Musiek, Liefde en Eer vir Koorghoeroe Ena Venter

Maria Davel-Wallis Ena Venter is ‘n wêreldbekende op die gebied van koormusiek, en een van Namibië se groot musiekgeeste, wat ‘n besondere rol gespeel het in honderde Namibiese koorkinders se lewens aan die kus en ook op Nasionale vlak. Sy het op 3 Augustus haar 82e verjaarsdag gevier.

Sondagmiddag het ‘n groep oud-koorlede en bestaande koorlede van die Mascato-jeugkoor, wat sy in 1996 in Swakopmund as afgetrede musiekonderwyser in die lewe geroep het, alles eenkant toe gestoot om by haar te wees, en om aan haar hulde te bring.

Tannie Ena, soos sy by almal bekend en geliefd is, het in Januarie 2012 'n groot beroerte gehad wat die regterkant van haar liggaam beskadig het, en nadat sy ‘n tyd lank in haar huis deur haar vertroueling, Bertha Goases, versorg is, is sy sedert Desember 2013 ‘n inwoner van His House in Walvisbaai, waar sy 24-uur versorging geniet.

“Sy is onder die wakende oog van gekwalifiseerde dokters en susters en ontvang baie liefde en ver-

sorging van His House se personeel, sê haar dogter, Hesta-Marie VenterHerbst, ook van Walvisbaai. Sy sê sy en haar suster Augusta van der Merwe het in samewerking met His House en Mascato die partytjie vir Sondag gereël, “want ons het gevoel dat elke verjaarsdag en elke Kersfees 'n baie spesiale dag moet wees vir haar.” En spesiaal was dit beslis.

Benewens kinders en familie wat so ver as Suid-Afrika gekom het om die mylpaal met haar te deel, het ou vriende ook opgedaag, of aan namib times geskryf om in dié artikel aan haar hulde te bring.

In Julie het Anton en Retha Kruger, bekendes in Namibië en nou van Kaapstad, spesiaal vir haar kom opsoek, en Retha het daarna in ‘n Vervolg op bladsy 2

The groundbreaking ceremony of the Atlantic Pacific Fishing Factory was officiated by the Minister of Fisheries and Marine Resources, Mr Bernhard Esau on Friday in Walvis Bay. Atlantic Pacific Fishing Factory is a joint venture of which 51% is owned

by Namibian long term Horse Mackerel rights holders, Hefdy Group of Companies, Joka Two Fishing and Namibian Seaweed Processing. The

remaining 49% is owned

by Brandberg Namibia Investment Company held by the China Fishery Group, a subsidiary of Pacific Andes International Limited, based in Hong Kong.

In his remarks, Ret. Gene-

ral Raongo Andima, one of the Directors of Atlantic Fishing Company said ‘APF remains committed to the sustainable utilisation of our fisheries and marine resource and the long term success of not only our company, but

also of our national economy. The groundbreaking ceremony is the reflection of our determination to add value to horse mackerel and in the process to create desperately needed jobs for our people.”

Marshallino Beukes Die gemeenskap van die DRC informele nedersetting in Swakopmund is in skok en rou gedompel nadat ‘n agt maande-oue tweeling Sondagaand in ‘n plakkershut-brand omgekom het.

Volgens die Swakopmundbrandweer het hulle die noodoproep ongeveer 20:50 Sondagaand ontvang en hulle na die toneel gehaas.

Ongelukkig was daar niks wat hulle op daardie stadium kon doen om die babas te red nie, en hulle kon slegs die vlamme blus. Die plakkershut het tot as verbrand.

Die tweeling dogtertjies, Grace en Rejoyce Ankonga, was blykbaar alleen in

die plakkershut, vas aan die slaap, toe die brand uitgebreek het.

Volgens die polisiewoordvoerder, Hoofinspekteur Erastus Iikwuyu het hul ma agterna aangedui dat sy net vinnig na die bure was.

Sy het skynbaar ook genoem daar geen brandende kers of lamp ten tye van die brand in die woning was nie.

Die oorsaak van die brand word ondersoek, aangesien die spesifieke area nie oor

Page 11

Young gynmnasts wow spectators elektrisiteit beskik nie.

Die polisiewoordvoerder het ook aangedui dat die uitslag van die ondersoek verdere stappe sal bepaal.

Volgens die amptelike polisieverslag het die brand omstreeks 20:00 ontstaan.

“Hoeveel onskuldige mense, veral kinders, moet nog

sterf voordat daar iets drasties gedoen gaan word om plakkershutte heeltemal uit te skakel en vir inwoners ordentlike woonplekke te skep?” het ‘n diep beswaarde Swakopmund-inwoner gister gevra.

haar gebring as een musikus en kollega aan ‘n ander: Sy is ‘n ware dame met integriteit. Sy kon die kinders inspireer en was streng, maar baie liefdevol!

Sy het ook altyd na nuwe musiek gesoek waaraan sy die koor en die gehore kon blootstel. Ek kon ook later saam met haar die eerste Philip McLachlan Koorwerkswinkel in Johannesburg bywoon.

Daarna was ons albei op die komitee wat die vierde Philip McLachlan koorwerkswinkel in Windhoek beplan het. As begeleidster van die Jeugkoor, het ek beleef hoe dit is wanneer ‘n koor, die koorleidster en begeleier in perfekte harmonie saamkom. ‘n Onvergeetlike ervaring!”

Nóg ‘n jarelange kollega, Philippina Carstens, wat ook Sondag kom kuier het, sê hulle pad kronkel ook al baie lank saam.

“Ons is al vriendinne vanaf 1970 toe ek en my man Willie in haar klein groepie in Windhoek gesing het.

Daarna het ons saam kursusse en wêreldsimposiums bygewoon in Minneapolis, Wenen, Salzburg, Den Haag en Friedenburg.

In al die jare het ek Ena

en ook nie hoor kwaadpraat van iemand nie. Sy is 'n mens met integriteit en baie lief vir haar medemens. Mascato en elke kind in die koor het nog altyd baie na aan haar hart gelê. Dit was vir haar 'n wonderlike ervaring om die kinders op te hef en vir hulle iets te probeer beteken. Die Here haar op die pad gebring van hierdie puik groep wat vele unieke ervaringe gehad het in die buiteland en baie hoog aangeskryf was aldaar. Daar is nie baie koorleiers van haar kaliber wat soveel ervaring en kennis besit nie – ook van die Namibiese tradisionele musiek.”

Sondagmiddag het ontvou in vreugde – die vreugde van saamwees, van onthou, en van erkenning gee aan iemand wat soveel tyd, kennis van en liefde vir koormusiek aan soveel van die Namibiese jeug oorgedra het.

Toe die klanke van die pragtige lied, Meguru, in Tannie Ena se kamer soos ‘n gebed opgeklink het, en baie onbeskaamd trane weggepink het, oor die mooi, en die saamwees, en die dankbaarheid, was daar drie woorde wat in die hart kom lê het.

baie van die koorlede het na die tyd ook hulde aan haar gebring op skrif - dit deel namib times graag op ons Facebook-blad met almal.

Die boodskap wat die Mascato-jeukoor aan ons gestuur het deel ons in Engels: The month of August marks the birthday of many iconic people in Namibia, legends, heroes.

Mrs Venter even shares a birthday with our President Honourable Hage Geingob. Mrs Venter is a remarkable Woman, a mother to many, a teacher, an icon in the choral industry, she goes by many names, many titles, however here she is the BIRTHDAY GIRL!!

Our HEROINE. MRS VENTER, you are a woman admired for your courage, outstanding achievements, and noble qualities and still quoted for what you believed in and stood for.

Van die oud-koorlede van Mascato wat spesiaal gekom het vir Tannie Ena Venter se verjaarsdag-geselligheid

N$25 million Horse Mackerel Factory for Walvis Bay Continued from page 1 He says they are committed to help develop Namibia’s fishing industry in ways which ensure that there is immediate and long term benefit to the Namibian people and at the same time harness expertise of minority partners with long term fishing expertise.

“This enables the all-important transfer skills to local workers and over times the ‘Namibianisation’ of the industry. APF practises strong corporate governance, and our offices in Walvis Bay are entirely managed by Namibian employees. One of our key objectives is to progressively train local crew. A further aim is to nurture a pool of Namibian workers with the potential to be trained for higher positions, including marine officers. Since it commenced operation in 2013 Atlantic Pacific Fishing has created over 120 Namibian jobs through its fishing and another ancillary operations. Once the new factory is completed, the company will create approximately 500 jobs including sea-going personnel”.

He says as Namibian investors they have decided to invest part of the Horse Mackerel quota of the three Quota holders in the establishment of the new factory. “In so doing, we have sacrificed short term gain for long term benefits. The new factory, once completed will be in line with Government initiative to add value as well as provide much needed job opportunities to Namibians.”

In his remarks, Minister of Fisheries and Marine Resources, Mr Bernhard Esau, said the opening

of the Fishing Factory is “indeed a positive and welcome development in Namibia’s fishing sector.

The sector continues to be an important pillar of our national economy and contributes to Government revenue in terms of taxes and royalties. It is also one of the significant employers in the country along with many local companies that provide services to the fishing industry. In this context we view the envisaged construction of the APF factory as a significant development n our economy. Our Government is committed to the sustainable utilisation of our natural resources for the benefit of our people, by encouraging win-win partnerships between Namibians and foreign investors.”

Mr Alan Louw along with the Namibia Marine Resources have jointly agreed to utilise the land with APF. The factory is situated along the ocean, with access to a jetty.

The Minister, Mr Bernhard Esau said that the construction of the AFP factory is a commendable response to the Government's call for creating capital investment and job creation in Namibia’s fishing sector.

“It is imperative that opportunities are opened up for the exploitation of and value addition to our fishing resources. The development, exploitation and value addition to the fisheries resources is indeed key when viewed in the context of our overall national development goals. We are fully aware of the prevailing economic conditions and the challenges within the fisheries sector and will

continue to do our best to respond to the challenges in the most appropriate manner. We will continue to evaluate and review our policies in order to remain abreast of the global economic development that has an impact on our economy. It is particularly important that our initiatives to attract investors into the fishing sector remain competitive and responsive to the needs of local and international investors.”

“No one else will develop Namibia, but Namibians themselves. Therefore as Namibians we should be at the forefront of finding homegrown solutions to resolve the challenges that our nation faces. Let us work together as a team to combat poverty, unemployment and under development in our country.”

The Minister also mentioned that the Fisheries Policy and Marine Resources Act is currently being reviewed. Atlantic Pacific Fisheries Factory also made a N$20 million investment in the vessel, the FV Leader which will be fishing in Namibian waters.

In her welcoming remarks, Mayor of Walvis Bay, Ms Uilika Nambahu said that the groundbreaking of the Atlantic Pacific Fishing Factory is a clear vote of confidence of investment for Walvis Bay as well as Namibia. Special Advisor to the Governor of the Erongo Region, Ms Bobby Kandjala, spoke on behalf of the Governor Mr Cleophas Mutjavikua and urged the directors of the APF Factory to “involve the youth of our society in the employment of the factory.”

Minister praises work of Namibia Fish Consumption Promotion Trust Mavourlene !Gaës

The Minister of Fisheries and Marine Resources lauded the Namibia Fish Consumption Promotion Trust (NFCPT) in his official speech at the launch of the National Fish Consumption Day at a local hotel in Walvis Bay on Friday.

Esau says the Namibia Fish Consumption Promotion Trust remains a key driver in ensuring that Namibia as a country, becomes a success story that overturns the status quo, of being one of the lowest fish consuming countries in Africa, despite having flourishing fish resources.

“We are moving in the right direction, as the Namibia Fish Consumption Promotion Trust has distributed 7 300 Metric Tonnes in 2014 compared to, a mere 500 Metric Tonnes in 2001.”

He says it is his desire to witness the NFCPT playing a leading role in the enhancement of food security, the alleviation of poverty, the improvement of livelihoods and especially within rural communities.

“The National Fish Consumption Day is indeed a vehicle that can positively impact the lives of many Namibians and in so doing, enhance their quality of life.”

Esau has confirmed the Re-

public of Namibia’s commitment to ensure that the fishing sector remains one of the pillars of the Namibian economy.

“It is against this backdrop, which we are currently in extensive consultations to review the Marine Resources Act of 2000 and the Marine Resources Policy that came into effect in August 2004. We as government want to ensure that our Namibian fish resources are protected and stand to benefit the local populace in particular and the global market in general.”

According to the minister the Namibia Fish Consumption Promotion Trust has been pro-active in finding innovative mechanisms to fulfil their mandate, the National Fish Consumption Day being one such noble idea that is enjoying their full support in all aspects.

“It is through this initiative that we can ensure the shared benefits of our infinite resources. The Na-

mibia Fish Consumption Promotion Trust utilises the National Fish Consumption Day to amongst other things, promote fish throughout the country, whilst at the same time imparting skills on how to prepare different fish cuisines.”

Esau has also noted that the National Fish Consumption Day is embraced by all stakeholders within the fishing sector.

“The government alone will not be in a position to accord these benefits to all Namibians, thus your input, contributions and support of both the Namibia Fish Consumption Promotion Trust and its annually held National Fish Consumption Day are indeed highly appreciated and valued.”

Esau says the Namibia Fish Consumption Promotion Trust is responsible for the rising demand for higher value fish products that were previously only earmarked for the export

market.

“I am affirmed in the notion that the National Fish Consumption Day had a role to play in the change of consumer trends. We are aware of Namibia’s vast and open landscape, as the distance between the ocean, the harbours and the major cities and towns’ is so great that it is not always easy to access fish products.”

The Minister applauded the Namibia Fish Consumption Promotion Trust for their efforts in providing not only a variety of choices but, doing so at very affordable rates to all Namibians.

“The importance of the National Fish Consumption Promotion Trust cannot be taken lightly as on this day, we set aside all programmes to be party to the celebrations of our unique resource, namely fish and fish by-products.”

Esau further said the National Fish Consumption Day, which was celebrated on Friday, equally benefits

Minister of Fisheries and Marine Resources Bernhard Esau at the launch of the National Fish Consumption Day in Walvis Bay local communities immensely through the corporate Social Responsibility initiatives.

“This year we will be handing over scholarly equipment to the Otjozondjupa region, where the National Fish Consumption Day 2014 was held, and I trust that the communities that are imparted will guard this

knowledge and pass it on to their future generations.”

In conclusion he has urged Namibians to bear in mind that their support being called upon is not merely as an act of patriotism. “Fish consumption indeed has nutritional value, as it is the ultimate brain power. Trust Fish, Eat Fish.”

COMMUNITY NEWS

“Crime against appropriation of property still increasing due to established market''

Sergeant Ileni Shapumba writes for us:

Economic crimes such as housebreaking and theft, stock theft, general theft and robberies continue to pose threats as they are mostly promoted due to the good market for stolen property among our community.

At the beginning, we should say, we are proud as a region, as we observed the significant reduction in overall crime statistics for the past three (3) financial years: 2012/2013- 6481 cases were reported 2013/2014- 6414 cases were reported 2014/2015- 5818 cases were reported and this translates to a 1,3% and 9,3% reduction in

crime in 2013/2014 and 2014/2015 respectively. However, we are positive that reduction will still be harvested, come the end of the 2015/2016 financial year.

There are contributing factors to this mammoth success: Community involvement in policing activities, sharing of information and enhanced public education and, above

all, effective policing.

However, crimes of concern remain: · Housebreaking and theft · Attempted murder · Passion killing · Stock theft and illegal hunting · Drugs and alcohol related crime · Domestic violence which include rape cases.

There are of course some causes that have been identified, but economic crimes continue to affect our communities due to an established dirty market of stolen property as well as harbouring of criminals, and by not revealing information and reporting them to the police.

While many cases of housebreaking and theft prove to be real cases, there is growing concern from both police, about many of them that after investigation, prove to be fabricated with the intent to claim from insurance. We recently had a case where a man removed the property from the place to

Windhoek and pressed a charge at Tutaleni Police station, of Housebreaking and theft. Upon investigation, it was found that the man had lied under oath through the statement he submitted.

This man has committed at least two crimes, theft of these properties and Perjury when he lied through the police officer (Commissioner of Oaths) by submitting a false statement under oath. We warn those who for the sake of claiming from the insurers , open false cases, that at the end of investigations, they will stand trial.

The crime of theft and other crimes have recently become an organised activity, and we need to tackle that also through, the ''Turn Back Crime'' campaign that we recently launched.

Nowadays, some people, some who are running being prominent businesses, are recruiting well-known criminals who steal property, such as building materials, laptops and flat screen televi-

sions, just to mention but a few, for fast cash to these people. Lack of integrity and selfrespect defines those who make themselves guilty of this!

We should indicate; taking another person's property without the consent of the owner is a crime, receiving or accepting stolen property is a crime, recruiting of another to commit crime is a crime and therefore being in possession of a stolen property is a crime, and that is exactly why we say; Theft is a continuous crime.

People should also remember that criminals do not keep permanent relationships of trust. Today they steal and bring to you, but tomorrow they'll steal from you and take it to another who is also supporting criminal activities.

We need to kill the market.

We need to work together, Police and the Community for the safety of the community and their property.

Therefore, we must not

buy property of any kind that is suspected to be stolen; we report those who are selling property without proof, we need to report those who we know are buying stolen property in our neighbourhoods, to the Police.

Most importantly, any private person other than a Police officer or Peace Officer is empowered by Section 42 of the Criminal Procedures Act, 51/1977 to effect an arrest. We thank those members of the public who are applying this section without fear and I challenge every one of us, that to safeguard our property and that of our fellow Namibians, let us arrest anybody suspected to have committed an offence, suspected to be involved in the commissioning of an offence, or who attempted to commit an offence in our presence.

Lastly, while it's a civic duty upon every citizen to take part in policing activities through Community orientated policing, it is just good, safe and beneficial that everybody participates

in community policing.

I thank our patriotic citizens, business community, churches, other Government officials, Traditional and Political Leaders, media fraternity and schools teachers and principals who play active as well as passive roles to promote safety and security which is needed in our region. We invite everyone to emulate these examples. We wish to see people joining existing neighbourhood Watch and other Community policing forums in all residential areas. The police will also appreciate greatly if all Communities would establish Neighbourhood Watch groups in order to keep away criminals.”

Council rejects objection regarding N$30 000 erf Marshallino Beukes

The Swakopmund Municipality responded to questions submitted to them by namib times, last week, regarding the sale of erf 3486 for the amount of N$30 000 to the Swapo Party.

The particular erf is valued at ±N$2 million. A council resolution (28 January 2014) in this regard states that “Council rejects the objection received from the

Swakopmund Residents Association.”

In their latest letter Swakopmund Residents Association told the town's mayor, Cllr Nehemia Salomon, that they “completely

However the Municipality will submit their motivation in this regard to the Minister of Regional and Local Government, Housing and Rural Development as required in terms of Section 63 of the Local Authorities Act, Act 23 of 1992, as amended.

They furthermore resolved that permission be sought from the Minister of Regional a n d L o c a l

Government, Housing and Rural Development to proceed with the sale of Erf 3486, Swakopmund to SWAPO of Namibia at a purchase price of N$30 000.00, subject to the conditions approved by Council on 27 May 2010 and 27 February 2011 and the

conditions contained in Council's revised Property Policy which include a reverting clause.

Concerning the sale of the old Municipal building (erf 989 Swakopmund) to Messrs Telne Properties CC, belonging to Ms Nathalia Goagoses, fears were

also aired about possible changes which might be made to the outer appearance of this Swakopmund landmark with its historical architecture.

The Municipality confirmed that the building was sold for the amount of N$17 million and noted that the

new owner was informed that the building is one of the landmarks in Swakopmund and if she wishes to change the appearance, an application should be submitted to the Heritage Council and also get Aesthetical approval.

“Only a miracle that they are alive” Madelaine Laubscher

A motor vehicle accident occurred Saturday night on the B2 road near Vierkantklip, when the driver of a Golf allegedly sped and crashed into the back of a bakkie occupying approximately 14 persons. into the back of the Isuzu bakkie near Vierkantklip.

There were 14 occupants in the bakkie. Nine were injured of whom three were hospitalised for observation and was sent home soon after, namely one occupant from the Golf and two occupants from the bakkie,” he said.

According to this spokes-

person, the accident occurred mainly due to speeding.

“There was no alcohol involved. However another accident that occurred Friday morning near Henties Bay, involving a Ford Focus, was due to drunk driving. The driver lost control and rolled the car. The occupants were on their

way to Khorixas at around 10:00. The driver took the wrong road and subsequently rolled the car.

When they did not arrive in Khorixas at the expected time, the people in Khorixas who were awaiting them became very worried and notified their parents in Swakopmund that they had not arrived

“We do make a difference” Madelaine Laubscher

Since the Walvis Bay Reaction Team, in conjunction with the Walvis Bay Neighbourhood Watch and Nampol have been doing crime prevention by patrolling the streets, there has been a reduction in crime-related reports in Walvis Bay. This has been a positive change.

According to a spokesperson of the Walvis bay Reaction Team, they have recently noticed that burglars have changed the time of breaking-in.

“The time burglars are active at the moment is from 05:00 in the morning. We suspect that it is the people walking to town that time of the morning.

Apart from the burglaries in town, the complaints we receive have become less serious,” she said.

According to another member of the Walvis Bay Reaction Team, the crime rates reported to them have gone down.

“We work in conjunction with Nampol and the Walvis Bay Neighbourhood Watch. Each of us patrol two hours per month, which has made a difference.

We however warn the community that burglars change the times of being active and the current time is around 5:00 am.

We advise people with alarm systems to activate it. We also see a lot of cars standing outside at night.

Rather plan to park your car in a yard and do not leave valuable items in the car. As a team, we do make a difference. We cover the

whole of Walvis Bay and Long Beach,” he said.

According to him the Walvis Bay Neighbourhood Watch initially started in 2007 and from that team, members were chosen for the Walvis Bay Reaction Team, all working in conjunction with Nampol.

“We patrol voluntarily, but the two hours per month is worth it as it really makes a difference. We urge residents to become involved and to also be vigilant. We can be contacted at 081 558 1323 in case of emergencies,” he concluded.

Die afwesigheid van toilette in Swakopmund se DRC informele nedersetting het aanleiding gegee dat ‘n skynbaar onskuldige inwoner, wat in die middernagtelike ure noodgedwonge ‘n draai moes stap, deur sekuriteitswagte met pepersproei getakel was.

Mnr Nico Koopman (3de van regs) met van die G4S sekuriteitsbeamptes Aan die woord was mnr Nico Koopman, die sekuriteitsfirma se operasionele bestuurder in die vakansiedorp. Koopman het te kenne gegee dat hulle intussen vier nuwe fietse vir hul “Bike squad” aangeskaf het, en ‘n totaal van ses sekuriteitsbeamptes gaan voortaan per fiets, spesifiek gebiede teen die strand, patrolleer.

Hy het in dieselfde asem genoem dat ‘n vroeë wandelaar, op die wandellaan vanaf die Mole, se handsak verlede week Maandagoggend omstreeks 06:00 deur ‘n grypdief geroof was.

Ongelukkig is die skelm nie vasgetrek nie, maar Koopman noem dat hulle voortaan alreeds 06:00 in die oggende op hul pos in daardie gebied gaan wees, ten einde vroeë stappers te beskerm.

Mnr Koopman het ook sy kommer rakende die geweldige toename van inbrake by besigheidspersele uitgespreek. Volgens hom teiken inbrekers deesdae veral die industriële area, asook besighede in die sentrale besigheids-area.

Huisinbrake is egter ook steeds ‘n doring in die vlees.

G4S stuur ook ‘n waarsku-

wing uit aan ‘n vermeende gemaskerde inbreker, wat blykbaar net op besigheidspersele konsentreer, dat hulle warm op sy spoor is en dat dit net ‘n kwessie van tyd is voor sy turf gaan sit.

Die meneer is blykbaar al op verskeie geslotekringtelevisiekameras vasgevang, terwyl hy besig met sy onheilswerk is.

Ongelukkig is sy vermomming (balaklawa en sonbril) blykbaar baie goed, maar Koopman is vol vertroue dat hy binnekort agter slot en grendel gaan wees.

Ter afsluiting het mnr

Koopman ander sekuriteitsfirmas, asook buurtwagte bedank vir hul bystand tot dusver, en hulle genoop om voort te gaan om ten alle tye hul volle samewerking te gee.

Hy wil ook voornemende besoekers aan die vakansiedorp die gerusstelling gee dat hulle rustig hul vakansie teen die kus kan geniet, aangesien hulle ten alle tye G4S se op en wakker sekuriteitsbeamptes se beskerming gaan geniet.

Volgens die onvergenoegde en hoogs ontstelde inwoner van DRC (naam is bekend aan die koerant) het sy spysvertering ongeveer 24:00 die betrokke aand probleme gegee en moes hy hom noodgedwonge na ‘n oop vlakte naby sy woning haas om verligting te soek.

Volgens hom is sy woning nie ver vanaf die opgeskorte massabehuisings-projek geleë nie. Hy vertel voorts dat, nadat hy sy ding in die veld gedoen het en oppad huiswaarts wou keer, drie persone hom blykbaar genader en beveel het om te staan.

“Aangesien dit laat in die nag was en ek nie geweet het watter bose planne hulle dalk mag hê nie, het ek in my huis se rigting begin hardloop,” vertel die 43-jarige klaer.

Die drie mans het hom blykbaar agternagesit tot by sy huis, waar hy die deur van binne gesluit het en sy vrou van die situasie ingelig het. Die mans het blykbaar aan die deur ge-

hamer en hulself geïdentifiseer as sekuriteitsbeamptes.

Sy vrou het, volgens hom, die deur oopgemaak en nadat hulle na buite getree het, het die wagte blykbaar aangedring om te weet wat hy in daardie omgewing gaan doen het, en waarom hy weggehardloop het.

Hy noem dat hy aan hulle verduidelik het van sy maag-probleem, maar skynbaar is daar na geen rede geluister nie en die sekuriteitsfirma se hoof is ontbied.

Met die hoof (toesighoudende beampte) se aankoms het hy klaarblyklik sy manne gevra wie die “verdagte” was en nadat hulle die klaer aan hom uitgewys het, het hy na bewering sonder ‘n woord tot voor die man gestap en hom direk in sy oë met pepersproei gespuit.

Die klaer vertel dat hy op die grond neergeval en rondgerol het en dat dit ten aanskoue van talle ooggetuies, sy vrou en kinders plaasgevind het.

Die hoof-sekuriteitsbeampte was skynbaar baie arrogant en het persone wat met selfone die petalje aanskou het uitgejou en gesê dat hy nie “worry” as hulle fotos neem of bandopnames maak nie. Hy het glo hierna in sy voertuig geklim en weggery.

Die klaer moes die volgende dag na die Staatshospitaal se ongevalle-afdeling gaan, waar sy oë gereinig is en hy het ‘n klag van aanranding teen die sekuriteitswagte aanhangig gemaak (CR 37/08/2015).

Tydens die onderhoud met namib times het die klaer se vrou genoem dat inwoners van DRC, veral vroue en kinders, in vrees leef aangesien hulle verplig is om in die oop veld toilet te gebruik, weens die afwesigheid van toilette. “Ons kan verkrag, aangerand en selfs vermoor word.

Die Munisipaliteit sal asseblief na hierdie probleem moet kyk en ons so gou as moontlik tot hulp snel deur voorsiening vir toilette te maak,” het sy gepleit.

Where to Fish

Reading the “Editor’s Desk” in the Namibia Economist today one can’t help thinking: are there similarities between the Glass Factory in Tses (which the editor discusses) and the Desert Rose project planed for south of Swakopmund.

Read the editor’s full account of the factory story (http://www. economist.com.na/editors-desk).

Surely you will be struck by his pronouncements, such as these: “It is now almost four years ago that the socalled Groot Group announced they are working on preparations to bring a world-class glass factory to the onehorse town Tses, not far south of the regional border between Hardap and Karas. That first release sounded so convincing, it was even forwarded by a local stock broker through their news service to give prospective investors a glimpse of the intended mega-investment in the Karas Region.”

“If the claims around the

project were more rational, perhaps I would have shrugged this one off as just another scheme. But to claim contracts worth billions and to throw an employment figure of 40,000 around, is stretching the imagination.

I think what captures my attention most, is the claim last year that the government will take up shareholding in Tses Glass to the tune of N$800 million. This immediately brought back flashes of a couple a million, or even a hundred million going missing at parastatals by self-styled investment managers, a series of crimes which to this day has not been investigated, or the funds recovered.

Was this N$800 mil-

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.

Where can you get a license for angling, crayfish diving & bait/mussels collection?

lion claim the missing link I was looking for?

It is entirely speculative on my side, but if the promotor claims these outrageous figures, participation and contribution, is Tses Glass not a grandiose scheme to pave yet another way

between government coffers and a very small number of insider beneficiaries”.

If the Glass Factory at Tses caught his attention he may be surprised by what may catch his attention about the Desert Rose project!

It may be highly informative to him, his readers and all Namibians.

Mel Botes in Swakopmund Marshallino Beukes

Die skrif is aan die muur. Mel Botes, legendariese kitaarspeler en kunstenaar van Suid-Afrika, nou half-Swakopmunder, gaan Namibiërs help om 2016 binne te gaan, wanneer hy op 31 Desember The Dome (Swakopmund Binnenshuise Sportsentrum) op horings gaan neem.

Die papierwerk tussen die twee partye is gister afgehandel, met Mel wat persoonlik teenwoordig was. Tydens 'n eksklusiewe onderhoud met namib times het hy genoem dat hy alreeds 'n paar keer in Namibië opgetree het, maar dat dit elke keer net meer ongelooflik is. Volgens

hom is hy mal oor Swakopmund, met die netheid van die dorp wat veral beïndruk. Hy is van mening dat Swakopmund oor die potensiaal beskik om 'n internasionale stad te word.

Mel het ook sy bewondering jeens The Dome uitgespreek, en genoem dat dit vir hom 'n eer en

voorreg is om met sulke revolusionêre persone, bedoelende die ontwikkelaars van die Sentrum, te werk.

The Dome Swakopmund, in lyn met hul visie om erken te word as die plek van keuse vir top-gehalte nasionale/ internasionale geleenthede, beplan 'n opwindende en interessante program vir Desember 2015. Die program bestaan uit 'n potpourri van sport, familievermaak, en musiek van hoogstaande gehalte.

Vanaf 9 tot 14 Desem-

ber word die Zone VI Afrika Tafeltenniskampioenskappe aangebied.

Vanaf 18 tot 23 Desember besoek die opwindende Zip Zap Sirkus weer Swakopmund.

Die hoogtepunt van die program is natuurlik Mel Botes met die produksie, 'Dark Side of the Moon, ‘n huldeblyk aan die klassieke rockmusiek van die supergroep Pink Floyd se laat sestig fenomeen, en een van die topverkopers van alle tye. Die tweede

helfte getiteld, 'Dominoes' is 'n kombinasie van meer kommersiële liedjies, asook 'n versameling klassieke internasionale treffers van groepe soos Dire Straits, Deep Purple, The Doors en bekende kitaarspelers soos Carlos Santana, Eric Clapton en vele ander verrassings. Oorspronklike songs van Mel Botes maak ook deel uit van hierdie repertorium.

stone for development and social justice.

“More importantly early education provides a solid foundation for the love of learning, it is well documented that a child develops 90% of their adult side brain during their first five years of life” she said.

Nambahu urged parents and the society to nurture, stimulate and expose their children to learning within their early developmental years.

She added that the construction of the new Pre-school classrooms, within a safe environment for learning and stimulation, is a giant step towards developing the intellectual capacity of the future leaders, a task that cannot be dispensed with.

Nambahu in conclusion

Mavourlene Gaes stressed that children need lots of intellectual, emotional and physical stimulation. She says higher quality education in these early years makes a huge difference as babies become toddlers and automatically pre-school scholars.

acebook Swak diens, groot namib times readers’ comments rede tot kommer! Foetus found at Kuisebmond pump station Saterdag het my heerlike snuffeltog in Swakopmund se winkels verander in ‘n groot drama. Ek was in die Woerman Brock-omgewing toe moeder natuur my roep. Ek skarrel toe na die naaste kleedkamer, en daar gekom, vind ek ‘n kleedkamer sonder enige toiletpaper.

Ek doen toe navraag by die dame wat die plek skoonhou, net om haar te vind, met ‘n gesig vol gesigseep – sy was besig om haar gesig in die wasbak in die kleedkamer te was.

Sy verduidelik so tussen die gesigwas deur met ‘n baie arogante houding, dat die drie doller wat ek moes betaal vir “right of admission” terwyl sy toe vir my wys op die kennis gewing bord – glo geen papier sou insluit nie. Sy beweer toe ewe sy hoef nie aan my papier te verskaf nie, en dat die N$3 volgens haar haar geld is.

Nodeloos om te sê, ek sien toe heel rooi! Ek dring ook toe aan om met haar bestuur te praat, waarby sy toe antwoord, dat sy nie weet wie

A foetus was discovered by workers yesterday during a daily routine cleaning of the drain at the Kuisebmond pump station.

dit is nie. Sy sien toe sy gaan nie wegkom met haar swak gedrag en wolhaarstorie nie, en neem my toe uiteindelik, nadat sy haar gesigwas-prosedure voltooi het, na die bestuur se kantore agter in n gangetjie. Die kantoor was gesluit, aangesien dit Saterdag oggend was.

Ek besluit toe, om Swakop te help om dalk volgende keer hul eerste plek in Kwela waardig te wees, die saak los ek nie daar nie – so, my volgende stop is toe by Woerman Brock

se bestuur. Nadat die saak bespreek is met die skoonmaker, vra ek vir namib times om dit asb verder te vat met WoermanBrock se bestuur. Diens aan die kus het groot ruimte vir verbetering.

(Baie dankie aan die dame wat my wel toe te hulp gesnel het met haar rol toiletpapier onder die arm, ook duidelik deel van die kompleks se personeel, maar met ‘n heel ander houding as die skoonmaker.)

Word kar oppassers beheer deur ‘n beheerliggaam?

Walvisbaai word werklik berug oor sy karwagte - hulle is óf dronk – óf hulle sal die rand wat jy wel gee teruggooi op jou kar se neus.

Frank Boye So jy wil eerder dat die kind sy lewe lank ly as die ouers nie ‘n kind wil hê nie?

'n kind sien die man is nie homself nie, en het die motoriste net eenvoudig hul normale gang gegaan.

Die man het toe na die motors in die systraat gegaan, en letterlik almal gepla. Ek het ’n paar fotos van die “dronk karwag” geneem, as bewys.

My vraag is - wie hanteer dié mense, en hoe is dit moontlik dat so ‘n mens net eenvoudig helder oordag ‘n taak op hom kan neem, wat sulke erge reperkussies kan hê? Soos die foto’s bewys, het die man amper sy rieme styf geloop...

Benzhino Cascarino Oaseb Taxi drivers are intrusted with the kidz to pick them up directly after school.

These kids seems to be waiting for their transport for a long period and out of boredom they start this dangerous games. I believe that if taxis and the parents who pick them up after school are there on time or are already waiting for pick this won’t happen. I personally have seen this happen to my own kids. The school is only responsible for the safety of the kids only 10 to 15 minutes after school.

The Doodle sessions are organised by Life in Namibia magazine, as part of their social responsibility project “NIGHT OF 1000 IMAGES”. Saturday saw another successful doodle morning, with about 30 doodlers, at Shalom Farm.

These doodle sessions are for people, young and old, to get together and draw, sketch or doodle on an A5 piece of paper. All these artworks will be sold at the end of the year at an art exhibition called “NIGHT OF 1000 IMAGES” and the money raised will go towards buying a special wheelchair for Doloris.

Thanks to sponsorship from Atlantic Villa, Travel Smart and Hawk Photography, the art materials are free!

While he was doing his thing on sound-cloud, he was also involved in the founding of the 064 – clothing line. This also turned out to be a big success and Shago is currently the brand ambassador, with Johra Muvuma, another Swakopmunder, the sole owner.

The beat was picking up and during 2013 Shago released his second mixtape, titled “Boundaries of Innovation” with Beatslangers in Windhoek and put

it out as a free download project again. According to the rapper the response from local supporters was massive, which made him decide the time was right to release an album.

It took him a full two years to record the album and reaching his goal. Recording was done at Jocksman’s Studio and mastering was done at Ongushu records in Swakopmund.

On 18 May 2015 he eventually released his debut album (Urban Warfare), which he funded entire-

Welwitschias beat Lions in Africa Cup match

Namibia beat Kenya 46-13 in an Africa Cup rugby match at the Hage Geingob Rugby Stadium in Windhoek on Saturday.

It is the 15th edition of the Africa Cup, an annual international rugby union tournament for African nations organised by Rugby Africa.

Namibia are defen-

ding champions and have won the cup four times.

The victory against Kenya was sweet revenge for Namibia after losing 22-29 to Kenya last year in

Madagascar in the opening match of the Confederation of African Rugby (CAR) tournament qualifiers for the 2015 Rugby World Cup. On Saturday, Namibia opened scoring in the early minutes of the game with a penalty by Theuns

Kotze.

Kenya retaliated minutes later through a Darwin Mukidza penalty.

N a m i b i a ' s We l witschias extended their lead through fullback Chrysander Botha's try, Kotze's conversion and penalty to take the score to 13-3.

Mukidza then recorded a second penalty for Kenya.

Namibian winger David Philander also scored a try before assisting Darryl de la Harpe with his first try. Kotze converted one but missed another conversion to end the first-half 256.

Minutes into the second half, De La Harpe scored his second try of the game and Kotze converted successfully to extend their lead to 32-6.

Namibia then scored a penalty try worth seven points, before Renaldo Coetzee scored the host's last try and Kotze making good the conversion.

At that stage the score was 46-6 in favour of the home team.

Kenya's Jacob Ojee caught the Namibian defence off-guard and managed to score their only try of the game a few minutes before the final whistle.

Mukidza then converted.

Speaking to the media after the game, Namibian captain Jacques Burger said the players are currently in good spirits and are looking forward to their first-ever World Cup victory.

“We prepared well for this game and when we came into the game, we took our chances.

“The scoreboard showed good results,

but the team still needs to improve on some aspects as the World Cup is tougher than this,” he said.

Burger added that the mood in the camp is positive ahead of the World Cup set for England from 18 Septe mber to 01 November. Namibia is in a group with Argentina, Georgia, New Zealand and Tonga.

Kenya's captain Brian Nyikuli said his side did not take their chances in the first half but they are looking forward to playing Namibia again in the return leg of the Africa Cup after the Rugby World Cup. Namibia will face Zimbabwe in its next Africa Cup match set for the same venue on Saturday, 15 August.

Namibia plays in Division 1A against Tunisia, Kenya and Zimbabwe. Namibia beat Tunisia 22-14 in June this year in Nabeul, Tunisia.

Young gymnasts wow spectators Marshallino Beukes

The 2nd Qualifying Competition for Rhythmic Gymnastics was held in the Sport Dome in Swakopmund this weekend and parents and spectators were wowed by the skills, displayed by these gymnasts.

The competition was hosted by Ocean View Rhythmic and all rhythmic gymnasts from Namibia competed for qualifi-

cation for the Namibian National Championships.

The Namibian National Championships will be hosted by

Walvis Bay Gymnastics Club, on 23 and 24 October.

This weekend’s competition also served as a further platform

for the selection of rhythmic gymnasts to compete at the annual South African Gymnastics Games, Zone VI and African

Championships.

The SA GymGames will be hosted at WITS University, during the week of 5-9 October.

Rhythmic clubs which participated were Ocean View Rhythmic, Walvis Bay Gymnastics Club, Windhoek Rhythmic

His House Tri-sport Event here to stay Madelaine Laubscher The His House fundraising committee accommodated athletes for the event. It included a corporate Golf day on 31 July at the Rossmund Golf Course in Swakopmund and a cycling and running event at Dune 7 the next day.

Fifteen teams participated in the Golf Day, sponsored by Welwitschia Hospital.

According to the spokesperson, Mrs Ina Jones, the weather was fine and the day was very pleasant.

“On registration morning, the first entries received a goody bag. Goody bags were provided by Welwitschia Hospital and to make things interesting, His House sponsored the T-off. One player of each team had to T-off from the commode.”

Saturday was the Cycling and Running Event, sponsored by Sanlam where 107 cyclists and

99 runners started off in a typical East-weather day. At the end all teams received a prize.

“Everyone was sand blasted after their race. All participants received a finisher’s medal which they deserved after taking part in such a sand storm,” she concluded The Dream Team Walvis Bay was the winning team with Gordon Damster, Pieter Fox and Andrew van Schalkwyk.

The best dressed team was the First National Bank (FNB) team with Schalk van Wyk, Willie Venter and Wayne Hart.

The team with the best spirit was the Woker Freight Team with Jerry Hartog, P Lohmann and Dennis Echsteen.

Ms Petro Jones held a speech at the event. “I want to thank our Heavenly Father for this event and everyone who has taken the time to join us. We apologise for the few glitches and thank you for understanding. It is our first event of its kind. We look forward to grow with practice as this will become an annual event.

His House Care Centre has recently celebrated their 10th birthday. Dr Gustav Bertels-

“Currently we care for 21 inhouse residents. Our motto is to provide care with a vision of making it affordable for the elderly, needy and vulnerable.

Our passion lies in the concept of creating a homely and Christian environment so the transition from home to a care centre is done with dignity and respect,” she said.
