Die GTM kry nog ‘n

BLOEDNEUS Good news: The Tzaneen police’s traditional dance group will be heading to Canada next week. The group has been invited to the International Po-

lice Women’s conference in St John. The dancers will be performing their traditional dances for the big group of delegates attending the conference.

Photo: Martina Jege Caught by our cameras were Mss Annah Mashele, Const Joyce Khosa, Mss Elize du Toit (chief admin clerk), Joyce Maluleke, Flora Nkuna, Capt Jenney Meyer and Const Jessica Mathebula, doing a traditional dance.

Die Groter Tzaneen Munisipaliteit het die tweede bloedneus oor ‘n padtender binne enkele weke gekry. Benewens die feit dat die hof beslis het die betrokke tender is onreëlmatig toegeken en moet weer oorweeg word (die tenderaar aan wie dit toeken was mag nie oorweeg word nie), moet die applikante in die saak, Quality Plant Hire en Expectra 388 BK, se regskoste deur die GTM betaal word. Volledige berig hieroor op bl 3.

Abandoned 2 The Police have failed after more or less eleven months to reply to our numerous enquiries about the new Police station in Letsitele. In the meantime we have obtained information that whilst the initial contract was for R28 million, the amount has

escalated to R88 million! We have made another alarming discovery about this project and we will publish details of this latest development next week.

• Don’t miss next week’s edition of your newspaper for more info.

Good news for Tzaneen: Just say NO! That should do the trick in a protest, but to strip age. Clearly they transgressed the law, but no action was taken down and protest naked in public is beyond common decency. It is ironic that women appear to objectify themselves and doing the credibility of a valid united women’s voice untold dam-

by police that were “uncertain” about what to do. Ja-Nee... The photo was taken during Tuesday’s protest at the GTM’s head office in Tzaneen for service delivery by women from Petanenge.

“Ek het ’n probleem met die ander geslag.” So het Jaco Steyn, die beweerde “Sondagverkragter”, Maandag in die hof in Thokoza gesê. Wat dink jy moet sy straf wees, sou hy skuldig bevind word? Katrien Bruwer Sny af wat pla! Gert Van Der Westhuizen Sny af wat pla. Dit is al hoe die dinge tot ’n einde sal kom. Christine Mans Toemaar, hy gaan kry wat hom toekom in die plek van aanhouding. Goed vir hom. Petro Opperman Hul moet die DOODstraf vir hom gee. Jolene Vd Schyﬀ Kap hom af! Stukkie vir stukkie! Catherine IvesonBezuidenhout Hang him! Bianca Du Preez Hy moet tronk toe gaan sodat ander met hom kan speel. Die siek vark sal wens hy kon tyd terug draai en nooit sulke goed wou doen nie. Kitty Pretorius Koekemoer Gee hom vir “die ander geslag”. En kyk. Of eerder bid vir hom. Sy oordeelsdag sal kom. Pat Patterson Smag na die doodstraf.

Dit was nie ek nie!

Vlieg praat met die Volk en krap waar dit jeuk...

Vlieg herstel steeds van die skok oor die nuus in die daaglikse nuuspapiertjies van voorverlede week, dat die aantal meelewende gelowiges in onse ou landjie die afgelope sewe jaar met negentien persent afgeneem het. Vlieg is met absolute afgryse vervul en het sy bedenkings oor die juistheid van hierdie stuk statistiek, soos wat hy maar oor die meeste statistieke het. Vlieg het verwag dat baie meer mense intussen die kerke verlaat het! Wat vir Vlieg natuurlik geen skok was nie, was die reaksie van die kerke oor hierdie statistieke. Vlieg ken boelies. Hy het in sy lewe al deeglik met boelies te doen gehad, van maaiersdae af. Sekerlik die enkele mees algemene kenmerk van ‘n boelie is — maak nie saak wat gebeur het nie — dat dit nooit sy skuld was nie. Met hierdie kennis van boelies kon Vlieg nie anders nie as om te glimlag, toe die kerke begin wal gooi teen die oorsake van die versekulering van die land. En die groot sondaar… die wêreld! In ‘n uiters ongewone stap wil Vlieg hiermee sy geloof bely aan God die Vader, die Seun en die Heilige Gees. Ongewoon, om-

dat dit vir Vlieg ‘n persoonlike ding is. En ook sodat daar by niemand enige twyfel daaroor mag ontstaan as Vlieg verder bely dat hy ook een van die negentien persent is wat steeds gelowig is, maar nie meelewend soos per die definisie van die statistieke nie. Miskien is die wêreld die oorsaak hiervan, maar v.i. (Vlieg insiens) is die kerke soos ons hulle nou ken, ook maar wêrelds. Hierdie wêreldse kerke gaan deesdae oor fondinsamelings, feeste (voormalige basaars), gemeentekomplekse, kategeseklaskamers en dies meer. Vlieg reken die meeste van hierdie statistiese meelewende gelowiges is daar vir een van drie redes: Hulle is bang (verstaan nog steeds die Vrees van die Here verkeerd), hulle voel skuldig (meestal oor wat hulle in die week aanvang en die meelewendheid Sondae maak darem die skuldgevoelens effens minder) of hulle lewe mee uit gewoonte. Hierdie wêreldse gelowiges en die kerke waarin hulle hulself bevind, is daarvoor verantwoordelik dat gelowiges soos Vlieg nie meer kans sien vir die gemeenskap van hierdie soort heiliges nie. Wie was dit dan?

Die mense hoor

Let wel: Hulle sê nie so nie!

• Om met seuntjies te speel, is ‘n gevaarlike spel. Net soos ‘n mens nou nie wors in ‘n perdestal gaan soek nie, gaan soek jy ook nie jou ontvlugting by minderjariges nie. Die mense hoor die sakgeldjies kom darem handig te pas in, veral as die belowende jong rugbyspeler daarmee kan help om sy rugbytoekoms te verseker. Sowaar as vet... • Toe sak die aasvoëls oor die naweek toe, na ‘n sekere berig in dese skinderblaadjie. Dit gons nou behoorlik en dit is een agint op die ander wat wil weet wat nou eintlik aan

die gang is. Klink of daar maar baie skuldgevoelens is, want hoekom wil almal dan nou meer weet... • Daar is glo wyd kommer oor dinge wat skou-spelagtig verkeerd geloop het. Iemand gaan glo ekspo-neer wat verkeerd geloop het en sekere ekspo-nente is vasbeslote dat sake reggeruk moet word. Die ekspo-sisie van die gebeure sal wenkbroue laat lig, veral oor die morele kant van die saak, hoor die mense... • Die Oor wil langer vakansie hê...

GTM kry nog ‘n bloedneus

So groei Tzaneen Baie mense, en veral sakelui, praat die afgelope maande met kommer van Tzaneen se kwy-nende ekonomie en sê besigheid staan stil. Maar die teendeel blyk eerder waar te wees. Die Bulletin het die afgelope tyd ‘n opname gemaak en daaruit blyk dit dat Tzaneen se sakebedrywighede op ‘n stywe drafstap uitbrei. Die wêreld se Nommer 1-eiendomsagentskap-konsessiegroep, Century 21, het pas hier ‘n kantoor geopen. Die groot M — Macdonalds — maak gereed om hier ‘n kitskosrestaurant te open. Lannie Motors is besig met groot uitbreidings. ‘n Deftige nuwe herberg (lodge) langs die dorp sal vroeg in die nuwe jaar open en ‘n nuwe hotel

met tagtig slaapkamers is naby Lushof in aanbou. Ons het binne ‘n ommesientjie nie minder nie as 33 name neergepen, van sakeondernemings wat onlangs in Tzaneen geopen het, wat besig is om te open of wat binnekort gaan open. Drie eiendomsagente in die dorp het die afgelope week ook bevestig dat hulle met verskeie navrae besig is, van nuwe sake wat persele soek. Massmart is een van die reuse wat reeds in die omgewing belê het en PicknPay het pas plaaslik groente en vrugte begin koop, om beginnerboere te ondersteun. Ons gaan volgende week ons lys publiseer en wys dat sake in Tzaneen glad nie so vrot is nie.

Die Groter Tzaneen Munisipaliteit (GTM) het Maandag nog ‘n bloedneus op die lyf geloop, weer oor ‘n tender vir ‘n pad — dié keer Claude Wheatleystraat in Tzaneen. Die GTM bevind hulle nou op dieselfde pad as die Mopani Distriksmunisipaliett (MDM), wat die een regsgeding na die ander voer en die inwoners se swaar verdiende belastinggeld opvreet. Maandag het regter Pretorius in die Noord-Gautengse Hoëhof teen die GTM bevind in die geding tussen Quality Plant Hire (as eerste applikant), Etienne Tolmay h/a Quality Plant Hire (as tweede applikant) en Expectra 388 BK (as derde applikant) aan die een kant, en die GTM (as eerste respondent) en Makasana Construction BK (as tweede respondent) aan die ander kant. Die regter het ook beveel dat die GTM en Makasana benewens hul eie regskoste ook dié van die applikante moet betaal. Dit gaan die GTM ‘n verdere sessyferbedrag kos, terwyl die hele petalje — om ‘n kansellasiefooi aan die kontrakteur te betaal, die tenderproses te hersien en ‘n nuwe kotrakteur aan te stel — uiteindelik ver oor ‘n miljoen rand gaan kos. Die uitspraak volg op die hakke van ‘n soortgelyke saak, waarin die GTM ook op hul neus kyk oor die pad by Mahlaba Cross tussen Nkowankowa en Lenyenye, waar die tender vir die herbou van die pad onreëlmatig aan Makgetsi Construction toegeken is en MacP Construction se tender afgewys is. MacP het dit betwis en die hof het MacP gelyk gegee, weereens met ‘n kostebevel teen die GTM. Dit blyk dat dié koste vir dié twee sake, plus ander vroeëre sake die GTM tot R10 miljoen uit die sak kan jaag, wat as “fruitless and wasteful expenditure” geag sal word. Regter Pretorius het die GTM erg geroskam oor verskeie aspekte van die Claude Wheatley-tender. Hy het onder meer verwys na die feit dat notules van vergaderings van die GTM se “Bid Evaluation Committee” en die “Bid Adjudication Committee” nie bygehou is nie en/of dat notules nie aan die hof bloot gelê is nie. Oor laasgenoemde kan gevra word wat die GTM hiermee van die hof wou weghou. Die GTM het Dombo du Plessis ingenieurskonsultante aangestel om hulle oor die tenderaars vir die Claude Wheatley-projek te adviseer en die regter het bevind dat

Dombo ‘n professionele en getoetsde formule gebruik het, om die geskiktheid van die tenderaars te bepaal. Dit is egter gerieflik geïgnoreer. Verskeie onreëlmatighede is deur die regter uitgewys, soos dat voorgehou is dat ‘n kandidaat-ingenieurstegnoloog van Makasana ‘n professionele ingenieur is. Ook wat betref die toerusting van Makasana is uitgewys dat hulle nie toegerus is om die projek uit te voer nie. Dit word gesê dat die ANC se sweep in die GTM en een van die party se prominente lede die eienaar is van Makasana of ‘n belang — direk of indirek — in die beslote korporasie het. Dit blyk ook dat die voormalige munisipale bestuurder, me Conny Mametja, een of ander tyd gevra sal word om te verduidelik hoekom toegelaat is dat die tender onreëlmatig aan Makasana toegeken is, terwyl die kontrakteur taamlik ver tekort geskiet het om die projek aan te durf. In die beoordeling van die tenderaars moes punte toegeken word vir onder meer sleutelpersoneel, die beskikbaarheid van padboutoerusting, bewese ervaring ten opsigte van soortgelyke projekte en vir onderne-mings met ‘n vrou/vroue as eienaars, gestremde persone, jong mense en selfs of die kontrakteur/tenderaar in die GTM se gebied woon en sy/haar hoofkwartier hier is. Die Bulletin het verdere inligting wat daarop dui dat die GTM baie duidelik en ernstig gewaarsku is oor albei die tenders, maar dat hulle bloot ‘n senior amptenaar se waarskuwings hieroor van die tafel gevee het. “Politieke inmenging het meegebring dat alle voorskrifte en standaarde geminag en hier weer baantjies vir boeties “gepleeg” is, sê ‘n senior amptenaar wat eerstehands met die tenderproses gemoeid was. Mnr Stephan van Rensburg was die opdraggewende prokureur vir Quality Plant Hire, Etienne Tolmay en Expectra 388. • Die Bulletin sou graag vir Tzaneen se burgemeester wou vra vir kommentaar op die twee hofsake wat hulle so sleg verloor het, maar sy het nie haar telefoon geantwoord nie en dit is nie die moeite werd om deur die kanale te werk om kommentaar te kry nie. — Francois Aucamp

Die foto links bo-aan die bladsy toon waar ‘n gebou in Skirvingstraat pas gesloop is. Lannie Motors gaan ‘n nuwe vertoonkamer vir uitsoek-gebruikte motors daar oprig. LINKS: Lannie Motors is ook besig om in Grensweg ‘n nuwe motorwasgerief (aanvanklik vir motors wat gediens en dan gewas word, maar waarskynlik later ook vir die publiek), asook parkeerplek vir hul personeel en vir motors (nuut en gebruik) reg te kry. ‘n Pragtige Natalse Vyeboom op die perseel gaan behoue bly. Mnr Paul du Toit, die eienaar van

Lannie Motors, gee die versekering dat die boom nie beskadig of verwyder gaan word nie. Die foto hieronder wys hoe die omgewing om die Sasol R71 vinnig verander. Hier word voorberei vir ‘n Macdonalds. Later beoog die eienaars van die perseel ‘n kleiner leefstylsentrum. Daar kom ook ‘n brug oor die riviertjie, om Grensstraat met die R71 te verbind. Daar is nog goeie nuus vir daardie omgewing, maar die Bulletin is versoek om dit eers dig te hou (om strategiese redes). Lees volgende week verder oor sake-uitbreidings.

Plans to better fire brigade services There are plans in place to better the services of the fire brigade in Tzaneen. Following accusations after the fire in Agatha Street, Tzaneen, on 14 August, Mr Kobus Visser, the chief of the fire department of the Mopani District Municipality, has spoken out in defence of his equipment and staﬀ. Visser acknowledged that there was room for improvement. He said the fire management was busy with a training needs analysis and skills development program

which will be submitted for approval and future training activities within the fire services department. Visser mentioned that technology is changing regularly and the equipment they have needs to be updated to address operational needs. There are indications that the improvement could come soon, as the budget to address the current needs was approved for this financial year, said Visser. He aﬃrmed that there are vacant posts. “We are currently busy with recruitment and the appointment process,” Visser said. — Beaunice Mnisi beaunice@bulletin.us.com

Ds Barry van der Merwe

Vrydag 31 Augustus 2012

NG Kerk Letsitele

Die GTM

Die onlangse erge velden bosbrande in ons omgewing het weereens bewys dat waar ‘n rokie trek, is ‘n vuurtjie. Die vuurtjies het later op verskeie plekke groot vure geword. Nou is dit vandag ‘n voldonge feit dat die rokie by die GTM besig is om ‘n rookkolom te word — en dit beteken net een ding: een of ander tyd gaan die vuurtjie wat daar noodwendig is (omdat daar rook trek), ‘n verterende vuur gaan word. En wat verteer gaan word, is Tzaneen. Die laksheid waarmee die GTM deur politici bestuur word, die erge arrogansie by junior amptenare, die roekeloosheid waarmee geld bestee word — nee, gemors word — en die immorele (eintlik kriminele) wyse waarop selfbevoordeling en begunstiging beoefen en toegelaat word, moet iets mettertyd laat meegee. Ongelukkig het Tzaneen mos nie ‘n burgerlike struktuur wat daadwerklik iets doen om te sorg dat die dorp en die buitewyke verantwoordelik deur die stadsraad bestuur word nie. Ongelukkig gaan ons een oggend opstaan (soos die Egiptenare en die Siriërs en die Grieke, ensovoorts, en so meer) en uitvind die land brand of die ekonomie het ineen gestort. Ons land brand reeds; ons sien nog net nie die rook nie!

Baie dankie Yvonne du Toit, Posbus 357, Tzaneen, skryf: Na Jaco Jacobs se besoek verlede jaar aan Laerskool Tzaneen het ek nie gedink dit is moontlik om weer `n skrywer te kry wat die kinders so sou boei nie. En toe kom Fanie Viljoen. Juﬀrou Erika het leerders al weke voor die tyd biblioteek toe gestuur om navorsing oor Fanie te kom doen.

Een seuntjie het my heeltemal uitgeboul toe hy opgewonde boeke van ‘Fanie Fejool’ kom soek het. Wow, en toe kom die skrywer. By hom het hy `n sak gehad met goeters wat iets uit elke boek van hom voorgestel het. `n Botteltjie slym,`n glimmende geraamte, `n masker van `n “alien” soos die kinders dit ken. Voor in die kleinste sakkie — `n geheim wat hy vir laaste gehou het — sy skuilnaam waaronder hy liefdesverhale skryf! Baie dankie, Laerskool Tzaneen, vir dit wat julle doen om kinders aan die lees te kry. Dankie aan die ouers wat dit moontlik gemaak het om Fanie Viljoen hier te kry.

Vanoggend vroeg luister ek na die voëls in die tuin. Die tiptolle is luidrugtig, die hadidas is skaamteloos en `n spookvoël fluit in die verte. Dit herinner my toe aan een van die grootste komponiste van die twintigste eeu: die Fransman Olivier Messiaen, nou reeds twintig jaar oorlede. Messiaen het met sy notaboek in die woude gaan stap en die sang van die voëls opgeteken. Hierdie voëlsang het hy dan in sy komposisies ingewerk. “Ek is `n gelowige en daarom sing ek woorde oor God vir die wat nie geloof het nie. “Ek gee die voëlsang aan hulle wat in stede woon en dit nog nooit gehoor het nie; ek gee die ritme vir hulle wat net militêre marse of jazz ken en ek verf die kleure vir hulle wat niks sien nie.” Aldus Olivier Messiaen. 1 Messiaen se Turangalîla Simfonie is in 1948 die eerste keer uitgevoer, onder leiding van die jong Leonard Bernstein. Dié simfonie duur tagtig minute en is volgens Messiaen `n liefdeslied. Daar is musici wat beweer die Turangalîla is die beste komposisie van die twintigste eeu; `n tagtig minuteliefdeslied! By geleentheid het Jesus vir bekommerde mense gesê: “Kyk na die wilde voëls: hulle saai nie en hulle oes nie en hulle maak nie in skure bymekaar nie; julle hemelse Vader sorg vir hulle. Is julle nie baie meer werd as hulle nie?” Mat 6:28 Kom ons kyk na die voëls en luister na die voëls en hoor God se liefdeslied, en kom in pas met die ritme van die liefde en geniet die kleure van God se genade. Mooi naweek! 1

Arrogansie Anza van Vuuren, DA-raadslid vir wyk 14, Tzaneen, skryf: Graag bring ek dit onder die aandag van u lesers dat baie verbruikers van munisipale dienste — selfs al is die dienslewering dikwels in gebreke — nie rekeninge daarvoor ontvang het nie, omdat die GTM, by monde van die waarnemende munisipale bestuurder se persoonlike assistent, nie papier het om die rekenings uit te druk nie. Die DA betreur die feit dat die administrasie van die regerende party in die GTM so pateties is, en dat hul amptenare die arrogansie het om, wanneer ‘n verbruiker navraag oor sy rekening doen, aan te beveel dat die verbruiker maar die munisipaliteit moet besoek om vas te stel wat sy saldo is. Een van die inwoners wat die belaglikheid onder my aandag gebring het, is ‘n dame in

‘n rolstoel. So is daar baie verbruikers wat, om welke rede ookal, nie gedurende kantoorure die munisipaliteit kan besoek nie. Dit sal interressant wees om te hoor wie/wat vir hierdie gemors aanspreeklik gehou word!

Wie’s stadig? Roy Hurter van Tzaneen skryf per e-pos: Kyk, oorle William Shakespeare het onder meer gese: ”to thy self be true”. Dit beteken eintlik maar dat jy nie vir jouself moet lieg nie, want die ou wat uit die spieël terug na jou kyk, boeta, hy ken jou! Met dit in gedagte het ek op introspeksie besluit en tot die volgende gevolgtrekkings gekom: Ek is nie Einstein nie (behalwe met lemoenkonfyt kook, ek het lemoentoﬃe uitgevind), ek kan nie sweis nie (my pa het dit voeltjiemis genoem), ek kan nie sterk drank matig gebruik nie (daar is mos nog in die bottel, hoekom nou stop?), ek kan nie mooi skryf nie (eish, disleksie is ‘n lelike ding) en

dan ‘n paar ander goed wat liefs onvermeld sal bly (ek weet dit en dis genoeg!). Ek weet nie hoe ‘n vrou se kop werk nie (mind you, hier weet ek is ek nie alleen nie). Maar dom! Of toe nie! Ek het goeie begrip en verstaan as mense halwe woorde gebruik.

Ek vang dan ‘n grap sonder die “punch-line”. Ek verstaan wins en verlies. Ek weet jy kan net terug kry as jy iets daadwerkliks insit (die R20 se Lotto-kaartjie is nie genoeg nie), So, ek is ‘n gewone mens wat die lewe verstaan. Wel so het ek gedink.

Lees ek dat VVZ (VeelVrouZuma) vir OHV (OorledeHendrikVerwoerd) beskuldig dat die EOA (Ek’sOkayAmptenaar) wat nie die skoolboeke bestel het nie/die skoolboeke verkeerd bestel het/die verkeerde skoolboeke weg gegooi het/die nuwe vuurwa met die skoolboeke se geld gekoop het, OHV se skuld is. Opslag besluit ek net daar: soos die jong dogter wat vir my gesê het ek moet die grap weer vertel, want sy is maar stadig, is ek ook seker dan maar stadig. APK (AfduimPaulKruger) het gese om die goeie uit die verlede te neem en die toekoms daarop te bou. Miskien het VVZ dit verkeerd gelees, want dit smaak my net die slegte uit die verlede word gebruik. Nou wonder ek, is ek regtig stadig? Ek vra maar net.

What will it be: Tzaneng, Tzanana or will it stay Tzaneen? Part 4 The meaning of Tzannen and its origin by the department of arts and culture, RSA: The department of arts and culture in its list of local and district municipality’s names defines the meaning and origin of the word Tzaneen as follws:

Tzaneen is said to be derived from the Pedi word “tsana”. Several interpretations have been linked to the word tsana, the ﬁrst being during the times of Chief Makgoba, tsaneng was a meeting place. The second interpretation is that “tsana” means a basket since the municipal area is surrounded by mountains making a shape of a basket. Lastly, “tsana” also means weaving. It is said that the local people used to gather around and weave. Source: Place Names; Department of arts and culture’s list of local and district municipality’s names. First published at: http://sagns.dac.gov.za/local_authorities.asp Analysis of the above deﬁnition and origin of Tzaneen by the department of arts and culture: The third column from left side of the grid above attempts to define the possible meaning and origin of the word Tzaneen. In the first instance the word “tsana” as associated with Tzaneen is not only a Pedi word but a Northern Sotho word as well, in this case. The word is often related to the end syllable of SeSotho or Northern Sotho language “-ana” which implies either appreciation for goodness , beautifulness, or endearment and belittling or diminutive like the word motse becomes motsana, mosadi becomes mosadinyana or mosatšana, botse becomes botsenyana or botsana and lerotse becomes lerotsenyana or

It seems that the majority of the Greater Tzaneen Municipality’s councillors are favouring a name change for Tzaneen. Lekgolo Lazarus Ramalepe and Phetole David Mohubidu from Tzaneen say NO to a name change. They have researched the issue and we will present it over the next couple of weeks.

lerotsana, and so on and on. In the second instance ‘tsaneng” is not and was never associated with Chief Makgoba as it is claimed to be interpreted as such, but with Chief Maupa of the BaTsanene Community: hence, him being praised as “Maupa, Maupa ha se lešoto MoTsanene!”, meaning: Maupa, Maupa what a fortunate man — theTzaneener)! MoTsanene means the Tzaneener. This is what I mentioned earlier on in this document of the possible misconception of the interpretations or of what was said because Mr. Menno Klapwĳk on page 6 of his book says of Kgoši Maupa by one of his “… Bantu employees : “He told me that a Chief Mahupa, who was a Chief of Bantu tribe south of Duiwelskloof between 1880 and 1900, was also called Tsaneng Mahupa.” The statement “Tsaneng Mahupa” is possibly interpreted as and derived from: ‘Maupa MoTsanene; meaning: Maupa the Tzaneener!’. The third instance of interpretation is that “… tsana means an open basket since the municipal area is surrounded by mountains making a shape of a basket” is a fallacy. In Northern Sotho, part of which KheTsanene is part of the languages, we call an open basket ‘Tshaana’ and not “tsana”. Therefore, the interpretation of the word “tsana” as associ-

ated with a basket is, unless otherwise explained, something else that is not associated with the languages of the indigenous local people of Tsanene and the surrounding tribal areas. The fourth notion that is also misleading is that “tsana” also means weaving. It is mentioned that the local people used to gather around and weave.” In the local language of the indigenous people of Tsanene weaving or to weave is to ‘Ho loha’ in KheTsanene and other traditional local communities or ‘go loga’ in a standardised Northern Sotho language. Weaving of food wood containers like tshaana, leselo, kheroto and mmanki or basket has been a customary practice by, mostly the male members (individually and separately) of the households in the area of Tsanene and the other surrounding communities, namely BaNareng BaLetswalo, BaThlabine BaMogoboya, BaKgaga BaMaake, BaNareng BaSekororo, BaKone BaMametje, BaPhalaborwa Makhushwane BaMalatji, BaPhalaborwa BaSelwanan Malatji, BaLobedu BaModjadji, BaTsonga tribes and others, such that they did no have to come together and weave to an extend that it justifies the name and naming of Tsanene. This notion is dismissed by Mr Menno Klapwĳk as he argued that “Moreover, a Tsana is not a basket found exclusively in Tzaneen. It is found everywhere in the Letaba District, from North of Mujadji location to the tribal areas South of the Echo Caves and to the East in Mozambique. The Tsongas on the Mozambique coast are great “tsana” makers.” (p. 4). As said above the word tsana is used by the local people of the Northern Sotho group as an end syllable for either appreciation for goodness or beautifulness or belittling.

Sy’t ‘n endjie saam met die doodsengel gestap... Die grusame ongeluk wat verlede jaar op 22 September die lewens van vyf leerlinge op die R36-pad Tussen Tzaneen en Nkowankowa geëis het, het die gemeenskap van Tzaneen in diep skok en rou gelaat. Drie leerlinge is ook tydens die kop-aankop botsing ernstig beseer. Celeste van Staden, ‘n oud-leerling aan die Hoërskool Merensky, was een van hulle. Celeste en die medici het vir die eerste maand wat sy in die hospitaal was, om haar lewe geveg. Sy het agt weke in ‘n hoësorgeenheid deurgebring, waar sy onder sterk verdowing gehou is. Dokters het getwyfel oor haar herstelproses en hulle kon haar ouers nie verseker dat hul dogter sou verbeter nie. Celeste het albei haar femurs en knieë gebreek. Aan haar regtersy is sewe ribbes gebreek en behalwe vir haar longe wat platgeval het, het haar hart ook gaan staan. Sy was vir ses weke aan suurstof- en asemhaalapparaat gekoppel. Sy was ook heeltemal blind na haar ongeluk en haar een enkel was vergruis. “Hulle het die beentjies in haar enkel tydens ‘n operasie soos ‘n legkaart aanmekaar gesit,” verduidelik Celeste se ma Riana. Sy sê ook hoe daar in een stadium agtien pypies vir binneaarsevoeding aan Celeste gekoppel was. Celeste was vir drie maande in ‘n Pretoriase hospitaal. Haar korttermyngeheue was uitgewis en sy kon dus nie die eerste tien weke in die hospitaal onthou nie. Sy is tot haar familie se vreugde ‘n dag voor Kersfees ontslaan en hulle het ‘n dag na Kersfees huis

Die gebroke liggaam van ‘n bloedjong Celeste van Staden het medici laat huiwer om oor haar moontlike herstel menings te lug. Die grumotorongeluk waarin sy erg beseer is, het mense laat glo haar herstel was buite die kwessie. Maar die moedige jong dame het moedig baklei en nou behaal sy die een oorwinning na die ander oor haar skete. Die Bulletin se Amelia de Ridder het by Celeste gaan kuier en doen vandag verslag oor haar merkwaardige herstel, in haar eerste koerantonderhoud na die ongeluk ‘n jaar gelede.

toe (na Tzaneen) gekom. Celeste kon in daardie stadium steeds nie loop of sien nie. Sy het egter geleer om goed by die huis aan te pas en die gesin het so normaal as moontlik met hul daaglikste roetines probeer aangaan. Celeste se linkerbeen het later ten volle herstel en haar regterbeen wat vergruis was, toon tans tekens van vebetering na ‘n beeninplanting. Sy het voorverlede naweek tot almal se verbasing begin loop. Twee dae voor sy vir haar X-strale moes gaan, het Celeste opgestaan en haar eerste treë na sowat elf maande gegee. Dit is ‘n wonderwerk, omdat die X-straalplate twee dae later getoon het dat sy nie gou

weer sou kon loop nie. Celeste se vergruisde regterbeen moes na regte afgesit word. Die ortopeed het egter besluit om haar been te probeer red, omdat sy nog ‘n “jong meisie” is. “Hy was egter oortuig dat Celeste geen funksie van haar been sou hê nie”, sê Riana. Celeste kan nou kort afstande binne en buite die huis loop, sonder enige hulp. Celeste vertel hoe party van die mediese personeel begin huil het toe hulle haar weer sien. Volgens haar was hulle stomgeslaan oor die meisie vir wie daar voorheen so min hoop was. V a n d a g kan Celeste al kleure en vorms sien. Sy tel vinnig beweging op en kan tot om en by 30% op ‘n kort afstand sien. Die Van Stadens is positief dat haar sig ten volle sal herstel. Volgens Riana skort daar fisies niks met Celeste se oë nie. Sy ly

blykbaar slegs aan kortikale blindheid, wat beteken dat haar brein (wat beseer is) nog nie kan interpreteer wat sy sien nie. Celeste kan wonderbaarlik al ‘n skrifgrootte van 36 pt in vetdruk op ‘n rekenaarskerm lees. Die lewenslustige meisie maak seker sy hou haar liggaam fiks en gesond. Sy trap gereeld die oefenfiets en swem twee keer per week. Sy ry ook soms bietjie perd en stap al kort afstande saam met haar honde. ‘n Hegte vriend, wat elke dag saam haar op haar staproete gaan, stoot haar in die rolstoel saam en vertel dat hy daagliks ‘n verbetering in Celeste sien. Sy ontvang ook intensiewe arbeidsterapie by me Jenny McAdams wat haar weekliks in Modjadjiskloof besoek. Sy los ook ‘n tuisprogram wat Celeste se vriendin, Adele, gebruik om Celeste daagliks mee te help. Behalwe vir McAdams, is daar talle ander mense en instansies wat die Van Stadens in hul nood bygestaan het. Die NGK se Laeveld-gemeente het ‘n beenstimuleerder vir Celeste geborg en die Helping Daisies-organisasie verskaf maandeliks vitamine aanvullings aan Celeste. • Vervolg op bl 13

Municipality sends a stern warning to land invaders Nearly four years since the Greater Giyani Municipality (GGM) demolished houses built on its land in Section F and other areas around the town, it has made it clear again that they wouldn’t tolerate land invasion, by removing a fence around a portion of land in the CBD next to community hall. The fence encircled a portion of land in the town being claimed by the Maselesele family as their property. One of the family members who refused to talk to the media, tried in vain to stop municipal workers accompanied by the police from removing the fence. He argued that the matter was “still being considered by the high court,” and therefore the GGM could not remove the fence. The land in question is part of the land that was claimed by the community of the Siyandhani royal family. In 2010 the government, through the Land Claims Commission, paid about R10 million to the community of Siyandhani to settle their claim. The street vendors who operated in the area welcomed the GGM’s action, since the fence deprived them of trading in the area. A spokesman for the GGM issued a stern warning that the GGM will not exercise mercy when people invade its land and build il-

legal structures. “We urge everybody to first check with us or seek authorisation before erecting any structure in and area around the town,” he said.

MENTAL SKILL • Can talk about a recent event or experience sensibly with some degree of ﬂuency. • Enjoys stories and is able to listen without ﬁdgeting too much. • Recognises colours and knows their names • Knows her own last name, address and telephone number.

• When instructions are given, is happy to follow them.

• Can remember, in essence, what her favourite stories are about.

PHYSICAL SKILL • Can deal with buttons, zips and shoe laces.

• Pronunciation, enunciation, making up sentences, is fairly ﬂuent. • Already has memorized some childhood songs and rhymes.

• Can play ﬁnger games, is able to cut with scissors, can manage a large blunt needle and thread, string beads, and other small skills of manual dexterity.

• Loves joining in singing whether tonedeaf or not. • Shows a desire to read and is interested in books or other reading material.

• Can catch and throw a ball, though not necessarily overarm.

• In games that you play at home with other children, joins in and follows instructions when a new game is played.

• Has sufﬁciently good balance to walk along a wall or a beam.

• Registered. By law all crèches are required to be registered with the local municipality. Each crèche will need to subscribe to a set of regulations, like the child to caregiver ratio, etc. Health inspectors will frequently visit the facilities to ensure that the premises are kept clean and that there is no potential health or danger risks. • Clean. When visiting the crèche, observe how staff interact and care for the kids! Are the children clean and is there constant supervision. Ask to look at the kitchen were the meals are prepared. Visit the bathrooms and make a point to inspect the play area, it is well kept and safe? Has equipment been well-maintained? • Supervised. Make enquires about the crèche supervisor or the owner and ﬁnd out if they will remain at the crèche throughout the day. • Well organized. Are the babies kept separate in a nursery and are the older children separated by age? • Well staffed. Are there enough staff members to provide proper care for the each and every child? The other aspects that will form part of the crèche selection process include: • Meals. Are meals provided? If so, what type of meals and do they offer meals for kids who are allergic to certain food groups. • Cost. It is all very well choosing the best possible crèche for your child but it is pointless if parents will not be able to pay the fees. Look for a good quality crèche, which has affordable fees. Certain crèches request that parents supply the mid-morning and mid-afternoon snacks.

• Ask if any additional items need to be supplied. Over and above the monthly crèche fees, there are some crèches that ask parents to provide items such as boxes of tissues, toilets rolls, etc. Take these extra costs into account when working out your budget. • Enquire as to the type of discipline methods which are used? Do you agree with them? • Location – should the crèche be located close to work or close to home? Most parents opt for a crèche which is situated close to their home, however a crèche based close to work can have its advantages. In the event that a child falls ill, parents will not need to fight their way through traffic to get to the facility. A crèche which is close to home will allow both kids and parents the chance to interact with other families within their local community. • Are there extramural activities offered at the crèche, such as pottery and art lessons, monkeynastics, swimming or dancing classes? Are these offered free of charge, or will they be an additional cost? • Is the crèche able to assist with potty training? • What security measures are in place? Is there a procedure to be followed when children are collected? • Is there a swimming pool, and if so, is the pool securely enclosed and 100% safe? • Will the crèche close over the school holidays? • What time does the facility open in the mornings and will latecomers be fined?

Checklist when looking for a crèche:

Checklist for school readiness: SOCIAL SKILLS • Is liked and accepted by other children and does not take up an aggressive or martyred stance when faced with difﬁculties.

Facebook: search “Laeveld Bulletin”

• Kinders van 0 - 3 jaar • Alle etes ingesluit (behalwe baba melk) • Tye: 06:30 tot 17:30 • Vir liefdevolle kindwees versorging! • Klein groep (maksimum 20 kinders) John Smith St. 21, Aquapark Martie Kriel - 082 732 3339

• Formal classes for tots usually begin at the age of 3. In these classes teachers use fun lesson plans and children are taught to identify different colours and numbers through play, while at the same time their gross and ﬁne motor skills are developed. Does the crèche offer formal classes? • Does the crèche have a Grade 0 or Grade R class? This class will help preschoolers to become schoolready. Do not be afraid to ask questions and speak to the other moms at the crèche. If your child is old enough, be sure to ask their opinion. You are entitled to, as a parent, ask questions and inspect the facilities and your aim is to make 100% sure that when you walk out of the facility doors each day that your child will be well cared for and will be happy. A crèche which is well run and properly organized will have numerous beneﬁts for both you and your child. If possible, try to visit a few crèches in your area and make a comparison of what each crèche is able to provide, the monthly fees charged by each care facility and what aspects of each crèche you particularly liked and which you felt were areas of concern!

sig. Sy wil graag weer na foto’s kyk, ‘n tydskrif lees en gesigsuitdrukkings sien. “Ek wil weer gaan ‘sky-dive’ en duik,” vertel die adrenalien-verslaafde Celeste. Sy het met behulp van me Fransie Le Roux, die adjunkhoof: akademies van die Hoërskool Merensky, haar matrieksertifikaat bekom. Haar jaarpunt was goed genoeg en die onderwysraad het besluit om haar rekordeksamenpunt (in plaas van haar eindeksamenuitslae) te gebruik. Celeste wil graag skakelwese en bemarking aan die Centurion Akademie gaan studeer. Sy is reeds verlede jaar vir die kursus toegelaat en nou wag sy net dat haar sig verbeter. Die Van Stadens se volgende stap is om vir haar ‘n “tablet”rekenaar aan te skaf. Dan kan sy haar brein stimuleer, deur te tik en te lees omdat sy dit nog nie op TV- en rekenaarskerms kan doen nie. Sy kan ook van haar arbeidsterapie-oefeninge hierop oefen. “Celeste is presies soos sy voor die ongeluk was. Sy het geen kognitiewe vermoëns verloor nie. Ons vat dit dag vir dag en doen wat ons moet. Ons is dankbaar vir die mense wat ons deur die moeilike tyd in hul gebede opgedra en na ons uitgereik het,” sê Riana ter afsluiting. — Amelia de Ridder amelia@bulletin.us.com

A cyclist who creates awareness from Kampala to Cape Town

• Celeste van Staden herstel wonderbaarlik Die Van Stadens se mediese kostes het hulle tot op datum reeds meer as R1,5 miljoen uit die sak gejaag. “Die rekenings van dokters, fisioterapete, neurochirurge, dermatoloë en X-strale stroom steeds in” sê Riana. Celeste het nie met ‘n berader na die ongeluk gesels nie. Sy sê haar vriende was haar steun en dat hulle as beraders vir haar opgetree het. “My vriende het tydens my terapie alles saam my gedoen. Hulle het my met hul ondersteuning deur daardie tyd gedra.” Op ‘n vraag oor die gerugte wat na die ongeluk in omloop was, sê Celeste sy wil graag haar storie vertel. “Ek wil nie hê mense moet bang wees vir my of wonder wat gebeur het nie; ek wil hê hulle moet my vra.” Volgens Riana is daar mediese verslae wat bevestig dat daar geen alkohol in Celeste se bloed was nie. Gerugte dat Celeste vinniger as die nelperk op die pad gery het, blyk ook om onwaar te wees. Die snelheidsmeter van haar motor het op 70 km/h gevries, wat sprake van nalatige bestuur in ‘n ander perspektief plaas. Die sosiale vlinder met ‘n goeie sin vir humor vertel hoe sy haarself na die ongeluk leer waardeer het: haar hande, arms en lyf. Ook haar huis. Sy smag egter daarna om weer onafhanklik te wees. Op die oomblik is haar grootste struikelblok haar belemmerde

Mr. Mark McNamara travels through the heart of Africa in an attempt to raise awareness around the world for orphaned and vulnerable children of Africa. Seen in the photo are McNamara and Ms Louise Batty from Keep the Dream 196 and Katie Dee, the beloved koala (on the bicycle at the back).

An Australian primary school teacher and seasoned traveler, Mr Mark McNamara, took a year’s unpaid leave from work in his attempt to travel through Africa on his bicycle. He paid a visit to Tzaneen after cycling through eight countries over a period of six months. McNamara and his accomplice, the beloved koala, Katie Dee, traveled an extraordinary 4 952 km before finally reaching our town. Orphaned and vulnerable children from 35 villages in our area eagerly awaited McNamara and Katie Dee’s arrival. The Bike Africa’s bicycle journey raises funds for disadvantaged children through the community-based organization Keep the Dream 196. The organization supports these children through mentoring programs that guide them in developing a brighter future for themselves, as well as their community. Children are taught to be independent, responsible and resilient through the improvement of social integration. Keep the Dream 196 aims to reduce poverty and generate employment. They also help children to overcome challenges they face and enable them to explore life out-

side their villages. The organization currently supports 2 400 children in 85 villages. Stories and images that McNamara has come across on his journey, are shared on a website to reflect Africa’s diversity and strength, as well as issues and challenges. “My hope is that Bike Africa is a story that inspires respect for the people who share our world. “I am privileged to support Keep the Dream 196 who provide care for kids who need a hand. The story of the lives of orphaned and vulnerable children is one we can help them to write with a happier ending”, says McNamara. “It’s the start of an adventure for me, but more than that, a tribute to the courage and hope of the children of Africa”, McNamara added. The duo started their adventure in Kampala (Uganda) in January and will conclude it in Cape Town in November, after they’ve cycled a total of 7 000 km through ten African countries. The cyclist and his koala’s journey can be followed on bikeafrica.net. — Amelia de Ridder amelia@bulletin.us.com

Muyexe’s presidential project is riddled with irregularities The special committee on land and environmental affairs has exposed many irregularities in the presidential pilot project launched by President Jacob Zuma in August 2009 at Muyexe near Giyani. The committee was apparently sent by Zuma to assess progress in the projects arranged by the government in implementing its Comprehensive Rural Development Programme in the village since the launch in 2009, and was led by Ms Peace Bertha Mabe. One of the key issues is the water purification plant plant that was supposed to serve the whole community. However, the plant is not running. Allegedly Eskom switched off the electricity, since there was a huge outstanding amount for electricity usage. According to Limpopo Water Affairs director Alson Matukani the community has to use water containing nitrate acid, found in four of the 22 boreholes in the village. Another major problem is the Mancena agricultural project, where a man known as Dr Maniri, who apparently acted on behalf of rural development, allegedly borrowed R1,3 million from Old Mutual on behalf of the project, and then disappeared. The national director of the department of rural development, Ms Xoliswa Jozana, said there was never an agreement between the department and Maniri. “I cannot deny that the department knew of him coming here, but there was never an agreement with the department to be involved in the project,” she said. The head of the portfolio committee for community services in the Greater Giyani Municipality (GGM), Mr Abraham Manganyi, said the problem was a lack of communication between the national department and the GGM. Meanwhile, Maniri is said to have left the country and the SIU is investigating the case. Another problem is the looting of govern-

ment property, discovered by the commitee. According to Mabe, the committee will compile and recommend further implementation of projects where necessary. They will most likely also recommend punitive steps to whoever to be found guilty of being involved in the wrong doings. Asked about any possible lessons learned from the project, Mabe said: “I think lack of communication and a lack of proper planning and proper management in terms of rolling out government projects, are two of the most important lessons to be learnt from this situation.”

Miss Limpopo, Katryn Barwise from Tzaneen, was the ambasador for the Rhino Festival at Loskop Dam and her initiative to sell T-shirts printed with a Stop Rhino Poaching slogan produced nearly R5 000 that was donated to SanParks Honorary Rangers project to save our rhinos. The winners of the Miss Rhino Festival helped to sell the T-shirts. The shirts were sponsored by Racing 41. A video of the festive activities will soon be shown on KykNET’s Fiesta slot. The acting chairperson of the investigation team, Ms Peace Bertha Mabe, is seen here taking notes during the investigation into irregularities at the Muyexe projects at Giyani.

10 Principles of training by Damian Jansen van Rensburg Principle 6 – Speed Speed is the ability to minimize the time cycle of a repeated movement. Speed training is a very important and subsequently often neglected area of training. It goes hand in hand with power and could improve your results in the gym or outdoors on the bike or running substantially. The speed training exercises and techniques are useful not only to perform faster, but it also helps in increasing the strength and endurance of an individual. It has been found that almost all the individuals who are into some

kind of activi-ty that needs extensive strength all follow a strict speed training schedule. Speed training sessions decrease the reaction time of the nervous system, thus enabling the body to perform quicker. Speed training is considered important to develop the ability of the body to perform at high speeds .

SLC and Ben Vorster slog it out Sport office

sport@bulletin.us.com

Stanford Lake College and Ben Vorster High School clashed on the cricket field on Saturday and walked away with one victory each. The first teams battled it out at Ben Vorster and Stanford, who won the toss, batted first. The Vossies’ bowlers kept it tight and didn’t give Stanford much opportunity to score on a pitch that favoured good batting conditions. Tam Johnson scored 70 runs and was well supported by Reinard Schmidt with 30 runs. Unfortunately the damage was done early on and Stanford were all out on 154 runs. The Vossie captain, Girvacques de Jager, caused the most damage, taking five wickets for 35 runs in ten overs. Christo van Zyl took three for forty runs. Ben Vorster came out firing and Stanford was under pressure from the beginning. Jon-

ty Brown bowled well, taking three wickets. Hennie Botes was the Vossies’ top scorer with 69 runs. Ben Vorster won by six wickets. Stanford’s u.15’s turned the tables and recorded a two wicket victory over Ben Vorster. The Vossies batted first and scored 164 runs. Michael J van Rensburg scored 55 runs. Conrad Schmidt was Stanford’s top bowler, taking five wickets for 37 runs in eight overs. Jason Wright took two for seventeen runs. The Stanford batsmen had to work hard for their runs against a good Vossie bowling attack. They struggled to 58 runs for the loss of four wickets before a match winning fifth wicket partnership of 85 runs between David Morris and Graeme Harty. Harty top scored with 63 runs. The match was concluded in the 32nd over LEFT: Graeme Harty taking gaurd in front of the wickets in the u.15 match.
