'CRIPPLING SA DEBT' will affect economic, social reconstru~tion says Nujoma

NAMIBIAN President Sam Nujoma yesterday told SADCC heads of state in Lusaka that efforts to improve the standard of living of Namibians were constrained by a crippling R1200·million debt and decifit inherited from the previous South African administration.

Making his debut speech as a fully­fledged member of the previously nine-member economic grouping of Angola, Mozambique, Malawi, Swaziland, Zambia, Lesotho, Botswana, Tanzania and Zimbabwe, President Nujoma welcomed the acceptance of his country as the tenth member.

Earlier the Namibian head of state received a resounding welcome as Namibia was formally accepted into SADCC ranks at this 10th anniver­sary commemorative ceremony at Lusaka on Sunday.

Because of the inherited war-rav­aged economy which had a narrow base and low productivity levels, Pres Nujoma said the constraints were now more pronounced because of his government's bid to establish social justice. and economic growth.

"We are inheriting an enormous budget deficit, in the order of R500 million, not to speak of th~ immoral 'debt' of R700 million supposedly owed entirely to the former apartheid colonial regime.

"This", said Nujofna, "puts con­straints upon our ability to embark upon programmes of social upliftment.' ,

President Nujoma said Namibia would make "a modest contribu­tion" in facilitating SADCC mem­ber states' access to the sea. Namibia so far had control of the northerly seaport of Liideritz because South Africa still maintajned its grip on the deep-water port of Walvis Bay.

"Onthe question of Walvis Bay, it is our fervent hope that the govern­ment of South Africa will cooperate in solving this problem in the spirit

of Resolution 432 of the United Nations Security Council as soon as pos­sible. "

President Nujoma also offered to . host the 1991 SADCC sUmmit in Windhoek.

... Meanwhile, it was revealed on Friday that President Nujoma has requested the World Bank to conduct an independent study of the Namib­ian economy.

Director-General of the National Planning Commission Dr Zedekia J'olgavirue said a clear and unbiased description of the Namibian econ­omy would be presented to the inter­national donor's conference in June, together with the Namibian develop­ment aidpolicy and a locally drafted document on the country's priority needs.

AMBASSADORS ofvarious embassies in Namibia will start presenting their credentials to Namibian President Sam Nujoma today, according to sources in the Foreign Affairs Department. First in line will .be the Angolan Ambassador, following by Zambia and other Frontline States.

There was some specUlation last week as to whether the order of pres­entation of credentials by various missions in Namibia would be done on an alphabetical system or accord·, ing to priorities as determined by the new government.

Priority has apparently prevailed, and Angola will have the honour of being 'Dean' of the embassies in an independent Namibia. While sources

could not give the exact pecking 9rder in which the ambassadors will pres­ent themselves to President Nujoma, it is believed that all the Frontline · States will follow Angola.

They are set to be followed by the Scandinavian countries (which have always supported Swapo a great deal as far as humanitalian aid is con-

cemed), the Arabic countries and others.

Earlier there were reports on the diplomatic grapevine that the West Germans wanted to be high on the list, but this will apparently not be the case.

Ambassadors will probably pres­eI),t their credentials at State House.

'Pondok 'people told to break down homes

THE Windhoek Municipality is on the verge of booting out hundreds of people from temporary homes in Katutura because their backyard 'pondoks' "might devalue the area".

Future·prospects ·for many home­less people in Katutura took an even deeper dive at the end of last week

'when they were notified by the Municipality they had to either break down their backyard buildings or supply "the necessary building plans",

If they do not, they have been threatened with legal action.

until pennanent accommodation could be provided. Saamstaan' s organisers explained they were meeting the needs of a long list of registered applicants as qUickiy as possible, but that tem­porary solutions had been unavoid­able.

A substantial number of short-term back-yard buildings had been erected - usually by family or friends - in an attempt to ease the crisis.

But during the course of last week, various plots were visited by build­ing inspectors from the Municipal­ity. Notices were issued instructing home-owners to either supply neces-

. sary building plans or "break down" the additional buildings. The notices gave people two or three weeks to take down the shelters they had built with their own or donated materials.

If they d~ not, they face legal ac­tion.Hundreds of people are setto be affected by the move, a concerned social worker told The" Namibian.

ETHIOPIAN VICTIMS NEED AID URGENTLY

~,~ f ~\ .~

ADDIS ABABA - Thousands of skeletal drought victims, some with match-stick legs and protruding bellies of acute malnutrition, are begging for food in rebel-held areas of northern Ethiopia, according to a senior relief official. "

Most of the more than one million drought victuns in the rebel"held

,~'regions ofWollo and Tigray are al­ready severely malnourished and need urgent assistance to survive, says famine relief coordinator Francis Stephanos. "

"Thousands of .skeletal people, some with protruding . bellies and match-stick legs, have converged on the main highway northward from Korem (in Wollo near the border with Tigray)," he told Reuters this weekend.

"They are mostly elderly men and women and small children who have nothing to eat and who are stopping every passer-by to beg for food," he added.

His fears, evoking chilling memo­ries of the devastating 1984-85 fam­ine which killed at least one million Ethiopians, was based on a fact-find­ing mission of his church relief con­sortium, the Joint Relief Partnership (JRP), which has just returned to Addis Ababa.

The lRP, grouping relief agencies connected to the Roman Catholic, Evangelical and Ethiopian Orthodox churches, is trying to move food aid to rebel-controlled areas of northern Ethiopia, where the Ubited Nations

, says up to 4,5 million people face starvation this year because of drought and war.

Francis said the famine situation appeared "very critical" around Maychew, the first town in Tigray

. province after crossing from Wollo, an~ looked worse inthe northern part of Tigray.

The JRP began its scheme to take food aid into areas held by the Tigray People's Liberation Front (TPLF) on March 20, with trucks setting out from the W ollo provincial capital, Dessie, and crossing military lines some 35 km to the north.

Daily truck convoys h§ve so , far only been taking food as far as rebel­held Kobo, 150 km to the north.

The JRP hopes to move a total of 130 000 tonnes into the rebel-held

~orthern regions by December. Francis said there was how enough

food 'stocked at Kobo for distribution to start shortly in selected towns further north. But the operation could not get under way in Tigray because road conditions were bad.

According to the JRP report. some bridges had·been destroyed and part of 'the main road near ' Mekele, in central Tigray, had been washed away, making it hard for trucks topass. The JRP had sent a road maintenance team to the region to undertake quick repairs, Francis said.

But he reiterated an appeal he made on Friday for the international com­munity to supply 100 new trucks to boost the operation "before it is too late".

The JRP operation, under way with the consent of both the TPLF and the government but without the benefit of a formal cease-fire, is currently running 40 trucks between Dessie and Kobo and plans to boost the fleet to 147 soon.

l{ohl considers new role for himself BONN - West German Chancellor Helmut Kohl said on Sunday be would

'love to be the chancellor of a united Germany. "Without presuming election out­comes, this is now a possibility at

' least. It really would crown it all," he said in a radio intervievy. KOhl,., who will be 60 on Tuesday, said the process of unification had not slowed since East Germany's first free elections two weeks ago. He said he thought a new East Ger­man government would be formed soon after the new conservative­dominaled parliament meets on April 5. "Then we'll work at top speed to unveil a package to East and West Germans early in May which con-

tains the foundations of monetary and social union and an economic community," he added. Kohl's centre-right government has offered to replace ' the weak East German currency with its powerful deutschmark, to prop up the East's ailing economy and convince East Germans unityis'-on its way. But a proposal from West Germany's powerful central bank, the Bun­desbank, supported by Finance Min­ister Theo Waigel at a meeting in Ireland on Saturday, for the exchange rate to be set at one West German mark for every two East German marks, has created a political furore in both states. East Germans, who see their wages

and the bulk of their savings being cut in half under the plan, have ac­cused Kohl of reneging on strong hints he made during the East Ger­man electiaos that the currencies would be swapped at a one-for-one rate. More than 150000 East Germans have poured over the border to the West so far this year in a wave of emigration it is hoped currency un­ion will stop. "Of course this exodus is a catastro­phe as we need all these people - doc­tors, technicians, programmers, spe­cialists - to rebuild East Germany," Kohl said. The numbers leaving have fallen sharply since the election.

Mugabe's one-party dream doomed after 'low turn-out

HARARE - President Robert Mugabe's long-cherished dream of turning Zimbabwe into a one-party state may have been doomed by a low turnout in national elections.

Mugabe, 66, easily won re-elec­tion in the presidential poll, taking well over four votes to every one cast for his rival Edgar Tekere, leader of the breakaway Zimbabwe Unity Movement (ZUM).

With results counted from 106 of

the 120 constituencies, Mugabe led , Tekere by 1 750 926 votes, or just over 82 per cent, to 365 149. His party Won 98 of 101 seats declared in voting for a new parliament against three for oppositon parties.

But official figures pointed to a total turnout of around 2,5 million people, against the 2,9 million re­corded in elections in 1985. Offi­cially the voters' roll has 4,8 million electors, though privately officials say J1?8Dy of these may be dead or counted twice.

Tekere's party, founded less thana year ago, failed to make the l>reak­through it hoped for, alhugh it did better than many forecast in taking close to 20 per cent of the national

' vote . . ZUM complained of biased treat­

ment in the official media and of intimidation by the ruling party \l8a.inst its candidates and supporters. One of its leading candidates was shot and seriously wounded just before the poll.

Tekere wlIf now likely to argue ., that he succf'eded in his inain aim of denying MUgilbe a popular mandate

for the one-party state, a political ideal now seriously questioned by many Zimbabweans in the light of events in Eastern Europe.

Mugabe, who has promisedbc will only legislate for a one-party state if he has overwhelming popular sup­port, had called on voters to enmre that opposition parties met their "fiDal death".

Tekere' 8 party reta.inedhis old Beat of Mutare Central in the east by a narrow margin and wona secood Mat in the south-eastem town of Chip­inBe. A small oppoaitian JIrty, ZANU­

. Ndonga, hung on to its lone Beat in Chipinge. lotugabe's party, wbich merged with the PF-ZAPU party of Joshua Nkomo last y~, did best in rural areas where ZUM candidatOl failed to make an impact.

But ZUM did better in towns aDd cities, winning 30percent of the vote against some of Mug abe 's top JDiJU­teIS in what was sccnlll a protest vote against rising unemployment aDd charges of corruption amq some senior colleagues.

THE NAMIBIAN Monday April 2 1990 3

Discrimination still rife claim Katutura nurses THE South African Afrikaans weekly Vrye Weekblad on Friday

identified a Pretoria attorney, Ernst Johan Victor Penzhorn, as the mystery "intermediary" who allegedly transferred SADF money to slain Swapo ~¢vist Anton Lubowski, according to army evidence presented to the Harms Commission.

NURSES at the Katutura Hospital are up in arms over what they see as preferential treatment given to white nursing staff recently transferred to the hospital. . . , ,

They feel that senior positions were specially created for the white nurs~ ing staff, while "old staff" at the hospital were never promoted to senior positions.

TIle situation appears to have arisen through the integration of second­tier health departments into the Department of · Health and Social Services.

Apparently before it dissolved, the white administration promoted most of its nursing staff.

Last week senior nursing staffwere deeply involved in discussionS among . themselves lIJld with the hospital authorities over the question of white nurses who were transferred from the now defunct white administra-

tion to tak~ up senior positions at Katutura Hospital. .

With the formation of the new central health department all nurses now resort under this authority.

The immediate allocating of Sen­ior positions to white nurses has angered black nursing staff who have served the hospital for years, but were never promoted to seniorposi­tions.

The nurses are demanding that the new health authorities investigate the criteria the white administration used for· promotion. .

Permanent Secretary for Health, Dr Solly Amathila, told The Namib­ian he had a meeting with some nurses Friday. He said they were not repre-

streets, in ·the nuddle of the rainy season, is hardly a humanitarian approach."

No realistic alternative has been offered .to those facing extended homelessness or a court appearance for failing to comply with the official order.

"They aren't catered for by Nas­boukor or Municipality housing schemes. Some pay as little as R5 a month rent and can't afford to pay more, " Hengari said.

The people served with the notices were similarly bemused. One liome­owner, Martin Uirab, had built tem­porary accommodation on his plot for members of his extended family who literally had nowhere else to go.

The 'pondok'~ as it is described on . the Municipality's notice, is a neat building which he and his friends are still in the process of improving. One of the co-builders, Nelson Tsabalala, explained that until the 'pondok' had been built, its occupants had been "lying in the water in the open fields".

He pointed to a neighbouring gar­den where a shack had been erected for storing wood. "That can remain where it is," he said. "Is the Munici­pality trying to say wood is more important than people?' ,

Another family nearby was expe­riencing similar problems. Seventy­eight-year-old Justine Eises had been living in cramped conditions with her granddaughter for the last 30 years, but in December Saamstaan provided the old lady with a corru­gated iron hut in her granddaughter's backyard.

Justine is proud of her hut which Saamstaan bought from TransNamib for R 100. It has been brightly painted and is obviously well-kept. But the Municipality says it must be taken down and that she must go to the old age home. "My grandmother is blind

and I can look after her much better than anyone else. What is the Mu­nicipality'S objection to the hut?" her granddaughter asked.

The main objection, according to the Municipality's director of prop­erties, Mr Venter, is that such build­ings might devalue the area.

"It's a question of control," he said. "These people have not gone

• through the proper channels of per­mission to erect additions to their properties.' ,

He was afraid the 'trend' would create shanty towns in Katutura, arguing that a collection of shacks in one backyard might upset the owners of a neighbouring property.

" We can't allow people to erect shanties wherever they feel like it. If they want to do this it should be done­in one area. "

He said the area of Okuryangava had been set aside for thi~ purpose, adding' 'we will permit them to erect whatever they can afford there".

Meanwhile,the crisis steps taken by Saamstaan in purchasing 16 one­room huts and eight four-room huts from TransNamib and the self-help measures taken by many Katurura families in building their own tem­porary accommodation, seem to have been in vain.

"We were hoping to make sub­stantial progress with building work after the end of April, when more builders are joining the scheme," said Hengari. "But this is a real setback."

As another homeless old man left the Saamstaan office, vaguely as­sured that the organisation would do what it could, Hengari shook his head sadly.

, 'How can the Municipality worry about creating a superficially good impression in Katutura when so many people are suffering?" he said.

sentative. of the entire nursing staff. The group itself had made this clear to him; he said.

Dr Amathila said the department could only deal with the problem at a .nationallevel once the nurses' griev­ances "were representative".

"We are waiting for a report of a meeting attended by a much larger group of nurses, " which was due to be held on Friday, Dr J.mathila said.

The department, he added, was capable of handling and solving the problem.

Some nurses believe that the posts ·to which the white nurses have been appointed were especially created to accommodate them.

NINE deputy ministers were officially sworn in by Namibia's chief justice, Judge Hans Berker,at the Windhoek Supreme court on Saturday morning. Seen here is deputy Justice Minister Vekuui Rukoro completing the formalities, with Justice Berker.

Vrye Weekblad wrote: "We can disclose today that it was Penzhorn' s closed corporation, Global . Capital Investments CC, which in June last year made the much talked-about payments of R40 000 and R20 000 into Lubowski's Nedbank accounts in Cape Town and Windhoek, which are now being used as evidence to 'prove' .that Lubowski was an army spy."

The newspaper reported that fax messages from Global Capital In­vestments ·over business transactiO{lS were reportedly found among Lubow-,

ski ',s papers after his death. . The activities of Global Capital

Investments are listed as "consult­ants in financial and investment . matters, including imports and ex­ports pertaining . thereto". Penzhom is the only member of the closed coporation.

In 1987, Penzhom, a partner intbe Pretoria-based legal firm of Mac­Robert, De Villiers and Hitge, helped to free four South Africans held in Zambia for nine months on alleged spying charges for military intelli­gence.

Desperate plea for help AFTER months oflooking forward to the great event, Independence Day dawned on a decidedly:.gloomy Adnan Ramadan. On the eve of Independence, Adnan, a Palestinian member of Untag's civilian staff, lost just about all his documents, a number of personal possessions, and a substantial amount of money when his vehicle was broken into and his briefcase was stolen. A forlorn Adnan is now sitting in Windhoek, unable to leave Namibia as planned, trying to get hold of the new documentation necessary for his journey back to Vienna. "I was supposed to leave on Friday, but it was impossible. I don't have the papers I need to get back into Austria - in fact I don' t have any papers at all." He can get some of the more essential documents replaced, given time, but says it will take months to get everything sorted out. Medical certificates, driving licences and UN documents were just some of the things contained in the briefcase, which was taken from his car between 10 and 12am on the morning of March 20. The case dark grey and made by 'Delsey' also contained many souvenirs of the Untag mission in Namibia, some semi-precious stones and about $1500, mainly in $100 bills. "I don'fexpect to get the money back," he said, "but that's not the most important thing. My documents are vital to me, I would be so grateful for their return," said Adnan. • If anyone can help Adnan, they should please contact The Namibian with details; or 'phone Adnan Ramadan at 229220 ext 2311 (w) or 223254 (h). Adnan is offereing arewar, and no questions will be asked.

THE NAMIBIAN Monday April 2 1990 5

Toivo outlines mining plans NAMIIUA would no longer allow South Africa to control its mining, but would .move cautiously in making changes, Mining Minister and general secretary of Swapo Andimba Toivo ya Toivo said in an interview with Sapa.

mond industry, not least of all is CDM's legacy of a labour force un­trained to immediately assume tech­nical and management functions. "

Because of this and other similar constraints in the mining industry as a whple and the economy in general the Namibian government could not implement its promises overnight.

cates that training has been a low priority and employment in this in­dustry relatively low. .

"'!his is partly due to the capital intensive nature of the diamond and uranium indu stry in Namibia, " a UN economist pointed out.

THE Minister of Mines, Andimba Toivo ya Toivo, headed a delegation which visited Navachab Gold Mine near Karibib on March 28. He was accompanied by the Minister of Labour Hendrik Witbooi, and Abel Gower, managing director of Erongo Mining and executive director of CDM. Toivo ya Toivo is pictured above with the rlrst bar of gold poured in an independent Namibia. Navachab will be officially opened on June 11 by President Sam Nujoma.

"Over the years, through the mining industry, Namibia has developed an abnormal degree of dependency on a foreign country. Such an economic dependency threatens the political aspirations of a sovereign state and cannot be allowed to continue.

"The government's three-pronged aim will be to avert an economic collapse, to consolidate our fiercely won independence and to establish a solid foundation for the development of future policies," he said.

Revenue from the mining industry is expected to provide the financial muscle for the new government's nation-building programme.

The minister said the mining in­dustry would have to be integrated into the Namibian economy and government intervention would have to focus on ensuring this key industry gave priority to technical and man­agement training, which he claimed had been sadly neglected in fPe past.

Namibia's mining industry ac­counted for 72 per cent of the total export revenue in 1988. Almost all of Namibia mineral exports are chan­nelled through South Africa for proc­essing and are re-exported overseas.

"Neither will Namibiatolerate the same high degree of the repatriation of profits to foreign countries," he said.

Soviets speak on decolonisation role WITH Namibian independence, Africa was finally decolonised. In the closing stages of the process, all countries contributed to the collapse of the colonial system on the continent. APN correspondent Vladimir Astafyev asked Vyacheslav Ustinov, head of the Soviet delega~on in the Commission of Verification of the South-West African Accords, about the USSR's role in the process.

The USSR was never indifferent to the destinies of the Mrican nations and sup­ported their liberation struggle from the beginning, he said. .

"For several decades, this country de­fended the enslaved people's rights to self­detennination and independence in the UN ·and at other international levels . At the final stage, the USSR invariably backed up Africans in their struggle to eliminate the vestiges of colonialism. .

"I thi~ Soviet support for Mrica's decolonisation after the war helped many Mrican countries win their independence. Of course not everything came out well for lack of experience, and our economic and other assistance was not always effective. Butstill, the Sovietcontribution to Mrican liberation cannot be denied.

" Unfortunately, now this aspect of Soviet foreign policy is disparaged and sometimes even forgotten. "

Ustinov emphasised the Soviet role in Namibia's decolonization. He said ~ USSR had always supported Swapo and advocated Namibia '8 independence in all UN bodies.

"We uncompromisingly and consis­tently denounced South Africa's domestic policy and its illegal occupation of Na­mibia," he said.

When a Namibian settlement began to shape; the USSR unofficially' joined the negotiations and promoted the achieve­ment of. specific results which were writ­ten down in the package agreements s igned in New York in December 1988.

When Namibia was gaining independ­ence, the USSR directly contributed to the implementation of the UN plan. Thirty­two Soviet citizens were included in the international contingent of observers stay­ing in Namibia. The Soviet Aeroflot Air­line assisted in shipping UN military and

civilian personnel to help Namibia in the transition period. Soviet planes carried Namibian refugees from abroad and fur­nished other help.

"I am pleased that the Joint Commis­sion had largely promoted Namibia's de­colonisation," Ustinov said. "The Soviet delegation which I have the honour of heading, was represented at the Commis­sion as observers. With the creation of this Commission, the USSR officially joined the settlement process and contributed to its completion."

"In particular, we invited the represen­tatives to speed up the solution of emer­gent problems. The Commission played Ii decisive role in settling the notorious crisis in the north a year ago. "

"In the case of Namibia, the USSR did the right thing in backing Swapo - the vanguard of the Namibian people. In the past the USSR made mistakes in Africa, betting on organisations which were not supported by the majority. I think those mistakes were partly the fault of the For­eign Ministry and the CPSU central com­mittee which was loyal to its old friends and did not analyse real life, as happened when Zimbabwe was fighting for inde­pendence.

"Now the situation has changed. We no longer see the world only in black and white. The Namibian settlement was an example of flexibility, wisdom and sen­sible approach.

"That does not refer to the Soviet Union alone. We should not ignore the difficult evolution of views of the South African leadership, and the changes in US African policy. We should give credit to the efforts and sometimes even courage of all parti­ciapants in the Namibian settlement," Ustinov concluded.

ing industry has seen a substantial outflow of Namibia's wealth.

However, he said, given the cru­cial importance of this industry to the establishment of a healthy economy the government would have to en­sure that any changes did not threaten production.

" That is why we are studying the situation carefully and walking cau­tiously towards the implementation of a new policy in this industry that will contribute to social and eco­nomic development. "

Varlous policy options that include management rights, tax rates, repa­triation of profits and capital recov­ery are being investigated by the government. Diamonds, uranium oxide and copper which are currently the key minerals in Namibia's min­ing industry are controlled by three multinational companies: Cons~li­dated Diamond Mines, which is in tum controlled by the De Beers Group; Rossing Uranium, and Tsumeb Cor­poration Limited.

Given that CDM exports comprise about 50 per cent of mineral exports the Namibian government might have to consider entering into a joint ven­ture with the company so that part of the profits could be used more effec­tively to benefit the people, Toivo ya Toivo said.

, 'Several factors militate against outright nationalisation of the dia-

He . said investigations into the mining industry would include a review of prospecting regulations, mining licences and strate~ies for m~dium and long-term exploration. Perhaps even more important was the need to address employment and training.

"We have already secured the services of Finland who will be train­ing our miners here in Namibia and offering specialist training overseas for ·selected miners." Namibia will also be sending its people to Canada for specialist training.

He said on a recent visit to CDM, which accounts for more than 40 per cent of the profits of the multina­tional De Beers Group, he wai ap­palled at the lack of training pro­grammes for black Namibians.

, 'I was flabbergasted to learn there was not a single trained black Na­mibian, all the trained blacks who were pointed out to me came from South Africa.

"I think this is an indictment on a company which has been operating in the country for more than 50 years and which recovered its initial in­vestment in the first few years of its operation," Toivo ya Toivo said.

A 1988 UN economic report indi-

Toivo ya Toivo said the excuse offered by CDM and Rossing that the contract system of employment did ·not lend itself to training in higher skills was a poor excuse as they had instituted the contract system not Namibia.

"The mistake these big corpora­tions make is to impose Western and European styles of employment. ' ,

The Minister said he was, how­ever, heartened to learn that Rossing Uranium had decided to establiSh a mining college in Namibia and he hoped this would develop into a tech­nical centre for other industries.

"Foreign countries, but particu­larly South Africa, have plundered our natural resources with the most reckless disregard. The lack of train­ing programmes is just one area where the people's development has been neglected.

"The attainment of political inde­pendence had already offered the opportunity for all Namibians to overturn the worst effects of colonisa­tion."

However, he warned Namibians that the government had no miracle measures and that change and socio­economic benefits depended on hard work and courage to face and address the challenges ahead.

THREE Namibian Elcin congregation members have been given the chance to go and improve their agricultural skills fu' West . Germany. The three students,have been sponsored by the EKD church in Germany for a six-months practical course in agriculture in Germany. They will be staying and working with German farm families at 1he height of the German farming season. According to the project manager of Rossing's Agricultural Training Centre at Okashana, Wolfgang Lechner, who organised the trip, the purpose of the course is to allow the three to come back and pass their experience on to other Namibian farmers. The three students are pictured here with Mr and Mrs Lechner. They are, from left: Andreas Amadhila from Omuntele, Else Lechner, Set Sasizo, Wolfgang Lechner and Elena Shikanala. All of them said they were very happy to be able to trayel to Germany because of agriculture's importance in Namibia. . •

Government working on 'attractive' tax policy

FINANCE Minister D~· Otto Herrigel said last week the govern­ment was worlcing on a taxatim policy . to make Namibia more attractive to foreign investors.

Herrigel said the recently-an­nounced South African budget held certain tax benefits which the Na­mibian government had to ~onsider,

as the country was in competition with South Africa.

On the qUestion of importiIlg cars directly now that most countries had lifted sanctions against Namibia, Herrigel said that could only happen once specific rightl for the country were negotiated \'lith other members of the SouthAfriclW Customs Union.

Motor Industries Federation chair­person Claus Theissen said becauae Namibia was still a member of the union, a 120 per cent import duty had to be paid on cars.

He said it was not vi~le to import cars from oveqps, as obtaioiDa,~ parts could be difficult. - Sapa

* Unfortunately, due to techni­cal problems beyond The Namib­ian's control, our regular envi­ronmental column did not appear in full on Friday. It is reprinted in full today.

GOREANGAB Dam is next in line for a massive clean-up by the Same 400 pairs of hands which did such a good job in Katutura a few weeks ago.

This big day will take place

soon - in the next couple of weeks - when pupils are back at school after the Independence break.

Litter at Goreangab Dam is awful and has frequently been written about in the papers.

So this effort can only improve the dam which should be kept clean. It's at such a convenient place, near town and Katutura, so people do not have to travel too far to get to it and enjoy them­selves.

THE N~MIBIAN

Therefore the last thing we need o is a health hazard at the very

place where we have a chance to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Already a clean-up operation has been undertaken at Gorean­gab Dam this year by the Wind­hoek Angling Club. But they could not clear all the trash away. Or perhaps more litter was dropped between this week, when I visited the dam, and when they did their good work. . With all the recent rain, Gore­

angab is quite full. But also full of · horrible plastic bottles, papers and tin cans. What a shame for Na­mibia that deposits are not of­fered for returnable containers.

If such a system was to be im­plemented, Namibia's Utter prob-

lems would become so much less serious.

But anyway, winter is going to b~ here very soon and the green grass will goand then much more litter, now under the cover of grass, will be seen again about the dam.

So, if the young hands can get it together to clean the place up, the whole ofWmdhoek should be very grateful to them.

Organiser Lazarus Mambo, who is also a publicity person for the municipality, says the clean­up campaigns are part of an ef­fort to educate people about the importance of keeping their envi­ronment clean.

"The effort also builds up the spirit and pride of people. They have a chance to take part in doing something for themselves. We are

glad to have done the clean-up as a contribution towards Independ­ence as well as Earth Day - on April 22."

Also on the cards, but some time after Earth Day, will be a municipality-organised education seminar on litter in Katutura.

Pictures and photographs about litter will be placed on the walls of certain municipal buildings in Katutura and people will be in­formed on issues such as the health

. problems brought about by lit-tering.

Today, March 21st 1990, we celebrate a service of thanksgiving together with many Christians in Namibia and all over the world.

The "Pro- . tectorate" (" Schutzherrschaft") was a vic;.. lation of subjection of the peoples to Ger­man colonial rule. Fundamental human rights were trodden uilderfoot. Countless men and women lost their lives. We are ashamed of this history.

There were even members of our mission who tried to realise their own aims and ideas in Namibia. Instead of helping the people to preserve their own social struc­tures and develop their own culture fully in the. light of the Gospel, they contributed to

We have been closely bound with the . I people of Namibia for one and a half I centuries. It was the Rhenish Mission I ! which sent out its. first messengers to the I country at that time. Together with Chris­'I tians in Namibia they heard the Word of

We are ashamed that our Mission did not express definite contradiction; neither did it courageously fight against injustice, nor did it resolutely enter into conflict with the defenders of racial ideology.

We are conscious of the · guilt of our people and our Mission resting heavily on us. We ask our sisters and 'brothers in . Namibia for their forgiveness.

On the day of Namibia's Independence, as in October 1977, we confess before God and our brothers and sisters: .

"Lord, we have sinned against you, - because we have denied your image in .

our black brothers and sisters - because we claimed that your Incarna­

We are ready to stand by our partner church in the fUfure also. We shall not cease to thank God and to pray for our brothers and sisters in Namibia. We are confident: "God who began the good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ" . To Him alone be praise and thanksgiving!

R730 miljoen reeds op "pad

THE NAMIBIAN, Monday April 2 1990 9

PRESIDENT Sam Nujoma het die Wereldbank versoek om 'n onafhanklike ondersoek na die Namibiese ekonomie te doen, berig dieNAMBC. ----------- STANLEY KATZAO -----------

Dit is Vrydag deur die direkteur·generaal van die Nasionale Beplanningskommissie, dr. Zedekia Ngavirue, bekend gemaak in 'n onderhoud. Hy het gese 'n duidelike en ewewigtige beskrywing van die Namibiese ekonomie sal in Junie saam met die Namibiese ontwikkelingshulpbeleid aan 'n skenkerskonferensie voorgehou word. Die land se ekonomiese prioriteite sal ook duidelik uitgespel wees.

ANGOLA se ambassadeur sal more die oorste van tientalle diplomatieke afvaardigings woos om sy geloofsbrief aan die President van Namibie, Sam Nujoma, te oorhandig •.

Volgens Ngavirue het die Namibiese President k1aar 'n loodskomitoo aangestel om die ekonomiese beleid van Namibie ujt te werk. Dit sal bestaan uit plaaslike staatsamptenare, lede van die VV se Ontwikkelingsbeplanning (UNDP) en ekonomiese deskundiges van Finland, Senegal en Kameroen. 'n Ander werksgroep sal ook die besonderhede van individuele ontwikkelingsprojekte uitwerk. Dit het bekend geword dat meer as R730 miljoen aan buitelandse hulp reeds na Namibie op pad is.

Ongeluk eis drie : , . .

'n GRUSAME motorongeluk die naweek naby Springbok in Suid­Afrika het die lewe van drie jong Namibiers geeis. Boetietjie van Rooi, 22, van Oranjemund, Bronwell Jansen van Uideritz en Frank (Basin) Kock van Khomasdal, is op slag dood toe die motor waarin hulle gereis het by Springbok buite beheer geraak en omgeslaan het. . Twee jong Namibiers, Cedric Mannetti, en nog 'n vriend het die ongeluk wonderbaarlik oorleef. Volgens wyle Boetie~ie se vader, Oupa van Rooi, gister vanuit Oranjemund sal die begrafnis Saterdag op Port Nolloth plaasvind.

Herrigel soek~ortel DIE 'regering werk aan 'n aantreklike belastingbeleid om buitelandse

beleggers te 10k, het die minister van Finansies, dr. Otto Herrigel, Vrydag gese. In 'n onderhoud met NAMBC het Herrigel gese die SA begroting het sekere

belastingvoordele gehad, wat maak dat die Namibiese regering ditin oorwe­ging moet neem aangesien daar gewedywer sal moet word vir buitelandse beleggers.

Nujoma by SADCC

President Nujoma sal vandeesweek geloofsbriewe van die verskillende diplomatieke afvaardigings inNanu'bie ontvang, waama lrulle heelwaarskynlik volle diplomatieke erkenning as ambassadeurs gegee sal word.

Bespiegelinge die afgelope week in diplomatieke kringe in Windhoek het dit eens gehad dat Angola aan die spits van die diplomatieke korps in die land sal wees, met die gevolg dat die Angolese ambassadeur die eerste geleentheid gegun sal word om sy geloofsbrief aan die President voor te Ie.

Alhoewel daar nie duidelikheid is oor watter soort maatstaf gebruik word om die verskillende lande in volgorde te plaas nie, meen kenners dat die lande volgens belangrikheid ten opsigte van die nuwe regering geplaas sal word.

Politieke kenners meen egter dat alfabetie.se volgorde die mees neu­trale een is, omdat daar nie in so 'n o geval gekyk word na hoe belangrik 'n land vir die nuwe regering is nie ..

Die model wat deur die Verenigde V olke (VV) gebruik word, word ook as 'n neutrale eeIl beskou. In die geval word lande in kronologiese volgorde geplaas soos hulle by die wereldliggaam aansluit of aangesluit het. So is Namibie onderaan die lys van die VV.

Ongeag die neutrale aard vanhier­die ma~tstawwe, veroorsaak Namibie se unieke situasie dat hulle nie oor­weeg kan word nie.

Namibie se onafbanklikheid,spruit uit 'n koloniale era. Heelwat lande het aansienlike bydraes tydens die bevrydingstryd gelewer, terwyl daar andere was wat min of geen bydraes gelewer het nie.

SA m()et saamwerk oor ·Walvis

DIE Namibiese regering se pogings om die lewensstandaard van sy burgers te verbeter, word deur 'n skuldlas en tekort van R1200 miljoen gekortwiek, wat van die vorige Suid-Afrikaanse administrasie geerf is.

S6 het die Namibiese President, Sam Nujoma, gister gese toe hy sy debuut-toespraak voor staatshoofde van die Suider-Afrikaanse Ontwikke­lingskoordineringslande (SADCC) gemaak het. Namibie het ook lid gewordvan SADCC, waarvan An-

' gola, Mosamblek, Malawi, Swaziland, Zambie, Lesotho; Botswana, Tanza­nie en Zimbabwe ook deel vonn.

Nujoma het die' aattvaarding van Namibie as tiende SADCC-lid by die spitsberaad - verwelkom, nadat die wereld se jongste republiek by die tiende herdenkingseremonie in Lusaka formeel opgeneem is in die SADCC.

Nujomahet gese weens die feit dat die oorgeerfcle ekonomie van Namibie

deur die oorlog verniel is, het dit 'n nou basis en lae produktiwiteitS'vlak.

Die probleme daarvan word al hoe duideliker omdat 'n Swapo-regering besluit het om sosiale geregtigheid en ekonomiese groei te vestig.

"Ons erf 'n geweldige begroting­stekort, in die omgewing van R500 miljoen, om nie eens te praat van die immorele 'skuld' vanR700miljoen, wat klaarblyklik in sy geheel aandie' voormalige apartheids- en koloniale regime verskuldig is rue.

"Dit plaas beperkinge op ons ver­moe om projekte van sosiale ophef­fing aan te pale, , , het Nu joma verte!.

Hy het bygevoeg dat Namibie sy beskeie bydrae sal maak om SAOCC-

lede toegang tot die see te gee: N amibie het beheer oor die Liider­

itz-hawe in die suide, maar die SA regime hou steeds sy gre~ op die diepwater-hawe van Walvisbaai.

"Oor die kwessie van Walvisbaai is dit ons verwagting dat die regering van Suid-Afrika sal saamwerk om die probleem so gou as moontlik op te los in die gees van Resolusie 432 van die Verenigde Volke se Veil- :' igheidsraad," het Nujoma gese. -.

Res. 432 verklaar Walvisbaai deel .. van Namibie, asook die aanvaarde grondwet van die nuwe staat.

Die President het ook aangebied om die SADCC-spitsberaad aan­staande jaar in Windhoek te hou.

Sommige was selfs teen Namibie se onatbanklikheid. Dit sal dus nie onregverdig wees as dienuwe reger­ing Zambie, wat onder aan die lys sou wees indien die alfabetiese volgordegebruik word, voor die Ivoorkus plaas nie.

Zambie was die eerste land wat Swapo 'n basis vir sy gewapende stryd gegee het, totdat Angola later hul hootkwartier geword het.

Lusaka het egter Swapo se admin­istratiewe setel gebly en ook die Verenigde V olke se Instituut vir Namibie; waar Namibiese studente studeer het, gehuisves.

Ivoorkus het niks ten opsigte van Namibie se onafllanklikheid gedoen nie, en het hegte bancle met die eer­tydse oorgangsregering en die kolo­niale Pretoria-regime geknoop en gehandhaaf.

Wes-Duitsland wil volgens sekere

bronne eerste op die lys wees. Daar is egter lande, veral die Skandinawiese lande wat Swapo gedurende die bevrydingstryd gedra het, wat baie versigtig sal toekykhoe die regering die diplomatieke prioriteitslys op­stel, en daar sal ongelukkigheid wees as Wes-Duitsland voorkeur kry.

Gister het dit egter bekend geword dat die Frontlinie-state die eerste agt posisies sal inneem, met heelwaar­skynlik die Skandinawiese lande op hulhakke.

Die Arabiese lande, onder andere Iran, een van die enigste drie lande wat Swapo vier jaar gelede volle diplomatieke erkenning gegee het, sal ook in die eerste klomp wees. Indie en Oos-Duitsland is die ander twee wat ook in die eerste groep behoort te wees.

Die seremonies behoort die hele week in beslag te neem.

Twee SA departeinente teen Swapo

DAAR is gerugte dat twee departemente van die Suid·Afrikaanse regering die sogenaamde opposisie·partye teen Swapo in die onatbanklikheidsverkiesings verlede jaar gebelp bet, het 'n KP·Ud van Brakpan, Frank Ie Jtoux, Vrydag in Kaapsta4 in die parlement gese.

Hy het tydens 'n debat gese die aIitwoord wat die SA minister van buitelandse sake, Pik Botha, verlede week gegee het op 'n vraag of die SA regime die partye teenSwapo finansieel en andersins gehelp het, is nikseggend.

Die enigste slotsom waartoe daar gekom kan word, is dat die SA regering defnitief sodanige hulp gegee het.

Volgens gerugte is die DT A een van daardie partye. Ander gerugte wi! dit he dat twee "arms" van die staat twee opposisie-partye in die verkiesings gehelp het.

Die onus is op Botha om meer lig te werp hierop.

FORMER Winibiedon champion Pat Cash said on Friday he intended to marry his Brazilian-born American girlfriend Emily Bendit after proposing to her on St Valentine's Day. '.

, "She must be a bit stupid, she said 'yes' ," Cash told reporters. "I'm not exactly sure when we'll be married. We're still trying to spread the word to all our friends around the world." The 1987 Wimbledon champion proposed to the 25-year-old, described in the Australian press as a retireclnight club hostess, at his London home on February 14. "We're both very happy," he said. The news came a year to the day after Cash announced his seperationfrom his Norwegian girlfriend, Anne-Britt Kristiansen, the mother of his two children, Daniel, 4, 'and Mia, 2.

MOTA RESOLVES FEUD WITH PAF

PORTUGAL'S Olympic and world women's marathon champion Rosa Mota has resolved her two and a haif-year feud with the Portuguese Athletics Federation and agreed to register with the body. "I am very happy to have reached an accord," Mota said on Saturday after the agreement, reached with the help of sport minister Roberto Carneiro. Mota has consistently refused to join any athletic association although she still ran in the 1987 Rome World Championships and the 1988 Seoul Olympics. .. . The agreement resurfaced this year when Mota entered the . ..osaka _. Marathon on January 28. The federation telexed its Japanese counterpart saying Mota was not a member of any recognised federation and could not run. The telex was ignored and Mom went on to win by almost two minutes.

He ma:de unforced error after error to throwaway points and said after­wards he had been troubled by a pulled stomach musCle which par­ticularly affected his serving.

Krickstein, who produced accu­rate; punchy serves and stayed back on the baseline as much as possible, controlled most of the match.

, 'I played well when it was neces­sary and I won a lot of the big points," the American said.

Two double faults in the eighth game cost Korda the first set. At the same stage in the second set, he saved a break point with an ace but then dropped service again.

In the following game, the 22-year-old Czechoslovak was again erratic, saving two set points, squan­dering a break point and then hitting a return into the net to concede the set.

Korda finally ' got it right in the third set, breaking Krickstein' s serv­ice twice and producing some bril­l1afitly-judged shOts. that had ' the partisan crowd applauding wildly.

But a IS-minute interval after the tbridset broke Korda's nm. He failed to convert two break points in the fifth game of the fourth set and was

A SECOND-HALF strike:. by substitute D~.inis Bergkamp gave Ajax,'Amsterdam a 1·0 away 'Yin over .archrivaisFeyenoord Rotterdam that maintained their challenge to Dutch soccer leaders PSV Eindhoven on Sunday.

PSV won 2cO at Vitesse to stay top, two points clear of second-placed Ajax, who have a match in hand. Ajax and Feyenoord were meeting for the 70th time in Dutch league history but the clash failed to live up to expectations, and was settled two minutes after halftime, Bergkamp, a second-half replacement for midfielder WimJonk, saw hishaud shot parried by Feyenoord goalkeeper Joop Hiele but he pounced on the rebound and easily lobbed it home. Feyenoord' s Gerrit Plomp and new Czechoslovak: recruit Stanislav Griga had a number of scoring chances after Bergkamp's goal, but Ajax keeper Stanley Menzo was unyielding. In Amhem, PSV Eindhoven comfortably beat fourth-placed Vitesse with a goal in each half. Juu! Ellerman put the leaders ahead in the 33rd minute from a pass by Wim Kieft, while Kieft himself headed the second goal from a pass by Libero Michel Boerebach.

THE NAMIBIAN, J

SPARTANS VISIT SWAZILAND

CONRAD ANGULA

NAMIBIA has made another major sporting breakthrough • this time in swim~ing. The Spartans Amateur Swimming Club is sending a team of youngstel'fi to Sw~and to participate in their first international meeting after independence.

The experience will be of great importance in motivating young local swimmers and wlll boost their participation in the sport.

With Namibia fr~e from South Africa's colonial claws, the sports world was naturally expected to open its doors to our country· but admission to the international arena was not anticipated so soon.

This has been made possible by the eft'orts of the club"s well·known coach, Cees Jonker, who began contacting various countries with a view to international participa. tion during last year.

Mr Jonker has also made it clear that to ensure a future for our able·

bodied and disabled swimmers a heated pool in Namibia is essential. Most important meetings on the international swimming calendar • such as the World Champion· ships, African Championships, Olympic Games, and the famous B"ritish event at Stoke Mandeville for disabled swimmers • are by. and.large staged during our win· ter. In order for our swimmers to participate, and for their standards to improve, they have to train the whole year around.

Swimmers Hke Monica Dahl, Julia Beck, Kyle Owen·Smith, Tilmann Sonntag and Andreas Dopke, are but a few local youngsters with the

potential to do well agianst tough international competition.

Monica Dahl's recent domina· tion of local women's U·16 frees· tyle and butterfly events, marks her as a particularly promising International competitor.

She continues to Improve rap­idly, setting new records on a regu· lar basis, and could be a candidate for Namibian gold at the 1992 Olympic Games in 1992 in Barce· lona.

The Spartans Amateur Swim· ming Club gave special thanks to Metje & Ziegler, Spatial Cleaning Services and Avis for their spon· sorship.

FIRST NATIONAL BANK SPONSORS RUGBY Stoffel Rocher, manager of the Namibia Rugby Union (NRU) and Hannes Cloete, managing director of First National Bank, inspect the pole on the posts at the South West Stadium which are again being sponsored by First National Bank. The bank's involvement at the stadium this year amounts to R26500.

PETER Reid scored on a rebound with 10 minutes remaining to give Manchester City a 2·1 victory over Aston Villa Sunday and prevent Villa from reclaiming first place in English soccer's first ~vision.

Villa could have moved ahead of Liverpool with a win or a tie at Manchester.

But Reid ended those hopes when he pounced on a free ball that had bounced off the goalpost and sent it into the net to give City victory in the nationally televised game.

III Scotland, Rangers solidified their hold on first place in the premier

division with a 3-0 victory over Glasgow archrival Celtic.

Villa was knocked out of fust place Saturday when Liverpool came from behind to beat Southampton 3-2 at Anfield.

It looked for a while as if liver­pool's hold on firM place would be very temporary.

Gordon Cowans liCoredbis second

goal of the season to put Villa ahead 1-0 in the 12th minute.

But City tied it 1-1 when. Mark Ward scored bis sixth goal of the season in the 26thmimtte, and won it when Reid scored for the mat time in the 80th minute at Maine ROad.

In ()lasgow, Mark Walten, Mo Johnston and Ally McCoist scored for Rangers. .
