Following months of speculation and criticism, Power Oyeno, the main contractor on the mass housing programme in Swakopmund, hit back at critics of the scheme this week, when they invited the media to assess the progress in construction.

Mr Paolo Shipoke said, following the launch of the construction programme on 5 June, they already have 309 houses at various stages of completion and that there are currently around 800 workers and 20 sub-contractors on site.

They also made a point of employing local people: unemployed people from the DRC settlement were assisted to set up a company, called Seahawk, through which around 200 to 300 locals (60% women) were employed to do the digging and excavation works. Two of the sub-contracting companies on site are actually owned and run by women, Shipoke added.

Given the pace of production they found it difficult at times to secure a steady supply of 40 000 bricks per day, but they are on schedule and their invest-

ment in the local economy has provided a significant boost to related industries and businesses at the town, Shipoke said.

Oyeno’s project manager, Mr Isaac Muchenga says 120 houses to the north of the DRC settlement are nearing completion and only require some tiling and paintwork before they can be handed over. They are building eight different types of houses to meet the needs of people with various levels of income.

A number of workers reported that they do not earn the minimum wage, as specified in the Construction Federation Industry’s agreement with the Metal and Allied Workers Union, and that sometimes their wages are paid in late. In response Mr Shipoke said they investigated the matter and requested all sub-contrac-

tors to submit their payroll so that Onyeno could determine the actual situation.

Shipoke said they added a specific clause into the contracts to stipulate that sub-contractors must pay the approved rate, or risk losing the contract.

He admitted though that they found out subsequently that the problem arose in cases where some sub-contractors further divided up their work portions and contracted these out to builders, who have no contractual agreement with Oyeno.

Recent work stoppages that delayed the work for one or two days were due mainly to late payments from the side of the NHE, he said. Delays were also caused by the payment systems, which involve transfers to a number of different banks.

Education first, babies later Sharlien Tjambari

Yesterday the Swakopmund District Developmental Welfare Services in collaboration with the Swakopmund District Social Issues Committee had a sensitisation campaign on teenage pregnancy.

The march started at 10:00 from Mondesa Woermann Brock, but all participants assembled at 09:30.

The routes were from Mondesa Woermann Brock, down Independence Street until Usave Shoprite Mondesa then onto August Nangolo street, towards Rakotoka Street and proceeded

to the Amphitheatre in town.

The event was initiated by an Intern Social Worker from the Ministry of Health and Social Services Swakopmund District.

It is a community activity aimed at educating different community members about the negative impacts of teenage pregnan-

According to Isaacks’ uncle, former //Karas Governor Dawid Boois, the accident occurred just after 16:00 on Wednesday when the government vehicle he was travelling in crashed into a bridge near Itsawises settlement, some 40 kilometres (km) north of Keetmanshoop.

He is believed to have been travelling to Keetmanshoop from Windhoek on official business at the time of the accident.

He was alone in the car.

Die Swakopmund International Trade Expo (Swaitex) is gisteroggend amptelik deur die Minister van Seevisserye en Mariene Hulpbronne, mnr Bernard Esau (links op die foto) geopen.

Meer as 140 stalletjies en hope pret en plesier vir oud en jonk is in plek en al die paaie gaan beslis hierdie naweek na die Swakopmund Indoor Sports Centre, waar die geleentheid plaasvind, lei.

therefore established a committee on 15 September 2014 to address teenage pregnancy and other social issues as a safe and secure platform for stakeholders to share ideas on how to best address social problems.

Teenage pregnancy and other social problems are complex phenomena which requires communitycentered approaches in tackling them.

Teenage pregnancy in Namibia has become a growing concern nowadays and hence it has become imperative to look into the various causes of teen-

age pregnancy in order to deal with this issue carefully.

Teenage pregnancy is widely discouraged because of the health risks they raise for the young mothers and their babies.

Teenage pregnancy refers to pregnancy in young girls, mostly aged 15 to 19 years.

The marching team consisted of learners from Coastal High, Namib High, Swakopmund Secondary School and Atlantic Junior Secondary School.

The theme of the campaign/demonstration was "Education First and Babies Later".

Mass housing progress, but problems persist Continued from page 1

It emerged this week that after spending around N$200 million since the start of the project the NHE is now facing financial difficulties and in the absence of additional state funding

will have to borrow the money to continue, raising fears that borrowing on the market could raise the price of the houses.

Power Oyeno is contracted by the NHE to build 2 034

houses in Swakopmund worth more than N$583 million.

The majority of houses are being constructed to the north of the DRC, but Power Oyeno is also constructing 76 houses between Mondesa and the DRC, which have already been allocated to the beneficiaries as part of the Build Together project. These are due to be handed over in November.

For a one bedroom house (core 5) one would need to earn at least N$2 000 per month one of the officials explained.

The mass housing programme however faces a number of hurdles, including the fact that they will have to relocate the residents of the DRC to another place, before they can start building houses in the area.

This may prove to be a dif-

ficult task though, as the residents have repeatedly rejected all talk of forced eviction and relocation, without assurances that they would be able to return or be housed in better circumstances once construction is complete.

It has since emerged that new land (Blocks 12 and 13) to the north-west of the current construction site has been offered to Power Oyeno following a meeting of Council’s management on Tuesday.

Oyeno expects to move some of the DRC residents to Blocks 12 and 13 before they can start to construct houses in the DRC. Precisely how this will be done, as many of the DRC residents do not earn enough to qualify for a house, remains a mystery.

Mr Shipoke admitted that this is a sensitive issue, but said they only build the houses, Council must deal with the political issues.

A further meeting between

Project manager Isaac Muchenga (left) and managing director of Power Oyeno, Paolo Shipoke the company and municipality would be needed to resolve the logistical issues, project manager Mr Gerry Munyama said.

There have been repeated attempts by the minister of local government and housing to scrap and renegotiate the existing contracts to reduce the cost to government, as there is a widespread suspicion among senior government officials that certain firms may have inflated tender prices.

Officials were however reluctant this week to disclose the actual building costs.

Power Oyeno is a joint venture with the South Af-

rican Power Group, which holds a 49% stake, while a group of Namibians own the remaining 51%.

Delta Group of Brakpan, South Africa, also won a contract to build 400 houses at a cost of N$91.6 million.

Ferusa Capital, which is co-owned by the son of President Pohamba’s wife, Mr Waldheim Shiluwa, won a contract to build 600 houses at a cost of N$173 million at Swakopmund, a large portion of which they sub-contracted to the well-established local firm, Strauss Construction.

Ferusa has not yet responded to questions sent to them last month.

MP's defy the law, do not want to declare assets (yet) Jade McClune

MP Kazenambo Kazenambo said he is opposed to an immediate decision on registering MP's assets

A number of politicians insisted this week that the debate on the Code of Conduct for Members of Parliament and the vote on the Declaration of Assets be deferred to a date more suitable to them.

Some politicians seemed to break into a sweat and showed signs of extreme distress and discomfort when the issue of declaring their assets was brought before the National Assembly by the Swapo Chief Whip Prof Peter Katjavivi on Wednesday.

The motion, which requires parliamentarians to declare their assets and interests will not be debated in parliament prior to the upcoming elections, the Deputy Secretary to the Speaker of Parliament confirmed to the namib times yesterday. He said some members wanted clarity on the specific parts of form, on which they are expected to fill in their assets and interests.

The ball was thus kicked into the tall grass. The entire debate on declaring MP’s assets was postponed to 10 February 2015 and there is no indi-cation that any sanc-tions will be brought against those members who failed over the past four years to declare their interests.

Mr Kazenambo Kazenambo objected to any immediate resolution on the matter: “I am seeking clarity, because is it adoption [of the Code of Conduct and Declaration of Assets] after it has been discussed at other levels or is it adoption now at this presentation? If it is now I have got a serious problem with it, because this issue of declaration of interests, as we have raised it was of concern, and to adopt it right away without

having perused this document and debated it at various platforms, I've got a serious problem with that.”

Minister of Home Affairs, Ms Pendukeni Ivula-Ithana also said “Some of us go to the extent of being truthful, not realising that we are making ourselves the punching-bag of the media. Every now and then when something is written about members of parliament and this document, then you see references being made of who has declared what. Really, is that the purpose? If it is the purpose, then some of us are going to have problems, according this document any respect whatsoever.”

Namibia's parliamentarians have not declared their interests in the course of the current parliament, as required by law, and last declared their assets and interests in 2009, as required by the Powers, Privileges and Immunities of Parliament Act of 1996.

The Speaker, Mr TheoBen Gurirab confirmed in June that he would also rather see the registration of MPs' assets start in 2015, when new members of parliament are sworn in.

The procedures, which

MPs were unwilling or unable to discuss this week, were however not new to them, as the relevant documents were made available to them some time ago.

“For our part we publicly distributed the document to the MPs which they must fill in,” Gurirab told the state-owned paper, New Era in September.

“We have on several occasions urged them to declare their assets, but nothing has been forthcoming. Some members of cabinet are hiding behind the fact that they already declared their assets to the appointing authority [the President].”

There is widespread suspicion that some members of parliament may be seeking to deliberately delay or subvert the implementation of the law in order to hide the extent of their accumulated wealth.

Meanwhile, the MP's reluctance to declare their interests was put into sharp contrast with, as yet unconfirmed reports, that parliamentarians want their monthly salaries to be raised to N$60 000, as apparently the current gross salary of N$39 000 per month is not sufficient to meet their needs and status.

Training for Women Piquet Jacobs A Leadership and Management Training for Women in Christian Ministry course was offered to the Executive Committee of the Aitsama Khaibasen Women Charity Group by Ben Uugwanga from Capstone Research Consultancy cc on 3- 4 October at the Kuisebmond Multi-Purpose Centre.

A few of the Course Objectives were to introduce Christian Women in Ministry to leadership and management and its best practice approaches; habits of highly effective people which will enable each to achieve personal leadership and contribute to organisational greatness.

Another important point which was discussed was the power of worship in truth and in spirit and the positive output which can be expected as a result of such a worship attitude.

The character traits of a virtuous woman were discussed and analysed, as well as the Christian Canon which will equip the Christian woman to be a conqueror of new territory both spiritually, physiologically and psychologically.

Important project management and time management attributes and skills essential in effective project implementation was seen as a strong point of discussion with the effective and important conflict management approaches and strategies which can be applied in solving inter-personal and institutional conflicts The training was seen as a great opportunity for these ladies to broaden their horizons and extend their knowledge to uplift their community.

Suspected fraudster, Allen Camm pleaded guilty to three counts of fraud this week.

Conducting his own defense in the Swakopmund Regional Court on Wednesday, Camm admitted that he had willfully intended to defraud prospective car buyers by falsely presenting himself as a vehicle importer.

He told the court that he knew very well that what he was doing was illegal and punishable when he collected more than N$400 000 under false pretenses.

Magistrate Gaynor Poulton found Camm guilty on three counts of fraud, alternatively theft by false pretenses and theft.

He admitted that he took N$191 000 from Mr Chris Booysen to import a vehicle from the United Kingdom in November 2012, knowing that he never intended to import any such vehicle. He used the money for his own benefit, the court heard.

He also defrauded Mr Leonard Damens in December 2012 by taking N$71 600 for a vehicle he never planned to import.

Mr Matthews Jonas also lost N$140 400 to Camm’s fraudulent scheme during December 2012.

Looking unkempt and deeply worried in the

dock, Camm did not dispute any of the charges and told the court that he used the money to pay outstanding accounts and to settle his debts.

Asked why he took the money, he said “I never thought they would make contact with me. They approached me. I never thought they would pay the amount I asked.

I got some pictures [of luxury vehicles] and sent it to them. I never thought they would give me the money.

At that stage it had not even come to my mind [that they would hand over the money]. I had a lot of accounts to pay and people I needed to settle with, so ja, I used it for my own benefit.”

Camm had earlier parted ways with his legal representative when it became apparent that he could no longer afford private legal services; he was subsequently denied legal aid on three occasions.

After his conviction on Wednesday, bail in the amount of N$20 000 was refunded to Camm, but he would have to remain in custody until the sentencing, because he is expected to appear in court

on Monday 13 October in connection with two new charges of fraud and theft that came to light recently, for which he was arrested a week ago.

Outside the courtroom Mr Damens said on Wednesday that “It is not just about the money.

This thing affected us very badly. We trusted the guy. It is as if somebody came into your house and robbed us. He must go to prison.”

Mr Booysen also said that Camm’s crimes have had a devastating effect on the victims and their families, who had placed so much trust in him.

All indications are that Camm will serve time in prison for his crimes.

In an aside Prosecutor Hermien Apollus told him that he could still lighten the inevitable sentence that awaits him if he repays some of the money before he is sentenced on 17 October.

It is not yet clear whether any of the missing money could be traced or recovered, but it is widely expected that other victims may come forward in the coming days.

Gru-moordsaak van Mondesa sloer, verdagte ontduik hof Misdaad Verslaggewer

Man vermoor meisie, hang homself Marshallino Beukes

Die Erongo polisie berig dat die oorskot van ‘n 50-jarige man, Vilho Lukas, Maandagoggend omstreeks 11:00 in ‘n plakkershut in Swakopmund se DRC woonbuurt gevind is, nadat hy homself opgehang het. Die bebloede oorskot van sy meisie is ook in die woonplek gevind.

Volgens AdjunkKommissaris Otillie Kashuupulwa het die paartjie Sondagaand ‘n hewige argument gehad en die vermoorde, me Padelia Velnoma Samuel (44), se buurvrou het haar (Samuel) Maandagog-

gend geskakel om uit te vind of alles in orde is.

Sy het blykbaar geen antwoord op Samuel se mobiele foon gekry nie en die polisie is ontbied.

Die plakkershut was blykbaar van binne ge-

sluit en polisiebeamptes op die toneel moes die deur met geweld oopforseer om die skokkende ontdekking te maak.

Volgens die polisiewoordvoerder het Lukas homself met ‘n tou opgehang en die

oorsaak van Samuel se dood word aan veelvuldige hoofbeserings, asook wonde dwarsoor haar liggaam toegeskryf. Die moordwapen word as ‘n onbekende skerp voorwerp beskryf.

‘n Lasbrief vir die inhegtenisname van die verdagte verkragter and moordenaar, Kingsley Dausab is vandeesweek in the Hooggeregshof in Windhoek uitgereik na die hy talle kere afwesig was tydens die verhoor.

Dausab (42) is een van twee hoofverdagtes en word saam met Michael Tsowaseb (39), daarvan beskuldig dat hulle die oorlede Menesia Owoses vroeg in September 2005 in Mondesa te Swakopmund vermoor het na ‘n bendeverkragting.

Die wrede manier waarop die 34-jarige Menesia Owoses in 2005 vermoor is het skokgolwe deur die kusgemeenskap laat sidder, maar die saak sloer nou alreeds nege jaar.

Daar is wel sterk verwagtinge onder die plaaslike gemeenskap dat reg en regverdigheid aan die einde van die dag sal geskied.

Dausab en Tsowaseb word

beskuldig van moord, verkragting, skending van ‘n dooie menslike liggaam, en diefstal.

Die Staat voer aan dat die beskuldigdes haar dood veroorsaak het deur haar te wurg.

Luidens berigte in the nasionale pers, was Owoses se liggaam ook geskend met ‘n gebreekte bottel, ‘n klip of ander voorwerp, wat gebruik was om herhaaldelik te steek en te sny aan haar gesig, nek en geslagsdele.

Daar word ook sterk vermoed dat die verdagtes seksuele omgang met haar oorskot gehad het nadat sy geswyk het aan haar wonde.

Dausab was vir die laaste vyf en ‘n half jaar uit op borg van N$2 000, maar sy borg was vandeesweek teruggetrek.

Volgens die Namibian se hofverslaggewer in Windhoek het Dausab nie opgedaag vir die laaste twee verhore in nie en ‘n lasbrief vir sy arrestasie is intussen uitgereik.

Tsowaseb was blykbaar ook op die vlug en is in Februarie verlede jaar op Okahandja aangekeer nadat hy versuim het om by die polisie aan te meld gedurende die maand wat sy saak sou voorkom.

Hy is sedertdien in aanhouding. Die verhoor is uitgestel tot 17 Oktober.

New container operations record for Walvis Bay The Port Of Walvis Bay achieved a new record for handling cargo on a single container vessel in the shortest time possible.

The calculation of moves per hour is based on the berth arrival and departure refer to as “First line down” and “last line up” - that is, the actual arrival and departure of the vessel at berth and referred to as unadjusted gross berth productivity, otherwise called Berth Moves per Hour.

Although the crane den-

sity of a vessel and maximum equipment availability plays a huge role in achieving high berth moves per hour, one of the biggest contributing factors are the close working relationship between Maersk Namibia and Namport.

The president pointed out the fact that in other regions of the world, the health and marine biodiversity of the ecosystem are negatively affected by marine pollution.

He also mentioned that the issue of climate change is of serious concern, as it affects the marine, as well as terrestrial or land-based resources.

Some strides towards addressing some of these pressing environmental issues, include the Government investing substantial resources to rebuild and restore fish

WHY? The marine resources are limited and currently some of them are overfished or over collected.

It is necessary that everybody uses them wisely and carefully to secure the future harvesting needs by protecting the stock. Quantity/number of marine resources harvestable, minimum size limits of fish and crayfish that can be caught, open season etc. help to manage stocks to avoid the total disappearance of some species in our waters.

Do not leave bait or fish on the beach!

Either take it home or return it to the sea. This food attracts scavengers like jackals and gulls that prey on other bio-diversity. When you are back home after the holiday, it also inflates the predator population.

Swakopmund International Trade Expo in full swing Marshallino Beukes The Namibian Chamber of Commerce and Industry's Swakopmund branch is hosting the first ever international business expo in town and more than 140 exhibitors are expected to showcase their goods and services at the event.

The expo is piloted under the name SWAITEX (Swakopmund International Trade Expo) and is an initiative of NCCI Swakopmund, with support from their head office. Some of the big names, which are going to fill up the stands are the uranium mines, Namport, Puma E n e r g y, M e a t c o , Erongo Red, Agribank etcetera. According to NCCI Swakopmund's chairperson, Mr Heinrich Hafeni, the main

aim of this event is to give local businesses the opportunity to showcase their products, as well as rub shoulders and promote their businesses with foreign companies.

Mr Hafeni further noted that the initiative was taken after last year's Expo, to think big and create a platform for small local businesses to link with other business fraternities.

With Swakopmund as the tourism mecca of the country, this Expo is the

perfect approach to further strengthen Namibia's bonds globally, he said.

The event, which is hosted at the Swakopmund Indoor Sports Centre, started yesterday and will conclude tomorrow.

This promises to be an occasion for young and old to enjoy, with a merry-go-around and other joy rides, lots to eat and drink and also a beer tent to entertain the thousands of visitors expected.

Every Namibian should be allocated land at birth: TUN The government should introduce a policy of 'One Namibian, One Erf' to prevent the land problem currently being faced by many Namibians, the Teachers' Union of Namibia (TUN) says.

This statement is part of the resolutions of the TUN Congress, which took place at Okahandja last week Friday and Saturday. “Every Namibian should be allocated a portion of land at birth. The struggle was about land, and the land issue has become a gambling issue instead of a national right,� said TUN president Mahongora Kavihuha.

Addressing a media conference in the capital on Monday, he said the TUN also resolved that government should come up with a policy on accommodation rental fees in the country, saying the current prices are 'skyrocketing'.

He stressed that the congress mandated the union to lobby for teachers' housing allowances to correspond to market realities, adding that this does not need to be negotiated - it should just be adjusted automatically as market conditions change.

It further mandated TUN to campaign and constructively engage the State to allocate enough financial resources to build more vocational institutions in the country. Kavihuha also said teachers who mark national examination papers at schools are not compensated, unlike teachers who do the same job at the examination marking

centre in Windhoek and get paid.

He, therefore, called on the Ministry of Education (MoE) to compensate all markers irrespective of where they do the marking.

The TUN president further indicated that the selection process of markers at school and regional level is not transparent, saying some principals and regional office staff deny teachers the opportunity to become markers.

He also noted that teachers are expected to travel from one school to the other due to the cluster system in the country, and such teachers are not compensated for the movements between schools.

These teachers and principals use their own transport and money to get to schools, and the TUN, therefore, called on the MoE to put enough resources aside in order for the cluster system to work.

He noted that the teacher/learner ratio of one teacher for 35 learners per class has not been implemented, saying teachers have up to 60 learners per class at primary school level. The current ratio in secondary schools is one teacher for 30 learners.

Grootbek op Vrydag 'n Opinie deur Marshallino Beukes

‘n Gesprek op kantoor, rakende die feit dat persone wat onder die broodlyn leef, soveel babas kry, het byna in ‘n vuisgeveg ontaard… en terselfdertyd die denke aan die rol gesit.

Uit die een hoek laat hoor een van die kollegas dat dit onaanvaarbaar is, aangesien diesulke persone bewus is dat hulle dalk nie vir die babas sal kan sorg nie, maar tog byna elke jaar geboorte skenk.

Voorbehoed is gratis en kondome is vryelik beskikbaar, is ter stawing van hierdie stelling voorgegooi.

Waarom kom hierdie tendens nie by die “ryk” mense ook voor nie, is voorts gevra?

In die ou dae was kinders as ‘n man se “rykdom” bestempel en het ook ‘n rol in die gesin se sosiale status gespeel, maar hierdie verdediging word met ‘n uitklophou planke toe gestuur.

Ons lewe nie meer in die outyd nie en kinders leer al op die skoolbanke van die bye en blomme en ook dat voorkoming beter as genesing is, woed die aanval voort.

Feit bly egter staan dat daardie kindertjies nie gevra het om die le-

wenslig te aanskou nie en is dus onskuldige slagoffers in ‘n mallemeule van misdaad, ondervoeding, werkloosheid en eweneens die strate.

Na 24 jaar in ‘n onafhanklike Namibië is dit voorwaar ongelooflik dat kinders steeds moet sterf weens ‘n tekort aan voedsel en in baie gevalle ook vars water.

Moeders en vaders wat nie alle faktore in ag neem, alvorens daar vir ‘n baba beplan word nie, dra swaar aan hierdie skuld.

Tienerswangerskappe kan ook geensins goedgepraat word nie, aangesien hierdie kinders tog op die skoolbanke al die feite ingedril word en ek skryf hierdie tendens toe aan pure moedswilligheid en/of onnoselheid.

Dit is regtig nie nodig dat enige kind in hedendaagse Namibië hoef honger te ly of op straat moet bly nie.

Hierdie bal plaas ek

direk in onverantwoordelike ouers en ook die owerhede se hande.

Dink net hoeveel ton vis byvoorbeeld word jaarliks na oorsese lande uitgevoer en die opbrengste daarvan gaan direk na die “fat cats” se alreeds vet bankbalanse.

Ek praat nie eens van al die ander natuurlike hulpbronne wat slegs ‘n sekere groep se beursies laat bult, terwyl die res van die land se inwoners in armoede moet leef nie. Is dit wat ons noem demokrasie en vooruitgang?

Stemtyd is om die draai en beloftes word weer links en regs gemaak, met landsburgers wat vir die volgende vyf jaar weer sal moet raap en skraap om aan die lewe te bly.

Vooreer daardie kruisies getrek word, sal voornemende kiesers defnitief nie net die land en hulself se welstand in ag moet neem nie, maar ook die van ons kinders en “onbeplande” spruite…

“All I found was rejection and discrimination from those I thought would stand by me…”

Sharlien Tjambari

Necessity Wellness Profession was established in order to promote mental wellbeing, counselling ethnicity, mentoring by providing resources and training to assist healing.

The founder of Necessity Wellness Profession is Penina Haimbodi.

When asked what motivated her to establish Necessity Wellness Profession, Penina said “my personal experiences motivated me. There was a time in my life when I was going through a difficult time and I needed someone to help me understand how to get out of that confusion and problem, to be able to understand what the cause of that hardship was but I could not find the answers, all I found was rejection and discrimination from those I thought would stand by me anytime.

I started thinking about other people, what they were going through, how they needed help. I put myself in their shoes and that is how I came up with the idea of a counselling profession”.

Penina also said when she started off, she had nothing, no funding, no sponsors or assistance.

The only thing that kept

her going was her faith.

The very first thing she did was holding a seminar in Okongo and to her surprise, only three people showed up, she didn’t lose hope and continued with the seminar and it went well. She moved to Swakopmund in 2012 and so far she has done women seminars twice in Swakopmund.

She said that she has reached out to a lot of people in Swakopmund compared to where she comes from and she is very proud of her accomplishments.

“After the experience I had in Swakopmund, I thought to myself that there is no limit on going to other towns to encourage people on how to handle things in difficult times” Penina noted.

The objectives of Necessity Wellness Profession are as follows; to raise awareness of the lifestyle choices that individuals make each and every day, empower their thoughts and encourage exploration of their individual

natures; to encourage grooming, build confidence and improve positive behaviour and communication skills among individuals; encourage children, youth and the community to pursue healthy lifestyles through positive role modelling and counselling that seeks to enhance knowledge and change risky behaviour; and to promote the physical, social, emotional and mental health of school children, youth and the community at large.

“Difficulties have no boundaries, discrimination or status. Children at school, adults, rich or poor can all go through hardships.

Everyone needs help, but right now we are focusing more on the youth and community at large.

Everyone who needs help is more than welcome though,” Penina said when asked about her target audience. Necessity Wellness Profession offers free services to everyone who needs a

helping hand.

“I have also been talking about social issues on West Coast FM on the change and live slot, were I talk about social issues affecting the community” said Penina.

She also includes inmates in her work; she visits them in jail and talk to them about social issues.

She said inmates come from broken homes, abusive relationships and many more bad things, so these people need to be counselled before they go out and face the world again because the chances of repeating their mistakes are very high.

The Necessity Wellness Profession is now based in DRC at the Project School; the owner of the school gave her office space for free because he realised how important the service is to the community.

There is a solution to every problem, go out and talk to someone, do not let problems carry you down the drain.

Look for help.

26 housemates, 63 days, USD300 000 – this is Big Brother!

The all-singing, all-dancing 9th edition of Big Brother Africa kicked-off onDStv on Sunday, as the 26 housemates showed off their talents to the continent - giving millions of viewers a glimpse into what makes them Hotshots.

Viewers met the housemates who will be competing for the USD300 000 prize over the next 63 days, one-by-one, as they showcased their talents, live on stage, in one-minute slots.

The studio audience scored each performance with a mark out of 100, and right at the end of the show, Big Brother called the excited housemates together and revealed the reason – the housemate who scored the highest would be the very first Head of House and would be the only housemate not up for eviction next Sunday.

Tanzania’s Laveda led a Top 6 that included Sabina, M’am Bea, Lilian, Arthur and JJ, meaning she is the only one not in danger of going home next week.

The house seems to be full of musicians and singers, with Kenya’s Sabina and Rwanda’s Arthur breaking the mould with comedy routines, Ghana’s M’am Bea showcasing her fashion design talents and Laveda picking up top marks with her saxophone solo. Not to be outdone by the housemates, presenter IK kicked things off with a cabaret-style performance of his own - and the show only got hotter

from there.

The housemates’ performances showed their talent– and some other continental superstars also got to showcase their own swag. Keeping the musical theme going were Emmy Gee, AB Crazy & DJ Dimplez with their smash hit Rands and Nairas, South African hip-hop sensation Cassper Nyovest with Doc Shebeleza and Nigeria’s own BET Award winner Davido with Skelewu.

IK promised viewers a host of twists and turns in true Big Brother style, revealing one up-front: during a new Saturday night task, viewers will get the chance to vote to award one housemate with immunity from being nominated each week!

With the news sinking in that all but one of them are in danger of heading home next week, the housemates set about getting to know each other over snacks and drinks laid on by Biggie - and with a first dip in the jacuzzi.

Enter the 2014 Bank Windhoek corporate challenge relay now As busy professionals who are frequently required to work long hours, as well as work from home, we often find it difficult to balance our professional life and personal life, neglecting our health in the process. Bank Windhoek’s Corporate Challenge Relay gives busy professionals the chance to take time out to revitalise their mind and body.

Professionals in the corporate and public sector as well as members of the public are, therefore, invited to sign up for the 2014 Bank Windhoek Corporate Challenge Relay, which will take place next week Saturday, at the Trustco United Sport Club in Olympia.

Corporate companies, schools and individual groups can enter teams of four members to compete in the Men, Women, Mixed and School categories.

km on a route around the Trustco United Sport Club. The entry fee is N$400 for corporate companies and individual groups and N$200 for school teams. The Relay will be a day-night event starting at 16:00 and ending at 20:00. The prize giving ceremony is expected to start at 20:15.

The Relay is not only an opportunity to keep fit and adopting healthy habits, but also about having fun with colleagues, family and friends.

There will, therefore, be various Hospitality Sites, where teams will

have an opportunity to relax and socialise with their team members and other companies.

The aspiring musician's birth name is Mubonenwa Gravey; the young upcoming artist was born in 1991 and is originally from Katima Mulilo but now resides in Swakopmund.

He has three singles out so far, namely: Warrior ft Linda;You are the One, ft Jowdy and Peace be Still.

His role model is Ludacris, “I just like his personality

traits and how he got to fame, you clearly see that life is not an easy road” Omcee said.

Omcee sees himself winning awards and being popular in five years’ time.

Omcee is busy working on his first album which will be coming out very soon.

Omcee recently performed at the Green Bazaar at the Amphitheater in Swakopmund, during the Biodiversity week. Omcee is also a Geography and Development Studies teacher at Swakopmund Secondary School. He is a real entertainer and you wouldn’t want to miss him

Social media tips and tools for public relations practitioners Social media has become an integral part of our everyday life and the corporate environment. Social media tools, such as Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn amongst others, give organisations a new, creative and instant platform to communicate with its stakeholders, including employees and customers.

Action from last year’s Bank Windhoek Corporate Challenge Relay.

The Bank Windhoek Corporate Challenge Relay is not only an opportunity to keep fit, but also about fun for the children and socialising with family, friends and colleagues.

It allows an organisation the opportunity to interact with stakeholders, listen and learn from them, and design and develop products and services that meets their needs and build and maintain relationships with them.

Bank Windhoek has an official Facebook page that was created to communicate and engage with its clients on products, services and events.

As much as social media has its advantages for an organisation, it also has its disadvantages if not managed properly.

Bank Windhoek’s Head: Corporate Communication and Social Investment, Riaan van Rooyen, shares some social media tips for Public Relations Practitioners in Namibia to help them manage their organisations’ social media presence: Draft a Social Media Policy. The social media policy ensures proper administration and management of social media profiles and governs the actions of employees on social media platforms to avoid damage to the

reputation of the organisation.

Have a Social Media Strategy in place. Bank Windhoek’s presence on social media is guided by a Social Media Strategy.

The strategy guides the Bank on how it should engage with its audience on its social media platforms.

Respond to your audience’s comments and queries at quick turnaround time and when necessary. There is nothing more frustrating for a client/stakeholder than an organisation that takes long to respond, not to mention not responding at all. Your social media strategy should inform you in what time frame you must respond to queries received via social media.

Do not delete comments from your social media platforms, unless they are offensive and discriminatory or in breach of your Social Media Policy.

Post content on a regular basis. This can either be photos, videos or a short description of event, product, service or message you want to convey

Riaan van Rooyen to your audience.

Plan your posts accordingly. Do not just post content for the sake of posting or to give an impression that you are active. Plan your posts according to your marketing and communication campaigns.

Your content should be consistent across all your social media platforms.

Appoint a Social Media Manager or a Practitioner.

Social media monitoring and management is a time consuming exercise, but very important activity that can save your organisation’s reputation. It is only through it that you can identify issues or crises and stop them from getting out of control.

Your organisation’s reputation is at the tip of your

finger.

Always remember that you are posting for an organisation and not as a private person. Therefore, avoid posting comments that you would otherwise not say at a media conference or when dealing with the media.

“Bank Windhoek is committed to use its Facebook page responsibly and as a tool to communicate important information on events, products, services and alerts on phishing and other scams.

The Bank Windhoek Facebook page allows Bank Windhoek clients to give feedback to the Bank and the Bank is committed to respond as soon as possible”, Riaan concluded.

Namib Services reaches new heights Most Namibians recognise the importance of Namibia's mining industry, but very few are aware that suppliers of mining related services play an important role in the operations of mines.

Mining service providers offer a range of services to mining companies operating in Namibia in the areas of mineral exploration, mine construction, mineral extraction, and mine site reclamation. Namib Services is a civil, construction and brick manufacturing company that has built a strong reputation for delivering a quality service, on time, and at a competitive price.

The company undertakes a variety of projects for a wide range of clients, from small private developments to large government and mining projects and specialises in civil construction, renovations, maintenance, tiling, industrial and decorative painting, plant cleaning, building, fencing and brick manufacturing.

The company was founded by Mr Karel van der Merwe in 2009 and from humble beginnings, Namib Services expanded over time to become an established player in the mining civil construction industry today.

Despite four years of successful operations in the building industry, management sensed further opportunities in the civil construction industry and the company's strategic direction was altered to take advantage of these opportunities. In 2012 the company name was changed to Namib Civil and Construction Services to mark this change in focus.

The decision proved to be prudent as Namib Services achieved steady growth due to the successful completion of a variety of projects.

The company has now become medium-sized in terms of increased staff levels and turnover and has grown from 6 employees to a 45 permanent employees and has NPPC accreditation.

Since 2009 Namib Services went from strength to strength, taking on larger and more ambitious projects. Project and contract management systems have been re-engineered to guarantee customer satisfaction. Namib Services achieved NPPC accreditation in 2013 and also updated its Health and Safety, Environmental and Quality policies and procedures.

“Our objective for Namib Services is to be a company committed to delivering reliable services and outstanding value. Through personal and professional integrity, through honouring our commitments, and by conducting our business ethically, we seek to gain the trust of our partners.

They pride themselves on being skilled and experienced in all aspects of civil construction and building industry and this, combined with extensive knowledge, has established the company as major players in this industry.

Natalie Steven talks business One of the most prominent businesswomen at the coast took some time out to talk to the namib times this week about her background in commerce and what motivates her to succeed.

Ms Natalie Steven is no stranger to the world of commerce.

She started her career as a secretary at the Polytechnic in Windhoek before she took up a post at the National Council, where she worked with the wellknown political leader, Cllr Margaret Mensah-Williams.

Ms Steven says that Cllr Mensah the chairperson of the National Council, greatly in-spired her to strive towards her goals and to work hard to achieve them.

Following her stint working at parliament, she decided to go into business.

“In 2008 I started working with my mom [Mrs Grace Rudolph], who was a very strong and well-known businesswoman, at the Namib Clothing company, but in 2011 my husband Lukas and I decided to move to the north of the country, where we set up a branch of Namib Clothing. The outlet in the north was very successful, but after her mother passed away, “in 2013 we moved back and took over the running of the clothing

With hard work they have managed to make a success of that endeavour: “We also added other businesses to our portfolio, including Cape Kitchen, N&L Steven Trading and Nat's Beauty Salon”, she said.

Ms Steven says that the salon has a special place in her business plan, “Salons tend to be places where women make contact and share their experiences. As a woman I realised the importance of valuing yourself.”

She says that based on her own life experiences, her mission is to assist other women. “We are now looking to opening up branches in every town in the country,” she enthused.

Walfish Electric (Pty) Ltd Then and Now, 25 years later…

We would like to invite you to join us on a trip to the past, where we look at the history of our wonderful company, the people that crossed our paths and everything we went through on our journey to the NOW. A Company cannot be a success without a team of staff members that are prepared to walk that extra mile, esteemed customers that are always there to support us and the suppliers to cater to our every need to keep up with the changing trends and times.

Get ready for a wonderful journey into the past, to the beginning of this proud Company's existence…

I would like to take you all back to the year, 1982, the year when Mr HO Himmel established the company in rented premises. He laid down the stepping stones to make it possible for the company to grow from strength to strength. After many successful years he decided to sell the company in the year 1989, to his son, Ecki Himmel and partner, Jochi Braune. With an already sound foundation and lots of hard work, Walfish Electric grew stronger and stronger with each year gone by and in the year 2009 they opened a branch in Swakopmund bearing in mind customer satisfaction and hands on friendly service to society.

Walfish Electric became part of people's lives by providing for their electrical needs in so many ways, from a small light bulb to catering to the Industrial sector of Namibia. They are based in Walvis Bay and Swakopmund, close to the only deep-water harbour in Namibia and

gateway to Africa and serve not only the local contractors and industry, but also the coastal area and Namibia as a whole.

This is the one stop shop for domestic house installations for contractors, suppliers to the Fishing industry and Ancillary Service industry and suppliers of overhead line material for the Rural Electrification Program, Lucy Switchgear and WEG Motors. They supply and deliver to electrical contractors as far as Rundu in the North and Oranjemund in the South and will keep on providing their customers with the quality service that they deserve.

If you think electrical, Walfish Electric will be the place to cater for your needs.

IPM 2014 Conference expected to be best ever Founder And President of the Institute of People Management (IPM) Tim Ekandjo, has given assurance that the 2014 edition of the annual IPM conference will be the most exciting ever.

The organisers say that they have roped in experts and seasoned speakers from across the sub-continent to address a multitude of HR related topics – an indication that they want to take the convention a notch further this year.

The two-day conference will take place from 13-14 October at the Safari Hotel and will be concluded with the IPM Excellence Awards Gala dinner on the evening of 14 October at the Hilton Hotel.

Prime Minister Hage Geingob, will be the guest of honour and he is expected to officially launch the conference on the 13th October.

According to Ekandjo, “We are excited that the Prime Minister will bless us with his presence because his office is also the custodian of human resources administration in government which is the biggest employer in Namibia”.

Amongst others speaking designated to present at the conference is Donna Rachelson.

Donna Rachelson is a branding and marketing specialist and has held a number of marketing director positions in blue-chip organisations including Nando's, as well as marketing and project management positions at AECI and Standard Bank. She is the founder and CEO of Branding & Marketing YOU, which offers keynote presentations, workshops, and strategic marketing consulting, coaching and support services. She is also the author of the bestselling book branding & Marketing YOU, the first South African based personal branding and marketing book.

Other speakers include Sebby Kankondi, Chief Executive of Bidvest Namibia, and he will be speaking on the topic of Executive Expectations from HR. Kankondi is a recognised

executive who has extended his professional horizon amongst leading Namibian companies.

Prior to joining Bidvest Namibia he spent six years as the Managing Director of the Namibian Ports Authority. He holds a degree in Business Administration, and is a qualified Mechanical Engineer.

The IPM Conference will close with the IPM Excellence Gala dinner which will start exactly at 19:00 at the Hilton Hotel on 14 October .

The awards will recognise and celebrate outstanding individuals in the HR professions, and the guest speaker on the night will be no other than Advocate Thuli Madonsela, who is the Public Protector of South Africa or her Deputy in the unlikely event that she won't be able to make it.

Registration to the Conference is still open.

An der Atlantikküste,in der Namibwüste

Lions testen Augen von Erstklässlern Swakopmund (nb) Einmal im Jahr findet das „Swakopmund Sight Project“ statt. Im Rahmen dieses Projektes, das vom Swakopmund Lions Club organisiert wird, werden kostenlose Sehtests bei allen Erstklässlern des Küstenortes durchgeführt.

Hierfür besuchen Mitglieder des Lions Clubs zusammen mit drei Optometristen alle örtlichen Grundschulen. Das Ziel der Untersuchungen ist es, Schüler auszumachen, die auf Grund einer

Liebe Küstenleser, meine Batterie ist wieder aufgeladen - dank des Akkus in Form einer interessanten und gleichzeitig erholsamen Reise durch den Caprivistreifen und zipfel im hohen Nordosten unseres traumhaften Landes mit seiner größtenteils noch unangetasteten Natur (wenn man von einigen Schandflecken einmal absieht) und seinem faszinierenden PotJohann van Es, Mitglied des Lions Club, testet eine Schülerin der pourri an Menschen Hanganeni Primary School in Mondesa auf Farbschwächen oder - (wenn man vereinzelt blindheit.

Somit war es mir zum einen vergönnt, den CapriviTrip mit meinem Sohn zusammen unternehmen zu können, der just zu dem Zeitpunkt sein Medizinstudium in Tübingen wegen der anstehenden Semesterferien unterbrechen durfte. Zum anderen hat der Swakopmunder Stadtsekretär, Eckart Demasius, der den Caprivi - oder zumindest die einzigartige Welt der Piepmätze dort wie seine Westentasche zu kennen scheint, mir angeraten, im September die Region zu bereisen, die den Namen des Nachfolgers des Eisernen Kanzlers trägt. Und er hat Recht gehabt! Da es noch nicht geregnet hatte, ließen die Mossies uns fast in Frieden, sodass wir ganz selten daran dachten, die Ci-

tronella-Seife zu verwenden oder uns mit dem Tabardstift zu bepinseln. Auch hielten die Temperaturen sich in akzeptablen Grenzen, sodass unsere von der Küste her noch nasskalten Körper angenehm durchgewärmt wurden, wir jedoch keineswegs mit hechelnder Zunge und tropfenden Schweißperlen unter breitschirmigen Marulaoder Elefantenbäumen vor uns hinvegetieren mussten.

Sie werden von mir noch Einiges über die zipfelförmige Ausbuchtung zwischen Kwando, Linyati, Chobe und Sambesi hören, liebe Leser, denn der Volksmund sagt: Wes das Herz voll ist, des geht der Mund über.

Die Worte dieser Woche

Je älter ich werde, desto schwieriger finde ich es, abzunehmen, denn mit der Zeit sind mein Fett und ich immer bessere Freunde geworden. Außerdem hab’ ich Frieden damit gemacht, dass ich neue Körperteile kriege, die in keinem Biologiebuch zu finden sind. Zuerst habe ich zum Beispiel gedacht, dass mein Busen nach oben wächst, bis ich merkte, dass es mein Doppelkinn war.

C’est la vie!

Aus Robert Musils Buch ,Der Mann ohne Eigenschaften’ "Es ist ein Trost für uns Menschen, dass niemand unglücklich ist außer durch eigene Schuld. Gefällt es dir, so lebe; gefällt es dir nicht, so kannst du wieder hingehen, woher du gekommen bist.

Herr Diamond meint am Ende seines Buches, dass der Mensch an einer Weggabelung angekommen ist.

Entweder hört er auf, den Globus weiterhin zu verwüsten und auszuplündern, oder aber er schlägt die andere Richtung ein und zerstört die Welt weiterhin im globalen Ausmaße und geht mit ihr zusammen zugrunde. Der heutige Mensch vernichtet global und nicht nur eine Region der Erde, wie es viele Völker vor ihm getan haben, zum Beispiel die Mayas in Mexiko, die als Segelbootbauer Holz brauchten und das Waldsterben begonnen haben, oder aber die Griechen und Türken durch das Abholzen der Zedernwälder.

Es wird eine große Aufgabe für die jüngere Generation sein, auch die übrigen Menschen davon zu überzeugen, Maß zu halten. Wir haben gesehen, welche Probleme durch die “Ein-Kind-Politik” Maos enstanden sind.

Was aber ist das Resultat einer gegentei-

Kann der Globus dann noch die Menschenmassen sattkriegen? Oder werden wir wie die Mayas wieder zu Kannibalen und Kriegern, die ihre Gefangenen am Spieß überm Feuer braten?

Wollen wir uns wirklich weiterhin so kolossal vermehren und alles Land bewirtschaften, um satt werden zu können? Wollen wir tatsächlich, dass unsere Region zur Einöde wird, sodass wir in andere Gegenden ziehen müssen in der Hoffnung, dass dort noch Platz und fruchtbarer Boden vorhanden ist?

Nein, das wollen wir nicht! Daher kann ich nur raten: Lieber Maß halten! Viel Erfolg dabei!

Ich erinnere mich noch gut an meine erste Ankunft auf dem afrikanischen Kontinent vor fünf Jahren. Wir landeten in Mombasa, wurden am Flughafen von einem Bus aufgesammelt und fuhren zu unserem Hotel, einige Kilometer außerhalb der zweitgrößten Stadt Kenias.

Ich hatte mir einen Fensterplatz gesichert und versuchte schon seit der Abfahrt vom Flughafen möglichst alle Eindrücke, die die an mir vorbeiziehende Stadt für mich bereithielt, aufzusaugen.

Ein mehrmonatiger Aufenthalt in einem weiteren afrikanischen Land sollte dies fünf Jahre später ändern. So kam ich nach Namibia.

Rossmund Walvis Bay Golf News Golf weekend results Last week we had to present a club sponsored event. The Friday before that we had a very successful fundraiser and with the WalVISfees in town we expected that players would rather attend the festivities.

Nonetheless 26 players took part in the Individual Stableford competition.

Pikkie Champion was back on form and once again outplayed the field with very good golf.

First was Pikkie Champion 42 points, 2nd Mario Polster 39 points, 3rd Jonas Niilenge 37 points and 4th Pieter Burger 37 points.

Due to the Bok Rugby that was on, we had a written prize giving.

I think that if the TV channel was switched during that wonderful game we might have had some quarrels.

Winners of the Heineken Betterball: Dennis Eksteen, Helmut Ndjendja (sponsor), Johnnie Flook and Fanus Jordaan (RGC Captain) We had a good field of golfers on Wednesday with perfect golfing conditions.

Our sponsor was Bannerman Resources - the winner over 18 holes was Tony on 37pts followed closely by Hennie on 36pts - the 9 hole battle was decided on a count out with Clive taking the laurels.

Saturday (4 October) was the ever popular Heineken Betterball Stableford - I understand the guys got a bit hectic with the Springboks strutting their stuff on the TV - a great time was had by all - thanks to the sponsor and all who came out to play - the winners on the day were the combination of Dennis Eksteen and Johnnie Flook.

During the week our seniors were up and running with their month end breakfast run kindly sponsored

by Oceanview Spar - now just guess who was the winner on a count out? - no don’t tell me - Achmet

Abrahams over Tienie van Rensburg both with 38pts.

Saturday (27 September) saw a few of our senior golfers visiting Okahandja for their annual competition despite a small field the day’s golf was a huge success and all the players were grateful to the sponsor Bank Windhoek and the Okahandja GC for resurrecting this tournament - look forward to seeing you next year.

Tomorrow the Mermaid Casino is in the chair with an Individual Stableford - members please take note that the competition will be run from the Rossmund Lodge as the clubhouse is booked out for a private function.

Thought for the week: “If golf is a rich man’s game, why are there so many poor players?”

Kerk Moedergemeente hul gholfdag gehad.

Die gholfdag het saam met die WalVISfees geval en was weereens ‘n groot sukses. As ek reg verstaan het die dag N$17 000 ingebring vir projekte wat die kerk aanbied gedurende die jaar.

Lekker verjaar Pieter Heunis! Sien later vandag.

The fencing of the Vineta Sports Stadium in Swakopmund is currently undergoing renovations to the value of N$1.5 million.

According to the town’s Municipality, the old fence was made of wood and due to wet and variable weather conditions, over a period of 30 years, the wood had become moldy and unappealing.

“Council needed a permanent fence with a longer lifetime, which is why a brick wall is being erected”, the Municipality’s spokesperson commented.

The estimated time for

completion is end of November.

The tender was divided into two phases and was awarded to two SME’s, Uunongo Technology and Caribian Construction.

“Day of Dolphin” op hande Marshallino Beukes

Die immergewilde “Day of Dolphin” rugbydag het oor die jare bewys dat dit een van die hoogtepunte op die Erongo sport kalender, asook landwyd, is. Daar word met groot belangstelling en verwagtinge uitgesien na vanjaar se rugbydag, wat op 1 November, op die Vineta noord sportgronde aangebied gaan word.

The ladies team receiving their prizes

Namibian athletes show their stuff On Saturday, Athletics Namibia was privileged to host the Southern Region of the Confederation of African Athletics Half marathon championships at Swakopmund.

The event was run in conjunction with the Lucky Star Marathon’s half marathon with no less than 39 athletes from nine countries from the region competing.

The runners set off together with the Lucky Star entrants in both the half marathon over 21,095km and the 10km runners, making a total of 250 runners on the road.

The event started below the tennis courts close to the Lighthouse with the athletes setting off at 07:00. The South African men dominated the event with the first five finishers but in the ladies event, Namibia’s own Alina Armas took the honours almost two minutes ahead of her strongest rival from South Africa.

The team event, where the first four finishers of a country are added together with the team with the lowest total being the winners was contested between South Africa and Namibia as none of the remaining seven countries were able to field at least four athletes in either of the two categories.

In the men’s team, the re-

sult was a foregone conclusion with so many of the South African in the top positions but with the ladies it was a victory by Namibia by the lowest of seconds only.

Athletics Namibia is rightly very proud of their lady champion, Alina Armas and the ladies team made up of Alina Armas, Anna Amutoko, Helena Iipinge, Ottilie Aimwata, Ndahambelele Shelikita and, Josef Mweuya-Ehafo, who all helped to hold the name of Namibia high.

The route had been measured by Mr Pieter de Jager from Athletics South Africa, an Association of International Marathons and Distance Races Level “A Route Measurer” just the week prior to the event and certified as correct.

At the prize giving ceremony the South African flag was displayed and the anthem sung by the athletes and management of the team with a few Namibians who knew the words.

When it was the turn of the Namibian ladies to take the podium, all the Namibians present stood up and sang our National

Anthem with gusto.

It was a pleasure to see and hear this and we sincerely hope a lasting impression was made on the young athletes that had taken part in the schools relay to inspire them to work harder to attain positions as Nation Elite Athletes.

Mr Gideon Mthembu, the Technical Delegate and representative of the Southern Region was appointed by the committee to see that all went well, expressed his satisfaction that the event was properly managed and presented.

Ms Alna Similo, President of Athletics Namibia delivered an inspirational short speech aimed at the male athletes of Namibia and, especially the youth, who are the elite athletes of tomorrow.

Thank you to Lucky Star and Etosha Fishing who graciously allowed the host of the international event together with their premier road running event, even inviting the international athletes and their management to join the Pasta Supper at the Etosha Fishing factory on the Friday evening.

Hierdie rugbydag bied weereens die geleentheid aan klubs om die rugby seisoen op ‘n fantastiese manier in Swakopmund af te sluit. Verskeie klubs van oral in die land het reeds hul deelname bevestig.

St. Lou van Rehoboth, tans die verdedigende kampioen, wat uit verskeie jong spelers bestaan, het reeds hul deelname met twee spanne bevestig.

Verdere twee spanne van Windhoek en Walvisbaai, onderskeidelik, wat uit ook jong spelers bestaan, gaan ook hul opwagting maak.

Die belangstelling is ‘n duidelike bewys dat “Day

of Dolphin” die geleentheid aan jong spelers bied om aan hul onderskeie klubs te wys wat in hulle steek.

Gereelde deelnemers soos Unam, Kudus, ERA, Rehoboth en Polytech word ook verwag om hul deelname te bevestig. Die gasheer klub, Dolphins, is reeds hard besig om voor te berei vir die spog geleentheid.

Vanjaar is Dolphins vasbeslote om die trofee in Swakopmund te hou, want hierdie is die een trofee wat Dolphins ontglip, nadat hulle alreeds verskeie ander ingepalm het.

Die dag beloof om weer-

eens aan al die verwagtinge te voldoen met verskeie aktiwiteite wat aangebied gaan word.

Al die wedstryde sal deur die Namibiese skeidsregters vereniging hanteer word.

Verversings soos braaivleis, "hotdogs", "steak rolls", koeldrank en vele meer sal te koop aangebied word.

Prysgelde beloop vanjaar meer as N$20 000 met verskeie wisseltrofees wat ook op die spel is. Spanne wat belangstel om deel te neem het nog tot 20 Oktober om in te skryf.

Slegs ’n beperkte aantal spanne kan geakkomodeer

word, dus word klubs gemaan om vroeg in te skryf om teleurstelling te voorkom. Inskrywings is gratis maar van spelers en beamptes van al die deelnemende klubs word verwag om ‘n toegangsfooi by die hek te betaal.

Kontakpersoon vir inskrywings of enige navrae is Calvyn Besser, 081 122 6349.

Dolphin Rugbyklub nooi die publiek en belangstellendes van oral in Namibië om die geleentheid by te woon en te ondersteun.

Die dag se verrigtinge sal afgesluit word met ‘n lang-arm dans in die Tamariskia Gemeenskapsaal.
