Prominent lawyer arrested An established Lenyenye lawyer, Petrus Malatji, was arrested on Wednesday in connection with alleged fraud. He appeared in the Tzaneen magistrates court yesterday and applied for bail, which was granted and fixed at R7 000. The case has been remanded to 14 March and will be transferred to the Commercial Court in

‘n Lelike ding is aan die kom by die afrit na links uit Voortrekkerweg by en dan in na die Tzaneen Lifestyle Centre en die Mediclinic Tzaneen. Die omgekeerde driehoek met die swart pyl wat 90° na links knak, beteken motoriste mag teen die rooi lig ry, as daar nie verkeer in Voortrekkerweg afkom vir wie die groen lig skyn en voor hulle wil indraai nie (ook na die sentrum of die hospitaal). Mense met gekoopte rybewyse verstaan nie die padteken nie en die mense wat nie rybewyse gekoop het nie, het vergeet wat hulle geleer het (of hulle het gekul en afgekyk in die toets). Neem kennis van die probleem, want hier gaan Tzaneen nog ‘n padwoede-voorval sien, wat vir niks skrik nie. Hoor ons lied!

Besoekers en toeriste aan Tzaneen is van mening dat die dorp stadig aan die agteruitgang is, as daar gekyk word na plekke wat vervalle is en straatsmouse wat orals die sypaadjies beset. Wat is jou mening, is Tzaneen besig om agteruit te gaan? Laurie Poolman Dit is beslis die geval! As ’n oudinwoner kan mens dit nou meer agterkom as toe ek daar gebly het! In die 30 jaar het die dorp baie gegroei, maar van die prag wat dit vroeër jare was, is daar nie veel meer oor nie! Kyk maar hoe lyk die dorp se ingange! Dis om van skaam te kry, en dan die strate. Yesterday at 11:18am via mobile · Like · 1 Vanessa Leigh Luckhoff They should come to Modjadjiskloof! We are beyond ‘agteruit’! Johan du Toit Wel, kan nie anders as die wonderlike verantwoordelike stadsraad wat in beheer is, of eerder so eie aan Afrika ideologie, wat dit toelaat. As daar noord van ons grense gekyk word, is dit maar die norm hoe straatsmouse oorneem en die agteruitgang van paaie, ens. Hans Schouwstra Beslis, daar is dele van die dorp wat mens eerder vermy. Dink aan die poskantoor waar hulle sypaadjie vol sit, die meeste dele van die hoofstraat, van Ickinger tot onder by PEP verby moet jy meer in die pad loop as op sypaadjie. Dan praat ons nie eers van wat aangaan agter die mall nie, dis chaos. Slaggate word groter. Die dorp, veral die midde dorp is erg. Tzaneen-Angels That-care Ek dink ook Tzaneen gaan agteruit. Ons paaie is verskriklik, dis omtrent ’n obstacle course net om by werk en huis te kom. En die smouse en hawkers is orals en is regtig lastig by die robots, hulle hardloop voor ’n mens in net om hul lietsjies te verkoop. Kan die staatsamptenare regtig niks doen nie? Amanda Strydom Ja, ja, ja! Vieslike vuil plek. Geen instandhouding. Praat nie eens van die 4x4 roetes wat nou oral kop uitsteek! Die strate is beslis gepak met smouse en die stadsraad het geen wette in plek om dit te bekamp. “Nes” is die beskrywing wat ‘n besoeker van die Kaap geuiter het. Boosheid vul die lug. Kyk, arm wees het nog nooit beteken los jou gemors vir iemand anders om op te ruim! My dae in die dorp is beperk. My humeur ruk hand uit!

Rensce Koekemoer Vd Merwe Definitief. Glad nie meer lekker om middedorp toe te gaan nie. Die strate is vol slaggate en vullis lê die hele plek vol. Willem Cloete Dis ‘n definitiewe ja. Kry ons dorp skoon van al die indringer “plante” wat uit Afrika instroom. Jacques Myburgh Stadig? Lois Uys Verseker agteruitgang. Stadige armoede! Riaan Neuhoff Miskien moet die klomp patete gaan kyk hoe lyk dit in Hermanus. Daar is nie ’n straatsmous nie, dit is skoon, georganiseerd, dit word nie geduld nie. Ek kon dit nie glo hoe agteruit die plek gegaan het nie, ek moes maar in Hermanus gebly het. Maryne Van Rensburg Venter Die persoon wat sy hoede ens verkoop vanaf sy nuwe bakkie op die hoek oorkant Dando’s? Dit is ’n prime spot in die hoofstraat waar die huur vir ’n perseel nogal duur is. So ipv huur, betaal hy eerder sy bakkie paaiement en ontglip ook sommer die ontvanger. Lekker, né, as jy kan. Iesh! Pat Patterson Agteruit? Ja, ons is al in derde rat. Annelize Terblanche Dis dalk ‘n goeie idee om op te hou kerm en dan maar iets te doen as dit so pla, of hoe? Babie Erasmus Dit is ’n paradys teen Duiwelskloof!
Waar is Werner?
Vlieg praat met die Volk en krap waar dit jeuk...
Partykeer verlang Vlieg na mense wat hy nie ken nie. Soos na Werner. Vlieg weet glad nie wie Werner is nie en weet nie hoe hy lyk nie. Vlieg weet wel hoe sy stem klink. En dat hy, ten minste verlede jaar nog, by die Beep Bank gewerk het. Vlieg het egter baie lanklaas iets van Werner gehoor. Siestog, Vlieg hoop nie hy het toe sy werk verloor nie. Hy het darem sy beste gedoen vir die Beep Bank, en dit sou v.i. (Vliegs Insiens) baie onregverdig gewees het van Beep Bank om hom weg te jaag. Vlieg weet ook baie goed hoe dit is om gedurig die wind van voor te kry, en dit is dalk die rede waarom Vlieg so ‘n ou sagte plekkie vir ou Werner ontwikkel het. Die ding oor wind is dat dit nie altyd in dieselfde rigting bly waai nie. Dit verander dikwels sommer in ‘n ommesientjie van rigting, soms wanneer dit die minste verwag word. So as Beep Bank nou so ‘n bietjie geduldig was met Werner, sal hulle waarskyn-
lik in die volgende paar weke agterkom dat al die kliënte wat hulle verlede jaar verloor het, baie vinnig op pad terug is met hul besigheid. Maak nie saak hoeveel iPads en iPhones hulle by ‘n ander bank gekry het nie, of hoe vinnig hulle kwansuis hul rekenings aanlyn kon skuif nie. Vlieg was nogal beïndruk met Eerste Naregeringsepypedans Bank se nuutste en skielike geaborteerde advertensieveldtog. Wat Vlieg egter nie beïndruk het nie, is dat hierdie bank toegelaat het dat die Aansee so in hul sake inmeng. Die geïnmengery was in elk geval net weer die Aansee se ou manier van doen om ‘n bohaai op te skop oor iets onbenulligs, om die aandag af te lei van die res van die land wat aan die brand is. Vlieg dink sy ondersteuners sal nie verkeerd wees om weer ‘n slag met ou Werner te gesels nie. Die Beep Bank is darem openlik skelm, en loop nie almal om die bos en lei met allerhande stories soos die ander banke nie!
Die menings, uitsprake, standpunte, verwysings, komplimente, beledigings, humor, ens van Vlieg is nie noodwendig dié van die Bulletin of die eienaar en personeel van die koerant nie!
Die mense hoor Let wel: Hulle sê nie so nie! • Daar is nog stories oor vloed-eskapades. Terwyl die Gerd van ‘n ander kleur se storie net ‘n mooi en onskuldige storie van dapperheid is, is daar ander wat van ‘n ander soort dapperheid getuig. Soos die motor wat deuskant die rivier gelos (weggesteek) is en toe die waters die nag erg afkom, toe is man en motor geskei. Nogal ‘n splinternuwe bakkie met so ‘n krom pens... • Dit is nie mooi van die beheerraadslede om nie die atletiek by te woon nie. Of was hulle daar? Meneer die voorsitter, mevrou ondervoorsitter, maak asseblief ‘n plan, julle tweetjies. Ons wil almal daar sien, gereeld en stiptelik. Maar ons praat later weer, want die mense hoor nog ander goetertjies ook, wat hulle eers alles bymekaar wil sit.... • Die egskeidingouens en -vrouens moet nou assbelief bietjie briek aandraai met al
die stories. Hulle vergeet dat die wet hulle beskerm en dat die koerante nie eintlik oor hul dade mag berig nie. Kyk die wette is deesdae mos vir alles en almal, en teen die media. Kinders van twaalf kan nou maar seks geniet, maar ‘n sestienjarige meisie mag nie op TV sê sy dink ons onderwysminister se skedel is leeg nie. Dinge is so onverstaanbaar. Terug na die egskeidings. Die mense hoor waar ‘n rokie trek is ‘n vuurtjie. As die man baie geld gekry het en weggegooide vroutjie moet ‘n persentasie kry, dan moet mens daarby hou. Maar die mense hoor waar ‘n rokie trek, is ‘n vuurtjie. Luister nou mooi: waar ‘n rokie trek, is ‘n vuurtjie. En op dié vurige noot groet Die Oor eers. Want daar trek ‘n rokie en ons wil na die vuurtjie gaan soek... • Waar ‘n rokie trek... dink, mense, dink...

Iets prut in die geledere van die DA-raadslede in die GTM. Gaan dit oorkook? — bl 6
Thank God, it finally rained… The recent good rain has saved the Greater Giyani Municipality from plunging into a complete water crises.
The two dams that supply the GGM with water both ran completely dry and for the past year the GGM, assisted by the MDM, supplied water from tankers to thousands of households. A special rain prayer service was held recently by the GGM in conjunction with pastors’ organisations, to pray for rain. Some boreholes also began to start running dry. The message from the department of water affairs was that if it didn’t rain by the end of Olebile February there would be a serious crisis, and Hangwani Mukwevho, Olebile Monica Muk- Accomplish: the owner wevho, the wife Avhapfani Mukwevho there would be no single drop of water in the taps in the GGM’s jurisdiction. In the photo herewith residents of Giyani pray for rain, a week before the good rains started (answering their prayers).
Edu dept closed... After we reported on the 2012 matric results it was brought to our attention that the person who we believed to be the top pupil in the Mopani district had matriculated from an independent school and not from a public school. We then endeavored to find the top public school pupil, but to no avail. The search started at the office of the department of education in Tzaneen. Ms Melanie Grobler could only confirm the top school in the Tzaneen circuit, being Merensky High School. She then referred us to Mr Mashamba, the head of examinations (082 818 3133), who said that he would not be able to assist us. Mashamba referred us to Dr Mafenya (015 811 7702), whose receptionist gave us her cell phone number (082 881 3178). Our call, however, were immediately put through to Mafenya’s voicemail box. After little success we approached a different angle, contacting the Giyani-circuit office (015 812 1131). Upon

our enquiry, the receptionist referred us to the Giyani district manager’s office (015 811 7700). We were told that the manager was unavailable and that we should contact Mr Pat Kgomo at the head office (015 290 7702). We had no luck contacting Kgomo’s head office and we were told to dial him on one of two numbers: 015 290 9301 or 072 573 0888. Our last attempt was (to no great surprise) a failed one, as nobody answered these numbers. This has become journalists’ nightmare, since it is a daily battle to communicate with officials. They are forever in workshops (it doesn’t seem to help to bring about change). Or they are simply not avaialable and their secretaries and PA’s and typists and drivers and private tea maids more often than not can’t indicate when they will be available... Our effort with the education department kept one of our reporters busy for almost two days! And we dealt with only one department! — Amelia de Ridder
Een van Tzaneen se bekendste veterane, mnr Hendrik van Schalkwyk, is verlede week Donderdag ter ruste gelê, nadat hy op die ouderdom van 82 jaar dood is. Hy laat sy vrou Helen, seun Hendrik jr en sy vrou Anna, dogter Marietjie en kleinkinders agter. Van Schalkwyk was 45 jaar in diens van die Tzaneen Munisipaliteit en tot met sy aftrede was hy assistent-stadstesourier.
The Hawks rearrested the alleged fly-by-night kingpin, Hangwani Mukwevho (57), for running another unregistered FET College in Kgapane, on Friday. According to Limpopo police spokesman, Brig Hangwani Mulaudzi, Mukwevho and his wife Olebile Monica Mukwevho (45) and their business associate, Avhapfani Dalton Muluma (31), were first arrested for allegedly running the Seshego FET College, but it was run without being registered at the department of higher education. The Hawks discovered Mukwevho was also the owner of the Kgapane FET College in Bolobedu (also not registered). Suspected fraudulent documents indicate that the college, which started in 2010, is also registered
as the Bela Bela Technical College. Mukwevho and Kgaogelo Grace Mafokeng appeared in the Bolobedu magistrates court on Monday. They remain in custody and their case was transferred to Seshego for consolidation with Mukwevho’s first case. The two, together with Muluma and Mukwevho, will appear in Seshego for a bail application. The police urge all previous and current students of both the Seshego and Kgapane FET Colleges to go to their nearest police station to furnish their particulars. “This is done so the police have a database of all the robbed students and to prevent them from being arrested for applying using fake certificates. — Martina Jege martina@bulletin.us.com

Fifteen people were arrested for loitering, 48 for violating the road traffic act, five for illegal trading, four for shoplifting, four for theft, two for drinking and driving, two for common robbery, one for housebreaking and theft and one for drinking in public. Seale again urged motorists to obey the traffic laws and to avoid drinking and driving, since it regularly puts innocent lives in danger.

Now its war The SAPS in Limpopo have had enough of the escalating number of rapes being committed on a daily basis and have now declared war against rapists. Over 121 rape cases have been reported since the beginning of 2013. The SAPS provincial spokesman, Brig Hangwani Mulaudzi, said that police will act without any leniency in the application of the law and that some rapists might face charges of attempted murder. He added that all rape suspects will be subjected to an HIV test and if the results come back positive, a charge of attempted murder will be added to the original rape charge. He added that the statistic is awful and that the police have vowed not to sit down and fold their arms. Tzaneen cluster was the main contributor with 27 rape cases, followed by the Polokwane cluster where seventeen

Police warn: Beware of scrap yards The Tzaneen police busted five suspects during Operation Scrap Metal, which was aimed at raiding chop shops and other scrap yards in Ritavi, on Tuesday.

Another two suspects were arrested for the possession of stolen property. The suspects were found with seven 25 litre tanks filled with diesel, which police suspect to have been stolen from a construction company in Khujwana.

Seun dood na erge hoofpyn, stywe nek — tipies meningitis ‘n Hoërskoolseun van Merensky het verlede Dinsdag by die skoolverpleegster oor erge hoofpyne gekla, voordat hy in ‘n sweetbad na die Mediclinic in Tzaneen gehaas en later dood is. Daar word tans vermoed dat breinvliesontsteking die lewe van die sestienjarige Jandré van der Watt, ‘n gr 8-leerling, geëis het.
Jolandi, dogter van Mariette van Straate, en Donovan, seun van Deney Gravett, is onlangs in die huwelik bevestig deur Allen van Reenen by Highgrove Lodge Tzaneen. Die paartjie vestig hulle in Tzaneen. (Albei hul pa’s is reeds oorlede)
The blueberries and raspberries are hanging ripe and ready to pick on the bushes as Magoebaskloof and Haenertsburg are busy with the final preperations for the annual Berry Festival next Saturday and Sunday. For the first time this year strawberries will also be available at the festival. Visitors will also be able to pick their own cherry guavas on a farm just outside Tzaneen.
Besides visiting the participating farms where you can pick and eat your fill of luscious berries you can take part in fun events in the village of Haenertsburg where there will be a harvest market, competitions, music, a barn dance and loads of delectable berry dishes at the hotels, restaurants and tea gardens. The participating farms will open their gates to the public
Van der Watt is verlede Woensdag van die Mediclinic Tzaneen na die Letaba-staatshospitaal se ongevalle eenheid oorgeplaas. “Dit was skaars vyf minute na ek omgedraai en my foon geantwoord het, dat my seun se hart op die hospitaalbed gaan staan het,” sê mnr Chris van der Watt, Jandré se pa. ‘n Emosionele Van Der Watt sê dat sy fris seun wat aan landloop en rugby deelgeneem het, meteens soos ‘n pap baba gelyk het. Jandré is per noodvlug na die Polokwanestaatshospitaal afgevoer, voordat hy die Donderdagoggend in die Mankweng-hospitaal opgeneem en Vrydagoggend daar dood is. Jandré het nie die aansteeklike virus breinvliesontsteking gehd nie en daar is geen rede tot kommer by die skool nie. Jandré (wat die enigste kind was) laat sy pa (Chris) en ma, Esmé, agter.

Thirty now behind bars The department of justice and the Tzaneen cluster seem to be indeed strengthening their relationship. This is the feeling after 29 criminals were sentenced by Tzaneen, Bolobedu, Ritavi and Maake magistrates and high courts for 36 different crime incidents. Sape Elias Mailula of Makhwibidung at Maake was sentenced to two years plus 24 years imprisonment for murder, attempted rape, attempted murder and possession of a firearm without a license. Innocent Moyo from Tzaneen was sentenced to two years imprisonment for theft out of a
motor vehicle and another two years for theft. The Tzaneen Cluster commander, Maj Genl Maggy Mathebula, welcomed the sentencing. She applauded the police for tirelessly working long hours to investigate the cases and to ensure that all criminals are now behind bars, where they should be. “It takes dedication and unity to achieve such verdicts and we believe working together with the department of justice can bring positive outcomes,” Mathebula said. — Martina Jege martina@bulletin.us.com

The Message
Vrydag 01 Februarie 2013
Rev Ron Reiners
Groenste dorp is vaal
In 1 Corinthians 12 v 1-11 we read about Spiri-tual Gifts, gifts that God in His mercy gives us: Wisdom, knowledge, faith, healing, miraculous powers, prophecy, distinguishing between spi-rits, speaking in tongues, interpretation of tongues.
Dit is werklik ontstellend om te beleef hoe min die kortbroek politici — stadsraadslede van al die partye, hier en dwarsdeur die land — van hul eie raadsake, amptenare, prosedures en selfs hul kiesers se werklike verwagtings, besware, bekommernisse en dies meer weet. Dit is jammerlik om te beleef hoe hulle ook gou-gou ego’s ontwikkel en lekker arrogant raak. Om nie te praat van hoe hulle maar almal die rit op die soustrein saam geniet nie. Sommige meer as ander. In Tzaneen se raad loop sake erg verkeerd. Dissipline in die GTM is ‘n reuseprobleem; nepotisme is ‘n kopseer; gewone luiheid by talle amptenare vertraag dienslewering; onkunde lê oral rond aan die wortel van die kwaad; talle raadslede gaan lekker onverskillig met die waarheid om; en so kan mens ‘n lang lys saamstel. Maar lyste gaan nie help nie. Aksie is wat nodig is. Gekoördineerde aksie deur ‘n span wat saam trek aan die wa. En dit bestaan nie in Tzaneen se raad nie. Die ANC is verdeeld en die DA bestee hul energie aan skinder en kwaadpraatjies en verder is hulle maar lekker onbeholpe. Die ander splintergroepies is seepbelle wat in die lug sweef. Ons moet uit die kortbroeke kom. Maar hoe?
Help met ‘n ryding Me Isabel Schoeman van Tzaneen skryf: Ek het dringend hulp nodig met ‘n saak rakende twee bejaardes in Tzaneen. ‘n Paar maande terug is hulle ou bakkie gesteel en het hulle nou ‘n vervoermiddel dringend nodig. Die dame is baie siek en haar man moet haar gereeld hospitaal toe vat. Verder ry hulle net na die kerk en ‘n nabygeleë winkelsentrum toe. Ons het tans ‘n bedrag geld ingesamel wat gebruik kan word om ‘n voertuig vir hulle te koop. Is daar nie dalk iemand wat ‘n ou karretjie of bakkie in ‘n redelike toestand het om te verkoop of te skenk nie? Enigiemand wat kan help, kan my gerus skakel by 083 448 5171 of Leon by 076 828 1615.
Goeie nuus Frederick Pohl van Tzaneen skryf: Die Dr Adams kruising se verandering is aanvaar in die IDP (ontwikkelingsplan) wanneer dit gaan verander is onseker, fondse moet eers toegeken word in die begroting vir die projek. Die smouse is ‘n prioriteit. Daar is reeds begin om smouslisensies na te gaan en vas

Now I know it will be said that we do not possess all these gifts and this is true, but we can ask God to give us these gifts and He will if they are used for good and not for self-gain. He may also give us these gifts for only a short while or for a long time as long as we use them for His purposes. Many of us have already the gift of faith. We say we believe in Christ, but do we actually encourage others to claim this gift? It is known fact that many are turning away from main stream religion even denying that there is a God. What has changed them so much? I believe that they did not use this gift correctly and were influenced by the modern world. We see in the modern world how the lack of faith has led to upheaval, broken marriages, and even to ill health. We need to believe in something or someone, it is human nature. However, often we a let down by our beliefs due to the fact that others cause us to doubt. Modern technology gives us answers and often we do not query them but blindly believe them. Yet this is not a modern trend if we look back in history we will find evidence that beliefs in the super natural, or the powers of witch doctors etc. What we need to do is to re-examine our faith. We need to get answers to questions that have been worrying us for a long time. The greatest question that often comes up is “Is there a God” with all the conflict in the world today it is easy to answer in the negative. Once again this is where faith comes in and not just a hearsay faith but a strong conviction that God is in control. We often wait until a crises hits us before we turn to God for help. I encourage you all to be faithful at all times and to give Him the thanks that He deserves, daily. Blessings
Letters • Briewe te stel wie is geregtig om in die strate te smous en waar. Ons hou julle op hoogte. Dié week sit die seleksiepaneel om ‘n vervangende raadslid te vind vir Luke Perkins wat verhuis het na Pietermaritzburg. ‘n Opname van slaggate word ook gemaak veral na die reën. Die kontrakteur is aangestel om te begin met die herstel van Claude Weatley straat. Die reën het egter die begin vertraag. Ons het gevind dat die skakelbord by Tzaneen Munisipale kantore swak beantwoord word ons neem die saak verder met die munisipale bestuurder. Goeie nuus is dat die Munisipaliteit ‘n prys gewen het vir die skoonste Munisipaliteit en ‘n geldbedrag daarvoor ontvang het daar is ‘n voorstel dat die fondse aangewend gaan word vir die oprigting van ‘n opleidingsentrum, die Raad moet nog egter daaroor besluit, die vraag is of dit dienslewering sal verbeter?
Ons nooi elkeen uit om enige probleme met dienslewering onder ons aandag te bring. * Die smous onder die R71-brug was vir min of meer die hele 2012 ‘n prioriteit vir die DA en daar is hoog opgegee oor hoe die saak opgelos gaan word, maar dit lyk nie of daar ‘n millimeter gevorder is nie. Hoe gaan die res van die smouse in die dorp gepak word? En wat gaan gedoen word as hulle weier om ‘n voet te versit, soos die sangomas langs die rivier doen? Is u seker van die skoonste munisipaliteit-toekenning? Na ons wete is dit ‘n toekenning aan die groenste dorp, en het dit te make met vullisverwydering en verwerking/herwinning — mnr Henk Minnie se afdeling. Dit sal sin maak, want Minnie en sy personeel se werk is uitstekend en niks minder as dit nie. Maar Tzaneen as die skoonste dorp? Dan wil mens nie dink hoe vuil en verwaarloosdie res moet wees nie! — Redakteur.
GNT’s decision welcomed Desiree van der Walt, DA Limpopo
Spokesperson on Economic Development, Environment and Tourism, writes: Letebele’s Public Service Commission probe must continue. The Democratic Alliance welcomes the decision by Great North Transport to cancel the appointment of Mr Ntau Letebele as its Chief Executive. This appointment should not have been made in the first place. That it took place raises serious questions of political interference in the process. Questions that need to be answered are; was the Board of Directors that approved Mr Letebele’s appointment oblivious to a matter that was already in the public arena. Mr Letebele was publicly implicated in a report on tender irregularities by the Public Protector. If this was the case then the Board was in dereliction of its fiduciary duties towards the Company. Secondly it must be probed whether or not there was a political instruction from higher echelons to appoint Mr Letebele. The DA had already written to the Public Service Commission (PSC) to probe this appointment. We will ask that the investigation continues and be extended to include findings of political interference and whether the Board acted ethically when it made the initial appointment.
Die DA in Tzaneen blyk in ‘n staat van ontkenning te wees DA-stadsraadslede in Tzaneen trek duidelik nie in een span nie. Nou word gesê daar was erge spanning in die aanloop tot vroeër dié week se sitting van die keurkomitee, wat moes besluit oor ‘n kandidaat uit vyf wat vir die vakature benoem is (deur mnr Luke Perkins se vertrek). Om agter die kap van die byl te probeer kom, het ons ‘n paar vrae aan Limpopo se DA-leier, mnr Jacques Smalle, gestuur en hierby is die vrae en antwoorde (ons gee dit absoluut onveranderd en ongeredigeerd): Vraag 1: Na verneem word is ene mnr Brown Mashele aangewys as die DA in die Groter Tzaneen Munisipaliteit se raad, om die vakature wat deur die bedanking van mnr Luke Perkins gelaat is, te vul. Is dit korrek? Antwoord: Ja. Vraag 2: Verder word verneem dat die keurpaneel eenparig op hom besluit het. Kan u dit bevestig? Antwoord: Ja. Vraag 3: Kan u die name van die lede van die keurpaneel verstrek? Antwoord: Die keur panneel word saamgestel in gevolge die Party se regulasies vir voornemende
kandidate. Die panneel was ‘n diverse panneel bestaande uit lede van die Party. Die Provinsiale Leier asook die politieke hoof van Mopani dien saam met die keur panneel soos per DA regulasies. Die ander lede verteenwoordig verskilende plaaslike owerhede uit die Mopani Distrik. Die keur panneel doen slegs ‘n aanbeveling aan die Provinsiale uitvoerende raad wat dan die voorstel goedkeur of afkeur. Onsuksesvolle kandidate kan egter ‘n versoek rig tot appèl indien hul ontevrede is met die uitslag. Vraag 4: Is ‘n CV van mnr Mashele beskikbaar? Antwoord: Alle onderhoude word gevoer met aan die hand van ingehandige CVs en indien u die betrokke kandidaat se CV vervlang kan U hom kontak by 0849809234 Vraag 5: Is u bewus van aantygings dat daar ‘n erge smeerveldtog teen een van die kandidate wat benoem was, mnr Bernard Nel, gevoer is? Antwoord: Met betrekking tot vrae 5-7 is ek nie bewus v enige aksie geloots teen Mnr Nel. Vraag 6: Is u bewus daarvan dat beweer word dat minstens drie mense met noue bande met die DA die beweerde veldtog sou gevoer het? Vraag 7: Is u bewus daarvan dat beweer word dat erge karakterskendende uitlatings, halwe waarhede en sterk ingekleurde nuanses oor mnr Nel
se persoon gemaak sou gewees het? Vraag 8: Wat is die DA se standpunt oor karakterskending in die algemeen en meer in die besonder as ampsbekleërs van die party hulle daaraan sou skuldig maak? Antwoord: Die DA handhaaf n kode van etiese waardes, dit sal op prys gestel word as U my kan voorsien van name wat dalk ons gedragskode oortree het. Vraag 9: Is die bevindings van die keurpaneel ter insae of is dit ‘n ondeursigtige proses waarvan die inhoud party-eiendom is? Antwoord: Dit is private inligting en soms kan inligting buite konteks gebruik word of verstaan. Daar is gevalle waarby kandidate nie van hul persoonlike inligting bekend wil maak nie aan die publiek voor ‘ n aanstelling. Vraag 10: Hoe sou u in ‘n enkele paragraaf of twee die erns van die DA ten opsigte van raadsake in die GTM opsom? Antwoord: DA raadslede is daar om plaaslike/ breër gemeenskap te dien. Om ‘ n diens te voorsien van toepassing vir aangeleenthede binne en buite die raad. In die konteks en raamwerk van Plaaslike Regering moet die raadslid fokus op plaaslike gebeure en nie Nasionale en Provinsiale aangeleenthede. Om op hoogte te bly oor DA
beleid en dit deur te voer op grondvlak en in die plaaslike rade. Vraag 11: Wat is die DA-raadslede in die GTM se prioriteite, veral ten opsigte van beweerde nepotisme, korrupsie, die geweldige omvang van regskoste vir regsaksies wat die een na die ander verloor word en belastingbetalers se geld opslurp? Antwoord: Om deursigtig en verantwoorbaar te wees. Om te waak teen vrugtelose uitgawes. Om seker te maak dat interne prosesse in plek is wat sal lei tot beter finansiële dissipline. Om enige wan praktyke in die verband aan die kaak te stel. Vraag 14: Is u bewus van die debakel aan die einde van 2012 (tydens die laaste raadsvergadering van die jaar) toe die burgemeester die DAkoukusleier uitgetrap het omdat sy in die voorafgaande Exco-vergadering ten gunste van die aanstelling van die nuwe MM gestem het en toe in die algemene raad daarteen gestem het? Indien wel, wat is u kommentaar hierop? Antwoord: Volgens die Koukus leier is dit onwaar. Daar is nie ruimte vir twee ander vrae (12 & 13) en antwoorde nie en ons sal dit volgende week behandel — plus vrae op ons vrae waarop die antwoorde nie vir ons duidelik is nie, die vraag nie beantwoord is nie of die waarheid nie uit die antwoord duidelik is nie.

LFPA launches school competition The Letaba Fire Protection Association (LFPA) started the year on a high note, with an initiative to spread the message about fire hazards and present opportunities to rural farm schools. This initiative will afford lucky pupils an opportunity to go for a ride in a helicopter. The news was received with great enthusiasm by the pupils of the Loretto Primary School in Agatha. The pupils all answered a firm no, when asked if they have ever been in an aircraft. Loretto is one of the sixteen schools

An illegal electricity connection in Mariveni near Nkowankowa claimed the life of a 23 year-old man on Wednesday. The village has become very dangerous because of a network of illegally connected wires all over the place. Seen in the photo top left is a typical scene in the area, where wires (not even waterproof cables) are hanging over a sloot. LEFT BOTTOM: The body of the electrocuted Benard Magoro is being placed in the back of the vehicle of the Forensic Pathology service. A farm worker, one Michael, who was harvesting lychees on the Hamawasha plot of a Tzaneen lawyer, Mr Jenke Nagel, was also electrocuted when a ladder he carried touched overhead high voltage wires.

Rugby by Merensky betree vanjaar ‘n nuwe dimensie
Tzaneeners troef Barberton se modder Die 75 km-wedren vir dames is deur Candice Neethlingh gewen. Die Tzaneeners het hulle goed van hul taak gekwyt. Mark Pieterse en Pieter Vorster het die ultra 120 km as voorbereiding vir die Cape Epic-wedren gebruik. Meganiese teëspoed het hulle egter die afsnypunt met agt minute laat mis en kon hulle net die 75 km-wedren voltooi. Alan Gordon, Charlie Swart, Ray Dando, Dorothy Rood en Neil Hanekom het die 75 km aangedurf. Meer as 550 deelnemers het die afstand aangedurf. Swart het skade aan ’n buiteband opgedoen en kon nie die wedren voltooi nie. Gordon het skitterend gery en in ’n tyd van 3:22:00 in die elfde plek klaargemaak. Hy het sodoende die afdeling vir senior mans gewen. Hanekom het onder die eerste tagtig deelnemers in 4:02:00 geëindig. Dorothy Rood het in 5:28:00 en Ray

Gevolglik was daar slegs twee ligawedstryde vir die jaar. Daar is baie min B-spanne by ons teenstanders beskikbaar. Die ander poel wil nie vriendskaplik teen Merensky speel nie, om te voorkom dat hulle weer teen ons moet speel wanneer die poele moet uitspeel. As enige van Merensky se spanne nie poelwenners is nie, kom hul rugbyseisoen baie vroeg tot ‘n einde — met soms tot nog vyf weke voor die seisoen eindig! Die meeste A-spanne speel ses tot sewe wedstryde, terwyl die B-spanne so min as drie wedstryde per seisoen speel. Merensky se doelwit met die nuwe dimensie ten opsigte van rugby is: Die bevordering van amateur status vir sportmanne sonder die toekenning van sportbeurse. Die ontwikkeling van alle potensiële rugbyspelers, ongeag die huidige vlak van vaardigheid of ontwikkeling. Merensky bly steeds geregistreer by Limpopo Rugby en gevolglik kan ons seuns steeds vir die Bokkie- en Cravenweek-spanne proewe speel. Die bevordering van rugby deur massadeelname om in elke ouderdomsgroep ten minste twee spanne te hê. ‘n Vol seisoen vir 2013, met sewe tuiswedstryde en vier weg-wedstryde, waaraan sowel die A- en B-spanne gaan deelneem, is reeds bevestig.

SLC churns out records at house athletics After being kept indoors by two weeks of rain in Magoebaskloof, Stanford Lake College arrived to a lovely warm Polokwane for their annual interhouse athletics event on Saturday. The day began with the 3 000 m race and saw the majority of the seniors coming out of the stands and taking part. The scores remained very tight until the exciting relays, which also saw three records broken. Mfunumo Mongwe broke the record for the 100 m hurdles for u.14 boys, setting at time of 13:15. Lalla Shipalana set a new record time of 16:70 in the 100 m hurdles for u.19 girls, while Kganya Sebatjane did the same in the 100 m hurdles for boys u.16 by setting a new time of 15:89. Chris de Jager set a new record of 12,80 m in the shotput for boys u.15, while Dewald Ludick set a new record of 11,91 m in the shotput for boys u.16. Anke Vaughan set
a new record height of 1,42 m in the highjump for girls u.14 while Graeme Hart set a new record height of 1,72 m for boys u.15. The Vavasour Cup as well as the Cheerio Trust Trophy for the best senior middle distance runner was awarded to Yusuf Cachalia, while the McGaffin Trust Trophy for the top sprinter went to Tam Johnson. The McGaffin Trust Relay Trophy went to House Orvis. Leroy Moren won the Kenney Trophy for the best senior boys discus while Dewald Ludick won the Kenney Trophy for the best junior boys discuss. Jesica Mayes won the Kenney Trophy for the best senior girls discus. The four Loubser Trophies for the Victor and Victrix Ludorums went to Mfuma Mongwe (junior Victor), Anke Vaughan (junior Victrix), Lalla Shipilana (senior Victrix) and Tam Johnson (senior Victor).
ABOVE: In front are Yusuf Cachalia, Lalla Shipilana and Mfuma Mongwe. At the back are Dewald Ludick, Jesica Mayes, Mr Craig Carolan (eadmaster), Ms Tracey McDonald (guest of honour), winning team captains of House Orvis, Jason Stroud and Jacqueline de Villiers, Tam Johnson and Anke Vaughan.
gesonde leefwyse sal ontwikkel word deur die speel van rugby. “Skoon rugbyspelers” — Merensky is reeds geaffilieer by die ‘Drug Free Sportprogram” en alle spelers sal gevolglik vir verbode middels getoets word. Die hoërskole met wie reeds ‘n ooreenkoms vir wedstryde in 2013 gesluit is: Helpmekaar, Ben Viljoen, Piet Potgieter, Rob Ferreira, PHS, Bergvlam, Frans du Toit, HTS Tom Naudé, Warmbad, Wagpos en Bekker. Voortaan gaan Merensky vriendskaplike wedstryde teen bogenoemde skole speel, sodat die “wen ten alle koste-motief” nie meer relevant is nie. Die wil en veggees om te wen sal nooit verdwyn nie, maar deur ‘n goeie balans sal die leerders maksimaal ontwikkel word en sal hul liefde vir die spel rugby ongekend groei. Ligabepalings vir ander sportsoorte: By ander sportsoorte sal die status quo gehandhaaf word en die spanne sal aan die normale ligabepalings deelneem. Hulle sal bevoordeel word deur die ekstra wedstryde wat hulle kan speel, teen die skole met wie daar ‘n ooreenkoms vir vriendskaplike wedstryde is. Francois Pienaar, Suid-Afrika se Wêreldrugbybeker-kaptein, het gesê: “Rugby leer jou waardes. Rugby bring waardes beter as enige onderwyser of ouer tuis. Dit leer jou hoe om te wen, hoe om te verloor, en hoe om as span saam te werk. Jy moet fiks wees en fiksheid verg toewyding en die aanhang van ‘n goeie waardestelsel.” Die gees van sport behels kameraderie asook respek vir opponente. • Lewer kommentaar op ons Facebook-blad

Duiwelskloof wen Lietsjietoernooi Retha Nel
retha@bulletin.us.com
Die naweek het spanne van so ver as Gauteng en Zimbabwe aan die elfde Lietsjie Rolbaltoernooi by die Tzaneen Rolbalklub deelgeneem. ‘n Volle 28 spanne wedywer jaarliks om die eerste plek, maar die meeste kom geniet die wonderlike gees wat gedurende die toernooi heers. ’n Gereelde deelnemer aan die toernooi is me Jane Rigby van Zimbabwe, die wêreld se tweede gekeurde enkelspelspeler, wat ook hierdie jaar saam met ’n span kom deelneem het. Selfs die Tzaneen Rolbalklub se oudste lid, mnr Gideon Snyman (88), het handjie bygesit en tydens die twee warm dae gesorg dat spelers altyd water byderhand het. Benewens die spel, is daar heelwat plaaslike vrugte en groente wat deelnemers huis toe geneem het en daar was volop lietsjies wat hulle tydens die toernooi geniet het. Die toernooi het op ’n gesellige noot geëin-
dig, toe die wenners, verloorders en die span wat ’n “goeie sport” was, tydens die prysuitdeling aangekondig is. Vanjaar was daar R12 000 op die spel, asook vakansiepryse van die ATKV Eiland Spa. Twee spanne van Duiwelskloof Rolbalklub het sake om die eerste plek in die premierafdeling uitgespook, wat beteken dat hulle vanjaar se toptwee is. Volgende op die Tzaneen Rolbalklub se toernooilysie is hul gewilde sakeliga. Die sakeliga is deel van die klub se projek om die gemeenskap betrokke te kry, asook om nuwe lede te werf. Die klub wil graag jongmense aanmoedig om by hulle aan te sluit. Belangstellendes kan me Yvette de Marrilac by 071 687 3255 skakel. BO REGS: Ses spanne van Duiwelskloof Rolbalklub het in hul helder hemde uitgestaan. Twee spanne het bo geëindig. Die wenspan het uit Louw Swanepoel, Ally Morrison, Doug Reed en Sue Morrison bestaan. ONDER REGS: Die naaswenners was Johan Benade, Damien Stefaans, Teneze Henrico en Zane Fanie.
Rugby by Merensky betree vanjaar ’n nuwe dimensie Rugby by die Hoërskool Merensky betree vanjaar ‘n nuwe dimensie, in ‘n stap wat getuig van dapper besluitneming in die beste belang van die skool se leerlinge. Hierdeur bring Merensky ook vir rugbygeesdriftiges en Mnr Magnus Steyn ondersteuners van die skool opwindende nuwe tuiswedstryde met ongekende verskeidenheid teen voorste skole uit ander streke. Die skoolhoof van Merensky, mnr Magnus Steyn, verduidelik die besluit breedvoerig en stapsgewys in ‘n skrywe aan ouers en die Bulletin bied dit woordeliks aan. Steyn skryf: Bernie Bitter, Direkteur van Sport Outreach Africa het gesê: “The Biblical perspective on competitiveness at school level would be to give 100% and to give God the glory. Unfortunately, that is not happening at schools. The motivation is basically to win at all cost. School sport is basically an extension of the classroom. The goal should be to prepare young men and women for life. Teachers have the responsibility to teach pupils how to win and not be boastful, and how to handle disappointment when they lose.” Merensky het in November 2012 die besluit geneem om te onttrek uit sowel die PUKReeks as die Limpopo Rugbyliga. Ouers is reeds hieroor by ‘n rugbyvergadering aan
die einde van 2012 ingelig, asook tydens die 2013-kenmekaarfunksie. Die tendens om te onttrek van formele ligas is nie enig aan Merensky nie. Groot gerekende skole wat reeds die stap gedoen het, sluit in: Michael House; Hilton College; Glenwood; Kearsney College; Durban High; Maritzburg College*; Boys High; St Stithians; St Alban’s; St John’s; King Edward High School; Jeppe Boys High; Afrikaans Hoër; Paarl Boys High*; Paul Roos Gimnasium* Rondebosch Boys High* Bishop’s College* Paarl Gimnasium* en South African College* (*= Topskole wat al talle Springbokke opgelewer het). Die redes vir die onttrekking uit die PUKreeks is: Die lang afstande na ver skole soos Lichtenburg, Standerton, Potchefstroom en andere en die hoë koste wat die vervoer en oorslaap vir ouers meegebring het. Die PUK-reeks sluit nie seunshokkie in nie, terwyl Merensky ‘n gerekende skool in seunshokkie is. Die verlies aan akademiese tyd op Vrydae, aangesien die busse vroeg reeds moes vertrek. Ons het in ‘n poel beland waarin daar geen variasie van skole was nie. Die veiligheidsrisiko vir ons kinders in busse wat laatnag op die pad was. Die redes vir die onttrekking uit die Limpopo Rugbyliga is: Daar was in 2012 slegs twee skole, die Hoërskool Frans du Toit en die Hoërskool Louis Trichardt, in ons poel. — na bl 15
Tzaneeners troef Barberton se modder Bergfietsryers van die Tzaneen Fietsryklub het die naweek aan die Barberton Bergfietswedren, die eerste wedren op die MTN Nasionale MTBreeks se kalender, gaan deelneem. Ongeveer 2 500 ryers het oor afstande van 20 km, 48 km, 75 km en 120 km meegeding. Die bewolkte weer was welkom en die son het nou en dan deur die wolke gebreek. Die onderskeie wedrenne het elkeen ’n paar moordende opdraendes gehad en met die berge rondom Barberton wat baie reën gekry het, het die deelnemers verskeie kere die riviere oorgesteek. Die bekende SA-fietsryer, Kevin Evans, en fietsryers wat aan die Olimpiese Spele in Londen deelgeneem het, Candice Neethlingh en Phillip Buys, het ook deelgeneem en is die ultrawedren oor 120 km deur Max Knox gewen. — vervolg op bl 15 REGS: Alan Gordon het die afdeling vir senior mans in die 75 km-wedren gewen.
