Yet another lovely homestead gutted by flames

Knoeiwerk Die boer ruil sy John Deere-trekker wat altoos in bome vasry, in op ‘n Massey Ferguson maar verseg om die trekkerdrywer te vervang. Dit is die status van die regering se dreigemente met die Groenskrif en om die Grondwet vir grondhervorming te verander, sê AgriSA oor die jongste uitlatings van mnr Gugile Nkwinti, die minister van landelike ontwikkeling en grondsake. “Dit het as ‘n totale skok gekom, omdat AgriSA se gesprek met die regering sedert Nkwinti se oorname van De Jager die departement geskoei was op die grondslag dat die Grondwet die vertrekpunt sou bly,” sê AgriSA se adjunk-president, dr Theo de Jager. Hy sê die minister se uitlating bring die integriteit van die gesprek tussen die regering en AgriSA in die gedrang, want AgriSA kan geen samewerking

gee as billike kompensasie op grondoordrag nie gewaarborg is nie. De Jager sê ook dit is die groot verskil tussen SuidAfrika en Zimbabwe wat grondkwessies betref. Die rede hoekom daar so ‘n groot uitvloei van beleggings uit SA is, is omdat die regering se houding jeens die Grondwet onder verdenking is. “Dit is vir SA boere veel makliker om belange en finansiering in lande soos Mosambiek en die Kongo te kry, as hier.” Hy sê die rede vir die mislukking van die grondhervormingsplan het niks te make met die Grondwet nie. “Dit gaan oor korrupsie en die onbevoegdheid van amptenare wat dit in ‘n geknoei omgeskep het.” Inmiddels sê die voorsitter Enslin van AgriLetaba, mnr Dries Enslin, die aankondiging skok in die sin dat die Grondwet nie gewysig kan word om by regeringsbeleid in te skakel nie. “Regeringsbeleid moet aangepas word om aan die grondwet gevolg te gee, en as die omgekeerde gebeur, het ons moeilikheid,” sê Enslin.

Oorlog @ plakkers in Tzn

Puselastraat in Tzaneen se plakkers is in sak en as nadat die polisie Vrydagoggend toegeslaan en minstens dertien plakkershutte afgebrand het. Die plakkers skuil reeds vir maande en selfs jare onder bome op die onbeboude gebied langs die rivierloop. Die meeste is werkloos en aangewese op tydelike werk by boukontrakteurs en ander informele takies. Hulle het geen was- of toiletgeriewe nie. ‘n Groot getal polisievoertuie het vroegdag op die terrein toegesak en al die strukture aan die brand gesteek. Een van die plakkers sê hy woon al ‘n hele paar jaar daar en dis die tweede keer dat sy hut deur die polisie afgebrand word. Hy gaan ‘n rukkie wag tot die stof (as) gaan lê het en dan maar weer ‘n skuiling aanmekaar timmer. Skaars ‘n honderd meter daarvandaan staan drie skuilings wat die brand misgeloop het. Hulle is goed ingerig en het elkeen ‘n florerende groentetuin, maar die terrein is net soos die afgebrande deel bemors met leë bottels en ander vullis. Dit is nie bekend hoekom hulle juis gespaar gebly het nie. — Louis Roux

The Pirie farmhouse outside Haenertsburg burnt down in the early hours of Wednesday morning. A case of arson has been opened and forensic experts from Pretoria ares at the scene to determine the cause of the fire. Police at the scene reported that an electrical fault was suspected. Owner David Pirie and his wife Josie were in Pretoria at the time of the fire and only the two

youngest children, Gavin and Michael, were in the house. It is understood that when the alarm went off the fire was already everywhere and the boys had to jump off the balcony. One of the family dogs, a Dachshund named Tyson, died in the fire and two cars exploded. Our Haenertsburg reporter says the family has lost everything, is in shock and not able to speak to the media at the time of Bulletin going to print. Dit is weer dié tyd van die jaar... die clivias blom. By Cheerio Garden in Magoebaskloof en die Atherstones in Georges Valley is ‘n blommeprag wat ‘n fees vir die oog is. Moenie vanjaar se kleurskouspel mis nie. Op die foto is ‘n pryswenner clivia van die Atherstones. Gaan kyk sommer nog dié naweek, voor dit te laat is!

Vlieg is sover nogal beïndruk met die Nuwe Seeland. Vir twee eilandjies op die buitewyke van die aardbol met meer skape as mense het hulle nogal nie te sleg gedoen nie. Vlieg is eintlik spyt dat sy reisprogram so ingewikkeld is. Dit sou baie makliker gewees het om die hele ses weke net hier in Auckland se hawe deur te bring. Dit is mos al van die vroegste tye af bekend dat daar meer op ‘n hawe aangaan as bloot die oplaai en aflaai van vrag op skepe. Menige uitgehongerde matrose sal daarvan kan getuig. Hier in Auckland s’n het hulle ook soos in ander wêreldstede die hawe so ‘n bietjie opgedollie. Hier noem hulle dit die White Cloud. Hier kan jy die rugby volg op enige grootte televisieskerm en koop net wat jou hart begeer. En, so hoor Vlieg, is daar ook genoeg voorsien vir uitgehongerde matrose. Vlieg wil nou nie graag hê dat daar ‘n rassestorm om sy kop losbars as hy tuiskom nie, maar dit was die naweek nogal opmerklik hoe die Ingelse soveel beter gespeel het in hulle wit truie as die vorige week in die swartes. Vlieg is ook baie bly vir die Walliesers dat hulle hierdie naweek op die veld en op die telbord kon wen. Dis darem sleg as ‘n ou die game wen, maar die telbord sê iets anders.

Die stemlokaal is by Sanloo Gastehuis in Feesstraat, agter die NG Kerk Wolkberg. Die stembusse open om 07:00 en sluit om 21:00. Alle Afrikaners, Boere, Boere-Afrikaners wat reeds geregistreer het om op die kieserslys te verskyn, word gevra om te kom stem. Bring ID of paspoort of rybewys saam. ‘n Belangrike vergunning is ook gemaak: Afrikaners wat nog nie kon registreer om op die kieserslys te kom nie, of nou in die laat uur eers van die verkiesing verneem het, kan more kom registreer en dan ook stem. Let op dat daar in die Noord-Laeveld drie stemlokale is, naamlik Tzaneen, Phalaborwa en Hoedspruit. Voornemende kiesers kan by enige van die drie gaan stem, en is nie gebonde aan hul tuis-stemdistrik nie. Tewens, Afrikanerkiesers kan by enige ander volkstemlokaal in die land stem, mits sodanige dorp met die Volksraad-verkiesingkommissie saamgewerk en ‘n

Verskeie plekke in Tzaneen het die afgelope tyd weer onder kabeldiewe deurgeloop en sit sonder telefoonverbindings. Die GTM se beheersentrum waar navraag oor kragonderbrekings 24 uur per dag beantwoord word, het ook deurgeloop. Die landlynnommers is dus tydelik buite werking, maar daar is ook twee selnommers waar foute aangemeld kan word, naamlik 082 679 0720 en 082 679 0794. Die landlynnommers is 015 307 8190 en 015 307 4356 (vir wanneer die Telkomlyne herstel is). Bewaar dié nommers en meld enige elektrisiteitsprobleme aan, enige tyd van die dag of nag. Die Hoërskool Ben Vorster se matriekafskeid word volgende Donderdagaand (29 September) gehou. Matrikulante sal van 17:00 af by die saal aankom. Toeskouers is welkom, maar slegs matriekouers of voogde met toegangskaartjies sal toegelaat word om op die terrein te parkeer en by die saal in te kom. Alle ander toeskouers moet buite die terrein parkeer.

Na die Bokke se vertoning is Vlieg steeds versigtig optimisties oor hul kanse op welslae na die groepwedstryde, hoofsaaklik omdat daar te min van die Goue Leeus se spelers in die span is. Vlieg dink nie die Suidsee-eilanders het nog tot hul volle potensiaal gespeel nie. Waarvan Vlieg wel seker is, is dat hulle definitief goed ingelê het in die verneukmuskaat. Hul heelagter is selfs groter as Bakkies. Vlieg wonder of hulle pa’s dit ook sal ontken as hulle dalk uitgevang word. Vlieg dink dat ons die regter-oorkanste hoek nou maar kan herdoop na die JP Petersen-hoek, veral as ons teen Fidji speel. Verder dink Vlieg dat Schalkie sy beste posisie op slot gevind het — dit sal nou wees as iemand dit sluit en die sleutel weggooi. Die Bokke behoort nog beter te doen as iemand net vir Fourie du Preez, Pierre Stompspies en Jacques Fourie sal herinner dat hulle op ‘n rugbyveld is, en nie by ‘n charismatiese erediens nie. Hulle kan maar hulle arms laat sak en die ref-werk vir die ref los. Ag siestog, dan is dit natuurlik nie vir Vlieg baie jammer dat arme ou Mathildatjie skoon haar walspassies vergeet het nie. Sy doen nou die dodemars! Give those men a Guinness!

Werk aan die nuwe Lifestyle-winkelsentrum in Tzaneen vorder fluks en teen 1 Desember behoort die onderskeie winkels reeds fluks sake te kan doen. Die terreinwerk is omvattend en nog baie sal in die volgende vyf weke gedoen word om die padnetwerk op en om die terrein af te handel. Dié werk sluit veranderings aan die R71 in, sowel as toegangspaaie na onder meer die Tzaneen MediClinic.

Malaria not yet a problem With summer approaching there is growing concern about malaria. The Tzaneen Malaria Institute‘s Mr Phillip Kruger said this week that they would provide information on the status of Malaria in the area in about a month. He said that they needed to correspond with the provincial department of health with regard to their findings and that it is still early days. Once the rainy season has started, they will be in a better position to comment on the situation. — Beaunice Mnisi

Safety MEC visits the GLM area

The MEC for Safety, Security and Liaison, Mr George Phadagi, visited the Mokwakwaila community in Ga-Mokwakwaila in the Greater Letaba Local Municipality’s jurisdiction earlier this week. The purpose of the stakeholder consultative session is to afford communities an opportunity to be part of the fight against crime by knowing the state of crime in their areas. Stakeholders also got the opportunity to express their views about the police and their work. Seen here are Col Monyela,

the officer commanding of Bolobedu SAPS, Maj-genl Mathebula, the Tzaneen cluster

He continued to say that “in the province there has been a remarkable decline of crimes committed in the following categories: “Contact crimes: (murder: down by 16,4%; attempted murder: down by 4,3%; sexual crimes: down by 3,1%) • Contact related crimes • Property related crimes • Crimes heavily dependent on police action for detection • Other serious crimes, e.g. shoplifting. “Marginal increases have been recorded in the following categories: Stock theft • Driving under the influence of alcohol/drugs • Commercial crimes • Truck hijackings • Robbery at nonresidential premises • Neglect and ill-treatment of children. “Our low crime figures are as a result of the following interventions: Better policing which manifests itself in more arrests, more detection, more convictions; Better training of the police; Efficiencies in the criminal justice system; Involvement of society in the fight against crime; Moral regeneration of the South African society. “The statistics say that crime can be defeated and that the police are doing their work. If we work together we can kick crime out of our communities. “We thank the police, communities and all stakeholders for maintaining Limpopo’s pole position as the province of peace,” Phagadi said.

Taps as empty as promises

Die ATKV se Letaba-tak het weer onlangs ‘n kompetisie gehou om die petroljoggie(s) wat die beste Afrikaans praat, te vereer. Mnr Aubrey Mabitsela van Simpson Motors in Tzaneen was een van die wenners. Hier is hy saam met sy werkgewer, mnr Eddie Simpson, en me Aneen de Meyer, ‘n lid van die ATKV-tak se bestuur.

Almost seven years after completion of the Nandoni Dam, residents of Limpopo are yet to benefit from this R2,1 billion project, with their taps remaining as empty as government’s promises. During a visit by the National Council of Provinces (NCOP) to Vhembe last week, yet another promise was made to deliver water, with Mr Alson Matukane, the Director of Water Affairs in Limpopo, announcing that an amount of R700 million has been put aside to address the challenges at Nandoni. The biggest challenge facing government at this stage is the completion of the pipeline network meant for getting the water to the people. This process, however, is marred by prolonged legal battles between governments and the appointed contractor (as reported in Bulletin a number of times). Matukane said it had come to their attention that the pipes that were used in the project were of poor quality and that the department was in the process of prosecuting the previous contractor for poor workmanship in order to recoup the funds. He said, however, that the litigation was taking too long and this was the reason why additional funds were made available to erect parallel pipes, so as to speed up the provision of water in the area. “We have approached the treasury, and funds have

been made available. We are now in the process of appointing a new contractor and we are hopeful that by March 2012 residents of this area will be using water from Nandoni,” said Matukane. Not only the Vhembe District Municipality is embroiled in legal battles with regard to the completion of the much-needed pipeline, but also the Mopani District Municipality (MDM). A costly legal battle between the MDM and two companies, who initially tendered for the building of the pipeline between Nandoni and the Nsami Dam (Giyani), is currently raging in the Constitutional Court. The MDM awarded the R200 million tender to Tlong Re Yeng Trading & Projects in November last year. The court has since granted Cycad Pipelines and Esorfranki Pipelines an interdict against the MDM from continuing with the construction of the pipeline. This after the two companies questioned the processes followed by the MDM in awarding the tender to Tlong Re Yeng. Cycad and Esofranki’s bids were respectively R40 milion and R10 million less than that of Tlong Re Yeng. A lawyer, who has a vested interest in the case, said “this will cost the MDM” and added that the serious allegations about the MDM’s handling of the tender could also “bite the MDM”. — LiN News / Zoutpansberger

Premier confronted about water, jobs and corruption If you don’t have a man to accompany you to the tap to fetch water you can’t go there alone as a woman, Ms Sara Mathonsi of Matiko-xikaya village in Phalaborwa recently told Limpopo Premier Cassel Mathale. He was on a door-to-door visit in the area to find out how the community rated government services, and also to hear their complaints. Mathonsi and others told Mathale that they have only one water tap in the area, which services the whole community in the village and that on top of it, the tap is very far from them. “Some women RIGHT: Premier Cassel Mathale listens to the complaints of residents during his visit.

wake their men at 03:00 to accompany them to the tap to avoid queues. If you don’t have a man to accompany you to the tap at three in the morning, you’re doomed, because you can’t go there alone at night,” added Ms Eva Mathebula. Another issue that the premier was confronted with was unemployment. He was told that municipalities advertise jobs that they already have people

ear-marked for and that the youth is tired of corruption. “It seems to me that corruption is legal because people do as they wish and nothing happens,” said Mr Lesley Mongwe, who was speaking on behalf of the youth . The premier ordered that at least two water pipes are installed in the area within a month. He promised to stamp out corruption, and warned that anyone found to be corrupt would be dealt with. — Orlando Chauke, Giyani

Limpopo is safest province Crime, the fight against it and its prevention, is one of the five government priority areas. The latest statistics paint a positive picture of the government’s fight against crime. Over many years Limpopo has been regarded as a province of peace, an oasis where troubled souls can find peace. In Limpopo people have found a way to exist and work together in peace and harmony. Many people fear that we will one day lose our place of honour as the most safe and peaceful of the nine provinces. To date these fears have not been realized, even after the release of the 2010/2011 National Crime Statistics — Limpopo remains the haven of peace where lives and property are safe and secure. In our province there has been a remarkable decline of crimes committed in a number of categories. We are trailing behind the other eight provinces in all but one crime category. This state of affairs didn’t come about because of the kindness of criminals. Our crime figures are low because of conscious and concerted interventions on the part of stakeholders in the fight against crime. The decline in criminal occurrences is not gifted to us like the biblical manna from heaven. Limpopo is blessed to be the least crime ravaged of the nine provinces. However, nobody should sit back and bask in the glory of these figures as if crime has been uprooted from our communities. Let us stand and work together to assit the police in making Limpopo too hot and too small for criminals. And let us salute our local police for a job well done!

Piesangfees Regina Ingram van Tzaneen skryf: Met betrekking tot die fees vir die gemeenskap wat met liefde aangebied is deur die NGK Moeder Gemeente gee ek graag erkenning: Met dank aan die Laerskool Tzaneen vir die gebruik van hul terrein. Die voorbereiding, beplanning, koördinering en verwagting: Gerrit & Hantie Aggenbach (sy sterkte & krag altyd aan sy regterhand) het eindelose vergaderings, organisasie en verwagtings so maklik hanteer en oorgedra. Emmie en Theo Welthagen (The wind beneath her wings). Hierdie dinamiese vrou het verseker dat alle reëlings in plek is en soos van tevore het alles onder haar bekwame hande tot op die laaste minuut vlot verloop. Ons as gemeente benoem haar (nie amptelik) die Piesangfees Koningin! Elke persoon wat die taak so moeiteloos tydloos en sorgsaam gedoen en hul beste talent in die fees belê het, dankie! Die groot dag Vrydag (semi-opening) Elvis Blue open die fees. Die nederige man het almal met sy soet stem laat ontspan. Dankie ook vir ons plaaslike talent vir Vrydagaand en Saterdag se optredes, wat geensins hoef terug te staan as dit by spesiale vermaak kom nie. Julle gaan nog groot hoogtes bereik met julle Godgegewe talente!

Tongknopers Na aanleiding van die stemmery wat tans aan die gang is om Tafelberg as een van die nuwe wêreld se wonders te verklaar, vra ‘n leser dat ons tog die sewe wonders van die Ou Wêreld in korrekte skryfwyse gee. Nou ja, hier is dit: • Egiptiese groot piramides by Giza; • Hangende tuine van Babilon; • Pharos-vuurtoring in Alexandrië; • Kolossus van Rhodos; • Tempel van Artemis (Diana) by Efese, Turkye; • Mausoleum by Halikarnassus; • Zeus-standbeeld by Olimpus.

Dieselfde leser vra wat word in die sterrekunde met hoofletters geskryf. Die antwoord is: Aarde (maar slegs in sterrekundige verband — lees verder), Melkweg, planete (soos Jupiter en Mars), newels (soos Kolesaknewel), sterrebeelde (soos Noordelike Waterslang, Steenbok, Suiderkruis) en sterrestelsels (soos Groot Magellaanse

Wolk). Die res volg in kleinletters: aandster, aarde (behalwe mos in sterrekundige verband), maan, meteoor, son, witdwerg, ensovoorts. Steeds dieselfde leser (wat gevra het om anoniem te bly) wil weet wanneer is wildsbokke bulle en koeie, of ramme en ooie? Die skeiding is by die njala, waar ons praat van ‘n njalabul, maar ‘n njala-ooi. By alle wildsbokke groter as die njala, soos die koedoe en eland, word van bul en koei gepraat; en by alle bokke kleiner as die njala, soos ‘n springbok en duiker, van ‘n ram en ‘n ooi. Terloops: by eende en makoue praat ons van mannetjies en wyfies, maar by hoenders van hane en henne. Taal bly maar interessant!

Rev Ron J Reiners 083 617 8442 Agape: All consuming love, this word when referred to in a biblical sense is what God is all about and I think it is one of the best ways of describing God. It is just one of His characteristics, but I feel that this is what God is all about. He loved us even before we were born, how amazing is that? Wow! This is the God and Saviour I came to know so many years ago. Not as many try to describe Him as a God who is divorced from us, someone who lives “up there” wherever “up there” might be, a God who breathes fire and brimstone all the time. A God, who if we do not behave, will bring all types of plagues upon us. Yes it can happen if we do not turn to Him for forgiveness, if we do not follow His ways. But even then He still loves us. This characteristic of God encompasses all. It is an amazing

Ons roep almal gesamentlik uit “The Glory is Yours for ever and ever!

Excellent service Nile and Rona McGaffin, Georges Valley,

love. Jesus rightly said: “I give you a new commandment; that you love one another just as I have loved you”. Wow! again, but we just do not do this we love conditionally. How can we love someone who has done us harm? Think about it and imagine if God was like this. We do harm to Him all the time, we forget to give Him thanks for the little things, and only call upon Him in times of trouble. Look at a rainbow and see the many colours each of them bring us a message of joy and love. This is how God sees us no matter who are what we are, rich, poor , old young, black, white or mixed colours. He also loves people of different religions even those who do not accept Him. Are we willing to extend this same love to our fellow humans or will we still love conditionally? God Bless You All

Cooperate, but be cautious With the Census 2011 process beginning, people are advised to be cooperative, but cautious, so as not to become a victim of fraud or identity theft. The first phase of the Census is completed where workers verified the addresses of households across the country. Eventually, more than 140,000 workers will count every person in South Africa (start date 10 October) and will gather information about every person living at each address including name, age, gender, race, and other relevant data. The big question is: how do you tell the difference between a Census worker and a con artist? 1. If a Census worker knocks on your door, they will have a badge, a handheld device, a Census Bureau canvas bag, and a confidentiality notice.

Highway robbery syndicate smashed: Zimbabwean police at Beit Bridge smashed a wellorganised highway robbery syndicate when they arrested three suspects along the Beit BridgeMasvingo road and recovered stolen goods worth thousands of US dollars. The suspects targeted mainly foreign motorists passing through the border. The three were arrested while they were in the act of stealing goods from a SA truck. Police recovered six stolen cell phones, an undisclosed amount of cash and knives. — LiN News/Limpopo Mirror Daar’s ’n skelm in jou swartsak: Voornemende rowers skuil dees dae in swart vul lis sak ke terwyl hulle wag om toe te slaan.

2. Ask to see their identification and their badge before answering their questions. 3. However, you should never invite anyone you don’t know into your home. 4. Census workers are currently only knocking on doors to verify address information. 5. Do not give your identity number, credit card or banking information to anyone, even if they claim they need it for the Census. • Remember, no matter what they ask, you really only need to tell them how many people live at your address. 6. While the Census Bureau might ask for basic financial information, such as a salary range, you don’t have to answer anything at all about your financial situation. The Census Bureau will not ask for bank account, or credit card numbers, nor will employees solicit donations. Any one asking for that information is not with the Census Bureau.

ANC corps came to a head when councillors brought a surprise motion to end municipal manager William Kekana’s contract, and replace him with the head of corporate support services M H Thobejane. Thobejane was reinstated earlier this year after he had been suspended in November last year. His suspension followed guilty verdicts by a disciplinary committee on 26 charges ranging from fraud and theft to dishonesty and misbehaviour. Criminal charges have also been brought against him and he was recently arrested and appeared in court. The councillors ignored four refusals by the Labour Court to have Thobejane’s suspension overturned. Now they are rooting for him to be the municipal manager. The DA asked that the dossiers containing all evidence and allegations against both Kekana and Thobejane be handed to the Hawks and the Public Protector for investigation. The Exco was also asked to report the situation to the MEC for local government and housing, Mr Soviet Lekganyane. — LiN News/Noordelike Nuus

No Acorn worker should approach you saying he/she is with the Census Bureau. Eventually, Census workers may contact you by telephone, mail, or in person at home. However, the Census Bureau will not contact you by e-mail, so be on the lookout for e-mail scams impersonating the Census. Never click on a link or open any attachments in an e-mail that are supposedly from the Census Bureau.

Churches asked to practice culture

Reports & photos by Orlando Chauke

Healers, know your limits The chairman of traditional healers in Mopani, Mr Frank Chauke, popularly known as FrankXikhavele, warned other traditional healers against waiting too long with patients that they know they can’t treat. He spoke during a three-day annual conference by traditional healers held at N’wamatatani village, Giyani. The conference, attended by people from as far as Cape Town, is aimed at encouraging members to share ideas and expertise on how to heal certain diseases, as well as addressing challenges that they might have encountered during the course of the year. “Our aim is not only to get money but to heal people as well,” he said. “If you can’t treat certain disease, just pass the patient over to those that can.”

Xikhavele said there are certain diseases that can’t be cured by traditional healers, and that these diseases should be passed over to modern doctors “as soon as detected to save the life of a patient.” Asked on the issue of some traditional healers that are said to bewitch people or give clients concoction meant to harm other people, Xikhavele said “those are not true healers, but individuals driven by greed to make money.” “Naturally for a true healer the Gods would be angry with you, and probably take away your power to heal if you commit things like that,” he said. “Normally the process of qualifying a healer takes long, sometimes years before completed – but nowadays people train for few weeks and come back claiming to be healers,” he said.

An example of solar heating system on a roof

Women in Va-Tsonga cultural dress are seen here selling cultural wares during the launch of the Ndhavuko na Vutshila cultural village in Giyani.

Go for solar; it’s easy A do-it-yourself (DIY) solar energy system is a key to uplifting millions of poor South Africans battling to cope with the high price for electricity. According to Mr Johan Weideman of Modimolle who has discovered the benefit of using the self-made solar system to supplement his electrical energy, “it’s easy and cost effective” to construct since it can be constructed from old materials. Weideman has been using a self-made solar heating system for more than a year now. “All you need is a fitting called U-connector. The system can be built with new or old waterpipes and the U-connector.” The pipe is cut into several

equal lengths, after which the U-connector is fitted at the end of each pipe to connect them to form parallel lengths. “After that, you install a drum of water at the end of the system, a tap on the other end, and then put it on the roof to get the sun’s exposure — and if more water is needed, just add pipes.” According to Weideman the heating system can also be connected to a geyser, to pre-heat the water up to 30°C. He said the system would help to reduce the energy bill, as well as to create jobs for people who would specialise in installing it. “This will also curb air pollution, since people would no longer have to make fires to heat water,” he said.

The ANC’s general secretary in Limpopo, Mr Joe Maswanganyi, says cultural practices and dressing should not only be seen during cultural events. “It should be a trend seen on a daily basis, including churches services.” Maswanganyi was speaking during the launch of Ndhavuko na Vutshila cultural village in Giyani. According to him “churches and departments should have a day dedicated to cultural dressing, so that youth will grow up knowing their culture and where they come from.” “In some churches cultural dressing is associated with unholiness — we must make sure that leaders and pastors take a lead in cultural practices to change the mind-set that people have about our culture,” he said. In support of Maswanganyi’s statement, Giyani mayor Pat Hlungwani said people nowadays no longer love culture as they used to in the past. He said the challenge is that “most people want free things, and only support culture when it is dished out to them for free”. He also urged business people to support culture wherever possible. Ndhavuko na Vutshila cultural village was initiated by Howard Khosa and other stake holders to establish “an area that reflects the true identity of va-Tsonga people.” It is said to officially open soon. According to Khosa, the project is a none profit organisation.

IT help for Famsa ‘n Bielie van ‘n padstal pronk deesdae langs die Georges Valley-pad, skaars twee kilometer buite Tzaneen, met produkte wat wissel van vars vrugte en groente tot skeermeslemmetjies. Mamma Mia is ‘n trotse toevoeging tot dié roete, wat deesdae heelwat meer verkeer as in die verlede dra. Die padstal is die eiendom van Anton en Klippe Venter. Dit is gebou op ‘n hoewe Klippe waar Klippe sedert 2004

groente suksesvol in tonnels verbou, terwyl Anton sy eie onderneming in Tzaneen bedryf. Die Venters het lankal aan ‘n padstal begin beplan, maar besef dat ‘n vroetelwinkel soos dié lankal vir die Georges Valley-verkeer geskik is. Hul verskeidenheid is groot: vars groente en vrugte, neute, konfyte, ‘n verskeidenheid lekkernye, koeldrank, ys en hout. Vars brood en melk is daagliks Anton beskikbaar en besoekers kan ook tussen kuriositeite rondsnuffel. “Ons lê klem op plaaslike produkte wat deur produsente in die omgewing verskaf word, terwyl items eie aan die omgewing ook uitstalvoorkeur sal geniet,” sê Klippe. Hulle beplan ook ‘n kwekery langs die padstal, om klante ‘n groter keuse te bied en elke stop die moeite werd te maak. Mamma Mia is sewe dae per week oop, van 08:00 tot 17:00.

‘Development going ahead whether they want it or not’ — Hosi Hosi Siyandhani Famanda Chavalala, of Siyandhani village, Giyani, vowed to go ahead and bring development in his village and Giyani as a whole, despite his disagreement with the Ngove royal family over chieftaincy. This comes after a project worth R10,9 million and other developments were apparently stopped by Ngove royal family, arguing that Chavalala is not a chief in the village but a headman, therefore has no right to bring development without consulting them. When interviewed, Ngove’s royal family spokesperson Michael Mabunda said the royal family was not blocking any development, but they want “an application letter from whoever wants to start a development in the village,” since it falls under Ngove’s tribal office. The statement was later disputed by Chavalala who claimed that he was the rightful chief in the village and not just a mere headman as the royal family alleged. Speaking during the cultural event held recently in Giyani, attended by ANC general secretary in the province Joe Maswanganyi, Giyani mayor Pat Hlungwani and many other stake holders, Chavalala revealed that the blocked projects were now up again. In a veil snub of Ngove royal family, Chavalala said “want it or not ,Giyani will develop — even if you go to the newspapers to point fingers we will not stop. “By the thirtieth of this month the construction of town houses, a

mall, taxi rank and modern transport starts,” he said, assuring the Giyani mayor of cooperation. “I had a talk with some business people recently — what they’re bringing here will turn Giyani into something else,” he said. Chavalala also lashed out at the small faction in his village that are positioning themselves as suitors to share the R10,9 million that the village received as part of a land restitution claim, saying the money is meant for development. “You must just forget this sharing idea because that will never happen — that money is meant for development which will benefit all of us, not just few individuals,” he said. This latest development is seen as a relief for Giyani which has suffered from years of underdevelopment due to land within it belonging to traditional leaders that are unwilling to release it. This resulted in a long list of people waiting for residential sites. Meanwhile municipal spokesperson Room Mdaka has said that the Greater Giyani Municipality has managed to secure a piece of land with one of the chiefs that surrounds the town. He said “we’re currently processing the paperwork and we hope we will achieve the same with the others.”

Are you going to remain quiet if the government push ahead with an act to silence the media?

Reports about the Letaba Hospital management’s alleged failure to respond to attacks on doctors by psychiatric patients, as published in a daily newspaper on Thursday, are unsupported. Dr Joe Muhlari, the CEO of the hospital, said on Wednesday that no report of such an incident was communicated to management. “We learned of this alleged attack when we saw the report in the newspaper”. Muhlari said there were procedures in place for the staff to relay complaints to management and these procedures were not followed. — Beaunice Mnisi

Ben Voster klop PHS in o.17-reeks eindstryd Jean Aucamp

jean@bulletin.us.com

Die jaarlikse o.17-rugbyreeks, wat vanjaar as die PHS Bosveldfees bekend staan, het Woensdagaand sy hoogtepunt bereik, toe die gasheer in die eindstryd teen Ben Vorster te staan gekom het. Ben Vorster het vroeg reeds die pap dik aangemaak en PHS op die agtervoet gehou. Hul losskakel, Marcel Scholtz, kon nie ’n voet verkeerd sit nie en het sy span gou ’n nege punt-voorsprong met twee strafdoele en een skepdoel gegee. PHS kon in die eerste helfte met slegs ’n strafdoel antwoord, voordat Scholtz net voor rustyd in die hoek gaan druk het. Hy kon egter nie met die doelskop slaag nie. PHS het na rustyd gou teruggeslaan met ’n drie en die telling op 14-10 in die Vossies se guns te staan gebring. Die twee spanne het mekaar goed opgedreun en die vuur waarDie rugbyspan van die Hoërskool Ben Vorster is vanjaar die kampioen van die PHS Bosveldfees mee die Vossies die kragmeting begin het, o.17-reeks.

vorendag gekom en vir ’n groot deel van die tweede helfte die Vossies se verdediging op die proef gestel. Hul volgehoue druk het vier minute voor die einde vrugte afgewerp, toe hulle in die hoek gaan druk het. Die doelskop was mis, maar met die telling op 15-14 het die Pieties begin fees vier. Die Vossies het van die afskop aangeval en die Pieties gedwing om uiteindelik onder die druk te swig, toe hulle voor hul pale weens ’n oortreding in die losskrum gestraf is. Scholtz het geen fout met die strafdoel begaan nie en die Vossies met 17-15 laat voor loop. Hul aanvallende spel het egter nie daar geëindig nie en met speeltyd verstreke het Scholtz hom weer voor die Pieties se pale bevind. Hy het diep teruggeval en met die skoon besit baie tyd gehad om die skepdoel hoog deur die pale te jaag. Die Vossies het die kragmeting met 20-15 gewen. Die sterk voorryman, Johan Bannink, is vir sy kraglopies en skrumwerk beloon deurdat hy as die speler van die wedstryd gekroon is.

wat naby aan die spel gebly het om alles fyn dop te hou. REGS ONDER is die onoorwonne senior seunspan.

Die dinee was op die vooraand van die @lantic 7’s-toernooi en Hendriks se praatjie was nie net inspirerend vir die rugbyseuns nie, maar het ook oor die ligter oomblikke in sy rugbyloopbaan gegaan. By hom is mnr Magnus Steyn, Merensky se hoof, en sy vrou, me Ronel Steyn. Hendriks het die balle onderteken en dit is opgeveil.

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

If you are struggling to stay motivated with your fitness program, it’s time to get yourself a personal trainer. Not only will he keep you motivated, but he will also help you achieve your goals much faster. How often do you skip gym because you just feel lazy? But if you know that your personal trainer is waiting for you, you will go.

If you can’t afford a personal trainer, try to team up with a training buddy. Just make sure he is motivated enough. A training buddy is like a business, both of you need to motivate each other and as soon as you get lazy, the other one needs to be very hard on you. Just remember that this is the only body you have, use it wisely.
