A number of reasons to celebrate 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.

Rolene Strauss was crowned Miss World at the weekend and now features in a long list of remarka ble women who continue to make a difference to the countries they live in and the world. South Africans also took time through out the year to remember Nelson Mandela and do their bit to fulfill his legacy. It’s been a year since his death and many ques tioned the stability and patriotism of South Afri cans. The good news is, it seems as if communities are now more united than ever. Many believe his spirit still lives on calling it a sprinkling of ‘Madiba magic’. Clearly South Africans will continue to make great strides despite the negative news that some times comes to the fore. The Fever would like to wish all our fantastic cli ents and readers a wonderfully happy festive sea son and here’s to welcoming 2015 in style.

This year South Africans voted hoping for the best – many are now glued to the parliament ses sion coverage because you never know what to ex pect. In 2015 we will be joining the queues for the byelections and once again, hoping for positive change.

Water supply scheme on track MAKHOSANDILE ZULU

He said no rainfall was received in the inland catchment area during the rains of the weekend of 7 May meaning areas within iLembe did not benefit and are still severely affected by the drought. Harichunder said the scheme is not labour intensive, estimating that 15 people will be employed on the scheme once it is complete. “The scheme was not intended to be labour intensive in the first place. We will employ some local people, but also highly skilled operators will be required,” he said. He said a meeting has been held with locals to clarify that the main purpose of the scheme is to supply water. Project manager Krish Govender said: “Due to the severe drought conditions at the moment we have actually earmarked this as a drought relief project currently in order to take water all the way up to Ballito as opposed to KwaDukuza which was initially planned.”
EMBERS of the media were invited to a tour of the Lower Thukela Bulk Water Supply Scheme last Thursday to view and report on the progress that has been made on the project. Once complete, the project will have a water treatment works providing 55 mega-litres (Ml) of water per day, a weir abstraction works, a rising main reservoir and 30km of gravity pipeline. The scheme was deemed necessary to ensure the iLembe District Municipality met its increasing supply demands brought on by the growth of the district. The Department of Water and Sanitation found that the scheme would be less costly, would have the least impact on the environment and would be the quickest to implement out of two options that had been identified. Phase One of the project will supply 55 Ml of water per day to all the areas between Tugela Village and Groutville. Phase Two of the project will supply water to Mandeni and Ballito.

Rapist gets 25 years imprisonment C
ONVICTED rapist Thulani Nzama (41) was sentenced to 25 years imprisonment on Thursday 12 May, at the KwaDukuza Regional Court for raping a 24-year-old woman in 2014. KZN SAPS spokesperson Major Thulani Zwane said the victim was attacked and raped on 3 May 2014. “At around 1pm the victim was on
her way home when she was approached by the accused who offered her a job. Whilst they were walking the accused attacked the victim, dragged her into the bushes and raped her. He took her cellphone and fled the scene. She screamed for help and members of the community came to her rescue,” he said. Zwane said people who had come to help the victim then searched the area until the accused was apprehended. He said police were called to the scene and upon arrival the accused was handed over and was

KZN SAPS spokesperson Major Shooz Magudulela said following the burning of three trucks during the protests on Friday evening a case of malicious damage to property was opened at KwaDukuza police station.

other vehicles being attacked. Ntshawini ward councillor Nevas Hlatshwayo said residents decided to protest because many accidents have occurred in that area, injuring people, and residents believe speed humps would avert more accidents. He condemned the burning of the trucks, and, or, the burning of other public structures as this negatively impacts on people’s lives. He said it is necessary that leadership meet with community members to discuss their concerns and that these should be escalated to the provincial Department of
spokesperson Lucky Makhathini said the protests were over a SMS that was circulated among residents which falsely claimed that a nominee to contest this year’s local government election had been officially made a candidate. He said the cellphone number that circulated the SMS is no longer in use. Makhathini said the ANC had formed various teams which were deployed on Monday to areas where protests relating to political matters had erupted. “Once these teams have met the various communities they will report back to the REC [Regional Executive Committee],” he said. He said these teams would be deployed to areas such as Melville, Mgigimbe, where protests broke out on Monday morning, Madundube and other areas.

PROTEST action broke out in Melville on Monday morning which resulted in community members blocking the R102 with stones and burning tyres. According to KZN SAPS spokesperson, Major Shooz Magudulela, this demonstration follows one that occurred last Wednesday in the same area in which an estimated 100 people blocked the R102 over a lack of service delivery. He said no arrests were made in both incidents and that on both days of protesting police remained on the scene to monitor the situation. Melville (Ward 24) councillor Thokozani Msweli said the protests were about issues pertaining to the ANC and that the organisation should comment on the matter. ANC Greater KwaDukuza Region

He made various court appearances until he was sentenced,” he said. KZN SAPS Commissioner, Lieutenant General Mmamonnye Ngobeni praised the KwaDukuza FCS for their dedication in solving the case and sending the rapist to prison. “We welcome the sentence and we hope that it will send a strong message to other would be rapists who target our vulnerable women and children,” she said.

He said no injuries to persons or damage to property was reported and that later in the day calm had been restored in the area. Nkobongo (Ward 8) councillor Themba Ntuli said according to what he had been told the protest was about the ANC’s nomination process for a candidate to stand for elections this year. He said the party’s nominees had not been introduced to the com munity and since elec tions are drawing nearer this agitated residents. Speaking to the Weekly on Monday, he said calm had been re stored in the area and that he had been in formed that a public meeting is scheduled for Sunday, 22 May 50m from the newly tarred road 2016. ANC Greater KwaD ukuza Region spokes person Lucky Makhathi ni said in light of the pro tests that have ensued from political issues, the region’s top brass had formed various teams sent out to these affected areas with a purpose of engaging Taxis available from Boxer Superstore with locals and finding a solution.

Mohanlal ‘Johnny’ Ramhith
Deputy minister visits school
M
OHANLAL ‘Johnny’ Ramhith, the former building inspector in the KwaDukuza Municipality, died last Thursday night in hospital after a short illness aged 78. Uncle Johnny, as he was popularly known by both young and old, was born in New Guelderland on 26 January 1938 and attended the New Guelderland Government-Aided Primary School up to standard six. He proceeded to the Stanger Indian High School (now Stanger Secondary) where he matriculated in 1959. He commenced work at the Borough of Stanger (KwaDukuza Municipality) in 1960 as a clerk and remained there in various positions until being boarded off on medical grounds in 1992 with a period of continuous service for 33 years. He served as building/drainage inspector for 19 years. After his retirement he served various religious organisations, education committees, cricket clubs and associations, the
MAKHOSANDILE ZULU JYOTHI LALDAS DEPUTY Minister of Environmental Affairs Barbara Thomson visited Bongimfundo Primary School recently. The purpose of her visit was to see how pupils use the computer room and the permaculture project that commenced early in April. Speaking to the pupils Thomson said: “Earth is our only environment and we all have to play our part in taking care of it. We all have to get into the habit of reducing, recycling and reusing our waste products. Even electrical items are recycled.” She was accompanied by the MEC of agriculture Cyril Xaba and the director Allan Werth of SIMS Recycling Solution. The deputy minister assured the pupils that the relevant agricultural department will assist the school in harvesting rain water by providing more water tanks and other items that the school will need to progress in its permaculture project. Commenting on the school, she complimented the principal and staff for the cleanliness and the discipline of the pupils. Principal Pitamber Ramgathi thanked the deputy minister and all other officials both from national and provincial government saying: “It is an honour and privilege for our school to be visited by you. We acknowledge your presence and generosity towards our school.”

and 2000s. He followed cricket avidly although he did not play the game actively and was a very loyal supporter of the Proteas. In the last few years of his life he spent time fishing, being involved with LOTARE as its treasurer and serving on the executive and attending satsang regularly at the Sri Ram Mandir despite his ill-health. At the time of his death, he was still operating a drawing office at home and was registered with the South African Council for the Architectural Profession. Furthermore, he was a consultant in the building and town planning fields. According to close friend Jayce Singh, Ramhith was a remarkable man who led a full life. “He had so much more to offer to the community of KwaDukuza of which he was an integral component. His death leaves not only a void in his family, but also amongst his friends and the people of this town. Go well Uncle Johnny, hamba kahle! You will be sorely missed.” He is survived by his wife Dhanwanthee, son Ashwin, daughter Jenny, grandson Mishvir, son-in-law Vinesh, daughter-inlaw Mogie, thre sisters, and a host of cousins, nieces and nephews.
steering committee would be consulted regularly about the progress of the housing project. Zulu condemn people who steal material from sites established for such projects as they slow down the project and ultimately affect the quality of the work being done. The mayor said in addition to the housing project, construction of a road from Mbizimbelwe to Phungula, and from Bendle to Ward 9 would commence in June and that the contractor uQombothi Development had been awarded the
job. He said as an effort to alleviate poverty in the area, people employed in the Community Works Programme would increase from 22 when 32 more are recruited, adding that this would be done in consultation with the ward councillor. In closing, Zulu urged Ward 1 residents to take part in sporting activities, especially young people so that they could refrain from drug and substance abuse and criminal activity.

The Struggle of Unemployment SINETHEMBA MZIMELA BETWEEN 2008 and the first quarter of 2015 youth unemployment deteriorated and more young people have given up looking for work. Statistics SA’s youth labour market reports reflected that, of the approxi-
mately 19.7-million working-age youth (15 to 34 years), 9.8-million were not economically active, 6.2-million were employed, and 3.6-million were unemployed. The "not economically active" include discouraged work-seekers, full-time students, and homemakers.
Proposed shopping mall and civic centre THE KwaDukuza Concerned Citizens Group (KCCG) must be complimented for researching the proposed development which should be of great concern to all citizens of KDM. The letter published last week points out a number of irregularities in the awarding of the tender and emphasises the financial, social, economic and recreational implications on the ratepayer and the general public of KDM. Recently our municipality has been experiencing a number of protests related to service delivery in respect of housing, water supply, electricity, sanita-
tion and infrastructure. Our municipality should concentrate on service delivery and improving and maintaining existing facilities rather than embarking on new projects. for economic development and employment we need more factories and not malls. Our present sporting facilities are of historic significance and should remain central for the benefit of our local schools and the general public. Municipalities in general must accept that they face many challenges and they need to work to overcome these. Concerned Citizen

Universities are hosting their graduation ceremonies all around South Africa, but the only worry fixed in my mind is that are all these graduates guaranteed jobs? And the sad truth is, no they are not. The fortunate ones are those who had sponsors who promised them employment after graduation, but the rest will become a part of the ever growing percentage of unemployed youth in this country. Unemployment is a growing challenge in this country and I feel that our government should take serious measures in addressing this matter. Tears fill my eyes as I imagine the worth of these degrees, that students have fought so hard to get, falling to the ground due to a lack of employment.

Chances of one getting a job in this country of ours have been measured by the amount of connection a person preserves from the inside or the worth in their pockets. For a regular person who is struggling to make ends meet, they are left to endure the consequences of starvation and misery. This leaves them to resort to unlawful behaviour such as crime, and robbery becomes a source of income to the unemployed, struggling individuals in this country. Jobs are a necessity to a person’s life as it provides a stable income that guarantees the fulfillment of their daily need. In this country there has always been a constant struggle for employment. Sadly enough it is the youth who

suffer the most and I ask myself, what future will there be if it is the same future leaders who are left to suffer. When will the doors open for these young individuals to earn a living and stop relying on social grants? Young entrepreneurs are failing to survive in the business world because there are no sponsors willing to support their initiatives. I weep for the time I graduate as I do not wish to become a statistic in the rate of unemployment. Government should stop making promises during elections and not delivering on them as time progresses as this impacts badly on our country. We cannot all rely on tax payers’ contribution, but we should all be tax payers so that we can contribute.
Artisans hold the answer THE latest statistics reveal a slight decline of youth living below the poverty line. While this is good news, the status quo remains the same. The youth are still living in dire poverty and terrible conditions, and the unemployment rate is still growing. Unless the government devises appropriate programmes, the current state of living of our youth will persist. This is a reality for the youth that, for whatever reason, could not complete school and find themselves unskilled and unemployable.
We believe that if the unskilled youth are exposed to education programmes tailored to suit them, the poverty gap would be bridged substantially. However, access to higher education system is also a challenge, given the high cost of university education which led to the #FeesMustFall Campaign last year, and the lack of capacity at tertiary institutions. This calls for an alternative, which are occupational qualifications. These qualifications are accessible to everyone, including those who could
not finish school. They are quality assured by the Quality Council for Trades and Occupations (QCTO), and include the Electrical Line Mechanic qualification. The national Decade of Artisans initiative can only be realised if the youth consider occupational qualifications as a viable option for the betterment of their lives, and alleviation of poverty.

Don’t tease the dogs CHILDREN, and even some adults, find amusement in teasing dogs, causing dogs that would not usually be aggressive to get agitated. I have witnessed this many times. Teasing threatens the dogs’ sense of safety and security. If I was taunted and bullied constantly by someone in the street or over the fence, I’d probably also become annoyed. This can also cause disturbance to others. Please can The Witness and other pa-
pers run an educational awareness article to teach children and adults to ignore dogs, to resist the urge to stand in the road or in driveways and stare, mimicbark or throw stones, and rather just ignore the dogs and go past quietly. They must not hang over walls and look into other yards, which in itself is an invasion of privacy. This foolish behaviour is often the root cause of problems.

Zero tolerance for sexual offenders ACDP branches of KwaDukuza have welcomed with much jubilation the ruling to sentence Thulani Nzama to 25 years imprisonment for raping a 24-year old woman. The ACDP acknowledges that rape statistics in SA as a whole are unacceptably high. We know that 1300 women are raped in South Africa every day while 90% of rapes are not reported to the police. With the conviction rate for violent crimes only about 10% in SA, it poses a safety threat to women in our land. The ACDP commends the local court for the sentence it meted out.
Sentences like these that will deter this inhumane behaviour and put humanity and morality back into our society. We also need a government and a justice system that increases the conviction rate for violent crimes like rape and hands down tougher sentences for all sexual offences. Government should moreover consider banning pornography because it fosters a culture of disrespect towards women. The ACDP also believes that the SAPS should intensify its sexual offences awareness campaigns. We recommend that SAPS introduce such
community awareness campaigns through its sector policing forums. We call on government to ensure that all police stations have friendly victim empowerment facilities with staff that have been specially trained to take evidence from traumatised victims. All in all we welcome the sentence meted out. We believe that it has sent out a strong and clear message to sexual offenders who prey on our women. Justice has been done.

HYUNDAI Motor Company’s groundbreaking new IONIQ model has been recognized for its outstanding design in the coveted Vehicle category of the Red Dot Design Awards, be coming the sixth Hyundai car to receive a Red Dot title in the last three years. The award acknowledges the futureori entated design of the newest addition to Hyundai Motor’s car lineup. IONIQ is Hyundai Motor’s first dedicated ecofriendly model and is an important milestone in its sustaina bility strategy, with this latest award bringing further global recognition for its forward looking design philosophy. Hyundai Motor was recognized by Red
Dot jury for presenting an evolutionary de sign, through a refined, sophisticated form, and for its application of new ecofriendly materials. IONIQ presents new possibilities for Hyundai Motor’s future mobility styling, with its purified shape led by aerodynamics, and its refined, clean lines and surfaces en hancing its coupélike silhouette. The 2016 award follows on from three Red Dot Design Awards received in 2015, with the New Generation i20 Coupe, New Genera tion i20 Fivedoor and allnew Sonata recog nized for outstanding design. This followed accolades in 2014 for the allnew Genesis and New Generation i10.
technology. The core philosophy is the same, developed by people with the same passion. It is about creating performance that can be used in all situations, no matter whether it’s about winning a championship or being able to enjoy a safe, functional and fun-todrive car all year round,” says Thed Björk, Polestar Cyan Racing race and development driver. The race and road cars feature a further-developed four-cylinder Drive-E engine, with the two-litre, twin charged engine of the Volvo S60 and V60 Polestar producing 270 kW and 470 Nm. Despite the increased performance, fuel consumption and emissions are at a class-leading level of 7.8-litres per 100 km and 179 g/km CO2, further proving the efficiency of the Volvo’s Drive-E powertrain. Henrik Fries, Vice President R&D, Polestar, concludes: “All changes made to the car are about improving drivability and efficiency. The base of the new engine carries motorsport technology with solutions like the combination of turbo and supercharger, lightweight materials and more. This works hand-in-hand with our core philosophy and has enabled us to evolve the Volvo S60 and V60 Polestar.” Other new features on the cars include new 20-inch lightweight wheels, Polestar-calibrated electroassisted power steering and new slotted front brake discs, measuring 371 mm in diameter. Only 32 new Volvo S60 Polestar models will make their way to South African buyers in the third quarter of 2016, with similar pricing to the previous model. - Supplied
The allnew Sonata and Genesis received further recognition for design, winning the 2014 Good Design Award, while the New Gen eration i20 won the iF Design Award 2015 for its distinctive and sophisticated Bsegment styling. Drawing on a jury of 38 experts from 25 countries – all high profile designers, profes sors and journalists – the Red Dot Design Award is recognized globally as one of the most soughtafter marks for quality design. The 2016 contest attracted 5 214 entries from 57 countries, making the Red Dot Award the largest and most international product com petition in the world.

powered by a specially-enhanced version of Volvo’s award-winning four cylinder Drive-E powertrain. Polestar has taken an original S60 with a highly-advanced 2.0-litre four cylinder Drive-E engine and added a
bigger turbo, a supercharger, new conrods, new camshafts, a larger air intake and a higher capacity fuel pump to augment the engine, and matched it with a BorgWarner four-wheel drive system and the new Polestar-optimised eight-speed Geartronic automatic gearbox. The twin-charged engine churns out a mammoth 270 kW and 470 Nm. On top of this new performance-optimised equipment, Polestar has also reduced the car’s weight. The Volvo S60 Polestar is now 24 kg lighter over the front axle and 20 kg lighter in total compared to the previous model year. “These cars are properly quick,” says Niels Möller, Chief Operating Officer, Polestar. “But they are more than that. They combine Polestar’s 20 years of racing pedigree with Volvo’s inherent pragmatism and engineering heritage. These are very fast cars that you can use every day of the year.” The two new models also mark the globalisation of the Polestar brand. The first road legal Polestar cars were launched in 2014 to limited markets, including South Africa. Today, Polestar is delighted to announce that it is expanding the number of markets where Polestar models will be sold from 13 to 47 and doubling production volume from 750 cars per year up to 1 500. Both cars also trace their heritage to the Volvo S60 Polestar TC1, the allnew FIA World Touring Car Championship (WTCC) race car from Polestar Cyan Racing. The new road cars use the same base chassis, engine and philosophy of the team behind their development. “While used in vastly different areas, these cars share more than just

New head coach backs 2016/17 Dolphins squad N
EW head coach Grant Morgan is looking forward to instilling his fresh philosophy in the Sunfoil Dolphins squad of 2016/17 and taking the Durban franchise forward with the talented crop of players that now have a wealth of experience within it. The likes of Cricket South Africa contracted players Kyle Abbott and David Miller have left the Dolphins and will continue their career at the Warriors and VKB Knights respectively, however, Morgan backs the talent that remains. “It is a bit of blow to lose players like Kyle [Abbott] and David [Miller], however there is a huge amount of talent still left here at the Dolphins,” says Morgan. “There is no doubt that a very competitive Dolphins team will represent the Dolphins in all formats come the start of the new season.” Morgan is also confident the strength of the province’s two provincial squads – KwaZulu-Natal and KZN Inland – during the 2015/16 season will help create a healthy competition for places in the Dolphins mix come the new season. “Inland, having performed extremely well this past season and KZN having done nicely outside of the 50 overs competition, has also meant

The Dolphins don’t have any reason to believe that Imran Tahir won’t turn out for them in 2016/17, however, confirmation of this is only expected in the near future due to the world class leg spinner yet to sign his CSA contract. “The vast majority of our squad has been with us for some time now and we fully back their ability and talent to take us as a Franchise to where we want to be,” says Sunfoil Dolphins
