FORCE THE CHANGE ■ Joe Dreyer
Things can only be changed if they are faced. And when a million faces stare into the eyes of all that needs to change, it will. This weekend, people from across the globe will join in solidarity with South Africans who have had to suffer under extreme conditions in a country rife with corruption, crime, murders, farm attacks and genderbased violence in a massive international demonstration. The “Move One Million” campaign will see 16 countries takes hands with their South African brothers and sisters as they stand up to the government who have failed dismally in their promise to secure a brighter future for all. “This is not a political campaign, this is a movement to enforce change and bring back the dignity and the freedom of all people,” said Joanita van Wyk, Co-Founder of the Move One Million campaign. She took some time out to speak to Bulletin about the drive behind the campaign, what it stands for and what it aims to achieve on Saturday, the 5th of September (tomorrow). “The immense socio-economic impact under one of the world’s most extreme lockdown’s during the Covid-19 pandemic has resulted in South Africans uniting for their voices to be heard,” she said. “There are many smaller groups campaigning against various atrocities and what we usually hear is ‘it won’t achieve anything because who
POOR WORKMANSHIP COSTS MONEY The ongoing tug-o-war between Phalaborwa rate payers and a seemingly disinterested local municipality has edged another step into the absurd when one local business owner reportedly suffered financial loss as a result of what he believed to be shoddy workmanship.

will listen to a handful of peaceful protestors’. And those comments carry some weight, but when all those smaller groups combine their campaigns into one massive action, it cannot be ignored. Every person in South Africa has a voice and every business and household has a face, it is time that we show ourselves to the government and let them hear our frustrations. We are now done, and we as South Africans will no longer stand for this.” According to Van Wyk, this weekend’s mass-protest will be the catalyst to bring about significant change in South Africa. She explained that the idea behind the Move One Million was to become an umbrella movement under which smaller campaigns can find solace. “This movement is not specific. We are not going to protest farm attacks tomorrow. We are not going to protest GBV or human trafficking or corruption either. We are standing up against all of it in one massive movement. Because all of it negatively impacts on all our people, and all of it needs to change.” The movement, which Van Wyk co-founded with Jarette Petzer, is also working on a mass campaign for direct elections. In June 2020, the South African Constitutional High Court ruled that the current Electoral Act is unconstitutional as it does not allow for individuals to stand as independent candidates in local and national elections.

The Ba-Phalaborwa Municipality (BPM) is making it even more difficult for business owners to make a living through their absolute lack of planning, maintenance, and poor workmanship. Two weeks ago the municipality arrived on site outside Laeveld Butchery in the town’s CBD to repair another burst pipe in their outdated and rapidly falling to pieces infrastructure. The BPM team ripped out the paving bricks right in front of the shop and started digging into the walkway to reveal the burst asbestos pipe. After repairing the pipe, the team left – leaving the butchery shopfront inaccessible from the street with patrons expected to traverse a literal mudslide. The bricks were never packed back into place nor was the rubble removed. Despite numerous calls and complaints from the owner of the butchery and some members of the community, at the time of going to print the municipality had still not returned to fix their mess. **Editor’s comment: This is in line with the modus operandi of the BPM who seem to be operating on a reactional policy rather than a preventative one. It would serve them well to budget for a total repair of the entire grid in planned, scheduled intervals which would allow for some form of pre-emptive planning by business and homeowners alike. This municipality’s failure to adequately plan has directly led to residents being left without water for days on
end and businesses suffering an income as a result of water shortages and shoddy workmanship as in the case of Laeveld Butchery. To add insult to injury, the Ba-Phalaborwa municipality informed its residents recently that they have delayed the issuing of billing statements for this month due to ‘technical errors’. “The municipality’s technical department must improve the standard of workmanship when repairing anything. As a result of poor workmanship in the municipality, the team just closed up the hole with sand on Saturday, to claim overtime, and left it like that,” this is the sentiment of a business owner within the CBD who wished to remain anonymous for fear of reprisal. On the other hand, Laeveld Butchery owner, Francois Joubert, believed that this incomplete work of the municipality was the new norm and said that if that was the case, he may as well close up shop and migrate to an environment more suitable. Joubert said the shop had no water for a whole week and that he has had to get water using cannisters from his home to the shop. “What can we say, because when we report our grievances to the municipality, they fix things at their own time,” stated Joubert who is adamant that the walkway is still a construction site and not complete. “It is a big problem because if you struggle to go inside a shop, you won’t even want to go there in the first place. If you know that people are building on a
construction site, you do not even go there because you might even get hurt, and that is the case of this walkway by our shop.” The Chairperson of the Chamber of Business in Phalaborwa, Manie Kriel, labelled the municipality’s behaviour as nothing short of blasé and hurtful towards the people of the town. “More especially when their actions influence a business negatively! We need a Municipality for the people and not against the people!”

“We have some logistical challenges with regard to our readiness to resume full operations in some parks.” These were the words of the CEO of the South African National Parks, Fundisile Mketeni, when he spoke about the impact of maintenance work being done in the park. SANParks announced last month that it intended to reopen its hospitality operations gradually to ensure “optimum readiness to accommodate guests in compliance with new regulations and protocols.” Providing further detail into the logistical challenges to resuming full operations, Mketeni stated that the recall of staff and their induction on new protocols could only be undertaken over a period of days. He emphasized that the induction was in the interest of the health and safety of both guests and staff. “We had the option of staying closed for all business until we were 100% ready, however with the understanding that our guests are yearning to spend time in nature, we compromised by introducing a phased reopening of our guest facilities.” The accommodation in most of the parks is now fully operational, however Kruger National Park remains the most impacted by the ongoing maintenance work and will only open in a multi-phased approach. Many of the Kruger camps have reopened and are fully operational, however, Skukuza and Lower Sabie will be operating at minimum capacity until 1 October 2020 and 15 December, respectively. Biyamiti, Maroela and Orpen remain closed until mid-October and early November, respectively. Phaahla said that the bulk of the guests with affected bookings
have been contacted and that this would continue until the end of this month. Guests who wish to make queries about their bookings are invited to send emails to Kruger.overbookings@sanparks.org. Meanwhile the DA Shadow Minister of Environment, Forestry and Fisheries, James Lorimer, said that the Kruger National Park spending taxpayer’s money to sue guests lacks any sense of proportion. This was after the park said in a statement that they had consulted their legal advisors and were bringing civil and criminal charges against a guest for allegedly posting racist and fake news on Facebook that claimed bookings were not being honoured or were not available because accommodation was being occupied by staff. Lorimer stated that the growing number of reports indicate apparent management failure in the KNP. “If there was a racist offence, as alleged, then there are other ways of dealing with this. This is equivalent to a restaurant or hotel suing a customer for a bad review on social media,” stated Lorimer. “The KNP is a great national asset. It needs to maintain good relations with the public. Above all, it needs to be open about what is going on. Official communication is fuzzy at best. Threatening guests shows a failure to understand the hospitality industry. A large part of park’s funding comes from tourism. Tourists need to be encouraged, not fought with,” stated Lorimer. Lorimer stated his intention to write to the chairperson of the portfolio committee on Environment, Forestry and Fisheries to request the SANParks CEO and chairperson be invited to explain.

Report the polishers ■ Jeff Jackson The Greater Tzaneen Municipality (GTM) has denied responsibility when it comes to street merchants harassing citizens as they embark on shopping expeditions in the CBD. This followed various complaints by citizens who claim that they were being harassed by young shoe polishers, street photographers, airtime dealers and even insurance salesmen on the sidewalks of Danie Joubert Street. According to one shopper, walking past Total Sports just next to the Tzaneng Mall entrance, a group of boys will spray your shoes with a foam claiming to help cleanup your dirty shoes and start brushing it after which they demand money for cool drink. “Failure to give them money for cool drink will subject you to verbal abuse or they will threaten to assault you,” he said. Walking past BB Motors there is another group of young boys with cameras and they photograph random passers-by, especially young women, without their consent, and demand money for it. At the same spot there is a group of boys and girls from an insurance company who also cause havoc by forcing pedestrians to join life insurances and if not, they demand money to buy bread. Meanwhile, when shoppers park their vehicles and enter the shopping centre or stores, they are met with illegal street parking attendants who flock to their vehicle and demand money for watching your car while you were shopping. They become agitated and aggressive when they do not receive payment. Attempt to gain comment from GTM Spokesperson, Neville Ndlala, were unsuccessful as his phone was not answered, but Municipal Manager Thapelo Matlala said those who might be harassed by these people must report them to the police.
Limpopo Health Department appalled at misuse of vehicles ■ Joe Dreyer A state-owned mobile clinic was used as a furniture removal truck in Tzaneen on Friday the 28th of August. The mobile clinic is an asset of the Limpopo Health Department and the furniture is the property of an engineering workshop owner who has a contract with the Health Department service provider from which the vehicles were bought, to service their vehicles in the Greater Tzaneen Municipal area. The contractor’s personal property was attached by court order and after having made payment, the contractor was permitted to collect his property from the Sheriff’s storerooms. A Mopani District Mobile Clinic arrived at the storerooms and a crew proceeded to load the personal property into the vehicle. The personal property in question included tools, vehicle jacks and furniture. This at a time when there is an urgent need for all state health vehicles, ambulances and mobile clinics especially, to be in top running condition and standing at the ready to serve the communities should there be an emergency. Bulletin forwarded photographs and a video of the incident to the spokesperson for the Limpopo Department of Health, Neil Shikwambana who expressed outrage at the abuse of state property. “We are absolutely appalled by this behaviour. It is nothing short of shocking and we have already followed up with the contractor in question to ensure that this does not happen again. We cannot allow state resources to be misused like this when
Parks week postponed ■ Billy Sibuyi SANParks will have to postpone their much anticipated “free week” which they offer each year due to Covid-19 restrictions on the number of visitors allowed in public spaces within the Park. The 15th Annual SA National Parks Week which is offered in partnership with Total South Africa and FNB, is traditionally held in September, but due to regulations has been moved to the week of the 16th of November to the 20th. SANParks CEO, Fundisile Mketeni, said that SANParks has implemented extra visitor management procedures in the parks to manage visitor volumes in line with regulations. SA National Parks Week is an annual campaign that gives all South African citizens the opportunity to enter
citizens vote for a party and each party chooses who they wish to put into national and provincial government.
most of the parks managed by SANParks, for free excluding accommodation facilities and tourist activities. SANParks has said in the past that they aim to increase the number South Africans who take advantage of this annual initiative and that since its launch in 2006, some 551 393 citizens have indeed done so. “The week is meant to cultivate a sense of pride in South Africa’s natural, cultural, and historical heritage, and a deeper appreciation of biodiversity. It is important for South Africans to visit and know the importance of their national parks,” Mketeni stated. “We urge every South African citizen to visit a national park in November for free and experience all that these parks have to offer. You will be doing your part to promote our tourism industry.”
there are people in communities who need these resources in times of emergency and find that there are none available to help them.” Shikwambana said that the department has started investigating the matter and will decide what action to take against the contractor in question. He applauded the person who reported the matter to the media and expressed the department’s wishes to be held accountable by the public. “If our citizens do not report irregularities such as this incident to us, we would never know about it. The public will likely see an ambulance or other state vehicle being misappropriated as in these images and think that it is a department employee taking chances. They will not know that it is a contractor, and that is publicity that we do not deserve. Thank you for bringing this matter under our attention.” In response to our official media inquiry, Shikwambana explained that the vehicles are not purchased by the department through a dealership, but are acquired through a national contract (RT46) which was awarded to Transit Solutions, a fleet management service based in Gauteng. The work allocation, or distribution of service and repairs of these vehicles is also managed through this RT46 contractor on behalf of the department. The work is allocated or distributed to all merchants on their database including dealerships. “The vehicles in question do not have service or motor plans any more since most have exceeded their 100 000 Kilometre or 5-year life cycle. As a result, they are serviced as and when required,” Shikwambana explained. “The years of acquisition differs from 2004 to 2019. Departmental vehicles are not acquired from dealerships, instead they are bought from the manufacturers as per National Contract RT57. The manufacturers include Mercedes Benz SA, VW SA, Toyota SA and Nissan SA.” We asked Shikwambana about the lifespan of departmental vehicles and what happens to these vehicles once this lifespan has been reached. “The life to date (a point at which the vehicle must be
sold or replaced) in terms of ambulances, patient transport and mobile clinics is 200 000km. However, the vehicle can still be utilized if it is technically and mechanically assessed and found to be in good working condition.” Regarding the contractor, Shikwambana said that the department does not have its own mechanical workshop and therefor the RT46 contractor appoints its own service providers in various areas. “The department never advertised any tender nor awarded any to the contractor in question. National Contract RT46 was awarded in 2015 and since has been extended to end in March 2021. This contract services all the departments in Limpopo (not only the Mopani district) and other provinces. In terms of the National Contract RT46, merchants like the one in question are appointed by the service provider who was awarded the RT46 National Contract.” At the time of going to print it was not clear what consequences the contractor faced or how the Department of Health dealt with the matter.

Wolkberg Akademie hoof sê totsiens, nie vaarwel nie ■ Roelof de Jonge Wolkberg Akademie vir Christelike Volkseie Onderrig (CVO) het sedert sy ontstaan op 15de April 1997 van krag tot krag gegroei. Hierdie skool het hom bewys as ‘n skool van geleenthede en uitnemendheid op alle lewensterreine en leef die personeel en leerders voluit om die skool se leuse genaamd ‘Ter wille van ons kinders, voluit’, na te streef. Op Donderdag die 3de September het die skool se leerders en personeel Bybels en Christelike leesstof van die Bybelgenoodskap van SuidAfrika ontvang en dit is deur Hannes Steyn van die Kruispad- AGS gemeente oorhandig. Hierdie waardevolle skenking is deur twee van die skool se ouers, Herman en Julette Claassens, bewerkstellig. Tydens hierdie geleentheid het die kollig ook geval op die skool se huidige hoof, Marietjie Naudé, wie eersdaags die leisels ophang en kollega, Ronel Steyn, wie die pos na die September skoolvakansie gaan oorneem. Naudé is sedert 2011 verbonde aan Wolkberg Akademie CVO skool waar sy as onderwyser begin het. Sy vertel dat sy aanvanklik net vir ‘n kwartaal by dié skool sou klas gee en het aanvanklik ‘n ander personeellid afgelos. Haar tydelike pos het toe permanent geword Marietjie Naudé, Wolkberg Akademie CVO se hoof wie eersdaags die tuig neerlê, se skoene sal gevul word deur die ewe passievol onderwyser en kollega, Ronel en in 2014 het Naudé die pos as skoolhoof van Steyn, wie tans die skool se adjunkhoof is.

Maxim’s rocked hard SAVF Ligloop vanjaar ■ Roelof de Jonge
This past weekend saw the first live performance by a local band since the relaxation of the lockdown regulations which banned social gatherings at venues. Tzaneen’s popular local band, Rock Regime, had its first public appearance on Friday evening the 28th of August at Maxim’s Guest House and Restaurant. Even greater news is that Rock Regime and Maxim’s made a new standing arrangement for live show appearances every first weekend of the month. The next live show will be staged on the evening of Saturday the 3rd of October. Not only was the band starved for some live shows after being mothballed due to the Covid-19 lock down regulations, but also for live music fans who have yearned for an evening out. “We just could not wait to get back into the scene and bring musical joy to the people of Tzaneen,” said Helgard de Villiers, frontman and lead guitarist. “The air of anticipation among the patrons at Maxim’s was palpable and they literally could not wait for our set to start. What a great time, and what a fantastic venue.” The show started at 19:00 and as the curfew time of 10:00 approached, the livelier the audience became. With a list of classic rock songs being performed, the older generation especially did not hesitate to get those hips swinging and shake off some
of the Covid-19 anti-social rust accumulated during the lock down period. Sticking to the rules however, the band closed their set at 21:30 to ensure they had enough time to pack up and head home before the 22:00 curfew. Also make sure to follow Rock Regime on their Facebook social page (@rockregime) and remember to support local restaurants and other eateries in Tzaneen and surrounding areas who have all suffered significant loss in income due to the harsh lockdown regulations.

Stand like granite, shine like quartz ■ Joe Dreyer Times have changed. In a world gone topsy-turvy there is no longer room for half-baked, sort of, maybe or perhaps. The pandemic has changed all that, and from now on going forward, only the toughest, the bravest and those at the top of their game will survive. Like granite, the strong will stand sturdy in their tenacity and their expertise - no matter how they environment around them changes. They will stand unmoved. We have a lot to learn from granite. Like the way you stand back and admire that perfect finish the granite countertop adds to your new kitchen. It is sturdy, yet smooth and makes a strong statement about the individual in who’s house it serves. Come what may, water, chemicals, knife blades and even the occasional dirty shoeprint cannot impress its intentions upon granite. There are many cheaper alternatives that may look the same, at least for the first few years, and may even seem better value given the price, but when the going gets tough they soon start to buckle. There is a saying that granite is timeless – one needs only to speak to any of the satisfied Sleebok clients to understand that this is more than an adage. Granite is such a hard material that it not only resists scratches and burns, but cutting on granite will damage your knife. But there is a new material to compete
with granite, which many claim to be an even better option for your countertops. Engineered Quartz. Quartz is as durable as granite and just as beautiful. For the past 22 years Nina and Guy van Heerden have been considered the experts in their field. With their team of installers and expert craftsman, Sleebok have been supplying quality finishes to homes and businesses for more than two decades without fail. They are so knowledgeable and passionate about their business that most of the content in this article was obtained during a 20-minute walk through their factory in downtown Tzaneen. Factory Manager and material expert, Arnold Kok has been with the company for almost as long as they have been in operation and there is truly very little one can teach him about the trade – though he would argue that one never stops learning. But there is one thing still tougher than granite and engineered quartz. Weathering more than two decades worth of economic turbulence, political storms and changing trade environments, Sleebok have proven through their own endurance and unbuckling belief in exceptional customer service, that the strongest element on Earth, is the human spirit. Strong like granite and as smooth as quartz, Sleebok is the perfect match for any kitchen, any time, any place, and if they are not yet featured in yours, well then you really need to call 015 307 6005.
virtueel aangebied ■ Roelof de Jonge Die Covid-19 pandemie het heelwat nagevolge vir organisasies, veral welwillendheidsinstellings, gehad met jaarlikse geleenthede om geld in te samel wat uitgestel, gekanselleer of hersien moes word. Die jaarlikse Ligloop pretloop word aangebied deur die SAVF Tzaneen-tak en moes ook weens die inperkingsmaatreëls hersien word om te sorg dat dit wel te kon plaasvind. Vanjaar se nuwe gewysigde Ligloop geleentheid sal op die 12de en 13de September aangebied word. Vir die SAVF se Diensbestuur wat hoofsaaklik uit vrywillige werkers vanuit die gemeenskap bestaan, is dit van uiterse belang dat hierdie geleentheid wel plaasvind. Omrede die Ligloop as die hoof geldinsamelingsprojek vir die SAVF dien. Volgens Pamela du Toit van die SAVF se Diensbestuur, is daar besluit om wel vanjaar se Ligloop-geleentheid aan te bied, alhoewel in die vorm van ‘n virtuele geleentheid. “Die SAVF as ‘n nie-winsgewende welwillendheids-organisasie benodig geleenthede soos die Ligloop om geld in te samel. Ons is baie afhanklik van die gemeenskap se ondersteuning. Die geld wat ons insamel word ondermeer aangewend om behoeftige gesinne in nood te ondersteun wat veral deur die Covid-19 se inperkingmaatreëls geraak is.” “Daarom is ons baie hoopvol deur met die nuwe virtuele formaat en baie beskostigebare inskrywingsfooi ons soveel meer mense as moontlik wil lok om aan die Ligloop deel te neem. Die geld wat ons insamel sal ook vir ons beoogde pleegsorghuis aangewend word.” Vanjaar kan nie net vroue nie, maar enige persoon inskryf. Te midde van die ekonomiese
druk waaronder mense en ondernemings gebuk gaan, het die Diensbestuur van die SAVF besluit om die inskrywingsfooi te wysig na R110 per persoon. Sodoende is dit vir mense meer bekostigbaar om in te skryf en skep dit ook die geleentheid vir meer mense om deel te neem. Die Ligloop virtuele geleentheid sal oor ‘n afstand van 9 kilometer gehou word. Enige persoon, besighede of werksgroepe kan van enige plek in Suid-Afrika of selfs in die wêreld inskryf om deel te neem. Die Ligloop sal dus op die 12de en 13de September aangebied word. Persone kan enige plek en op enige tyd die 9km roete stap of draf, solank dit tussen 06:00 en 18:00 op die gegewe datums geskied. Inskrywings kan aanlyn gemaak word. Vir navrae rakende registrasie kan mense vir Pamela du Toit (015 307 2645) of Ilza Roelofse (083 773 0471) skakel. Om ‘n plek vir deelname in die Ligloop te bespreek, kan mense slegs die SAVF Tzaneen se Facebook blad besoek en op die ‘Book Now’ skakel klik om besprekings en betalings te maak. Andersins kan mense die skakel www.ligloop.co.za of https://pay.yoco. com/savf-tzaneen en onthou om die verwysing Ligloop en die besigheid se naam aan te heg.

Bulletin spoke to SA Hunters (SAHGCA) Mopani Branch vice chairperson, Gavin Meridith, on the preventative measures that are now expected to be in place to operate in a ‘safe and hygienic’ space. Just like other sport institutions, a lengthy list was released indicating what is to be expected from the branch to operate a Covid-19 free environment. According to Meridith, the recent move to Level 2 did not change any of the responsibilities and protocols to be followed by SA Hunters branches during the management of shooting ranges under Level 3. “As with all activities during lockdown the resumption of shooting sport activities comes with certain conditions” stated Meridith. “Only 40 shooters, four relays of 10 shooters, would be allowed on the range at any one time and shooters must book prior to the event.” Designated Covid-19 Health and Safety Officers will manage and oversee the planning and execution of the event and adherence to the standards of hygiene and health protocols relating to Covid-19. Persons over the age of 60 and persons with pre-existing medical conditions should consider the risk to themselves, of attending sporting events. They would however not be turned away should they choose to attend the event. According to Meridith, the senior and junior shooters will participate on separate shooting ranges approximately 300 meters
apart. He said that the seniors will shoot the Bushveld shooting exercises for scoped (HG01) and open sight (HG02) rifles on the Zebra target at distances of 150m, 100m and 50m. Moreover, the Juniors will shoot the U9 springer air rifle (JA01), U13 PCP air rifle (JB01-B), and U18 PCP air rifle (JC01-B) for exercises. The range will also be sanitized before, during and after the event. All persons will undergo the completion of Covid-19 Questionnaire and Control List. Shooting points on the firing line should be at least 1.5m apart and social distancing on the firing line will be maintained. Masks must be worn by all who enter the range and facilities and only individually pre-packed meals with disposable drinking bottles will be allowed at the facility. “If a person’s temperature is above 37.5 degrees Celsius, we will let the person wait for a few minutes and take the person’s temperature again, if it is still exceeding 37.5 degrees Celsius, we will refuse entry to the shooting range. On completion of the event, no gatherings will be allowed, and everyone must depart immediately,” concluded Meridith.

Whilst the Tzaneen golfing fraternity were chasing birdies and possible hole in one’s at the course of Tzaneen Golf Club on Saturday, the Limpopo Amateur Championship contenders headed to the new course of Marble Hall Golf Club. With the Limpopo Golf Union and SA Golf making sure all the needed health protocols are in place, it is now up to players and the clubs to ensure that these protocols are being adhered to. The new layout of the Marble Hall course is also a new addition to the Limpopo Amateur Golf Championship. Gavin Lake from the Belfast Golf Club thus became the first winner of the new Marble Hall-round that was contested over one round of 18 holes. Lake won with a score of 72. Second place went to Polokwane’s Niko Koster. Tzaneen’s local golf talent, James
Vorster, had a good outing to finish third with a round of 76. Vorster competed in the A-division Gross category and his outstanding form on Saturday sealed the win ahead of his nearest rival, Ian Jacobs. The next round of the Limpopo Amateur Golf Championship will take place with the Sesambos Open on the 12th and 13th of September.
