Huge developments are on the cards for the Erongo region during this financial year. After the recent tabling of the N$66 billion budget, Finance Minister Calle Schlettwein last week met with the coastal business community to discuss details, answer questions and also announce what projects Government has earmarked for the fiscal year.

“Government has not lost sight of its policy priorities, in spite of the pressure on the growth of the overall budget,” Schlettwein said, when he met the Swakopmund business community on Friday morning. The event was organised by the local branch of the Chamber of the Namiba Chamber of Commerce and Industry (NCCI).

About 60 business people attended the event.

It came as little surprise that Schlettwein announced major developments in the infrastructure of transport, water, electricity, housing and the ICT sector. “This is crucial to enable economic growth,” he said. This forms part of the plan to make Namibia a major logistic hub and facilitate trade with neighbouring countries. “The rail infrastructure will be a vital part of the logistics sector; therefore the railway network upgrade for 16/17 was allocated N$330 million. This includes the construction of the Tsumeb-Kranzberg railway

line, which is due to begin in this financial year and “will better link the Coast to the Central and Northern regions.” The total amount earmarked for the railway sector during the Medium Term Expenditure Framework (MTEF) amounts to N$2.6 billion.

Many road users will be pleased to hear that government will start on major road upgrade projects during this financial year. Soon the construction of the Swakop-Henties BayKamanjab road to tarmac standard will begin, which will cost government N$154 million during this financial year. “This is the shortest route from the Oshikango border post to the harbour at Walvis Bay and will ease the load on the B2,” Schlettwein said. He also announced the widening of the Karibib-Swakopmund road to 2+1 cross-section, to “improve safety, efficiency of road-based logistics”. This 177 kilometre stretch will cost government N$107 million over Continues on page 2

Up to now a total of N$440 000 was collected after Chris Smith (80) completed his fundraising initiative to heighten awareness of Crohn's and ulcerative colitis after he walked 360 km from Windhoek to Swakopmund from 1-13 March.

Chris said he intended to walk for 30 days but to his surprise the journey became more adventurous and fun and he walked at a faster pace than anticipated. Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a term mainly used to describe the ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn’s disease. Both UC and Crohn’s are chronic conditions that involve inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. UC only affects the large Continues on page 2

As part of transforming Namibia into a logistics hub, NamPort will receive N$52.5 million during this financial year for important projects such as the container terminal in Walvis Bay. Furthermore, the air transport infrastructure at the coast will be revamped. “The upgrading of the infrastructure at the Walvis Bay airport is allocated at N$56 million, which will improve the runway and facilitate fresh fish exports and tourism,” Schlettwein said. The air traffic control towers in both Walvis Bay and Swakopmund will also be upgraded.

Crohn’s Continued from page 1

intestine crohn's can affect all of the digestive system, from the mouth to the anus.

According to Chris his wife required 24 hour care and he was privileged to be able to afford a day nurse and care-giver but he realised then that many people are not so blessed and the cost of medication is a burden. Chris said he has always been an avid sportsman and particularly enjoyed walking so he was inspired to undertake the long walk to raise awareness and funds to help those less

fortunate who cannot afford quality care.

The funds raised will be donated to the Stomatherapy Unit of the Cancer Association of Namibia (CAN), who provides care and support to Namibians living with colostomies and ileostomies. According to Chris, the journey was like holiday. A group of people from Swakopmund drove 18 km from Swakopmund to go and support Chris and walk with him up to Swakopmund on Sunday in the early morning hours.

The workers who are renovating the State House in Swakopmund claims that they have been working without protective clothing and helmets since the beginning of the operation, they say the overalls that they received a couple of years ago are not in good condition and are very old and torn. The workers have been painting and some are doing bricklaying at the State House but never have they received protective gear. They do not have dust masks, helmets, proper clothing or gloves. On Monday morning the workers arrived at the State House with the intention of letting their voice be heard but unfortunately the Namibian Police was called to intervene and to stop them from doing so. According to the group, the officials at the State House told them to put their posters away because the President, Dr Hage Geigob was in the house and also told them that they did not write a formal letter to the authority to let the authority know of their whereabouts. The workers of New Era Investments are represented by Namibia Building Workers Union (NABWU). According to the Secretary General of NABWU, Victor Hamunyela the safety of employees at New Era Construction site is at risk and that is why the employees have decided that until effective measures have been taken to improve their safety at work, it is neither safe nor healthy to continue working in such an environment. NABWU requested overalls with reflectors on arms and legs, safety helmets for each employee, eye protectors on all sites, heavyweight coated gloves, googles where necessary, ear muffs for workers who work with noisy equipment which could affect their hearing, shoes, dust filters and many other necessary gear. Hamunyela wrote a letter to the management of New Era Investments to inform them about the demonstration which was going to take place yesterday. One of the employee who claims that he has been working for New Era Investments for close to six years now also said that in all the years he has been working there, he was never paid for the overtime he works and sometimes they work on weekends and public holidays. The workers also confessed that their salary is not even close to the minimum wage as per government gazette. A women who identified herself as Theresia, a NABWU spokesperson for the group said they did not know that the President was going to be at the State House and feels that what Nampol did was not good and they should not have asked them to put their posters down because the posters were not made for the President but for New Era Investments. Theresia said the workers will only go back to work until Hamunyela tell them what the way forward is as they are having negotiation meetings with the New Era Investments managing team. During a telephonic interview with namib times, Hamunyela confessed that he was in a meeting with the managing team of New Era Investments and they have come up with a memorandum of agreement. They have agreed that New Era Investments will distribute the available union to one site only as they are only enough for one site and the rest of the employees at the other sites will have to wait for their needs. Hamunyela also confirmed that there is a pending case against New Era Investments at the labour office because they do not pay the employees the minimum wage. was the open area in front of the Strand Hotel, where he was given a metal by the Mayor of Swakopmund Mrs Pauline Nashilundo and a towel by the Junior Mayor, Tanya Knuffel.

Accident at the Sam Nujoma/Hendrik Witbooi intersection in Swakopmund Numerous accidents were reported in and around Walvis Bay since Friday. Saturday night in 11th Road Walvis Bay a vehicle drove into a wall. One occupant sustained serious injuries and after he was stabilised at the scene, he was transported to hospital by the St Gabriel Community Ambulance Service for further treatment.

Due to the nature of his injuries it was decided to transfer the patient to the Katatura State Hospital for specialist intervention.

On Friday on the B2 route ±25 km outside Swakopmund towards Arandis another accident occurred involving three vehicles. A sedan, a bakkie with trailer and a mini-bus was apparently in a head-on collision. The person in the sedan vehicle sustained multiple injuries while all the others involved sustained minor injuries only. Numerous emergency services within the region responded to the scene to attend to the injured.

On Saturday a taxi drove into a wall at the Sam Nujoma/Hendrik Witbooi intersection in Swakopmund. Another accident was reported on Saturday evening where a head-on collision was reported in Daniel Kamho Drive (Henties Bay road between the Vineta and Oceanview circle) in Swakopmund in the early hours of the morning.

Apparently the one driver left the scene in the company of traffic officers.

Accident on the Swakopmund Arandis road

Namibian drivers need a change in attitude Namibian drivers should be taught how to assist victims of road accidents, the Secretary-General of the Namibian Red Cross Society, Dorkas Kapembe-Haiduwa says.

She said this at the mass memorial service for 15 people killed in an accident between a truck and a minibus in the Oshikoto Region on 12 February. The memorial service was held at the site of the accident near Casablanca, where the head-on collision took place on the OmuthiyaOshivelo main road. KapembeHaiduwa described accidents in Namibia as a “nightmare”. She said drivers should receive first aid training and be provided with first aid kits and fire extinguishers for them to be able to effectively respond to road accidents.

The two vehicles burst into flames upon impact, leaving 15 people dead on the spot. Kapembe-Haiduwa also said drivers must change their driving attitude if road crashes are to be

reduced in the country. Also addressing the memorial service, the Inspector-General of the Namibian Police Force (NamPol), LieutenantGeneral Sebastian Ndeitunga echoed Kapembe-Haiduwa's sentiments, saying drivers need to change their attitude.“You can have good laws, good roads and speed bumps on the road everywhere, but without attitude change the road accident rate will re-main high,” Ndeitunga said, adding that negligent drivers are to blame for the increasing number of accidents on Namibian roads. He also said the DNA tests on the remains of the deceased have been completed and their families can thus now lay their loved ones to rest. (NAMPA)

New regulations could open EU for Namibian produced oysters

Oyster producers can greatly benefit from the Namibian Molluscs Shellfish Sanitation, Monitoring and Control Regulations the Ministry of Fisheries and Marine Resources is in an advanced stage of developing, the Minister of Fisheries and Marine Resources Bernhardt Esau said in Walvis Bay recently.

The Regulations will set guidelines to ensure food safety during the production stages, harvesting and handling of molluscan shellfish. The Gazetting and implementation of these Regulations, according to the Minister, will lead to better world market access for Namibian aquaculture products, of which the Walvis Bay oyster is currently the flagship product.

That includes access to European Union markets, which remain closed for Namibian aquaculture products.

Walvis Bay man stabbed to death in a taxi A 38-year-old man of Walvis Bay lost his life on Wednesday morning when he was allegedly stabbed with a sharp object while sitting in a taxi. He died in the vehicle.

Detective Chief Inspector Erastus Iikuyu of the Namibian Police Force (NamPol) in Walvis Bay identified the deceased as Joseph Ndeyapo Hekandjo. The next of kin of the deceased were informed. He was stabbed once in the chest while sitting in the passenger seat.

It is with an increasing sense of disappointment that I notice once more how insensitive and straightforwardly childish some people can become on social media.

Your namib times facebook account is no exception where, despite a notice to that effect in your newspaper, facebook users continue to make sarcastic and very insensitive remarks regarding articles.

I have noticed the swearing and racist remarks have gone away since the notice, but I cannot help to take pity on some facebook posts of users who still can only resort to negative and sarcastic remarks. I cannot help further to view these posts as coming from “has beens,” as I know some of these people who had their opportunity to life, but missed it. They now seem to want to present themselves as always the ones knowing better.

Please Namibians, let us all keep our fingers in restraint not to make derogatory remarks on facebook, twitter and all the other social media platforms we as a nation use on a daily basis. The rule does not really differ from the wisdom of “putting a guard in front of your mouth.”

To make derogatory remarks on a business or a person's facebook page is the same as tarnishing that business or person's name in public. You can get yourself in a whole lot of trouble I suppose?

Editor: thank you for this letter. It is true that some remarks are really very negative and unnecessary. The newspaper's focus however, remains on our vast readership that supports us. We also stay focused on the continues growth of our newspaper and our institution to stay steadfast to our motto: Serving The Coastal Community Since 1958 Keep well.

Buoys wash ashore at Swakopmund Two big buoys connected by a long, large rope washed ashore on the beach south of the Mole in Swakopmund this week. By yesterday the two large, yellow plastic structures were still scattered on the beach close to where the halfpipe used to be. They are marked with “badinotti group 1910 2010.” The badinotti group is an Italian company that specialises in nets, aquaculture equipment as well as customized boats amongst others. Where the two buoys originated from is unknown.

Jan Brand: The owner is on its way to pick them up.

Ndilokelwa Fennie Phillipus: They can be underwater stilling our fish.... pls investgate well.

Om Jana G-k: It could most probably be from oyster lines at Patrys..

Bernice Grobler: Gelukkig spoel baie uit.

As the Commander-in-Chief of the Namibian Defence Force, President Geingob had the opportunity to inspect the naval facilities at Walvis Bay and visit Namibia's naval vessel, Elephant.

Members of the Namibian Marines conducted a demonstration that required the landing of Special Forces personnel by rapid insertion and extraction craft onto land, where these members then staged a hostage rescue operation with blank ammunition, smoke marker grenades and thunder tubes.

A parade gave the President the opportunity to witness first-hand the high level of discipline and pride with which the Namibian Navy carries out its task as the custodian of Namibia's ocean and inland waterways.

During a keynote address Dr Geingob declared the Namibian Defense Force is ready more than ever to carry out its duty to protect Namibia's constitutional integrity as well as its international sovereignty.

Pictures taken by namib times' editorial staff members Liesl Losper and Sanita Olivier bring you last Thursday's events in picture.

Busy Brains, come out and play Liesl Losper Busy Brains is a playgroup where babies/toddlers and moms/guardians attend the sessions together. The play area is set up according to the Busy Brains school readiness programme; these activities are aimed to equip the child with a solid foundation up to the age of three years.

Once the child enters a pre-school at the age of 3 years, she/he has been exposed to the necessary skills which will help them cope with the activities at pre-school level. They started with a small group of children in April 2013 in Windhoek. In 2014 they had a waiting list and saw it fit to open another branch in Windhoek. Liezl Moller is the Founder of Busy brains. “We started out due to the high demand of toddlers who stay at home during the day, either with a parent or with a nanny. We realised the importance of providing the child with stimulating and messy activities; we decided to come together in one place to create the mess. Busy Brains strive to make use of playful activities to gradually build on the necessary skills every child needs to acquire to become School Ready. We try to make use of simple objects around the house to stimulate the children during these activities. A big part of Busy Brains is allowing the children to experience through free play and use this time to interact with other children. Caryne Hayward is the owner of the Walvis Bay Branch. She is a mom of two very energetic twins and I have 16 years of vulnerable children volunteering experience.” "My educational background was in public sector manage-ment, however I have always had a passion for early childhood development and learning. Observing and aiding in a child's exploration of their own abilities and their surrounding environment excites me and I feel fortunate to be a part of the process,” Caryne said.

A parent or guardian has to attend the sessions with the child, that way it is ensured that the child receives the necessary individual attention. “We call it our social

sessions - the child can attend the sessions anytime between 09:00 - 12:00. Currently, We only take children between the ages of 7 months and 3 years. We also have a Playgroup option at the Busy Brains Central branch, where a child older than 18 months can attend the sessions unaccompanied and for slightly longer hours,” Liezl added. All the branches follow exactly the same programme. With your Busy Brains card, you can also attend sessions at other branches when visiting another town.

Busy Brains also offer nanny/ caregiver training. There is a Saturday Workshop (3 hours) or a short course (3 months). They also have home programmes with activities for the children to do at home, as well as Busy Boxes with activities.

Triple crown, Jetty Mile winner Phillip Seidler excelling Triple crown Jetty Mile winner Phillip Seidler excelling in South Africa Open Water Swim. After winning the annual Pupkewitz Jetty Mile three times in a row Phillip Seidler, a 17-year-old local surfer and Namibian swimmer from Namib High School in Swakopmund, decided to take part in the aQuelle Midmar race – a five kilometer event outside Pietermaritzburg (South Africa) on 15 February.

Being the expert in the ocean it was his first time testing open water swimming in dam water. He was eager to compete in the 5km event, finishing second overall out of 29 participants, winning the silver medal after Danie Marais, who is one of the top South African open water swimmers.

Phillip had an excellent time of 1:03,15hrs, qualifying him for the South African National Open Water Championship. Being Namibia's best long distance swimmer in the pool, holding several Namibian records in 400m free, 800m free and 1500m free, he had to change his training for longer distances such as 5km, learning new rules, techniques and tactics for open water swimming. After a short time of successful training, determination and hard work, he participated in the SA National Aquatic Champs OWS, which took place in Grabouw (Cape) on the 6 March. Competing against the top 41 South African swimmers, Phillip finished his 5km race 7th overall and winning a silver medal in his age group boys 17-18yrs. He improved his time by almost 2 minutes to 1:01,17hrs.

This was a great and successful experience for Phillip. He is determined to work and train hard to compete in more international open water events. His biggest aim is to participate in 10km events – marathon swims, which are also Olympic qualifying events.

As can be seen there is a few interesting tussles coming up, to decide who will be lifting the cup for that respective groups. It's going to be good and to round it off with an awesome get together after the prize-giving on Friday night will be like the cherry on the top. See you all there.

Winners of the Mermaid Casino Betterball Stableford Competition (fltr) D Kock, Jo-Ann (Mermaid Casino), D Benson and L v/d Walt (RGC) Hi there from your favourite "home away from home" the Rossmund Golf Course. Our communication channels appear to be up and running again properly so here we go with some history and some news.

Wednesdays: 2 March - Advertising Displays - Gerhard Byleveld was in charge for a great day of golf. We had a good sized field with a few players from across the river.I think the well-deserved winners were delighted with the biltong & droë wors prizes - something to nibble along with the welcoming sundowner. Winners: Michael Ludeke hit the clubhouse with a very well played 40pts to win the 18 hole competition - it would appear that he learnt a few secrets there in the Cape. Second place was a bit more complicated with 5 players carding 36pts - the countout went in the end to one of our regular visitors Willie van Zyl. The 9 hole side was won by Bertie Saunderson with a well-played 21pts.

9 March saw Prestige Accounting/Fritz Coetzee in the chair with some great Spar Vouchers up for grabs. Once again the field was good and the weather just perfect for golf. Winners 18 holes: Athol McLean 39pts, Gary Knight 36pts. Nine holes: Manus Olivier 20pts over the front 9.

16 March sees the Pro Shop/Marco Swarts in action.

Saturdays: On 5 March the annual Langer Heinrich Golf Day took place - all our players were incorporated into the teams - a great day of golf was enjoyed by all the 120 players.

12 March saw a great field of 52 players out in full force to support one of our oldest sponsors, the Mermaid Hotel & Casino - this being their first tournament for 2016 - Betterball is definitely the players' favourite. With Mike McCann now being safely tucked away enjoying his pension, the Casino had a new team in charge: Pete, Jo-Ann and Bronwyn. The players were treated to a great day which included a fantastic halfway house and a mobile cool drink trolley driving up and down the fairways. Scores were close, there were 4 x 2-clubs Kevin Wentzel No.3; the favourite hole of the day being No.7 with Stefanus Bonifatius; Denis Haimbondi and Desmond Benson showing their metal.

Kus-spanne kry opdraande van Trustco United Fiksheid was Saterdag die grootste faktor wat daartoe gelei het dat die West Coast Sharks van Swakopmund met net twee punte teen Trustco United 2 in die reserwe-liga kon wen. Dit is ten spyte daarvan dat Sharks voor en agter bykans die hele wedstryd die oorhand gehad het.

Toegegee, dit was opwindende rugby by tye, maar fiksheid het verhoed dat beide spanne se spelers vining genoeg by die afsnypunte opdaag - of in plek kom vir maak of breek verdediging. Dit het ook verhoed dat enige van die spanne kan aanspraak maak balbesit of veld besit. Die skopwerk was ook nie van die beste nie. Veral nie vir die besoekers wat in die tweede helfte letterlik die wind van voor gehad het nie. Ons moet ook in ag neem dat daar nog baie skuurwerk voorlê vir ons West Coast Sharks.

Dit was die spelers se eerste wedstryd saam as 'n span. Die West Coast Sharks is beslis 'n span wat jy in die toekoms kan dophou – mits hulle fiksheid vroeg in die seisoen prioriteit maak en daarmee saam bou aan tegniek en verdediging.

Walvisbaai Rugby Klub moes Saterdagmiddag in die hoofwedstryd in die Premier-liga die knie met 62-5 teen Trustco United 1 buig. Agterlyn, agterlyn,

Floris Steenkamp agterlyn. Die Walvisbaai se pak voorspelers het Trustco United 1 sonder twyfel oorheers, maar die agterlyn was hopeloos met besluitlose bewegings en 'n algemene statiese benadering tot die opponent se spelpatroon. Trustco United 1 se agterlyn in teenstelling was witwarm en het Walvisbaai se swakhede genadeloos uitgebuit. Van die nege drieë het Trustco United 1 se agterlyn agt gedruk. Drie daarvan was onderskepdrieë vanuit dieselfde posisie. Hoewel van die spelers reeds sedert die vorige seisoen saamspeel, was dit duidelik dat daar nog hard gewerk moet word voor die liga spoed kry.
