A fatal accident claimed the lives of two persons on Sunday morning at around 5:00 in the vicinity of the Walvis Bay Salt works. The driver, Mr Jean Pierre Du Plessis (24), has been charged with reckless and negligent driving and culpable homicide. According to a member of the Walvis Bay Reserve Force, who was at the scene of the accident, a combination of alleged speeding and drunk driving contributed to the accident. Two fatalities were reported while three other passengers sustained critical to minor injuries. All the injured were stabilised at the scene and transported to the Welwitschia Hospital by the St Gabriel Community Ambulance Service. According to witnesses the vehicle overturned and flipped seven times before coming to a standstill. Mr Jaco Snyders from the Walvis Bay Reserve Force confirmed to the newspaper that “the incident occurred at around 5:00 on Sunday morning. The driver of a Volkswagen Polo Vivo, who was apparently under the influence of alcohol, was asked to slow down by the driver of another
vehicle, one of his friends, who reportedly followed the Polo Vivo. The driver of the Polo replied that he was just going to have another drink and then drive again. After he started driving again, he lost con-trol of the vehicle which left the road and over-turned. “We are of the opinion that the cause of the accident was speeding, however the police will have to determine and con-firm what the cause was” said Snyders. Two pas-sengers (both male) died at the scene. Another male pas-senger was transferred to Windhoek due to the nature of his injuries. He had to be put into a coma (induced) in order for the swelling of his face to subside

New Sewerage Plant presents complications

It came to light that the new Sewerage Treatment Plant in Swakopmund, valued at approximately N$160 million, is experiencing complications. A series of questions in this regard were forwarded to the town's municipality and it was confirmed that “several minor complications and some unexpected process complications, such as foam forming on the fluid and blocking sand filters”, are being experienced. According to the Municipality of Swakopmund the problems can be resolved, as they have a team of experts at the new plant, working 24 hours around the clock, monitoring the process and technicalities. Thus,
repairs and amendments are recorded, reported and done immediately. Both the old and new plants are currently in use as a precautionary backup for the new one, because the new plant has not been proven operational and also to save on electricity, the municipality states. They further noted that starting up with the second stage of the new plant will result in doubling the electrical cost, while only handling about 5% of the flow. Continues on page 2

Saltpan road Fuel station at Langstrand CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1
He is in a critical condition. Another male passenger sustained injuries while the driver was only slightly injured. Both were treated and subsequently released from the hospital. Nampol Regional Crime Coordinator, Deputy Commissioner Ottilie Kashuupulwa confirmed yesterday that one of the deceased is Mr Richard Siegfried Strzelechi (22). “His next of kin was informed as his parents were at
the scene. The name of the second deceased could not be released, due to his next of kin not being informed yet.” According to the information received, the driver was allegedly under the influence of alcohol, but Commissioner Kashuupulwa said that a blood alcohol test could not be performed in time. “He can consider himself very lucky. He should have been charged for drunk driving as well.”
New Sewerage Plant CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1
The new Sewerage Treatment Plant is in full use since 2013 and it was built in two parallel stages, with only the first stage being fully operational. It was further stated that the old plant in Tamariskia will be retained operational, but only in standby mode, to act as backup for the new plant. This operation might carry on for some time and the reservoirs will be maintained fully operational to store the purified effluent, prior to distribution to the town. The stench, which residents in the old plant's area have to endure, is due to
anaerobic fermentation of sewage, while in reticulation, resulting in “septic” conditions, with noxious gases emanating from the fermentation process, the municipality explained. This stench, which is prominent at the old plant is said to be controlled by using a system which utilizes active carbon and peroxide to remove these gases from the collection chamber. The process is successful, according to the municipality, but due to various reasons the collection chamber cannot be kept sealed at all times. Additional solutions are being considered, though.
Potgieter. The group plans a “mixed development” on the erf and not just a fuel station. It is understood that the property will possibly house a boutique hotel, laundry and convenience store if and when approved. Mr Sardinha said yesterday that he could not provide a definite time frame, as they first need to get through all the legal hurdles before they can start with construction, which he hoped would kick off within the year. The development will be undertaken in various phases though, but he noted that the clearance process may take a few months and that the property would still have to be rezoned to 'business'. One of the main backers, quantity surveyor Koot Potgieter, said it makes
sense from the developers' standpoint to build a fuel station at Langstrand, but said he was also aware of some objections. Mr Potgieter concurred with Mr Sardinha that the project cannot proceed until they have obtained the necessary environmental clearance for the project: “That is currently our priority.” Potgieter noted that they are still in the process of assessing which supplier to go with, but that a definite decision could only be made once all the legal hurdles have been cleared. Phillip Hookes, an environmental consultant for Geo Pollution Technologies told the Namib Times yesterday that they are currently in the initial stages of an environmental impact assessment. Next they would
Attention Grade 12's!
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1
provide the Environmental Commissioner with a scoping report, taking into account public concerns, as well as a preliminary environmental impact assessment. The public consultation process about the new fuel station starts on 23 January. The overall environmental management plan will have to be reviewed and approved by the Ministry of Environment and Tourism before the developers can proceed, but if the Commissioner concludes that the area is too sensitive and that there is a risk of irretrievable environment damage, he may request a more detailed impact assessment and environmental management plan before any development proceeds.

Electricity for 165 homes in Uis Erongo RED reached another milestone on Friday, 20 December 2013 when it electrified 165 houses in Omkhaindare suburb in Uis. The electrification of these houses is part of the company's new vision to provide electricity to all by 2020. This project was initially scheduled to be completed early next year. However, Erongo RED decided to fast track the project so that it can be completed before the festive season. Over 250 residents from Uis and surrounding villages were in attendance to observe this milestone. In his welcoming remarks, the Regional Councillor of Daures Constituency, Cllr Ehrnst Katjiku said “today marks another important achievement for Daures Constituency in general but in particular Uis settlement where we are witnessing the official inauguration of electrification of 165 houses in Uis. This gesture was long overdue and the residents were in the dark for the past 23 years of independence and before, they were denied access to electricity for very long.

Vandalism at Swakopmund beach Some holiday-makers who visited the beaches of the coastal towns of Walvis Bay, Swakopmund and Henties Bay during the 2013 festive season have left without properly disposing their rubbish. Coastal municipalities went the extra mile to avail the necessary facilities like dustbins and toilets for the convenience of the visitors, but it appears that revellers did not see the need to make use of them. The M.D. Cleaning Services company, contracted by the Walvis Bay municipality to clean its beaches, singled out Kuisebmond Beach at the town as an example. According to the company's owner, Anton Daniel it was unbelievable how Kuisebmond Beach were littered after Christmas and New Year celebrations. The company apparently ran out of garbage bags on Christmas and New Year day, because of the amount of rubbish at the venue
In the wake of an unusually good Summer-season, enjoyed by throngs of visitors and holiday makers to our beautiful coast, we are appalled to see the acts of malicious vandalism, by senseless perpetrators, intent on ruining the pleasure for others, and the hard earned efforts of our Municipality. No less than 5 benches along our walkway have been totally 'trashed', others less damaged, in one evening’s destructive rampage. What a tragic and sick society we have become, if there is the need to destruct and destroy, rather than efforts to nurture, hope and enjoy the peace and beauty of our surroundings. It is a SAD start to a hopeful new year. Reader’s contribution.

License to kill black rhino sparks protests The decision by the Namibian government to auction off a permit to US-based hunters belonging to the Dallas Safari Club has made international headlines and sparked widespread outrage. At the auction on Saturday the license to kill a rare and endangered black rhino in Namibia fetched US$350,000 (N$3,724,157). The auction made bold headlines around the world and has been the subject of heated debate on social media. The auction also sparked a campaign of anonym o u s c y b e r- a t t a c k s against all websites of the Namibian government last week. It was reported on Thursday that the FBI (Federal Bureau of Investigation) had been called in after allegations surfaced that the organiser of the auction had been threatened that he may be killed if they go ahead and shoot the rhino, which campaigners have nicknamed 'Ronnie'. Hackers from around the world, loosely associated with animal rights causes, threatened that unless the license is revoked and the rhino released within 48 hours, they would release highly sensitive information from the Namibian government's computer networks and server. Using a series of DDoS attacks (distributed denial of service) the 'hacktivists' managed to shut down the websites of the prime minister and president, the police, the Government Institutions Pension Fund and the Bank of Namibia last week. They also hacked into and released the names and passwords from servers of the National Agricultural Union and a national newspaper, threatening to release sensitive data if the hunt proceeds. A campaign is meanwhile growing in the US to persuade the winner of the auction not to kill the rhino. It was reported by animal rights group, One More Generation, that the permit had been sold to a Texan, named Corey Knowlton of the Hunting Consortium for US$350,000. On his Facebook page Knowlton, who is
obviously a keen hunter, is pictured next to an array of rare dead animals, including a collared bear. Namibia auctions five licenses
to hunt black rhino every year. The hunting of species on the brink of extinction is a highly emotive issue and the whole notion of 'killing to save' has come under the spotlight as protestors, including young children gathered in Dallas on Saturday to protest the hunting of the endangered black rhino. Although the hunting fraternity insists that the money raised can be used for conservation, opponents insist that the funds could be donated without having to kill the
rhino. Hunting and trading in rare species, including the sale of exotic animals and parts of endangered animal species, is a lucrative business, but has its darker side; the illegal trade is worth billions of dollars and has fuelled an escalation in rhino poaching, particularly in neighbouring South Africa, where more than 688 rhino killings were recorded in 2013, up from 618 in 2012. Trophy hunters were also implicated in the killing of collared lions in the Dorob,
Naukluft and Etosha parks over the past few years and this has also sparked further outrage among conservationists. Several very rare and highly endangered male desert lion have been shot, despite the fact that they were collared, putting at risk the very survival of the pride. Jeff Flocken of International Fund for A n i m a l We l f a r e argues that “…the idea of creating a bidding war for the opportunity to gun down one of the last of a species osten-sibly in the name of conservation is perverse and dangerous to buy into. It promotes the economic axiom that scarcity equals value when dealing with living species. If an animal like the rare black rhinoceros is worth the most with a price on its head, what possible incentive does this provide range countries and local people to move the species toward recovery when the biggest buck can be made short-term by selling permits to kill them to the highest bidders? We've seen this perverse economic incentive happen with polar bears and tigers, where perceived rarity has caused “collectors” to rush out and try to kill or own the last pieces of these animals, and the price for their parts have sky-rocketed, thereby making extinction that much more likely.” The rhino population has fallen from around 70,000 in the 1960's to around 5,000 today. Some 1800 of these are found in Namibia . Faced with questions from all sides and threats of further cyber attacks, Deputy Minister of Environment and Tourism, Pohamba Shifeta said last week that the government had no plans to call off the auction as it would generate a lot of money for conservation. Ms Marcia Fargnoli, CEO of the Save the Rhino Trust, told the Namib Times that they have a good working relationship with the Ministry of Tourism and Namibia and have made strides in restoring the rhino population, but from their standpoint “every rhino counts” and their job is to protect all the rhinos. “Quote The idea of creating a bidding war for the opportunity to gun Down one of the last of a species ostensibly in the name of conservation is perverse and dangerous to buy into.” ~ Jeff Flocken of International Fund for Animal Welfare

Concern about future of Vessel Tuesday 21 January 1975, page 1 The 850 ton Chinese freighter UNITED TRADER with a cargo of some 700 tons of dynamite and detonators aboard aground at Easter Cliffs, some 100 kilometers north of Lüderitz, was described this week as a “potential bomb.” The vessel, shown in our picture above hard aground on a rocky reef along an inaccessible part of Sperrgebiet No. 2, was on her way from Europe to Bombay when she ran aground a few days before Christmas. The entire crew was taken off and brought safely to Lüderitz. The vessel was later declared a total constructive loss and it is understood that the insurance underwriters in Cape Town are now considering the fate of the vessel. In the meanwhile it is believed that the explosive cargo has become damp through cracks in the hull and this could result in it “blowing up” at anytime. Damp dynamite is known as unstable. There is also thought to be a pollution danger should the containers holding the explosives be rotted away by the sea and the chemicals pollute the surrounding water. The vessel is aground in a rich crayfish area. Fortunately from a view of human beings and property the vessel is aground on a uninhabited beach accessible only by helicopter. If the boat should explode it is not likely to do any damage to property at Luderitz but could affect bird life and be a danger to fishing and other vessels operating in the area. The authorities are preparing a report on the position and it is expected that a top-level decision will be taken shortly. The UNITED TRADER is aground in an area where three other vessels have come to grief in the past few years. These are: *The tanker ANDRON with a full load of crude oil went down further out to sea on the 8th May 1968. *The fishing vessel KARIN sunk in the area on the 9th November 1970. *The Korean tunny trawler TONG WHA is aground about six kilometers north of the stranding of the UNITED TRADER. The Korean vessel went aground on the 17th April 1972 and is now breaking up under the pounding of the seas.

Three regional economic communities in Africa are expected to sign an agreement in 2014 to establish an enlarged market covering 26 countries in eastern and southern Africa. The “Grand” or Tripartite Free Trade Area (FTA) development and competitiveness.

Thereafter, COMESA-EAC-SADC are US$1 trillion covers half of the member states of the expected launch a single FTA by 2016, building on the African Union and is intended to boost intra- FTAs that are already in place. It will also resolve the regional trade, increase investment and promote the long-standing conundrum of overlapping development of cross-regional infrastructure. The membership, which has presented barriers for the target was set just five years ago by the Common three communities in their quest towards integration.

It starts with us... Morsjorse! Daar was onlongs op ‘n Saterdag by die Metodiste kerk (Nangolo Mbumba str) in Walvis 'n troue. Soos nuskierig nou maar doen, het ek die petalje so bietjie dogehou. Groot was my teleurstelling toe die manne wat die grand karre ry, sommer so in die publiek die J&B's oopmaak en eers die proppies sommer net daar gooi, en toe later die bottels ook. So dis nou ok om in die openbaar te drink? Rerig? nee sies man, julle opvoeding het duidelik 'n tekort en dis nie A lot of people are probably wondering what this picture means...Well today I decided to go clean my grandparents’ graves after a very long time since I no longer reside in Walvis Bay. As I enter the yards a big cloud of shame fell over me for I was greeted by broken tombstones, filth here and there, rusted beer cans and broken bottles, but what broke my heart was the graves of the stillborn babies which was covered in unwanted grass that's even taller then me. As I stood there I looked at myself neatly dressed and well presented and thought this is the final resting place of our families and friends. We mourned for them and at times still do but we forget to go clean their resting place. Would I want to sleep in a bed which was not made for a week that looks like filth? No. Now why do we do this to them. This was really heart breaking. They say gone but not forgotten, I disagree this place said gone and forgotten loud and clear... I just wanted to ask the Youth and Young ladies and gents lets show our elders we still have a lil good in us, if you have bricks in your yards or paint you don't use in your garages or even just a few hours to spare lets set up a date (Im will come down for it) and clean up these yards. Lets lead by example, if I could I would've cleaned that yard myself. We should be ashamed of yourself. We want them to rest in peace but look at this place, no man. These pics were taken at the old Narraville cemetery. Lets clean up this mess, I beg you.
Water is life! I would like to make the following statement: NamWater Swakopmund has no consideration for the people who depend on the pipe line that feeds water to Arandis and Rossing. On Friday 10 January 2014 at 10:00 with no notice whatsoever the water supply suddenly stops flowing, as we pay our monthly usage to the Swakop Municipality I phoned them for an explanation, the answer was that NamWater had to do maintenance on the pipeline and there would be no water for most of the day, they were unfortunately only informed on Thursday at 18h00 that there would be no water on Friday and because they were told so late they inturn could not inform the residents of the small holdings along the Swakop river who do not have the option of a reservoir which could at least cover a period of time. It is now 22h00 on Friday night and still there is no water. If NamWater had only made the effort to inform those residents who are so acutely affected that planned maintenance was to be done on the pipe line residents could make arrangements for the period of stoppage. One has to ask the question who is in charge and do they know what they are doing. D B Smith a resident on the Swakop River plots. Dougie Smith

The State of Our Schools nodig om dit die hele wêreld te wys nie. As jy jou soos 'n vark wil gedra, doen dit by jou huis neh. Sigaret stompies kan in jou sak gedruk word tot terug by die huis geneem word. Ek was 15 jaar 'n roker en het nooit my stompies op straat gegooi nie!!!
Thousands of learners are preparing to head back to school next week, but many parents who believe that they are choosing the best school for their children are in for a rude awakening. Suzaan Wieland In countries like Japan, teachers and learners clean their own school grounds. At Namib High School parents and the School Board, as well as ex-pupils renovated the school buildings and garden. Teachers and learners helped with fundraising. It can be done!! Benjamin Bixby III And yet they have N$700 million to spend on a building that will house less then 100 people. #Priorities Joe Kondja Amushila This very serious. How do you expect learners to perform better under such environment? MoE should take up cleaning campaigns at schools and also render gardening services..Such environment also affects the psychological developments if the kids. Some research findings has it that "the more attractive the school environment the better the performance of learners and vice versa!!! Christo Smith Ek was ook daar op skool en in die koshuis van 1981 tot 1990 en al die koshuis kinders moes elke dinsdag self tuinwerk doen in groepe om die plek skoon te hou. Ons was baie trots op ons plek en dit het nooit so gelyk nie. Dalk moet die reel weer in kom sodat die kinders die tuine mooi maak en so hou, dit hou hul dalk uit die kwaad uit.... Joe Kondja Amushila From my own knowledge the ministry of education in itself never shows interest in the surrounding environments of schools. Not knowing the impact it has on learner's behaviour and performance. If you look at schools with neat school yard. Its only those that were established long back before independence and much worse those gardens that suppose to make schools attractive have never been maintained.. Raymondt Vlam Vilander Shamefull! Tammy-Ann Kleinsmith Mouton Carballo What a shame, my old school...no excuse 4rom MOE or SSS...2nd Suzaan Valencia Dixon And learners and parents are involved here?? Shameful really! We use to raise big amounts of money for this school with our festivals and other fundraising events. Our parents were involved, we kept it clean!
Die manne vernietig ons visbron Graag wil ek verneem of julle ‘n anonieme briefie kan plaas. Dit is rakende die manne wat, sodra die kabbeljoue op Paaltjies dik loop, 80 tot 90 visse per bakkie daar wegry. Ek is self ‘n visserman, ek weet nie wat hulle met al die vis maak nie. Maar dink dit is verregaande. Hulle gaan die manne wees wat die meeste gaan huil as hulle Paaltjies toemaak. Kan die bokkiewagters nie net by Lovershill staan en dit kontroleer nie. Hulle hoef nie eers op die strand te ry nie. Hulle is besig om die visbron te verkrag. Dan wonder almal altyd na die tyd hoekom ons nie meer mag gaan visvang op Paalties.
Reader wants to know No more Hiv Aids counselling at Walvis Bay clinic, what they asking only how old are? What is your mother name? Why are you here today? Really. I was shocked that day. If anybody go the for test and you don’t know your status already really you will collapse. Sylvanus Ester
Izél Miryam van Ellewee Yes, it is horrendous! But the schools can't do much about it since the state took away all school fees!! Even if the teachers and students clean the school themselves, with what will they buy the cleaning products, protective gear and remove the rubbish??? Christina Rockstroh It's a blatant shame. Kwik Kerb Walvis Bay Ja it is a shame to see things like this , who is really to blame. It is easy to point to government , not that the government are ok ! I mean 30 years back when I was a student our schools and hostels we were proud of it. We work in the garden and clean buildings. But know is that problem " human rights " . Every one need and want but who will do """ Robert Heuschneider Its a shame !!! Poor Namibia. Carlo Gawaseb Das Neves dis vreeslik ...!! ths how the results look seems to me ...!!!no discipline ..!!
Walvis Bay water woes It is alleged that affluent members in the lagoon area and Nangolo Mbumba Avenue in Walvis Bay are using municipal water illegally for gardening purposes. Carl David Marx Can you blame the people??? I'm not saying it's the right thing to do, but if you look at the water pressure, what else can you do? When the rest of the country gets rain, Walvis Bay loses its water and the water pressure. Maybe it's time for Namwater and the Municipality to pull their fingers out of some places and start looking after the community and their water needs, or are we turning into South Africa? We pay more than enough for our accounts to get all this sorted out.
Denise Van Bergen There are also a number of residents who have special connections for purified water, which is metered and paid for by the residents.

Kids with Cancer During the month of December last year alone, 34 kiddies with cancer spent time in 8West cancer ward in the state hospital in Windhoek. Every month CHICA (Children with cancer in Namibia) takes these kids on outings like going to a lodge, go carting and other fun activities.
“Getting the children out of the hospital and into the fresh air really makes them happy and it's great to see them smiling again, added Leandra Grobler who is a part of the cancer association of Namibia as well as a board member of CHICA. She continued saying, “It is so important to educate our children about cancer and to explain to them in ways that they can understand what cancer is all about.”
Why seek counselling?
To the children: Always remember that cancer is not your fault. Sometimes people get sick for no reason at all, it is not something that you did. Cancer is also not contagious, which means you can't catch it from another person. Why does cancer happen? Cancer happens when a normal cell grows and divides too fast. You can only see cells with a microscope.
You can think of cancer in this way. If you fall off
your bike and scrape your knee, your skin cells kick into gear and start growing to heal your scrape. When the scrape is all gone, the skin cells know they did their job. This is when they stop growing. Cancer cells don't know when to stop growing. But luckily we have smart doctors who have found many different ways to help the cells stop growing. One of these ways is called radiation. Radiation beams special energy into the cells that are growing too fast, and this then helps them to stop their growth. Another way of helping your cells to stop growing too fast is called chemotherapy. Chemotherapy delivers special medicine into the cancer cells to stop them from growing. The other option that we have to help us is surgery. Surgery is done by cutting out the bad cancer cells and remove them from the body to stop them from growing too fast and out of control. There are so many different ways of helping you become better. You should also remember that one of the best things you can do is to smile as much as you can and to think happy thoughts. When you laugh and smile your body releases good medicine
Reaching out to Animals in Need For many of us, the festive season means going away and enjoying a change of pace as we spend time with loved ones. Unfortunately, this is also a time where the needs of our animals are often overlooked. Shipping company Elgin Brown & Hamer (EBH) Namibia decided to step into the breach by making a sizeable donation to the Walvis Bay SPCA's Santa Paws 2013 project in the form of pet food, pet supplies and funds. “At EBH Nami-bia an important part of our ethos is to provide support to the surrounding community and identifying where the needs lie. Animals are often overlooked in this regard, especially over the festive season, and so we decided to get involved,” explained Hannes Uys, Chief Executive Officer of EBH Namibia. A highly-rated international ship repair company and part of the DCD Group, EBH Namibia has involved itself in several projects based on the needs of the Walvis Bay community, as part of its corporate social investment (CSI) drive. The company views a genuine commitment to social responsibility as key to its own sustainability,
as well as to the broader environment. “Taking responsibility for the sustainability of the environment in which we operate is a big part of who we are. Job creation for local citizens is high on our agenda, and regular charity drives will help to create a stable and prosperous community.
Our community includes our four-legged friends, many of whom are abandoned over the Christmas period,” said Uys. “In these tough economic times, many non-profit organisations struggle to stay afloat. The Walvis Bay SPCA relies entirely on donations from caring individuals, community-
minded businesses and grants from charitable foundations. We were delighted to be able to help this Christmas.” The company's mandate of giving back to the community is taken to heart by its staff members, as evidenced by the enthusiasm given to the Santa Paws project.

Die bekende afrikaanse skrywer Irma Joubert het onlangs haar boek Tolbos publiseer - na Ver wink die Suiderkruis en Tussen Stasies is dit die derde boek in hierdie trilogie. Die gebeure vanaf Junie 1976 tot die einde van 1989, met die val van apartheid in SuidAfrika en die val van kommunisme in Pole, vorm die politieke agtergrond van hierdie roman. Bekende aspekte uit die tagtigerjare gee verdere geur aan die verhaal: verpligte diensplig; die noodtoestand en mediasensuur; die Vrye We e k b l a d , A f r i kanerjongmense se opstand teen die gesag van die Nasionale Party, die Broederbond, die kerk; die literatuur van daardie jare. Die skrywer self sal haar nuutste publikasie op die 18de Janurie 2014, 18:00 in die S WA K O P MUNDER BUCHHANDLUNG bekendstel. Die publiek word hartlik uitgenooi om die bekendstelling by te woon.

mense. Sy fokus op verhoudings in die gesin, tussen familielede, vriende, vreemdes, die mens in sy verhouding met die gemeenskap, die natuur, die tyd waarin hy leef. En natuurlik die liefde, veral die liefde. Keer op keer is daar 'n kinkel in die kabel, los drade wat op nuwe maniere saamgevleg word om te sorg vir 'n verrassende oplossing van skynbaar onoorkombare probleme. Sy skryf met empatie omdat haar karakters mense is wat sy ken. Sy skryf oor emosies sonder om sentimenteel te raak, sy gebruik 'n lewendige dialoog en unieke beskrywings. Sy speel ligvoets met
die taal sodat 'n mens 'n stuk soms weer 'n keer lees, net omdat dit so lekker klink. En aan die einde van 'n hoofstuk is telkens 'n enkele sin of twee wat jou boei sodat jy die volgende hoofstuk móét lees, totdat jy uiteindelik deurnag sit. Irma was vyf en dertig jaar in die onderwys en het begin skryf nadat sy afgetree het. Sy skryf omdat sy 'n passie vir stories het. Solank die mens nog die aarde bewoon, kan stories nooit opraak nie, glo sy. In 2005 is sy aangewys as Media 24 se spesialis-joernalis van die jaar. Sy was ook 'n finalis vir 'n Mondi-toekenning vir tydskrif joernalistiek. Sy is getroud met Jan, wat ná sewe en dertig jaar steeds glo sy is pragtig. Hulle woon in Bloemfontein en het drie seuns, 'n skoondogter, 'n pleegdogter en 'n kleinkind.

Lomwe hits the screen Paulina Moses
Malawi's good looking Big Brother Amplified contestant, Lomwe Namali, recently added acting to his bright resume, by appearing on one of South Africa's most watched soapies, Rhythm City. The lad played the role of Bongani, a young marketing Chief Executive Officer, “I played the role of Bongani who is the youngest marketing CEO in Joburg.” Lomwe auditioned for the role through his agency and says that because the scene was short, he was able to pull it off effortlessly, “I didn't have too much trouble getting into character as it was short scene and I had done some preparation for it.” Asked how he prepared for the role, Lomwe responded, “I prepared for the role by getting advice from other people in the industry and watching how other actors handled similar roles, then I did a lot of rehearsing and getting into character with the script.” Being on the set of Rhythm was idyllic for Lomwe and he says that the
WALVIS BAY
Rhythm City team was welcoming, “I could say I enjoyed everyone's company, they were all friendly and fun to be around, it was a very relaxed atmosphere.” Of course I had to ask who his favorite character on Rhythm City is, and he immediately pointed to the notorious David Ginaro, “I used to watch different soapies every now and then when I lived with family because the ladies of the house loved them, I would say David Ginaro is my favourite Rhythm city character.” Any celebrity crushes while on set? “Lol, no there weren't any celebrity crushes on set and I didn't get to meet the whole cast either.” Lomwe said he will not limit himself and is willing to do a bit of everything, hence also pursuing a fulltime acting career, “I

“I prepared for the role by getting advice SWAKOPMUND from other people in the industry and watching how other actors handled similar roles then I did a lot of rehearsing and getting into character with the script.” wouldn't mind doing a bit of everything, I don't believe in limiting yourself to one thing.” Almost two years ago, Lomwe released his first studio album titled Double Wowza, which featured award-winning rapper, Zeus. He has not released any new material since but promises his fans that new sounds are on the way, “I just recently started recording again and will be releasing some new music soon.” His thoughts on the previous Big Brother Africa show? “I thought it was a nice show, people found a lot of new ways to keep Africa entertained. My favorite housemate was Natasha and not just because she's from Malawi, lol, she was herself and never tried to be something she's not, she also was very humorous in her own way.” Lomwe is now based in South Africa, “I have settled down, SA is where I am permanently going to be based.”

PUBLIC NOTICE Bannerman Mining Resources Ltd wishes to erect and operate a crib leach pilot facility on EPL 3345 during 2014 which will enable the Company to conduct larger scale test work to finalise the metallurgical parameters for the detailed design phase of the Etango Uranium Project. In terms of the Namibian Environmental Management Act (No.7 of 2007) and associated Regulations (2012), an Environmental Clearance Certificate is required for which an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) and Environmental Management Plan (EMP) must be submitted to the Ministry of Environment and Tourism (MET).
CONSENT APPLICATION IN TERMS OF WALVIS BAY TOWN PLANNING SCHEME CONSENT: Home Based Businessn (Printing Shop) ON ERF NO: 4070 / 112 TOWNSHIP: Walvis Bay STREET: James Brown. In terms of the above-mentioned Scheme, notice is hereby given that I/we, the undersigned, have applied to the Walvis Bay Municipality for permission to erect/establish a Printing Shop on the site. Plans may be inspected or particulars of this application may be obtained at Town Planning First Floor, Rooms 101 & 106 D, Civic Centre. Any person having any objection to the approval of this application, must lodge such objection, together with grounds thereof, with the General Manager: Roads and Building Control, (Town Planning), Private Bag 5017, Walvis Bay, and the undersigned, in writing, not later than 28 January 2014. NAME AND ADDRESS APPLICANT(S): Ngalagombe Intervina P.O. Box 4246, Walvis Bay.
The old Aquitaine exploration drilling site has been chosen as the pilot plant site as: • the area was disturbed by historical exploration activities conducted in the 1970s, • it is close to where the ore is surfacing so there is minimal rock removal, it is accessible via existing roadways, and • it will not be visible from existing tourist routes. The facility will consist of four cribs, each 2m x2m in cross-section and 7 metres high capable of holding ~ 45t of agglomerated feed ore. The outcropping ore material will be blasted, mined and crushed within a 2 months period before the pilot activities begin, and only during daylight. There will be two emergency/research personnel on night duty either on site or based at a to-be-agreed residence nearby. It is expected that the Pilot Plant will operate for at least 2 years. The public and affected parties are invited to send comments and attend the Public Open Day there will be no formal presentation but several Bannerman personnel and ASEC environmental specialists will be there to explain and answer questions. Swakopmund Public Open Day on Thursday 16th January between 15h30 – 18h00 at the Uranium Institute, 667 Tamariskia Cottage Avenue, Swakopmund.

Walvis Bay Golf Club News
Social League soccer on the move
The first official competition of the year took place last Saturday. Although a club sponsored event we still had 41 players. Herman opted for a nice hidden partner stableford and by the looks of faces after the game it seemed that all enjoyed the format and the excitement of who their respective partners will be. The weather played along well and once again it showed that if we have hardly no wind, the scores are not that good. Only one player reached 40 points and seven more got 36 points or better. Many scores was in the high 20's and a substantial lot in the lower 20's. Maybe a bit of proof that we like to play in the wind. According to Pierre Marais, the wind did not bother him at all. His first official competition at the club and hopefully not the last. Pierre, at least you won something with that 15 points, many other did not win anything. Practice Boet! 1st place was Oom Fransie Grobler and Anton van Rensburg on 74 points. 2nd Andre Burger and Paul Sham on 73 points. 3rd Desmond Benson and Amandio Sardinha on 73 points. Wooden spoon Pierre Marais and Gordon Damster on 48 points. Thanks to Nico Poggenpoel and Marthinus Marais that also played. Hope to see more of the juniors playing in future. Tuesday Sponsors Evening: Tomorrow we host all our sponsors at the club. We want to finalize the calendar for the year in order for you to do your planning. If I have it correct the Race to Cape Town is back in full swing this year. The administrative issue was solved and we will have somebody to keep score again. Remember, the medals will give you extra points. Saturday is the Namsov Fishing Walvis Bay Open. 36 holes medal for all divisions. Entries close Wednesday at 18:00. The field might be limited, but if your name is not in, you cannot be considered. The Quizmaster has something on for the next 4 Fridays. Once his obligations are over we will have the quiz. Sorry guys. Gert Olivier JNR became father last night. 3.12kg & 52 cm long baby girl. Congratulations to you and your wife with this wonderful moment in your lives.

· Marshallino Beukes The “Sunday Social Football League” in Mondesa, Swakopmund, began with some preseason games this weekend.
THE CHAMP: Danny Boy with the president of the IBF Africa & Mid East, Onesmo Ngowi
Danny Boy Ready Celebrated IBF World Youth champion, Albinus "Albinos" Felesianu is ready to defend his IBF World Youth Jr. Lightweight Title he won in 2013. Albinos will defend his “IBF World Youth Jr. L i g h t w e i g h t Ti t l e ” against the Flamboyant Georgian Anzor Gamgebeli in Luanda, Angola under the auspices of “Olavo Gamboa Boxing Promotion” owned and managed by Olavo Gamboa and incorporated in Angola. The fight will be take place in Angola in February 2014. Anzor Gamgebeli made his pro debut in 2010 against his countryman Levan Garibashvili and advanced
rapidly by beating quite credible opponents on his way up. His last outing was in November 12, 2013 against Tornike To r t l a d z e a f e l l o w Georgian at the Kandelaki Sports Hall, Tbilisi, Georgia. The young man whom everyone in Namibia knows as “Danny Boy” or simply “Danny Boy Albino,” is a man of few words. His actions in the ring however leave his opponents on guard all the time against his arsenals of hard and raining punches. The “IBF Youth Jr. Lightweight Youth” champion of the world originally hails from north of Angola and found his calling in life when he joined amateur boxing in Namibia to develop his skills under the able boxing trainers of Kinda Boxing Promotions. Danny Boy Albino
became one of the many boxers who joined Namibian boxing fraternity to help it realize its goal of creating a more equitable and prosperous boxing industry in South West African region. He joined pro ranks boxing and had his first professional debut against Matheus Niitembu in March 2007. After that, he taught a lesson or two to Joseph Katenda before meeting Matheus Niitembu again five months later and again came up winning! He became the first Namibian based Angolan “IBF Youth Jr. Lightweight Champion” of the world in a long and fiercest duel against Ghanian strong young man Herbert Quartey In June 2013. That bout signified the epic of Albinus boxing careers and put his critics to shame.

According to some of the guys Namib Times spoke to, the league was started about one year ago, with the main aim to promote sport and to keep men busy in a positive and uplifting way. Young and old are participating in this league, which is not registered under the National football body, but however shows no lack of raw talent. Every Sunday the teams get together, doing what they love at the Mondesa ground pitch. The fact that it is a gravel pitch and the absence of nets for the goal posts, does not seem to brake the spirit of sportsmanship and camaraderie which can be sensed among these soccer lovers. Assistance in any form, might it be equipment like balls, whistles, or any other sport equipment will be highly appreciated. Sunday's games saw Nampol got beaten 2-0 by Deportivo and Old Crocks managed to overcome Durban City, beating them 2-1. Around 17 teams are currently affiliated at the League and it will officially kick off during February.
Rossmund Golf Club News Hello from Rossmund. What beautiful sunny weather we have and a happy new year to all. May 2014 bring you lots of fantastic golf, good health and most of all a great year. The course was very busy over the festive season with lots of golfers taking up the special offer on green fees - lots of South Africans around to - so all in all a good season. But now we have to get back to normal - I know some of you have started work again already for those of you who were away from Swakop I have a few results on hand. 27 December: The Eddy Ferger Golf Competition (also known to many as the German Open) was played for the 24th year - having started in 1989 with a field of 25 players it has grown to an astounding 57. There were some good scores carded but lots of players took part just for the fun and refreshments. The Winner and defending champion was Erich Weiss with 43pts (Bill check that handicap) followed by Michael Sickel on 40pts and Vincent van Biljon on 38pts. Thanks to all the sponsors and to all the players for making this competition what it is. 28/29 December: 104 players took to the course in the well loved Desert Classic played over two days "Betterball Scramble Drive" - the club house was abuzz with locals and visitors alike. What a great two days of golf - the winners coming in with a hotly contested 92pts H Noabeb/B Haraseb; 2nd: Father & Son A & R Esterhuizen 90pts and in 3rd: H van Vuuren/B van Taak 89pts. A big thanks to FNB and Nashua for their continuous sponsorship of this event and for promising to be there again in December. Just to get one back in the swing of things a club sponsored Betterball was played on Saturday - with a field of 26 players - the winners were J Flook (hope this is a new year's resolution for 2014 - play more golf)/W Buck 47pts; J van der Merwe/C Lawrence 45pts; G Louw/W Theron 41pts - once again the scores were close. This coming Saturday will be an Individual Stableford Competition sponsored by P J Malherbe:G van der Merwe - so now is the time to get back into the game. 19 January will be the first Sages competition of the year - Annual Subs of N$70 are due. We will start next week with our Wednesday Competitions - still some vouchers up for grabs compliments of Atlantic Villa/Dolphin Pharmacy. February's sponsor will be Prestige Accounting. In an effort to make the 9 hole competition more challenging we have come up with a new format i.e. all those playing 18 holes will be entered into the 9 hole competition as well. So please join in!!!! I see there are a few Matchplay games still to be completed please get them finished asap. Time to start a new year. NAGU Fees are due and payable N$275. We apologise for the downtime of the Handicap Screen but hope to have it up and running shortly - the new terminal got lost in some or other courier's storeroom for the season. Lady golfers please take note that the entry list is out for the postponed Coastal Open sponsored by Hollard Insurance to be played on 1/2 February.
