Fishermen’s strike intensifies

Bernabé Blaauw Dié palmboom het Sondagoggend in Walvisbaai veroorsaak dat die tweerigtingverkeer in Sam Nujoma-rylaan tydelik ontwrig is totdat die ou grote in stukke opgesaag en verwyder kon word. Vermoedens dat die boom deur die wind omgewaai is, is deur die eienaar van die eiendom, geleë op die hoek van Sam Nujoma-rylaan en Vyfde Weg, weerlê toe hy genader is oor die oorsaak vir die boom se val op die grensmuur en in die pad. Volgens hom was werkers besig om die boom af te saag toe dit in die verkeerde rigting begin val het en hulle nie daarin kon slaag om dit te beheer nie. 'n Straatlig wat op die sypaadjie gestaan het, het ook in die slag gebly maar niemand is in die insident beseer nie.

The offices of the Namibia National Labour Organisation (Nanlo) was burgled in Walvis Bay on Thursday evening or early Friday morning, with cash and a laptop computer missing.
Die ongeluk het op sy terugtog gebeur. Hy was alleen in die voertuig. Volgens motoriste wat ook op daardie tydstip op die spesifieke pad was, was dit 'n baie mistige oggend. Marvin Bruwer het die afgelope 10 jaar sy merk gemaak as rugbyspeler vir die Kudus. Hy het nog Saterdag by Day of the Dolphins vir Kudus gespeel as binnesenter. Marcha, 'n vriendin en familielid van sy vrou Tammy-lee Bertoni Bruwer, het hom beskryf as iemand wat 'n groot hart gehad het. “Marvin is die tipe
Nanlo is currently embroiled in a bitter turf battle for membership in the fishing industry, against rival trade unions Nafau (Namibia Food and Allied Workers Union), Nasawu (Namibia Seamen and Allied Workers Union (Nasawu) and the NFI (Namibia Fishing Industries). Members started to resign in masses in recent weeks on allegations their best interests are not protected by Nafau, Nasawu or NFI. These disgruntled members instead signed up with Nanlo and commenced with industrial action to demand better salaries and better benefits from their fishing industry employers. A fishing industry strike by Nanlo members remained on the table by as late as this weekend.

Lede van Walvisbaai se gemeenskap het Vrydag in groot getalle opgedaag by die jaarlikse uitstappie vir senior burgers by Huis Palms. Tysdens die geleentheid word bejaardes, wat vanweë omstandighede nie gereeld kan uitkom nie, getrakteer op 'n uitstappie in die sonskyn en buitelug. Die bejaardes wat nog kan en wil stap doen dit en daar is dosyne mense wat handjie bysit met die bejaardes in rolstoele. Koek en tee het die geleentheid afgerond, en daar was land en sand gesels. Bystand van die sakegemeenskap en die owerhede was ook prysenswaardig. Die Walvisbaaise munisipale verkeersafdeling het gesorg vir die veilige begeleiding van die optog, St Gabriel Communty Ambulance was daar om hulp te verleen indien nodig, terwyl die plaaslike apteker mnr Hendrik van Schalkwyk sonbrille voorsien het aan diegene vir wie die sonlig te skerp vir hul oë was. Personeel van Huis Palms was ook nouliks betrokke om die dag vir die oumense 'n hoogtepunt te hou, soos wat elke jaar gedoen word. Na afloop van die verrigtinge het 'n deelnemer gevra dat die Walvisbaai gemeenskap met soortgelyke inisiatiewe vorendag kom vir diensbaarheid teenoor ons dorp se oumense. Hoewel daar reeds verskeie jaarlikse inisiatiewe gehou word, ook vir Walvisbaai se ander ouetehuise, is dit hier 'n geval van hoe meer hoe beter.
Ongeluk eis Staatmaker van Kudus-rugbyklub Vervolg vanaf bladsy 1 persoon wat almal wou en sou ken. Hy het nooit iemand in sy hart gedra nie , haat het nooit 'n plek in sy hart gehad nie.” Allister Carolissen, Ondervoorsitter van Kudus Rugbyklub sê die klub is gisteroggend geruk deur die tyding dat Marvin “ Herkie “ Bruwer, een van sy staatmakers, in 'n motorongeluk omgekom het. Op 29-jarige ouderdom was Herkie ‘n senior lid onder die Kudu-spelers. “Herkie het op die jong ouderdom van 17 jaar as ‘n vleuel by Kudus Rugbyklub aangesluit en het sedertdien ononderbroke vir die klub gespeel. Herkie was ook onder die senior spelers'n leier en was normaalweg die gekose man as die spelers kwessies met die bestuur gehad het. Herkie was 'n opregte mens en net so vurig as wat hy die spelers sou verdedig, net so vinnig sou hy hulle oor die vingers tik wanneer hulle iets verkeerds sou doen. Terwyl verskeie spelers hul nie beskikbaar gestel het vir die klub vir Saterdag se toernooi nie, was Herkie ferm om sy deelname en lojaliteit te bevestig “ al speel ek van nr 1 tot nr 15 maak nie saak nie, maar speel sal ek speel” sê Allister. Marvin Bruwer, of soos almal hom geken het “Herkie”, het laas Saterdag nog vir oulaas sy geliefde Kudu-trui oor sy kop getrek toe hy in vier van die vyf wedstryde die klub verteenwoordig het. Die Kudus-bestuur en spelers spreek hulle innige meegevoel uit met die ontydige heengaan van een van sy strydosse. Hulle wens sy vrou Tammy-Lee, alle krag en sterkte toe in die tyd van rou.
New Union Hurt By Cash Burglary Continued from page 1 With monthly membership fees hovering around N$80 per member, and members paying in arrears for the months of September and October, it is clear the sum of money missing is significant for the union. Nanlo Secretary- General, Kleopas Taapopi, in his misery over the incident just described the sum of cash stolen as “a hell of a lot of money. Taapopi was woken by the Namibian Police at his home early on Friday and was informed of the burglary. In rushing to the office he discovered a laptop was stolen as well as a cash box. The cash box was retrieved in the meantime where the culprit/s discarded it after removing the cash. Taapopi says the only positive aspect is there were regular data back-ups without which Nanlo would have lost all membership data.
The scene of the burglary
“Most of our information was on the laptop; thank God we made back-ups otherwise we could have lost everything, including our membership information,” he said. Taapopi is confident the culprits will be arrested, adding he has suspicions, but opts to keep that to himself. “I cannot rule anybody out. I will just wait and see. I do not think this investigation will take long. Probably one or two days at the most”. Yesterday the police confirmed that none of the stolen items have been recovered. No arrests have been made yet and the police investigation into the matter continues. !Uwu//khaeb vowed earlier that they would make arrests.

Sterilises 90 township pets
second day Dr Baines needed to dart some of the more skittish dogs, to bring them in for sterilization. Due to many of these fearful animals running, they only managed to dart five out of the eight that were planned. The generosity of the local business community, put their hands in their pockets to fund the two-day spayathon, with an amount of close to N$66 000 raised by Have-A-Heart Swakopmund, to cover the medical expenses. The team of Windhoek veterinarians led by Dr Ian Baines, included
Dr Katja Storm, Dr Maya Dahlberg and Dr Saskia Stam from the coast, who all worked at a back breaking pace to finish as many animals in the two days. Organisers Geesche Neuburg and Ute Holstein of Have-A-Heart Swakopmund, stated that they were also planning a 'Spay Day' in February which if is well supported financially will become a regular feature. It was said that the project still runs on a monthly basis to spay and neuter at least ten animals through the Swakop Vet Clinic, empha-
sising the need for regular donations to keep this amazing charity work going throughout the year, for both spayathons and vaccinations. All these projects rely on donations from the public to keep them going, which is ultimately for the benefit of the underprivileged people who cannot properly feed and care for the growing numbers of stray animals who live a wretched life on the streets. Banking Details: Have-A-Heart, Swakopmund. Bank Windhoek, Branch Swakop, Savings, acc no. 200296537. Many of these dogs die of starvation, disease, or injuries sustained from
being run over or otherwise knife attacks. By reaching out to these informal settlements and underprivileged areas with ongoing sterilisation projects, these committed people also help educate the people on animal care, since often ignorance results in extreme animal cruelty which should not be tolerated on any level. Have-A-Heart spayathon, forms part of a nationwide pilot project that holds free sterilization for thousands of township pets countrywide to reduce the suffering and breeding of unwanted litters.

An incredible two-day township sterilisation programme held in the DRC this weekend, saw 90 dogs and cats spayed and neutered by a team of four vets. The campaign was spearheaded by charity organisations, 'Have-A-Heart Swakopmund and Feed-APaw, assisted by their dedicated volunteers who worked under extreme conditions to ensure as many animals were helped. With the mission to reduce the litters of domestic animals in the impoverished informal settlements, Have-A-Heart, Swakopmund has stepped it up with its second spayathon held this year. And by Sunday afternoon the team had spayed and neutered 70 dogs and 20 cats, all belonging to underprivileged owners. A large marquee was set up
in the DRC as the sterilisation centre, which was kept busy with its separate stations, namely the pre-op anaesthetic table, operating theatre, tagging and identifying desk, and recovery section on the floor where the animals lay on blankets after they came out of their operation. Windy conditions on the second day, made the working conditions even more challenging for the tight team, but each one did their bit to make sure the welfare of the animals brought in were given top priority, before returning them safely to their respective owners.

Mario Steenkamp Dit is oral in Swk so, in die dorp se plekke self ook ek ry baie aande daar verby en sien die klein kinders tussen 12 en 16 lyk dit vir my dronk by plekke uit storm. Ek wonder net waar is die ouers? En wat kan ons as publiek doen om die kinders weg te vat van sulke plekke. Die groot ding is daar is altyd n vriend by wat kar ry dalk 18+ en laai dan kuikens in om saam te gaan drink. Ek dink elke naweek moet daar n span mense aangestel word om id te vra as jy hulle op straat sien met drank of net dronk is.

Rika de Meyer Daar stem ek saam ons kan nie klippe gooi nie want more is dit ons kinders wat daar is. Ek dink daar moet meer plekke wees waar die kinders kan gaan en saam met hul ouderdom kinders kan kuier en gesels. Dis omdat dit so moeilik is vir die kinders want in swakop kan die kinders nie meer strand toe gaan of net by die mole op die gras gaan sit nie want hulle word weg gejaag al is hulle
ontskuldig as daar ander is wat wel onmin aanjaag. Ek weet van n geval by die mole waar n groep kinders onskuldig gesit en gesels het toe word hulle gearresteer net omdat hulle naby n groep gesit het wat dagga gerook het. Ek voel dis onregverdig want wat moet ons kinders doen as hulle nie eens in die publiek mag kom saam met vriende nie want hulle word oor dieselfde kam geskeer as die ander wat wel dinge doen. Ons as ouers moet rerig plan maak en praat want kinders kan nue heeldag en aldag in gehok sit nie dis ongesond vir kinders veral tieners want dis wanneer n kind begin skelm raak.

Donate Before You Go Yesterday, 2 November 2015, NamBTS and World Health Organisation (WHO) launched the 8 week long campaign “Donate Before You Go” seeking to ensure adequate blood supply during the festive season. Although blood is not necessarily synonymous with the Festive Season, it is a commodity that is in very high demand since it is almost always in short supply this time of year. In an effort to ensure that patients have access to a sufficient blood supply during the Holidays, the Blood Transfusion Service of Namibia (NamBTS) has partnered with WHO to increase blood supply through awareness campaigns. Dr Islam, Representative of the World Health Organization in Namibia states “the lack of access to safe blood is responsible for the deaths of thousands of childbearing women each year globally. Severe bleeding during pregnancy, delivery and after childbirth is the single biggest cause of maternal death and can kill a
healthy woman within two hours if she is unattended.” “A constant supply of blood is needed all year round, and as there are simply not enough available and willing donors during December and beginning of January, we encourage you to donate before you go off and enjoy your summer holiday. In hot weather you need to drink more fluid to keep hydrated so that your body can adjust itself after the donation and stop you from feeling faint. It's important to replace fluids after you've donated to help bring your blood volume levels back to normal,” says Zita Tobin of NamBTS Urgent access to safe supplies of blood for transfusion is crucial, especially during the
festive season when the blood stock levels are low. The “Donate Before You Go” campaign encourages the public to donate 5,000 units before Christmas – a reachable target if new and existing donors pull together to make sure that lives will be saved. Since blood cannot be manufactured, patients can only receive the necessary blood products through a selfless gift given by blood donors. Therefore, NamBTS and WHO are
calling all Namibians to donate blood. Donors should be older than 16 years, weigh more than 50kg, lead a sexually safe lifestyle and enjoy general good health. Donors are encouraged to eat a balanced meal within 3 – 4 hours of attending a clinic. For more information, join the conversation on Facebook. com/ TheBloodTransfusion ServiceOfNamibia.

Seminar to enrich Narraville Women Liesl Losper
Florence Tshisuku, a counsellor and community worker of the organisation Healing Wound, started the initiative after she had an outreach program and realised that a lot of problems women face daily are due to a lack of information or proper education on social issues. The aim with this seminar is societal transformation. The topics for this workshop on 7 November at the Protea Hotel in Walvis Bay will focus on different aspects of a woman's life, from finances, health, emotional well-being, the role a woman plays in society, for example, baby dumping, family planning, stress management, SME/Entrepreneurship, malnutrition amongst babies and young children, counselling on different aspects, and health issues. “Since it will be an information sharing day each speaker will present a talk on a topic based on experiences they went through in life, obstacles they faced and how they rose above all things and give advice on how to bring about a positive change in a woman's life. This seminar will benefit the community a lot because women will be properly educated and equipped by having access to all the right information on the above topics. People will be taught how to manage their

NAMIB TIMES
All eyes on the Fed Since the end of the third quarter markets rallied sharply. Across all asset classes, even commodity stocks rebounded from what was a dismal Q3. Emerging market stocks and bonds recovered well from being battered in Q3 largely due to two factors, a further confirmation that the Chinese economy is weakening rapidly and continued uncertainty surrounding the timing of the pending Fed rate hike in the US. Remarkably, the turnaround (sharp rebound for most of October) came on the back of disappointing US economic data. Specifically, employment growth decelerating which is supposed to be a reason for concern but markets instead interpreted the weak payrolls number as a sign that the 'global lower for longer regime' will continue. Then came Q3 GDP figures and the announcement by the FOMC on their outlook on the US economy and pending rate hike… and volatility returned and is here to stay for the near term at least. US economic growth decelerated… Although on Wednesday the Fed described the economy as expanding at a 'moderate' pace, with Q3 GDP increasing by only 1.5% vs 3.9% in Q2 2015 on the back of an inventory drag. The US economy has failed to consistently break the 2.5% annual growth mark since the end of the 2007-2009 recession.
Solid domestic demand could however encourage businesses to restock and support an inventory come-back and Q4 GDP. Consumer spending grew at 3.2% after expanding by 3.6% in Q2 as the consumers are getting a tailwind from lower gas prices, a steadily firming housing market and lower inflation. US domestic consumer spending looks like the catalyst for the Fed's stance at present. FOMC – October vs September The Fed surprised the market with its statement following the 27 and 28 October FOMC meeting. As the actual decision on interest rates was as expected the tone was more hawkish than before. Rather than using traditional economic indicators on whether to raise interest rates or not, the Fed showed their decisiveness to act in the near term based on confidence that the economy can digest such a move rather than whether it actually needs it. Wall Street rallied on the back of the clear indication from the Fed that it
should act in the near term. However, no such applause in other markets and emerging markets in particular showed it does not have the same confidence or sentiment as the Fed painted that the global economy could stomach a Fed rate hike in December. Even in Europe, despite a weaker euro stocks were down. Markets in Q4 will be economic data dependant and expect economic dataflow to cause swings in sentiment. ZAR & Commodities slips The rand retreated on the back of the Fed's announcement and did not react well to a potential rate hike in December by the Fed. It reignited the fears that such a move would trigger capital outflows from emerging markets. Most emerging market currencies fell on the news from the Fed. Expect further rand volatility and weakness in the near term. Commodities, in a slow economic growth environment suffers, and there is still no light at the end of tunnel for commodities and commodity related
stocks, clearly evident by its reaction post the Fed announcement. As long as the market observes excess supply in commodities, modest growth and signs of disinflation, commodities will remain relatively unattractive and under pressure. Back to the Fed Not to forget, in May this year all commentators were certain of a Fed rate hike in June or July. This sentiment changed over the course of July as economic data did not support such a move. So are we back to the sentiment as it was in May with all pundits betting on a rate hike in December? Pretty much. The fact that emerging markets and Wall Street reacted very differently to the FOMC October statement is a cause for concern and what previously transpired in this year could well happen again. In other words, data could again proof the Fed and pundits wrong. On the one hand you have the Fed fairly 'bullish' that the US economy can absorb a rate hike in the
near term despite only growing only at a moderate 1.5% in Q3 compared to the average growth over the last 30 years of 3.0%. On the other, you have the emerging market and Eurozone that reacted negatively and one can say is acting more from a fundamental view point based on actual weak economic data compared to what the market can or cannot stomach? So, what to watch During Q3 the focus was on China and its economic slowdown. Over the last couple of weeks investor anxiety has shifted from focussing on China back to the US economy. Despite the Fed announcement and its view on the US economy, plunging inflation expectations, a stalling manufacturing sector, the slowing labour market and another Fed delay in October, the question perhaps should be different. In order to answer whether the global market can stomach a Fed rate hike in December or not the question should be whether the US economy is on the brink of another recession? Looking at the data available the US economy appears only to be in a slowdown mode. The risk however has certainly increased. Indicators that might be useful over the next couple of months to keep your eye on is any leading indicators of business confidence or business activity levels, manufacturing data like the ISM New Orders for example and any default risk showing up, in other words what credit spreads are telling us. Looking at manufacturing, the ISM New Orders for example, has in the past been a useful predictor of economic growth for up to six months forward. September's reading at around the 50 level is con-sistent with an expanding economy, but the trend is also negative. A prolonged dip below 50 will spark the likelihood of another recession. Credit spreads widening indicate default risk. Credit spreads, not commonly used as an economic indicator but rather whether there is a default risk could be useful, as a high default risk is normally associated with a recession or sharp economic slowdown. Credit
spreads of high yield and investment grade instruments has been widening of late. None of these indicators currently are sending out a very positive message with regards to the US economy but also not indicating that an imminent recession is due over the course of the next six months. Why would we look at this possibility? Why does it matter to the long term investor? Well, because perhaps recessions really is a non-event for the long term investor. It is always difficult to predict or prepare for a recession. Predicting them in advance is an impossible task and when things actually start to happen, it is often already too late to take action. On average, recessions does not wreak irrecoverable damage and the losses are recovered relatively quickly. Historically equity markets fall in the three months prior to a recession and in the first 6 – 8 months of the recession itself. However, equities then quickly recover and recoup their losses. Within a year and half on average the losses are completely eradicated. So this, a fear of recession or anxiety over short term volatility as we are experiencing at present should not be an
17
overwhelming obstacle for the long term investor. Investors tend to react (overreact) emotionally to a recession and rarely recover from this state of mind. By this we imply that those investors who exit the market amidst volatility or the fear of a recession (let say for example 30 – 50% of your share portfolio is wiped off in a few months or weeks) seldom return to the market. The turbulence is much worse than exiting the market and not finding an appropriate level to return. Post 2007-2009, individual investors have developed a fear of recessions and or market corrections. But this is hard to explain as to why when you look at the figures post the financial crisis. So why make the same mistake twice? The opinions expressed in this document are the opinions of the writer and not necessarily those of PSG and do not constitute advice.
