The Limpopos 142 permitted
initiation schools have commenced
on the 14June 2013 and will end on
the 13 July 2013.
The turnout is still low due to the
fact that academic schools have not
yet closed.
The Limpopo House of
Traditional Leaders has dispatched
a team to investigate allegations of
illegal schools opened in Capricorn,Waterberg, Sekhukhune and Mopani
Districts.
The MEC for CoGHSTA, Mr.
Clifford Motsepe called on all permit
holders to adhere to initiation school
prescripts and encouraged parents
to verify the legitimacy of initiation
schools they intend sending their
children to with their respective
Traditional Authorities.
All these efforts are to ensure that
the epochal practice achieves the
intended cultural objectives - without
anyone giving it a bad name.
The Working Committee on
Initiation Schools meets on a weekly
basis to consider reports compiled
by frontline staff from various
initiation school sites.The front line staff is from
CoGHSTA, the Health Department
and Policerespectively. Their role is
to monitor these initiation schools to
ensure an incident free season.
Currently there is no incidents
reported.
The Department appreciates the
cooperation of Traditional Leaders
for their support in ensuring that
Limpopo is ready to host initiates and
to have death free initiation season.
Once again the Department
strongly requests communities,
particularly parents or guardians to
send their children to the approved
initiation schools in the five districts
of the Limpopo Province.
For the approved or legitimatename list please do not hesitate to
contact the departmental call center
on 0800 687 432.

Fun day
with
Leboeng
PoliceOn Thursday 2013-06-13 children fromMokgalapula Crche of Leboeng (GaMabelane village) and Motshabeng Creche
from Ga Mashamothane visited Leboeng
SAPS.
The young ones enjoyed their day with the
station commander, Captain Solomon
Moholane.
The purpose of their visit was to inform
them about the Police and show them in
practice what the Police do to keep citizens
safe. Their teacher, Mrs Salmina Mashele
says the children are always asking to see
police officials and most of them said they
want to become police officers when they are
grown up. Then they want to arrest the
criminals ....
Constable Ando Maake guided the
toddlers through the Police station andshowed them the inside of a Police van,
creating much exitement.
Captain Moholane say This partnerships
with learners help us to eradicate the root
causes of crime. Most of the youth find
themselves behind bars at an early age. In
the photograph posing with the little ones are
Captain Moholane, Constable Maake, Mrs
Mashele, Mrs Lindiwe Mogakala and Mrs
Maitana Sedibe.
Aloe Marlothii is a large, perennial, succulent, single-stemmed aloe, usually 2-4 m tall
(occasionally up to 6 m), with old dried leaves remaining on the stem below the upper
living leaves. Leaves are large, broad and succulent, light green to greyish green to blue-
green, up to 1500 x 250 mm, having a broad base tapering to a sharp point, covered with
spines on upper and lower surfaces and maroon- coloured teeth with orange tips along
leaf margins. Aloe Marlothiioccurs from the North-West Province, Gauteng, Limpopo,
Mpumulanga, Swaziland, Zimbabwe, Botswana and Mozambique to KwaZulu-Natal north
of Durban, from sea level to 1 600 m. In Platinum Gazettesdistribution area, they are
very common.
As the valleys are they spread forth,
as gardens by the rivers side, as the
trees of aloes which the Lord hath
planted, [and] as cedar trees beside the
waters.

Consumers are struggling to keep their credit
record clean. According to the National CreditRegulator the number of impaired records is
now standing at 9.53 million. Impairedrecords are those consumers who are threeor more payments or months in arrears, orhas been handed over or written off, or
against which a judgement/administrationorder has been obtained.Government is currently considering credit
amnesty for financially impaired consumers.
Banks are however objecting to this asconsumers could walk out with a clean slateand this will make judging the risk of lendingmoney to them in future much more difficult.According to the TransUnions quarterly
consumer credit index, credit health hasdeteriorated in South Africa for the fourthconsequtive quarter.
Only 10.55 million consumers in South Africaare currently being rated as in good creditstanding.
Research shows that consumers tend todefault on school fees first, then on rent andinsurance.Unsecured lending over the past five years
also contributed to the current situation.Approximately R30 thousand million in
unsecured loans were granted like this in the
past year. The interest rate on suchunsecured loans is very high and contributesto the repayment struggle.According to Ms. Bernadene de Clercq, headof Unisas personal finance unit especiallylow income groups need the debt to finance
their living expenses. They need it to survivedue to the increases in living costs. They arenot necessarily wasting money through the
debt they obtain, they are merely trying tosurvive, she explained.Recently during the State of the Local
Municipality Address the people of Tubatsewas said to have employment and money,hence the efforts to bring shopping malls anda casino to the area.
We asked readers if they think the people inthis area also struggle with debt and why they
have that opinion.
Mr Brisco Matlala said: The majority ofpeople in this area are low-income peopleand the standard of living is very high. Theyare bound tight with all their debt. They makedebt for necessities. Food is expensive.
Mr Delphas Malatji said: Ja, debt here is abig problem. The problem is people usemoney they dont really have. The furniturestores are also guilty. They screen people for
credit, but still give it to people who are notgoing to be able to pay it back.
Mnr. Frans Maphanga s: Dis n probleem.By Burgersfort is die geld baie, maar diemense wil altyd nuwe goed h en dan maakhulle skuld. Hulle koop op die rekening of
credit card.
Mr Karim Dadie said: Yes, I work at
Burgersfort Pharmacy. Ive been here for amonth or so now. I see that if a patient walksin and needs something that is not on
medical aid, they will not take R10 to buy itout of their pockets. If you have disposableincome, you are willing to take the cash fornecessities. This is to me the indication of
people in the areas debt and cash flowsituation.
Mr Zacharia Setshabe said: People in thisarea have a problem with debt as well.Sometimes people want things they did notplan for. People want new cars and clothesetc. Then they open accounts to get it.
Mr Shadreck Pandala said: It is a problem.We do not live in a separate South Africa.Economic conditions affect everyone. Noteveryone in this area works for a mine.Things go up and peoples income is not
enough. You go into a shop with R1000 and
come out with nothing. There is money inTubatse but it is in the hands of a few.
Mr Eric Ndukula said: Im not sure about the
debt problem here, but in general peoplehave a lot of debt. People dont check thatthey will be able to pay loans back. Peopleend up paying debt with debt. We have to
learn to save. People should stop going forcredit. Teach the kids to start saving. Withhim is Tshepo.
Ms Boledi Masete said: Many people offerloans. Cash loans and loans for buying
furniture. I think these people are a problem.
A lot of people also have cash loans theyhave to repay and this makes them struggle.They dont plan to get through on the moneythey earn.
Links: Mnr. Hendrik Heyneke s: Skuld ismaar n probleem oral. As jy net sien hoe diemense in Burgersfort bly dan kan jy sienskuld is n probleem. Mikrolenings is net so n
groot probleem. By hom is LaroshallHeyneke, Dylan, Aiden en Jessica asookYolandie Erasmus.

Regs: Mnr. LeonLombard s: Skuldhier is nie so n grootprobleem soos in die
stad nie. Mense hierverdien meer as indie stad. Ek het opdie radio gehoorhulle s mense krykrediet al is hulle op
die swartlys en dit isn probleem. Watplaaslike
ontwikkeling betrefdink ek hoe meerbesighede hier kom
hoe beter.By hom is Reniqueen Edward.
Mr Phillip Mushaikwa said: It is in general aproblem. If you look at South Africa theeconomy is consumer driven. Burgersfort is amining area and salaries tend to be high.
People are given big buying power and they
use it whether they have the money in handor not. Businesses here also seem to raiseprices and things are seldom bought withcash. A lot needs to be done in this area interms of financial literacy. You must first work
and then earn.
Mr Maxy Selahle said: It is a problem here.We spend money to impress others. Just tocompete people buy things. Many young
people work in the mines and dont know how
to wisely spend their money. They dont thinkabout the future. What will happen if the placewhere you work have to scale down due tothe tough economy? Will you have savings?
Mnr. Assie van Aswegen s: Die heleLimpopo is vrot van die skuld. Alles watgebou word is tot voordeel van kontrakteurs.Die geld gaan nie na plaaslike mense nie,
maar na kontrakteurs. Mense het nie geldnie.
Mnr Jan Rammutla s: Die mense het nie
geld hier by ons nie. Ons het baie skuld.Cashloansvat baie van die geld.
Ms Samantha Matete said: People arealright around here. They dont owe too
much money and know how to save.
Mr Given Kgoete (right) said: People of Burgersfort get too much money. They dont owethat much. Debt is not a problem here. Mr Frans Lewele said: People here dont havemoney. It often works that a boss gets R25 000 a month and the worker only R1500 a month.
How can you live on R1500 a month and provide for your family? We go to the cashloans tosurvive.
Ms Patricia Riba said: There is a lot of debtin Burgersfort. Clothing accounts is aproblem. People want all the new things.
Ms Jane Malepe said: People have lots of
loans here. They struggle to pay it back. Theywant to stay in a nice house and have a nicecar so they have too many accounts.
Above: Mr Petrus
Mohlala said: Thereis debt around here.This is because ofthe shortage of jobs.People dont haveexperience here and
the open spaces arefilled with peoplefrom other areas.
People here try to
survive on loans.They get too manyloans.
