Boere wat waterregte uit die kanaalstelsel van die Pusela Besproeiingsraad geniet (gekoop en ook nie alte goedkoop nie) is erg bekommerd oor die raad se beweerde hopelose geldsake; en oor dreigende regsgedinge.

koms vir enigeen buiten prokureurs kon hê,” sê De Jager. In Desember 2014 het De Jager glo twee vergaderings by die Letaba Hoofbesproeiingsraad gehou, waartydens aansienlike inligting uitgepluis en ooreengekom is hoe die saak verder gevoer sou word. “Daar is egter ook ‘n sogenaamde algemene jaarvergadering van verbruikers uit die Pusela-besproeiingskanaal byeen geroep — en boere is boos omdat hulle nie behoorlik van die vergadering in kennis gestel is nie,” sê hy.
Valley, Dr Theo de Jager, sê mnr Nic Human van Pigeon Hole in Agatha het in November verlede jaar sy kommer uitgespreek oor waterregte wat hy en ander boere uit die Puselakanaal gekoop het, maar waarvan die registrasie en oordrag nie bevestig kon word nie. “Hy het my daaroor genader en ek het Beskuldigings onderneem om belanghebbendes en beskulBeskuldigings strek veel verder as slordige Bom bars digdes byeen te bring, en veral om te poog kennisgewingspraktyke, en dit blyk dat die “Die bom het gebars toe mnr Jenke Nagel, om die waterregte van benadeelde kopers te fi nansiëleen bestuurstate van die Pusela Bewat ‘n hele paar jaar lank die raad se voor- verseker. sproeiingsraad vir nege jaar agter kan wees. sitter was, se finansiële probleme aan die lig De Jager, op wie se plaas die keerwal is waar gekom het”, word gesê. “Verbandhoudend Regsaksie Die boere was skepties oor die waarskynlik- die kanaal begin, het nou blootlegging van hiermee blyk dit blyk dat daar benewens swak administrasie ook geld van die raad in heid dat ‘n regsaksie, veral een waar ‘n lik- bestuursrekords, transaksies en volumes van verkeerde bankrekenings beland het en nou widasie tot die betrokkenheid van tientalle die bestuur van die Pusela Besproeiingsraad ander skuldeisers van buite die besproeiings- geēis, en hy glo daar is genoeg rede om die verlore is,” sê boere. ‘n Bekende boer en landbouleier uit Georges raad kan lei, op enige wyse ‘n gunstige uit- raad onder kuratele bestuur te laat plaas. Bekommerde boere — en in sommige gevalle boere wat boos is — sê die raad se sake is in ‘n chaos en die bestuur staan glo bont om die finansies, toedelings, regtehouers en rekords uit te pluis. Intussen sê boere hulle betaal nou tot twee keer meer as verlede jaar vir hul water en dit maak seer!
Volgens hom het lede van die bestuur ‘n fidusiêre verpligting teenoor die raad om te verseker dat die kanaal volgens wetlike en gesonde bestuursbeginsels geadministreer word, en is dit nie voldoende om die skuld op mekaar of op ander te pak nie. Hy het ernstige vrae oor hoe swak finansiële- en administratiewe rekordhouding vir so lank deur die bestuur toegelaat kon word. In terme van die Maatskappyewet en die King 111-riglyne oor korporatiewe bestuur kan elke bestuurslid in sy/haar persoonlike hoedanigheid aanspreeklik gehou word. • Die Bulletin wou die kommentaar van die voorsitter van die Pusela-kanaalraad voor publikasie kry, oor De Jager se standpunt en mededelings; asook die kommentaar van ander belanghebbendes. Mnr Nino Burelli, die “noodgedwonge” nuutverkose voorsitter van die raad, was egter uitstedig en ons kon nie met hom vir kommentaar skakel nie, maar ons vertrou dat ons volgende week sy kommentaar oor die aangeleentheid kan publiseer.

Vlieg praat met die Volk en krap waar dit jeuk...
Vlieg moet ongelukkig, na slegs ‘n enkele aflewering, sy reeks oor goëlery onderbreek vir ‘n noodberig. Vlieg sou dit nie gedoen het as hy nie van mening was dat dit belangrik genoeg was nie; om die waarheid te sê, Vlieg dink dit is van nasionale belang. Na verlede Donderdag se debakel in Adderleystraat was Vlieg nogal ontsteld dat die burgery se fokus eerder was op die ontwrigtende chaotiese boewery (wat almal in elk geval verwag het) en afwesige selfoonseine, as op die belangrikste gebeurtenis van die dag. Dit moes V.I. (Vlieg’s Insiens) gewees het op die rammetjie-uitnek, traak-my-nie-agtige, en skynheilige Jacob, wat lekker gesit en lag en vermakerige opmerkinkies te maak gehad het, terwyl hy in der waarheid niks by te dra gehad het om die stand van die nasie te bevorder nie. Dit is na Vlieg se mening die grootste vernedering vir ons land. Waarop Vlieg toe afkom op ‘n pragtige Nederlandse verhaaltjie, die oorsprong waarvan Vlieg nie seker is nie, en die titel ook nie, maar Vlieg bied graag erkenning aan waar dit nodig mag wees. Lees gerus die oorspronklike teks, of Vlieg se alternatiewe (in hakies). Een heus en waar gebeurd verhaal kan ik u vertellen, luister maar! Op een zekere avond begaf Karel zich te rusten (Karel: lees Jacob) in Ingelheim aan de Rijn (lees Nkandla aan de KZN). Het gehele land was in zijn bezit, hij was er koning en ook keizer. Hoor nu, wonderbaarlijk maar waar, wat de koning daar is overkomen — menigeen weet het nog precies — in Ingelheim, waar hij lag te slapen en waar hij van plan was de volgende dag in zijn hoedanigheid van vorst een hofdag te houden om zijn roem te vergroten. Terwijl de koning lag te slapen, sprak er een heilige engel tot hem, zodat de koning wakkerschrok door de woorden die de engel sprak. Die zei: ‘Sta op, edele heer! Trek snel uw kleren aan, bewapen u en ga uit stelen — God gaf mij opdracht u dit te bevelen — de Heer van het hemelrijk — anders zult u uw leven én uw aanzien verliezen. Als u vannacht niet het dievenpad opgaat, zal het u slecht vergaan. U zult sterven, u zult uw leven verliezen, nog vóór uw hof uiteengaat. Welnu, wees dus op uw hoede. Ga uit stelen, alstublieft.

‘Gods gebod en Zijn woorden wil ik niet negeren. Ik zal dief worden, al is dat een schande, zelfs al kom ik ervoor aan de galg. Maar toch had ik veel liever dat God mij alles zou afnemen wat ik van hem in leen houd, zowel mijn kastelen als mijn rijk, behalve dan mijn wapenrusting, en dat ik dan in mijn onderhoud moest voorzien met mijn schild en mijn speer, als iemand die niets bezit en die leeft op de bonnefooi. Dat zou ik liever willen dan zoals nu verstrikt te zijn en het dievenpad op te moeten gaan zonder enige vorm van uitstel. Uit stelen gaan of God gunst verliezen… Nu moet U mij kracht geven! Ik wilde dat ik maar alvast buiten stond zonder enig gerucht of lawaai, ook al zou het me zeven van mijn fraaie burchten en kastelen langs de Rijn kosten. (KZN) Hoe kan ik deze schande uitleggen aan de ridders en de hoge heren die hier aan het hof aanwezig zijn? Wat zal mijn verklaring zijn voor het feit dat ik in deze donkere nacht alleen, zonder hulp van wie dan ook, uit rijden ga in een landstreek die mij totaal vreemd en onbekend is?’ Na deze woorden begon koning Karel (Jacob) zich gereed te maken en te kleden in zijn kostbare gewaad, klaar om uit stelen te gaan. Het was zijn gewoonte dat zijn wapenrusting werd neergelegd naast het bed waarin hij sliep. Het was de mooiste wapenrusting die men ooit zag. Zodra hij gewapend was, liep hij door het kasteel; geen enkele deur of slot, hoe sterk ook, hield hem tegen, ze waren allemaal voor hem geopend. Hij kon gaan waar hij maar wilde. Niemand zag hem, want iedereen lag vast te slapen, zoals God dat wilde. Dat deed Hij uit genegenheid voor de koning. Zijn hulp stond hem ter beschikking. Nadat Karel de slotbrug was overgestoken, (Jacob) liep hij ongemerkt naar de stallen, waar hij zijn paard (Range Rover) en het paardentuig wist. Hij talmde niet langer, zadelde zijn paard en besteeg het prijzenswaardige rijdier. Toen hij kwam aanrijden bij de kasteelpoort, ontwaarde hij daar de torenwachter en de poortwachter, die er geen flauw idee van hadden dat hun heer zo dichtbij was, met schild en al. Ze waren diep in slaap, zo God het wilde. De koning steeg af, opened de poort, die vergrendeld was, en leidde zijn paard naar buiten zonder ook maar het minste gerucht te maken. Vlieg dink hy verstaan die “koning” nou beter. Menige “hospitaal” en gevangenis is vol van mense wat na “engele” geluister het! Staan sterk Vliegvolk! Staan sterk!

Neem uw speer en uw schild, bewapen u en klim snel op uw paard, wacht niet langer!’ De koning had alles aangehoord. Het leek hem nogal vreemd en omdat hij niemand zag, wist hij niet wat die woorden te betekenen hadden. Hij meende ze in zijn slaap te hebben gehoord, besteedde er verder geen aandacht meer aan en verzette zijn gedachten. Degene die de boodschap gebracht had, de door God gezonden engel, sprak op boze toon tot de koning: ‘Sta op, Karel, en ga uit stelen, (Jacob) — ik verzwijg niets voor u, God heeft het u zojuist geboden — anders kost het u het leven.’ Met die woorden zweeg de engel en de koning riep uit: ‘Wee mij!’ op zeer onthutste toon, ‘wat is dit toch voor wonderbaarlijks? Word ik gekweld door boze geesten die mij dit allemaal vertellen? Ach, hemelse Heer, waarom zou ik toch genoodzaakt zijn uit stelen te gaan? Ik ben schatrijk. Er is geen mens op de gehele wereld, geen koning noch graaf, die zo vermogend is als ik, of ze moeten me allemaal onderdanig zijn en mij ten dienste staan. Mijn eigen rijk is zó groot dat men nergens zijn gelijke kent. Het gehele land behoort aan mij van Keulen aan de Rij (Kwazulu aan de Indies oseaan) tot aan Rome toe, (Alexanderbaai) alles behoort aan de keizer. Ik ben vorst, mijn vrouw is vorstin, (vrouwen) van de onstuimige Donau in het oosten (Indien oseaan) tot de wilde zee in het westen. En ik bezit nog veel meer: Galicië en Spanje (Tshwane en Kaap de Goeie Hoop) dat ik eigenhandig heb veroverd en waaruit ik de heidenen verdreef, zodat het land alleen mij toebehoort. Waarom zou het dan noodzakelijk zijn dat ik ga stelen als een armzalig man? Waarom gebiedt God mij dit? Ik ga niet graag tegen zijn gebod in. Als ik zeker wist dat het zijn bevel is, dan nog kan ik maar moeilijk geloven dat God mij de schande zou aandoen om te moeten gaan stelen.’ Terwijl Karel zo lag te piekeren (Jacob) en alles van alle kanten overwoog, sukkelde hij weer wat in slaap, zodat hij de ogen sloot. Toen sprak de engel als te voren: ‘Wanneer u niet luistert naar Gods gebod, koning, dan bent u verloren, het zal u het leven kosten.’ De engel uit het hemels paradijs zei: ‘Koning, wees verstandig, ga uit stelen, word dief, omdat het God welgevallig is.’ Met die woorden ging de engel heen en Karel sloeg een kruis, (Jacob) om al het wonderbaarlijke dat hij had gehoord.

Comments awaited on Tzn Dam plan The water of a government waterworks like the Tzaneen Dam and the surrounding state-owned land may be made available for recreational purposes, either generally or for a specific purpose, on the conditions determined by the minister. This is the mandate given in Section 113 of the National Water Act for a professional service provider, Engineerex, appointed by the department of water and sanitation (DWS) to compile a resource management plan (RMP) to protect the dam’s future. Stakeholders and interested parties in Tzaneen are invited to contribute
towards the compilation of the RDP before it will be finalized and gazetted within eight months. It does not involve any drastic new developments for the dam and surroundings, but will allow for greater community participation to unlock socio-economical potential for recreational use. The RDP is essential for protecting the water resource, to eradicate invasive alien species and assuring water quality. Other threats to be controlled are over-development, pollution and the presence of hippo’s and crocodiles. Opportunities are seen in job
Kunstenaars tree op vir Marcelle Openbare ondersteuning stroom steeds in vir Marcelle van Vuuren, die haarstilis van Tzaneen, wat op 20 Desember ernstig in ‘n motorongeluk beseer is. Sy het albei haar bene sedertdien verloor en geld word nou ingesamel vir prostese wat sy vorentoe nodig sal hê. Op 18 April sal verskeie kunstenaars op die rugbyveld in Tzaneen optree, in ‘n vertoning wat ten bate van Marcelle aangebied word. Onder die kunstenaars is Pieter Smit (Stukkie van der Merwe), Jan Rhaap, Chantelle en ander wat nog aangekondig sal word. Gaste kan hul eie piekniekmandjie en drinkgoed saambring, terwyl boereworsrolle en drinkgoed ook beskikbaar sal wees. Twintig tafels wat sitplek vir tien mense bied, sal teen R300 per persoon beskikbaar wees, terwyl kaartjies vir mense wat hul eie stoele bring, R150 sal wees.

• Daar word glo ook voorgegee die brandstof is op waneer die voorraad laag is, en net sekere begunstigdes word dan glo gehelp. Anders as met ‘n motor kan ‘n vlieënier nie net om die hoek na ‘n ander vulstasie gaan nie. Lede van die lugvaartgemeenskap in en om Tzaneen wil nou eis dat dat nog ‘n brandstofvoorsiener by die vliegveld moet kom, eerder dat net op een depot staatgemaak word. Van die vlieëniers met wie ons gepraat het, weier om kommentaar te lewer of om geïdentifiseer te word. Hulle sê hulle is skrikkerig vir viktimisering. Tans word verskeie misdade by die vliegveld deur die SA Polisidiens ondersoek, onder meer van diefstal, bedrog, inbrake by vliegtuie en ander. Maritz besit ook die werkwinkel en die vliegskool by die Tzaneen Vliegveld. Ons het Woensdag met hom probeer skakel vir kommentaar. Sy telefoon is nie beantwoord nie en ons het later vasgestel dat hy moontlik uitstedig (in die Noord-Kaap) kan wees. Eweneens was die GTM se woordvoerder ook nie Woensdag beskikbaar nie. Ons sal voortgaan om met hom op te volg, vir die GTM se kommentaar oor die toedrag van sake by die vliegveld.

Yet another 18-year-old, from Mogapeng Village in the Maake policing area, was sentenced to ten years imprisonment by the Naphuno Magistrate Court for raping a 15-year-old girl in 2014. He reportedly forcefully entered the girl’s house and raped her.
Three Somali men arrested
Two Somali men (sitting in front) were arrested for possessing an unlicensed firearm and another one (right) for possessing
dangerous weapons (knives). Behind them are the Police officers who arrested the men.
Two Somali males aged 24 were arrested for possessing an unlicensed firearm and another one for possessing a dangerous weapon at a shop known as Mmakgeletsi in Tickeyline Village, Lenyenye. The police reportedly approached the Somali
nationals after receiving a tip-off about their possession of an unlicensed firearm. A CZ85 pistol with 8 rounds was found in their possession. The police appeal to all members of the community to report criminal activities in their areas.
Ex MM takes GTM to CCMA Tzaneen’s sacked municipal manager, Mr Masiye Mankabidi, who earned close to a million Rand “at home” since his suspension on 4 April 2014, has allegedly some unfinished financial matters to be settled by the council of the GTM. He is taking his dismissal on 30 January this year from the GTM to the Council for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration (CCMA). He declared a dispute on 2 February and also referred the matter to the SA Local Government Bargaining Council.
This means that any activity relating to advertising the vacant position of municipal manager will be withheld until all legal processes have been exhausted. Mankabidi’s dismissal followed after a disciplinary hearing during which he was charged for various offences relating to financial misconduct. After he left, the position of MM was temporarily filled by Mr Obi Mkombo, but was later replaced by the chief financial officer, Ms Nora Lion, in an acting capacity.
Fraud case against manager remanded The case against the Mopani District Municipality’s former director of water services and infrastructure, Ms
Itumeleng Charmaine Letwaba, has been remanded. Letwaba, who is facing nine counts of fraud, re-appeared in
the Tzaneen Magistrate Court during the week. She will appear again in July. She is currently out on R50 000 bail.

Ramble held for charity
Saturday of the Berry Festival and 22 teams, each with four members, took part. Clues took them from the village cemetery, where they had to count plaques on the Wall of Remembrance, to Stanford Lake College where they had to chip a golf ball closest to the marker. Other tasks included “fishing” blindfold for a magnetic team fish at Bramasole, tasting a Brazilian cocktail called Caipirinha at the

The matter will be taken back to the hawkers association and we shall monitor the process. Question: How many estimated hawkers are in Tzaneen and how many have legal permits to trade? Answer: We are estimating more than hundred hawkers and we have permitted only 41 hawkers. Question: Why are the new kiosks (behind the old Checkers building) not yet operational? When will they officially open for trading by the hawkers? Answer: We handed over the kiosk to the hawkers on 26 November 2014. However, there are some few minor touched ups left now such as steps, fencing, etc. We are hoping that by the first or second week of February 2015, all matters will by then completed. Question: Will the other hawkers on the site then be told to move? If so, whereto? Answer: Currently we are unable to accommodate extra hawkers due to lack of space. Any hawker operating without a license is doing so on her/his own risk. The municipality is not liable to offer any space to the removed hawkers.
There were driving tasks whereby teams counted the numbers of left bends up or down the Magoebaskloof Pass, looking out for the names on the bridge over the Tzaneen Dam and a host of other tasks. The teams were given names of cars and bikes and there were prizes for several teams and a prize for the team that came last.
• It is sad to hear the GTM saying that they estimate more than one hundred hawkers are trading of which only 41 have permits. The question now is: Why are people allowed to openly ignore and challenge the law? What is being done or what is planned to restore law and order? We will ask the GTM to comment further. — Editor.

In first place was the Alfa Romeo team. From left are Mr Mark and Ms Carla Greenland with Ms Tercia and Mr Philip Jansen van Vuuren. They won Magoebaskloof Canopy Tour Vouchers.
Police and traffic officers used their powers to clamp down on illegal hawkers in Tzaneen untill about two years ago. These days no law enforcement seems to be done and the hawkers grow in numbers almost daily.
Die motorwagte wat daagliks by die Tzaneen Lifestyle-sentrum in die parkeergebied diens doen, het ordentlike hoede vir die erge somerson gekry, nuwe broeke en nuwe T-hemde. Dit het gevolg op navrae deur die Bulletin oor hul lot en nadat ons vasgestel het dat hulle R120 per week moet betaal, vir die voorreg om daar as motorwagte te werk. Die wagte leef uitsluitlik van fooi-
tjies wat hulle van motoriste ontvang. Hulle pas nie slegs motors op nie, maar help mense om parkeerplek te vind, help met die verkeer as motoriste in of uit parkeerruimtes beweeg, bring winkelwaentjies nader vir mense wat inkopies gaan doen en help dan weer om die winkelwaentjies na die motor te stoot en die goedere in die motor te laai. Hulle werk vir ‘n sekuriteitsmaatskappy wat die kontrak het om die terrein te beveilig. Ons wou navraag doen by die eienaar van die sekuriteitsmaatskappy, maar hy
het ons vermy. Ons het egter vir die wagte gevra wat hulle kry en ons is toe meegedeel dat hulle niks ontvang nie en die R120 per week moet betaal. Twee dae later het die eienaar/bestuurder van die maatskappy, wat glo van Nkowankowa af werk, opgedaag met die nuwe uitrustings vir die wagte. Een van die senior wagte, mnr Peter Bopape, sê hulle is baie dankbaar dat die Bulletin gesorg het dat hulle “uniforms” gekry het (veral die hoede) en hulle hoop Bopape nou dat hulle ook voor die einde van die reënseisoen reënjasse sal kry.

Raaiselagtig Vir baie inwoners van Tzaneen wemel die Groter Tzaneen Munisipaliteit se sake van raaiselagtighede. En hoe meer mense moet raai, hoe meer lyk dit of die amptenare van die GTM self ook maar aan die raai is oor die munisipaliteit se sake. Ons berig elders oor die antwoorde van die GTM se woordvoerder op vrae van ons. Oor wat nou presies aan die gang is met die smouse (informele handelaars) wat die dorp stelselmatig beset, hulselwers met hul goedere neerplak net waar dit hulle behaag en die wet in eie hande neem, sê die woordvoerder hulle het ook nie antwoorde nie. Hulle is nie eens seker hoeveel onwettige smouse in die dorp handel dryf nie, maar hulle doen duidelik ook niks om die oortreders op een of ander wyse tot orde te roep nie. Die R71 wat deur die dorp loop, is eweneens ‘n geheime affêre. Die pad behoort aan die Roads Agency Limpopo (dis ‘n nasionale pad). As dit hulle pas, soos om boetes in te samel vir die provinsie se dorp wat die res met verkeersboetes uitstof, sê die GTM hulle het jurisdiksie oor die pad. Hulle deel ook links en regs permitte uit om smouse langs die pad toe te laat. Pas dit hulle nie, sê hulle dit is de provinsie se pad. Salomo se wysheid is nodig vir dié lot...

Buig om te drink
And then apologise for causing CONVENIENCE!
In die hoek van ‘n hotelportaal was daar ’n meganiese fontein en bokant die fontein het ’n bord gehang wat sê: “Buig en drink”. ’n Dorstige handelsreisiger het die portaal binnegestap en sy hand uitgesteek, om die fontein oop te draai, maar daar was geen handvatsel nie. Hy soek toe ’n skakelaar of meganisme, maar kry niks nie. Toe lees hy weer die uitnodiging bokant die fontein en met ’n verleë glimlaggie buig hy versigtig vorentoe, toe nog ’n bietjie en nog so ’n bietjie — en ja, waarlik, heerlike koue water begin vloei. Die fontein word deur ’n elektroniese “oog” beheer. Sodra iemand buig en voor die “oog” beweeg, vloei water uit die kraan. In die Bybel word water as beeld om die geestelike lewe te beskryf oorvloedig
gebruik. “…wie in My glo, sal nooit weer dors kry nie” (Joh.6:35). “As iemand dors het, laat hy na My toe kom en drink!”(Joh.7:37). “…die Lam wat in die middel van die troon is, sal hulle herder wees en hulle na die fonteine met die water van die lewe lei…” (Openb.7:17). En elkeen wat dors het, moet kom; elkeen wat die water van die lewe wil hê, moet dit kom kry, verniet!” (Openb.22:17). Om by die water wat die Here Jesus gee uit te kom, hoef ’n mens nie met inspanning na bo te klim nie. Fonteinwater word bereik wanneer ’n mens laag buig of kniel. ’n Mens hoef nie eers iets lofwaardigs of moeitevol te doen, om die ewige lewe wat die Heilige Gees in jou hart gee te ontvang nie. Kom in gebed na die Here Jesus toe; vra, neem en glo. Jy ontvang direk die lewende water in jou hart.
Probleemgedrag Vandag verskyn die agtste aflewering in ‘n reeks deur Me Margie van Tonder oor spelterapie. Vandag vra sy of jy jou kind ken. Kontak haar by 084 414 6166 of 015 307 5029 vir navrae. Probleemgedrag moet beskou word as ‘n simptoom van iets of ‘n noodkreet deur die kind. Die kind wil iets sê of kommunikeer deur middel van probleemgedrag. Dit is die terapeut se taak om die boodskap te ontsyfer en so die moontlike oorsaak van die gedrag te bepaal. Terapie word gebruik om probleemgedrag om te keer in positiewe gedrag. Hoe vroeër in ‘n kind se lewe ingegryp word na probleemgedrag, hoe makliker kan gedragsverandering plaasvind. Indien te lank getalm word, word hierdie gedrag ‘n ge-
woonte en moeiliker om van ontslae te raak. Tipes gedrag Gedrag word meesal as probleemgedrag beskou as die ge-drag gereeld voorkom. Hoe ander op dié gedrag reageer, kan bepaal of dit probleemgedrag is of word. Gedrag soos bednatmaak, broek vuilmaak, aggressie, aandagprobleme, nagmerries — en by jonger kinders word byt, gil en ‘tantrums’ dikwels probleemgedrag genoem. By ‘n jong kind kan dié gedrag as normaal beskou word, as dit nie aanhoudend voorkom nie (of met negatiewe reaksie versterk word nie). Antisosiale gedrag by ouer kinders soos steel, leuens, intimidering en wrede gedrag teenoor mens en dier kan ook hier genoem word. Oorsake Die kind se omgewing,
naamlik enkelouergesinne, gesinne met te veel verandering, te streng of outo-ritêre ouers, te groot ge-sinne, armoede, ouerlike verwerping, asook eksperimentering deur die kind self, kan alles ‘n rol speel in die vorming van probleemgedrag. Gevolge Hulpverlening in die vorm van terapie is belangrik en veral by kinders met antisosiale gedrag, aangesien hulle veral mag neig na depressie, selfmoord en middelgebruik (drank en dwelms). Terapie moet die kind help met aanpassing in die samelewing en aanpassing in sy unieke situasie. Die kind met probleemgedrag ontbreek sekere vaardighede om aan te pas en terapie kan daarmee help. Samewerking tussen ouers, skool en terapeut, verhoog die sukses van terapeutiese intervensie.
Morals for who, for what and why? I believe I have been vocal of my disregard for morals, even on this column. For one, moral values are diverse. We are a diverse species with diverse cultures and beliefs. Even highly regarded codes of courtesy come in different forms for different people. A friend (white) once pointed to me that although Western cultures largely give women precedence when going through doorways (hence the phrase ‘ladies first’), African cultures largely practise the opposite. I commented that it is very likely that in most African cultures men would take precedence when mov-
ing into territories, to make sure the area is without threat. I, however, stand corrected as my own cultural experience is a highly colonised version, but it becomes amazing how African men could be then criticised for not giving women precedence when going through doorways. Culture imperialism is surely a serious problem in this case. Moreover, for the most part, moral values are arguably a tool of oppression and tend to be biased. I grew up in a partly conservative family. Foul language was heavily discouraged – like, ‘we’d get a hid-

ing for it’ discouraged. It was not until my late teens, or early twenties even, that I realised that actually, all grown-ups swear, even in my own family. It then seemed like one of those things you are not allowed to do until you are older. In other words, moral values are things you keep until you reach a certain age or beliefs ‘grown-ups’ use to oppress children or young people from enjoying the same freedom of speech. Furthermore, I previously dis-
cussed slut-shaming and how sexuality is often chastised in women to discourage promiscuity, whereas the opposite is preached to men. In this case, I dare say moralistic values of sexuality are preached to women to deny them the same freedom to sexuality as men. Hence, moral values are not only used to oppress young people, but they are also used to oppress women. The same can be said about foul language. I cannot say how many times I have heard people say to women, it is unladylike to use foul language — even to us black women, who arguably should not even
be subscribing to the same standards of Western ladyship. I dare also say there is a whole lot less pressure for men’s vocabulary to be clean and blameless. Even more, as bilingual people will know, it is often easy to swear in one language (often the one with the more prestige) than it is in the other (the one with less prestige). I doubt any of this is based solely on beliefs within each linguistic culture. It arguably results from a classist system set to censor the freedom of the less socially privileged. In my opinion, moral values are meant only for the marginalised; not to shape, mould and whatnot, but to oppress, censor and deny access.

Yolanda is now helping others Rare Disease Day: show you care The Rare Disease Society of South Africa (RDSSA), a community association that offers patient care and support, will continue the success of its annual fundraising event, Rare Disease Day, on Saturday next week (28 February) across the globe. The initiative acknowledges the plight of rare disease patients and their respective families whose lives have been impacted by rare disorders and encourages the public to partake in collective action by purchasing and wearing a ‘Jeans for Genes’ ribbon to work or school on Friday next week (27 February). Rare disease patient Yolanda Botha (31), formerly from Tzaneen, was diagnosed with Ataxia in 2014. She currently resides in Parys in the Free State. Also known as cerebellar degeneration, Ataxia is a genetic mutation that alters the normal production of specific proteins that are necessary for the survival of neurons and as a result the nerve cells in the cerebellum, the area of the brain that controls coordination and balance, deteriorate and die. Typically, impaired coordination of hands, arms, and legs, and slurring of speech are common symptoms. Yolanda was initially misdiagnosed with sinusitis. In 2014 doctors discovered, by way of neurological evaluation that she had Ataxia. It was only then that she could receive the correct treatment and care for her fading health.
Before she was diagnosed, she moved to Johannesburg to pursue a career as a sales account manager. She lost her job when she developed a speech impediment, a side effect of her rare genetic condition. Her employers suspected that she was using alcohol and illegal substances on the job and subsequently she resigned after a disciplinary hearing to avoid unfair dismissal. In truth, she was struggling to speak because of her condition and she has since struggled to find permanent work. Yolanda now lives with her parents in Parys. To d a y, Yolanda is a rare disease rep- resentative who works closely with the RDSSA to help others who have rare diseases. She is writing a book about living with her condition and making charity bracelets to create awareness for rare disease patients in South Africa. This year’s theme, ‘Living with a Rare Disease’, advocates solidarity and togetherness and the RDSSA is urging the community and broader public to be an ambassador for Rare Disease Day. “Though they have different names and symptoms, rare disorders impact the daily lives of patients and families in similar ways. The RDSSA is a crucial source of information, experience and resources, and presents a united voice for the treatment, care, and services needed for patients as well as communicating a unified message of the daily challenges of living with a rare disorder,” says Kelly du Plessis,
7
founder and chairperson of the RDSSA. The RDSSA is a beacon of hope for families affected by rare diseases and provides the resources for medical care and practical aid for individuals suffering from life-threatening diseases. “Our acknowledgement and investment can contribute significantly to improving rare disease patients’ quality of life. With timely and accurate diagnosis and intervention, people with rare diseases can contribute significantly and positively towards our society,” states Du Plessis. Members of the public and rare disease community are urged to donate R10 by purchasing a ‘Jeans for Genes’ denim ribbon (details listed on www. rarediseases.co.za) and wear their ribbon and favourite jeans on Friday 27 February, or SMS ‘Rare’ to 38232 to help raise funds for individuals living with rare diseases.

Die skoolsaal en omgewing was ‘n fees vir die oog, met rooi en wit vlaggies, kleurvolle balonne en lanterns wat die atmosfeer vir ‘n heerlike Valentynsdans die aand geskep het. Die geur van springmielies het die lug gevul en die Vossies het die aand weggedans.

Gustav Booysen en Philip Bester het ook 2 paaltjies elk geneem. Die o.15A-span moes met 30 lopies die knie buig teen Rustenburg. Nadat Ben Vorster die loot gewen het, het hulle Rustenburg gevra om eerste te kolf. Rustenburg het ‘n baie verdedigbare 191 lopies, almal uit, aangeteken.
Die bybreekbouler Wilco J van Rensburg het sy eerste 5 paaltjies as hoërskoolspeler geneem. Hy is goed bygestaan deur die nuweling en openingsbouler, Fumani Maluleleke, met 3 paaltjies. Die o.15A’s het die telling moedig bly jaag, maar kon nie die knoop deurhak nie. Hulle is beperk tot 161 almal uit. Kaptein Roehan Steenkamp het saam met die middelorde kolwer Gideon Vorster 36 lopies elk aangeteken.

Berry Festival delights tourists
Riesl 083 407 8061
Saxophonist Joseph Baloyi from Nkowankowa.
Parking and overnight accommodation was at a premium in the village of Haenertsburg as tourists flocked to the Berry Festival over the weekend. Berries and raspberries were picked at several farms along the Magoebaskloof and for the fit there was a trial run and a Rotary Ramble on the Saturday. Ms Linda Miller, one of the co-ordinators, sold not only blueberries but prickly pears as well. The village spilled over with food stalls offering delights such as tapas from Mina’s owner Ms Denise Tooley, and an excellent curry and rice while the smells of boerewors on a braai wafted across the open park in Rissik Street. All the restaurants offered something in the blueberry line and Lizzie’s Famous Apple and Blueberry Pie at the Pot & Plow was a great hit. A brief downpour could not dampen the jovial atmosphere. As soon as the sun came out, children took off their shoes and delighted in splashing through the puddles. Ms Amanda Smith from Safari Wines in Hoedspruit was ready with a smile and an offering of a glass of her company’s latest wines. Saxophonist Mr Joseph Baloyi from Nkowankowa played for the crowds. When asked his age, he said he didn’t really know but he thought he was born in 1940. Sue Ettmayr sue@bulletin.us.com

Problems families face today
Leading up to the in-depth Bulletin series on substance abuse, is a look at dysfunctional families. Mr Carel Mouton, involved with the SAPC (Substance Abuse Prevention Centre, under the leadership of Mr Pieter Geldenhuys), is the National Director of the NGO Limpopo Mental Health Society in Tzaneen. Mouton says that dysfunctional families are an age-old problem and have always been part of society. In our modern society we are experiencing an increase in dysfunctional family dynamics due to a variety of problems. A factor contributing to the dysfunctionality of families is the disintegration of norms and values on a personal and family level. The focus of values and norms has changed from the family as a whole to the needs of the individual. A person’s values are now based on material possessions and not family ties.
The change of focus leads to an increase in personal stress and dysfunctional relationships. Trust and respect disintegrate within these family relationships and marriages could end up in divorce. A modern contributor to dysfunctional families is Mouton technology. We WhatsApp, BBM and email each other instead of meeting and speaking eyeball to eyeball. Technological gadgets and their applications enable us to communicate when, where and with whom we want, but these forms of communication are limited to cryptic messages without any observation of real emotions.
Children and adults are not able to express their emotions anymore, which leads to angry outbursts and other negative behaviour. Without emotional communication, people do not get a sense of belonging in a family. Insufficient emotional communication leads to situations where a person is not able to recognise or deal with his/her own emotions and life-related stress. This increases the chances of getting involved in substance abuse and other dysfunctional behaviour. Mouton says families need to restructure and look at their family values. This can only be achieved through trust and respect and open communication within the family. The different generations within families need to become aware of and challenge dys-

functional behaviour, and believe in their own family system. For example, if a teenager fell pregnant at 16, reality provides that it’s likely that her child will also fall pregnant at a young age. This cycle can be broken, but usually only if the child makes a conscious decision to break this cycle. This will ensure that dysfunctional behaviour will not be duplicated from one generation to another. According to Mouton, dysfunctional families can improve themselves if family members starts valuing their relationships and taking responsibility for it. This is the reality of today’s society. Technology, ambitions and desires should not be shunned, but one must always maintain a healthy balance between these and one’s values and norms. — Sue Ettmayr sue@bulletin.us.com
Herv Kerk stel feite
VW se mini-motortjie, die UP!, is hier en verlede Saterdagoggend kon mense hier plaaslik die eerste “gevoel” van die kleinding kry. In Europa is die motorjie reeds baie gewild, as stadsmotor en ook as intreevlakmodel vir mense wat hul eerste motor wil aanskaf. Getrou aan VW se hoë standaarde is die bougehalte van die motor, die afwerking en die ekstras beslis indrukwekkend. Die vervaardiger maak ook aanspraak op ‘n baie “gesonde” brandstofverbruik, wat die motortjie uiters ekonomies maak. Hier staan mnre Franna Lamprecht en Kobie van Deventer en agter die motortjie mnre Ernest Mampeule en Dawie van Niekerk, verkoopsmanne by Lannie Motors in Tzaneen, Saterdag by die bekendstelling van die nuweling.
Inligting oor ‘n kompetisie wat saamval met die Rugbywêreldbeker later vanjaar en deur die Laeveld-gemeente (Modjadjiskloof en omstreke) van die Nederduitsch Hevormde Kerk aangebied word, is in goedertrou deur ‘n lidmaat van die gemeente aan die Bulletin deurgegee en ons het dit so in goedertrou gepubliseer. Die kompetisieprys (teen R100 per kaartjie) is ‘n geleentheid vir vier mense om die Rugbywêreldbekerwedstryde van 1 Oktober tot 1 November in Brittanje by te woon. Ingesluit by die prys is kaartjies vir twee poelwedstryde, die kwarteind-, halfeind- en die eindstryd, terwyl dit ook vliegtuigkaartjies, verblyf en openbare vervoer in Brittanje insluit. Die wenner kan òf die toernooi gaan bywoon òf R200 000 in
kontant aanvaar. Mnr Tarek Jansen, die projekvoorsitter vir die kompetisie, sê die verkeerde indruk is gewek dat die wenner die toer én die prysgeld sou ontvang. Mense wat meer inligting verlang, kan hom by 079 352 1419 skakel. Die gemeente se vorige leraar, ds Gerhard Viviers, het ‘n beroep na Wolmaransstad aanvaar en nie na Warrenton nie. Die kerkraad is reeds in die proses om ‘n nuwe leraar vir die gemeente te beroep. Jansen sê ook die gemeente is beslis nie besig om finansieel ten gronde te gaan en om dalk by die NHK se gemeente in Tzaneen in te skakel nie. Ds Richard van der Westhuizen van die Tzaneen-gemeente staan wel die gemeente en die kerkraad as konsulent by, maar slegs totdat hulle weer ‘n eie predikant het en hy is nie andersins betrokke nie.

Oppie Kassie On the Telly Met ʼn botteltjie goeie oogdruppels en genoeg te ete en te drinke sal talle sportliefhebbers dié naweek ʼn verstommende verskeidenheid wedstryde en byeenkomste op televisie probeer dophou. Baie van die sport word eers laataand en voordag regstreeks uitgesaai, maar beloof soveel opwinding dat die ondersteuners dit eenvoudig nie wil misloop nie. Soos die Wêreldbeker-krieket tussen Suid-Afrika en Indië wat Sondagoggend kort na Hekkie Budler se boksgeveg in Monte Carlo begin. Die sewe Superrugbywedstryde, waarin al die SA spanne betrokke is, word ook van soggens vroeg tot saans kort duskant slaaptyd uitgesaai. Saterdagaand se stryd tussen die Sharks en die Lions kan dalk die hoogtepunt van die naweek se rugby wees. Op ʼn ander vlak, maar ewe opwindend vir die belanghebbendes, is daar ‘n kragmeting tussen Villagers van Worcester en Evergreens United wat mekaar in die reeks om die Gemeenskapsbeker bydam. Die spelers en hul ondersteuners sal ook op SuperSport te sien wees. Motorfietsrenne in Australië, fietsry in Frankryk en atletiek in Engeland sal ongetwyfeld ook skouspelagtige vertonings oplewer. SuperSport-hoogtepunte (Alles regstreeks) Vrydag 20 Februarie Gholf: Northern Trust-ope, dag 1, Kalifornië – 00:00 tot 03:00 op SS 1 Indiese Ope, dag 2, NieuDelhi – 07:30 tot 09:30 en 11:00 tot 14:00 op SS 5 Fietsry: Baan-wêreldkampioenskappe, dag 3, Parys – 19:50 tot 23:30 op SS 5 Krieket: Wêreldbeker: Nieu-Seeland t Engeland – 02:45 tot 11:15 op SS 2 en GDN, Pakistan t Windies – 23:45 tot 08:15 op SS 2 en GDN Rugby: Superrugby: Chiefs t Brumbies – 08:00 tot 10:30 op SS 1, Rebels t Waratahs – 10:30 tot 13:00 op SS 1 en GDN, Bulls t Hurricanes – 18:30 tot 21:30 op SS 1 en M-Net Engelse Premierliga: Newcastle t Wasps – 21:40 tot 23:45 op SS 1 en GDN Sokker: Nedbankbeker: Amazulu t Golden Arrows – 19:30 tot 22:30 op SS 4 Tennis: Rio-ope, dag 4 – 01:00 tot 03:00 op SS 6, kwarteind – 19:30 tot 01:30 op SS 6 Doebai-kampioenskap, vroue-halfeind – 15:00 tot 19:00 op SS 6 Saterdag 21 Februarie Atletiek: Binnenshuise byeenkoms, Birmingham – 15:30 tot 18:30 op SS 9 Boks: Donovan Dennis t Steve Vukosa (middelgewigte), VSA – 04:00 tot 06:00 op SS 7, Monte Carlo: Hekkie Budler t Jesus Silvestre, strooigewigtitels en Martin Murray t Gennady Golovkin, middelgewig – 21:30 tot 02:00 op SS 9 Gholf: Northern Trust-ope, dag 2 – 00:00 tot 03:00 op SS 1 Northern Trust-ope, dag 3 – 21:30 tot 01:00 op SS 1 Indiese Ope, dag 3 – 09:00 tot 13:00 op SS 5 Fietsry: Baan-wêreldkampioenskappe, dag 4 – 19:50 tot 23:10 op SS 8 Krieket: Wêreldbeker: Australië t Bangladesj – 05:15 tot 13:45 op SS 6 en 08:15 tot 13:45 op SS 2, Afganistan t Sri Lanka – 23:45 tot 04:30 op SS 2 en 23:45 tot 08:30 op SS 6 Motorfietsrenne: Super-

Gogga maak vir baba bang
• Potch trek kop uit vs Letaba Stanford Lake College played Curro Heuwelkruin in a Pro 20 cricket match. Heuwelkruin won the toss and decided to bat first. They got off to a good start but a superior spell of bowling from Jason Wright and Justin Trueman pulled their score back, bowling them
out for 135. Stanford openers, Matthew Maritz and Conrad Schmidt (Matthew scoring 59*and batting through the innings), set up the final result of a 7 wicket win. Matthew was well supported by Graeme Harty who notched up 29. Seen in the photo are SLC’s first eleven. Merensky High School is extremely proud of the newly formed Merensky MTB club. Five members competed in the Makhulu5 MTB race held in Polokwane. Several podium positions proved that they were off to a great start, claiming bragging rights with their super new Plasie cycling gear. Armand Cronjé came first in the sub junior division of 16 km. His sister, Bernice, was awarded third place in the junior girls 35 km race. Cyclist Robert Retief also took third place in the junior boys 35 km event. Other bikers who did well were Jordan Stevens and Sheldon Muller. They will also be lining up for the Munnik Meerkat Challenge in March. Seen here are Robert Retief, Armand Cronje and Bernice Cronje.
Die Top15-atletiekspan van die Hoërskool Ben Vorster het aan die Top15atletiekbyeenkoms in die Universiteit van Johannesburg se stadion deelgeneem.

Berig oor die byeenkoms binne.
Nooit weer sal Valentynsdag inmeng met ons Superakbiespanpraatjie nie, is die resolusie wat laatnag geneem is by die eet- en dansplek bo in die kloof. In die manstoilette, bygesê, want ons viermanskap wou nie die slegte verhouding met ons assosiaatlede nog verder versuur nie. ‘Tja, toe ons verlede Saterdag tot die besef kom dat ons weens ons afspraak met die gades die grootste gedeelte van die CheetahsSharks en die hele Stommerds-Bulle se wedstryde gaan mis, het ons allerhande planne bedink om daaruit te kom. GertGrensvegter het probeer wegkom met ‘n rugspierspasma van die oggend se bietjie spit in die tuin, maar sy ou wyf het gesweer as hulle nie gaan dans nie, hy met spasma en al maar sy eie graf in die tuin kan grawe. ArthurIngeslman “felt y maaigryn kammieng on”, maar hy is ‘n erger hoofpyn belowe as hy homself nie onmiddellik daarvan bekeer nie. Oubal self het skielik ‘n doodlyn vir die rubriek waaraan hy moes werk onthou,

Vaaltuin Rakbie maar die ou tante was ewe oninskiklik met dreigemente van ‘n doodlyn op Oubal se lewe. KoosKakie was uiteraard die minste gepla nadat sy Leeutjies die vorige aand alle grense van patetiesgeit oortref het, maar het uit solidariteit nogtans ‘n kombinasie van jig en akute depressie as futiele verskoning aangebied. So sit ons daar langtand en eet, hinkepink af en toe ‘n wals, mazurka of foxtrot, terwyl ons wonder wat in die werklike lewe aangaan. Hier by nege-uur se kant kom druk die wynkelner ‘n briefie in GG se hand en toe is alle hel los. “Kyk nou wat het jy loop aanvang!” gil GG dreigend teenoor Oubal. “In die

Letaba Rugbyklub sou more in Tzaneen teen Potchefstroom rugby speel, maar die manne van Potch het nie kans gesien vir die lang pad Letaba toe nie. Of altans, so word vertel. Daar is egter diegene wat glo die manne van Noordwes het skrikkerig geraak vir Letaba en besluit om eerder tuis te bly — veral na die afgelope naweek se talle skokke op Superrugbyvelde (en veral op Loftus). Letaba het inderhaas wedstryde vir vanaand (Vrydagaand) gereël en Letaba 1, 2 en 3 speel nou teen twee spanne van Noordelikes en Bosveld se eerste span. Goeie nuus is dat die manne van Modjadjiskloof weer die rugbystewels nader getrek het en hulle sal vanjaar onder die vaandel van Letaba 3 speel. Inderdaad goeie rugbynuus vir die omgewing. Klubrugby is besig om ‘n stadige dood in die platteland te sterf en om rugby te red, maak die plaaslike rugbybase ook allerhande planne. Letaba en Modjadjiskloof span dus vanjaar kragte saam om drie spanne in die veld te stoot. Vanaand se rugby skop om 18:00 af en al wat rugbyliefhebber is word genooi om die seisoen se opening in ons omgewing vanaand by te woon. Kom ondersteun ons manne, is die wekroep van die plaaslike rygbyleiers. Die weer is nog lekker en die atmosfeer om die veld is altyd lekker. Kom kuier saam, pak die piekniekmandjie vroegtydig en geniet lekker plaaslike rugby — en kry ‘n voorsmakie van wat vanjaar plaaslik verwag kan word. toekoms ignoreer jy daai Kaapse pêl van jou, jy skryf nooit weer iets negatief oor die Stommerds nie!” Daarmee lei Oubal toe af die Stommerds het die BB’e ore aangesit en dit nogal op vesting Loftus. In hoe ‘n mate sou ons eers later in die week uitvind toe ons ‘n heruitsending onder oë kon kry. ‘Tja, dit was nie ‘n mooi gesig nie. ‘n Mens sou nooit kon dink dat die BB’e met twaalf Springbokke teenoor die Stommerds se vier so oordonder sou word nie. Die BB’e kan nog steeds nie skrum nie, al het hulle twee Vrystaatse Bok-aanwinste in die voorry. Oubal vermoed die verloopte BB-stut, Vincent Koch, en die Stommerds se twee plaasvervangerslotte het baie daarmee te doen gehad. Boonop het Damien de Allende eerder gelyk na die man wat Jean de Villiers se mantel moet optel, as Jan Serfontein. En hoe JJ Engelbrecht ‘n Bokkontrak het en Juan de Jongh nie, gaan Oubal se verstand te bowe. Oubal weet ook nie wat Frans Ludeke teen intelligente en talentvolle spelers soos William Small-Smith,

All the pupils and staff of Stanford Lake College travelled to the Peter Mokaba Stadium in Polokwane to compete in the Independent Schools’ Athletics meeting. SLC’s athletes participated keenly and showed some excellent commitment. The meeting was unfortunately cut short by heavy rain and the 400 m and the relays were not run. However, of the events that were held, results were very pleasing and SLC won a total of 25 bronze medals, 19 silver and 25 gold. Reece Bain (girls u.15) cam first in the 800 m and 1 500 m, Ruben Caroto (boys u.14) won the 100 m, 200 m, shot put and discuss, Ledile Kgopong (girls u.14) won the 800 m and 1 500 m and Mfumo Mongwe (boys u.16) — seen here in action came first in the 100 m, 200 m (new record at 22,43 sec) and the high jump.
Dries Swanepoel en Jessie Kriel het nie, maar dis sy probleem. Ou Al wou hom natuurlik doodgiggel toe hy van die Bulle se leed verneem, net om onmiddellik daarna in trane uit te bars toe hy van die Sharks se nederlaag hoor. Oubal was beïndruk met die Vrystaters se vertoning, met die bal in die hand sowel as met hul nuutgevonde verdediging. ‘n Riem onder Oubal se hart was Blouskooloorkant-die-brug se oud-stut, Danie Mienie, wat Dok Jannie ‘n skrumles geleer het. Om te dink hy was verlede seisoen nog ‘n Shark, maar ooglopend baat Os se skrumskool hom! ‘Tja, ‘n interessante Superakbienaweek, met nie minder nie as ses tuisspanne wat verloor het, waarvan die Crusaders en Waratahs se nederlae teen onderskeidelik die Rebels en die Force waarskynlike groter skokke as die Bulle en Sharks was. En dit op Valentynsdag! “Today is Valentine’s Day – or, as men like to call it, Extortion Day!” – Jay Leno
