Where does this water come from?

Sharlien Tjambari Leaners from different schools in Swakopmund gathered at Coasth tal High School on Friday [14 February] to celebrate the 30 Anniversary of the adoption of the Namibian Constitution. The very important event was celebrated with Namibia's Ombudsman, Advocate John Walters as the guest speaker.

The celebration was themed: “The Namibian Constitution…30 years on Are we the Namibia we want to be?”

Advocate Walters told the audience to view the Namibian Constitution as the soul of the country. It determines the composition of our country's Government, as the supreme law of the country all other legislation and the administration of justice flows from it. It determines our fundamental rights and freedoms and also shows us the way to treat each other with dignity, to respect other viewpoints and orientations and to respect other cultures and religious believes other than your own.

“Dear learners, the Constitution does not keep you in school, protect you from pregnancy or give you a pass rate at school without hard work”.

Amongst those who attended the ceremony was Mr Anton von Wietersheim. Anton von Wietersheim was also instrumental in the adoption of the Namibian Constitution on 9 February 1990.

Von Wietersheim agreed Namibia has achieved much since 1990, including peace and stability, but said it was questionable whether “we are the Namibia that we want to be”.

Speaking on behalf of the Governor of Erongo Region, the Special Adviser to the Governor, Adelheid Kandjala, asked learners if the Constitution hindered them to be the persons they want to be.

“You are our off-springs, change your mind from negative to positive things. See your future ahead of you. Stop with bullying, harassing and abusing other learners. Where your right ends, the other person's right starts”, she explained.

Prior to the celebration of the 30th Anniversary of the adoption of the Namibian Constitution, the learners were asked to write a poem about what the Constitution of the Republic of Namibia means to them.

Powerline Matsuis, a Grade 12 pupil at Coastal High School won the competition and won as a prize a brand new cell phone with the compliments of MTC Namibia.

Making an impact with Sunday night accident volunteering Isaac Chikosi

Have you ever wanted to go over and beyond by helping your community? Becoming a volunteer can be the perfect opportunity to give back to your community and make a positive impact. Whether you are taking a gap year or simply have time on your hands, offering your skills and services goes a long way. Volunteers can be involved in areas such as wildlife conservation, health care, the environment and teaching.

Organisations such as Peace Corps, Red Cross, SPCA, ElephantHuman Relations Aid(EHRA) and Mondesa Youth Opportunities(MYO) take in volunteers regularly. At the age of 19, Isabelle von Ahlen and Jasmin Walter from Germany are currently volunteering for Red Cross Namibia in Swakopmund. Asked what their motivation is for volunteering, von Ahlen said for her it was very important to gain experience before going to university. “ I want to avoid being lazy and I feel this opportunity gives one necessary experience to develop yourself”, said Walter.

EHRA headquartered in Swakopmund, works directly with the local community in protecting vulnerable structures such as water points from damage and manage conflict between the elephants and local populations. EHRA's wildlife volunteer program is structured in two-week rotations. However, you can repeat for a maximum of 12 weeks. Each of their volunteer groups has a maximum of 14 people, of all ages and from all walks of life. The minimum age is 17 years old and there is no maximum age limit.

Volunteering in other countries is also a great way to gain valuable experience and exposure. Melty-Mertens Shikongo a Swakopmunder is currently volunteering in western Germany in the city of Bochum. He is volunteering at an Old Age home. “My duties are, to keep the elderly people active by playing games with them, talking to them whenever they are not eating or sleeping, actually to just not let them feel bored and alone”, he said. Speaking to the Namib Times about his experiences so far, Shikongo said, first, the weather in Germany is the biggest challenge. “It's always cold if not raining. The German Language is a challenge, but I was lucky that I had basics from home. People here don't speak English.

Especially at my workplace, none of those I'm taking care of can speak nor understand. I just want to encourage my fellow friends to consider these voluntary opportunities. All you need is an open minded and yourself. If there is anyone that is interested in this, I'm willing to help on you can get here. I would never regret this and if only was it possible, I would come back repeatedly.”

In retrospect the impact of volunteering has far reaching positive benefits for communities and the environment. Unfold those hands and give a hand. Besides it will look great on your resume.

The weekend ended on a low tone for these two motorists when their vehicles collided at around 20:00 on Sunday night in Nangolo Mbumba Drive.

No injuries were reported but damage to the vehicles were extensive.

Operation Kalahari yields results During the 7th phase of Operation Kalahari Desert, member of the Namibian Police at Swakopmund, the Namibian Defence Force, Namibia Correctional Services and Nampol Reservists conducted foot patrols in Mondesa and Swakopmund. The patrols confiscated a number of knives from people.

The operation was conducted on Saturday, 15 February. The police also recovered a stolen Samsung cell phone from a suspect.

In other unrelated cases, one man was found in possession of counterfeit currency and charged for dealing in counterfeit money.

He was consequently arrested for attempting to tender/buy with a fake N$200 note.

Four other persons were detained and charged for drunkenness and disorderly behaviour in public (when a drunk and disorderly person is detained and charged, a possible domestic violence case is prevented). The public is warned to be on alert for counterfeit money in circulation again.

Where does this body of water come from?

Eileen van der Schyff

Residents of Fairways in Walvis Bay are wondering what all this water is doing on an undeveloped piece of land flanked by Tecomaria Street and Nangolo Mbumba Drive. �It is unclear as to how the water got there. It looks like someone has been digging or trying to contain the water, as heaps of sand are laying all along the water line�. The origin of the water is yet unknown and could either be underground water, as Walvis Bay is largely constructed on reclaimed land and the water table is very shallow. A ruptured water pipe could also have been the culprit, guessed another resident.

Renowned news photographer John Liebenberg died age 62 The celebrated journalist and photographer, John Liebenberg, died in South Africa over the weekend at the age of 62. Liebenberg recovered from surgery when fatal complications stepped in.

Liebenberg was a war photographer in the 1980's, having joined The Namibian newspaper during that time.

Closer to home Liebenberg will be remembered for his arrest twice within five days in May 2006 in Swakopmund and later in Walvis Bay on trespassing charges. That was in his quest to photograph the then Hollywood glamour couple, Angelina Jolie and Brand Pitt, who spent months here at the coast waiting for the birth of their first biological child.

Liebenberg's arrest by the Namibian Police was criticised at the time as a waste of resources. Liebenberg should have been afforded an opportunity to pay an admission of guilt fine at the police station upon his arrest. He was hiding out in the police barracks in 11th Street close to the Welwitschia Private Hospital, presumably waiting for an opportunity to photograph the glamour couple.

The magistrate at the time, Mr Sarel Jacobs, chastised the Namibian Police for arresting Liebenberg and incarcerating for an entire weekend Above: the front page of the Namib before a first appearance in the Walvis Times in May 2006 when Liebenberg Bay magistrate's court that Monday appeared in the Walvis Bay magistrate’s morning. court on a charge of tresspassing

The project grant, funded by AFD for a maximum total amount of NAD 10,6Mn (EUR 650k) is aimed at supporting a win-win partnership between the Grand Port Maritime de Dunkerque and the Port of Walvis Bay. Through peer-to-peer exchanges and consulting services, it will seek to improve the performances of the Port of Walvis Bay in a regional and international perspective, while providing a stronger positioning of the GPMD on the maritime flows involving Southern Africa and Europe. GPMD will also provide its expertise for the implementation of a “green port strategy” at the Port of Walvis Bay. “The maritime sector strongly contributes to our economy, and we therefore pay a special attention to the development of our relationships with strategic foreign partners.

This has been a topic of common interest between French and Namibia Governments, and I am very pleased to see that the collaboration between our two ports is entering into a concrete phase of implementation”, Mr Raison, Chairman of the Management Board of the Grand Port Maritime de Dunkerque, said.

The signing ceremony of this tripartite MoU was held with the participation of Mrs Valérie Létard, VicePresident of the French Senate and Senator of the Hauts-de-France region, stating: “Our region is one of the main economic areas in Europe, with a direct access to five capitals (Paris, Brusells, London, Amsterdam and Luxembourg) and three seafront ports (GPMD, Boulogne sur mer and Calais) forming the first port system in France. Like in Namibia, we benefit from a dynamic fishing industry, and we are very keen on strengthening the synergies between the stakeholders of this sector and our ports”. As a sheltered deep-water port, the Port of Walvis Bay plays a strategic role in Namibia's development. It recently extended its terminal container and expressed great interest in benefiting from the expertise of GPMD in order to improve port operations through identified strategic areas of cooperation. “Our mission is clear, that as Namport we strive to provide world-class port experience to all users of our ports, as well as to meaningfully contribute towards Namibia's transformational agenda that of becoming a Logistics Hub

for the Southern African Developmental Community (SADC)”. Mr Kavin Harry, Acting CEO, Namport, said. In addition to this grant, the Agence Française de Développement will be in discussions with Namport to support the company's potential investment needs, through soft loan financings. After the opening of its office in Windhoek last year, AFD is willing to support the implementation of the Namibian National Development Plan (NDP) including the transport sector.

About Grand Port Maritime de Dunkerque: The largest French port complex (Calais-Dunkerque); the ninth largest port on the Channel and North Sea Range and France's third-largest port, Dunkerque-Port has built a reputation in many sectors: it is the largest passenger port in Europe (Calais-Dunkerque hub); France's largest energy hub; the country's largest LNG terminal; the leading French port for containerised fruit and vegetable imports; the largest French port for ore and coal imports; France's largest rail port; the region's largest waterway port; and the third-ranking French port for grain traffic.

PowerCom construct Network tower at Walvis Bay Rudi Bowe

PowerCom Pty Ltd recently had their ground-breaking ceremony for the construction of a new Network tower at Walvis Bay's Extension 17.

The construction of the Network tower at Walvis Bay's Extension 17is the first of 19 tower developments due to take place in the coming months, all working towards fulfilling PowerCom's mandate of growing infrastructure across the country and with the company's infrastructure footprint expansion strategy of investing N$24 million into building 19 towers by September 2020.

At the recent groundbreaking ceremony PowerCom confirmed the tower's commencement as well as the company's infrastructure CAPEX investment rollout for 2019/ 2020, which seeks to increase the company's footprint and asset base to best

service ICT players and offer last mile connectivity.

PowerCom will be invested a total of N$5 602 600 in Walvis Bay alone, through the construction and refurbishment of four other towers in the town, namely, Walvis Bay Harbour, Walvis Bay Golf Course, Walvis Bay Ext.17, Narraville and refurbishment of Walvis Bay tower Walkway.

The Minister of Information and Communication Technology (ICT), Stanley Simataa, acknowledged Walvis Bay's strategic location as being a logistic hub and a growing haven of activity, where tourists visit and thousands of Namibians come to work and enjoy their leisure time.

Simataa said “As the importance of this area

continues to grow, it is crucial that connectivity keeps pace with it.

PowerCom's response to the growth within this region is of benefit to all residing and working here, and it is my firm belief that their investments will further stimulate other investment, both national and international.

“As Walvis Bay is also a tourist hub, it is important that we are able to offer travellers the connectivity they expect from a tower such as this strategically located at the Independence Beach” Simataa added.

Simataa added that they need to address a host of issues that impair the maximization of ICT infrastructure, key of which are affordability and low levels of digital literacy and encourage

PowerCom's CEO, Alisa Amupolo, said at the ground breaking ceremony that the company seeks to align itself with the growth and respond to growth demands of its inhabitants in Walvis Bay and the strategic importance at the harbour town.

“Due to the National Oil Storage Hub, apartment blocks, service station and the future shopping mall, it is a location demanding

the type of communications infrastructure investment PowerCom offers” Amupolo said.

The planned 30 meter camouflaged Palm Tree Network tower will be fully constructed by 20 March and be fully operational by 1 April, with connected clients able to utilise its services.

In partnership with various stakeholders, PowerCom has identified significant coverage gaps where either 2G or 3G coverage is very weak – and 4G coverage even worse.

PowerCom's Board Chairperson, Irene Simeon-Kurtz, said that mobile coverage and internet access are pivotal for businesses to thrive, and is a key component of PowerCom's value propo-

sition to Namibia.

“By providing the infrastructure for businesses to communicate and develop, we therefore add to our count r y ' s e c o n o my”Simeon-Kurtz said.

Amupolo added that P o w e r C o m u n d e rstands its responsibility as an infrastructure provider to anticipate future demands as much as possible and as communities continue to expand, PowerCom's commitment is to be present and aid in that expansion.

Amupolo said “Plans f r o m Wa l v i s B a y municipality for the expansion of Farm 37 have also resulted in us examining our own infrastructure plans for

2021 to ascertain whether that community can also be effectively serviced by ICT infrastructure”.

PowerCom understand their responsibilities as an infrastructure provider to anticipate future demands as much as possible. Plans from Walvis Bay municipality for the expansion of Farm 37 have therefore resulted in the company examining their own infrastructure plans for 2021 to ascertain whether that community can also be effectively serviced by ICT infrastructure.

XCCS Namibia scoops awards Rudi Bowe

XCCS Namibia recently scooped the most awards at the driver's recognition awards ceremony hosted by Vivo Energy Namibia at the Protea Marriott Hotel in Walvis Bay. Vivo Energy, the distributor and marketer of Shell branded fuels and lubricants in Namibia, rewarded high performing truck drivers for the year 2019.

The three hauliers contracted to Vivo Energy Namibia; XCCS Namibia, Unitrans Namibia and Cape Town-based Cargo Carriers, all recognised their best drivers for driving safely without violating any of the high stan-

dards set for 2019.

The Driver's Recognition Awards is an annual event with the objective of inspiring the drivers of haulage trucks that transport petroleum products for Vivo Energy Namibia, to better road safety behaviour and compliance.

Drivers' performance is measured by their level of adherence and compliance to Health, Security, Safety and Environment (HSSE) standards whose overall aim is 'Goal Zero', mea-

ning no harm to people, assets and the environment throughout Vivo Energy's operations.

Vivo Energy places a lot of emphasis on driver management with the transport companies that it conducts business with drivers held responsible for the lives of people on the road, the vehicle they are driving, the product they are transporting and ensuring they protect the environment from any oil spills as they drive their trucks.

On-Board-Computers (OBC) installed in every truck that transport Shell petroleum products for Vivo Energy Namibia, allow for the monitoring of every journey in real time.

Supply and Distribution Manager at Vivo Energy Namibia Geoffrey Elyanu said: “The overall safety performance for 2019 has been an interesting reading with no motor vehicle accidents, fatalities or injuries recorded over the combined 6,467,969 kilo-

meters covered by the three companies that traveled to transport our product”.

“This would not have been possible without the active participation and attention to detail by the drivers, who also improved on the reporting of Potential Incidents over the year”, Elyanu added.

Managing Director, Vivo Energy Namibia Edward Walugembe said at the award ceremony: “The Driver's Recognition Awards are Vivo Energy Namibia's way of expressing its gratitude to the drivers of these trucks that cover vast distances during the year to bring product to the customer”.

Walugembe added that the drivers' efforts to safely deliver their petroleum products often go unnoticed and therefore an event such as the Driver's Recognition Awards is of utmost importance in maintaining Vivo Energy's safety records on the roads.

Walugembe emphasized on HSSE as an integral part of the Vivo Energy business that grants the entity its license to operate.

Therefore Vivo Energy would like to remind all their drivers and families of the value that Vivo Energy attach to their jobs and their aim throughout this year will be to keep

motivating high performing drivers to uphold the standards of health and safety on the road.

Vivo Energy operates and markets its products in countries across North, West, East and Southern Africa.

The Group has a network of over 2,100 service stations in 23 countries operating under the Shell and Engen brands and exports lubricants to a few other African countries. Its retail offering includes fuels, lubricants, card services, shops, restaurants and other nonfuel services. It provides fuels and lubricants to business customers across a range of sectors including marine, mining, construction, power, transport, and manufacturing.

The award winners are: The three hauliers contracted to Vivo Energy Namibia each had a Driver of the Year; Solly Williams from XCCS Namibia, Matheus Chipandeka from Unitrans Namibia and Vuyani Khanuka from Cargo Carriers, Cape Town.

The runner – up driver of the year is Adolf Khoeseb from XCCS Namibia The Endurance Award is awarded to the driver that covered the longest distance without a safetyrelated incident. The award went to Samuel Hailume

from XCCS Namibia for covering 135,000 km, mainly across the hazardous northern regions of Namibia.

The Vigilance Award is awarded for the driver that has logged the most Potential Incidents (PIs) on the system. Matheus Chipandeka from Unitrans Namibia received the Vigilance Award Vuyani Khanuka from Cargo Carriers, Cape Town received the Quality PIs Award for the driver that logs the Best Potential Incidents (PIs) on the system.

Johannes Kanyanga from XCCS Namibia was the recipient of the Trailblazer Award, A peer recognition award for the driver that commands leadership amongst their peers in all areas of the profession.

Isak Gaoseb from XCCS Namibia was the recipient of the Valor (CourageUnder-Fire) Award.

JJD pledges Unity, Inclusion and Partnership Rudi Bowe Well know Walvis Bay businessman and former Namibia Premier League (NPL) chairperson Johnny Johnson Doeseb promised to redeem football in Namibian should he be elected as the President of the Namibian Football Association on 22 February.

Doeseb who launched his five-pillar manifesto themed 'Unity, Inclusion & Partner-ship', last week said that his plans to reform the constitution of the NFA and give back the real decision-making power to the member associations by changing NFA structures.

Doeseb is convinced that, given the opportunity to run the struggling Association, football in the country would thrive to higher heights and that the current set up is flawed and does not represent the masses, therefore the six-member executive committee would be expanded to include all 14 regional and all 16 NPL club chairpersons, with the NPL head automatically doubling as NFA third vice-president.

Doeseb said that his main focus will be to rebrand and reposition the brand of Namibian football so that it becomes passionate, consistent, exciting and trustworthy in the eyes of every Namibian in the interest of the players and the various stakeholders that benefit from this brand and that the NPL would be assimilated into NFA structures, as a standalone competition with the National Football mother body overseeing and ensuring funding for all levels of football.

Doeseb added that he will ensure a clear separation of powers with simple structures worthy of modern democracy and in doing so, we can avoid a situation like the current one whereby football has come to a stand-still because of egos and short-sightedness and that this is not a quick fix exercise.

Doeseb intends to surround himself with “people who have the capacity” and do away with deadwood and that it is imperative to “adjust to change” if domestic football is to recover and with his passion for football.

An advisory NFA football council harnessing knowledge from retired football personalities – including players, coaches, and administrators would be assembled to forge a united football family Doeseb added.

Doeseb proposed a national football indaba to discuss

pertinent football matters, including the funding challenge. This indaba will give an opportunity for mem-bers of the football fraternity to contribute to the re-structuring of the sport in the country. He also vowed to increase participation of all age groups and genders in grassroots foot-ball, which he said remains the corner-stone of development.

“I will never discriminate when it comes to men and women, but will increase expertise in elite and grassroots football development and also expand infrastructure and the distribution of football material and will improve the standard of refereeing around the country by investing in referee training and development and creating opportunities to expose our referees to better their standards and introduce courses for executive members and regional leadership to enhance their skills.,” Doeseb said.

Doeseb will prioritise a club licensing system within the leagues as he believes that this set-up will promote the level of professionalism.

“I want to restore the credibility and image of the NFA with a real change in leadership and take the necessary steps to create a new and modern NFA worthy of the public's trust and will involve leading and respected football figures in advising the decision-makers of Namibian football with the creation of an NFA football council,” Doeseb said.

Doeseb added that Football House will not tolerate any tribalism and that it will not be a Damara, Owambo, Nama or Herero house, but will include each and every Namiian.

People will be employed because of merit and qualifications.

Doeseb emphasised that there is an urgent need to remove the blockages to the pro-gress of young footballers, both male and female and that this is something that we have to look at again because we have to bridge the gap between women and men's football. People must be treated equally and therefore funding must be allocated equally.

Doeseb who is up against Ranga Haikali, Mabos Vries and Isak Fredericks said that he want to ensure that NFA wins back the public's trust and that it is managed as a sound business, accounting for public funds by ensuring that people with high integrity forms part of the administration.

Women’s Week at Rossmund Golf Club It was time to play the Rossmund Golf Club's monthly SAGES Competition sponsored Fischreier Bed & Breakfast/Tienie & Betsie van Rensburg on Sunday 16 January at the clubs greens.

We had a good turnout of 26 players which unfortunately did not include Tienie as he had travelled to Windhoek on family business.

Chris Magson made the only two club of the day whilst Christo Botha & Andrew Cunningham secured the Nearest to the Pin Prizes. We had a three way tie on 36 points for the top spot – the winner being Lynne van der Walt followed

by Billy Knight & Heidi van Niekerk.

The days play was followed by the AGM – the floor voted that the 2019 team stays in place for 2020.

Chairman Achmet Abrahams however requested the members present to start working on some of the younger Sages to take over the reins – this was necessary to facilitate continuation.

The first Destination Swakopmund Betterball Competition was played on Saturday 15 January - as was to be expected the field was small due to several of the regular players travelling to Windhoek to compete in the Federation Pairs.

Despite the low numbers some great golf was played in excellent golfing conditions. Tiekie De Wet was able to shoot a 2club on Number 7 lifting her into the

Winners Circle with partner Mariena Ludwig on 47 points; 2nd: George Murasiki/Fanus Jordaan 42 points; 3rd: Gert Cloete/Hans Naobeb.

We say thanks to the sponsor and especially Oliver Ahrens for officiating at the prize-giving.

On Wednesday 12 February was the Swakopmund Plaza Hotel sponsored competition with some breakfast voucher up for grabs. Remember once you have experienced this lovely breakfast to post a little something on Trip Advisor by way of a thank you. The 18-hole Winner - after a three-way count-out - was Bubble Burns on 37 points with

Warren Theron being loser No.1 - Fanie Terblanche Loser No.2 managed to secure the 9-hole prize with an excellent 22 points winning a count out over Rina Knight. It was great to have Billy back on the course however he did not have such a wonderful day.

A Betterball Stableford sponsored by Premier Construction was held on Saturday 8 February - the competition doubled as the clubs 1st Qualifier for 2020 International Pairs. We had a good field of 34 players - with 2-clubs coming from Warren Theron and Theo Haimbondi. Winners on the Day: Steven Johns/George

The winners of the Destination Swakopmund Betterball – George Murasiki (RGC); Mariena Ludwig; Oliver Ahrens (Destination Swakop) and Tiekie De Wet Murasiki 47 points this win gives them a place in the International Pairs Final; 2nd: John Redman/ Hoffie Viljoen 44 points; 3rd: Clive Lawrence/ Leon Matthews 43 points (c/o). Well done to all

the players and thank you to our sponsor.

As most of you are aware we currently have a 4 legged visitor to the course - residing in the vicinity of Number 8 - we request everyone to refrain from approaching him

either by foot or by vehicle - remember he is wild!! Leave him in peace and he will do his own thing.

We have noticed vehicles in the area th at ar e d r iv in g across the fairway.

NASU would like to thank SANLAM for their donation and Theresa Westerduin (Team Manager) for all her hard work in ensuring that all documentation and travel needs are met.

Mr S Mwiya from the Namibian Sports Commission handed over certificates from the Namibian Colours for those swimmers who

He cautioned all against doping and the pressure to succeed in dishonest ways. He further commented on the new apparel that had been approved by the NSC - stating the swimmers looked ready to represent their country proudly in their new and very smart apparel.

McNamara said “We know they are ready to represent Namibia and that NASU are incredibly proud of them. The team will be accompanied by Jean-Michael Leitner (Coach) and Theresa Westerduin (Team Manager)” The team will be accompanied by Jean-Michael Leitner (Coach) and Theresa Westerduin (Team Manager).
