GRUESOME ATTACK: INSURANCE CLAIM DENIED

Prasa shrugs shoulders

DESIRE RORKE

@dezzierorke

P

rasa recently denied liability in a pas-

senger liability claimof anelderlyman

whowas brutally attacked and injured

while waiting for his train on Brackenfell

Station.

Hennie Feyt (63) fromProteaVillage takes

the train to his place of work in Goodwood

every second Sunday.

On Sunday 3 December last year, he had

no idea of the nightmare that awaited him

on the station platform.

Being Sunday morning the station was

quiet and it was only Hennie and two more

passengers who sat waiting for the Cape

Town bound train, said his wife Hilletje in

an interview last week.

It was about 08:00 when the attack oc-

curred.

At the time a female Metrorail security

officer was patrolling the other side of the

platform, right opposite Hennie. No other

guards were in sight, she says.

The next moment Feyt felt a hard blow to

his head.

His attacker was standing right behind

him and continued to slash at him with a

knife as he turned around in an attempt to

defend himself.

He was stabbed in the head, sliced open

in his neck, on his hand and his face. His

jacket and shirt were sliced into shreds as

he warded off the attack. He later told me

that he was sure he would die that day, she

says.Minutes later a group ofmen ran to his

aid.

It was six or seven other Metrorail secu-

rity guards who were called on the radio by

the female security officer on the other side

of the platform. She witnessed the entire at-

tack, but we are not sure where the others

were at the time of the attack, as they were

nowhere in sight when Hennie entered onto

the platform.

The female security officer, according to

Feyt, contacted her the followingweek to en-

quire after Hennies condition.

She toldme that she witnessed the attack

and felt helpless as she couldnot doanything

as awomanalone. She also expressedher an-

ger at the fact that the other security person-

nel were not at hand to prevent the attack.

She genuinely showed concern for my hus-

band and I later included her name and con-

tact number in the claim as a witness to the

attack, says Feyt.

The security officers apprehended the at-

tacker, a 25-year-old man from Paarl, and

tried to stop the bleeding while waiting for

the ambulance. The attacker was later ar-

rested by the Brackenfell police and his

hearing is currently pending at the Kuils

River Magistrates Court.

Feyt was taken to hospital where he was

treated for his wounds.

NOTIFICATION OFA ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT

ASSESSMENT PROCES

The amendment only pertains to the

section of the approved development toward the north of the

Bottelary River and within the site boundary as per the

existing approval. The main reason for the amendment is due

to a request from the City of Cape Town to substantially

increase the density of the development. It was also noted that

there is a large market demand for business and retail space

along Saxdowns road to form part of this development. The

purpose of this amendment is thus for a substantive change in

the land use composition of the approved development area.

To register as an Interested and Affected party and comment

on the proposed amendment report, please send your name,

address, contact details, preferred method of communication

as well as the reason for interest to the following address: Mr

Brakkies onthou hul helde

B

oeta Kleynhans, wat in 2006 aan die

Horskool Brackenfell gematrikuleer

het, was vanjaar en verlede jaar lid

van die Maties se Varsity Cup-rugbyspan.

Daarom is die skool onlangs vereer met

n pienk Varsity Cup-rugbybal, met die na-

me daarop gedruk van al die Varsity Cup-

spelers wat later vir die Springbokspan ge-

kies is.

Hierdie gebaar van die Universiteit Stel-

lenbosch (US) het groot impak op die Hor-

skool Brackenfell gemaak. Daar is toe ver-

der in die verlede gedelf en onthou dat

Courtnall Skosan (matriek-2009) in Tukkies

se Varsity Cup-rugbyspan was. Courtnall is

pas gekies vir die SA A-rugbyspan, s die

trotse skoolhoof, Andr Pretorius.

Op die netbalfront het die vroue ook nie

agtergebly nie. Charmaine Baard (matriek-

2013) is die afgelope twee jaar lid van die US

se Varsity Cup-netbalspan. Sy is ook genooi

na die SA senior netbalproewe n n uit-

muntende reeks wedstryde op doel en hulp-

doel vir die Southern Stings (senior Wes-

Kaapse streekspan).

N die SA oefenkamp, is Charmaine ge-

kies vir die SAo.21-netbalspan, voeg hy by.

DaarbywasCorneli Ferreira (matriek-2001)

die eerste Brakkie wat vir dieMaties se eer-

ste netbalspan gespeel het. Sy het in 2004 en

2005 virMaties in die Sassu en USA (destyd-

se inter-universiteite toernooie) gespeel. Sy

was ook vir twee jaar lid van die Tornados,

die senior Wes-Kaapse streekspan en se-

vierende senior Bolandse A-netbalspan.

Thankfully his injuries were not life

threatening and apart from the trauma, he

recovered well, says Hilletje.

After they lodged a complaint on the Met-

rorail customer service line, the Feyts were

contacted byPrasa and instructed to submit

a liability claim. The forms were completed

in detail and sent to them.

We only claimed a few thousand rand to

cover our medical expenses as well as loss

of income due tomy husband not being able

to work for a while.

After waiting for several months, the

Feyts were last week advised that their

claim had been unsuccessful.

A broker from Prasas insurance compa-

ny told me that they have finalised their in-

vestigation and found that Prasawas not re-

sponsible for the attack and therefore not li-

able, says Feyt. We were stunned! Why

send us the forms in the first place? They

could not provide us with any sensible ex-

planation other to say that they would send

us a letter. Im still waiting for that letter.

To put it mildly, the Feyts are angry.

We want to know why. Why is Prasa not

taking responsibility for an attack that oc-

curred on their grounds andwherewere the

security personnel at the time of the attack?

They could give me no answers.

In a landmark constitutional court case

between the Rail Commuters Action Group

(RCAG) and Metrorail in 2004, this court

made a declaratory order, ruling that Met-

rorail had the obligation to protect the secu-

rity of rail commuters ... and ensure that

reasonable measures are taken to provide

for the security of ... commuters whilst they

are making use of rail transport services.

In this case the plaintiff was Leslie van

Minnen, who founded RCAG, after his son

was stabbed to death on a train between the

CBD and Fish Hoek.

On this premise several courts ruled in fa-

vour of passengers in damages claims

against the rail giant over the past decade.

At the time of going to press TygerBurger

was still awaiting a response from Prasa.

The R487 million project by the Depart-

ment of Transport and Public Works to

upgrade nine kilometres of the N1 be-

tween Plattekloof Road and the Old Oak

interchange will disrupt traffic for the

next few weeks.

The project is to be completed in Febru-

ary 2019.

In a statement issued by the depart-

ment, every effort will be made to mini-

mise traffic disruption.

This part of the freeway carries about

120 000 vehicles every day. The addition

of a third lane in both directions will sig-

nificantly reduce traffic congestion on

one of Cape Towns busiest roads.

Shoulder closures for bridge rehabilita-

tion work at the Plattekloof intersection,

N1outbound,will bebetween08:00 to 15:00

daily. Lane closures for the installation of

a freeway management system and na-

tional long distance service route be-

tween the Durban Road and Old Oak in-

tersectionswill also be closed for the same

period. Therewill beminor operations on

the side of the road daily between 08:00

and 17:00

Shoulder closures for bridge rehabilita-

tion work at the Plattekloof intersection

N1 inbound, will be between 09:00 and

17:00 and minor operations on the side of

the road between 08:00 and 17:00. At Jip

de Jager Road shoulder closures will oc-

cur on both the on and off ramps.

Upgrades to disrupt traffic

The City of Cape Town is preparing to track

down and prosecute callers who abuse its

107PublicEmergencyCommunicationCen-

tre number.

Of the 532 682 calls answered by emergen-

cy operators in 2015, 102 217 or 20% were

prank calls.

A look at themonthly statistics reveals an

average of just over 8500 prank calls a

month,with spikes experienced inJanuary,

April and August.

The calls range from emergency hoaxes

to the vilest verbal abuse, but also,more dis-

turbingly, calls of a very perverse nature.

It is unacceptable that our operators, who

are there to do a very serious job, have to

endure this type of abuse with no recourse

except to cut the call, says theCitysMayco

member for safety and security, JP Smith.

While children are routinely blamed for

prank calls, experience has shown that a

number of adults also abuse the system, of-

ten for sexually explicit calls.

Calls to the 107 line are free fromaTelkom

landline as well as via the 112 number used

by cellphone networks.

Our system allows us to pick up exactly

where the call is coming from. I have in-

structed the Citys Special Investigations

Unit to extract information on the top 10 ha-

bitual offenders and lay charges in terms of

national legislation that makes such prank

and hoax calls to an emergency call centre

an offence. A few well-publicised convic-

tionswill serve as a good deterrent if we can

get them, adds Smith.

A 38-year-old suspect with a slew of criminal

offences to his name, including two of mur-

der, was arrested following a cash in transit

robbery in Kraaifontein on Friday.

Guards were in the process of loading

cash into an ATM at Belmont Centre in Van

Riebeeck Road, when the robbers struck at

about 13:00, says Hawks spokesperson Cap-

tain Lloyd Ramovha.

The armed suspects, approximately five

of them, accosted them and robbed them of

firearms and four bags containing a yet to be

determined amount of cash before fleeing the

scene, he says.

No shotswere fired, nor injuries sustained.

The Hawks Cash in Transit Investigation

Teamwas summoned to the scene and follow-

ing an investigation, was led to Bigaba Street

in Wallacedene, a short distance from where

an Opel bakkie fitting the description of one

of the getaway vehicles was found aban-

doned.

The vehicle had beenhijacked earlier this

month in Lwandle near Strand. A subse-

quent chainof events and information led the

team to La Boheme Road, where a second ve-

hicle, a Volkswagen Caravelle, was found

abandoned. Officers from the Citys Law En-

forcement were in attendance and appre-

hended one suspect, aged 38, who had unsuc-

cessfully tried to outrun them earlier.

According to information available at this

stage, says Ramovha, the Khayelitsha-based

suspect is currently facing a litany of crimi-

nal cases, including two of murder, attempt-

ed murder as well as cash in transit robbery,

and is believed to be out on bail.

The suspect appeared in the Blue Downs

Magistrates Court on Monday facing a

charge of armed robbery.

DESIRE RORKE

@dezzierorke

T

he youth of Bloekombos mean busi-

ness.

Armed with a strong belief in the

Bill of Rights anda steelywill, theKraaifon-

tein Youth Forum summoned the Western

Cape police to hear their demands during

a protest action on Youth Day, Wednesday

16 June.

More than 500 primary and high school

children organised a march that started

early morning at the plaza ending at the

Bloekombos community hall at 11:00.

In a memorandum to the Western Cape

police commissioner,MajorGeneralKhom-

binkosi Jula, they demanded an increase in

the number of patrolling vans in the area,

random checks for substance abuse to be

stepped up, transparency of the station ra-

tio (the number of police officers to corre-

spondwith the population), feedback on the

number of cases reported and solved per

quarter, visibility and random searches be-

fore and after school, the establishment of

a task team that will focus solely on gang-

sterism and drugs, and mobile police sta-

tions within the area.

As the youth of Kraaifonteinwe demand

this. We also demand a response on the

above mentioned concerns within the peri-

od of 21 working days, one of the organis-

ers told station and cluster commanders

Brigadiers Gerda van Niekerk and Moses

Mamela, who received the memorandum

on behalf of Jula.

According to Myolisi Magibisela, the

youth representative on the ward commit-

tee for Bloekombos, the crime situation in

this area has become untenable.

One particular new subculture concerns

themmore than anything else at this stage.

In the last four years we have experi-

enced the rise of a new breed of youth gangs

who terrorise our schools and community.

Learners are powerless and even teachers

who try to stop them become targets, he

says.

According to Magibisela, three youths

were murdered in Masibambane High

School in recent months.

We dont know how many gangs there

are orwhatmotivates themorhow this new

subculture came to be. They are not in any

way associated to the number gangs, but

drug trade seems to be an activity, he adds.

It has disturbed learning at our schools

in such a way that some students fear com-

ing to school. Some of these gangs launch

attacks on their enemies during school

hours, trying to gain access to the school

grounds, or wait outside the school yard for

their targets to come out.

On 18 May, TygerBurger reported on the

murders of two youths inWallacedene, bor-

dering Kraaifontein.

Adelaine Bruiners and another teenager

were visiting friends, one of which was a

target to a gang, when they were attacked.

The wooden bungalow they were sitting

in was bombarded with rocks and then set

alight with the youngters trapped inside.

Magibisela says although some of these

youngsters domanage to get their hands on

firearms, they will fight with anything

available to them.

Brigadier Mamela said many of the de-

mands made were not within the power of

the Western Cape police to grant, but that

the forum will receive a written feedback

within the stipulated 21-day period.

Seatbelt usage increases

According to the results that were re-

leased by the Department of Transport and

Public Works last week, 72% of all the vehi-

cle occupants were wearing seatbelts in the

second survey, compared to the 51%compli-

ance rate of the pre-campaign survey.

In the CBD post-campaign compliance

was measured at 66% 10% higher, in

Mitchells Plain 42% 16% higher, and in

Khayelitsha it remained 30%.

The First Kiss campaign was released

inMarch this year, with a hard-hitting tele-

vision commercial at the core of it. The com-

mercial, which was the subject of heated

public debate levelledat its graphicportray-

al, shows the consequences of not buckling

up.

Donald Grant, minister of transport and

public works in theWestern Cape, was elat-

ed with these results, saying the result of

the campaigns impact was successful.

International best practice and in-depth

research into local audience perceptions

drove the development and production of

the ad, with an impact assessment compo-

nent built into the project. The assessment

of the campaigns impact has proven that

the scientific, evidence driven methodolo-

gies employed to create First Kiss really

worked, he says.

Less impact in Khayelitsha

According to Grant these improvements

were driven mainly by behaviour change

in Belville, the CBD and Mitchells Plain,

with less impact recorded in Khayelitsha,

despite a concentration of outdoor advertis-

ing supporting the commercial in the area.

This aspect of the campaign has been ex-

tremely influential in howwe design the re-

search into our next TV advertising cam-

paign, which is centred on our #BoozeFre-

eRoads theme forNovember, December and

January. It is also driving the development

of a new activation of First Kiss for Sep-

tembers #AlwaysBuckleUp theme, he

says.

We will also be analysing fatalities and

injury data as these become available to

track this impact. So far the data is extreme-

ly promising, as passenger fatalitynumbers

from May 2016 (20) were 30% below passen-

ger fatalities numbers for both May 2014

andMay 2015 (both 26), although the depart-

ment cautions against drawing conclusions

regarding this aspect of the campaign im-

pact.

Muchmore data will need to be accumu-

lated and analysed, he concludes.

While TV and cinema airings have now

wrapped up, First Kiss continues online,

with ongoing billboard support.

line, can be viewed here: https://youtu.be/

runk drivers beware!

After an absence of five years,

the Drger breathalyser will be

backonour roads as ofMonday 1August.

TheDepartment of Transport and Pub-

lic Works in the Western Cape has been

given the green light to reintroduce so-

called Evidentiary Breath Alcohol Test-

ing (EBAT), commonly referred to as

the Drger, after the National Prose-

cuting Authority (NPA) confirmed that

the reintroduction can take place and is

to be piloted in the Western Cape.

EBAT uses a machine which can read

the amount of alcohol on someones

breath. It is called evidentiary as the

reading can be produced as evidence to

prosecute people accused of drinking

and driving.

Thismachine, the peoplewhooperate

it, and the location it operates in, must

all pass a very specific and demanding

set of tests in order to be used to prose-

cute suspects, says Donald Grant, pro-

vincial minister of transport and public

works.

Thrown out in 2011

The reintroduction of EBAT is the cul-

mination of years of dedicated work by

the Department of Transport and Public

Works and Safely Home, following the

State v Hendricks judgement in 2011,

which saw the Drger breathalyser be-

ing withdrawn from use.

In the case, the judge found that there

were problems in some of the ways in

which the Drger device was used, lead-

ing to the acquittal of the accused who

had been charged with driving with a

breath alcohol level higher than the legal

limit (of 0,05g per 100ml), says Grant.

More importantly, however, is that the

judge also found that breathalysers are

a reliable means of testing for alcohol in

a suspect, and that they should be used

as a tool to eradicate the scourge of

drunk driving for the betterment of soci-

ety.

Using the judgement as a guiding

tool, the Department of Transport and

Public Works then created a task team

to work through and correct all of the

problems which the court had identi-

fied, says Grant.

Ready for full rollout

The task team included experts from

the NPA, the national Department of

Transport, the South African Bureau of

Standards, the Western Cape Provincial

Traffic Services and the Gene Louw

Traffic College in Brackenfell

The task teamhas completed its work

and is ready for the full roll-out of EBAT

across the province. We are confident

that the reintroduction of EBATwill add

yet another weapon in our arsenal to rid

our roads of dangerous drunk drivers.

I am confident that the reintroduc-

tion of EBAT will see offenders receive

swift justice, thereby deterring others

from engaging in such life-threatening

behaviour, and refraining from getting

behind the wheel of a car after consum-

ing alcohol.

Dreaded Drger

ANDR BAKKES

@andrebakkes

S

y o het oopgegaan toe hy

sy sig verloor het.

Hy was n uitblinker op

laerskool,maar net n skaduwee op

horskool.

Di man van die westelike kus-

streek was aan heroen verslaaf

toe hy in n ernstige motorfietson-

geluk betrokke was.

Ek was altyd siek en vol pyne

van die dwelms. Ek moes toe my

ouers alles vertel. In Januarie 2011

is ek na n kliniek vir dwelmbehan-

deling, s die man.

Dit is op tye soos Dwelmbewus-

makingsweek van 24 tot 28 Junie

dat hy sy eie en ander se gruwel-

stories onthou.

Ek het begin branderplankry

toe ek 10 was en begin sigarette

rook op 13. Op 14 het ek en my

maats dagga begin rook. Op hor-

skool het ek begin raves bywoon

saam met ouer vriende en kennis

gemaak met ander dwelms soos

LSD, buttons, ecstacy, crack en he-

roen, vertel hy.

Iemand anders s: Die dwelm-

probleemhet bymyal hoe erger ge-

word en ek het alle dwelms pro-

beer. Op 40 het heroen amper my

lewe gekos toe ek vir dood in die

hospitaal gelos is.

Storie agter verslawing

Daar is n storie agter elke ver-

slawing, besef diemanvandiewes-

telike kusstreek.

Toe ek in die vroe sewentigs in

die Kaap kom werk het, het ek nie

gedrink nie. Nou, soveel jare later,

kan ek nie eens meer onthou wan-

neer of hoekom ek begin drink het

nie of wanneer dit buite beheer be-

gin raak het nie. Wat ek wel weet,

is dat ek eenMaandagoggend weer

half dronk en siek wakker geword

het en besef het dat ek nie so kon

voortgaan nie, s n ander per-

soon.

Ek het begin dwelms gebruik as

gevolg van kleintyd-trauma. Ek

was baie sensitief, was vas aan Ma

se rokspante en baie bang vir Pa.

Ek was ses jaar oud toe Ma die

huis verlaat het en Pa al sy woede

opmyuitgehaal het. Pahetmybaie

rondgeruk en gepluk. Ek was bang

vir alles en my pa het my vir alles

blameer. Ek het begin sigarette en

dagga rook en het baie gedrink, s

die man van Namibi.

Almal van hulle is f verwys na

n rehabilitasiesentrum f het self

besluit tot hier toe en nie verder

nie.

Waar hulle eers dwelms mis-

bruik het, het dwelms hulle nou

misbruik.

In die sentrum het almal die

woord verslawing beter ver-

staan.

Ver-slaaf-ing.

Hulle het slawe geword.

Hy gaan voort: My ouers het ge-

dink ek slaap oor by vriende en het

niks geweet van dwelms nie. Ons

het nooit daaroor gepraat nie. My

ouers het altyd geld gegee as ek vra

en ek het soms geld by hulle gesteel

en soms goed uit die huis verkoop

vir n bietjie ekstra geld.

Toe ek op 17 verslaaf gewordhet

aan heroen, het ek baie gewig ver-

loor. Op 18 het ek 46 kg geweeg. My

ouers het iets begin vermoed,maar

ek het ges dit is van akademiese

spanning dat ek nie kan eet nie.

Hulle het gedink dit is gewone

adolessente probleme.Ekdinkhul-

le was te skaam en bang om te dink

dat hul kind dwelms gebruik.

Hy het later vir vier maande op-

gehou en baie goed gedoen. Hy het

nmotorfiets gekry en het lang en-

te gery as hy niks gehad het om

te doen nie.

Was verveeld

Maar toe een Sondag ...

Ek was verveeld en sonder om

te dink het ek weer heroen gaan

koop en gerook. Tot vandag toe kan

ek dit nie verstaan nie, want ek

wou regtig nie terugkeer na die ou

lewenswyse nie. Ek was toe in n

motorfietsongeluk enmygesigwas

vermink en ek was blind. Dit was

n aaklige tyd vol pyn en selfver-

wyt. Ek het geglo God straf my oor

my dwelmgebruik. Die versoeking

is altyd daar om terug te val in die

greep van dwelms, s hy.

n Ander een s: As ek in die

strate in Ravensmead stap en ek

ruik die daggawalms, dan sper my

niesgatte oepe soes n pd sn. Dan

knyp ek my neus toe en stap weg.

Die lus duur net n minuut of

twee en dan gaan dit weg. Ek dink

net aan die string negatiewe gevol-

ge wat wag as ek weer dwelms of

alkohol gebruik.

Die man wat in die vroe sewen-

tigs Kaapstad toe gekom het, en

bevryding in alkohol gevind het,

voeg by: Vandag is dit nie vir my

belangrik om daardie jare te ont-

hou nie. Daar is niks wat ek daar-

aan kan verander nie en ek kan dit

nie terugkry nie. Wat nou vir my

onmeetbaar belangrik is, is dat ek

vanoggend nugter wakker geword

het en dat ek hopelik vanaand nug-

ter sal gaan slaap. N meer as 16

jaar leef ek nog steeds een dag op

n slag en ek weet dat my nugter-

heid met een onbesonne daad van

my weggeneem kan word. Ek het

nie planne om nugter te bly nie;

slegs hierdie een wete: dat ek nooit

weer wil drink nie, dat ek nie hier-

die nuwe ek weer in drank gaan

verdrink nie. My nugter lewe is te

kosbaar om weg te gooi.

Voordat jy wegbreek van die

dwelmgreep kan aaklige ervarings

jou elke nou en dan nugter laat

skrik, soos die man vertel met die

pa wat hom mishandel het: Ek

was op dwelms en het by n prosti-

tuut gekuier. Tien jaar gelede het

ek vir n agentskap in Seepunt ge-

werk, wat toe een aand beroof is.

My hande was vasgebind ter-

wyl die rowers twee kollegas se ke-

le afgesny het. Ek het n hek uit sy

skarniere gehardloop. Later het ek

angsaanvalle begin kry en het pro-

beer om vigs te kry sodat ek kon

doodgaan. Ek het twee jaar op

straat gebly.

Maar elkeen van die bogenoem-

de mense is gerehabiliteer, en kan

vir nou met n bre bors hul storie

uitbasuin.

Die man van die westelike kus-

streek sluit af: Hoewel ek julle nie

kan sien nie, kan ek praat en hoor

en so die boodskap van verlossing

verkondig. Jongmense moet baie

versigtig wees vir dagga, want dit

is waar my probleme begin het.

Van my ou vriende is twee van

dwelms dood en n derde is in die

tronk. Ek is blind, maar ek lewe en

ek is vry.

Gesprekke oor dwelmduiwel

Die gehalte van inskrywings

vir die eenmalige 30-musiek-

kompetisie van die Hugo

Lambrechts-musieksentrum

het hul stoutste verwagtings

oortref, s Leonore Ehlers,

hoof van di musieksentrum

in Parow.

Die eindrondes van die ju-

nior en senior afdeling was

onlangs deur uitmuntende

optredesdeurdie finaliste ge-

kenmerk. Ons iswerklik op-

gewonde oor die resultate

wat bereik is met hierdie ek-

stra geleentheid om onder-

ling op nasionale vlak mee te

ding, wat vir ons land se op-

komende klassieke kunste-

naars geskep is.

Die deelnemers gedurende

die Vrydagaand was almal

jong instrumentiste wat hul-

self al deeglik in plaaslike en

nasionale musiekkompeti-

sies laat geld het.

Maar dit gebeur nie elke

dag dat n marimbaspeler as

algehele wenner in n nasio-

nale kompetisie vir klassieke

musiek uit die stryd tree nie.

En as dit dan ook nog op sy

tuisveld gebeur, kan die

groot toejuiging tydens die

prysuitdeling begryp word.

Die wenner van die goue

medalje in die senior afde-

ling van dieHL30-kompetisie

is Emilio February van Pine-

lands met Hendrik Hofmeyr

Learn to defend yourself

S

elf-defence is first and foremost

the ability to not put yourself into

a situation where you need to de-

fend yourself. Sadly, in the world we live in

today, we need to learn to defend our-

selves, says Karel van der Merwe, a mar-

tial arts andkickboxing instructor fromNa-

tional Martial Arts Academy.

Along with his colleague John Cain, they

recently hosted a self-defence workshop for

the mothers involved with the Daniel and

Friends Fund.

It was a great morning, and I think ev-

eryone that attended took home some food

for thought. Important concepts that were

discussed included spacial concept, which

teaches you that space between you and

your attacker is essential, as is distance cre-

ation, Van der Merwe added.

Techniques on how to achieve this were

discussed and demonstrated.

More importantly we covered the topic

of rape. The aimof themorningwas to teach

thewomenhow to bemore aware of our sur-

roundings and to grasp basic concepts that

can be practised in the safety in your own

home, to give you a better chance of defend-

ing yourself when you need to.

Of dalk is die aanpassing van die

swaar, nat velde in Europa na die harde,

vinnige velde van Suid-Afrika te moeilik

om in n kort tydjie te maak.

Maar iets veroorsaak dat die Vermeu-

lens en Louws van die lewe net n

skaduwee van hulself was in die eerste

twee toetse teen die Iere. So bietjie

loodvoetig en lomp, n?

Om daardie rede wil ek jou aanraai om

maar te hou by die Suid-Afrikaners wat

hul brood op eie bodem verdien.

En plaaslike spelers, Allister, wat op

huidige spelpeil hul plek in die span

verdien.

Ons praat nie hier van die regte

kleursamestelling van die span nie. Ons

praat ook nie hier

van ervaring nie.

My beroep op jou

is juis om te

vergeet van erva-

ring en prestasies

uit die verre

verlede. Frik du

Preez en Naas

Botha gaan byvoor-

beeld nie nou die

oplossing wees nie.

Ook nie Victor of

Jean nie.

Kies die ouens

wat vanjaar

uitgeblink het in

die superrugby-kompetisie. Manne soos

Ruan Combrinck, Warren Whiteley en

Jaco Kriel. Kyk net watter reuse-verskil

Ruan en Warren al klaar gemaak het.

Daars ander spelers ook. Maar ek wil

nou nie t voorskriftelik klink nie, want

jy sal dalk s dis maklik om van die

kantlyn af raad te gee.

En dit is seker, maar tog wil ek my

beskeie mening uitspreek en jou vra om

jou spanne met die oog op die toekoms te

kies. Oor vier jaar wil jy n ervare span

na die Wreldbekertoernooi neem, nie n

ouetehuis (soos jy weet wie) nie.

Gee hierdie opkomende sterre die

geleentheid om ervaring op te doen al

verloor jy aanvanklik n paar toetse en al

s die ondersteuners en media ook wat.

Maar teen die volgende Wreldbeker-

toernooi gaan jy die laaste lag. Want dan

gaan jy n span vol jong, hardebaarde

saamvat, wat die stampe en stote van

toetsrugby ken en onder die knie het.

Dis die enigste manier om te roll,

Allister! Trust me on this one!

The other day it was reported

that 300 members of one party

in the Western Cape jumped

ship to join the opposition.

This tells me one of two

things:

They all suddenly had an

epiphany about the bad

policies of the previous party,

or they were promised some-

thing.

Now this is nothing new and

it is perceived to work to the

benefit of the party gaining the

new members. It does not.

It does however, unfortunate-

ly, just show how shallow

some people are when it comes

to election time as they are

serving themselves and not the

communities they supposedly

represent. As soon as a better

offer comes along, they will

jump again.

There is one description for

actions like this, and its called

political whoring.

It is indeed encouraging and

comforting that Eskom is

training its personnel suitably

to operate its nuclear power

station, before it blows up and

takes all of Cape Town with it

(Scarce nuclear skills har-

nessed, TB Table View, 15

June). However, what Eskom

also needs to tell us and

prove to the public is that it

has the necessary plan and the

money in reserve to clean up

the mess that is left behind

once a nuclear power station is

decommissioned. This part of

the equation nobody talks

about all one hears is that

nuclear power is cheap, but the

fact that the costs associated

with the clean-up after decom-

missioning run into billions, is

swept under the carpet.

nuclear power stations, and it

has been found that the cost of

making it safe for other

occupation, is currently

something in the region of

R80 billion per station!

It could be argued that

another such power station

near St Francis / Oyster Bay is

not such a bad location, as it

can be shut off from public

access after decommissioning

for decades, but the same

cannot be said about Koeberg.

This one is being surrounded

more and more by residential

suburbs, ignorant of the associ-

ated dangers of nuclear radia-

tion, which can easily happen

by accident and by which

time its too late. To even

consider building another one

nearby, or anywhere within

50km of Cape Towns boundary,

is just plain stupid and irre-

sponsible. Any new nuclear

power station should be built, if

at all, as far from human

habitation as possible some-

thing we are certainly not short

of in this country.

Its high time we stop being

starry-eyed about nuclear

power. It might be cheap, but it

certainly is anything but cheap

to build, if properly done, and

far from cheap to clean up the

site after use, never mind all

the safe waste disposal costs

over the years. A big shroud

hangs over much of the issues

associated with nuclear power,

and the public is being kept

Its totally cool to be different

During the second school term, the Danil

and Friends Fund, a non-profit organisation

which provides a holistic approach to sup-

porting familieswhohave childrenwith spe-

cial needs, launched its Different is cool

school awareness campaign.

We have become increasingly aware of

societys misperception of people with disa-

bilities, more so in children whose uncer-

tainty and, sadly, sometimes negative view

of those with special needs is based purely

on a lack of knowledge and understanding,

says marketing director Nicky de Beer.

With empathy and compassion being emo-

tions best instilled at a young age, the orga-

nisation created a campaign which could be

shared with children of school going age in

a fun, informative way.

The entire programme, which lasts no

more than fifteen minutes and can be easily

slotted into an assembly.

It consists of a short one-act play which

touches on several aspects regarding disa-

bilities including the use of the word re-

tard in a derogatory way.

In essence it teaches the children to ap-

preciate difference in others, she adds.

A presentation about the Danil and

Friends Fund and what it strives to achieve,

along with an interactive game which en-

courages children to view each individuals

packaging in a different light, ends the

presentation.

The excitement and eagerness with

which our campaign was received at both

Mikro Primary in Kuilsriver and Bastion

Primary in Brackenfell, have given us a re-

newed appreciation for just how necessary

a programme of this nature is, and we en-

courage all educational institutions to con-

sider introducing our programme to their

students, says De Beer.

A

pplication for special votes during

the upcoming local elections

opened on Friday 10 June and clos-

es on Friday 8 July.

It is important to apply early for this

voting right, should you not be able to

vote on election day on Wednesday 3 Au-

gust, says ward councillor Marian Ni-

euwoudt. There are essentially two types

of special votes firstlyType 1,wereavot-

er goes to their lo-

cal voting district

to cast their vote

on Monday 1 or

Tuesday 2 Au-

gust, and second-

lywhere thevoter

receives a home

visit from the In-

dependent Elect-

oral Commission

(IEC) in order to

cast their vote.

A Type 1 special vote can be applied

for by any registered voter who for what-

ever reason be it travel, business, or

work will not be able to vote onWednes-

day 3 August. They will be able to apply

for a special vote and if successful, will

be able to cast their vote at the polling sta-

tion at which they are registered to vote,

on the special voting days prior to the

election, she explains.

Application for this type of special vote

can be done in three ways: an SMS to

32249, an online submission at www.elec-

tions .org.za, or a submission of form

MEC35 at the IEC office in Bellville.

A Type 2 special vote is only for the

sick and housebound. In this instance, a

voter would apply for an IEC official to

visit themat their home on special voting

days because they are not mobile and or

too sick to vote on election day. People re-

quiring a home visit must reside and be

visited in the voting district in which

they are registered to vote, she says.

Application for a home visit must be

doneusing theMEC35 formeither inhard

copy and submitted to

the IEC office, or using

the online form.

If your application

for a special vote is suc-

cessful, youwill vote in

the following manner:

Your thumbnail is

marked with indelible

ink, while your ID

book is stamped. You

will receive the rele-

vant ballot papers to be

marked in secret and placed and sealed

in an unmarked envelope. The unmarked

envelope is placed in another envelope

that is marked with your name, ID num-

ber and voting district number.

The use of two envelopes is to ensure

the secrecy of your ballot. The outer en-

velope is discarded before counting,

says Nieuwoudt. IEC officials will place

it in a secure ballot box for special votes

and your name is marked off the voters

roll to indicate that you have cast a spe-

cial vote.

A

s a youngwoman in your twen-

ties your expectations of mar-

riage are very unrealistic. And

when those expectations fail us, depres-

sion is often a result, says well-known

local gospel singer Crystal Swanson.

A book authored by award winning

journalist Sisanda Nkoala, telling the

story behind Swansons career, was re-

leased on 1 April at a packed venue at

Centre for the Book in Cape Town.

The official book tour starts on Satur-

day 2 July, with its first stop being the

Kraaifontein library hall, where a book

signingwill take place between 13:30 and

16:30.

The book Shepherded: A Womans Tri-

umph throughDepression andDivorce, is

based on the very well known Psalm 23

and focuses on Swansons personal jour-

ney through depression and divorce, for-

giveness and healing and the birth of her

singing career, which flowed from this.

It is not a sombre book and the focus

is not on suffering hardship, but on over-

coming it. Many Christians are faced

with depression at some time in their

lives a topic that is often a taboo in

churches. But its very real and needs to

be treated seriously, as I discovered after

my marriage fell apart, she says.

Her approach to the disease was holis-

tic. It was a combination of medication,

therapy and spirituality that resulted it

successful treatment.

It is also a very practical book, offering

an arsenal of useful tips to married cou-

ples. By sharing the very many mis-

takes I made during my marriage, the

bookwill serve as a guide tomarried cou-

ples who might be facing troubled wa-

ters, she says.

In this respect issues like forgiveness

and the freedom it brings is looked at in-

depth and from a womens perspective.

Swanson hails from Ravensmead and

currently calls Durbanville home.

She is a radiographer of profession,

but as a multitalented gospel artist her

career spans more than a decade.

V Entry to the book signing is free where guest

speaker Denise Williams from Radio Tygerberg,

ists Trevor Benson and CherylAnn Ehrenreich

eye catching colours, says Le Roux.

The Tope offers a practical functionality

for the entire family and gives thewearer the

opportunity to show their support for this

cause. Residents are urged to celebrate Sun-
