STIG ORGANISASIE: 40 MENSE VIND NOU BAAT

Engel word vereer

BRENDEN RUITER

@ruitervaniewind

S

yhet op n dag in die plaaslike

kruidenierswinkel twee be-

jaardes gesien wat hul sente

moes omdraai en dit het haar lewe

verander.

Johanna Kotze (69), wat onlangs

deur die Merriman Lions met n

humanitre toekenning vereer is,

se lewe het onherroeplik verander

n daardie dag, twee jaar gelede, in

die winkel.

Die twee mense voor my moes

elke keer eers kyk of hulle genoeg

geld het vir die goed wat hulle wou

koop. Elke keer moes hulle iets te-

rugsit. My hart het uitgegaan na

die twee verwaarloosde, weerlose

mense.

Uiteindelik het die goed wat

hulle wou koop net R27 gekos en ek

het aangebied om daarvoor te be-

taal. Die tannie het omgedraai en

vir my ges: Thank you, are you

an angel from God?. Ek moes op

daardie oomblik daar wees, s

Kotze. Sy het die een vrou se tele-

foonnommer gevra sodat sy in kon-

tak kon bly.

Ons het begin om vir haar kos

te neem. Aanvanklik wou sy nie h

ons moes by haar deur ingaan nie

en het net die goed deur die venster

gevat. N drie weke het sy ons uit-

eindelik toegang gegee en ek kon

sien die plek is verwaarloos, ver-

tel Kotze.

Sy het n beroep op kennisse ge-

doen om hulp. Ek het nie eens ge-

weet hoe werk Facebook nie, maar

ek was aanlyn. Nie lank nie toe

trek daar n bakkie met n groot

sleepwa voormy deur in. Daarwas

n stoof, mikrogolf, n yskas en alle

soorte huisware. Ons kon die tan-

nie se huis skoonmaak en al die

goed daarin sit. Kort voor lank het

die Facebook-groep meer as 3 000

lede gehad en skenkings het inge-

stroom, s Kotze. Sy het die orga-

nisasie Locals Helping Locals ge-

stig en meer as 40 mense vind nou

baat. Bejaardes wat in Wendy-hui-

se en agterplase in die Edgemead,

Goodwood, Richwood en Bothasig

woon, kry elke week kos.

Volgens Kotze ontvang sy ver-

skillende skenkings wat sy dan vir

nie-bederfbare produkte verruil.

Ons ontvang van skilderye tot

potplante, maar ons kan mos nie

potplante vir mense gee nie. Ek

plaasdandie goedopmyFacebook-

blad en verruil dit vir kos. Ons is

so gesend dat my huis al soos n

pakplek lyk. Dit is omtrent net my

slaapkamer en badkamer wat pri-

vaat is. n Weldoener het selfs rak-

ke in my voorkamer aangebring

om goed te stoor, s sy.

So vinnig het die hulp inge-

stroom dat Kotze en die ses mense

wat haar help, uiteindelik van die

goed by n plakkerskampmoes uit-

deel. Ek het vir die eerste keer in

my lewe n plakkerskamp besoek,

waar ons onder meer speelgoed en

sopuitgedeel het. Die gesiggieswat

ek daar gesien het, sal ek nooit ver-

geet nie.

Kotze s sy het nie die toeken-

ning verwag nie. Ek was heelte-

mal in die duister daaroor. Hier

moet ek nou n toekenning voor

mense ontvang. Vir my het dit ge-

voel asof ek dit glad nie verdien

nie. Ek dank die Here vir di werk

wat ek doen en hoop hy sen my

met goeie gesondheid sodat ek kan

voortgaan om dit te doen.

Sy s die genoegdoening wat sy

uit die werk kry. is n vorm van

dankbaarheid.Johanna Kotze houvas hier van die skenkings wat sy ontvang het.

Myhart het uitge

gaan nadie twee

verwaarloosde,

weerlosemense.

On Tuesday 19 April two suspects appeared

in the Goodwood Magistrates Court for

possession of a stolen motor vehicle.

On Sunday 17 April at about 03:00 Consta-

bles StevenDrury and JustinMentoorwere

patrolling Voortrekker Road when they

saw a white Opel Kadett swerving all over

the road. The officers decided to follow the

vehicle because it looked suspicious. At

first they thought that the driverwas under

the influence of alcohol. They pulled over

the vehicle and tested it positively on a

Paarl East theft of motor vehicle case.

The suspects, aged 30 and 31,who claimed

they bought the vehicle amonth earlier, ap-

peared in theGoodwoodMagistrates Court

on a charge of possession of a stolen motor

vehicle.

Swerving vehicle turns out to be stolen car

Contractor woes settled

ANDR BAKKES

@andrebakkes

A

four-month long dispute between a

building contractor and his clients

will be resolved after the former

agreed to pay back the deposit.

The clients, Llewellyn and Tena Johnson,

asked a local building contractor to build a

wall with palisade fencing and a pedestrian

and drive-in gate.

The contractor completed the wall, but

not the palisade fencing or the gates.

A job which the Johnsons expected to be

finished in January, has dragged on to

April, and by the time they contactedTyger-

Burger, it had still not been resolved.

According to the Johnsons, they paid the

contractor R55 400, of which R15 000 was a

deposit on work still to be done.

Over the weekend the Johnsonswere still

considering taking legal action.

OnMonday the contractor toldTygerBur-

ger he has agreed to repay the deposit of

R15 000 to the Johnsons.

Says Llewellyn: He has made promises

for four months and has not been forthcom-

ing. But if he repays the deposit, we will not

seek legal advice. We feel vindicated and

will be prepared to cut our losses.

According to him the work done to com-

plete the wall was satisfactory, even though

it needs a second coat of paint.

When the contractor was asked why the

jobwas postponedhe said its a long story.

Tena has posted many complaints about

the contractor on Facebook and the Hello

Peter website and when Llewellyn was

asked if they will remove the posts if the

manpaysup, he saidhewouldhave to speak

to his wife.

WhenLlewellynwasaskedwhathewould

do differentlywhen looking for a contractor

he responded: I would contact their refer-

ences before I hire them.

The contractor is not registered at theNa-

tional Home Builders Registration Council

(NHBRC), but this is not a prerequisite for

builders who do renovations.

Agnes van den Berg, branding coordina-

tor of NHBRC, verifies this, but adds that

it remains advisable for these type of build-

ers to register nonetheless.

The NHBRC released some tips in a press

release when considering hiring a builder:

Check the reputation of the home build-

er, take time to talk to housing consumers

whohavemadeuse of the builders services

in the past,make sure the builder gives you

a contract that covers the building of your

home, before signing the contract make

sure that you have read it and understand

it, and that the description of the work to

be done and specifications ofmaterials, fin-

ishes and fittings to be provided are in ac-

cordance with your requirements. Varia-

tions to these during the course of the con-

tract can be very expensive. Consumers

who are in any doubt as to what is being

offered should ask the builder to clarify or

to obtain legal advice. Also, carefully check

the form of contract offered by the builder

(its terms and conditions), keep a copy of

the written agreement and all other docu-

ments, and never pay the builder in ad-

vance of work being done only authorise

payment once work has been completed to

your satisfaction.

Wrong land use info given

BRENDEN RUITER

@ruitervaniewind

T

he City of Cape Towns Planning and

Building Development Management

(PBDM)Department raised the issue

of why a building was marked as a place

of worship rather than a school in an ap-

plication for a rezoning.

TygerBurger reported in its front page

story last week about how the community

of Monte Vista was up in arms over the

proposed erection of a cellphone tower on

the premises of a crche (Trouble over

tower, TB 20 April). The community

fears the tower will endanger the lives of

the children at the crche.

Local resident and the driving force be-

hind the opposition to the tower, Larry

Bashkier, says the application should be

withdrawn because of false information

submitted in the application.

There is a big difference between the

two. It comes down to lying, he says.

Johan van derMerwe, the Citys Mayco

member for energy, environmental and

spatial planning, says they raised the is-

sue with the applicant after it was adver-

tised. From the applicants feedback, it

appears as though they indicated the in-

correct information, based on what was

allegedly provided by their client, says

Van der Merwe.

According to him it is not the Citys re-

sponsibility to inform parents about the

tower. The applicationwas submitted by

a town planning consultant with the nec-

essary Power of Attorney from the regis-

tered property owner. It is therefore con-

sidered the responsibility of the property

or registered owner or operator of the ear-

ly childhood centre to inform the parents

of the application.

The application was advertised for

public comment and a large number of ob-

jections were received from surrounding

property owners, says Van der Merwe.

Asked if there was any scientific proof

that the tower will pose no danger to the

children, he says there is none.

Generally, there is no scientific proof

of the impact that a cellular mast has on

the health of residents living around or in

close proximity to masts. However, the

health department has electromagnetic

fields (EMF) exposure limit guidelines,

which guide the levels of emissions from

cell masts. The applicants installation

can be measured or reports may be re-

quested by the environmental health de-

partment from the applicant, which need

to indicate the emissions fromsuch instal-

lations, says Van der Merwe.

It is, however, not final that the mast

will be erected. The application was ad-

vertised and the deadline for public com-

ment was 18 April. The department will

process the application and, as per the

standard procedure for processing devel-

opment applications, refer the received

objections and internal departmental

comments to the applicant for comment,

reiterates Van der Merwe.

Bashkier says hell write to the relevant

authorities andask that thewhole process

be stopped. We cannot let this go. The

City must do the right thing and stop the

whole process, says Bashkier.

A man who wishes to remain anony-

mous, says he was chased away from the

crchewhenhewanted to informparents.

So you are hearing about cat shows con-

stantly, and seeing the pictures of winning

cats in newspapers and on social media, but

have you even wondered how your own

purebred or domestic would have done at

such a show?

Now you have the opportunity to prove

that the Western Province Cat Club

(WPCC) will be hosting its first Champion-

ship Show of the year on Saturday 28 May

at the Edgemead Community Hall. To enter

the purebred section, your catmust be older

than 16 weeks on the day of the show and

registeredwith the SouthAfricanCatCoun-

cil (SACC).

However, the show isnt just for purebred

and registered cats not-so-pure household

cats may be entered in a special section for

domestics.

TheWPCC is very fortunate to have a spe-

cial celebrity judge for the domestic pets at

this show. JanHendrik van derWesthuizen

earlier this yearbecame the first SouthAfri-

can chef in the countrys history to be

awarded the highly prestigious and elusive

Michelin Star. He is the owner of Restau-

rant JAN in Nice, France, and also an au-

thor, photographer and stylist.

V Formore information on entering the show, phone

021 712 2001 (not later than 21:00).

T

he City of Cape Town and the

WesternProvinceMotorClub

have teamed up for a weekly

event at the Killarney race track,

aimed at curbing illegal street rac-

ing.

According to a statement, theRo-

bot Racing event allows car enthu-

siasts to race against each other on

a track instead of the street.

The start of the race is signalled

by a traffic light turning from red

to green, hence the name Robot

Racing, and the first driver cross-

ing the line wins.

Basic safety check

All cars undergo a basic safety

check before being permitted onto

the track to reduce the possibility

of incidents involving the drivers.

The pilot event was held in De-

cember, with the weekly events

kicking off in mid-March.

The Citys R450 000 contribution

split between the safety and secu-

rity and tourism, events and eco-

nomic development directorates

is for a six-month trial.

Maycomember for safety and se-

curity, JP Smith, says in the past

they have received feedback that

people resort to illegal street races

because there are too few events at

Killarney.

So the City has literally put its

money where its mouth is by fund-

ing these events and taking the fre-

quency from monthly to weekly.

Its taken a while to secure the

funding that I alluded to a year ago,

but the City has come to the party

and I hope that racing enthusiasts

will join us and stay off the

streets.

According to the Western Prov-

ince Motor Club, race participa-

tion is free, but there is a gate fee

of R50. This, together with the

Citys contribution, covers the cost

of employing marshals, security

and safety officials as well as en-

suring the presence of medical

staff.

A portion of the Citys contribu-

tion will also be used to cover the

cost of erecting noise abatement

structures to minimise any dis-

turbance to local residents.

These structures have been de-

signed by andwill be erectedunder

the guidance of the acoustic engi-

neering consultants contracted to

the Western Province Motor Club.

A portion will also be utilised to

promote these events and road

safety in general via the well

known radio personality Ready D.

Committed to safety

Wewelcome this joint initiative

and the Citys tangible support,

says the executive manager at Kil-

larney International Raceway, Des

Easom.

Killarney is an international

multi-purpose event venue with

ever growing popularity among

racing participants, enthusiasts

and families, and we are commit-

ted to track and road safety for all

users motorists, motorcyclists,

cyclists and pedestrians,he says.

At Killarney we offer all the ex-

citement and competition of street

racing, but under safe conditions

and as a pleasant event experi-

ence.

Plan to put a stop to illegal racing

A new

weekly

street

racing

event will

be held at

Killarney in

an attempt

to curb

illegal

racing.

ie polisie in Goodwood het mense ge-

waarsku om uit te kyk vir swende-

laars wat by kitsbanke rondhang.

Diewaarskuwing komnadat dit vandees-

week op n Facebookblad, wat vir die be-

kamping van misdaad gestig is, gegons het

oor die bejaarde paartjie wat van R1 000 be-

roof is. Volgens n inskrywing op die blad

het die paartjie geld onttrek, waarna hulle

deur drie welgeklede mans genader is.

Die mans het hulle as polisielede voorge-

doen en ges hulle ondersoek n saak van

roof. N hulle die paartjie se bankkaart be-

kom het, het hulle R1 000 onttrek.

Lt. Wayne Theunis, polisiewoordvoerder

van die polisie in Goodwood, s die saak is

nie by hulle aangemeld nie, maar hy is be-

wus van die slenter. Dis n ou slenter wat

nou weer kop uitsteek. Die boewe sit iets

in die kitsbankwatmaak dat jou bankkaart

vassit. As jy wegbeweeg, bly jou bankkaart

agter en hulle haal dit dan uit. Voor jy jou

o uitvee, is daar geld uit jou rekening

weg, s Theunis. Die slenter waarin

skelms hulle as polisielede voordoen, kom

ook so een keer per jaar voor.

Mense moet vra vir identifikasie as ie-

mand hulle as polisielede voordoen. Ons sit

ook met die probleem dat die man op straat

nie weet hoe n polisielid se identifikasie-

kaart lyk nie, dus kom die skelmsmet enig-

iets weg, s Theunis.

Hy gee die volgende wenke:

.Moet nooit sonder jou kaart wegbe-

weeg van die kitsbank nie.

. Staan by die bank as die kaart vassit

en bel die nommerwat op diemasjien gegee

word om die kaart te kanselleer.

.Moet nooit jou kaart aan n vreemde-

ling oorhandig nie.

. As jy by n sentrum is, vra die sentrum-

bestuur om die polisie te bel om te bevestig

of mense wel lede van die polisie is.

Ou kitsbankslenter

steekweer kop uit

Die speurders van die Bothasig-polisie is in

die wolke nadat verskeie verdagtes wat

voor die hof gedaag is, gevonnis is.

toerustingwatmense in staat stel om gratis

na betaalkanale te kyk, is n boete van

R20 000 opgel.

Die boete is vir vyf jaar opgeskort op

voorwaarde dat hy hom nie weer aan die-

selfde misdaad skuldig maak nie. Alle toe-

rusting is aan die staat verbeurd verklaar.

Twee dwelmhandelaars se sake is ook af-

gehandel. In die een geval is n smokkelaar

tot vier maande tronkstraf gevonnis of hy

moet n boete van R4 000 betaal. n Straat-

handelaarwatmet tik betrap is, is gevonnis

tot 20 dae tronkstraf of n boete van R1 000.

n Inwoner (37) van Tableview is aan

skadig het, is met R3 000 beboet. Hy is aan

Bothasig police has reminded firearm

owners to check their firearm licenses

and competencies to ensure they are still

valid.

According to Warrant Officer Jacques

Naud, the designated firearm officer at

the Bothasig Police Station, the law re-

quires fire arm owners to apply 90 days

before the expiry date of the license and

competency card.

Naud says his office has identified that

some residents are interpreting the law

incorrectly in terms of the renewal peri-

od. When applying for renewal of the li-

censes, the applicationmust be handed in

90 days before the license expires. In order

to comply, the necessary documentation

needs to be obtained and handed back to

my office before the 90 day period starts,

says Naud.

When applying for the renewal of a com-

petency certificate, it is not necessary to

go for training again. Firearm owners on-

ly need to apply for renewal of it and the

firearm license at the local firearm office.

If it has expired, they need to contact their

local firearm office as soon as possible.

V Anyone who needs more information regarding

the application or renewal process can contact

MninaweDaweti on 021 559 9414 or 021 559 9425.

Check firearm licences early

S

ocial media is clearly a potent tool to

makeyourvoiceheard and even some-

times getting a reply from those in

power.

After last weeks Afrikaans TygerBurger

article entitled Arts was onbeskof the sto-

ry was posted on the newspapers Facebook

page. In turn the post was shared 11 times

and reached 7 422 people.

Where many people highlighted their

own strife theyve had with Tygerberg Hos-

pital, others said theyve only had positive

experiences there.

Says Koos Carstens: Last week I went to

this hospital for the first time and I have no

complaints. On every floor the staff was

very friendly.

Margie Meyer agrees with Carstens, but

there are others who have experienced sim-

ilar issues than Esther du Toit, the woman

quoted in the original article.

An incident first reported on Facebook a

couple of weeks ago also came to the atten-

tion of TygerBurger. A man hit out at the

supposed ineptitude of the people in power

to do something about the state of public

hospitals, posting a desperate plea on his

Facebook page during one of his visits.

Oh my goodness, I am speechless. I am

speaking to patients and nowhear there are

patients who had been sitting here formore

than two days ... Noooooo, pleaseeee help.

These people are human beings ...!

His post, as well as the highly critical fol-

low-upposts, reached authorities andhe got

several responses from them.

In one of his next posts he wrote: I have

to acknowledge the Western Cape MEC for

health, Nomafrench Mbombo. She was

alerted about the situation last night and

her office responded immediately. They fol-

lowed up today with me to assure me that

they are paying attention to the issue.

An article elicited the following response

from a reader: My husband was at Tyger-

berg Hospital for three months in which

time I have witnessed that nurses when

called by patients either take their time

or have abrupt answers, like the patient

needs to wait. When the shift changes at

19:00 half the nursing staff are already at the

bus stop, leaving only one or two toman the

wards ...

The hospital cannot dictate which ave-

nues people should follow when they have

complaints, but hospital spokespersonLati-

cia Pienaar nonetheless highlights the fol-

lowing possibilities: There is a provincial

SMS line where people can SMS Help to

31022; a please call me number

079 769 1207, the complainant can call the

hotline 0860 142 142 or send an email to ser-

[email protected].

Media not the only

complaint avenue

D

welmhandel in Bothasig het die so-

veelste terugslag gekry toe twee

smokkelaars onlangs aangekeer

is.

Aan die voorpunt van die inhegtenis-

nemings was die stasiebevelvoerder,

lt.kol. Patrick Jacobs. In die eerste voor-

val is n 29-jarige man van Philippi aan-

gekeer toe hy die dwelms khat en koka-

ien verkoop het. Jacobs en sy span het

bedekte operasies uitgevoer toe hulle die

inhegtenisnemings doen. Ons het eers

net n bietjie dwelms gekry,maar toe ons

sy motor deursoek, is nog dwelms en n

groot hoeveelheid geld gevind.

n Ruk later, tydens die tweede gedeel-

te van die operasie, is n 42-jarige man

ook weens dwelmhandel in hegtenis ge-

neem. Beide gaan binnekort in die hof

verskyn.

Volgens Jacobs gaan hulle volhou met

di soort operasies. Ek wil dwelmhan-

delaars waarsku dat dwelms nie in Bo-

thasig geduld gaan word nie. Ons gaan

gereeld operasies hou en as jy iets onwet-

tigs doen, gaan jy gevang word. Hierdie

euwel gaan met wortel en tak uitgeroei

word, s Jacobs.

Hy het n beroep op inwoners van Bo-

thasig gedoen om die polisie te help in

die stryd teen dwelms. Al het jy nie al

die inligting nie, sal ons die ondersoek-

werk doen, volgens Jacobs.

V Mense met inligting kan die polisie by

021 559 9400 skakel.

Dwelmsmouse loop hul vas

Hier is van die dwelms wat gevind is.

An 18-year-old suspect is behind bars for

house break-in after Goodwood police

found him in possession of presumed stolen

property.

On Tuesday 19 April at about 13:30 Ser-

geant VuyaniManqina and Constable Nim-

rod Shilalhkewere onpatrolwhen they saw

a man pushing and carrying a lawnmower

and weed eater. The officers followed the

man to Vasco Railway Station where they

asked him about the property.

The suspect could not give a satisfactory

explanation for the property and took the

policemen on a wild goose chase. After the

officers visited three addresses, they decid-

ed to ask around where they first saw the

suspect. At one of the addresses in Murray

Street, Goodwood, the owner recognised

the goods as his property.

When he checked his garage where the

goods were stored, he realised it was miss-

ing. The suspect was arrested.

The suspect, from theMarikana informal

settlement, appeared in theGoodwoodMag-

istrates Court on a charge of house break-

in.

Two sides to

every story;

only one truth

There are always two sides to every

story.

Theres the side we see, and then

theres the side we shouldnt.

In a world of capitalism and corpora-

tions, one has to wonder how much of

the information we consume is being

force-fed to us and how much is truly

objective reporting.

In the US, for example, a number of

independent broadcasters have been

gaining momentum with the help of the

internet.

With no influence

from advertisers

(or the presidential

candidates they

support), the

stories they report

on and how they

report on them, are

vastly different

from mainstream

broadcasters.

It was BBC

executive John

Reith who first

outlined the role of

journalists as to

educate, inform and entertain. Education

and information are the two most valua-

ble commodities of the modern age, yet,

very often, we are too busy looking for

entertainment to pay attention to these

elements.

More importantly, as early as 1787,

print journalism is often referred to as

The Fourth Estate, which, in a nut-

shell, refers to a political or social force

that isnt always officially recognised.

The medias role in changing the world

for the better in the past is undeniable.

Here, for example, photographers like

Sam Nzima showed the rest of the world

the reality of Apartheid South Africa,

even when the government was blocking

these images from the local press.

A look at the history books shows that

governmental impact on the media is not

uncommon, often with disastrous effects.

The Nazis ruled their people with the

help of Joseph Goebbels and his propa-

ganda while a string of American presi-

dents tried to control how their citizens

got their news about the Vietnam War.

The only difference between the 1940s,

1970s and now, is the shift of power. As

capitalism started to steadily rise in

popularity and influence after the Second

World War, the business sector slowly

gained more power over the people who

should have been governing them.

A colleague once pointed out that every

news story should be measured by who

stands to benefit most from it. The news

looks a little different when you start

considering it with this question in mind.

n Gesaghebbende onafhanklike

navorsingsentrum, die Centre

of Development and Enterprise

(CDE), het in Januarie

gerapporteer oor The real cost

of compliance: The impact of

South African regulatory

requirements on independent

schools. Hulle bevind onder

meer dat die private skoolsek-

tor hopeloos oorgereguleer is

en veel hor eise aan private

skole gestel word as aan

staatskole; en dat die koste van

die rompslomp om n private

skool te registreer dit feitlik

onmoontlik maak om klein

private skole te registreer.

Hulle bereken byvoorbeeld

dat die werklike koste om n

private skool te registreer

tussen R270 000 en R290 000

beloop, ongeag die grootte van

die skool. Dit vreet hulpbronne

op wat vir opvoeding bedoel is.

Maar dit plaas ook registra-

sie buite die bereik van enige

mikroskooltjie. Dit is n

skending van sulke skooltjies

se wetlike en grondwetlike reg

om te bestaan.

Dieselfde owerheid wat

hierdie laste op private onder-

wys plaas, bedryf een van die

slegste skoolstelsels ter wreld,

volgens sy eie verslae. Die

gevolg is honderdduisende

desperate ouers soos Roelof

Coertzen wie se brief op 13

April (TB Bellville) verskyn

het. Hulle bel en e-pos my

daagliks.

Dit moet ons dus nie verbaas

dat daar letterlik duisende

onwettige private skooltjies

in al die gemeenskappe in die

land is nie selfs in die

armstes. In n vorige ondersoek

het CDE bevind dat hierdie

skooltjies beter resultate lewer

as beide staats- en geregistreer-

de private skole.

n Mens slaan jou hande

saam oor die pronkende

politici en opgeblase ampte-

naartjies wat probeer jag maak

op hierdie skooltjies wat slegs

bestaan omdat dieselfde politici

en amptenare sulke vrot

onderwys verskaf. Wat hulle

Vrot onderwys

Kobus of Kuils River queried

the double increase recorded for

his water usage (Hoekom

skielik die groot waterlesing,

TB, 20 April). My latest meter

reading also reflects exactly

double the amount recorded last

month, amounting to a cost of

over R900 extra. My December

and January payments differed

by R1000, so it seems to seesaw

from month to month regard-

less of efforts to contain costs.

R427.13 has been charged for

sewerage. My previous payment

was R137.25. I know that this is

calculated as a percentage of

the water usage but I am a lone

pensioner with no domestic

help. My cistern is not leaking.

I have not had diarrhoea nor

am I incontinent but it seems

the toilet is another luxury I

must forego if I am to continue

living in my own home.

The meter readings are all

recorded as being actual

readings but I question the

validity of these statements, the

honesty of the meter readers

and the powers that manage the

City of Cape Town. The crea-

tion of a mega city obviously

creates a bigger basket for

greater profit from ill gotten

gains. Kobus and I are surely

not the only suckers, or are we

just victims of Murphys law?

Ek was opgewonde om te sien

daar gaan padwerke wees op

die hoek van Okavango- en

Hennopsstraat. Ek het gedink

die uitgang by Langeberghoogte

gaan verbreed word! Maar nee,

dis slegs instandhoudingswerk

op die Okavangopad. Lange-

berghoogte het reeds ongeveer

300 huise, dus 600 voertuie (2

per huis). Een baan vir toegang

en een baan vir n uitgang is

hopeloos te min. Wintermaande

verspoel die gebied by die robot

en slegs viertrekvoertuie kan

daar deur. Ons ander is gehok!

Die area gaan blykbaar verder

uitbrei met nog 77 wooneenhe-

de! Dus, nog bykomende

voertuie wat slegs die een in- of

uitgang gebruik. Wat as almal

hul huise moet ontruim in n

The annual Twitter Blanket

Drive is back bigger than ever.

This year the campaign has

spread its wings to Australia for

the first time. Collections have

already started in Melbourne.

The Twitter Blanket Drive

started seven years ago and sees

South Africas Twitter commu-

nity unite to help donate thou-

sands of warm blankets for the

poor just in time for winter.

Proteas Fire & Ice Hotel will

act as the main drop-off zone for

anyone interested in donating

blankets. They will also host the

final event on Thursday 26 May

where donors and Capetonians

are invited to join in counting all

the blankets, while enjoying the

sounds of some local artists.

In the northern suburbs, the

drop-off zone is at Love Pilates

Studio in Durbanville.

around the legalities to claim the

announced the two had been given

the thumbs up.

W

at beteken dit om

God se kind te

wees?

Dt is die ondertoon van pas-

toor Lodewyk Spies van Son-

straal se nuwe boek: Bid s vir

n wonderwerk.

Lodewyk het die 40-dag-ge-

bedsuitdaging in rekordtyd

geskryf nadat hy n uitdaging

van Carpe Diem Media ont-

vang het.

Toe hy met sy debuutwerk

begin het, het Lodewyk geweet

dat hy sy idees doeltreffend

moes kommunikeer. Mense

is besig; meeste mense is nie

lus om n 700-blad-boek te lees

nie hulle het nie die tyd of

kopspasie daarvoor nie.

Dis weens di feit dat hy be-

sluit het om die boek s te

skryf dat die leser so twee

blaaie per dag oor n tydperk

van 40 dae kan lees.

Ek dink daars genoeg

voorbeelde uit die Bybel oor

waar 40 dae vandaan kom, s Lodewyk.

Vroeg in boek

Sommer vroeg in die boek word lesers

gevra om n lysie wonderwerke wat hulle

nodig het, saam te stel en te rangskik van

klein wonderwerke tot grotes. In sy boek

konfronteerLodewyk lesersmethul lysies

en hoe mense deur die hekkies voor hulle

kan kom. Vir hom is dit belangrik dat

mense verstaan wat dit vir hulle beteken

om n kind van God te wees en Bid s vir

n wonderwerk is gemik daarop om lesers

te leer oor wie hulle is en hoe om hul ma-

nier van dink te herposisioneer.

Hierdie is nie n resepteboeknie; ekwil

vir jou verduidelik hoe werk die kom-

buis. Lodewyk s die boek praatmeer oor

gebedsinfrastruktuur.

Een van my gunsteling-onderwerpe

waaroor ek praat is WhatsApp-gebedsket-

tings hoor God jou oor jy baie is, of hoor

Hy jou omdat jy glo?

Uiteindelik moet jy genoeg selfver-

troue h om te s: As ek regtig glo Hys

my pa, dan kan ek op n baie andermanier

met Hom interaksie h.

Verhouding

Lodewyk voel dat godsdiens dikwels

mense se verhoudingmet God pro-

fessioneel maak en dat daar geen

ruimte vir vrymoedigheid is nie.

n Mens moet volgens hom dieself-

de verhouding met God h as wat

T

he annual Slave Route Challenge,

which sees runners taking on a route

that encompasses anarrayof SouthAf-

ricasmost historical sites, has become a fa-

vourite on the calendar of novice and elite

runners alike.

The race, of which TygerBurger is a me-

dia sponsor, takes place on Mothers Day

(Sunday 8 May).

Event spokesperson Fatima Allie is ex-

tremely passionate about this race.

Born in the Bo-Kaap, Allie was raised in

Walmer Estate and went to school in Dis-

trict Six. She is a self-professed defendant

of the Cape Malays.

When it comes to the Slave Route Chal-

lenge itself, we look at our ancestors who

came from Indonesia, Java and Malaysia.

They were the ones who came with all

the skills; they were the builders. Somy an-

cestors were not slaves per s; my ancestors

were exiled from Indonesia to the Cape,

says Allie.

She goes on to say that because the slaves

were forced to work and interact with other

labourers brought to the area, that is how

all the cultures started to mix and that as

a result started to weave the fabric which

meshes South Africas rich history.

If you look around, the oldest standing

building is the Castle of Good Hope. The

Castle of Good Hopewas built by the slaves.

Look at City Hall and the Grand Parade

all of these iconic and old places and struc-

tures in Cape Town were all built by the

slaves.

Then you realise that there are so many

historical sites throughout Cape Town that

people did not even know of, adds Allie.

Besides the historical aspect the race af-

fords itself to, Allie says there is an amazing

atmosphere of togetherness on race day.

It is the spirit of Ubuntu that you feel.

You will see a grandmother who has never

ever walked (in an event) in her entire life.

She is nowwalking the 5kmwith her grand-

children because her daughter and her hus-

band are going to be running the 10km

while their teenager is running the 21km,

so this is a family event.

It is about people coming together from

all walks of life, all religious denomina-

tions, fromCape Town and from out of Cape

Town, from the continent and even over-

seas, she says.

Allie reminded those who still wish to

participate in the 21km race to enter online

no later than Sunday 24 April. She con-

firmed that there will still be opportunities

to enter the other three events (5km fun

run/walk, 10km run and 10km big walk) on

Sunday 1May aswell as Friday 6 and Satur-

day 7 May at Cape Towns City Hall.

Come and explore this whole journey of

the Slave Route Challenge where you run

through the Castle, District Six, and Gar-

dens, through the Bo-Kaap and the Sea

Point area and back onto the Grand Parade

where you can see the beauty of Cape Town.

What other country can you stand on the

Grand Parade and look to see Table Moun-

tain, Devils Peak, and Signal Hill and then

you see Table Bay? Show me another place

that is as perfect as Cape Town, exclaimed

Allie.
