World Aids Day

Dr Haufiku wishes to eradicate Aids in Namibia by 2030 Erwin Leuschner

An estimated 210 000 people in Namibia are infected with HIV while about 150 000 are on Anti-retro-viral treatment in the public sector. This new statistic was revealed by Dr Bernard Haufiku, Minister of Health and Social Services, at the opening of the National Aids Conference in Swakopmund.

Three days of mourning for the late Fidel Castro The Namibian Government will host a memorial service on Tuesday for the late Fidel Castro, leader of the Cuban Revolution and the former President of that country who died at the age of 90 on 25 November. Three days of mourning for the late Fidel Castro starts in Namibia today until Tuesday after the memorial service at the Parliament Gardens in Windhoek. Namibia’s Head Of State Dr Hage Geingob paid a tribute to the late Fidel Castro (also see article in today’s edition).

The Ministry of Health and Social Services aims to eradicate Aids in Namibia by 2030 and at the same time end Mother-to-child transmission of HIV by 2020. “Many such MOU's will follow soon. We have signed many bilateral and multi-lateral agreements in fast tracking HIV-Aids Prevention and saving lives,” said Dr Haufiku during his opening address. According to the Minister the amount of people receiving Anti-retroviral treatment does not include the private sector, which the ministry is busy integrating into its data. “We are left only with 26% or about 69 000 people, to reach our target of 90% of people estimated to be HIV positive who have not been tested yet,” he said. To achieve this goal the rate of testing needs to increase by 5.5% per annum. “This translates into testing about 18 000 people per annum or 1 400 people every month if for the next consecutive four years if we want to reach our targets,” he continued.

peace negotiations and peacebuilding, which reiterate respect of human dignity and rule of law. “Thus UNSCR 1325 specifically call for inclusive peace and security undertakings where all humans are critical actors and women and men play equal roles including decision making at national, regional and international levels. At the opening ceremony of the conference UN Resident Co-ordinator and UNDP Residents Representative MS. Anita Kiki Gbeho said Namibia has agreed to develop the NAP and the workshop was an excellent opportunity to discuss why women, peace and security is relevant in peaceful and a stable Namibia, “it also presents an opportunity to learn from the experiences of other countries, on how we respond to new and emerging threats around human security such as Gender Based Violence. She further said key findings from the SCR1325 study confirm that women's leadership and participation in the peace and security process has resulted in a 20% increase in the probability of an agreement lasting at least 2 years and a 35% increase in the probability of an agreement lasting at least 15 years “however much more needs to be done.”

New Marine Resources Advisory Council Continued from Page 1

Ms Olivia Shuuluka (Secretary). “The Marine Resources Advisory Council is one of the most important entities established under the Marine Resources Act. It is specifically established to advise the Minister with regard to implementation of the Act,” Esau said. Amongst the responsibilities the Council has to advise the Minister on the setting of Total Allowable Catches (TAC), the setting of levies and fees, the expenditure of Fisheries Observer Fund and the expenditure of the Marine Resources Fund. “In making the appointments, I have put together persons of different skills and experiences which I believe are essential in the decision making process on the variety of issues that will be presented to the Council,” Esau said. The Minister congratulated the outgoing Council for their dedicated and professional approach during their tenure. “Particularly, in addition to your hard work in stabilising the TAC setting system and routine advice to me, I wish to underscore your exemplary performance,” Esau continued. In this regard he mentioned the response of Namibia on the issue of seals, particularly with regard to the on-going court case in Geneva against the EU ban on Namibian seal products; and the registration of several previously foreign flagged vessels which are now Namibian flagged. Esau thanked a few past members who have since left the Council on account of expiry of the 3year term: He thanked the immediate past chairperson of the Council, Ulitala Hivelua, who passed on about two weeks ago; Mr Festus Mungunda, the CEO of Standard Bank Namibia; Ms Sharon Neumbo, the Chairperson of the Midwater Trawlers Association; and Mr Paulus Kainge of MFMR.

In this regard he called on Namibians to “gather courage this festive season and get tested.” To lead by example Dr Haufiku also decided to publicly go for HIV testing. “I have thought of it and experienced the fear and anxiety everyone goes through. This is not a brag or a public show off, but an exercise hopefully to motivate and encourage many men to take the test,” he said. Over the past years Government made significant strides in combating the pandemic. One such achievement is the fact that only 4% of infants born to HIV positive mothers are HIX positive. “96% of these babies are born HIV negative, thanks to our strategy of testing all pregnant mothers and promptly starting those that are HIV positive on Mother to Child Prevention Regimes irrespective of the CD4 counts,” the Minister continued. Furthermore Dr Haufiku called on Namibians “to ignore and throw out of their minds the hog wash and balder dash regarding recent media reports on male circumcision. The Minister was referring to “one selfconfessed public health expert who claims that circumcision is ineffective against HIV transmission.” Various studies undertaken show that the risk of transmission from a woman to a man is less than 58% if the man is circumcised. “What more do we want?” he asked. In an effort to further address the pandemic Dr Haufiku called on the Ministry to make condoms more readily available and provide them to sex workers and everyone else who need them. For him it is not good enough to openly display condoms at receptions. They should be put in special places such as consulting rooms where there are less people, in toilets and other private places. “We want condoms and information brochures to be at every roadblock come December 2016 and beyond,” he said; and added: “Let us go to night clubs, taxis, mini busses, sport tournaments and weddings and even funerals and spread the message and distribute condoms to everyone who need them.”

The Founding President Sam Nujoma visits Swakopmund Pharmacy A visit to the pharmacy is an everyday occurrence for most Namibians, but when you are the Founding Father of the Republic of Namibia a visit to the local pharmacy is not that simple. Janine Bock He is a Hero and a Star to me i have great Respect for our Founding President Dr Sam Nujoma thank you and RIP to President Fidel Castro you make me proud To be a Namibian i am gratefull for you courage and May God Bless you ..Proud to have had you in our leberation Viva... Wekies Uek Max imbili John Gwaniindongo Give him a plot Clifford Hall Wonder if the chemist was Peter Sander? Carola Krämer no Peter as at Mediclinic Washington Tangeni Kahenge Very welcome

Dr nuuyoma in public. that's the only way you can know your country very well and enjoy your life with community and services they are rendering to your people. Angie Guertel Just very pathetic that they had sirens blaring and driving at some horrific speed........I thought that there was a bomb scare.....or some disaster was about to go down!! No body is interested in taking his life........ So why all the hype and commotion???

Mass houses not burnt-workers “confiscate”boss’s car After tense negotiations the angry construction workers of the Delta Group, who threatened to burn down the mass houses they built on the north-eastern outskirts of Swakopmund, “confiscated” their bosses car as surety. The workers demand their wages, which they allegedly have not received since August this year. Katja Dreyer Only one month behind? Sure - let the workers explain to their children why they can't eat for a month. I am sure their landlords are very understanding towards the "sorry I can't pay my rent" situation, schools and daycares won't insist on punctual payment and who needs water and electricity? Marelize Vivier van Heerden Daar is tog van daai ministers wat eerste keuse gaan he om so veel van die huise te koop as wat hulle wil he en dan onder verhuur hulle die huise weer....so maak hulle net geld. Kuripte ou spul.....sal wat wil gee om my ousie te help so n huisie te koop maar ek mag nie. Anzell M Engelbrecht Verkoop dan di huis aan ons wat te min pay want di banke kan ons ni huis leenings gee. En betaal di werkers ons betaal huur van 6000 per maand kan dit sovel net ook aan my eie huis betaal.

No penalty waiver for strandhotel The Swakopmund Town Council will not waive the obligatory penalty imposed on Ohlthaver&List Leisure due to the late completion of the development of the Strandhotel. O&L Leisure had requested Council to write-off the penalty to the value of N$2 141 250 in part due to “cash-flow difficulties.” Meriam Kauta Was working for strand hotel to be honest they should write it off swakopmund town is busy and small business around it is benefiting and big shops aswell.... staff get tips every single day and they contribute towards the town growth and tax aswell they have taken lots of young people off streets and all over our country.... best company to work for Christopher B They should write this off. What other developers are going to give Swakopmund the investment it needs under these terms. The message here is "develop something great for the

town and we will make it as unprofitable for you as possible.". DeWet Nel Maybe they need the money for a Christmas party, or a bonus for the senior officer? Rene du Toit Really? Just write it off or delay payments for 12months to assist them. Bernard Mbai Rules are rules nobody knows that better than O&L so I am sure they will comply forthwith cause they are responsible corporate citizens Christie Benade Very good for future investors keep it up

The article in the namib times of November 25, of instant headlined: “Kaapehi demands inclusivity in German-Namibian talks,” refers. It is not so much the content of the article that is at issue but the misleading headline. Because neither does Councilor Uahimisa Kaapehi recalls at any point uttering off the cuff any remarks that may have been interpreted to mean that the affected communities are and have been clamouring for a place around the negotiating table currently involving the Namibian and German governments, as requested by their two respected envoys, Dr Zed Ngavirue, for Namibia, and Mr Ruprecht Polenz for Germany. Nor could in the prepared statement which Councilor Kaapehi read to the two envoys, and which has been availed to the media, be found any single allusion or word that could be interpreted as exclusion of the affected communities from the ongoing negotiations on genocide. In fact, the affected communities are not surprised by this interpretation because wherever it may have ensued from, this seems to have been the picture that have generally been painted, and words echoed by the media, perhaps reflecting the uninformed and illinformed perception of the two governments that the affected communities are excluded from the ongoing negotiations between the Namibian and German government on genocide. “Dear Special Envoys, I humbly appeal to you both in this time around kindly go back to your respective governments and to call to halt the ongoing pretention engagement. Nor to entertain any hope that the affected communities shall ever dream of joining the current negotiations. The two government must just awaken from their dreams, get serious and speak to my people. Only then would the real business begins,” reads an excerpt from Councilor Kaapehi categorical. One cannot understand as categorical as this excerpt reads, what can and should be interpreted as a desire by the affected communities to join the ongoing negotiations between the two governments? Yes, the affected communities are aware that the two governments have been pretending that their current engagements are based on the 2006 Resolution on Genocide and Reparations sponsored motivated by the affected communities. Such a resolution is clear that the affected communities should in any negotiations on the matter be represented directly by their own leaders. This is not the case with the current negotiations between the Namibian and German governments, sic between these governments special envoys. Not only this but the same resolution also speaks of a trilogue, that is the affected communities on the one side, as aggrieved or affected parties; talking to the German government on the other hand, as the aggressor; with the Namibian government as a mediator, if not at best squarely behind their citizens, the affected communities who are the first and legitimate claimants in this matter. This has not pertained as yet. Thus how can the affected communities be wanting to partake in any current negotiations which do not an iota come close to any of the salient requirements and provisions of the said 2006 Resolution of the National Assembly? Simply the two governments have bypassed this resolution and have embarked on their own and there's no was the affected communities can join the ongoing negotiations. Period. The affected communities have been on record that if the two governments one day become serious about this issues, and desist from the intransigent racist attitude not to speak to “tribes”, they very well know who the leaders of the affected communities are, and where to find them. Surely these leaders would be open to speak to them but joining any current negotiations is out of the question, period! I thank you

From love to death Across the world tens of thousands of women and girls are being loved to death. Take a wide angle snapshot of these deaths and violent assaults and they become a recitation of women attacked in desperate circumstances. Strangulations, often with everyday implements such as rolling pins and dog leads, frightening acid attacks, shootings, burnings, are just some of the ways women are murdered and scarred globally. Despite only one in five global murders being female, the stories of their deaths are radically different to male murders. Men are most often killed by strangers. The reverse is disastrously true for women. One of the singularly most dangerous places for a woman is the family home. A woman's most dangerous antagonist is not the serial killer, or the criminal opportunist, or the random murderer, but their intimate partner, or another family member. In 2012, 43,600 women were killed by an intimate partner or a family member. This is an average of some 119 women killed globally every single day of the year or one every 12 minutes. It follows that the story of women's murder is not one of guns and knives in the hands of strangers, but

of brutal betrayal to both marriage vows and social mores. It is the tale of how close partners turn from love to vicious murder. Figures bear this out. Sixty per cent of homicide victims are female where the intimate partner or family member is the perpetrator. Even more disturbing, 78 per cent of all intimate partner homicide victims are female. If this is the situation, what can be done? Last year, the world was given a target. The target comes from the adoption of the 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda and calls for the elimination of all forms of violence against women and girls, including trafficking and sexual and other types of exploitation. Reductions in all forms of violence and related death rates are also sought. Our work is united by a single intractable truth: despite fluctuating homicide rates, whether living north or south, east or west, the killings of women by intimate partners exists at similar levels in all the world's regions. In Europe, in Asia, in North America, we all have a stake in this struggle. But there needs to be a fundamental sea change in the way we view this crime.

Geingob: Farewell to Castro Namibian Presidents all attended the funeral of late revolutionary, Fidel Castro in Havana, Cuba. Current President, Hage Geingob, was one of the few world leaders who was given the opportunity to speak at the final goodbye of the former Cuban President.

Namibia and Cuba has always had a special bond, Castro had a hand in Namibia's Independence. When Africa was a battleground between the Cold War powers, Cuba emerged as a friend of liberation movements. Cuba's involvement in Africa went beyond the ideological standoff between right and left to a real helping hand: sending soldiers, doctors and teachers when post-colonial Africa was perhaps at its most vulnerable. “It was at a SWAPO camp in Cassinga, Southern Angola where racist South African military forces launched a brutal attack on defenseless Namibian women and children in exile. The first responders to this scene of brutality and death were the gallant Cuban forces who came to our rescue. It was in our defence in which Cuban soldiers lost their lives and limbs. After the attack, Cuba was the first country to provide education facilities at the Island of Youth for three thousand (3 000) surviving children of the Cassinga massacre.” “The legacy of Fidel is an eternally burning flame that will continue to inspire and ignite the passion of progressive forces of the world as we fight for economic justice and the realization of an equitable world order. May his revolutionary spirit consume all of us so we may continue to resist neo colonialism and remain united in. Hasta la victoria siempre!”

100 elders in DRC receive water storage containers Sharlien Tjambari A total number of 100 water storage containers of 25litres each were donated to the elderly people of the DRC informal settlement community last week Sunday, 27 November by Power Oyeno Construction Company in Swakopmund. The containers will be used for the storage of water. Power Oyeno's Managing Director Mr. Albert Antonius Paulus said since Power Oyeno is working from DRC they discovered something which needed much urgent attention within the DRC community and they realised that the methods used by the elders and the blind to collect water from the taps at the end of the streets were not only risky, but poor because by the time they reach their homes half the water has spilt on the ground or the containers are empty. “The elders needed urgent help and support, that is why we decided to identify at least 100 elders to be the beneficiaries in order to ease their burdens, the container has a cap to keep bacteria out and also a tap to make the process of pouring water is much easier” said Paulus. The 100 elders who benefited were chosen by the DRC committee. They had people lined up and they chose the people they felt were old enough, Paulus added. According to him Power Oyeno Construction Company was established in 2013 and this is their first time they are giving back to the community “this is just the beginning, we are trying to see how we can fit in the Harambee Prosperity Plan and it is our plan to give back to the community. We have plans of building schools, clinics and other community projects” add Paulus. Power Oyeno Construction Company care for the people because they are the reason why we are here and we need to make sure that we will lend a helping hand. Together with the Swakopmund Council we will be able to make the lives of Swakopmunders better because they have the right to live a decent life concludes Paulus.

Mayor of Swakopmund Mrs Pauline Nashilundo was delighted to have been part of this event, here she is seen handing over the 25ltr container to an elder of the community

These projects are primarily focused on energy provision, affordable housing and transport sectors. In his welcoming remarks Standard Bank's Chief Executive Vetumbuavi Mungunda said PPP's is a very important policy development that has been discussed in the country in the last 10 years. “We are here to deliberate and clarify our own PPP framework that needs to be developed and platforms like these serve as an ideal opportunity for specific engagements.” The one-day confePanellists at the recently held PPP Conference in Windhoek: (From l-to-r) Roland Brown (IJG Securities), David Humphrey rence was officially (Standard Bank SA), Saurabh Suneja (Ministry of Finance) and Jo Lomas (British High Commissioner to Namibia) opened by the Minister of Finance Calle Ensuring value for money, affordability and focussing in The conference jointly tish High Commission Schlettwein who stresgetting credible Public Private Partnership (PPP) projects organised by Stan-dard in Windhoek.

value for money as one important parameter for a PPP's success. “The role that PPPs play in promoting investment, net economic gains and efficiencies cannon be overemphasised. I believe that we need to acknowledge and embrace the dichotomy that through PPPs we channel relatively expensive private capital for developing the projects that would serve the public at large, and thus where affordability will be an important consideration. Given this key consideration, a PPP project will be a suitable solution only if we are able to derive substantial efficiencies from the involvement of the private sector. We believe that Value for Money can be further enhanced by the two fundamental principles of output orientation and competitive procurement,” said the Minister. The second critical issue with regards to PPP's is affordability which the Finance Minister stated should be from the perspective of the end user and the public sector. “A critical measure of our success shall also be that PPPs provide tangible benefits to the population, and are undertaken in a manner that is sustainable and efficient.” He further stated that public funds are currently under immense pressure. In view of this, the Government has taken a pro-growth stance to accelerate growth by creating an environment for a PPP environment in the economy. The Government has made steady progress towards the PPP agenda. The National PPP Policy was approved in 2013. In line with the Policy, the Public Private Partnerships Directorate (or the PPP Unit) has been set up at the Ministry of Finance since April last year. The formulation of the PPP bill was also adopted and passed by the National Assembly. The vibrant discussions on the subject of PPP's were also held on 25 November through a breakfast networking session organised for public enterprises in Namibia.

Ideal ways to protect your banking information Plan to have a trouble-free Festive Season by ensuring your banking information is safe and protected. No-one wants to be caught off-guard – especially not during holiday season when enjoyment is all that is in one's mind. “We face the busiest shopping days of the year during the Festive Season. Normally fraudsters are also more active during this time of the year,” says Surihe Gaomas-Guchu, Corporate Communication Manager at Standard Bank. Gaomas-Guchu shares eight ways of how to protect your banking and personal information: · Carefully dispose of expired Identity documents (IDs) so they cannot be reused. This includes IDs that have been reported lost, then found or renewed/temporary driver's licenses or passports. If you are sentimental about these documents, keep them in a safe place. · When you receive a new bank card, sign it immediately and link your banking to your cell phone, so that you receive notifications when any transactions go through your account. · Report any suspicious transactions on your accounts to your bank immediately. This will enable your bank to stop access to your cards. · Keep a list of all your card numbers separate from your cards, in case your wallet or purse is stolen. · Never write your PIN number on your cards or where they are stored, as you will be liable for any transaction where a valid PIN was used. · Shred expired cards, because if someone gets hold of the card they can use it in conjunction with a fake ID to get a new one. · Never leave your ID documents where they can be stolen. · If your phone service is suddenly terminated, this could be the result of a fraudster suspending your phone contract so you don't receive texts about your bank activity. They also organise sim swaps by repeatedly calling you and hanging up in the hope you will switch off your phone so the swap can be executed. If you get numerous calls from an unknown number, call your service provider to check that they have not received instructions for a sim swap. Report lost and stolen cards to the Standard Bank Customer Contact Centre on 081 9286. If you have been a victim of identity theft contact your nearest branch or Financial

Liebe Küstenleser! Da hüpfte er völlig verwundbar und unbeholfen vor mir auf dem Bürgersteig umher: ein winzigkleiner Wellenastrild mit Babyflaum und einem noch dunklen, wächsernen, kurzen Schnäbelchen (bei den ausgewachsenen Vögeln sind sie stechend rot). Da dieser Piepoll noch nicht flügge war, total orientierungslos schien und daher so gut wie keine Überlebenschancen hatte, fing ich ihn ein und nahm ihn mit nach Hause. Dort richtete ich ihm ein Lager aus Sand in einem Schuhkarton her. In die eine Ecke legte ich Watte, sodass er eine warme Lagerstätte hatte. Wasser bekam er auch in seinen offenen Käfig, und dann forschte ich im Internet nach, wie man solche Vogelbabys füttern muss. Auf einer Website fand ich die nötige Information. Man bereite einen Brei zu, lasse ihn abkühlen, nehme eine Einwegspritze natürlich ohne Nadel - , ziehe den Brei damit auf und füttere den Piepmatz. Gesagt, getan! Nur, das mit der Spritze hatte ich weggelassen. Der Brei kam direkt auf meinen Finger. Und was hat der hübsche Singvogel gefressen! Das arme, ausgehungerte Dingelchen konnte gar nicht genug von diesem Maisbrei bekommen. Immer wieder hüpfte er auf meinen Finger zu und knabberte die weiche Nahrung ab. Mit der Zeit wurde er immer munterer, hüpfte in unserem Winterzimmer umher, genoss die Sonnenstrahlen und unternahm sogar erste, noch klägliche Flugversuche. Auffallend dabei war, wie oft er sich putzte. Pausenlos strich er sich mit seinem Miniatur-Wachsschnabel durch das Ge-

fieder. Im Internet las ich dann auch, dass man solch ein Vogelbaby vor allem sauber halten muss. Das heißt, vor jeder Fütterung sollte man sich die Hände gründlich waschen, denn die daran haftenden Bakterien könnten ihm schaden. Auch sollte man jegliche Futterreste, die sich am Vogel festge-

An der Atlantikküste,in der Namibwüste Namibias junge “Botschafter” für Deutschland Die Worte dieser Woche Die AGDS und die Botschaft der Bundesrepublik Deutschland in Namibia informieren

Am 21. November verabschiedeten die Arbeits- und Fördergemeinschaft der Deutschen Schulvereine in Namibia (AGDS) und der Kulturreferent der Botschaft der Bundesrepublik Deutschland in Namibia Ullrich Kinne 19 Schülerinnen und Schüler verschiedener Windhuker Schulen zu einem Schüleraustausch nach Deutschland. Die AGDS ermöglicht bereits seit vielen Jahren zusammen mit dem VDA (Verein für Deutsche Kulturbeziehungen im Ausland e.V.) einer Auswahl namibischer Jugendlicher, die Deutsch als Unter-

richtsfach ab der 8. Klasse belegt haben, einen zehn- bis zwölfwöchigen Aufenthalt in Deutschland während der namibischen Sommerferien. Die 19 Deutschlernenden erleben den Alltag in Deutschland hautnah in deutschen Gastfamilien und in den Schulen der Partnerkinder und vermitteln so auch ihren deutschen Freunden und Bekannten namibische Kultur und Lebensweise. Ullrich Kinne wünschte den jungen „Botschaftern Namibias" einen interessanten und erlebnisreichen Aufenthalt in Deutsch-

land und dankte den Eltern und Familien für ihre Unterstützung. In einer Zeit des wachsenden Nationalismus und Isolationismus und zunehmender Fremdenfeindlichkeit weltweit sei es wichtig, dass junge Leute weiterhin Brücken zwischen den Ländern und ihren Menschen schlagen. Auch die jungen Leute sehen dem Austausch mit Spannung und Freude entgegen. Im Gegenzug werden Gastkinder aus Deutschland in den deutschen Sommerferien 6-8 Wochen in Namibia verbringen, um ebenso Land und Leute kennenzulernen.

Der Schüleraustausch wird seit vielen Jahren von der deutschen Botschaft finanziell und logistisch gefördert. Der diesjährige Schüleraustausch wurde mit N$ 58500 bezuschusst. Damit soll auch in diesem Jahr vor allem Jugendlichen die Teilnahme ermöglicht werden, deren Eltern sich den Eigenanteil nicht in voller Höhe leisten können. Rückfragen: Frau Monika Hoffmann; AGDS -DKR ; Tel: 061 235 959; Frau Jana Wall; Deutsche Botschaft; Kulturreferat; Tel.: 061 273114.

(Alle Zitate stammen aus dem Buch der Schweizer Autorin Maria Simmen ,So alt und noch mitten im Leben’ von 1988) “Sie kennt mich wirklich nicht, lässt sich bloß täuschen von meinen Bemühungen, ein anständiger Mensch zu sein. Aber sie hat es sich nun mal in den Kopf gesetzt, in mir die gute Christin zu sehen. Unmöglich, mich ihrer Überschätzung zu erwehren! Nie wird sie es verstehen, dass ich mich an Stelle himmlischer Freuden, die sie mir verspricht, mit der ewigen Ruhe so gut abfinden könnte.” “So geht es vielen Menschen. Werden sie alt, sucht sie die Erinnerung heim und verklärt eine frühere Zeit, in der sie glaubten, geborgen und glücklich gewesen zu sein. Wenn die tägliche Daseinssorge ihn loslässt, kann der alte Mensch zum Träumer werden, zum Heimwehsüchtigen.” “Immer wieder packt mich das Bedürfnis, möglichst viel Leben einzufangen. Schon früh erwache ich mit der Vorahnung, dass sich heute vieles ereignen werde.” “Immer wieder ist es das Stille und das Laute, das sich begegnet. Das Laute gehört dem Augenblick - das Stille trägt weiter.” “Wo gedeiht heute noch die Pflanze spontaner Menschlichkeit? Die raren Exemplare sollten unter Naturschutz gestellt wer-

Dieses eine, dass ich mich schriftlich auseinandersetze, hat mir bis jetzt nichts und niemand rauben können. Es könnte nur eintreffen, dass mein Augenlicht noch trüber und zuletzt dunkel würde, aber daran darf ich nicht denken.” “Volle Gesundheit ist eigentlich der Ausnahmezustand für die meisten Menschen. Sie sind sich dessen zum Glück nicht bewusst, und mancher setzt die Gesundheit leichtsinnig aufs Spiel: Die Sportfanatiker, die Motorisierten, die Raucher und Trinker und nicht zuletzt die Schlemmer mit den dicken Bäuchen. Lauern darüber hinaus nicht zerstörerische Mikroben, Viren aller Art darauf, den scheinbar widerstandsfähigen Körper anzugreifen und matt zu setzen?” “ Da bin ich schon wieder auf die “IchSpur” geraten und glaubte doch eben noch, ihr entrinnen zu können. Nie komme ich von mir selbst los. Nur der Tod könnte vom Ich befreien vielleicht...Aber ich will noch leben, so sehr mich mein aufsässiges Ich manchmal verdrießt. Und doch muss ich mich immer wieder zu ihm bekennen!” “Oft frage ich mich: ,,Was war nun das

KlosterfrauMelissengeist und doppelter Korn!

Beste in deinem Leben?” Ich könnte sagen: “Alles war mir wert - weil es eben Leben war.” Aber das meine ich nicht, obwohl es stimmt, weil ich dazu stehen kann. Aber ich war immer so etwas wie eine Goldsucherin. Ich suchte im Geröllsand des Alltäglichen nach Goldkörnern, das will heißen: nach besonderen Werten.. Ich siebte unermüdlich, und was ich dabei gefunden habe, bewahre ich in der Schatztruhe meiner Erinnerungen. Von Zeit zu Zeit hole ich sie hervor und erfreue mich an ihnen.” “Wir wissen es wohl Altwerden ist kein Verdienst, höchstens, WIE wir es werden und tragen, darauf kommt es an. Ein wenig liegt es schon in unserer Hand. Ich räume ein: bis an die Grenzen, hinter der wir unweigerlich andern ausgeliefert sind. Vor diesem Letzten ist mir ein wenig bange, und ich kämpfe mit allen Mitteln, es hinauszuschieben und mir meine persönliche Freiheit zu erhalten. Ich will mich nicht aus eigener Schwachheit schwächen lassen wie der unglückliche alte König Lear. Verbissen erstreite ich mir meine Menschenwürde und wünschte, dass alle Alten es mir gleichtäten.” “Für andere sorgen, das erhält einen!”

Next Generation Ford Fiesta - World's Most Technologically Advanced Small Car - Delivers Four Distinctive Personalities Ford revealed the next generation Ford Fiesta - the world's most technologically advanced small car - at a special Go Further event in Cologne, Germany. The next generation Fiesta is unveiled with the most sophisticated range of driver assistance technologies and connectivity features ever in a volume small car in Europe, as part of the most comprehensive and versatile line-up of variants in 40 years of Fiesta history. Ford revealed four distinctive production variants of the Fiesta, including the stylish Fiesta Titanium, the Ford Performance-inspired Fiesta ST-Line, the upscale Fiesta Vignale and the Fiesta Active crossover - the first in a new line-up of Active vehicles to be rolled out across the

Ford range in years to come. Three- and five-door Fiesta variants will deliver superior quality and refinement; feature a stylish new exterior and revolutionary interior design with more personalisation options than ever before. Ford has also further enhanced the compelling fun to drive character that has helped make Fiesta the best-selling small car in Europe four years running. "It's because we share our customers' passion for Fiesta that we've been able to take this iconic small car's lovable, fun and sporty-to-drive character to the next

level, with a greater choice of models than ever and each with a distinctive personality," said Jim Farley, executive vice president and president, Europe Middle East and Africa, Ford Motor Company. "We now have a Fiesta option for every driver, including the luxurious Fiesta Vignale and the Fiesta Active crossover, with advanced tech-

nologies and features that small-car customers could only have dreamed of just a few years ago." Among a classleading range of Fiesta driver assistance features - supported by sensor technologies capable of monitoring up to 130 metres ahead - is an enhanced Pedestrian Detection system that for the first time can help prevent colli-

sions at night; and the first Ford Active Park Assist system that can deliver brake interventions to prevent low-speed bumps when parking handsfree. Fiesta is also the first Ford vehicle to feature a premium B&O PLAY Sound System, and for the first time offers an openable panoramic glass roof. The Fiesta's sophi-

sticated SYNC 3 communications and entertainment system is supported by floating high-definition touchscreens up to 8inches, and a spacious and ergonomic interior features an almost 50 per cent reduction in centre console buttons for a more intuitive environment. Cutting-edge powertrains include Ford's multi-award winning

1.0-litre EcoBoost petrol engine offering up to 140 PS, and a 1.5-litre TDCi diesel offering 120 PS - the first highpower diesel Fiesta powertrain. Ford anticipates CO2 emissions from 82 g/km, supported by an all-new sixspeed transmission with innovative friction reduction technologies.

The TRAVEL MAGIC RACE TO CAPE TOWN Namib Mills last weekend was as always a great success, with Paul and Amandio playing very well to win the day on 51 points. Thanks to Gousie and Megan and the rest of this wonderful team for the big day, and even better news is that they have agreed to be back next year. Just about all won prizes on the day and there was a consolation prize‌.no names no pack drill. The photo is of the Namib Mills team and president John. It was felt that the winners were not good looking enough to get their photo published. The weekly draw stood at a whopping N$2 100, and was won by David Peake, the second time in the life of the draw that his name came out of the bag. This week its back to N$1 000 starting money. The TRAVEL MAGIC RACE TO CAPE TOWN was won by 'OU GROTE' Frans, mooi gedaan Frans jy het dit wel verdien. Thanks to Lezane for being there to award the prize and trophy to Frans, and even better thanks for the commitment for next year. On the photo is Herman Lezane and Frans.

Wilna Secures Title at Ladies 2016 Pro Tennis Academy Rossmund Open Championship rewards outstanding sponsored by the Swakopmund players Collection The Pro Tennis Academy (PTA) has rewarded their most outstanRossmund Golf Course played host over the past weekend to the 2016 Rossmund Ladies Open Championship sponsored for the second year in a row by “The Swakopmund Collection.” A field of 22 ladies from Omeya, Windhoek, NDF, Walvis Bay, Henties Bay and Rossmund entered, being an official event on the NALGU calendar there was the additional incentive of Merit List Points. This year's event included a Sunday Stableford Division with a view to attract beginners and /or senior ladies who no longer see chance for the 36 hole tournament. Play commenced on Saturday morning around 9 o'clock – the course was well prepared and in excellent condition - the weather conditions were good. Shooting an 85 gross on day one things were not all going to plan for Wilna as her nearest rivals Laetitia Brink and Adri Pienaar entered the clubhouse with the same score. Mary-Ann Boltmann gave the field a bit of a scare carding an excellent 69nett on day one. However the “Öld Lister Engine” put her head down on Sunday morning finishing with 2 shots in hand - carding an 82 gross. Our sponsors at Rossmund always manage to bring a bit of something extra for the ladies – each player received a “breakfast voucher” and enjoyed a light lunch after prize-giving. Sponsors representative Johan Kok stated in his speech that the Swakopmund Collection “like golf and ladies” so

what more reason do they need to say they will be back in 2017. NALGU President Adri Pienaar thanked the sponsor for a great tournament and their ongoing support, the Rossmund Team for making the course available and all the players for their participation. A special mention went to Marieke Neethling a 10 year old from Walvis Bay who competed for the first time on grass and in an official tournament. Adri used the opportunity to bid farewell to Laetitia Brink who together with Caro Els will be seeking fairways new in 2017 as they further their lives in New Zealand and America respectively. Results: Overall Winner (Champion) – Wilna Bredenhann 167 gross; Best Gross: Laetitia Brink 169; R/U Gross: Adri Pienaar 174. Best Nett: Mary-Ann Boltmann 149; R/U Nett: Angie Lohmann 154. Stableford: 1st: Gaby Adams 61pts; 2nd: Lynne van der Walt 57pts; 3rd: Rina Knight 53pts; 4th: Zelda Nel 51pts. Sunday Stableford Prize went to Bubble Burns with 18pts.

ding players at their yearly award ceremony last week.

During the festive event in the capital, PTA head coach and tournament director, Romeo van Wyk, recognized the academies exceptional performances as well as the winners of this year's PTA tournament series that stretched over the entire year with the season finale being played at the beginning of November. "We can look back at a very successful year. Both the academy and the tennis series have made huge strides forward and we are sure we can continue on this path next year," van Wyk said. Tresia Auala had a night to remember as she was awarded the academies most improved female player of the year after improving her game tremendously since joining the PTA at the beginning of the year. Arnaud Marais completed his jaw-dropping season after being recognized with the most improved male player of the year title. Marais' exploits included winning the midi category of the tournament series for a second time in a row. Meanwhile Dudley Minnie received the prestigious Sportsman of the year accolade. Minnie had a great series season in the advanced category after coming in third behind Cleet Farmer and Godwin Husselmann, showing great sportsmanship in the process. Faith Kahuure clinched the Sportswomen of the year title. The series top athletes also got their share of trophies. Vaniah Mumba won the mini division ahead of sibling Jaedyn Mumba. Marais got his second price of the evening as winner of the midi category ahead of Samuel Mayinoti and Eila Kambonde. Delicia Dirkse was in a class of her own in the newly formed intermediate ladies division, beating Faith Kahuure and Melanie D'Alton to the first place. Randel Kavandje held on to the top spot in the men's intermediate class, successfully fighting off a late resurgence from Mike Kambonde. The third place went to Christopher Jansen. Cleet Farmer had a less trouble defending his title in the advanced category. He was, however, given a run for his money as Godwin Husselmann, winning two tournaments, showed that he is a force to be reckoned with in the future.
