MANY people either look forward to the festive pe­ riod and begin their countdown to Christmas in Oc­ tober, while others are left running for the hills to avoid the ‘silliness’ that comes with the season. As we get ready to wind down and take a breath­ er, we decided to reflect on some of the wonderful reasons to celebrate the year that was. Yes, we can talk about some of the lowlights as well (no pun on the word ‘lights’), but that would not be very festive at all. The team at the Fever has had a wonderful year and has shared some truly remarkable memories with you. We’ve had an action­packed year from meeting wonderful individuals who are slowly changing their communities one step at a time to covering campaigns that shows a proactive community who are willing to fight for their beloved home towns.

HE Margate Business Association says it is pleased with the town’s appearance and has had no complaints or negative feedback this holiday season. Speaking to Fever, chairman, Martie Walker, said the town was neat and busy, even under the current economic climate. “Business owners are doing their bit to keep Margate looking great. We also have a good relationship with the Hibiscus Coast Municipality,” said Walker. “The municipality usually responds in good time to our requests. Few things take longer to get sorted out, but in the end it is always done,” she said. Walker said the association also had a good relationship with the Margate SAPS. “The only slightly negative thing I have to say about Margate is that the sign welcoming people to the area is in the wrong place. It should

The garden feature, situated where Walker believes the welcome sign should be, is maintained by the owners of Michael Frey’s Fresh Meat and Koko’s nightclub.

Senzi’s staff also ensure that the streets are cleaned and kept clear of litter after they lock up every

Amakhosi equipped with judicial skills

A

MAKHOSI from various tribal houses within the Ugu District attended a five-day workshop at Desroches Hotel in Margate last week. The workshop was co-ordinated by the South African Judicial Education Institute (Sajei), Cogta and the National House of Traditional Leaders. Inkosi Thembinkosi Mavundla, who sits on the national Executive Committee of traditional leaders, said the aim of the workshop was to train male and female Amakhosi about judicial procedures in their tribal courts. Mavundal said the decision to have this training programme was taken after it was raised that they lack the skills when it comes to making judgment in cases involving the rights of people as per the Bill of Right and the Constitution and when it comes to civil and criminal cases. “The chief justice realised there was a need for training Amakhosi as judicial advocates, therefore Sajei included the Amakhosi in its training schedule,” he said. Chief magistrate and Cluster

passed and signed by the president,” said Bhekumthetho. Ngubane said judgment writing, ethics, ubuntu, customary marriages, culture versus religion were also some of the topics discussed. “Professor Sihawu Ngubane of University of KwaZulu-Natal gave a presentation highlighting two important issues - the role that traditional leaders should look into, cases of maintenance, domestic violence, harassment, child court and

the Child Justice Act matters, which are matters Amakhosi normally pass onto the magistrate’s court,” said Bhekumthetho. The speakers encouraged good working relationships between the police, traditional leaders and magistrates. Inkosi Mboneni Mjoli of Ebuhlebezwe tribal court in Ixopo said they learnt that as Amakhosi they have to look presentable at all times. “If we look presentable, we will be respected by our people,” he said. Inkosi Ncamcile Dlamini said she encourages Amakhosi, who never attended, to be part of the next one. “We thank stakeholders involved in this training for sharing this information as it will be of value to us as leaders in our tribal courts, and as women tribal leaders we send a message to other female Amakhosi to be part of these programmes because they are educational,” said Dlamini. The next Amakhosi training will be held at the end of August.

Housing rectification project to start PRECIOUS GUMEDE >>precious.gumede@media24.com MANY Gamalakhe houses do not comply with building requirements as they were built prior to 1994. Some still have asbestos roofs, now deemed illegal. Recently KZN Human Settlements MEC Ravi Pillay and Hibiscus Coast Municipality Mayor Cllr Nomusa Mqwebu and other leadership, launched a housing rectification project by opening the first show house in Gamalakhe, Ward 28. A total of 273 units will be renovated and enhanced at a cost of more than R31 million. Pillay officially handed over the first house to demonstrate the minimum requirement standards to the house beneficiaries. Mqwebu introduced Ngcolosi Consulting Engineers, who have been appointed implementing agents for the project. “We welcome the partnership between Department of Human Settlements and Ngcolosi Consulting Engineers, who were appointed implementing agents on 8 June.” Finalisation of contracts between the municipality, the department and Ngcolosi is being finalised and it is expected that the project will begin in August. “The contract is expected to be implemented over a three-year period,” she said.

Rapists get 20 years plus, each TWO men, Sphamandla Mkhize (27) and Syanda Shinga (23) were sentenced to 20 years imprisonment for rape and five years’ for kidnapping in the Scott­ burgh Regional Court last Wednesday. National Prosecution Authority spokesperson Na­ tasha Ramkisson said the sentences relate to offences that took place in December 2012 in the Mtwalume area near Hibberdene. The complainant was on her way to meet her boy­ friend when she was accosted by both the accused. “They threatened her with a knife and took her to a bush where they raped her. Ramkisson said the accused kept the complainant in the bush all night and took her home the next morn­ ing. “The next day Mkhize took the complainant to her home, proposing love to her. The complainant report­ ed the matter when she got home and a case was opened,” said Ramkisson.

Hospice prepares for Mandela Day MANDELA Day has always been celebrated by Khanya Hospice staff and this year is no acception. Nursing staff often find patients

alone and sick at home with no one to care for them. They also find that there are just not enough means to keep them warm and comfortable, and Hospice staff and volunteers have been crocheting and knitting, not waiting for handouts. “We must also give to be able to receive,” said Neil MacDonald, CEO of Khanya Hospice. “There are wonderful people who support Khanya Hospice and the free palliative nursing care that it offers - a big thank you to them,” he said. Khanya Hospice provides free palliative nursing care from Umkomaas to Hibberdene and can be contacted on 083 597 8985 or hospice @scottnet.co.za - Supplied.

THE Miss Hibiscus beauty pageant, in aid of Cansa, was held at the Wild Coast Sun on Saturday evening. Ten finalists took to the stage and impressed the judges with their beauty, charm and intellect, making it difficult for them to narrow it down to only three. The entertainment line-up included local singer, Lizanne Nair, The Ruth Jakeman Dance Studio and Rohini Bissal who performed a belly dance. “Each contestant performed different sequences from dressed in gothic to being princesses. They also went through an intense photoshoot for their portfolio. We would like to thank all sponsors for making this event possible,” said organiser Reshica Naicker. The winner received prizes to the value of R5 000. “In terms of the money raised, we are unsure as we are still sorting out expenses,” said Naicker. Judges were, Mario Ogle, Pat Symcox, Anusha Bissal, Bonny Richardson, Yachika Sewpersad and Dr Khanaya Maharaj.

ETHODIST Church members held their seventh South Coast Regional MiniConvention at Bhongweni Kokstad Circuit recently.

Members of six circuits including Port Shepstone, Umzinto, Harding, Matatiele, Deyi and Kokstad attended. Executive member of Port Shepstone Circuit, Poppy Cele said the women did an amazing job of donating food parcels for disadvan-

taged, people, adding that 12 needy Kokstad families were identified. “The ladies were very supportive and donated food parcels and other items to assist 12 disadvantaged families from the Bhongweni area. “ We would like to thank all the female Manyano members for their contributions,” said Cele.

Burial costs to increase ACCORDING FNB CEO, Lee Bromfield, the cost of burying someone is to increase. In a recent media statement he said with the price increases in fuel and electricity South Africans could see the average cost of burying someone rising significantly. On average, the cost of a burial is estimated to be between R30 000 and R40 000, but with the rising cost of living, burial could increase substantially. Bromfield said burial costs take into account buying a coffin, catering, hiring a tent, buying a headstone, fuel or travel expenses for the family and the amount of electricity used when preparing for a funeral. He said other expenses that are not always considered include the printing of a programme or an obituary, and even the airtime used to stay in touch with key suppliers such as undertakers or caters. “If unplanned for, all these expenses could easily overwhelm families and negatively impact the hopes of providing a decent burial. Some families may be fortunate to have members who can contribute towards funeral expenses, such goodwill cannot be guaranteed, especially in these tough economic times,” he said. Bromfield advised that there are a

number of options that people should consider in order to cope with high funeral expenses such as taking out funeral cover, reviewing your funeral cover to align with your family needs, being disciplined about paying your monthly premiums, ensuring your cover provides great value at a relative price and selecting a trustworthy provider to avoid being let down when it’s time to claim. He said in most cases people tend to ignore their responsibility. “People tend to ignore the responsibility of taking up a funeral plan until they are confronted with a situation that requires it. You’ll be surprised how many people find themselves in excessive debt simply because they neglected to make the necessary arrangements to provide a decent burial for their loved ones,” said Bromfield. South Africans are fortunate because funeral plans are easily accessible. However, Bromfield advised consumers to exercise caution because of the vast amount of unscrupulous providers in the market. “One’s decision to take up funeral cover is as important as the provider you choose to be insured with.” Bromfield said people should choose a funeral cover that suits their pocket. - Supplied.

“A session of bhajans and kirtans by the Arthi Nagara from Durban will be enjoyed and everyone is welcome,” said Singh. Prasad and lunch will be served after prayers. For more information, contact Singh on 039 685 4767.

NPO to hold fun day

>> In total 144 pupils participated

THE Pro Deo Care Group invites everyone to a fun day for people living with disabilities on 21 July at the Lions Club Hall in Ramsgate. The purpose of the day is for Pro Deo to interact with people with different physical needs and get to know how to assist them. Pro Deo is a non-profit interchurch organisation that provides, among other things, home care for the elderly and the frail, hospital visits and the provision of wheelchairs and walkers. They are also involved with the weekly cancer clinic in Port Shepstone. Eloise van Niekerk of Pro Deo said the organisation is also now in a position to extend its service to the community with a 24-hour home care service for the elderly, frail, disabled and cancer patients. “This service will only include assistance with basic daily living activities such as grooming, mobilisation, out-of-bed assistance, feeding as well as staying with patients while giving family members some time off,” said Van Niekerk. Patients will be visited and evaluated by a professional nurse to establish their specific needs. This will be done by appointment prior to the placement of care workers. The Ramsgate Lions Club Hall is at Glenmarkie Drive and proceedings start at 11am. For more information, contact Wolfie on 083 271 3036 or Doreen on 083 243 9681. - Supplied.

NSIKAYOLWAZI Community Resource Centre once again partnered with Idwala Carbonates and the Department of Education in

its 10-day, winter school classes for matriculants. The aim of these classes is to ensure they are on track in maths and physical science for their final yearend exams. Bheki Khoza of Insikayolwazi said

this is the third year this programme has been running and they are very grateful for the partnership they have with schools, Idwala, the Department of Education and pupils. In total 144 pupils participated. “This year we had matriculants

from Ingwemabala, Nkonka, Sister Joans, Mgudlwa and Mthusi high schools taking part in the programme. “We also had eight teachers, well equipped and qualified to teach maths and science at matric level,” said Khoza. He said this year’s programme involved principals who promised to continue the relationship with Insikayolwazi even after the programme had finished. “After the completion of the programme, as Insikayolwazi, we will visit schools to assist and work on pupils encouraging them to focus until their final exams,” he said. Glen Koster from Idwala Carbonates said pupils should concentrate on their studies to ensure they get good marks, because Idwala offers bursaries for those who perform well in matric. “We often have bursaries available at the beginning of each year for pupils who have performed well in maths and physical science in matric, therefore we encourage them to work hard and they might be lucky to be the beneficiary of an Idwala bursary.” Koster urged businesses to become part of the programme as Idwala is the only sponsor at this stage. “We call upon other business to be sponsors of this programme in order for it to continue and be successful in the coming years,” he said. Teacher Wonderboy Nxumalo encouraged pupils to form study groups so they can revise together during the programme.

Recovering FEVER 11 alcoholic turns over new leaf south coast

>> Harding man has been clean for give years PRECIOUS GUMEDE >>precious.gumede@media24.com

R

ECOVERING alcoholic, Mthetheleli Langa (30), of Harding seeks assistance from the community, businesses and organisations as he wants to help others fight their addiction. Langa has been clean for five years after being discharged from Sitholimpilo Rehabilitation Centre in Murchison in 2011. Langa is currently working as a teacher and has worked on campaigns with the Department of Social Development giving talks about alcohol abuse. He is a family man with children and a fian-

cée. He said his inspiration to open a centre come from the guidance he received at rehab. “It is my wish to open a rehabilitation centre so I can pass on the messages and teachings to those who need help to fight drug and alcohol addiction. I give talks to many youth on how to stay clean,” he said. Langa said due to his addiction he lost many things. “I started drinking alcohol when I was young - from 1998 until 2011. It was so bad I lost everything I had - my car, money and I nearly lost my job, until one day I realised I needed help.” One of the lessons he learnt was that for one to get help you have to admit you have a problem. “After admitting you need help you realise that the decisions you have been making are not good and it all goes back to your circle of friends. So with all that I decided to change my circle of friends and keep myself busy,” he said. Langa says he has a lot to share, especially with the youth because there is still a chance for them to change their mindset. He said it disturbs him to see young people hooked on alcohol and drugs not realising how bad it becomes. He said he understands that people expect him to be a member of Alcoholics Anonymous, but coming from a rural area he has no access to an AA group. Langa has a certificate from Department of Social Development certifying that his non-profit organisation, Vusizwe Rehabilitation Centre, is registered. All he needs is a small cash injection and donations towards it.

Lion Show weekend line­up THE Lions Club of Port Shepstone will be hosting their 31st annual South Coast Lions Show from 15 to 17 July at the Port Shepstone Country Club. Mix 93.8FM will be broadcasting live from the event on Saturday 16 July and Sunday 17 July. The weekend event will showcase a huge trade expo which involves hundreds of local businesses and entrepreneurs as well as bands in the beer tent, food, arena events, a fun fair with adrenaline rides, a comedy evening and the Lions MTB Classic Cycle Race. In keeping with the spirit of global sport, the Burry Stander Foundation has taken a page out of France’s book as it announced the upcoming South Coast Lions Show Mountain Bike Classic will have a Le Tour de Burry theme. The second edition of the event consists of a 10km race, 25km race and a 45km classic and will be held on Sunday, starting and finishing at Port Shepstone Country Club. Mandie Stander said this is a big opportunity for them as the foundation. “We’ve been given such a fantastic opportunity by the Lions to host the event again this year

and wanted to do something unique. We think this is a fun theme and something that will set the South Coast Lions Show Mountain Bike Classic apart from other races,” said Stander. She said watching people supporting the Tour de France, they thought it would be great if they could create a festival atmosphere. “It would be wonderful if everyone could come on board and we could create a real Le Tour de Burry route on Old St Faiths road. The Tour de France’s main colour is yellow. They have a yellow jersey, green jersey and a white with red polka dot Jersey. We encourage everyone to play along with the theme – water tables to use their creativity, residents to window-dress their gardens and community members to create a cheerful vibe for the riders,” she said There will be a prize for the best water table as voted by the riders. As part of entertainment Mel Miller, Rubber Duc, The Dixie Hillbillies, Rowan Stuart, The Circus Balloon plus plenty of other artists and events will be there. Proceeds from the event will be donated to local charities. Entry is R50 for adults and R25 for pensioners and children under 18. - Supplied.

This follows rumours that communist party members were eliminated in the nomination of candidates process. Mzamo Nyawose of SACP said the rumours are false and have resulted in a division within the alliance. Nyawose said in some KZN areas communist party members were killed as it was believed they were against the ANC. He said the rumours are false and they support the ANC. “AS SACP in South Coast, we had discussions on how we will be launching red forums, which will be the ground force of ensuring we work hand in hand with the ANC.

ing that the ANC wins the elections in its various branches.” They also congratulate Hibiscus Coast Municipality for receiving a clean audit award. “We believe that as the Communist Party, working with the municipality, we can uplift the lives of citizens. The SACP is prepared to fight poverty through co-operatives which we have identified as a solution to hunger. “The co-operatives were part of the training co-ordinated by the municipality and we believe they acquired many skills through the training,” he said. Nyawose said as part of Mandela Day they will be visiting schools conducting lectures about Nelson Mandela. “On 17 and 18 July we will be conducting lectures on Nelson Mandela. On 17 July we will be at Merlewood Secondary and on 18 July we will be at Nkonka High as part our 67 minutes,” said Nyawose.

Political party dismisses bribe allegations THE Inkatha Freedom Party Youth Brigade (IFPYB) is distancing itself from claims of contributing to the National Freedom Party’s failure of missing IEC deadline ahead of elections. Recently, NFP received news that they had missed the deadline to pay fees to the IEC for next month’s elections. IFPYB national chairperson Mkhuleko Hlengwa issued a statement distancing itself from allegations that NFP leaders have been paid money by the IFP not to submit fees. Hlengwa said: “Desperate times often result in desperate people arriving at desperate conclusions and the allegation by NFPYB’s Busi Tshablala is a petty, desperate act to grab headlines. “I therefore challenge her to publicly give chapter and verse evidence to substantiate her allegations or else meet us in court where she will be compelled to clear our name. The IFP is founded on principles of honesty, which Shabalala at some point in her erratic political life subscribed to, and she knows very well that her allegations are a big fat lie. “I really feel sorry for Tshabalala, the NFPYM airhead-in-chief, as she has never been known to be smart and through the stupidity of her baseless statements and allegations, she has removed all doubt.” said Hlengwa “The prevailing political realities in the NFP are most unfortunate, but that should not be a reason for NFP supporters to forgo their democratic right to vote. “The IFP remains their political home which continues to serve the people of South Africa with honesty and integrity. We carry on our shoulders the dreams and hopes of the country and to NFP members, the door is open for them to come and carry that responsibility with us,” said Hlengwa. - Supplied.

Hi Tracy, There is probably little a healthy young dog enjoys more that running unrestricted. The open-mouthed, lolling grins and galloping limbs are a joy to watch. But of course this can end disastrously if the dog is not properly trained to stop on command and come when called. “Freedom” in any cultivated society cannot be absolute. So it is clear that allowing and enjoying such freedom demands that good rules necessarily be obeyed. This is where responsible dog guardianship is so important.

dog having spent months roaming the streets in search of any and every scrap he can find to make up his daily meals, or one with a background in some dreadful puppy mill, will generally be liable to find it difficult to respond to a recall if he is following this inculcated trail. In such cases a lot of understanding, patience and perseverance will be required of the trainer and handler. Dogs do need time to run off leash but they also require training to earn this freedom. It is up to you, the guardian, to do the necessary groundwork if you can, or engage a reputable trainer. You hope to see your children develop skills and manners to the best of their abilities, and so it should be with your dogs. Because many and varied factors are involve with social interactions, we can never guarantee how animals, including humans, will behave in a particular situation, but we do know that a good grounding will favour the best ends. - Susan Henderson© (accredited animal behaviour consultant).

This is in reference to the racist letter by A. Khan (Why is Afrikaans so prominent, 23 June). I also speak all languages of the world except Lat-

ONE of our workers recently passed his driving test and wanted to fetch his driver’s licence card, while I needed to drop off papers at the labour department. So on Thursday, 7 July I drove the employee to the Port Shepstone traffic department at about 2pm and headed to the labour department. There I was told that the system was off-line, but as I only wanted to drop off papers, which were not dependent on a computer, I was prepared to wait for assistance. After a while I was told that the relevant person who could take my forms was not there, but he would be there on Friday. I fetched our employee, who said that the licencing department had closed at 1pm as the staff had to attend a meeting. He did not get his driver’s licence card.

With unbelievable arrogance they are playing “God” in deciding which legally obtained developments will have to be stopped or the loss of property values and of investments and which families are going to be financially ruined through the impact of the incorrect HCM actions. They believe that their position elevates them above the law and makes them untouchable. All citizens with these negative experiences should get organised and stand together so that we can end this unacceptable ignorance of HCM. We need to protect our rights and our investments and/or assets and their future value.

What amazed us both was that at least seven police and law enforcement vehicles were in the convoy. On one afternoon three state department services were not available for the public. Is this what we are paying out taxes for? Dots

HCM doesn’t deserve award THE article about Hibiscus Coast Municipality getting awarded is another slap in the face of any law-abiding citizen on the South Coast (30 June). One of the reasons for winning the award was “excelling in terms of compliance matters”. Being compliant means that HCM should have abided by all valid laws of South Africa. With this understanding this prize was clearly given to the wrong people. Since more than 50 months (this is not a typing error: more than four years) the “prize winner” has been successfully and undisturbed doing the opposite.

G is die opskrif van ‘n nuusverklaring wat die uwe verlede week ontvang het van ‘n nuwe inisiatief om Afrikaans te bevorder. Die veldtog het reeds groot steun elders in die land, en die organiseerders wil Afrikaanssprekendes in KZN betrek, veral omdat Afrikaans in hierdie provinsie nie so prominent is as elders nie. Die volgende is ‘n opsomming van die nuusverklaring, met inligting oor hoe lesers van die Fever wat belangstel, betrokke kan raak. Die veldtog nooi Afrikaanssprekendes om te wys hoe hulle Afrikaans lyk, en om boonop iets in die proses te wen. Veldtog Afrikaans het op 1 Junie afgeskop, en word deur Dagbreektrust gefinansier, onder die voorsitterskap van dr. Theuns Eloff. Daar is ‘n splinternuwe webtuiste, www.afrikaans. com waar Afrikaans gevier en in volheid verken kan word. Die organiseerders sê Afrikaans se horison is so wyd soos elke mens wat in hierdie kontinent geanker is en op afrikaans.com is daar plek vir almal.

Afrikaans kry ’n holte vir haar voet Die versoek is: “Kom wys ons hoe lyk jou Afrikaans en gesels saam.” Veldtog Afrikaans het ontstaan uit ‘n gedeelde passie vir Afrikaans wat nou lewe gee aan ‘n opwindende bewusmakingsveldtog wat Afrikaans as handelsmerk sal vestig en bevorder en die taal se beeld op ‘n positiewe wyse sal uitbou. Die enjin van die inisiatief is ‘n mediaveldtog deur middel van buitelugborde, asook redaksionele en advertensieblootstelling op televisie en radio en in die drukmedia. Die kernboodskap van die advertensieveldtog is - hoe lyk jóú Afrikaans? Die idee is om mense se belangstelling te prikkel en benewens Afrikaanssprekendes, alle Suid-Afrikaners te nooi om Afrikaans in as taal in sy volheid te vier en te verken. Die webtuiste, www.afrikaans.com, is ontwikkel om blootstelling te gee aan al die projekte waarby die veldtog aansluiting vind. Afrikaans.com is ‘n wegspringplek vir alles Afrikaans. Dis ‘n plek waar mense hulle wortels kan vind, hulle kan uitleef en uitdruk. Die organiseerders nooi Afrikaanssprekendes “saam op ‘n avontuurtog deur die wye landskap van ‘n taal met

‘n geskiedenis wat lees soos ‘n Deon Meyer-boek, ‘n hede so oproerig en vernuwend soos ‘n NP van Wyk Louwgedig en ‘n toekoms so opwindend soos die ritme van ‘n Hemelbesemtong. Dis vir dié wat die taal lief het en wat ‘n toekoms vir hierdie hartstaal wil bou of sommer net die glimlag agter elke woord wil geniet en wil saamgesels.” Deel van Veldtog Afrikaans is die bekendstelling van ambassadeurs vir Afrikaans - mense wat deur ‘n verskeidenheid van projekte en inisiatiewe ‘n verskil maak. Afrikaans.com hou Afrikaanssprekendes op die hoogte en skep ‘n lekker lewendige netwerk waarby hulle kan inskakel. Veldtog Afrikaans vra: “Wat roer jou en wat raak jou? Hoe voel jou Afrikaans? Hoe proe of ruik jou Afrikaans?

Hoe klink jou Afrikaans en hoe leef jy Afrikaans? Almal se Afrikaans lyk anders. Ons leef, praat en ervaar Afrikaans verskillend. Op Afrikaans.com kan jy self ‘n bietjie kom spog, inspireer of verras – neem deel aan die gesprek en kompetisie en wen lekker pryse – jy kan tot R10 000 wen - of loer sommer net in en kyk hoe ander hulle ding doen in Afrikaans.”

Wouter se Watergat

Binnepret

WOUTER WILLEMSE DIT was rêrig aangenaam om die afgelope week ou bekendes te sien. Van die gereelde Julie-besoekers aan die Suidkus het verskeie van hulle weer hul ‘pelgrimstog’ ( soos Wallie Wapenaar van Randburg dit noem ) na die Watergat aangepak, en dit was bly weersiens. Feitlik almal van hulle sê hulle hou van die Watergat om verskeie redes, buiten ons bekende hamburgers en vroulief se Kerrie en rys, en die belangrikste rede is die taalfaktor. In dié sin dat ons met die intrapslag Afrikaans met besoekers praat, en eers na Engels toe oorslaan wanneer dit duidelik is die besoekers verstaan nie so mooi nie. Dis egter verbasend hoe min ons Engels moet praat, wat weereens bewys by verre die meerderheid besoekers aan die Suidkus is Afrikaanssprekend. Ek het baie simpatie met ons besoekers wat meen die plaaslike toerisme-owerheid doen te min om Afrikaanssprekendes se taal te erken. Verblyfplekke en die toerismemense plaas advertensies in Afrikaanse koerante elders in die land, maar wanneer besoekers reageer en hierheen kom, sukkel hulle om in Afrikaans bedien te word. Selfs plaaslike Afrikaanssprekende besigheidsmense praat eerste Engels met besoekers, en wanneer die besoeker dan agterkom die aksent is Afrikaans, word Afrikaans gepraat. Moet my nie verkeerd verstaan nie. Ek is nie ‘n “taalbul” soos van ouds nie. Ek sal nooit ‘n vloermoer gooi soos sommiges wanneer hulle nie in Afrikaans bedien word nie, geensins nie, maar voel werklik daar is te veel blanke Engelssprekendes van baie geslagte in KZN wat geen

JY stap so in die winkelsentrum verby ‘n vrou en skielik tref daardie geur van parfuum jou. Dis duidelik dat die dame en haar parfuum mekaar gevind het. Die geur bly jou by. ‘n Ander keer ry jy met jou kar verby ‘n area en die reuk van die dood ontmoet jou. Êrens het die rioolstelsel verstop. Jy probeer die reuk so gou moontlik vergeet. Dikwels is dit ook die ervaring wat jy met mense het. Die ontmoeting met die een persoon laat jou met ‘n gevoel van behae. Die ander ontmoeting laat jou voel of jy ‘n lang stort moet gaan neem. Paulus skryf in 2 Korintiërs 2:15 dat God deur Sy kerk die kennis van Christus oral versprei soos ‘n aangename geur. Die geur van Christus kleef aan Sy mense, want hulle leef in Sy teenwoordigheid.

poging ooit aangewend het om Afrikaans onder die knie te kry nie. Wanneer daar ‘n groep van sê-nou-maar ses mense vergader, en een is nie gemaklik in Afrikaans nie, moet almal Engels praat ter wille van die een. Nog iets waaroor ek sterk voel wat Afrikaans betref, is dat mense wat die taal praat of skryf, minstens moet probeer om dit so korrek moontlik doen. Ek besef ek is somtyds self skuldig daaraan, maar die vet weet, ek probeer minstens. Toegegee, ‘n taal ontwikkel deur die jare en daar is verskeie “dialekte”, soos bv. Kaaps met sy besonderse eienskappe. Waarvan ek praat is die klakkelose vertaling van Engelse uitdrukkings en woorde in Afrikaans, maw. anglisismes. Luister na veral RSG se omroepers, verslaggewers en nuusskrywers. In een nuusbulletin vandeesweek het ek gehoor “hy het sy gedagte opgemaak”, pleks van “besluit”, “dag een” op Wimbledon pleks van “tweede dag”, “hy het die gebou opgeblaas”, pleks van “in die lug laat spring”, en “familie” pleks van “gesin”. Die meeste van vandag se Afrikaanse omroepers en “stemkunstenaars” is ver benede die peil van hul voorgangers, waarskynlik omdat middelmatigheid deesdae aanvaar word. Mense soos Jan Schutte, Pieter de Bruin, die twee Nics, (Swanepoel en De Jager), Johan de Bruyn en natuurlik Riaan Cruywagen het uitmuntende standaarde gestel waarna vandag slegs gestreef kan word. Nietemin, genoeg van ‘n ou man, wat soms self skuldig is aan bogenoemde, se geteem. Ons glimlag van die week kom van Jana Potgieter van Ficksburg - ‘n blondine verklaar aan haar maat: “My rok is nou so kort hy sit heel bokant my vuurmaakplek.”

Hulle praat met Hom in gebed en lees Sy Woord. Meer as dit, hulle leef Sy Woord uit. Watter invloed oefen jy en ek as gelowiges uit op die mense met wie ons in aanraking kom? Onthou hulle ons om die regte of verkeerde redes? Onthou hulle hoe ons smaak aan die geselskap gegee het of onthou hulle ons negatiwiteit? Ons beïnvloed natuurlik nie net mekaar nie, maar ook die gemeenskap waarbinne ons lewe. Dit kan dalk die skool wees waar jy leer werk, of die kompleks waar jy woon, of dalk die sportklub en ja ook die kerk. Daar gaan ‘n geur of ‘n reuk van elke mens af uit. Ons kan help opbou of afbreek deur die invloed wat ons elkeen op ons eie unieke terrein van die lewe uitoefen. Ons kan natuurlik deur onbetrokke by ons gemeenskap te wees, ook ‘n slegte invloed uitoefen. Paulus sê dat ons alleen ander positief kan beïnvloed vanuit ons verhouding met Christus Jesus. Die Heilige Gees maak ons ‘n aangename geur vir Christus. Is dit ook waar van jou lewe?

‘People are not doing what our fallen hero would have loved us to do in his memory. The old ways of celebrating this day should be brought back. In the beginning this day had so much value, now that he is no more, peo­ ple tend to celebrate it for their own gain and recognition.’

Rita Kanhay

‘There is a lot more to be done in the concept of doing something good in the memory of Mandela. The context of this day has been lost. Before the day was about bringing people together, but I don’t think this is happening nowadays.’

NELSON MANDELA DAY MAKE EVERY DAY

HOW will you spend 67 minutes of your time on Monday, Mandela Day? The global initiative aims not only to honour Madiba’s legacy, but to inspire change. People are encouraged to spend 67 minutes of the day doing good for the less fortunate. The lower South Coast has numerous charities that one can choose from to support on this day. Give a Child a Family in Margate cares for over 100 orphaned and vulnerable children a year, including babies as young as three days. “We would like to appeal to South Coasters to support us this Mandela Day with donations of baby and children’s toiletries, such as nappies, baby lotion, wet wipes, shampoo, toothpaste, soap and any non-perishable food items,” said Samantha Podmore, mananger of resource development at the organisation. Rice, samp, cereals, pasta or tinned goods are welcome. Secure donations can also be made through the website www.gcf.org.za The Cansa office in Port Shepstone is looking for a sponsor to assist with making mobile screenings in an area of a sponsors choice. “We would love to have food parcels donated for our patients who are unable to get an income due to illnesses or being care-givers. We currently feed five patients, but would like to increase that number,” said Sesethu Senene, community mobiliser. Nappies, meal replacements such as Ensure, Futurelife or Pedisure are also welcome. “If someone is willing to reach for the stars, we would love to have a car, the size of an Avanza so we can transport patients from the lower South Coast to hospitals in Durban for treatment, instead of having to take public transport or missing treatment all together due to transport issues,” she said. Di van Dyk, CEO of South Coast Hospice said the organisation would appreciate frozen soups for the in-patient unit and jerseys for children. “A wall in the building needs cleaning and painting. The painting can be decorative or plain. We also need someone to assist with cleaning in our garage, which is used as a clinic once a month,” said Van Dyk. Hospice would also like to have a garden for Madiba, people to assist with working in the charity shops and donation of goods, which can be sold.

Dealing with rats and mice at home I

T is winter, which means that, like many us, rats and mice are looking for somewhere warm and cosy to spend their days. For property owners, this means an increased likelihood of rodents trying to make their way inside your house to set up home. These nocturnal creatures are most active between dusk and dawn, and usually hide from humans during the day. It is often easier to spot the signs of a rodent problem than the actual pests themselves, so it’s important to know what to look for. Are you worried you may have unwanted rodent guests lurking in your home? Here are tips on how to spot and get rid of rodents. Signs of a rodent problem Droppings Rodents do 50 to 80 droppings a night, small and dark (approximately 3-8 mm in length), scattered randomly. Look for droppings particularly along walls, in cupboards or under sinks. Grease marks Grease marks and smudges are caused by mouse fur constantly brushing against walls, floors and skirtings on regular routes. You may find dark smears around holes or around corners too. Urine pillars With heavy infestations, body grease combined with dirt and urine tend to build up into small mounds that are up to 4cm high and 1cm wide. Scratching noises People often report hearing unusual scratching noises during the night when mice are most active. Listen for noises between partition walls, under floorboards, in false ceilings, base-

ments and lofts. Nests Mice use easy to shred materials such as newspaper and fabrics, together with other soft materials to line their nest. Check lofts, suspended ceilings, cavity walls, under floorboards, behind fridges, under stoves and in airing cupboards for mice activity. Nests will often contain young mice. Tracks Rodent tracks and tail marks can show up in dusty environments such as unused lofts and basements. To check for activity, sprinkle flour, talcum powder or china clay and check for fresh tracks the next day. Strong smell Mice urinate frequently and the urine has a strong ammonia-like smell. The smell may be strongest near the main site of activity or in enclosed spaces. This smell can linger for a long time even after an infestation has been removed. If you are going to try and catch a mouse, you need to know the best bait to use. In most cases, when people think of mice, they think of cheese, but did you know that mice aren’t really that passionate about cheese? That’s not to say they won’t eat it, just that they won’t go out of their way to snack on it. Mice do, however, love peanut butter, so if you are planning to try your hand at some DIY mouse control, peanut butter would be your best bet to lure them into a homemade trap. How to make a humane DIY mouse trap • Take an empty toilet or paper towel roll and place a teaspoon of peanut butter at one of its ends. • Place the roll on the edge of a sur-

face, with the peanut butter end hanging off the edge. • Below the roll, place an empty plastic container with the lid nearby. • Wait for the mouse to take the bait. • When the mouse enters the empty roll to help himself to the peanut butter, its body weight will cause the roll to tip over and fall into the plastic container. When this has happened, place the lid on the container and set the mouse free in a safe area away from your home.

TERMITE activity is a huge and costly problem for homeowners, and should be prevented if at all possible. This is according to Mostert Pest Control, who say there are some things that homeowners are doing, unaware that they are attracting termites to their homes. Mostert Pest Control lists the following ways you could be unintentionally attracting termites to your home: Firewood and woodpiles Many homeowners keep firewood stacked against their home or

on the stoep for easy access. However, doing so can draw termites toward the home and provide a point of entry. Mostert Pest Control recommends keeping firewood and woodpiles at least 6m away from the home, and, if possible, store wood raised at least 25cm from the ground. Improper drainage It’s no one’s favourite chore, but cleaning the gutters is also a necessary part of termite prevention. Termites are attracted to moisture and clogged gutters can cause water to pool and make insulation vulnerable to termites. Diverting rainwater away from the foundation with down-spout extenders and splash blocks will also prevent water from pooling and attracting termites. Excess wood

Many people are guilty of leaving stumps and dead trees in their yards. However, any rotting wood material can serve as termite fuel, and eventually result in termites entering your home. Mulch Mulch is frequently used near the home and against its foundation. However, mulch can provide as a source of food for termites and

Depending on the type of species, a female rat can have as many as eight to 12 offspring per litter, and up to seven litters per year. A reputable pest control company will only use rodenticides as a last course of action, and only after food, harbourage and access have been denied. They will also take into account additional factors such as young children, pets and other wildlife in the area before applying treatment. – Supplied.

The Mercedes­Benz C350e sedan.

Efficiency, dynamism and comfort – the best of three worlds F

OLLOWING its premiere in the S-Class, Mercedes-Benz is now offering its most advanced hybrid technology in the C-Class. The dynamism and efficiency of the C350e sedan makes it a convincing proposition in its segment. With a range of 31 kilometres in purely electric mode, local emission-free driving is now a reality. Its four-cylinder petrol engine, in conjunction with a powerful electric motor, gives it a total system output of 205 kW and torque of 600 Nm. The new C350e delivers the performance of a sports car and yet offers certified consumption figures of just 2.1 litres of fuel per 100 kilometres. This corresponds to CO2 emissions of 65 grams per kilometre. The C350e is equipped as standard with AIRMATIC air suspension plus a Pre-Entry Climate Control system that can be controlled via the internet, adding up to a truly exceptional level of driving and climate comfort. A first for the Mercedes-Benz East London plant is the manufacture of a C-Class with the latest PLUG-IN-HYBRID technology for both local and export markets.

Isuzu KB X­ Rider offers great value ISUZU, the bakkie specialists, have added a new special value model to their light commercial vehicle range ­ the KB X­Rider based on the 250 HO Hi­Rider 4x2 in ex­ tended and double cab body styles. The newcomer can be readily identified by a number of visual cues such as stylish black diamond­cut 18­inch alloys and black tubular side steps, but some less obvious features are what marks this special edition KB as a special kind of workhorse. The X­Rider boasts an uprated towbar with a 2.1­tonne braked trailer capacity, LED daytime running lights and remote keyless entry. Owners will also get the luxury of

“The successful manufacture of the C350e sedan at our award winning Mercedes-Benz East London plant to exacting world-class standards, is another milestone in our illustrious 68year history of engineering excellence,” says Arno van der Merwe, CEO Mercedes-Benz South Africa and executive director manufacturing. The East London plant celebrated a record milestone of one-million vehicles produced in May 2015 and continues to receive a number of accolades and awards. Logistics division’s project management specialist, Liebrecht Otto, confirmed that all employees -and contractors involved with the manufacture of these hybrid units were specifically trained to safely work with high voltage components. “Instructors from TÜV SÜD, an international service corporation focusing on consulting, testing, certification and training, were brought in to the plant to ensure that we met the highest international safety standards. We have now set the benchmark in South Africa for safety, as we do for quality. From a facility perspective, to accommodate some of the additional work

content, we installed a new Lifter and High Station in the Assembly area. Additionally, we installed a manipulator on the trim line to aid the operator in securing the new battery into the vehicle,” added Otto. Thanks to the combination of combustion engine and electric drive, hybrid drive systems deliver impressively low consumption, but with high performance. The electric motor is able to replace or support the combustion engine in situations where the combustion engine does not perform quite so well, and makes practical use of energy generated while braking by converting it into electric energy and storing it. In the new Mercedes-Benz C350e, this hybrid drive concept is combined for the first time with an efficient fourcylinder petrol engine. From a displacement of just under two litres, it produces 155 kW and maximum torque of 350 Nm. Its direct injection system with spray-guided combustion uses electronically precise controlled multiple injection and fast multi-spark ignition to deliver outstanding performance coupled with high efficiency and exemplary emis-

leather seats, with the X­Rider logo em­ broidered on the front headrests. The leather­trimmed steering wheel, which is equipped with a full array of satel­ lite control, stands out thanks to the red stitching and Isuzu badge in its centre. Vice president of vehicle sales, service, and marketing at General Motors South Af­ rica, Brian Olson said: “Our aim with the X­Rider is to offer real value and individuali­ ty in a brand which is well known for tough­ ness, reliability and comfort. “The X­Rider follows on the success of special edition models of the past, such as the Midnite and Serengeti. The X­Rider con­ tinues the tradition but at a lower price point, providing added exclusivity and ex­ ceptional value for money.” Further detail enhancements are red stitching on the gearlever gaiter, steering wheel and the seats. Piano Black inserts are used on the doors (with a bold red ‘X’ mo­ tif), with the same high­gloss finish used to

highlight air conditioning vents, the sound system, and the gearshift console. All X­rider derivatives will be powered by the new, 100 kW/320Nm Nm high­output version of Isuzu’s proven 2.5­litre common rail direct injection turbodiesel, an engine which has been a stalwart of the KB range since a September 2015 facelift. The X­Rider will be available at Isuzu dealerships from the first week of July. The X­Rider is offered in a trio of classy colours ­ Summit White, Switchblade Silver or Maranello Red – and the full array of changes applicable to the exterior include: ∙ Black front bumper guard ∙ Light Emitting Diode (LED) daytime running lights ∙ Wheel caps with red Isuzu branding ∙ Black tubular side steps ∙ Black sports bar ∙ Blacked­out B­pillar ∙ X­Rider body decals ∙ 255/60 all­terrain rubber on 18­inch

sions. The high overall system output and intelligent engine management give the car the dynamic performance of a nimble sports car. And it combines this with the ride comfort of a premium sedan, along with fuel consumption and environmental compatibility at a level that, until not all that long ago, would not even have been expected of many small cars. This sedan sprints from zero to 100 km/h in 5.9 seconds and reaches a top speed of 250 km/h in conjunction with certified fuel consumption of 2.1 litres per 100 kilometres. This corresponds to CO2 emissions of 65 grams per kilometre. The C 350 e offers the possibility of driving up to 31 kilometres in all-electric mode, and completely free of CO2 emissions locally – for example in the city. One new feature of the C350e is the so-called haptic accelerator pedal, which helps to reduce fuel consumption and thus also exhaust emissions. It provides two types of information: If, when driving in electric mode, the driver’s foot meets a point of resistance on the accelerator pedal, this is an indication that maximum electric

performance is being delivered. If the driver continues to depress the accelerator beyond this resistance point, the combustion engine will kick in. A double impulse from the ECO Assist function signals that the driver should remove their foot from the accelerator pedal in order to switch off the combustion engine and decouple it from the drive train. Assuming that the driver does what the double impulse suggests, the intelligent engine management system of the C 350 e will vary the deceleration mode between unpowered (sailing) and recuperation, using data from the car’s radar systems as its basis. The order book for the MercedesBenz C350e sedan is open at dealerships throughout Southern Africa and delivery of customer vehicles commences August 2016. As with all Mercedes-Benz passenger cars, the C 350 e comes standard with a class-leading six-year/100 000km PremiumDrive maintenance plan. The C350e is exempt from CO2 emission tax as emission levels amount to frugal levels of 65 g/km and retails at R804 900. - Supplied.

HE new C-Class Cabriolet is now available at Mercedes-Benz dealers, who say this cabrio represents the attractive entry level into the family of Mercedes-Benz convertibles at R699 900.

Original vs generic car parts LES McMaster, chairperson of the Motor Industry Workshop Association (MIWA), says motorists should educate themselves about car parts as these can end up costing a fortune if they don’t know of better-value alternatives to original equipment manufacturer (OEM), or genuine parts. “Many motorists are duped into believing their vehicle should have nothing less than OEM or genuine parts. We’ve seen recent adverts on television which try to reinforce this myth, but the truth is, in some cases, aftermarket parts are an improvement on OEM parts.” According to MIWA, market research indicates that the quality of aftermarket parts has increased over the past decade, raising confidence among workshop owners, service technicians and motorists alike. “Aftermarket parts are a good option, especially if your car is three to four years old. Of course, there are inferior parts out there, but by sticking with brands recommended by a reputable, accredited workshop, you can get the same performance out of aftermarket parts versus OEM and genuine parts, at a lower cost,” says McMaster. The reason aftermarket parts often outperform OEM parts, he explains, is that aftermarket companies analyse weaknesses in OEM parts and through a process of reverse engineering, they are able to eradicate weaknesses and flaws. Another plus for motorists is that there are many companies that make aftermarket parts – more variety means a better price range for the independent workshop owner when sourcing parts. - Supplied.

The Cabriolet’s fully automatic fabric soft top can be opened and closed in 20 seconds at speeds of up to 50km/h. The Aircap electric draught stop system and the Airscarf neck-level

Foundation awards pageant winners >> ‘Foundation is about development, empowerment, mentorship’ PRECIOUS GUMEDE >>precious.gumede@media24.com

P

HUMLANIM Foundation held its prize giving ceremony at the Margate Hotel last Friday, where the foundation awarded the Mr and Miss Gamalakhe 2016 winners. The awards were presented by the former Miss Gamalakhe, Sthobile Hlophe, who reminded the winners what it means to be crowned Mr and Miss Gamalakhe. She emphasised that the pageant is a community project to instil and teach

a culture of responsibility among the youth, Phumlani Mzobe, foundation founder, said as part of the prizes the winners were given the opportunity of doing community service and also going for a photo shoot and he thanks the prize sponsors. Mzobe said the foundation is a vehicle that can be used by young people to make an impact in their community. “The foundation is about development, empowerment, grooming and mentorship.” Last year the foundation had a

problem when a prize sponsor pulled out at the last minute and one winner never received their prize. “I am grateful of this year’s prize sponsors as everything went smoothly. Last year we had a problem with one of the sponsors, who promised to sponsor a cellphone, but pulled out at the last minute,” said Mzobe. Mzobe congratulated the winners and wished them all the best for the future.

Celebrating success at ski­boat festival PHOTO: SUPPLIED

The Shelly Beach Ski Boat Festival was a success, once again.

>> Top lady was Megan Du Plessis

K

EEN anglers from all over the country once again made the journey to Shelly Beach Ski Boat Club to participate in the premier game-fishing tournament, Shelly Beach Ski Boat Festival, held from the 29 June to the 2 July. Due to changes in the major sponsors, the traditional first prize of a Mallards ski boat with two Mercury motors was replaced by a cash prize of R100 000 for the overall heaviest game fish. The Ski Boat Club committee also introduced a new “Calcutta” or “Skins” system, led by PJ Botha, which generated R60 000 in cash prizes on the registration evening with 30 boats competing for a daily prize of R15 000 for the heaviest game fish per day. Fishing was slow on the first day with very few reports of decent fish caught. It was a pleasant surprise for the large crowd gathered in the tent at the weigh station on day one when

a very respectable 32.5kg Yellowfin Tuna came to the scales caught by Roy Jackson on the boat “Thunderchild” off Umkomaas. Day two produced better results with fish brought to the scales from Port Edward right through to Durban. Local anglers Carl Gutzeit and Patrick Fenton brought two Yellowfin Tuna in weighing 20kg and 25.7kg respectively caught near Hibberdene. However the day belonged to the anglers fishing aboard “Come Tomoro” fishing out of Hibberdene. Local anglers Alan “Moo” Fraser and Josh Rodwell arrived at the scales with a crate filled with large Amberjack and had the crowd anxious to see their weights. The three fish were all impressive but the biggest two weighed in at 23,7kg and a massive 34.8kg respectively handing Alan Fraser the overall lead. At the scales on day three, there were very few fish weighed but rumours soon spread about a big Yel-

lowfin coming in from Port Edward which built the excitement for the crowd. The crew of “Master Tom” arrived at the scales with a very impressive Yellowfin Tuna that had everyone guessing if it would topple the 34.8kg amberjack for top place. Eventually the tuna weighed in at 31.3kg securing Shaun Posthumus third place overall. On day four gale-force winds and rough seas prevented boats launching for the last day of the competition and this proved to be the case as no fish were brought to scales on the last day. Prize giving went well on a chilly evening in the tent with overall placings going to Alan Fraser (R100 000 cash), Roy Jackson (second overall) and Shaun Posthumus (third overall). The “Calcutta” prizes went to “Master Tom” for days one and three and “Bluetooth” for day two. Notable junior placings were the top three juniors namely Cameron Palmer (first), Pietie Bodenstein (second) and Reydon Basson (third) all Shelly Beach anglers. Another great result was the top lady, taken by Megan Du Plessis, another local junior angler. - Supplied.

‘War on the shore’ coming up WILD Coast Sun is planning another thrilling boxing tournament this month as part of the War on the Shore series. War on the Shore 4 takes place on 29 July and promises to be spectacular. David Rajuli will take on Bulelani Rooibaart over six rounds in the Junior Lightweight division. Rajuli recently lost a disputed decision against Sydney Maluleka for the latter’s IBF Continental Africa Featherweight title. Heavyweght Ruann “the Giant King” Visser takes on the extremely dangerous former MMA Champion, Maitre “Knife” Matrotina. Visser just recently returned from Austria where he was one of the selected sparring partners for Wlademir Klitsckho in preparing for his upcoming rematch with Tyson Fury. Visser stopped DRC’s Dieu Merci

Crowd favourites Brandon Naude (Lightweight), Mfundisi Ngema (Junior Featherweight), Marcel Botha (Middleweight) and Herman Potgieter (Junior Heavyweight) are also on the bill. Herman Potgieter, an accountant by trade will have to pull out all the stops against the well known Yomi Shokumbe whom is known as a explosive fighter and can make any boxer looks bad in front of him. Potgieter, already scheduled against Jaden Matthew in an official SA title eliminator, will use this bout against Shokumbe as a stepping stone closer to meeting reigning SA champion, Kevin Lerena. - Supplied.

‘Play sport, get healthy’ ­ Major­General U

GU Cluster Commander, Major-General Agnes Nxamagele has encouraged members within the Cluster to participate in sport with the aim of being healthy. This comes after Captain Vinesh Maharaj of Ugu Cluster (Port Shepstone) took part in the SAPS National Tennis Championships in Bloemfontein from 27 June to 1 July.

Nxamagele said regular exercise is healthy for the mind. “A healthy body equals a healthy mind. Regular exercise improves allround fitness and improves the body’s ability to resist illness and disease. A positive spin-off of this is that members’ lives are improved and the sick leave rate drops.” Maharaj was selected for the KZN

provincial team for this event. Tennis players from the nine provinces and SAPS head office played singles, double and mixed doubles. The KZN team bagged one gold for doubles and two bronze for single females and single males. Management and Ugu Cluster members congratulate the team for their wins. - Supplied.
