    POLICING:MORE LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS NEEDED

    Crippling cop shortfall

    DESIRE RORKE

    @dezzierorke

    A

    shortfall of some 1 000 officers in traf-

    fic, lawenforcement andmetro depart-

    ments is crippling effective law enfor-

    cement on the fringes of the city.

    It is a mission impossible for us to do

    what we have to do in this city, with the staff

    that we have available, mayoral commitee

    member for safety and security Jean- Pierre

    Smith said in a telephonic interview with

    TygerBurger yesterday.

    He was responding to a recent fallout at

    the Bergdal subcouncil, when local city

    councillors lambasted the traffic depart-

    ment for lack of service delivery in the su-

    burbs of Kraaifontein and Brackenfell.

    Alleged irregularities in the traffic opera-

    tions in these areas, last week prompted the

    local subcouncil to reject the report tabled

    for traffic activities during the month of Fe-

    bruary.

    Aghast

    In fact, local city councillors were so ag-

    hast at the alleged inadequacy of the report

    that they termed it laughable, requesting

    the official to go back to his department to

    convey the message and draw up a new re-

    port.

    In the first instance, Brackenfell city

    councillorMarianNieuwoudt requested, for

    the second consecutivemonth, a precise bre-

    akdown of how ward funds allocated by her-

    self for extra traffic operations in Bracken-

    fell, had been spent in recent months.

    Her first request for this information in

    March, fell on deaf ears.

    Due to the critical shortage of traffic offi-

    cers, Nieuwoudt allocated R80 000 toward

    overtime payment for extra traffic officers

    in Brackenfell hot spots in July last year.

    It allowed us a few extra traffic officers,

    working overtime, to police dangerous ro-

    ads such as the Bottelary road, which is

    known for its above average accident statis-

    tics, she told TygerBurger.

    Drunken driving

    It is a known fact that drunken driving

    and speeding are prevalent on this road due

    to the many wine farms and pubs Bracken-

    fell and Kraaifontein residents have access

    to, she said.

    She added that these addtional efforts ma-

    naged to bring down the accident rate to 0 %

    for the period, but that it had according to

    her, spiked again in recent months.

    FROM PAGE 1

    Nieuwoudt referred to the previous princi-

    pal inspector, Waldo Prinsloo, who coordi-

    nated the aforesaid operations. Prinsloo

    was transferred out of the area some eight

    months ago.

    Since then I have not seen a single traffic

    officer in my area patrolling the hot spots,

    and neither have I received feedback on

    what has happened with my ward funds. I

    often see the evidence of what I presume to

    bedrunkendrivingonBottelary road, in the

    form of run-over lampposts, but the statis-

    tics in traffic reports dont reflect this. In ad-

    dition, the overall statistics of traffic trans-

    gressions in my area has decreased so dra-

    matically that it had to be combined with

    other wards to mask the reality thereof,

    she said during the subcouncil meeting.

    Accounting

    She requested an official detailed report

    accounting for the exact money, time and

    manpower spent in Brackenfell with the

    ward funds allocated.

    Subcouncil chairman Grant Twigg also

    lashed out at the apparent lack of traffic ser-

    vices in Kraaifontein.

    Something is wrong here. We do not see

    the traffic department doing what they are

    supposed to be doing here. When I look at

    this report I cannot believe that it is the sum

    total of everything traffic services has done

    in one month. Your department does not

    knowwhat it is doing, he said. He also refer-

    red to what he called the unwarranted

    transfer of previous traffic principal.

    You took away our best man in the area,

    someone who knew the area and the needs

    of the community and left us with nothing.

    I wont accept that report! he stated.

    Do you know how many shebeens there

    are in Kraaifontein? Why is this not reflec-

    ted inyour report?heasked, alluding to the

    fact that many more Driving Under the In-

    fluence (DUI) arrests should be made on a

    monthly basis to keep people safe on the ro-

    ads.

    Nieuwoudt also raised serious concerns

    over the staff compliment for the month as

    indicated in the report.

    If I look at the statistics in the report of

    officers taking sick leave, annual leave and

    going on training for the month, it leaves

    me with a total of 11 days that no work was

    done. How is this possible? It does not make

    sense, she said, referring to her own calcu-

    lations.

    Looking at the report which covers four

    wards in Brackenfell and Kraaifontein, a

    grand total of 948 offences were recorded by

    the department.

    The majority of these offences (498), were

    for lighter transgressions such as failure to

    carry drivers licenses, failure to display re-

    gistrationdisks, andunlicensedmotorvehi-

    cles.

    Driving offences

    The second highest (273) was for driving

    offences such as driving without a safety

    belt and skipping stop streets.

    Only 24 arrests weremade for driving un-

    der the influence of alcohol, which accor-

    ding to local councillors is the main culprit

    for serious accidents in the area.

    Smith told TygerBurger that local coun-

    cillors need to bemore realistic about statis-

    tics insofar aswhat is in fact achievablewit-

    hin a specific area with the available staff.

    A road block with six to eight officers

    will be operational for only about an hour

    if they have to pull off six drunken drivers

    at the roadblock, he explained, saying that

    each such driver would have to be taken to

    a police station, his car confiscated and

    blood taken, which is a time consuming

    exercise.

    Moreover, Smith said that the staff de-

    ployment in the law enforcement depart-

    ments of theCity of CapeTowngrewby only

    600 officers between 2001 and 2011, creating

    a huge deficit in a city that has grown expo-

    nentially over the last decade.

    The citys populationhas grownby 1mil-

    lion people in this time, with it the number

    of cars and taxis increased andnewdevelop-

    ments sprung up everywhere, he said.

    Focussed areas

    He stated that the city therefore has to fo-

    cus on areas and specific main roads identi-

    fied has high incidence roads, and evenmo-

    re so over the festive season which runs

    from November to the end of March, accor-

    ding to the safety and security festive sea-

    son safety plan.

    Baden Powell Drive, the R300 and areas

    of the N1 closer to the city, are only a few

    of these roads, he says.

    There simply is not enough money to re-

    cruit more officers at the moment.

    I have proposed a rates increase of one

    percent to be ring-fenced and used only for

    additional law enforcement officers in the

    city, but this could take anything from one

    to three years, he said.

    Smith also aims to create a traffic reser-

    vist force in the City, something that has

    been in discussion for three years.

    In many other metropolitans in the

    world, a third to aquarter of the lawenforce-

    ment is made up of reservists. In London,

    its a third and in New York a quarter, he

    says.

    Shouldaprogramme like this be launched

    in Cape Town, it would afford the city the

    opportunity to recruit members of the pu-

    blic to work as traffic wardens in their local

    areas.

    Smith stated that he would look into the

    issue of the ward funds allocated by Nieu-

    woudt.

    huishulpe en tuiniers in diens het, kan help

    om hul werknemers stabiliteit en gemoeds-

    rus te gee.

    Baie ontwrigting en hartseer kan voor-

    komword deurwerknemers bewus temaak

    van die noodsaak om gereeld te betaal vir

    blyplekke wat hulle by die Stad Kaapstad

    jekbestuurder by TraceOnline.

    kontrakteer om behuisingsinligting te help

    BUILDING UP YOUR

    FITNESS THE FUN WAY

    Ayouth group inKraaifontein is in high spi-

    rits and scurrying to raise funds for an over-

    seas trip that may well change their lives.

    Church Ablaze Ministries opened in

    Kraaifontein in February 2011 with approx-

    imately 100 members.

    Since then we grew to over 120 members,

    a total of 10 youth members and a Sunday

    school that consists of 12 children, saysPas-

    tor Fanie Mentu.

    Over the three years they have served the

    area of Eikendal, this small congregation

    has done much to alleviate suffering and

    hunger by running a soup kitchen twice a

    week.

    Then in February the congreation recei-

    ved a visit from a Swedish youth group who

    stayed with the church families for a week

    in order to do community work.

    Theynowextendedan invite to ouryouth

    to come and stay with them during the De-

    cember school holidays a historical trip for

    our small youth group to underake, says

    Mentu, adding that the church does not have

    the sufficient funds to assist their young lea-

    ders financially.

    We have already organised some fund

    raising events from our side but our plea to-

    day is for donations from local companies to

    assist us in sending these youth members to

    Sweden to broaden their horizons.

    Formost of them itwill be a once-in-a life-

    time opportunity to go overseas. Also they

    will strengthen the current relationship

    they now have with their Swedish counter-

    parts, which could lead to future study or

    work opportunities, he says.

    The church is registered as anon-profit or-

    ganisation.

    DESIRE RORKE

    @dezzierorke

    N

    ee, nee en nee! was die luid-

    keelse reaksie van plaaslike

    stadsraadslede op aansoeke

    van drankwinkels om op Sondae handel

    te dryf.

    Drie sulke aansoeke is gedurende

    Maart ontvang nadat wysigings op die

    openbare drankverkope-ordonnansie

    op 1 Februarie in werking getree het.

    Volgens di wysigings kan instansies,

    wat reeds in besit van dranklisensies is,

    nou aansoek doen om hul handelsure te

    verleng op weeksdae en Saterdae van

    18:00 tot 20:00 en op Sondae van 11:00 tot

    18:00.

    Dieselfde wysiging gee egter die ge-

    leentheid aan die Stad Kaapstad om se-

    kere faktore in ag te neem voor die aan-

    soeke goedgekeur word.

    Sulke faktore sluit in die ligging van

    die drankwinkel en die impak van die

    verlengde handelsure op die onmiddeli-

    ke omgewing.

    gemeenskap word byvoorbeeld in ag ge-

    neem wanneer daar oor aansoeke be-

    sluit word.

    Al drie die aansoeke van onderskeide-

    lik Tops-Proteahoogte in Brackenfell,

    The Hyb Liquors in Peerless Park en

    Delciki Liquor Boutique in Scottsville,

    is afgekeur.

    In al drie die gevalle het raadslede wl

    besluit om die verlenging van handels-

    ure gedurende die week en op Saterdae

    goed te keur omdie gemeenskap sodoen-

    de genoeg geleentheid te bied vir hul

    drankaankope.

    Weens die nabyheid van kerke en

    woonhuise sal dit nie wenslik wees vir

    enige van die drankwinkels om op Son-

    dae oop te wees nie. Die vergunning om

    op Saterdae tot 20:00 oop te bly, sal die

    gemeenskap egter genoegsame geleent-

    heid gee om hul inkopies vir Sondag te

    finaliseer, het Grant Twigg, subraad-

    voorsitter, ges.

    Die bogenoemde wysigings is verlede

    jaar gemaaknadat die Stad erkenhet dat

    onnodige beperkings op verkope n na-

    delige uitwerking op sake-onderne-

    Daarom is dit nodig om n fyn balans

    te handhaaf tussen die verskeie faktore

    wat hier n rol speel, het Twigg ges.

    T

    he University of the Western Cape

    (UWC) in Bellville, an anti-apartheid

    bastion, is host to a new research cen-

    tre that aims to help eradicate hunger.

    TheDepartment of Science andTechnolo-

    gy (DST) and the National Research Foun-

    dation (NRF) last Tuesday launched a new

    Centre of Excellence inFoodSecurity at the

    UWC.

    This centre of excellence is the first to

    be co-hosted by a historic black universi-

    ty, science and technologyminister Derek

    Hanekom said.

    He said UWChadmade great strides over

    the last 13 years and he emphasised that

    food securitywas high on the governments

    list of priorities.

    Acute poverty

    Hanekomnoted that despite SouthAfrica

    being relatively wealthy, almost 25% of the

    population was food insecure.

    This is largely in the deep rural areas

    or former bantustans wherever poverty

    is at its most acute, Hanekom said.

    The centre will run in conjunction with

    the University of Pretoria and is headed by

    Prof Julian May and Prof Stephanie Bur-

    ton.

    May said: Food security means all peo-

    ple need to have physical and economic ac-

    cess to sufficient, safe and nutritious food

    to meet their dietary needs and food prefe-

    rences for a healthy and active lifestyle.

    This centre of excellence (CoE) became

    the fourteenth of its kind since the incepti-

    on of the CoE programme 10 years ago, and

    aims to make food readily available natio-

    nally and locally so all people have access

    to it, Hanekom said.

    Obviously, food security is a subject that

    requires comprehensive treatment...it in-

    volves questions of agricultural production

    systems, market dynamics, nutrition, peo-

    ples habits and preferences, our social se-

    curity system, and so on.

    This is one reason why achieving food

    security is such a challenge, and why the

    centre of excellence approach is particular-

    ly appropriate in this case, Hanekom said.

    Overarching questions

    Dr Albert van Jaarsveld, chief executive

    officer of theNRF, said: According to a stu-

    dy released in 2013 by the Human Sciences

    Research Council, more than half of South

    Africas population does not have regular

    access to enough food.

    UWC stated the new CoE will investigate

    three overarching questions:

    VHow global and national food systems

    are changing and how this affects the sus-

    tainability, availability, access and attribu-

    tes of food.

    VDetermining who the food insecure

    are:where theyare located,what their choi-

    ces, strategies and opportunities are, their

    health and well-being, and how these as-

    pects change in response to changing food

    systems.

    VWhat policies, technologies, interventi-

    ons and products enable access to afforda-

    ble and nutritious food in ecological, econo-

    mic, social and politically sustainable

    ways.

    Hanekom added that the new CoE would

    be bringing together experts and resear-

    chers from19 SouthAfrican and internatio-

    nal institutions.

    It will not look at agricultural producti-

    vity in isolation, but will take a farm to

    fork approach to the food system.

    peGate Centre.

    Says David Jacobs, Cape Town branch

    manager of Stop Hunger Now: While we

    have much to celebrate as a nation these

    of our freedom.We are grateful to Hyprop

    and CapeGate Shopping Centre for this

    opportunity to make a meaningful diffe-

    rence to hunger in our community.

    DESIRE RORKE

    @dezzierorke

    A new programme recently launched by

    Monument High school in Kraaifontein

    aims to change the face of their school, com-

    munity. and even the country.

    Simply known as Global Teens, the pro-

    gram has a five-pronged focus, says princi-

    pal David Jantjies.

    Firstly, we want to develop youth lea-

    dership to assist the South African youth

    to gain a grip on the diversity of our count-

    ry and to accommodate each other to carve

    out an exciting future for our country and

    its people, he said.

    In doing so, this programme will aim to

    enhance global citizenship as a way of life,

    in order to address burning global issues

    suchas globalwarming,HIV/Aids,malaria

    and the ever decreasing availability of na-

    tural resources.

    Having exposed the youth to such a rigo-

    rous leadership training programme, we

    want to reveal to them thedevelopingworld

    of technology, economics, commerce and

    culture, which includes an overseas lear-

    ning trip to a developed country, he says,

    adding that when these students return

    they will have stories to tell about foreign

    academic programmes, community outre-

    ach projects and technology that can only

    enhance their communities back home.

    Jantjies expressed his hope that these yo-

    ungsters will return home happier, more

    self motivated and with a new zest for life.

    However, significant will be needed to

    initiate this programme.

    During June 2014 we will be sending

    three groups consisting of 42 learners over-

    seas: two to the USA and one to South Ko-

    rea, says Jantjies.

    All the 150 learners in the programme,

    who range from grades 8 to 12, have to

    achieve academic marks above 60%, suc-

    cessfully complete the leadership develop-

    ment programat school, and display impec-

    cable behaviour.

    Jantjies says this will become an ongoing

    programme at Monument Park High

    school, and, after a two-year pilot perioddu-

    ring which time they hope to gain the nee-

    ded experience and expertise, they hope to

    be able to expand it to other schools throug-

    hout the country.

    He urged local business and individuals

    to underwrite the programme by sponso-

    ring a specific learner or learners.

    Other fundraising events for the pro-

    gramme will held at the school during the

    course of May. These will be announced in

    the media, in due course.

    DESIRE RORKE

    @dezzierorke

    E

    very so often the Rotary Club Oosten-

    berg honours individuals, organisati-

    ons and companies who excel in their

    efforts to provide charitable services to the

    community.

    Last Tuesday evening was such an occasi-

    on. Nine Awards of Excellence were besto-

    wed on persons and organisations in our

    community at a special ceremony at the

    Kuilsriver Golf Club.

    Rotary District Govener Mike Osche, ma-

    de use of the occasion to elaborate on the be-

    nefits of being part of Rotary International.

    Some 1.2 million members, all like min-

    ded individuals, work together to assist

    wherever assistance is needed in their com-

    munities, resulting in a strong feeling of be-

    longing for those members, he said.

    The Oostenberg Rotary Club was started

    13 years ago with 24 members, and although

    there are currently only eightmembers, this

    handfull of individuals are responsible for

    numerous successful community projects in

    the areas of Brackenfell, Kraaifontein, and

    Kuilsriver.

    The biggest to date was the building pro-

    ject at a pre-school in Blue Downs, where se-

    veral classes were added to the school, said

    president Bert Fischer.

    Over the yearswehave also supported se-

    veral organisations with funds, donations

    and wheelchairs, as well as founding the In-

    teract Club at Brackenfell High school, he

    added.

    This club serves as a platform for high

    school learners to perform community ser-

    vices.

    The following personswere recognised for

    the valuable work they have done over the

    years:

    Chrisna Graham and Sandra Kotze from

    Brackenfell High school for their commit-

    ment in creating and sustaining the role and

    relevance of the Interact Organization at

    Brackenfell High.

    Suleiman Arend and Golden Arrow for

    their role and commitment in assisting with

    transport needed for various Rotary Oosten-

    berg projects.

    The Sarfat organisation and the Bracken-

    fell and Bloekombos health clinics for their

    involvement in the Rotary Family Health

    Days.

    Danneline Daniels, in recognition of ex-

    ceptional service to the community through

    her commitment to creating a sustainable

    environment for young victims of abuse.

    Elsie Kammies and ward councillor Na-

    thaniel Rasmus in recognition for their ser-

    vice through various community projects.

    Kaptein Gerhard Niemand of the Kraai-

    fontein Police Station, for his role in the

    fight against violence against women and

    children.

    Twocompanies, EmergencyGlass andGu-

    ardian Fencing, were recognised for their

    commitment andassistance toRotaryClubs

    fundraising projects.

    And last but not least, theKraaifontein Te-

    huis, were awarded for their exceptional de-

    dication to caring for the aged and disabled.

    We have a small business. We

    work day and night to keep

    our business going. Most

    months we earn enough for a

    basic living, but sometimes we

    do not have food on our table.

    I just read in a local newspa-

    per about a company a small

    business like ours that was

    sued by a client for not doing

    the work the way the client

    wanted it done. The client says

    within 24 hours the owner of

    the business was there to do

    the job. But after it was done,

    he struggled to get the busi-

    ness owner back to fix minor

    things.

    As customers we are told to

    complain about everything.

    But, we are forced to start

    small businesses because we

    are unable to find work in our

    country.

    We have to jump at every

    work opportunity that comes

    our way. We do not always

    have money to go back to

    completed jobs, as we have to

    jump to the next job to sur-

    vive.

    The business owner I men-

    tioned had to pay a large sum

    back to the client. He did not

    pay until the client threatened

    with further legal action.

    I bet he did not have the

    cash to pay straight away. We

    also live from one job to the

    other, with no cash in between.

    Please consider small busi-

    ness owners positions. Do not

    fight and threaten legal action

    on every little aspect. We want

    to make you happy, but

    sometimes things go wrong.

    Help us grow and do not try

    your utmost to break us down.

    Our economy is bad and, as

    small business owners, we are

    the first to feel the impact.

    I have been fortunate to live in

    paradise opposite Amandel

    Close and Fynbos dams for the

    past 22 years. Lately, a lot of

    people who do not live in the

    area have discovered the

    beautiful spot. They live in

    Protea Valley, Riebeeckshof or

    Oude Westhof to name a few.

    There is no problem with that.

    They come here with their

    dogs also no problem, but

    they let their dogs use the place

    as a public toilet and do not

    clean up after them. We never

    had a problem with flies, but

    now we have flies throughout

    the year.

    I take walks there and have

    only seen one woman with a

    plastic bag in her hand. She

    ties the bag over her hand and

    picks up what her dog leaves

    behind.

    I spoke to her and she was

    also upset that people just leave

    the dog mess behind. She said

    in the country she came from,

    people would never think of

    being so careless.

    If they did, they would get a

    fine.

    If your dog gets sick, you take

    him to the vet because you love

    your dog. So why not clean

    after him?

    If you dont like to take

    droppings in the bag home,

    throw it in the bins provided.

    Come on people, bring back the

    magic to the Magic Forest.

    We recently visited the circus

    and were met by a handful of

    protesters at the robots.

    We enjoyed the show and it

    was well attended. We even had

    the opportunity to feed the

    animals, which was something

    my daughter will never forget.

    We are in full support of the

    circus and will always welcome

    them back to Parow.

    Maybe the people at the

    robots should have taken 10

    minutes to see for themselves.

    This circus is nothing but

    amazing and made me think of

    my childhood, when we also

    visited the circus. Those years

    it was a huge event at the old

    Goodwood Showgrounds.

    Everyone dressed up, while

    their hotdogs and popcorn were

    Slap n Kersfees, wat volgens die winkels

    al in Oktober begin het, is die hele

    koopbedryf in n rooi Valentynsgewaad

    getooi.

    Toe die dag van behartjiede sellofaan

    en rooi-van-alles verby is, is die Paasbol-

    letjies en Paaseiers uitgepak. n Mens

    loop jou steeds in enige kettingwinkel vas

    in n sjokolade-haas.

    En nou gaan ons weer op Moedersdag

    fokus, want die verkiesing het nie juis

    verkoopwaarde nie. Die plakkate teen die

    lamppale dra gesigte wat meer en minder

    esteties is, maar beslis nie tot groter

    aankope in winkels sal bydra nie.

    Dit sal dus Moedersdag wees. En

    daarna Vadersdag, gevolg deur die

    winteruitverkopings en dan Vrouedag en

    dan lente of iets net voor ons weer in

    Oktober begin met Jingle Bells.

    Die winkels is ons heeltyd voor. Dit

    laat ons s: Wat het van die tyd ge-

    word? Ons voel of ons nie goed genoeg

    is nie, ons hou dan nie by nie.

    Ons voel heeltyd ons is agter. Reeds

    moeg gejaag, gedaan gesukkel om alle

    spertye te haal, alles af te handel en

    gedoen te kry, maar die lys bly groei. En

    dis al weer Kersfees.

    Nee, dis nog nie Kersfees, Moedersdag,

    Jeugdag of iets nie. Dis n. En die hede,

    hierdie oomblik, is waar jy nou ten volle

    moet wees. Dit is al wat saakmaak.

    Check mates: Brackenfell High school is very proud of three chess players who were

    selected for the WP Schools Chess Team. They are, from left, Devon Felix, Annie Rorke,

    coach Johan Kotz and James Sloan.

    Dank aan borge: Die Paarl-skool vir neuraal gestremde kinders in Brackenfell het onlangs n

    bedankingsfunksie by die Kronendal-wynkelder in Durbanville gehou om dank uit te spreek aan

    die borge wat die skool ondersteun. Van links is n paar van die borge: Johan van Wyk (Fang),

    Jacoline Wolmarans (Creative Pulse), Faffa Coetzee (adjunkhoof), Jeanette van der Merwe

    (Paarl-skool-ontwikkelingstigting), Hannes Coetzee (CSV Construction) en Jaco Engelbrecht

    (SMEC). Volgens Jeanette van der Merwe, die bemarker by Paarl-skool-ontwikkelingstigting is dit

    onmoontlik om suksesvol te wees met fondsinsamelings sonder die hulp en ondersteuning van

    borge en staatmaker-diensverskaffers. Dit is hierdie ondernemings en individue wat ongeag die

    grootte van hulle bydrae, help om die beeld van die gestremde met waardigheid en respek uit te

    bou. FOTO: DESIRE RORKE

    Kosparadys vir smulpape

    DESIRE RORKE

    @dezzierorke

    Smulpape van reg oor die stad het verlede

    naweek Stellenbosch toe gestroom omhulle

    te verlustig aandie lekkernyewat bydieOs-

    cars van Suid-Afrikaanse voedselprodusen-

    te uitgestal is.

    Die jaarlikse Eat Out Zonnebloem-toe-

    kennings vir varsvoedsel-produsente, het

    op 12 April op n spesiale seremonie by die

    Oude Libertas se Slow Market-markwerf

    plaasgevind.

    Die kompetisie is in 2007 begin om erken-

    ning te gee aan uitstaande onafhanklike

    kosproduseerders en plaaslike kosmarkte.

    Nominasies is vroer vanjaar van die pu-

    bliek ontvang, waarna beoordelaars, Anel-

    de Greeff (redaksionele hoof van Eat Out),

    Abigail Donnelly (redakteur vanEat Out en

    groepredakteur van Woolworths se TAS-

    TE), bekroonde sjefs Jackie Cameron en

    Vanessa Marx en Deena Naidoo, wenner

    van MasterChef SA in 2012, moes proe.

    Die finaliste se produkte is beoordeel op

    grond van algehele smaak, aanbieding en

    sorg vir die omgewing. Die 23 wenprodukte

    was behoorlik n smaaksensasie.

    Plaaslike wenners wat groot aftrek gekry

    het, was die bakkery by die plaas Babylons-

    toren vir hul smaaklike en kreatiewe vars

    brode.

    Angus McIntosh het die toekenning ge-

    kry vir die beste organiese produkte (Far-

    mer Angus), insluitende eiers en vleis ver-

    bou op sy plaas net buite Stellenbosch.

    Nog n gunsteling was die sorbet van Sor-

    betiere in Woodstock. Die intensiewe ge-

    geurde en romerige vrugte-sorbet kan net

    as hemels beskryf word.

    So ookwas die ongelooflike pikante souse

    en atjars van Quality Pickles in Kaapstad,

    wat met die toekenning vir beste kruidery

    (smaakmiddel) weggestap het.

    Plaaslike lekkerbek Anl Potgieter van

    Milnerton het vir die tweede agtereenvol-

    gende jaar die gesogte toekenning vir die

    beste kosblog gewen, met haar gewilde blog

    Lifeisazoobiscuit.com. Die toekenning is

    deur openbare stemme beslis.

    Ek is ekstaties maar ook nederig oor so-

    veel mense wat aan my glo. Ek is borrelend

    van opgewondenheid en so dankbaar dat ek

    my liefde vir kosmet soveel mense kan deel

    watmy blog lees, het sy n die toekennings

    op haar blog geskryf.

    Volgens beoordelaar Anelde Greef was

    die beoordelaars vanjaar baie bendrukmet

    die ho kwaliteit van die genomineerde pro-

    dukte.

    rieWes-Kaapse projekte is goedgekeur

    omdeur te dringnadie volgende ronde

    vanSolidariteitHelpendeHandsePro-

    jek van die Jaar-kompetisie.

    Die projekte is:

    V Projek CCC in Table View: Die projek

    wil graag mense wat uit gevangenisse en re-

    habilitasie-sentrums kom, n handvaardig-

    heid leer wat hulle kan gebruik om items te

    maak en te verkoop en sodoende n inkomste

    te verdien.

    V Projek Taakmag in Kraaifontein: Dit is

    n werkskeppingsprojek wat n uitpak- en

    skoonmaakdienste aan vervoeragentskappe

    lewer. Skeepshouers word binne 24 uur by

    die hawe uitgepak en aan die skepe terugbe-

    sorg.

    V Projek Wedloop in Tygerberg: Die wed-

    loop is spesifiek vir die jeug en sal in same-

    werking met skole plaasvind. Lekker-leke-

    wedlope hoop om beurse en afrigting vir be-

    hoeftige presteerders te bied.

    n Totaal van 27 projekte wat ontvang is,

    is goedgekeur om deur te dring na die vol-

    gende fase van die kompetisie.

    Anel du Preez, die projekorganiseerder,

    verduidelik dat Helpende Hand gereeld na-

    vraekryoorhoedaar in nbepaaldebehoefte

    voorsien kan word en hoe volhoubare ge-

    meenskapsprojekte van stapel gestuur en

    befonds kan word.

    Dit is juis na aanleiding van hierdie na-

    vrae dat Helpende Hand geld in die gemeen-

    skap wil terugploeg en deelnemers terself-

    dertydwil touwysmaak oor hoe n goeie pro-

    jek saamgestel kan word wat op die

    verligting, voorkoming en verbreking van

    armoede endie volhoubare bemagtiging van

    die gemeenskap fokus, s Du Preez.

    Hierdie drie projekte het aan die kriteria

    voldoen en bewys dat hulle doelwit om ar-

    moede te verlig, voorkom of verbreek, uit-

    voerbaar is en binne die voorgeskrewe be-

    groting en tydraamwerk val.

    Daar het wonderlike en innoverende

    idees uit die Wes-Kaap gekom om die ge-

    meenskap op te hef. Ek is baie opgewonde

    oor die projekte wat in die provinsie begin

    gaan word, s Du Preez.

    Sy verduidelik dat die projekte nou die ge-

    meenskap se ondersteuning nodig het omna

    die volgende ronde van die kompetisie deur

    te dring.

    Gemeenskappe kan vir die projekte stem

    deur n SMS eie aan die betrokke projek te

    stuur. Die gemeenskap se SMS-stemme be-

    paal hoeveel kapitaal Helpende Hand tot die

    projek se beskikking sal stel vir die drie

    maande lange implementeringsfase wat in

    Mei begin, s sy.

    Omaan die kompetisie deel te neem, beno-

    dig elke projek n minimum van 50 unieke

    SMS-stemme. Hoe meer stemme egter ont-

    vang word, hoe meer befondsing sal die pro-

    jek ontvang. As die projek 500 SMS-stemme

    ontvang, befonds Helpende Hand die projek

    met R45 000.

    Die gemplementeerde projekte sal in Ju-

    lie 2014volgensbepaaldekriteria gevalueer

    word, waarna drie wenners aangewys sal

    word wat dan onderskeidelik R150 000, R100

    siek uitgesaai is. Deel van haar prys was n

    liedjie, geskryf deur Pierre Rossouw, wat sy

    konopneem.GroterAs, wat ookal nmusiek-

    video is, speel op radiostasies reg oor die

    land. Haar liedjies speel tot op n radiostasie

    in Nederland. Pierre het vier ander liedjies

    ophaar albumsaammet haar geskryf. Chan-

    t verduidelik dat sy vir Pierre die woorde

    gegee het, terwyl hy die liedjies getoonset

    het. Nog n lied op die albumwat goed doen,

    is Blommis wat Chant se ma, Bernadette

    Beer, vir haar geskryf het. Die liedjie is n

    boodskap van n ma aan haar kind. Chant

    s alhoewel haar ma ook sing, skaal sy nou

    bietjie af om haar kinders n kans te gee.

    Sys altyd daar, s sy van haar ma se on-

    dersteuning.

    Chant se boetie is ook n sanger. Damien

    is bekend as die Klein Kaptein, en hy was

    net nege jaar oud toe hy in 2010 saam met

    Kurt Darren op die verhoog by KKNK ver-

    skyn het. Chant het self al by die KKNK op-

    getree en is gereeld by feeste om liefdadig-

    heidskonserte te aanskou. Chant hou van

    liefdadigheid en s waar sy kan, is sy altyd

    bereid om met liefdadigheidsprojekte te

    help, al is dit net om vir kindertjies, soos di

    van CHOC by wie sy gereeld kuier, liefde te

    wys. Hullemoetmynet vra, dan is ekdaar,

    s sy. Haar album word op die oomblik uit

    die hand uit verkoop, maar is wel ook by die

    OK-mini-mark in Kraaifontein verkryg-

    BRENDEN RUITER

    D

    ie huis naby die hoek van die straat is

    onopvallend. Voor die deur staan n

    karavaan en n rooiMini die outydse

    tipe. n Handgeskrewe kennisgewingbord

    gee die indruk dat dit amateurs is wat hier

    woon en werk: Johnny Tattoos.

    Dit is egter in die studio langs die huis

    waar n mens sien dit is kundiges se werk-

    plek. Vergrote prente van tatoeermerke

    hang die mure vol. Dan kom die legendarie-

    se Johnny Salmonsen in. Hy is in die volks-

    mond net as Johnny Tattoo bekend.

    Johnny is reeds 42 jaar n tatoeerkunste-

    naar en n kultusfiguur onder die liefheb-

    bers van velkuns. Mense kom van alle uit-

    hoeke van die stad, maar ook uit die platte-

    land om tatoes te kry.

    Ek het een jaar n tattoo machine in die

    hande gekry, s Johnny in sy kenmerkende

    sagte stem. Ek het toe saam met Jimmy

    Adams begin werk en my skills geslyp.

    Jimmy Adams was die eerste bekende ta-

    toeer-kunstenaar in Kaapstad.

    Mobiele eenheid

    Johnny het toe n mobiele eenheid op die

    been gebring en so ver as Durban en die

    Suidkus gereis om sy kuns te pleeg. Hy is

    nou al 22 jaar op dieselfde plek in Ruyter-

    wacht.

    Hy en sy jarelange vriend, Donnie Hey-

    denrych (54), werk saam. Donnie s hy
