“I would like to applaud the members of theDelft South community who apprehendedthe man and handed him over to SAPS forarrest. This situation could have easilyturned into one of vigilante violence and Iapplaud those members of the communitywho kept calm in a volatile situation and en-sured that justice can take its course.
“By working with the SAPS, our commu-nities can go a long way towards increasingthe safety of their neighbourhoods and sur-rounding areas.
“It is now up to the SAPS to ensure that
there is sufficient evidence which can resultin a successful prosecution and that the sus-pect pays for his crimes by being put behindbars away from our communities.
“In terms of my oversight role I will bemonitoring the case and requesting updatesfrom our watching briefs team who will bein court to monitor the proceedings.”
As more information about the incidentbecame available, members of the commu-nity felt that many parents in the area arenot taking proper precautions to keep theirchildren safe.
Arnold Josephs who lives in the area nearwhere the body was found said that toomany parents just let their children wanderaround the streets at all times of the night.
“Sometimes when I come from work andit is dark I still see very young children play-ing in the streets, and I know people whosend their children to the shops at all timesof the night,” he said.
“This is asking for trouble because youjust can’t trust anybody out there, and thisincident proves how quickly something badcan happen.”

Haar droom is om ander te wys dat jy – werk-loos en al – geld kan verdien net deur jouhande te gebruik.
Haar inspirasie? “Ek het opgemerk hoemense met waentjies vol goed wat hullelangs die pad optel verby my huis stap endit na die skrootwerf neem. Ek het ook begindink aan die studente wat nie werk kry nie.Baie van hulle soek werk ná skool,” het Mag-daleine Leo, ’n bejaarde en oud-onderwyservertel.
Sy het in Februarie verlede jaar ’n projekbegin waarby sy ornamente en alle soortitems vervaardig wat mens in en om diehuis kan gebruik.
As deel van haar projek vervaardig sy sak-ke uit ou sakkies, versier sy poppe wat ’nmens in ’n toilet kan uitstal en stoele watin kinders se kamers gesit kan word, kus-sings, serpe en truie.
“Deel van die projek is om te wys jy kanvir jouself werk skep,” het sy gesê.
Magdaleine, wat in 1996 as onderwyser af-getree het, het tot verlede jaar nog skolieremet hul werk gehelp. Sy het egter vanjaarbesluit om daarmee op te hou en op haar pro-jek te fokus.
“Die studente het tot by my huis gekom,soms ná 18:00. Ek het hulle gehelp met mees-te van hul skoolvakke. Vanjaar het ek egterbesluit om dit te stop. . . ’n mens raak mosmoeg,” het sy glimlaggend gesê.
Sy het vir haar ’n uitsnysaag, ’n soldeer-toestel, gom en spykers gekoop, blikkies by-mekaar gemaak en van oral lappies gekol-lekteer waarmee sy deesdae haar produktevervaardig.
“My seun werk as ’n stoffeerder en af entoe kry ek ook van my materiaal by homwaarmee ek stoele maak wat ek dan as deur-stuiter gebruik.
“’n Mens kry seer wanneer jy ander sowerkloos sien. Mense begin dan te steel om-
dat hulle niks het nie. Ek dink mense kanself hul eie geld begin verdien deur hul han-de te gebruik,” het sy verder vertel.
Magdaleine verkoop nie die produkte watsy vervaardig nie, maar stal dit soms by diekleuterskool uit waar sy voorheen as onder-wyser gewerk het. Sy het ook noue bandemet kerke in die gebied waar sy mense wilaanmoedig om iets soortgelyks te doen.“Dalk kan die mense verbeter op dit wat ekgemaak het,” het sy gesê.
Magdaleine wil ook hê die ouers van ma-trikulante wat nie die paal gehaal het nie,moet van die projek bewus gemaak word.
“Ek hou daarvan as iemand iets doen, omdit dan self te probeer,” het sy gesê.
Verdien só geld met jou handeMagdaleine Leo, ’n afgetrede onderwyseres vanKuilsrivier, hou haardeesdae besig met ’nprojek waarin sy produktevervaardig waarmee ’nmens ’n huis kan versier.Magdaleine het gesê diedoel van haar projek is omwerkloses te wys dat hullegeld kan verdien net deurhul hande te gebruik.

“Young lives must be guided into good-ness.”These were the words of Pastor Charles
George from the Home of Compassion Min-istries who in conjunction with the Depart-ment of Community and Safety, successful-ly facilitated a festive season youth at riskprogramme within the Delft Eindhovencommunity.He pointed out that due to the increasing-
ly daily dilemmas faced within the Delftcommunity such as issues of gang violence,drug abuse and teenage pregnancy, they de-cided to host this event as a life changinginitiative.“Home of Compassion Ministries togeth-
er with the Department of Community andSafetyproduced this life changing initiativeprogramme to rescue and help our commu-nity and youth at risk.“Working within the community for the
past 20 years over the duration of the holi-dayswith similar projects, this time aroundwe successfully attracted over 1 000 youthat risk to attend,” he said.
MotivatedGeorge pointed out that youngsters came
from various areas that included Blik-kiesdorp, Delft South and surrounding are-as.“The lives of these youth at riskwere pos-
itively impacted and they were motivatedby being given positive insight towardsstriving for a better future.“We invited motivational speakers that
included rehabilitated drug addicts as facil-itators and speakers to share their life sto-
ries with our youth to help prevent theyouthat risk from the “hopeless” future thisadverse community currently offers”.Another highlight on the programmewas
when MEC Dan Plato visited the eventwhich took place on various days to moti-
vate and encourage the youth to strive forpositive goals in their lives.The pastor concluded that Home of Com-
passion strives towards creating positivegoal directed programmes to give our youthpositive role models to look up to.

Aprobe was recently launched intosmall but irregular deductions madefrom pensioners who drew their old
age grants at Pick n Pay pay points in De-cember.This paypoint service was made available
to all social grant beneficiaries in April lastyear, by means of their Sassa cards, whichmeans they avoid standing in long queuesfor hours at Sassa paypoints each month.During December several pensioners in
the Brackenfell/Kraaifontein area werecharged additional fees ranging in amount
between R2 and R10, when withdrawingtheir pensions at Pick n Pay in Cape Gate.According to statistical reports for 2013,
2.8 million people receive social grants inthe Western Cape alone. Of this, 258 759 areold age grants.
Investigation“This is the first time a fee was charged,
before it was free.“And why was the fee not the same across
the board? Pick n Pay had a notice up thatall Sassa transactions were free and nowthey are charging!” said one of the pension-ers* TygerBurger spoke to.When this particular pensioner contacted
the Sassa call centre, she was advised by aconsultant that the matter was under inves-tigation.On enquiry, Jonathan Ackerman, direc-
tor of customer services at Pick n Pay, con-firmed that the store does not charge any feefor the withdrawal of Sassa grant payments.“We have consulted with Sassa and it ap-
pears that some Sassa transactions mayhave incurred transaction fees...“Pick n Pay considers the payment of so-
cial grants as a service to our communitiesand does not profit from it at all,” he toldTy-gerBurger.He referred customers who found they
so confirmed that there should be no trans-action fees charged when beneficiaries ac-cess their social grants via approved mer-chants such as Pick n Pay.“Transaction fees apply only in the case
of ATM withdrawals, where standard ATMrates apply,” she said.“We will have to take the matter up with
CPS (Cash Paymaster Services) who is con-tracted to Sassa for the payment of socialgrants, for further investigation.”
RefundsIt is not certain yet what the outcome of
this investigation is, but TygerBurger couldestablish that no additional deductionsweremade from the pensioners in question dur-ing January.The deductionsmade inDecember howev-
er, were not refunded, according to one ofthe pensioners.“According to a Sassa consultant themon-
ey is still on my account but the Pick n Paysystemshowsnothing,” she said onMonday.CPS is a business unit of global company
NET1, who provides payment solutions andtransaction processing services across sev-eral industries.According to its website, the company de-
ploys what they call a universal electronicpayment system (UEPS), to distribute socialwelfare grants on a monthly basis to overnine million beneficiaries in South Africaon behalf of Sassa.It is further stated that the company de-
rives up to 66 %of its revenue from its socialwelfare grant distribution business.At the time of going to print, TygerBurger
had not received any updates on theprogress or outcome of the aforesaid investi-gation.V Sassa call centre 0800 60 01 60.

The rough and tumble of life is all part ofa days work forMuhidinsalum “Muhidin”Adla.During the week and weekends he per-
forms as an acrobat. His dream however isto someday start his very own circusschool.Despite not having a fixed income Adla
(27), a professional acrobat who is original-ly from Dar Es Salaam in Tanzania says hewill continue to perform as a street artistand teach children in the impoverishedWesbank to realise this life-long dream.Apart from owning a school he also
dreams about one day performing for theworld famous Cirque du Soleil.“Inmy heart I dream about Cirque du So-
leil,” he said.Adla is currently part of the group called
MamboJambo.Heoften trainswithhis fourfriends at the Multi Purpose Centre inWesbank and performs during theweek andover the weekends in Sea Point, Camps Bayand the V&A Waterfront.Muhidin trained as an acrobat since the
age of seven.He immigrated to South Africa five years
ago.“I came to South Africa to work. I only
work as an acrobat and have been doing sofor many years now,” he said.Muhidin has over the years also worked
for an international German circus produc-tion called Africa! Africa! and receivedtraining in Chinawhere he stayed for an en-tire year.“I started working for Africa! Africa! at
age 16 years. They saw me perform in the
streets,” he said.Muhidin started performing in the streets
of Tanzania to earn money for his parents.“My mother was unemployed and my fa-
ther used to sell clothes.”Muhidin started Mambo Jambo in 2013
with four friends.“The training is a lot of hard work. We
practise a lot.We look on the internet fornew ideas, but often also come up with ourown,”he said.Themost difficult trick toper-form, he says, is standing on someone’shead balancing his body with only onehand.“It took me two years before I was able to
do that.Often when I train I always say ‘nopain no gain’,” he said.

As the 2014 school year gets going ElswoodSenior Secondary is hoping to continue thetrend of increasing their matric pass rate.Principal Nikolaas Zass, was quick to
point out that their pass rate had droppedslightly from 2012, but the school was work-ing on plans to improve those figures.“We had 36 matrics last year of which 27
were successful,” he said.“Compared to our 2012 results of 86.4 %
there was a slight drop in our pass rate andwe did not have any learners passing withan A aggregate last year.”He pointed out that there were many so-
cial and economic factors which could havecontributed towards a drop in the matricpass rate.“Many of our Grade 12 learners lived very
far from school and had to leave their homesbefore five in the morning to reach schoolon time.“Unemployment also played a major role
in influencing examination outcomes.Manyparents had difficulty in assisting their chil-dren academically and financially due to fi-nancial constraints and poor social condi-tions at home.“While we do have these circumstances
the school attempted, to the best of their abil-ity, to assist disadvantaged and financiallydeprived learners.“I must commend the staff and teachers of
Elswood for their unselfish contribution inassisting and supporting learners duringtheir difficult period in preparing them-selves for their examinations.“Teachers availed themselves after school
to assist learners who had problems with
their schoolworkor even thosewhowereun-able to study at home to study at school inan environment conducive for studying.”Zass also pointed out that he was very
proud of all his Grade 12 learners, but hadto single out one that had succeeded despiteall odds.“Many of the learners who passed proved
that they want to rise beyond their currentcircumstances to achieve something in theirlives, but I would like to take this opportuni-ty to isolate one particular learner who real-ly had it difficult to make her dream real-ised.“I pay tribute to Sesetu Matiwane, from
Khayelitsha, who had to leave home beforefive everymorning,walking the dark streetswith nothing but faith to protect her andthen to crown all her sacrifices with a Bach-elor of Arts pass!“That should be a motivation to other ma-
triculants out there.”

ing to give them the chance to show whatthey understood from the day’s discus-sions.”Crime was under the spotlight the next
day with members of the police coming into talk to themabout drug andalcohol abuse,as well as community violence and othercrime concerns.On Wednesday the programme moved
from the Adriaanse Hall to Avonwood,where the police did the presentation oncrime, andhealthmatterswere discussed onThursday.“MC Ashley also came in to give them a
really fantastic show and then we did someteam building exercises with them,” saidMarlon.
Friday was spent preparing for the high-light of the eventwith a visit to the Sea Pointpools, and that included getting the shop-ping done for the treats of the day that in-cluded hot dogs, braai aswell as party packs.“The children enjoyed this trip immense-
ly. We could see how grateful they were forthe experience and now they know thatthere are people in their community whocare about them.”

We are in a new year withmany unknown challengesfacing all of us, one of which isto try in conjunction withother roleplayers not to becomea victim of crime.We the ordinary citizens
have to analyse and see if wehave methods in place toensure safety and security.1)Are we supporting our
local police in the fight againstcrime, are we aware of thenational emergency number,the number of the local policestation or your local sectorpolice patrol van? Do youreport crime so that the policestatistics can reflect a trueversion of crime in yourprecinct, do you attend policecommunity events, meetings orheed police crime preventionhints? Are you applying whennecessary, compliments orcomplaints? Do you supply thepolice with information wheth-er openly or anonymously inregard to crime or criminalactivities?2) Are we taking measures to
ensure our own safety and ofour families, the safety of allour property and are wedriving our vehicles in a legaland safe manner?3)Are we part of either a
crime prevention street com-mittee or a neighbourhoodwatch? Do you report short-comings in your neighbour-hood eg. street lights notworking, that will favourcriminals? Are we attendingand contributing to our localCommunity Police Forums andthus know the contact sectorpolice managers and are awareof crime trends or patterns inyour neighbourhood?4)Are we aware of other Law
Enforcement agencies eg.Metro Police, Law Enforce-ment, the SPCA and the Traffic
You must act toensure security
I moved into this quiet neigh-bourhood in 1977. There were afew older people, a few withschool-going children and a fewwith toddlers. Everyone friendlyand looking out for each other.Well good things don’t last
forever, the children grew upand moved on, some middle-aged also moved away, somepassed on.New ones moved in, mostly
rowdy at first, then calmeddown, but some just remainrowdy and really irritating.We had the misfortune of a
house belonging to the NGchurch built on our right handside.The first priest to move in
was as “quiet as a churchmouse” the second one fairlyrespectful, but unfortunately thesame cannot be said of thepresent family who occupy thehouse.Also unfortunately for me,
they moved in when I retired in2007 and thought I would havesome peace and quiet from thehustle and bustle of a workinglife, but that was not to be.After complaining a number oftimes and also having myfortune told because I was

SLICE OF LIFE
Jingle bellsand happyValentine’sJust when the paying populace aresighing a collective, “ah, thank goodnessit’s finally over!”, the board of sillyseason social sentimentalist marketersstarts milking the (mostly empty) walletswith truck-loads of hearts.Yes, you guessed it. The moment
Mariah Carey’s (or Boney M’s) Yuletidemelodies died down, they had the ware-houses aerated for last year’s back toschool placard specials.Change a price here, tweak a picture
there, et voila, the retail managers canstart compiling their monthly storetargets like clockwork – in perfect time tothe last coin falling from the SouthAfrican’s overworked purse.We buy into the marketing every year.
Those placards are irresistible – thehappy children in their crisp whites andshiny shoes really get the sentimentaljuices flowing. And they know exactlyhow to do it: they make us feel guilty.What parent in their right mind does
not want to get their child the latest,most expensive turn-up crayons (evenwhen normal ones would do the job)?Then, when the last cents are spent –
with a tear and a deep, deep sigh – theyrelease the angels and heart placards andbooklets, pamphlets and displays. So, ifby Valentine’s Day we’ve not learnt thelesson of “less is more”, they makecertain we smell the cinnamon goodnessof hot cross buns baking – a whole monthbefore Easter. So, dear reader, be sure tostock up on the chocolate eggs – theyknow we love our mothers too.

SMSV Na aanleiding van Phil van Skuldbult seSMS (15/01) wat sê sonder taxi’s sal dieekonomie platval. Dit het niks te makemet die saak nie. Ons praat hier van wet-teloosheid. Dit laat padgebruikers stres,wat nog te sê van bejaardes. Dit plaas an-der mense se lewens op die spel die oom-blik dat jy oor ’n rooi verkeerslig ry, watdeesdae algemeen is. Ek doen ’n beroepop die verkeersdepartement om drastiesop te tree. Moet ook nie afslag gee op boe-tes nie. AJ. Kuilsrivier
V Smart Phil, uit watter taxi het jy geval?Natuurlik kry taxi’s hulp, soos geen tolgel-de en subsidies. En baie taxi’s behoort aanmense met politieke konneksies. En hoehelp dit die ekonomie as honderde sterween gesinslede agterlaat wat dan van toe-laes moet lewe? Fabriek
V Vandag was my kleinseun se eersteskooldag. Ek was saam met my kinders bydie Laerskool De Tyger waar my seun ’nboete van R750 gekry het, omdat hy te naaan die kruising gestop het. Hy is mos ’nsagte teiken, terwyl die taxi’s almal se sie-le versondig in Voortrekkerweg. Ons ver-keersowerhede spits hulle toe op sagteteikens pleks van padvarke soos taxi’s. Ditis ’n skande! Verkeersbeamptes bekampnie misdaad nie, maar bereik hulle “tar-gets” op die manier. Swak! Sorg dat julletydens spitstye is waar julle moet wees. Fernando Smit

complaining, I eventually gotthrough to the church counciland the rowdiness stopped for ayear or so. Then again occa-sionally there would be loudmusic, shouting, and vulgarlaughter, so of course I com-plained again, then peace andquiet for a while, it seems asthough this unruly behaviourhappens in stages.Now, one can expect neigh-
bours to have a party/celebra-tion at certain times of theyear, and then it’s usually inthe evening and ends at 12pm,but these people start theirparties from any time (10am/12noon till way past midnight) beit Friday or Saturday, one hasto wonder, “when does thepreacher prepare his sermonfor Sunday morning?”Everybody knows that today’s
music is definitely not as musicused to be 10/15 years ago.Today it’s deafening drums
and quite irritating to the ear,so when everyone retires forthe night, switches off the TVand radio, can you imaginehearing that deafening soundstravelling through the air whilepeople are trying to get somesleep!Also imagine this in winter,
when you are all snug andwarm, and have to get up toreach for the Law Enforcementtelephone number?

It’s all about having health matters run-ning smoothly for the City of Cape Town’sHealth Directorate this summer season.
In conjunction with the Western CapeHealth Department, they are working tire-lessly to prevent diarrhoea-related fatali-ties during this season. Diarrhoea becomesa key focus for City Health at this time ofyear, with statistics showing that it is mostprevalent between November and May.
Since 2009, there has been a decrease inthe number of cases related to diarrhoeawith dehydration.
City Health reported that there were 4 161cases in 2010/11 and 3 447 cases in 2012/13.
The number of fatalities in children un-der the age of five has also decreased signif-icantly, from 170 deaths in 2009/10 to 74 in2012/13.
“The decrease in cases of diarrhoea withdehydration was noted across all eight CityHealth subdistricts in 2012/2013,” said thecity’s mayoral committee member forhealth, Lungiswa James.
“Off-season cases have also dropped. Thissuggests that our activities and efforts havebeen well placed and encourages us to con-tinue. It also bodes well for our goal to re-duce diarrhoea-related deaths.”
The city and its partners have devised anall-encompassing plan in recent years tocontinue reducing the number of people af-fected by diarrhoea, in particular fatalitiesamong young children.
This includes providing various supple-ments to children, training clinic staff inemergency rehydration, and fast trackingcases to ensure timeous treatment.
Their programme also takes awarenesscampaigns to clinics and schools, whilecommunity workers, volunteers, EarlyChildhood Development staff, and informalfood vendors are trained about health andhygiene matters.
The plan also aims to reduce the spreadof new diarrhoea cases by minimising therisk of oral-faecal exposure.
It has been found that the simple activityof frequent hand-washing with soap is high-ly effective in preventing diarrhoea as wellas the spread of other illnesses and infec-tions and has the potential to save morelives than an expensive vaccine or sophisti-cated medical intervention.
The City of Cape Town has endorsed the‘squeeze bottle’ which is a low-cost locallydesigned, easy and portable solution forhand-washing with soap when a tap is notavailable. This squeeze bottle is gainingpopularity and is also making a contribu-tion to waste minimisation (it sees the recy-cling of empty two-litre bottles).

Kraaifontein AME Primary, is one of10 schools in the Western Cape takingpart in a pilot project this year whereXhosa will be taught as a third addi-tional language.

Each province in the country hasidentified 10 schools for the pilotproject, which will be launched inFebruary.
Schools were invited last year toapply to be part of the project.
According to the Western Cape De-partment of Education spokespersonPaddy Attwell, the department is cur-rently in the process of appointingfive teachers to travel between theschools in question.

Santos will face an unknown quantitywhen they tackle Gamalakhe United inthe Nedbank Cup round of 32.
The People’s Team will face the KwaZulu-Natal side at home after being paired in thedraw last week.
Santos coach David Notoane says he ishappy with the draw, but will be doing hishomework on the minnows to prevent anyupsets.
“We are playing at home and that is veryimportant, but we are playing against a Sec-ond Division team which is tricky,” he says.
“We don’t know much about them, but Ihave started doing my homework. It’s the
first time I have heard about them. I havespoken to some of the people I know in Kwa-Zulu-Natal, so I have a little bit of insight in-to the team we are facing.
“We are happy with the draw, but we arenot going to take it lightly.”
PositionSantos are currently fifth on the National
First Division (NFD) table, eight points be-hind the league leaders, but have a game inhand.
Notoane’s side suffered a 1-0 loss to localrivals Vasco da Gama in their last outingand will need to take maximum points fromSaturday’s match away to Sivutsa Stars tokeep their hopes of promotion alive.
Meanwhile, neighbours Milano United
have also welcomed a fortunate NedbankCup draw result after some indifferent formin the NFD.
The Grassy Park side will host Bloemfon-tein Young Tigers in the round of 32.
Milano coach Theo Hempe says he wouldhave preferred to play a bigger team, whichwould’ve drawn in a large crowd of support-ers.
“We are not complaining; it’s a favourabledraw so we want to give it everything andgo as far as possible in the Nedbank Cup,”he says.
RespectHempe says he last faced Tigers as a play-
er. “It’s not the first time I’ve heard of theclub. I played against them a while back,

NEDBANK CUP: ROUND OF 32
Santos face unknowns
SAREL BURGER
Ná sy onverwagte nederlaag die afgelopenaweek is dit vir Brackenfell se senior krie-ketspan neusie verby wat beker-aspirasiesin die Boland se eendagkompetisie betref –behalwe as hy die Maties die komende na-week twéé keer die kous oor die kop kantrek.
Afgesien van sy ligabepaling Saterdagtuis teen die onoorwonne Stellenbosse stu-dente, ry Brackenfell Sondag ook Coetzen-burg toe vir sy uitgestelde wedstryd van dieeerste ronde teen die Maties.
Alleenlik oorwinnings in albei hierdiekragmetings sal die Brakke in die wedloopom die trofee hou.
Dié situasie is as gevolg van Brackenfellse tweede agtereenvolgende nederlaag inhierdie kompetisie toe Paarl (182/7) Tyger-berg Saterdag met 3 paaltjies geklop het.
Wiaan Smit (43 en 3/33) kan met reg baieongelukkig voel dat sy Brackenfell-span-maats hom so lelik in die steek gelaat het.
In hul uitgestelde wedstryd Sondag teendie Victoriane het die Brakke (189/5) daremhulself reggeruk om met vyf paaltjies tewen.
Sean Kristal (68), Smit (56), Ockert Eras-mus (3/21) en Michael Loubser (3/27) wasdie manne wat die knoop deurgehak het.Kraaifontein se Oostelikes, wat die hele sei-soen nog sukkel, het met ’n baie verbeterdepoging teen Coronation van Pniel vorendaggekom, maar sy 207 lopies was steeds nie ge-noeg om die besoekers se telling van 227/9verby te steek nie.
Fabian Faro (3/37), Ryan Canning (56) enZac Qwabe (34) het die beste bydraes gele-wer. Wie weet, dalk kan die Kraaie die spanvan Paarl-Oos Saterdag op die Louis Smal-ovaal laat les opsê.
