As part of encouraging hand hygiene in

workplaces and communities, the Northern

Cape MEC for Health today visited Kimber-

ley Hospital in an attempt to educate our

people about the importance of washing

hands on a regular basis to lessen the chances

of contracting and spreading infectious and

communicable diseases. The World Health

Organization has for the month of May

adopted a theme; ‗encouraging safe hand hy-

giene practices.‘ It has declared the 5th of

May as the Global Hand Washing Day.

The MEC used this day to urge medical pro-

fessionals to be exemplary in practicing safe

hygiene when carrying out their normal daily

scope of practice, as this example will en-

courage communities to care for their well-

being by following the practices that they ob-

serve when making use of our health facili-

ties.

―I am here today to make a pledge with my

Department that we will at all-time practice

safe hygiene as we conduct our daily busi-

ness. We will also make sure that our hands

are clean at any occasion in carrying out our

daily professional responsibilities.‖ MEC

Motlhaping said

The campaign targets all surroundings where

the provision of health care takes place, par-

ticularly hospitals as they are seen as health

facilities that utilizes antibiotics. This cam-

paign further seeks to promote continual,

sustainable and best practices in hand hygiene

at the point of care and to prevent the spread

of infections.

―We will never win the war against infectious

and communicable diseases if we do not ob-

serve the basic principles of hand washing.‖

MEC cautioned

Hands can transmit or spread bacteria and

viruses that can cause diseases like diarrhoea.

Hands contract germs when touching surfac-

es and in everyday actions like when visiting

the toilet, changing baby's nappy, etc. Germs

from faeces can contaminate the hands and

can unintentionally pass into the mouths

when eating or feeding others with unclean

hands.

of their body, before and after handling raw meat, before

putting on gloves and after using gloves, not forgetting

their traditional practices after funeral ceremonies.

Harry Surtie Hospital??? Read page 4

Goeie dag my liewe dierbare en getroue lesers ek hoop dit

gaan geweldig goed met julle !?!?

Ek is heelwat aan die gang en bly steeds elke dag uitgespaar

deur God se genade. Sy uitsonderlike genade is vir ons van

veel groter belang as enigiets anders in die lewe.Ons sit

hierdie afgelope tyd in ‗n geweldige situasie van motor

ongelukke. Dit laat ‗n mens dink:- ―Weet somige motor

bestuurders nog wat is die padreels?‖

As ek terug kyk en dink aan destyds toe daar nog wets ge-

hoorsame burgers in ons land was sou jy nie hierdie onge-

luk syfers in ons land gehad het nie. Destyds se man wat

sonder lisensie gery het was die mees gehoorsame padver-

bruiker want hy wil nie onnodig die verkeerspolisie op hom

hê nie.

Die rede vir my uitlating is die feit omdat ek ook ‗n padver-

bruiker is en lelike ontkomings geondervind het, my voer-

tuid is al driekeer van agter gestamp gelukkig net ligtelik.

Kyk die mede bestuurders nog elke paar sekondes rondom

sy voertuig om seke te maak dit is veilig of is die lewe so

gejaag en speel die geld so ‗n groot rol dat jy liewer sal men-

se dood maak deur nalatigheid

Nee, dit werk nie so nie veiligheid op ons paaie is natuurlik

ons almal se verantwoordelikheid en nie net een person of

die ―Verkeersbeampte‖. Die voertuie op ons paaie raak so

baie daagliks dat die beamptes te min is om behoorlik wette

toe te pas om sodoente die paaie te beveilig

Kom Suid Afrikaners kyk agter jou land en sy inwoners en

nie net agter jouself nie. GOD se woord se immers ―Dra

mekaar se laste‖ Dit se nie jy moet my lewe kom lewe nee

maar gee ten minste om vir mekaar. Lees 1Kor. 13:13

Dus nooit te laat om iets moois van jou lewe te maak nie,

so gaan en strewe daarna om eendag ‗n mens,mens te wees

‗n omgeemens na wie ander kan opkyk.

The Deputy Minister of

Trade and Industry, Mr

Mzwandile Masina says that

the damning unemployment

figures recently released by

Statistics South Africa were

beginning to cause govern-

ment to question the return-

on-investment it is making

in large-scale businesses.

Masina was speaking at the

official launch of the R350-

million MPACT Polymers

facility that was funded by

the Industrial Development

Corporation, in Wadeville

yesterday.

The multi-million project

enjoys the backing of the

Departments of Trade and

industry (the dti), Environ-

mental Affairs (DEA) and

Economic Development

(EDD) in promoting job

creation, the reduction of

landfill waste and improving

the recycled polyethylene

terephthalate (rPET) pro-

duction, that will ultimately

help reduce carbon footprint

of the food and beverage

industry.

―We are beginning to ask

ourselves difficult questions

as government, whether the-

se investments we are mak-

ing in large scale businesses

are worthy of the praise we

give them. It has been twen-

ty-two years of hardship for

our people. We have been

elected to represent them, so

we have to speak firmly on

transformation, even to the

discomfort of some of you

present here today,‖ said

Masina.

Of the 26 clinics earmarked for refurbishment to

enhance HIV counselling and testing in the

Northern Cape, 12 facilities have been successful-

ly completed – while the remaining 14 will be

concluded by mid-May 2016.

The Department of Health partnered with the

Development Bank of Southern Africa (DBSA)

and the German Financial Cooperation (KfW)

Development Bank in a bid to address health

challenges including HIV/AIDS, foetal alcohol

syndrome, TB, substance abuse and other prima-

ry health issues like diabetes and hypertension in

the Northern Cape.

DBSA construction project manager Cyril Gabri-

els confirms a small amount of furniture must still

be placed in the 12 completed clinics – a process

which is currently underway.

―The clinics were identified for refurbishment

through a process of previous cyclical works

completed, planned/budgeted interventions, and

researching areas with the highest impact for HIV

Voluntary Counselling and Testing (HCT). For

example, Mapule Matsepane Clinic was selected

because of its location. This clinic would have a

high impact (in terms of people throughput) if it

had additional consulting rooms for HCT practi-

tioners or general sisters/nurses consulting with

patients,‖ says DBSA project manager Cyril Ga-

briels.

―The project entailed the enhancement of the

amenities to facilitate additional space for clinic

staff and/or HCT practitioners, to make counsel-

ling space available in the clinics. This is part of a

requirement to provide a ‗stigma free‘ and/or pri-

vate space for counselling and testing. This assists

the clinic in providing dignified services to pa-

tients.‖

Gabriels adds the project started in 2003, and

came about as a result of the Deutsche Gesell-

schaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ)

government collaborative initiative to combat

HIV/AIDS.

A first phase was successfully completed in Kwa-

Zulu-Natal and the Eastern Cape in 2010. The

next phase was initiated in 2013 when the North-

ern Cape clinics were selected by the Provincial

Department of Health following an evaluation

process which was completed in 29 clinics.

―Of the- se, three clinics

were considered to have completed works,

or as already having funding allocated to com-

plete an intervention – thus 26 clinics were ear-

marked for refurbishment in the R24,46 million

project,‖ says Gabriels.

―It must be stressed that most planned interven-

tions were specifically targeted as an extension to

the clinic to improve privacy in HCT and to pro-

vide dignified care for patients.‖

While there are several public clinics available to

communities, they are not used optimally for nu-

merous reasons. Communities remain unaware of

the services and benefits on offer; they cannot

afford the time off or the transport costs to ac-

cess clinics; and mostly do not understand the

impact of taking care of their health.

In this regard, two Wellness Days will be held in

the province to raise awareness about the upgrad-

ed clinics, and to increase the information availa-

ble about the accessibility of the services obtaina-

ble at these clinics.

The family health day event held on Friday, 6

May at the Batlharos Stadium in the John Taolo

Gaetsewe District was addressed by the Northern

Cape MEC for Health, Lebogang Motlhaping,

under the theme ‗Banking on your wellbeing‘.

The Northern Cape MEC for Transport, Safety

and Liaison, Ms Pauline Williams has raised con-

cern over accidents that have occurred in the

Province recently, with some claiming lives.

This is a concerning trend that should worry all

road users because human error is the major

contributing factor in most of these cas-

es. Together with our law enforcers we will step

up our operations and Road Safety Education

Campaigns as a Province in addressing this chal-

lenge.

The MEC further makes a clarion call to all our

communities as part of their citizenry responsi-

bility to make sure that everyone is safe and feels

safe on our roads.

The Department is engaged through our Law

Enforcement Directorate to enforce the law

throughout our Province so that we can save

lives.

We are already en route to finalise our plans in

response to the major activities leading towards

the Local Government Elections, Festive Season

and our 365 Days Road Safety Campaign which

is everyone‘s responsibility.

Some of the concerning contributing factors to

crashes and accidents are:

· Driving under the influence of alcohol

· Speeding

· Vehicle Fitness

· Fatigue

· Pedestrian Negligence

We are committed that we will continue to

share road safety messages with communities in

a bid to ensure that people are safe on the roads

and we all work towards saving lives, because the

loss of one life on the road is one too many.

Harry Surtie Hospitaal :-

Dit was einde Februarie die 29ste toe-

gaan ek en my vrou na die bogenoemde

Hospitaal op aanbeveling van Dr Di-

ergaardt. Ek is ‗n baie gesonde man was

nog nooit in ‗n Hospitaal opgeneem nie

tot hierdie tydperk vir my begin het..

Dit was die Maandag nadat ek na vele

gewag eendag gehelp word, is toetse

gedoen bloed getrek en so meer want

volgens die naelbreuk wat ek nou al am-

per meer as 15jaar met my saam dra

moet ek geopereer word. Die Maandag

na alle bloedtoetse en allerhande toetse

is ek terug na my woning en moes

Dinsdag oggend aanmeld by Kliniek.

Dinsdag oggend nadat ek my leer getrek

het gaan ek na die Kliniese afdeling.

Terwyl ek stap na die afdeling

ondervind ek ‗n geweldige brandpyn

wat amper my asem laat staan. Nadat ek

verhalings gekry het en weer kon praat

het ek iemand geroep ,later uitgevind dit

was ‗n portier, en hom gevra om ‗n rol-

stoel te vat en my wegvat.

Die suster wat aan diens was het

onmiddelik gesien dat daar geen wag vir

my kan wees nie want ek ly sleg

op die oog af. Hulle stoot my

onmiddelik na die operasie

afdeling. Ek weet nie hoelank ek

daar was nie maar toe ek uitkom

was ek nie meer dieselfde.

Dit wys die fotos wat ons hier

sien. Dit was eeers net ‗n klein

septiese plekkie waar vir steke eers

uitgetrek is op foto 2 het my maag

heeltemal oopgebars want die

steke was natuurlik te klein. Om

die grrotman se maag toe te hou.

Nadat my rou en dogters opgetree het nadat hulle gesien het ek e nou al paardae met die oopwond hull behandel dit met Aquas cream want die Hospitaal het niks waarmee die wond skoongemaak kon word nie. Dit is hoe die wondgelyk het

na die vier steke uitgehaal is

Ek was baie ongelukkig maar

kon niks doen nie. Daar is

geen sins ‗n manier dat jy as indi-

vidue kan se hierdie is my Dokter

of daardie een. As hierdie situasie

nie verander kan word nie sit ons

met ‗n Hospitaal wat die grootste

sterfte syfer sal het. Ons kan nie

toelaat dat lewendige mense pro-

efkonyne gemaak word nie deur-

dat ‗n klomp buitelandse leerders

by ons Hospitaal kom kanse vat

en sodoente mense laat sterwe..

Mense word geontslaan om net

weer terug te kom om te kom

sterwe. Die susters met jare

ondervinding

mag ook nie

hul kennis

gebruik nie.

Dit raak nou

verregaande.

Rejection is one of Satan's

most effective forms of oppression.

Rejection may keep a sinner from

coming to God for salvation and a

Christian from reaching his or her

full poten-tial in God; it undermines,

breaks, and prevents normal and har-

monious relations between family

members, marriage partners, fellow

workers, and friends. It also distorts

our image of God as a loving heav-

enly Father who loves us and who

wants only the best for us.

The dictionary defines rejection as

“an act of throwing away or discard-

ing someone or something,” which

implies a lack of value in the person

or thing thrown away. Being re-

jected, then, makes us feel valueless

or worthless.

Being denied love is at the

root of rejection. Rejection (whether

active or passive, real or imaginary)

robs Jesus Christ of His rightful po-

sition as Lord in the lives of His

child-ren and keeps believers from

experiencing the vitality and quality

of life He alone can give.

Rejection results in wounding of the

heart—sometimes so painful that the

mind refus-es to deal with it, so we

bury it in our subconscious. Later, it

surfaces in other ways to cause us

problems. Rejection is the greatest

un-diagnosed and most untreated

malady within the Body of Christ

today. Regrettably, a large majority

of those coming for prayer suffer

from feelings of rejection.

Symptoms of Rejection

How do you feel about yourself

(circle each one that applies)?

low self-image insecure withdrawn

personality

self-condemning self-hate try to

please others

worthless believe I am a failure ago-

ny within

inferior question my identity display

a facade

starved for love promiscuous

can’t love spouse

unworthy fear of rejection

don’t know who I am

approval-seeking self-

rejecting feel abandoned

self-accusing can’t accept

love depressed

can’t give love internal

hurt/pain

no lasting relationships earn

acceptance by being good or

by hard work

Root Causes of Rejection

(Outline)

The root causes of rejection can be

found from one or more of a number

of sources, which are listed below (a

thorough explanation of each one

follows):

1. Heritage rejection

2. Generational rejection

3. Timing and manner of conception

4. Events and attitudes of the mother

and father during pregnancy

4A. Factors that may cause

rejection while in-utero

4B. Results of rejection oc-

curring in-utero

5. Rejection caused from the manner

of birth

6. Baby not bonding with the mother

or father

7. Rejection causes after birth

7A. Symptoms of rejection after

birth

8. Being an adopted child, or forced

either to live with relatives or in a

foster home, or to live in a different

culture

8A. Healing from the effects of

adoption

9. Factors that cause rejection during

early childhood

10. Problems in school caused by

teachers or schoolmates (that cause

rejection)

11. Multiple causes of rejection later

in life

12. Factors that cause rejection with-

in a marriage

1. Heritage rejection:

2. Satan is the father of rejection.

Rejection came with Satan's

temptation of Eve and, ultimate-

ly, Adam. There was no rejec-

tion prior to Satan’s temptation,

as "… God saw every thing that

he had made, and, behold, it was

very good" (Gen. 1:31). In ac-

cepting Satan's suggestion to eat

the forbidden fruit, Adam and

Eve rejected God and fell into

disobedience and sin. They were

being covetous (of what the ser-

pent hinted God had denied

them) and rebellious (by over-

stepping the only restriction God

had made).

As a result, they were rejected by

God, cursed, and forced to leave the

garden. Eve (and all the women who

came after her) were promised pain

in childbirth and subjection to man.

God cursed the ground and told Ad

am that he would eat bread by the

sweat of his brow (Gen. 3:16-19).

President Jacob Zuma is willing to step

down in order to recover the ANC's

―integrity‖, a newspaper on Friday reported

senior party sources as saying.

The top ANC members told the Mail &

Guardianthat they had been secretly work-

ing on an "exit strategy" for Zuma, who has

been under fire in recent months over scan-

dals involving the Guptas, the Constitution-

al Court‘s Nkandla ruling and a high court

judgment over his corruption charges that

were dropped by the NPA.

The M&G‘s report comes just under a

month after the Sunday Times reported that

ANC head honchos were working on a plan

to remove Zuma.

ANC leaders had told the Sunday Times at

the party‘s manifesto launch in Port Eliza-

beth that those behind the plan needed to

"buy time and only act after the elections".

They said they were giving Zuma a "long

rope to hang himself".

The M&G reported that a report will be

presented to the ANC‘s National Executive

Committee two weeks from now with rec-

ommendations for Zuma and the party go-

ing forward.

But an NEC member, speaking to the Fri-

day weekly on condition of anonymity, said

they have to work carefully so as not to

―destroy the ANC‖.

In the weeks after the ConCourt‘s Nkandla

ruling, many former leading ANC members

and struggle stalwarts urged Zuma to step

down as president

Among them are former

deputy ANC secretary

general Cheryl Carolus,

former intelligence minis-

ter Ronnie Many ANC

grassroots members have

also been vocal about their

desire for the president to

leave office. Members

from several ANC

branches in the Free State

last month joined a small

group of anti-Zuma

marchers in Bloemfontein.

"In 2007, when other

ANC comrades said Zuma

must be the president, my

region never supported

him, and now we have

been proven right," one

marcher and a regional

working committee mem-

“Vaders, moenie julle kinders verbitterd laat

voel nie, anders sal hulle mismoedig word.”—

Kolossense 3:21,

HOE kan ‘n vader dit vermy om sy kinders verbitterd

te laat voel? Dit is noodsaaklik dat hy besef hoe bel-

angrik sy rol as vader is. ―‘n Vader speel in werklikheid

‘n komplekse en unieke rol met verreikende gevolge vir

die emosionele en intellektuele ontwikkeling van

kinders‖, sê een tydskrif oor geestesgesondheid.

Wat is die rol van ‘n vader? In baie gesinne word die

vader hoofsaaklik beskou as die een wat dissipline ui-

toefen. Menige moeder het al vir ‘n stout kind gesê:

‗Wag net totdat jou pa by die huis kom!‘ Ja, kinders het

gebalanseerde dissipline en ‘n mate van fermheid nodig

om goed aangepaste volwassenes te word. Maar om ‘n

goeie vader te wees, behels veel meer.

Ongelukkig het nie elke vader ‘n goeie voorbeeld gehad

om hom te help nie. Party mans het sonder ‘n vader in

die huis grootgeword. Maar in ander gevalle is mans

wat deur ‘n onbuigsame, streng vader grootgemaak is,

soms geneig om hulle kinders op dieselfde manier te

behandel. Hoe kan ‘n vader so ‘n kringloop verbreek

en sy vaardighede as ouer verbeter?

Daar is ‘n bron van praktiese en betroubare raad oor

hoe om ‘n goeie vader te wees. Die Bybel bevat die

beste raad oor die gesinslewe. Die raad daarin is nie

blote teorie nie; en die riglyne wat dit gee, benadeel ons

nooit nie. Die Bybel se raad weerspieël die wysheid van

die Outeur daarvan, Jehovah God, die Insteller van die

gesinsreëling (Efesiërs 3:14, 15). As jy ‘n vader is, sal

dit goed wees as jy kyk na wat die Bybel oor ouerskap

sê.*

Om ‘n goeie vader te wees, is nie net belangrik vir die

fisiese en emosionele welsyn van jou kinders nie, maar

ook vir hulle geestelike welsyn. ‘n Kind sal dit dalk selfs

makliker vind om ‘n hegte en intieme verhouding met

God op te bou as hy ‘n baie liefdevolle en hegte ver-

houding met sy vader het. Die Bybel toon immers dat

Jehovah, ons Skepper, in sekere sin vir ons ‘n Vader is

(Jesaja 64:8). Kom ons kyk nou na ses dinge wat

kinders van hulle vader nodig het. Ons sal sien hoe die

toepassing van Bybelbeginsels ‘n vader kan help om in

elkeen van hierdie behoeftes te voorsien.

1 Kinders het hulle vader se liefde nodig

Jehovah stel die volmaakte voorbeeld as ‘n Vader. Die

Bybel beskryf hoe God oor Jesus, sy eersgebore Seun,

voel en sê: ―Die Vader het die Seun lief‖ (Johannes

3:35;Kolossense 1:15). Jehovah het by meer as een

geleentheid sy liefde vir sy Seun uitgespreek en gesê dat

Hy hom goedkeur. Toe Jesus gedoop is, het Jehovah

uit die hemel gepraat en gesê: ―Jy is my Seun, die

geliefde; ek het jou goedgekeur‖ (Lukas 3:22). Jesus het

nooit getwyfel dat sy Vader hom liefhet nie. Wat kan ‘n

mensevader uit God se voorbeeld leer?

Moet nooit aarsel om vir jou kinders te sê dat jy hulle

liefhet nie. Kelvin, ‘n vader van vyf, sê: ―Ek het altyd

probeer om my kinders te verseker van my liefde deur

nie net vir hulle te sê dat ek hulle liefhet nie, maar ook

deur persoonlike belangstelling in elkeen van hulle te

toon. Ek het gehelp om hulle doeke om te ruil en hulle

te bad.‖ Daarbenewens moet jou kinders weet dat hulle

jou goedkeuring wegdra. Moet dus nie te krities wees

en hulle voortdurend teregwys nie. Prys hulle eerder

gereeld. Donizete, wat twee tienerdogters het, beveel

die volgende aan: ―‘n Vader moet na geleenthede soek

om sy kinders te prys.‖ As jou kinders weet dat hulle

jou goedkeuring wegdra, kan dit hulle help om ‘n

gesonde gevoel van eiewaarde te hê. Dít kan hulle help

om nader aan God te kom.

2 Kinders het ‟n goeie voorbeeld nodig

Jesus kan ―net [doen] wat hy die Vader sien doen‖,

sê Johannes 5:19. Let op dat die teks sê dat Jesus gesien

en gedoen het wat sy Vader ―doen‖. Kinders sal

dikwels dieselfde doen. As ‘n vader byvoorbeeld sy

vrou met respek en waardigheid behandel, sal sy seun

vroue heel moontlik ook met respek en waardigheid

behandel wanneer hy grootword. Dit is nie net seuns se

gesindheid wat deur hulle vader se voorbeeld geraak

word nie; meisies se beskouing van mans kan ook deur

hulle vader se voorbeeld beïnvloed word.

Vind jou kinders dit moeilik om om verskoning te vra?

Weer eens is die voorbeeld wat gestel word, belangrik.

Kelvin onthou ‘n keer toe twee van sy seuns ‘n duur

kamera gebreek het. Hy het so kwaad geword dat hy

met sy vuis op ‘n houttafel geslaan het en dit in twee

gebreek het. Later het Kelvin baie sleg gevoel en vir

almal, insluitende sy vrou, om verskoning gevra dat hy

sy humeur verloor het. Hy meen dat sy verskoning ‘n

positiewe uitwerking op sy kinders gehad het; hulle

vind dit glad nie moeilik om te sê dat hulle jammer is

nie.

4 Kinders moet geestelike waardes geleer word

Jesus is deur sy Vader geleer. Jesus kon dus sê: ―Die

dinge wat ek by hom [die Vader] gehoor het, dié spreek

ek in die wêreld‖ (Johannes 8:26). In God se oë is ‘n

vader verantwoordelik vir die sedelike en geestelike

opvoeding van sy kinders. Een van jou verant-

woordelikhede as ‘n vader is om die regte beginsels in

jou kinders se harte in te skerp. Hierdie opleiding moet

op ‘n vroeë ouderdom begin (2 Timoteus 3:14, 15).

Felix het vir sy seun Bybelverhale begin lees toe hy nog

klein was. Hy het kleurvolle, interessante verhale ge-

bruik, insluitende dié in My boek met

Bybelverhale.* Toe sy seun ouer word, het Felix ander

Bybelpublikasies gebruik wat vir sy seun se ouderdom

gepas was.

Donizete sê: ―Dit is werklik ‘n uitdaging om gesinstud-

ie van die Bybel aangenaam te maak. Dit is belangrik

dat ouers toon dat hulle geestelike dinge waardeer,

aangesien kinders teenstrydighede gou raaksien.‖ Car-

los, wat drie seuns het, sê: ―Ons hou ‘n weeklikse

vergadering om die gesin se behoeftes te bespreek.

Elke lid van die gesin het die geleentheid om te kies

wat bespreek moet word.‖ Kelvin het altyd probeer om

met sy kinders oor God te praat, ongeag waar hulle was

of waarmee hulle besig was. Dit herinner ons aan Mo-

ses se woorde: ―Hierdie woorde wat ek jou vandag

beveel, moet in jou hart wees; en jy moet dit by jou

kind inskerp en daaroor praat wanneer jy in jou huis sit

en wanneer jy op die pad loop en wanneer jy gaan lê en

wanneer jy opstaan.‖—Deuteronomium 6:6, 7.

5 Kinders het dissipline nodig

Kinders het dissipline nodig om produktiewe en

verantwoordelike volwassenes te word. Party ouers

dink blykbaar dat hulle hulle kinders op ‘n harde ma-

nier, soos met kwaai dreigemente of neerhalende

beledigings, moet behandel wanneer hulle hulle dissi-

plineer.

Kinders moet beskerm word teen onheilsame

invloede en assosiasie wat vir hulle skadelik kan wees.

Ongelukkig is daar ―goddelose mense‖ in hierdie

wêreld wat daarop uit is om onskuldige kinders te mis-

bruik (2 Timoteus 3:1-5, 13).

Soek God se hulp

Die grootste geskenk wat ‘n vader sy kinders kan gee,

is om hulle te help om ‘n sterk persoonlike verhouding

met God op te bou. ‘n Vader se voorbeeld is uiters

belangrik. Donizete sê: ―Vaders moet toon hoe kos-

baar hulle verhouding met God vir hulle is. Dit moet

veral duidelik wees wanneer hulle voor persoonlike

probleme of moeilikhede te staan kom. By sulke

geleenthede toon die vader hoe groot sy vertroue in

Jehovah is. Gesinsgebede, waarin God herhaaldelik

bedank word vir Sy goedheid, sal kinders leer hoe bel-

angrik dit is om God as hulle Vriend te hê.‖

Wat is dan die sleutel tot goeie vaderskap? Raadpleeg

die een wat die beste weet hoe om kinders groot te

maak—Jehovah God. As jy jou kinders volgens die

riglyne in God se Woord oplei, sal jy heel moontlik die

resultate sien wat in Spreuke 22:6 beskryf word: ―Ook

as hy oud word, sal hy nie daarvan afwyk nie.‖

Congress of the People sê president

Jacob Zuma behoort in dieselfde

bootjie te

gewees het as

president Dil-

ma Roussef

van Brasilië

wat gister in

‗n staat van

beskuldiging

geplaas is. Sy

word beskuld-

ig van die onwettige manipulering

van syfers om ‗n groeiende be-

grotingstekort te verbloem voor haar

herkiesing in 2014. Cope sê die swak-

heid van Suid-Afrika se kiesstelsel is

oor die afgelope paar maande

uitgewys toe talle pogings om teen

Zuma op te tree, misluk het omdat

die ANC-koukus bestaan uit parle-

mentslede en ministers wat van hom

afhanklik is vir hulle poste.

Brasilië se waarnemende president,

M i c h e l

Temer, sê

dit is nood-

saaklik om

die vrede te

herstel, die

land te

herenig en

‗n regering

te vorm wat

die nasie sal red. Hy het na Roussef

se skorsing gesê Brasilië se geloof-

waardigheid moet tuis en in die bui-

teland herstel word om nuwe beleg-

gings te lok en die ekonomie weer

aan die gang te kry.

Adjunkpresident Cyril Ramaphosa sê

‗n sentrale spilpunt om alle infra-

struktuur-projekte te bestuur kan

werk in die res van Afrika net soos in

Suid-Afrika. Hy het op die

Wêreldekonomiese Forum Afrika in

Rwanda gepraat tydens ‗n bespreking

oor vennootskappe wat finansi-

erings-gapings vir

ekonomiese en maatskaplike infra-

struktuur kan oorbrug. Ramaphosa

sê infrastruktuur was ‗n sleutel-

ekonomiese aandrywer in Suid-

Afrika en die streek en die koör-

dinering van die ontwikkeling daar-

van het groot voordele ingehou.

Die minister van Vervoer, Dipuo

Peters, het die Burgerlugvaartower-

heid gevra om ‗n ondersoek te doen

na die oorsaak van drie ongelukke

met ligte vliegtuie die afgelope twee

dae. ‗n Vliegtuig het eergister in Mid-

rand in ‗n veld neerg-

estort, maar albei insit-

tendes het oorleef.

Dieselfde dag is ‗n man

dood toe ‗n vliegtuig

by Herbertsdale in die

Suid-Kaap geval het,

en gister het een mens

gesterf toe ‗n vliegtuig

neergestort het naby

die Kitty Hawk-vliegveld in Pretoria.

Peters sê die ondersoek moet die

optrede en geestelike ingesteldheid

van die vlieëniers insluit, asook hulle

kwallifikasies om te vlieg.

About 63% of young South African

children live in poverty, which can

affect their physical, cognitive and

emotional development, a new study

has found.

The study, a joint publication be-

tween Ilifa Labantwana, the Chil-

dren‘s Institute at the University of

Cape Town and the Department of

Planning, Monitoring and Evaluation

in the Presidency, was published in

the South African Early Childhood

Review.

The publication provides data, analy-

sis and commentary on over 40 sta-

tistical indicators measuring the pro-

gress of Early Childhood Develop-

ment (ECD) service delivery across

multiple government departments,

including health, social development

and education. ECD focuses mostly

on children, from birth to six years

of age.

The study found that about 3 969

000 young South African children

live in poverty, with the Eastern

Cape, KwaZulu-Natal and Limpopo

having the highest rates.

According to the study, children

growing up in poverty may be affect-

ed later in life due to not receiving

the services and care they need.

"Shortfalls in early childhood devel-

opment are difficult to correct as

time goes by. These children are al-

ways playing catch up and the educa-

tion gap between them and their

peers widens over time," Sonja

Giese, executive director of Ilifa La-

bantwana – an NGO working to

promote ECD, and co-author of The

SA Early Childhood Review - said at

the launch of the publication.

'Needs further improvement'

According to Giese, the figure of

63% of children growing up in pov-

erty was a big improvement on

2003‘s 80%, although this percent-

age was still too high.

According to Katherine Hall - co-

author of the report and researcher

at the Children‘s Institute - the re-

view found that there had been some

improvements with regards to the

healthcare sector, where the percent-

age of children who were completely

immunised by their first birthday had

increased from under 70% in 2002

to 90% in 2014.

"This needs further improvement,

however," Hall said, referring to re-

search showing that 46% of preg-

nant woman were still having their

first medical check-up only after 20

weeks.

Parents were urged to visit health

facilities in order to prevent Vitamin

A deficiencies.

While poverty may affect children,

the parents also sometimes became

subject to depression and anxiety

due to the stress of having a child.

"Both antenatal and postnatal de-

pression and anxiety are huge prob-

lems, affecting an estimated one-

third of mothers," Hall added.

Giese said that the Child Support

Grant (CSG) has seen the highest

rate of growth of all social grants in

South Africa, reaching almost 12

million children.

"The CSG has been shown to have a

substantial developmental impact on

children and their families living in

poverty. Our challenge now is to en-

sure that caregivers access the grant

as soon as possible after the child is

born, so as to ensure that the child is

able to benefit when it matters

most."

President Jacob Zu-

ma was innocent until

proven guilty in the spy

tapes saga and remained

ANC leader, the party in

KwaZulu-Natal said on

Wednesday. "This is of

course a national matter.

But we maintain that

President Zuma is our

leader and we support

him. He is the head of

our organisation."

The High Court in Pre-

toria ruled on Friday

that former National

Prosecuting Authority

(NPA) head Mokotedi

Mpshe‘s decision in

April 2009 to drop cor-

ruption charges against

Zuma was irrational and

should be set aside.

The full bench of the

court found Zu-

ma should face

the 783 charges

of corruption.

The charges re-

late to Zuma‘s

alleged involve-

ment in the

country‘s multi-

billion-rand

arms deal.Mpshe based

his decision on the so-

called spy tapes -

recorded conversations

between then-Scorpions

boss Leonard McCarthy

and former National

Prosecuting Authority

head Bulelani Ngcuka.

The two were recorded

discussing the timing of

bringing charges against

Zuma. Mpshe felt this

showed political inter-

ference in the case.

Eskom se

uitvoerende

hoof, Brian

Molefe, het

beloof dat

Suid-Afrika

nooit weer

hê nie en sê

as dit wel sou

gebeur, sou

dit weens sabotasie wees. Hy sê

die kragvoorsiener se

beskikbare energie het verbeter

van sewentig persent in Ok-

tober tot 76 persent verlede

maand. Eskom het ook vol-

doende steenkoolvoorraad vir

die volgende vyf jaar. Molefe

het egter verklaar dat Eskom

gedwing kan word om weer

diesel te gebruik as daar onver-

wagte probleme by kragstasies

in die winter voorkom. Eskom

het verlede jaar meer as ‗n

miljard Rand per maand vir

diesel betaal.

Maleisiese en Australiese

woordvoerder het bevestig

dat wrakstukke wat in Suid-

Afrika en Mauritius

uitgespoel het, afkomstig is

van die vermiste

Maleisiese vliegtuig

MH370. Die vlieg-

tuig het in Maart

2014 spoorloos

verdwyn op ‗n vlug

vanaf Kuala Lum-

pur na Beijing met

239 mense aan

boord. ‗n Arge-

oloog, Neels Kru-

ger, het in Maart ‗n

wrakstuk op ‗n strand naby

Mosselbaai aan die Kaapse

Suidkus gevind terwyl ‗n

hotelgas verlede maand die

ander stuk gekry het op die

eiland Rodrigues in Mauri-

tius. Vyf bevestigde

wrakstukke is nou reeds

van die vliegtuig gekry.

gekom toe hy van sy mid-

dagslapie wakker geword het.

Haar hande en voete was

President Jacob Zuma

missed door-to-door meet-

ings in Shoshanguve in Pre-

toria on Friday morning,

apparently because his

plane malfunctioned in

Uganda, causing a delay

in his flight.

Nomvula Mokonyane,

the head of the ANC's

election campaign, told

disappointed supporters

that Zuma had only ar-

rived in South Africa in

the early hours of Friday

morning, and that he

had important meetings

to attend, including one

with Chief Justice

Mogoeng Mogoeng.

"The government jet

was unable to depart in

Uganda," she said in So-

tho, adding that the

plane would not start.

Mokonyane did not

elaborate further and it

was not immediately clear

exactly what had happened

and how Zuma had eventu-

ally returned to South Afri-

ca. The Presidency was not

immediately reachable for

comment on Friday morn-

ing.

The defence ministry this

week announced that a new

jet would be bought for the

Presidency. Zuma and Dep-

uty President Cyril Rama-

phosa have been left strand-

ed several times this year

due to breakdowns of the

presidential Boeing 737,

known as Inkwazi.

Mokonyane said she and

other ANC officials were

there in Soshanguve on Fri-

day to do party work.

his work... to represent him,

Australiese krieketspeler Phil Hughes het bevind dat

die British Standard-kopskerm wat nou verpligtend

is, nie sy lewe sou gered het nie.

Die legendariese

krieketkommentator van die

Wes-Indiese Eilande, Tony

Cozier, is op 75 oorlede. Hy

het in 1958 oor die Karib-

biese Eilande se krieketspan

begin verslag doen en ‗n

huishoudelike naam geword

nadat hy saam met media-

organisasies soos BBC en

Sky begin werk het. Die

Windies se beheerraad sê hy

het ‗n reuse bydrae tot die

spel gemaak. Die hoof van

Krieket Australië, James

Sutherland, sê Cozier was ‗n

‗n Verslag oor die dood van

die Australiese krieketspeler

Phil Hughes het bevind dat

gered het nie. ‗n Bal het hom

teen die kop getref tydens ‗n

wedstryd in Sydney in No-

vember 2014 en hy is twee

dae later in die hospitaal

dood. Volgens die ondersoek

sou ‗n ander kopskerm nie ‗n

verskil gemaak het nie weens

die posisie waar die bal sy

kop getref het. Die onder-

soek beveel aan dat alle

eersterangse spelers verplig

word om ‗n kopskerm te dra
