Mmetle lei die GTM Vroue lei in 60% van die munisipaliteite

Francois Aucamp Het die ANC ter elfder ure begin twyfel oor hul burgemeesterskandidaat, me Dikeledi Mmetle (foto links), vir die GroterTzaneen Munisipaliteit? Dit was gister die groot vraag, nadat ‘n eerste stadsraadsvergadering vir gister (Donderdag) belê is — hoofsaaklik om ‘n nuwe burgemeester, speaker en lede vir die uitvoerende komitee aan te wys — en toe Woensdagmiddag tot volgende week uitgestel is. Aanvanklik is mnr Mudumo Napoleon Mboweni beskou as die gunsteling om as burgemeester oor te neem. Hy gaan nou glo as speaker aangewys word. Mmetle, van Lenyenye, se naam het egter die laaste tyd sterk opgeduik en teen Woensdag was dit ‘n uitgemaakte saak

dat sy die GTM se volgende eerste burger sal wees. Dit sal meebring dat die GTM se mees senior verkose lid en die mees senior amptenaar (me Conny Mametja) dames is. Die uitstel kan ook die gevolg wees van ‘n gebrek aan eenstemmigheid oor van die ander ampte en dat Mmetle steeds veilig agter die verhoog wag om die volgende groot sprong te maak. Sy is ook die skakelpersoon by die Letaba Hospitaal. Die ANC in Limpopo het met die aanwysing van burgemeesters duidelik bevestig dat hul vroue wil bemagtig. Minstens agtien van die dertig munisipaliteite (60%) — distriksmunisipaliteite inkluis — sal deur vroue gelei word. Alhoewel mnr Joshua Matlou aanbly as burgemeester van die Mopani Dis-

Mnr Godfrey City Modjadji (foto onder) is die kandidaat vir die Groter Letaba Munisipaliteit (Modjadjiskloof) en mnr Pat Hlungwani sal die Groter Giyani Munisipaliteit lei. In Ba-Phalaborwa is me Anna Sono die ANC-uitverkorene en by Maruleng (Hoedspruit) sal mnr Pule Mafologelo die span agter hom Modjadji moet konsolideer.

Politieke Recycling Vlieg praat met die volk, en krap waar dit jeuk! Die taal bly vir Vlieg darem maar ‘n wonderlike ding. Dan bedoel Vlieg natuurlik nie Die Taal, soos die strugglelaars graag neerhalend na sy taal verwys nie; hy bedoel tale in die algemeen. Maar Vlieg se taal is vir hom een van sy gunsteling speelgoed, al is hy eintlik maar ‘n agterplaastaalkundige. Dis te lekker om elke nou en dan ‘n nuwe woord te leer. So is dit net so lekker om elke nou en dan agter te kom dat daar ‘n woord is wat dikwels deur baie mense gebruik word, wat nie eintlik bestaan nie. Vlieg weet die meer ervare taalkundiges het ‘n woord vir sulke woorde, hy weet net nie wat dit is nie. Vlieg se jongste taalkundige ontdekking is dat daar nie ‘n woord is soos herontplooi nie. As daar so ‘n woord was, sou hy op pagina 383 van Vlieg se reeds veelbesproke woordeboek gewees het, toevallig op die bladsy voor Hervormd, wat natuurlik niks met vandag se storie uit te waai het nie. Of het dit? Daar is wel ‘n woord soos ontplooi, pagina 784. Dit beteken òf om ‘n vlag oop te rol — soos wat Vlieg leer doen het toe hy in die Broederbond se kinderbende met die fakkels koers gehou het — òf, en dit verskil nie veel van die voormelde bendetjie se kinderaktiwiteite nie, om troepe in ‘n oorlogsituasie oor ‘n groot gebied te verdeel. Dit is seker heel aanvaarbaar om die voorvoegsel her- voor enige woord te plaas as iets weer gedoen moet word. So was herontplooi

maar die logiese gevolg van die politieke veranderings, net soos hersien, herverdeel, heropbou, herbenaam, herbewapen, herdenk, herindeel, heropen… Vlieg wil tog vir die skrywers van woordeboeke ‘n voorstel maak as hulle dalk eendag wel sou besluit dat herontplooi ‘n woord is. her’ont-plooi ww. Die aanstelling van in die algemeen nuttelose persone, meestal kaders, in nuwe hoogbetaalde senior posisies waarvan hulle niks weet nie, omdat hulle in hul vorige hoogbetaalde senior posisies, waarvan hulle ook niks geweet het nie, ‘n helse bokkerop gemaak het en so ‘n verleentheid geword het dat hulle nie langer daar kon aanbly nie, in die geloof dat as hulle gerecycle word, hulle in hul nuwe posisies asseblief tog net nie weer dieselfde sal aanjaag nie. Vlieg se redakteur se prokureur het voorgestel dat hy liewer nie name as voorbeelde noem om sy nuwe woord te illustreer nie, maar het saamgestem dat dit ‘n Manyifieke idee sal wees, selfs vir nuwe woordvoerders van premiers om hierdie woord met Common Sense te gebruik. Nog ‘n her-woord wat onwillekeurig in dié verband opduik, is natuurlik hersenskim en Vlieg kan nie verstaan hoekom nie! In elk geval, as herontplooi, soos meeste ander dinge in politieke gebruik ook een of ander tyd uitgedien, gebreek of gesteel word, kan die mediese wetenskap dit maar oorneem. Dit is nou as die eerste face lift nie meer werk nie!

Tydens die SAVF se onlangse Wear to Care Hoededag het verskeie besighede die projek ondersteun, deur snaakse hoede te dra. Steward Maritz Basson Prokereurs in Tzaneen se personeel het met handgemaakte hoedjies gespog. Agter regs is mnr George Bvuma.

Caitlin, daughter of Mauritz and Brenda Alberts, and Martin, son of Andre and Marina Boekee, were married during a beautiful afternoon ceremony at Sefapane Lodge and Safaris in Phalaborwa on 23 April. The newlywed couple will base themselves in Tzaneen.

Plaque stolen

Ten FNB promo hampers — with lovely T-shirts, water bottles, etc — will be up for grabs at next Saturday’s big rugby clash in Tzaneen. Make sure you remember to wear your tattoo next Saturday during the Lowveld Derby between Merensky and Ben Vorster. Bulletin photographers will be taking photo’s of pupils of the two schools that have the FNB logo tattoo visible on their faces. Don’t miss out; display your tattoo.

Susan Ettmayr Recently the plaque at the John Buchan memorial was stolen. Tim Marsay has kindly taken on the task of replacing it with a granite plaque. It was a very eloquent extract and gave tourists something to stop and look at and think about. Please if anyone can make a donation towards this let Tim know.

Phalaborwa se ‘Idols’ weer hier

“Basaar Idols 2011” op Phalaborwa word volgende Vrydag (3 Junie) weer deur die Hervormde Kerk Phalaborwa op die rugbyvelde van die Laerskool Phalaborwa aangebied. Vanjaar se “Idols” gaan groter as die voriges wees, met heelwat nuwe talent wat ingeskryf het vanuit Limpopo se Laeveldstreek. ‘n Rekord aantal inskrywings is ontvang vir die junior en senior afdelings van die kompetisie. Toerusting van hoogstaande gehalte gaan gebruik word. Toeskouers sal ook die pro-

gram op ‘n groot skerm kan volg, terwyl heerlike basaar-kosse en lekkernye geniet kan word — verkrygbaar van die verskillende koskraampies. Die vertoning begin stiptelik om 18:00 en duur tot 21:00. Toegang sal gratis wees. Aangesien daar gewoonlik baie toeskouers opdaag, is die voorsiende sitplek beperk en word mense aangeraai om hul eie opslaanstoele of komberse om te sit, saam te bring. Die wenners van die twee kategorieë gaan weer groot geborgde pryse ontvang.

Besmette hondekos eis nou ook diere in Tzaneen Louis Roux Vrektes onder honde weens giftige diereprodukte kom nou ook in Tzaneen voor, ondanks waarskuwings teen sekere soorte hondekos wat landwyd deur veeartse en die departement van landbou, bosbou en visserye uitgereik is. Die Tzaneen Dierekliniek se veeartse het verlede week twee oproepe gehad van mense wie se honde gevrek het, Ruby, ‘n Labrador/Boerboelkruising van Tarentaalrand, is een van die siek nadat tipiese simptome van aflatoksikose by hulle waarhonde wat in die Tzaneen Dierekliniek met ernstige aflatoksikose opge- geneem is. neem is. Mense moet nou uiters bedag wees op vergiftigde hondekos. Nog twee honde is Maandag by die kliniek in die dierehospitaal opgeneem, met die siekte onder lede. Dr Pieter Cordier van die kliniek sê sedert die departement aangekondig het dat die produkte Buddies Complete, Legends en Hi-PRO van die mark verbied is, het winkels dié produkte onttrek. Dit wil voorkom of daar

New technology used to prevent blindness A new laser that can help prevent blindness in diabetics now has a permanent home in Tzaneen. Dr Shaun Thompson (left), a semi-local Ophthalmologist (eye-specialist), hopes that his new laser machine will help improve many diabetics’ lives. Diabetics should be screened once a year by an ophthalmologist so that eye problems can be diagnosed and treated early on. Thompson is available on Mondays, Tuesdays and Fridays at his consulting rooms at Ivory Tusk Lodge next to Tzaneen Medi-Clinic and welcomes private and medicalaid patients. He focuses specifically on diabetic patients. For enquiries contact his consulting rooms at 015 307 6749.

nog mense is wat dalk ou voorraad van dié handelsmerke in hul besit het en so onwetend die diere se siekte veroorsaak. Aflatoksikose ontstaan wanneer ‘n mikotoksien — wat deur ‘n fungus veroorsaak word — plantaardige gewasse soos grane, sade en neute besmet. Die drie voorgenoemde kossoorte is verbied, nadat dit deur die Onderstepoort Veterinêre Instituut positief vir aflatoksiene getoets is. Cordier sê honde-eienaars moet op die uitkyk wees vir simptome soos skielike vrekte, lusteloosheid, verlies aan aptyt, bloederige stoelgange, geelsug en in langdurige gevalle geswelde buike weens vogopbouing (ascites). Hulle moet dadelik die betrokke hondekosse vernietig en vermy en onmiddellik hul naaste veearts raadpleeg, om voorkomend op te tree.

Luiperd vang honde Minstens drie honde in Modjadjiskloof se Panorama-woonbuurt het reeds die dorp se wandelende luiperd ten prooi geval. Die luiperd het ‘n paar maande gelede sy eerste verskyning gemaak, toe dit op die kameras van die Silver Mist-gastehuis vasgelê is. Lede van die publiek beweer ook dat hulle die dier al in die omgewing opgemerk het. Na verneem word, is ‘n Rottweiler, ‘n Boxer en ‘n worshondjie al deur die luiperd doodgebyt. Laasgenoemde is dié van mnr Michael Toulou. Die luiperd het glo ‘n groot

hap uit die hondjie se lyf geruk en laat spaander. Een van die inwoners in Panorama, me Gillian Mynhardt, sê druk word op die oomblik op Natuurbewaring geplaas om die dier op te spoor en na ‘n veiliger habitat oor te plaas. “Ons is skrikkerig vir die luiperd. Wanneer jy skemer van die werk huis toe gaan, voel die paar treë na die voordeur soos ‘n kilometer,” sê sy. Die dier is vermoedelik deur ander luiperdmannetjies uit hul gebied verjaag en nou skuil hy in die heuwels by Panorama.

Top anglers raise money

Some of the winners of Round Table Tzaneen’s Kayak fishing competition which was held at Hans Merensky Nature Reserve are seen here.

Die probleem met rylopers wat by die ingang na die Sasol-vulstasie langs die R71 in Tzaneen die verkeer gereeld ontwrig, vererger weekliks. Selfs die SA Polisie waak nou af en toe daar oor die probleem, maar dit help nie. Die verkeerspolisie lyk of hulle gehensop het en doen maar min om die probleem te besweer.

Beaunice Machitela The Round Table Tzaneen club recently organised the Round Table Kayak Fishing competition at the Hans Merensky Nature Reserve. The fishing competition was attended by fellow tablers from Tzaneen, Phalaborwa, Louis Trichardt and Polokwane. The anglers caught fish between 06:00 and 11:00, and during that time many fish were caught with the biggest weighing in at 1,12 kg. Everyone who entered stood a chance of winning their share of prizes worth R25 000. The first three spots in the categories for the biggest fish, kayak angler and shore angler received prizes. There were also prizes to be won in a lucky draw. All the money raised will be going to a worthy cause for the needy and according to Round Table Tzaneen the project promises to be an annual event; that will grow from strength to The best junior angler received her prize from strength with the support of the community. the Round Table Tzaneen chairman.

Mother and daughter team up to make hats Nicky Alternroxel A Mom and daughter team with passion and drive: that’s Ms Nontokozo Zwane and her daughter Ms Sinenhlanhla Zwane. Zwane has memories of wearing hats from a very young age and has decided to do something about her passion. Nontokozo, meaning beautiful, was raised in Kwazulu-Natal and is now living in Tzaneen. She works at the department of agriculture, after a spell as a teacher.

Zwane’s motto is “believe in yourself and your product.” She loves the colour green and it even features prominently in her logo. Green means growth and that is what she believes in. Zwane plans to open a hat shop in the Tzaneen Central Mall in the near future. She has already started selling hats from home and is doing “incredibly well”.

Pupil diagnosed with degenerative eye disease Sue Ettmayr Matthew Sankey (15), a Grade 7 pupil at Stanford Lake College and a keen rugby player, moved to the area just over a year ago. He started losing eyesight during the move. Matthew says “I was watching TV and suddenly noticed my right eye was blurred. Then I noticed that the left eye was also blurred. I thought I needed new glasses. There had been signs like not being able to see the teacher’s handwriting on the blackboard.” “I went to see a specialist opThis is a group photo from the Scooters Pizza South Africa’s gala awards dinner that was recently held tometrist in Johannesburg and in Johannesburg.

The rapidity of the disease will be known at the three-month check-up.” For now Matthew has to get used to hard glasslike contact lenses that cost R2, 000 each. Once he’s adapted to these, he can wear them for twelve hours at a stretch, and get a pair of spectacles for in between. On his prognosis Mathew said: “My eyes hurt and ache, mainly at night. There’s huge progress being made in eye surgery and delicate eye surgery can be performed if there’s a corneal donor. I remain hopeful.”

Coffee or plants... the choice is yours Susan Ettmayr “If you can afford a cup of coffee every week, you can afford an indoor plant a week,” says Ms Henriette van der Berg (37). Van der Berg has been in the plant business for more than a decade. She began her professional career in Musina as manager of the Spur. She joined the family plant business in Musina. Five years ago she broke away, and moved to Haenertsburg to concentrate on supplying

indoor plants to companies. She operates in Polokwane, Tzaneen, Musina, Beit Bridge, Louis Trichardt, Thohoyandou, Sibasa and Mokopane. She says “Plants are more than a beautiful addition to decorate interior space. Research shows that indoor plants clean the air, thereby removing common pollutants, create a happier environment and reduce stress levels. She and long time employee Ernest Ntonda install the plants and maintain them every two

weeks. Decorative plants are installed, taking into account light conditions, space and business requirements regarding decor and corporate colours. “Clients hire plants and included in the price is our fortnightly maintenance, feeding and replacing of ailing plants. Clients don’t touch the plants as the plants have a special watering system. There’s a variety of plants to choose from and whatever type of pot is needed, we can fulfill those requirements.”

This is where we stand The Bulletin publishes news on local government activities as part of its service to the community. It is not our policy nor our intention to focus only on the “bad” news, or to seek to belittle councils and/or councillors or portray it in a negative way. We do not believe that our readers are only interested in stories critical of the competency of the municipalities or about things going wrong in our towns and district. So we invite the relevant communications departments to give us the good news — the positive achievements, the successes, new appointments, projects completed, milestones along the way. Last week the chief electrical engineer of Tzaneen gave us reassuring information on dealing with the town’s electricity problems. We published it in full. His response, of course, was to our earlier story about the crisis, based on the council’s own document. He, or the communications manager, could of course pre-empt a lot of uncertainty if timeous information had been given to us on the increased budgets and expenditure, on the upgrading of capacity. Let us hear when funding has been received from the Electrical Services Contribution policy he mentions. Every department surely has some information that shows it in a positive light, even if it reflects progress in solving a problem. Has the licensing department reduced corruption at the licence testing centres? Has another landfill site been located? Has information technology overcome some of the alarming shortfalls identified in the latest IDP? We are a medium of communication to your ratepayers. Use us to your best advantage.

Toegang en toelating: ‘n Kaartjie verleen toegang tot ‘n konsert/wedstryd en dies meer (en daasonder sal jy nie ingelaat word nie). ‘n Slaagsyfer in die eksamen verseker toelating tot ‘n universiteit/kollege. ‘n Pasiënt word in ‘n hospitaal opgeneem (nie toegelaat nie).

Geluk en sterkte Ons wens graag alle verkose raadslede in die ses munisipaliteite in ons bedieningsgebied geluk met hul verkiesing; en sterkte vir die taak wat op hulle wag. Ons het ‘n vermoede dat nie almal mooi besef wat op hulle wag nie. G’n mens stap sommer deesdae in ‘n stadsraad in en snap hoe dinge werk en hoe dinge nie werk nie. Veral laasgenoemde vra insig, wysheid en geduld. En natuurlik ookm integriteit. Maar vir solank die agbares onthou hulle is ons verteenwoordigers wat ons regte moet beskerm, behoort dit nie te lol nie.

Die einde is hier! Daar is die afgelope week baie geskryf en gepraat oor die wederkoms en die einde van die wêreld. In een van die dagblaaie was daar `n brief van iemand wat sê dat die wederkoms nie nou kan plaasvind nie, want die antichris moet nog verskyn. In sy eerste brief skryf Johannes: “Kinders, dit is die laaste uur. Julle het gehoor dat daar ‘n antichris kom; en daar is nou reeds baie antichriste. Daaruit weet ons dat dit die laaste uur is.” (1 Johannes 2 vers 18) Die vroeë Christene en Johannes, die geliefde dissipel van die Here, was oortuig dat die wederkoms in hulle tyd om die draai was! Die boek Openbaring, wat die meeste deur Christene ge(mis)bruik word om die datum en wyse van die wederkoms te voorspel, eindig met die woorde: “Hy wat dit alles getuig, sê: “Ja, Ek kom gou!” (Openbaring 20 vers 22) Wanneer gaan Christene nou aanvaar dat daar nie `n verborge kode in die Bybel is waarvolgens die datum en wyse van die wederkoms uitgewerk kan word nie? Christene behoort hul energie te gebruik om die liefdesgebod uit te leef. In plaas daarvan om te soek na verse wat die wederkoms voorspel, moet ons soek na voete om te was. Die wederkoms was nog altyd naby en wanneer die Here die dag kom, mag Hy ons eerder kry waar ons besig is om water te gee aan iemand wat dors is, as om te redeneer oor die datum en wyse van die koms van Hom wat in elk geval by ons is! Mooi naweek.

Thank you!

Desiree van der Walt, DA Leader in Limpopo, writes: On behalf of the Democratic Alliance, my sincere gratitude to every citizen who used their democratic right to cast their vote on election day. To those who supported the DA in particular, thank you for the trust showed for the DA. 2011 election is indeed the start for us towards the 2014 election. In Tzaneen the DA made history: we also took Ward 14 from the ANC. This is a first for any opposition party to win two wards in Tzaneen since the DA was established in 2000. We now have two ward councillors: Ward 15: Rene Pohl and Ward 14: Anza Jansen van Vuuren. We also have three PR councillors: Mavis Sabela, Luke Perkins and Margo McNeil. In Giyani the DA for the first time have two councillors. In Phalaborwa we retained our ward with Kathy Otto and took another ward in town back from the ANC with Sybrandt de Beer. The support also gave us two PR councillors. In Maruleng (Hoedspruit) the DA took back the town ward from the ANC with Christine du Preez (this ward in 2006 went to the ANC with nine votes because the FF+

These achievements were made possible because of the trust, you the voters, had in the Democratic Alliance. Thank you!

Dit was lekker split the votes) and we have Erens Shai as our PR councillor. In Letaba (Modjadjiskloof) we have one PR councillor, Mati Willemse, and unfortunately lost a second seat. In the Mopani District Municipality (40%) we have Pierre Cronje. This number will increase as the different municipalities elect their representatives to the MDM at their first inauguration meetings. In Limpopo the DA achieved the following: * We grew with 1,4% from the 2006 local elections, and with almost 3% from the 2009 national elections; * We also increased our total number of councillors from 66 to 79; * We took four wards from the ANC: Makhado, Tzaneen, Maruleng and Phalaborwa; * We took the last two wards from the FF+ in Modimolle and Mookgopong. The DA is committed to clean governance; service delivery to all the communities, especially the poor; and sustainable infrastructure.

Anton Stoltz van Arborpark, Tzaneen, skryf: Mensig! Was dit darem nou nie al te lekker om onse kruisies te kon trek en om daai dotjie op onse duimpies pansella te kon kry nie. Wonnerlik. Wat baie bygedra het tot die paartie was die wete dat skierlik is ál (wel meeste) van daai dongas en seekoeie se gate in onse strate toegelap soos wafferse lappieskomberse. Om nie eens te praat van die verkeerdeligte wat ook terstonds weer aan’t werke is nie. Sekerlik was ek nie die enigste wat ge-sepraais was nie! Met al die skierlike aksie so kort voor die minstepale verkiessing het ek nou mos gewonder. Dalkies moet ons vir vader Jakob en Ant Zil en al hul tjommies aanbeveel dat ons so elke tweede jaar so ‘n verkniessing beleef. Dink net watse paartie dít sal wees! Dit sal sommer ook die minstepaliteite genoeg tyd gee om te herstel van al die toestoppery van daai koeie se gate en dongas wat so netjies gelap is. Of hoe dink myse mede-inbewonders nou? Groetnis.

Ontstoke jagters en grondeienaars moes reeds sedert 1 Mei hul jagekspedisies opsy skuif, omdat die proklamasie van die amptelike jagseisoen nog nie in die provinsiale staatskoerant gepubliseer was nie. Die vertraging in die administratiewe proses is glo te wyte aan amptenare wat bloot laat geslaap het. Dit was meestal die plaaslike jagters en grondeienaars wat nie wildwerende omheining het nie, wat weens die vertragings gely het. Dié jagters en grondeienaars moes intussen aansoek doen vir ’n jagpermit vir die jag van wild gedurende die toe-seisoen, tot tyd en wyl die provinsie sy administratiewe tekortkomings kon uitpluis.

farms in Letsitele are enjoying the best wellness practice from their management compared with 26 other farms in the area. The Wellness Day was attended by 490 workers and managers of the Du Roi Group, who joined hands with the theme “The healing power of togetherness.” While some workers with life-threatening diseases (such as HIV and diabetes) sat under umbrellas as the day became sunnier, several were strong enough to compete in all the sports, such as a five km fun run, soccer, netball and tug of war. Among the HIV-positive people was ChoiCe’s change agent leader, Ms Rebecca Maluleke, who assisted with the organisation. “We want this spirit to go on forever,” she said. Yvonne Shipalane from Du Roi Laboratory was the fastest woman, while Doctor Maimele from Du Roi Integrated Pest Management (IPM) won the race. Master of ceremonies and IPM accountant Caroline Blessie, said: “I’m not just an em-

ployee, I’m somebody and that’s very important. That’s why my employers organised this day. They stopped everything else to be with their workers.” Schutte said the wellness day came about following four years of work with HIV workers at Du Roi after the International Organisation for Migration (IOM) contracted ChoiCe Trust to conduct research among the workers. “This company is the star and definitely the most success-

Bulletin ‘n Tamaai sinkgat so groot soos ‘n halwe rugbyveld en nagenoeg vyftig meter diep het op die terrein van die Murchison-myn by Gravelotte verskyn. Dit is op ‘n plek waar vroeër ondergronds gemyn is, en digby voerkrale van mnr Piet Warren, wat net langsaan boer. ‘n Kragopwekker het in die slag gebly, terwyl ‘n sementdam en pomphuis die insinking net-net gemis het. Die gebied is afgesper en die mynbestuur het ‘n vervoerband na die gat opgerig, om dit met mynafval te vul.

Miami se werkers staak en eis baie hoër lone Louis Roux Nagenoeg drie honderd werkers van die voedselmaatskappy Miami Canning het dié week met ‘n volskaalse staking begin en eis ‘n loonverhoging van 18%. Die stakers en die maatskappy het reeds by die Kommissie vir Konsiliasie, Mediasie en Arbitrasie (KKMA) gedraai en ‘n uitsluitstaking (lock-out strike) is reeds in werking. Die bestuurder van Miami Canning, mnr Mark Pieterse, sê die maatskappy het reeds

meer as die normaal aanvaarbare verhoging aangebied en is bereid om tien persent toe te staan, maar die werkers dring aan op ‘n 18% verhoging. Die fabriek het tot stilstand gekom, maar gelukkig het hulle gesorg vir ‘n stewige voorraad en daar behoort nie gou tekorte vir bestellings te wees nie. Daar word ook gekyk na alternatiewe werkers om die produksie in die stakingtyd wat voorlê voort te sit.

Mametja said that feasibility studies to identify development potential for tourism attractions have already been done. The GTM is also in the process of developing village tourism she added.

Man electrocuted

Beaunice Machitela A man was allegedly electrocuted in Mbamba Mencies outside Tzaneen, while he was illegally connecting electricity. The man was reportedly thrown into the air by the shock. He was rushed to the

Letaba Hospital in a bakkie. Warnings from Eskom of the dangers that come with illegally connecting electricity seem to have no impact on electricity thieves. People in the villages say they resort to illegally connecting

electricity from the power lines because they have no alternative.

Serving our community

Two from SA Police awarded for service During a police parade in Tzaneen on Wednesday the recipients of the Bulletin and Coke Light Service Excellence Awards for April received their trophies and certificates. Sgt Mabuza and Const Seepe were nominated after they had stepped in to help control a traffic mess over the Easter Weekend, when hitch-hikers caused havoc on the R71 and the entrance to the Sasol Service Station opposite the Medi-Clinic. They even chased after a motorist who refused to stop. He was caught and fined.

What is of interest is that const Seepe is a reservist. In the photo at the top of the page (right) they are flanked by Ms Iselle Rossouw, special events manager of Coca-Cola Fortune (our co-sponsor of the Service Excellence Awards), and Jean Aucamp, editor of the Bulletin. The special award acknowledgeing people for outstanding community service is growing in popularity and every month more people are being nominated. Nominations for May wil close on Tuesday 31 May.

Hy het in November 2010 ‘n foto van weerlig oor Tzaneen Dam geneem en die foto vir die kompetisie ingestuur. Hy het $100 dollar gewen en deurgedring na die internasionale vlak van die kompetisie, waar sy foto met foto’s uit Ierland, Rusland, die VSA, die VK, Hong Kong, Jamaika, Brasilië, Kanada, China, Hongarye en Kenia gaan meeding.

Nie minder nie as 42 inheemse bome, wat Van Wykshout, Essenhout, Nyala en Kremetart insluit, is deur Treefactor aan die Laerskool Dr Annecke se boomplant-projek geskenk. Sodra die boompies volwasse is sal die leerlinge die saad oes en weer aan Treefactor skenk, om nuwe boompies te kweek. Die doel van die projek is om ‘n gesindheid vir die waardering en bewaring van bome asook die insameling van inligting te bevorder. Hier staan van die leerlinge nadat hulle ‘n boompie geplant het. Elke klas het twee boompies gekry, wat hulle “aangeneem” het. As die leerlinge in gr 7 kom, moet hulle die boompies weer aan die nuwe gr 1’s oorhandig.

Ondersteuning van die gemeenskap, ‘n passie vir ander en goeie beplanning het verseker dat Relay For Life 2010 so ‘n groot sukses was. CANSA was veral opgewonde oor die groot aantal spanne en gemeenskapsbetrokkenheid, goeie organisering en bemarking van die Tzaneen Relay. Meer as 100 spanne het deelgeneem en meer as R90 000 is

ingesamel. Die 2010 organiseerders nooi enige belangstellendes uit om as vrywilligers betrokke te raak by die organisering van die 2011 Relay. Verskeie portefeuljes is beskikbaar om te verseker dat die beplanning eweredig verdeel word. Geen vorige ondervinding of kwalifikasie word benodig nie, net ‘n goeie dosis passie word gevra. Belangstellendes kan Juanine Jackson kontak by ptcash@tiscali.co.za of 082 576 5716. 2011 se Relay For Life word beplan vir 11 November.

Comrades, hier kom die Tzaneeners ’n Groep van 24 atlete van Tzaneen het verlede week bymekaar gekom om vir oulaas reëlings te tref en gesellig saam te kuier, voordat hulle Sondag die Comrades-marathon aandurf. Almal is lede van die Tzaneen Marathonklub, met die uitsondering van drie wat van Ofcolaco is en een wat van Le’Club is. Nege van die groep, Freek Armstrong, Greta Bekker (van Le’Club), Alan Hart, Edward Mathebula, Vida Serfontein, Sydney Swart, Johan Swart, Johan Thiart en Debie Tyler, neem Sondag aan hul eerste Comrades deel. Christie Bouwer het die meeste Comradesmarathons agter die rug, naamlik 23. Hy is 56 jaar oud, maar hy is nie die oudste van die groep nie. Die 63-jarige Chris Noel van Ofcolaco is die oudste en het agtien Comradesmarathons afgelê. Die aantal inskrywings in vanjaar se marathon is tot 18 000 beperk en die maksimum toegelate inskrywings is reeds in November 2010 bereik. Die marathon het ook verlede jaar die Guinness Book of Records gehaal, toe dit as die grootste ultramarathon in die wêreld geklasifiseer is en 14 343 deelnemers dit voor die twaalf ure-afsnytyd voltooi het. Die Comrades is vanjaar ’n “op-wedloop” vanaf Durban na Pietermaritzburg oor 86,96 km en begin 05:30 voor die stadsaal en eindig by The Cricket Oval in Pietermaritzburg.

BELOW: Lori Hyde and Fezika Ntswanisi were selected for the u.18A team and Mpho Sethole were selected for the u.18B team.

Agter staan Chris Noel (18 Comrades afgelê), Christiani van Niekerk (vier), Sam Nkuna (nege), Freek Armstrong, Cor van Heyningen (tien), Timothy Nkuna (agt), Johan Thiart, Matome Rakhwale (twee) en Buks Bovill (twee). In die middel is Emmelize Prinsloo (een), Christie Bouwer (23), Karin Armstrong (twee), Fouche Wiid (elf), Hanli Bovill (een), Mientjie Els (ses) en Modjadji Mathipa (een). Voor sit Greta Bekker, Hanli Pretorius (twee), Riebert Pretorius (agt), Vida Serfontein, Kiewiet Ecroignard (nege) en Sydney Swart. Op die inlasse is Debie Tyler en Claire Joubert (twee).

Freek is langasems se inspirasie Freek Armstrong van Tzaneen en sy vrou Karin gaan ook Sondag aan die Comrades-marathon deelneem. Freek ondersteun sy vrou al jare lank, maar het eers onlangs self begin deelneem. Met sy gewig op 141 kg was hy nie baie aktief nie, maar die lus om te hardloop het hom beetgepak. Hy het agt maande gelede ’n fiets gekoop, maar besef hy wil eintlik aan die Comrades deelneem. ’n Lang pad van oefen en voorbereiding het voorgelê en volgens gesoute hardlopers sou dit ten minste twee jaar duur. Hy het ingeklim en gereeld en getrou deelgeneem. Die klub se oefenlopies was vir hom ’n plesier en was hy gemotiveerd. Hy kon nie ophou raad vra nie en

Three of Stanford Lake College’s horse-riders, Marelize Vermeulen, Mika Schoeman and Tamaryn Burns competed in the second qualifying round of the Limpopo championships recently. Marelize achieved one win, a second place and two fourth places. Tamaryn took one win and two third places. Even though Mika Schoeman did not win a prize, she valued the experience.

This week’s fitness tip Ettienne van Wyngaardt (Fitness specialist)

The best way to treat an injury is to use the RICE method (rest, ice, compression, elevation) as first aid for joint and muscle injuries. Note that it’s ice, not heat, for the first 48 hours, or for as long as swelling is present, that ice is needed.

Even if you have an injury like a bad ankle sprain that requires medical attention, put ice on it right away. That will slow down the swelling. Then you should see a doctor as soon as possible.

gehaal nie. Die Tzaneen Ultra-marathon was sy laaste kans en het hy die 50 km aangepak, net om weer netnet nie die afsnytyd te haal nie. ’n Week later het hy ’n merkwaardige prestasie behaal, toe hy nog ’n ultra-marathon aanpak. Hy het aan die Loskopdam-marathon gaan deelneem en wrintiewaar gekwalifiseer om aan die Comrades deel te neem. Freek het intussen meer as 35 kg verloor en word dit as merkwaardig beskou wat hy in so ’n kort periode bereik het. Volgens sy mede-klublede is hy ’n inspirasie en sal hy Sondag ’n besondere prestasie behaal deurdat hy bloot net deelneem.
