook self, ek doen dit soos ek dit bydie huis sou doen,” het sy glimlaggend gesê.
Anneline maak gewoonlik drie maal ’nweek twee potte groentesop en groentekos.
Hier beteken ‘BBC’ warm sop

“Dit voed 40 tot 50 kinders, volwassenesook.
“Dit laat my goed voel om kos te skenk.Daar is regtig ’n nood in die gebied, veral on-der die kinders. ’n Grootmens kan by ie-mand se deur gaan aanklop vir kos, maar nie’n kind nie,” het Anneline, ’n ma van vyf,gesê.
’n Inwoner van Wesbank kla oor dieskade wat onbekendes aan sy hei-ning en eiendom aanrig – glo om met
’n kortpad tot in Delft uit te kom.Jeffrey Botha, die huiseienaar van Thees-
combestraat, Wesbank sê hy is raadop.Jeffrey het 12 jaar gelede daar ingetrek.“Sedertdien is daar al drie keer inge-
breek. Hier was ’n heining agter my erf,maar die jongens breek dit af,” het hy gesê.
’n Gedeelte van sy palissade-heining is af-gebreek sodat mense makliker toegang oor’n kanaal tot by die R300-snelweg kan kryen sodoende tot in Delft kan kom.
“Die jongens spring dit stukkend. Ek kanniks daaromtrent doen nie.”
Stukke van die heining is ook verwyderom as skroot te verkoop.
“Party mense kom hier deur om hulle ge-mors agter my huis te stort, ander om totby die brug te kom en partymaal ook ommense langs die R300 te beroof,” het Jeffreyvertel.
Hy het al voorheen mense daaroor gekon-fronteer, maar is met ’n vuurwapen gedreig.
“Die polisie was al hier. Ek weet ongeluk-kig nie wie die heining aldag afbreek nie.Dit gebeur bedags wanneer ek nie tuis isnie.
“Ek het gevra dat die polisie hier meermoet patrolleer,” het hy bygevoeg.
Jeffrey het gesê hy leef in vrees en dat hydit snags nie eers uit sy eie huis waag nie.
Jeffrey, ’n diabeet, moet Dinsdae by diedaghospitaal in Delft sy voorskrif gaan af-haal. “Dan stap ek nie eers hier oor die ka-naal nie, ek stap padlangs,” het die 49-jarigegesê.
Agter sy huis is die rommel, waaronderstukkies houtborde, beskadigde dakplate enpapier verlede week nog duidelik sigbaar.
’n Hout-heining wat hy opgerig het, is ookafgebreek. “Ek weet nie meer wat om tedoen nie. Ek was al by die Mfuleni-polisie-kantoor om te vra wat ek aan die situasiekan doen. Ek is aangesê om ’n saak te maak,maar teen wie moet ek ’n saak maak?” wouhy weet.
Hy het gesê drie van sy honde is ook aldoodgemaak.
“Dit lyk of ek nie in die plek bestaan nie,hulle doen net wat hulle wil met my,” hethy gesê.

RICHARD ROBERTS@richardjohn_rj
Sewe huisgesinne van Kleinvlei is keelvolvir ’n stormwater-drein wat jaarliks oorwintermaande oorvloei en gevolglik hulhuise en wendyhuise laat oorstroom.
Die drein is geleë oorkant die huise inGemsbokstraat, Kleinvlei.
Volgens die inwoners stroom reënwateroor die pad tot in hul huise en dan tot agterin die erf waar daar in sommige gevallewendyhuise opgerig is.
Sophie Kannemeyer, gemeenskapswer-ker en een van die omgekrapte inwoners,het gesê verskeie klagtes is al by die muni-sipaliteit aangemeld, maar die probleemis nog nie opgelos nie.
“Ons het uitgevind die drein is eintlikstukkend,” het Sophie gesê. Die sewe erweis ’n week gelede erg oorspoel ná die na-week se swaar reën.
Sophie se suster Katrina Mentoor watagter in die erf in ’n wendyhuis bly, soweldie wendyhuis van Sophie se dogter, Jas-mine Hofman en haar man, is verledeweek oorspoel. Met TygerBurger se be-soek twee dae later, was die vloer van bei-de wendyhuise nog taamlik klam.
Sophie se buurman, Jan Theron wat ook’n wendyhuis besit, het ’n sandwal voorsy huis gebou om die reënwater te keer.
“Ek moes die walletjie maak toe die wa-ter styg. Dit help nie eintlik veel nie, want
as die water kom, dan oorspoel die heleplek,” het hy gesê. Jan woon al vier jaarin die wendyhuis agter sy ma, ClarinaTheron, se steenhuis.
“Ons was al tot by die raadslid, maarniks het nog gebeur nie. Ons mure is ge-kraak as gevolg van die water, ons klere,skoene en alles raak nat,” het Clarina ge-sê. Die inwoners eis dat die drein herstelword. “Die raad moet die pype vervang ensypaadjies bou. Die nat toestand veroor-saak siektes soos TB en asma,” het Sophieverduidelik. Volgens haar is die drein ver-stop weens rommel daarin. “Die pype isook al vrot,” het Sophie bygevoeg.
Benedicta van Minnen, waarnemendeburgemeesterskomiteelid van vervoer,het gesê amptenare van die Stad Kaapstadhet bevind dat die probleem wat Sophie er-vaar, veroorsaak word deur haar eiendomwat laer geleë is as die straat voor die huis.“Dit beteken dat die reënwater nie natuur-lik van die eiendom af tot in die stormwa-terpyp kan wegspoel nie.
“Dit wil ook voorkom asof die stormwa-ter uit die pad se rigting dié eiendom enaangrensende eiendomme binnevloeiwanneer dit swaar reën.
Sy het gesê amptenare wat die probleemondersoek het, het bevestig dat die storm-waterpyp in die straat nie verstop is nie.
Die Stad beplan egter om die inlaat vansekere vangriool-stelsels te vergroot wathopelik die probleem sal help oplos.
Gesinne keelvol oor drein
A police officer stationed at the BellvilleSouth police station appeared in the BlueDowns Magistrate Court last Friday oncharges of rape and sexual assault.
It is alleged that the 40-year-old WarrantOfficer raped and sexually assaulted twominors, both 14-year-old males, at the policestation.
Ten counts of rapeIt was the officer’s third court appearan-
ce since his arrest on Wednesday 2 July.The officer, who cannot be named due to
the sensitivity of the case, is being chargedwith 10 counts of statutory rape and eight
counts of sexual assault.In a statement released earlier, the Inde-
pendent Police Investigative Directorate(IPID) said one of the rape cases dates backas far as 2010.
On Friday the case was remanded untilThursday 24 July for bail application.
The state opposes bail due to the serious-ness of the crime.
The accused was kept in custody andtransported to the Pollsmoor CorrectionalFacility in Tokai where he is being treatedin the prison’s medical ward due to injuriesto his back, the suspect’s attorney, BradleyMuller, said.

KENNISGEWING VAN ’N VERGADERINGVAN DIE RAAD VAN DIE STAD KAAPSTAD
RICHARD ROBERTS@richardjohn_rj
Haar liefde vir netbal het ’n inwonervan Wesbank geïnspireer om diésport te gebruik om kinders hier van
die gebied uit die strate te hou.Wesbank is bekend vir dwelmverwante
misdade en bendegeweld.Jacqueline ‘Jackie’ Hangan, wat vanaf
die ouderdom 6 jaar netbal speel, rig driemaal ’n week jong meisies in die geweldge-teisterde gebied af.
Sy het in 2011 die netbal-klub, Glen Heart, gestig.
Jackie het in 1999 in Wes-bank ingetrek en van 2000 tot2010 vir die Ou Apostoliesekerk netbal gespeel. Dit wasvoordat sy die klub in 2011 ge-stig het.
“Ek het dit gedoen om diekinders uit die kwaad te hou,om hulle weg van die dwelmsaf te hou en tienerswanger-skappe te verhoed,” het Jackiegesê.
Drie klubsHaar netbalspan was vroeër
jare by die voormalige Oostenberg-netbal-unie geregistreer.
Die unie het ontbind.Die span ding nou oor naweke mee met
twee ander spanne in Eersterivier en Klein-vlei.
“Ons is drie klubs wat op die oombliksaamspeel.
“Ons probeer drie maal ’n week oefen,”het Jackie, wat ook in 1983 die netbalklubEersterivier United gestig het, gesê.
Sy probeer tans ’n nie-regeringsorganisa-
sie stig om sodoende donasies te bekom.Haar netbalklub het tot onlangs toerustingby die Stad Kaapstad ontvang.
“Ons het geen toerusting gehad nie totdatdie raad twee weke gelede vir ons twee net-balpale en ’n bal geskenk het,” het sy gesê.
Die sowat 30 meisies en jong vroue tussendie ouderdomme van 9 en 25 jaar, oefen tansop ’n oop stuk veld in die gebied waar rom-mel op ’n gereelde basis gestort word.
“Voor dit het ons in die strate geoefen.Ons beoog egter om die stuk grond te teeren ook om dit te omhein.
Sportveld“Ons is geregtig om op die
Wesbank-sportveld te oefen,maar met die geskietery onderdie bendes in die gebied kanons nie die kinders daar laatspeel nie,” het sy vertel.
Haar vriendin, Emma Rhoda(54), help die klub soms uit asverdediger.
“Dit put ’n mens uit, maar ekgeniet dit,” het Emma gesê.
Jackie het gesê: “Die meisiesstel belang in die sport, maardaar is nie altyd finansies omvoort te gaan nie.
‘‘Baie van die ouers is werkloos en kannie bekostig om hulle dogters oor nawekeweg te stuur om aan die kompetisies deelte neem nie.”
Jackie werk deur die week as huishulpen gebruik dan van die geld wat sy v erdienom die meisies te help om aan wedstrydete kan deelneem.
“Ons hou ook soms verkope om geld inte samel,” het sy gesê.V Enigiemand wat die netbalklub wil steun, kan Jacqueline by 083 669 7855 kontak.

A Brackenfell man is challenging the cur-rent legislation allowing fathers only threedays paid family responsibilty leave whentheir baby is born.Hendri Terblanche (38), submitted a peti-
tion to theNationalCouncil of Provinces on3 July, asking that working men be given10 days paternity leave, Sapa reported to-day.He also approached everymember of par-
liament and urged them to draft a new Billto this affect.According to Terblanche, whose wife Gi-
selle gave birth to twins in November lastyear, three days family responsibility is notenough for parents who opt for caesareansection or in the event of other medicalcomplications.The twins were born three months pre-
maturely and spent 139 and 79 days respec-tively in hospital.“Everyone is quick to say fathers are not
involved enough with their children, butwith only three days’ paid family responsi-bility leave, they have a disadvantage fromthe start. The law needs to change to allowfathers to be involved,” he said.

Weens my omstandighede moesek en my gesin baie rondtrek.
Ek het drie kinders, onder-skeidelik 10, 12 en 17 jaar oud.Dit is reeds Codi (in gr.4) sesewende skool en sy het 100%in vier vakke gekry, Jordan(gr.7) se negende skool en hystaan tweede in sy klas, enNeillynn (gr.11) se elfde skoolen sy doen self nie sleg vir eenwat op ’n hoë standerd vanEngels na Afrikaans moesoorskakel, omdat daar nie plekwas in ’n Engelse skool nie.
Baie het vir my gesê dierondtrek sal die kinders seopvoeding benadeel. Ek ver-staan nie waarom nie, wantalle skole het dieselfde leer-planne. Al wat ons as ouersmoet doen, is om tyd af teknyp om ons kinders te helpmet skoolwerk.
Ons kan nie verwag onskinders moet konsentreer indie skool terwyl hulle hulbekommer oor ouers se proble-me tuis nie.
Soms weet ek nie waar dievolgende brood of vanaand sebord kos vandaan sal kom nie,maar dit is my probleem ennie my kinders s’n nie.
Al bekommernis wat ’n kindmoet hê, is om goed te presteerop skool om ’n beter toekomsvir homself te bou.
Ouers, daar is nog tyd. Neemjou posisie in as ouer.
Leer jou kind dat daar ’nverskil tussen ’n ouer en kindis.

Ons word daagliks gebombar-deer met nuus oor swakdienslewering, protes-optogteen vandalisme. ’n Mens kannie anders as om depressief teraak oor al die goed nie.
Daarom is dit vir my baieaangenaam om julle te vertel
Wêreldklasdiens ’nvoorbeeld vir almal
van die uitstekende diens watek ontvang het.
Ek bedryf ’n klein onderne-ming en het by die verbruikers-goedere-raad van Suid-Afrika ’nreeks strepieskodes aangekoop.Op een of ander manier het diegoed van my rekenaar verdwyn.Ek pleit skuldig, dit was allesmy fout.
Op moedverloor se vlaktestuur ek toe ’n e-pos aan dieraad en vra of dit moontlik isom die nommers weer aan testuur.
Ek het my reggemaak vir ’ngroot klomp rompslomp – ekmeen, dis mos maar hoe ditgaan in ons ou landjie, niewaar nie?
Groot was my verbasing toeek slegs 14 minute later ’npragtige bewoorde e-pos terugkry van Sue Rogers met dieverlore nommers en al.
Ek kan dit net beskryf aswêreldklas-kliëntediens. Ek kannie uitgepraat raak daaroor nie.
Hierdie vrou is werklik ’nvoorbeeld vir almal en ’naanwins vir haar werkgewers.
As my onderneming grootgenoeg was, het ek haar “ge-steel” en Kaap toe gebring.

Ek wil reageer op MichelleChandler se skrywe (“Solution:Disabled parking disc,” Tyger-Burger, 9 Julie).
Ek het 20 maande terug ’ngroot beroerte gehad wat myverlam het.
Die dokters het gesê ek salnie regkom nie.
Ek het almal verkeerd bewysen vandag loop ek, al is dit nienormaal nie.
Ek het ’n skyf wat ek elketwee jaar moet hernu engebruik die parkering virgestremdes.
Dan loop ek in die winkelsrond.
Ek kan nie normaal uit diekar klim of inklim nie en dit ishoekom ek nie gewone parkeer-plekke kan gebruik nie.
My kar se deur kan nieheeltemal oopmaak nie, wat mydan verhoed om in of uit teklim.
Moenie net aanneem almal isdieselfde nie.
Glo my, jy wil nie oorkomwat ek deur is nie. As jy ’nprobleem met sulke mense het,maak seker dat jy wel die regtemense aanvat.

Mens staan telkemale verstomoor die drif waarmee dieanti-doodstrafbrigade te veldetrek oor die (hoogs onwaar-skynlike) herinstelling daarvan(“I support the death penalty”,TygerBurger, 9 Julie).
Die houding is meestal datoortreders voor die voetdoodstraf moet kry.
Ons weet tog dat daar in dieou bedeling baie ernstig endeeglik besin was voordatbesluit is op die ergste. Selfstoe was daar baie gevalle vanveral verkragters wat weertoeslaan nadat tronkstrafuitgedien is.
Die vraag is of die debatenigsins van waarde is. Sou ditnie beter wees as die driftiges –aan beide kante – eerderdaardie energie sou gebruik omte gaan hand bysit om gepasteondersteuning aan die slagof-fers van verkragting en dienaasbestaandes van vermoordeste bied nie?
Terselfdertyd is dit sekerbroodnodig dat raad gegee wordoor doeltreffende uitkomste tenopsigte van die oortreders. Diehuidige stelsel van tronkstraf isduidelik nie die gewensteafskrikmiddel nie, veral as dieoortreder ’n bendeleier is watsy pad na vyfsterverblyf kanbewerkstellig.
Dit is ook duidelik, danksyprogramme soos Carte Blanche,hoe lekker diegene met genoeggeld ’n gerieflike bestaan in onstronke kan voer.

Maak dit diebeste 67 min.van jou jaarNelson Mandela het derduisende menseoor die wêreld heen aangeraak – nie netdeur sy voorbeeld, inspirasie en intensepersoonlike belangstelling in hul doen enlate nie, maar ook deur sy bystand in huldonker dae.
Oor die wêreld heen het mense ’nminuut van stilte vir hom gehandhaaf toedie nuus van sy heengaan rugbaar word.Selfs die belangrikste politieke vergade-rings en groot sportbyeenkomste is oralonderbreek om Madiba te huldig.
In Suid-Afrika het landsburgers urelank en kilometers in rye gestaan om hullaaste eerbetoon aan hom te bewys.
Seker die treffendste stukkie kommen-taar het gekom van die onbekende manwat ure lank sy beurt in die ry afgewagom sy laaste eer te betoon toe Madiba instaatsie gelê het. Hy’t gesê: “Ek gee nieom om vir 27 uur in ’n ry te staan nie,want hy het 27 jaar van sy lewe vir onsgegee sodat ons vry kan wees.”
En Vrydag 18 Julie kry alle Suid-Afri-kaners weer die geleentheid om nie vir 27uur nie, maar slegs 67 minute, uit te reikna mede-landsgenote in nood om sóMadiba se nagedagtenis te vier. Dit is ’nwonderlike geleentheid vir elke mens,organisasie en sake-onderneming om ’npositiewe verskil aan iemand anders selewe te maak.
Gryp dit aan met dieselfde geesdrif enpassie as wat Madiba openbaar het in systrewe om ons land ’n beter plek vir elkeinwoner te maak.
Maak dit die beste 67 minute van joujaar!
HOOFARTIKEL
SMSV It was shocking to see you turn the trag-ic death of an innocent child into a pleafor a library (TB, 25 June). The lack of alibrary did not kill that child, the great Ca-petonian pastime of jay-walking did.Rather call for better education on how tocross roads. Fine all parents who teachtheir children to run across the roads,which you see them do daily. Put up morespeed cameras for the escalating amountof speeding drivers. Some of us are sickof dicing with death every day. Carol,Sanddrift
V Ek sal graag wil weet wat dink ander mo-toriste van mense wat motors op sypaad-jies regmaak en wat die sypaadjies vol-staan. Daar is ook dié wat in die pad staan,terwyl jy moet wag sodat een voertuigkan ry. Dan is daar vragmotors wat moto-riste se sig versper. Hoekom word niksdaaraan gedoen nie? Hoekom werk sobaie mense van hul huis af? Daar is baiegeboue en persele wat leeg staan, wat hulkan huur. Anoniem
V My work involves driving, so I listen tothe radio often. There are many topics onraising money for the poor, but not aboutcontraception. I am in the medical fieldand have noticed that well-off peoplehave children according to what they canafford. I am tired of the expectation offree health, schooling and housing. Thereality in this world is if you want it, youpay for it. Rape is the only answer I willaccept for an unplanned pregnancy. Chris, Table View
V It’s a disgrace how the system fails vul-nerable kids by turning them into vulnera-ble adults (Xoliswa Hendricks, TB, 2June). These children are also orphanedand abandoned by a system which is sup-posed to protect and uplift them, butwhich sets them up for failure. Yet hun-dreds of experienced social workersstruggle to find employment. It’s strange,as the need for their services is so monu-mental. How embarrassing! Anonymous

Magnificent form displayed by Fran-cis Carthers and Bellville driverGunter Drotschie in the Sports and
GT and the Fine Car categories, was thehighlight of Saturday’s fifth round of theWingfield Motors Power Series at Killarney.
Carruthers performed beautifully, as hisJuno SS3 swiftly dealt with a Porsche thathad been strengthened by top Gautenger An-drew Culbert and Durban’s Sun Moodley,who is also the Big Foot Express category’ssponsor. Blaauwberg’s Craig Jarvis andMoodley finished second and third in thefirst race, with Jarvis (again), and Culbertfilling the second positions.
Despite not setting the quickest qualifyingtime, Drotshie was also in a destructivemood in the Charl Electrical Eng. Fine Carevents. His bulky Chev Commodore GS fi-nished well ahead of Eric van der Merwe(Porsche 944 turbo) and Jaco Lambert (VWFox) in the first race, with a Porsche powe-red Lourens Bester and Van der Merwe fil-ling these positions in the second.
The Mutlu Battery Classic Car categoryprovided a platform for another double vic-tory, this time for veteran Richard Quixley.But the Datsun 240Z driver was overshado-wed by Trevor Momberg’s V6 Ford Capri inboth races, with Vance Kearney (Ford CapriPerana) taking third in the first race.
The second Classic shootout was red flag-ged when Johan Swart’s VW Scirocco cras-
hed into the barrier wall at the exit of theEngen corner. Luckily, with the results jud-ged from their positions on the final comple-ted lap, Swart was awarded third place.Overall class victories went to Dave Alha-deff (B: Alfa), Herman de Kock (C: Ford Es-cort), and Jan-Willem de la Port (D: Chev Ca-nAm).
The quality of Masters V8 events easilycompensated for their lack of quantity asCraig Jarvis and Franco Donadio fought itout in the last two events. After sharing firstand second places, they were followed acrossthe line by Richard Schreuder in the firstand Paolo Cavalieri in the second.
The Makita Supercar events were possi-bly even closer, as Steve McCarthy was nomore than a hair’s breadth ahead of Nick Ad-
cock when the flag came out at the endof their first race. They switched positions
in the final, with Adcock having just enoughof an advantage to clinch the overall verdict.
The third places were claimed by Brad Wa-deley and Gareth Easom, who was also ad-judged the overall winner of the Silver class,despite starting from the back of the grid af-ter missing the qualifying sessions. TheBronze class went to Carl Nel.
Sean le Riche’s 1.7 litre Formula Renaultwas unchallenged in the single seater For-mula Libre events. He was followed by theB and C class winners, Rassie Erasmus (For-mula Ford Ray) and Stephen Schemel (For-mula Vee Rhema), in both races.
The sixth round of the Power Series is dueto be held at Killarney on August 9.
WINGFIELD MOTOR POWER SERIES: ACTION AT KILLARNEY
Burning the tracks
Gareth Easom from Edgemead took a well deserved 3rd place in Supercars after starting at the back of the grid.
For the second year in succession WesternProvince beat the Blue Bulls 24-11 in theu-16 Coca-Cola Grant Khomo ‘unofficial’final rugby match that took place at theTshwane University of Technology today(Thursday).
“We are all very excited with the win,but I have to say it has been a stressful twodays,” said manager, Frikkie Coetzer.“Our game against the Golden Lions wasperhaps the hardest game of the tourna-ment as they are physically strong and ca-me at us with no respite. But we managedto beat them. Today’s game was perhapsnot as physically challenging, but the BlueBulls play a good tactical game. We had tochange our game plan to introduce a com-bination of both strength and tactics,which worked in our favour in the end.”
This win means that Western Provincehas completed a Coca-Cola Youth Rugby
Week treble following the Western Provin-ce u-13’s successfully defended their u-13Coca-Cola Craven Week title last week andthe u-18 Coca-Cola Academy Week that isfinishing in Worcester this week.
WP was first to get on the score sheet asflyhalf Damian Willemse scored a try inthe 17th minute. Gianni Lombard conver-ted to bring the lead against the 2013 GrantKhomo title holders 7-0.
Western Province wing Benjamin Mom-berg scored another try for Western Pro-vince that Gianni Lombard converted andthe score moved to 14-0 two minutes later.
The Blue Bulls got on the score sheetthrough a penalty from Ruan de Swardtand at the break WP led 14-3.
It looked like the Blue Bulls were co-ming back into the game when WesternProvince conceded a penalty that Ruan DeSwardt slotted to bring Western Provin-
ce’s lead down to eight points.However Western Province was tight on
defense and countered well off the BlueBulls kicks. Gianni Lombard and the Wes-tern Province backline were slick and flu-id in their play. Province constantly keptthe ball in their possession making it diffi-cult for the Bulls to attack.
Western Province 8th man delivered atry for his team in the 37th minute to ex-tend his teams lead to 15 points followedby Gianni Lombard’s conversion.
Western Province continued to press onrelentlessly and were awarded with a tryas Jade Fortune dotted down. The matchheated up as the Bulls’ Gerald Lowe wassin binned, and Damian Willemse for WPfollowed him. The Bulls were finally awar-ded a try as Luke Fortuin scored with oneminute left on the clock.
WP U16’s take the honours
Kraaifontein het die tweede helfte van dieSuperliga-rugbyseisoen in die WP die afgelo-pe naweek goed ingelui met ’n oorwinningoor Young Peoples.
Die klubrugby-program kom eers die ko-mende naweek weer gedeeltelik op dreef,maar in ’n vervroegde Augustus-bepalingwas die Kraaie Saterdag met 29-22 die meer-dere van die Dal Josafat-span. Kraaifonteinhet wankelrig begin en was met die draai-slag nog 5-12 agter. Vier verdere drieë in dietweede skof het sake egter in die tuisspan seguns beklink.
Die volgende paar wedstryde (tuisspaneerste) vind eerskomende Saterdag plaas:Helderberg t Belhar, Brackenfell t Kraaifon-tein, Pniël Villagers t Goodwood, Hands &Heart t Sir Lowrians. – (Sarel Burger)
