I N V O LV I N G T R A F F I C OFFICER FROM THABA CHWEU MUNICIPALITY. The purpose is to provide the Member of the Executive Council with the outcome of the investigation of the complaint received on 30 November 2018 of alleged fraudulent activities during his/ her employment. The name of the officer is being withheld because the case is still under investigation and it is probable that more officers were involved. After the request for final investigation and visit to Thaba Chweu from the legislative in Mbombela on Friday 19 January, the following was confirmed: 1) Notice was on the court roll of 17 January and that a Warrant of Arrest was issued. The warrant of arrest is currently not executed and still active. There is evidence of fraudulent tickets written out where the type of vehicle, identification number of the driver and other statistics written down do not add up. The originals of the tickets were also found and were not given to the drivers and payment of bribes are part of the complaint. ~ Michelle Boshoff
Traffic fraud
The ticket was purposefully distorted to protect the identity of the driver that was scammed.

HE HOMELESS MAN in this photo can just as well be sleeping behind the palisades. That is because he is in an open jail and doesn't need palisades to be a captive of his circumstances. He has been 'a resident' in De Beer Street Lydenburg since approximately the middle of April. He first camped out on the corner at Standard Bank and slept in their parking lot's garden. Standard Bank and their security didn't do anything to help or try to remove him. He then moved to the tree directly in front of the Dutch Reformed Church. He is there day in and day out. We suspect he uses the open lot across from the church for his ablutions. The De Beer Street residents have an active whatsApp group and several of the residents have tried to help out, by giving him blankets and food. They have also called state departments, their own churches and other non profit organisations. Sometimes he will just throw the food on the ground and say it is poison. A community leader of Mashishing, a Pastor of Mashishing and other social workers that work with the homeless were contacted. The community leader in Mashishing said that the man may have been left in Lydenburg and that he is actually from Burgersfort. According to him people from Burgersfort come and dump their elderly with Dementia here, because they won't be able to find their way home. It appears that the man may be mentally ill. But after weeks of observation I don't think it is the case – he just acts up when people approach him. The community leader of Mashishing and the Pastor was extremely kind and concerned over the phone, but there has been no active solution. I need to be very clear that several institutions were contacted and they were asked how to help him. When I went the offices of a social worker their neighbours said the office has been closed for 10 days and they don’t know where the social workers are. The Lydenburg Hospital, SAPS and Rata were great giving advice – but there is so much red tape that they always need another department to give the go-

ahead, to fill in forms or to give permission to remove him or admit him to an institution. The man is not doing anything wrong and doesn’t appear to be a criminal. We were hoping that he could be admitted to the Lydenburg Hospital for psychiatric evaluation. That will at least get him off the streets for a few days. Five homeless people were murdered in Pretoria last week. Homeless people are a soft target and this man is attacked nearly every weekend and everything he managed to gather the
during the week gets stolen. But for this homeless man it is also a battle for survival in these freezing temperatures. And there are many more homeless people in Lydenburg. At best, they have a tree to sleep under during the day. The broader society simply ignores their existence. It is sad that there is zero support from any state organisation and the rest of his community.
Perhaps because the man is homeless, a part of society has forgotten him and he knows he is just a menace to society. But is it fair to leave him under a tree for the rest of the winter? Please respond to this article with a positive and helpful plan of action by phoning 082 450 4876. You can clearly see where to find him and try to help out. By Michelle Boshoff

Belangrike kennisgewing in verband met Rusoord Shade. Skadu onder die palmtakke. Dit beteken nie om in die skadu te sit nie. Die bitsige manier wat mense met mekaar kan kommunikeer. En om steke in mekaar se rigting te gooi. As jy niksvermoedend in ‘n geselskap staan en dié pyl op jou neer. Jy staan en dink aan jou honde wat jy gister gebad het... en ‘n paar sekondes later reën die goed deurdagte gifpyle met ‘n arsenaal op jou neer. Die drie het so lekker in die warm water gestaan met die skuim om hulle. Jy doen niemand kwaad nie. Jy dink nie aan slegte dinge nie. Jy staan net daar. Ja ek is seker ‘n goeie teiken. Want ek dra elke emosie op my arm. Ek het nie die geen gekry om my emosies weg te steek nie en ek kry nog nie Botox nie. Dit is een van die dae my plan. Al moet ek nooit weer eet nie. Toe lees ek die rubriek van Gustaf Pienaar op www.litnet.org.za Ek dink nie hy het na die emosionele kant van die geselskap verwys nie maar eintlik na dieregeweld. Hy skryf oor hoe die beweging Beauty without Cruelty in Augustus 1985 by minstens twee spoorwegstasies tussen Kaapstad en Simonstad groot advertensieborde gehuur en daarop 'n baie omstrede maar hoogs effektiewe advertensie geplak het. Dit het bestaan uit 'n foto van die onderlyf van 'n dame wat 'n romp aangehad het. Daarby het sy sykouse en hoëhakskoene gedra, asook 'n lang pelsjas wat so agter haar aan gesleep het – alles in swart en wit. Agter die sleep van die jas was daar 'n lang bloedspoor wat in helder, kontrasterende rooi uitgebeeld is. En dan was daar die boodskap opskrif: "It takes up to 40 dumb animals to make a fur coat. But only one to wear it". Was dit die wyse Shakespeare wat iets gesê het van die dame wat net so 'n bietjie te veel gemor het? "The lady doth protest too much, methinks.” Of sou ons in mooi idiomatiese Afrikaans sê: "As die jakkals tjank, is die skoot raak." Ja my tjank is afgetrap ek sal weer moed vir die week moet bymekaarskraap. ~ Michelle Boshoff
NUMERI 32:13: Die Here was baie kwaad vir Israel en het hulle veertig jaar lank in die woestyn laat rondswerf, totdat die hele geslag omgekom het wat in sy oë verkeerd gedoen het. Vader vergewe en behoed ons van hierdie lot en gee dat ons nuwe geslagte wel U beloofde land sal ervaar - Amen.
DIE Bestuur van Rusoord Tehuis vir bejaardes wil graag die volgende onder alle betrokkenes se aandag bring: Geen medikasie mag deur die inwoners by hulself of in hulle kamers gehou word nie. Enige en alle voorgeskrewe en rakmedikasie moet aan die tehuis se verpleegpersoneel besorg word vir veilige bewaring en dosering aan die pasient. 'n Beroep word dus gedoen op families, kinders, dokters en aptekers om streng toe te sien dat afgelewerde medisyne in die hande van die tehuis se verpleegpersoneel alleenlik gelaat moet word, met
duidelike instruksies vir wie dit bedoel is en welke dosisse wanneer toegedien moet word. Hierdie reel is nodig omdat van die inwoners soms vergeet watter medikasie teen watter dosisse geneem moet word, per ongeluk nalaat om hulle medisyne te neem, per ongeluk kan oordoseer, of per ongeluk die verkeerde medikasies kan kombineer. Ons maak in hierdie verband staat op almal se samewerking. Rusoord Bestuur.
Silwer toekenning vir DN Makelaars
By die onlangse Mpumalanga Streektoekennings van Santam het die plaaslike DN Makelaars silwer gewen. Veels geluk aan die gedugte span.

IN celebrating the National Child Protection Week, the police in Ohrigstad led by the social crime prevention coordinator Sgt Kholofelo Phokane jointly with the VEP members, CPF and YAC members conducted two separate awareness campaigns around Ohrigstad policing area. In the first campaign the members visited Kiba Creche at Majaditshukudu village outside Ohrigstad. The little ones displayed the knowledge and understanding by doing poems, which they learned at school.
Beloofde Land NEE, ek praat nie van die Heuwels Fantasties se liedjie met dieselfde titel nie. Ek is meer ’n Pink Floyd (The Wall) of ’n Deep Purple (Smoke on the water) of Uriah Heep (Stealin) tipe. Nee, ek verwys na die praatjie van Sipho Nkosi (SBI Voorsitter) nou die dag by die Sakekamer se jaarvergadering. Sy praatjie was hoopvol. Hoopvol oor die toekoms van hierdie land Suid Afrika wat nou so vinnig en dramaties uitmekaarval onder die ANC bewind.
Aldus mnr. Nkosi het sy navorsing getoon dat veral Afrikalande sowat 40 jaar neem om te stabiliseer en te presteer na ’n rewolusie, of na onafhanklikheid vanaf die datum van die einde van kolonialisme. Ons is nou 25 jaar in hierdie ding. Sy analogie met die Israeliete wat 40 jaar onder Moses in die woestyn rondgeswerf het, was interessant. Volgends die ou Testament het die Israeliete in die tyd afgode gebou, honger gely en voortdurend gemurmereer. Baie min van hulle het die beloofde land gesien. Mnr Nkosi se goeie nuus was dat dit
In another campaign the members visited Maepa Primary School outside Ohrigstad town, where more than 120 learners were addressed at their assembly point. During his address, Sgt Phokane advised the learners not to play next to fire places without the supervision of elders and that they must refrain from starting veld fires because its winter and that can cause serious accidents and / or damages to other people's properties. The Youth Against Crime chairperson Puleng Msibi warned the learners not to smoke or drink alcohol. Suid Afrika nie 40 jaar sal neem om reg te kom nie. Volgens hom kan ons Zuma, die Guptas en die ANC bedank hiervoor. Hulle destruktiewe kaskenades het baie mense in die land wakker gemaak en hulle dring nou aan op stabiliteit. Op ’n beter ekonomie, beter onderwys, beter gesondheidstelsels en ’n drastiese afname in misdaad. Siende dat ek oor die algemeen positief is, kan ek nogal met hom saamstem. Die skrif is aan die muur vir die huidige spul. Die EFF moet nog hulle beurt kry, maar dit sal van korte duur wees. Vir die wat net murmereer, die geld afgod aanhang, of weghol kan ek net sê: Oppas dat julle nie die beloofde land misloop nie! Die tyd kom vinnig nader dat ons vrede, voorspoed en ’n misdaadvrye samelewing gaan opeis. Hou die plaaslike regering verkiesings binne twee jaar dop. Dit gaan die begin van verandering wees.

Hino wins top award Be careful of modified cars HINO South Africa’s Dealer Network continued to vote its brand as the best in the country in terms of Dealer Satisfaction for the third year in succession at the recent annual awards by the National Automobile Dealers’ Association (NADA). Hino once again collected a platinum award as it placed top of the commercial vehicle category in the Dealer Satisfaction Index (DSI) rankings. Hino SA made history when it was one of the first truck manufacturers to earn a platinum award in 2017. This year Hino was the only truck franchise to collect platinum, with one brand collecting gold, three gaining silver awards and three placed in the bronze category. Platinum is awarded for scores over 85 points, with gold between 75 and 84.9, silver between 70 and 74.9 and bronze between 65 and 69.9. Hino SA was the only franchise in the top five to improve its score over 2018. This year it scored 86.1, which was 2.3 points higher than its 2018 score. The NADA DSI survey, which has now been conducted for 24 years, is undertaken annually to monitor the health of the relationship between dealers and their respective manufacturers or distributors. “The improvement in Hino’s rating over the past few years – the franchise ranked only fifth in 2013 – did not happen by accident. It was our objective to gain No. 1 position and a platinum rating,” said Ernie Trautmann, Vice President of Hino South Africa. “This achievement of getting to No. 1 and then retaining this top position is truly a team effort and living testimony to our One Team One Pledge approach to the way we do business. It is also an important outflow from the International Total Support strategy which we have employed for several years now.” This latest achievement in topping NADA’s DSI for the third year in a row f o l l o w s H i n o ’ s dominance i n t h e quarterly Data Track comparative truck survey which is based on customer interviews. Hino’s latest combined score for sales, service and parts was again over 99%. The results of the first quarter Data Track at the end of March marked the third successive quarter where Hino placed top in the combined score ranking of this important survey. Motorpress.co.za

WITH more than half a million South Africans browsing Gumtree for parts, there's a booming online aftermarket for car parts and accessories which is being accessed largely by informal mechanics indulging in their favourite hobby. But whether it's done for style or for performance (or both), changing a manufacturer's specs on a vehicle should be done with great caution. Firstly, it's a bit of a legal minefield. The relevant Acts are inadequate to cover most modifications and, in particular, lack detail, which means the authorities have a broad license to interpret almost any changes as illegal simply because the vehicle is no longer identical to the way it rolled off the production line. Obviously any modifications which demonstrably improve the safety of a vehicle
(better brakes as an example) will not be problematic, but almost anything else could get you into trouble. Some areas to keep a special eye on are: • Being able to prove that a replacement engine has been legally obtained - all engines and chassis should have VIN numbers or other forms of identification. • Completely darkened windows are illegal immediately and attract attention from the police. • Highly exaggerated noise from massive exhausts is anti-social, drains expensive fuel and, once again, draws notice from the authorities. The best way to protect yourself is to get a roadworthy on the modified vehicle once you have finished the work. Leaving aside the law, your primary concern should be the safety of the modified vehicle. Here you should follow some basic rules: • Only use quality parts from a reputable manufacturer – it's not uncommon for cars that have stood outside on cinder blocks for months to be broken up for parts and they can be hazardous. • Don't overpower the vehicle body – the braking system and structure of a smaller car may not be able to cope with a massive boost in engine power. • Always get a licensed professional to fit a custom body kit to your car (even one that you've made yourself) - loose parts are particularly dangerous. • Do not DIY your car's electrical system – improper insulation or overloaded circuits can cause a hazardous engine fire. • Dropping the ride (lowering the vehicle) carries serious handling implications and can cause accidents at speed – the same applies to outsized wheels. • Don't add to passenger capacity – squeezing in some extra seats is acutely dangerous especially if those seats are not properly anchored and don't have seat belts. Finally, many of the problems facing vehicle modifiers come from the 'street racing' perception that it's all about risk and speed in ways that endanger drivers and the public. Don't be part of that. If your passion is to drive fast then only use your modified vehicle on a properly regulated racetrack. by Jeff Osborne of Gumtree Autos.

Do not miss the Classic Car Show at Nasrec on 7 July BIG on Muscle Cars, Big on Classic VWs, Mighty on Minis and a British Invasion too. That’s the message organiser Paulo Calisto is sending out for Gauteng’s biggest mid-winter classic car bash at Nasrec Expo Centre on July 7, 2019. Driver and one passenger of a classic car gets free admission to the show. Food, drink, a prawn festival and helicopter rides for the whole family. There will be drifting and passenger rides in drift cars at this year’s show. Admission price is R60 through Computicket, R80 at the gate, children under 12 - R20. The Show runs from 8 am to 4pm on Sunday, July 7. Over the past seven years The Classic Car Show’s mid-winter bash at Nasrec has built up a fine tradition in the crisp Highveld weather that can be expected at this time of the year. Once again, over 1 000 classic cars, hot rods and muscle cars are expected, making this Gauteng’s biggest motor show. As in past years, the gates open for spectators at 8 am at the impressive Nasrec Expo complex, which is located just of the N1 Highway, south west of Johannesburg, and just a wheel-spin away from Soccer City. The easiest way to get to the Nasrec Expo Centre is via the Rand Show Road exit, with the venue about 1 km east of the N1. The Classic Car scene continues to thrive in South Africa, and this twiceyearly event at Nasrec draws a diverse mix of classics that is one again expected to number over 1 000 cars. “This July we are extending a special invitation to owners of British Classic cars to spend the day mixing it up with the American Muscle and the other European classics,“ says organiser Paulo Calisto. “We are expecting a number of Triumphs, Austin Healeys, MGs, Jaguars and hopefully some Morgan sports cars too. American muscle cars have traditionally arrived at The Classic Car Show from all over Gauteng and Pretoria. This year we are targeting a large contingent of the traditional British sports cars, the idea being that variety is the spice of Classic Car life!” Mini’s up-coming 60th birthday will be celebrated at Nasrec on July 7. As a preview to the big Birthday Bash for Minis in late August, a number of classic, first-generation Minis are once again expected at Nasrec. In past years there have been up to 30 original Minis in short-nose and long-nose form making the run to Nasrec, and this year should be no different. The Mini turns 60 this year on August 24, and The Classic Car Show will give many Mini owners the opportunity to give their classic little Minis a dry run before their big birthday bash in Cullinan late in August. As has been the tradition at The Classic Car Show over the past seven years, many builders of serious American Muscle from the ‘60s and ‘70s use the Nasrec event to showcase their latest rides. Expect a strong presence of Mustangs from the 1960s and ‘70s, Chevrolet Camaros, Oldsmobiles, Plymouths, Dodges and other larger cars that originated from America. A favourite ride as usual will be the classic Chevrolets from the so-called Tri-Chevy years of 1955 to 1957. These were the cars that were most popular amongst a whole generation of muscle car freaks inspired by the 1970s movie, American Graffiti. The interesting thing about these triChevy models is that they were all based on the same bodyshell, but different grilles, chrome accents and wing treatment give them a look that is significantly different in each of the model years. Hot rods and pick-up trucks will again form a huge part of the classic car turn-out. Of note will be the traditional Rolling Thunder display which rolls to the show all the way from Pretoria, and which traditionally sets up shop

outside Hall 5 at Nasrec. From a European perspective, DKW two-stroke cars have been enjoying a stronger presence each year at Nasrec, as well as other German brands, such as Taunus, Mercedes-Benz and Opel. There seems to be no end to the popularity-growth enjoyed by the Volkswagen bus and Beetle brigade. Kombis in both classic and custom form traditionally make The Classic Car Show scene each year, and the VW Beetle in models ranging from the 1950s to the late 1970s are expected to show up in ever-increasing numbers. The owners of classic cars will be admitted free of charge to the Classic Car Show on August 7, 2019. Admission will be free for the driver and one passenger, while extra passengers will have to pay a full admission fee. The Show runs from 8 am to 4 pm. Classic car owners can gain access to the display area from 7 am. As usual there will be a full complement of entertainment, food and drink laid on by the organisers, with live rock music being a traditional feature of the show.

Om vir amper 12 ure aaneen te hardloop sit nie in enige persoon se broek nie. Rudolph de Wet het weer eens hierdie jaar die Comrades aangedurf en kan met trots aankondig dat hy dit die 19de keer voltooi het. Hy het dit gehardloop in 11:55:18. Hierdie jaar was dit die langafstandstryd (opdraende) en dit het in Durban afgeskop.
On Saturday, 15 June MCC members participated in the annual Selati Big 5 MTB race in Komatipoort, hosted by the Komatipoort Academy as a fundraiser for the school. The following members participated in the 20km : Johan Sadler Helgaard Prins Juanita Prins 45Km Darren McDonald Ilse McDonald Marius Sadler entered the race, but had to withdraw due to falling ill on Friday night. It was a perfect day for cycling, and part of the route followed, was right on the border with the Kruger National Park along the Olifants river. Entrants spotted elephant, hippos, warthogs as well as various antelope species along the way. Everyone enjoyed the race immensely and our cyclists have been participating in the race for the past 4 years, and will definitely be back for next year's race. Everyone received a medal upon completion of the race.
