Roof skud Swakopmund Maria Davel-Wallis Die eienaar van Stop 'n Shop in Tamariskia, Seth Louw, het namib times gisteroggend geskok geskakel, en ingelig dat gewapende rowers vroeër die oggend tussen N$60 000 en N$70 000 by sy winkel geroof het.

“Hulle het twee werknemers oorval, vasgebind en aangehou, en die kluis in die kantoor op die eerste vloer van die gebou, leeggemaak. Hulle het die dame wat in die kantoor besig was om vir die dag gereed te maak oorval, haar vasgebind en het met duisende rande weggekom.”

Hy sê hy was nog by die huis toe sy werknemer wat in die kantoor werk, Anna Louw (nie familie van Mnr Louw nie) hom geskakel het en van die voorval ingelig het. Die rowers het net voor agt gisteroggend toegeslaan.

Toe namib times op die toneel aankom, was verskeie lede van die polisie steeds daar, besig om getuienis en leidrade te ondersoek en te versamel. 'n Ondersoekbeampte van die Eenheid vir Ernstige Misdade het pas uit Walvisbaai ook daar opgedaag.

Byrnesvag behoort aan Floors Eigelaar en word geskipper deur die Walvisbaaier, mnr Jaco Robberts.

Louw-hulle werk, het blykbaar deur 'n hek aan die agterkant van die gebou die besigheid binnegegaan, gevolg deur 'n jong werknemer, wat veronderstel was om die hek agter hulle te sluit.

“Ek het pas die kluis in die kantoor oopgesluit en was besig om die twee skootrekenaars te verwyder wat ons saans daar toesluit, toe ek skielik deur gewapende mans oorval is. Hulle was jonk, die man met die vuurwapen was gemasker. Hulle het Oshivambo met mekaar gepraat, en met my het die leier met die wapen Afrikaans gepraat. Ek het nie die ander drie gesien nie.”

Hulle het haar hande en voete vasgebind en haar onder die tafel in die kantoor ingedruk. Sy het later, toe die rowers weg is, uitgekruip en

Volgens Seth Louw is daar die afgelope sowat 11 jaar reeds 15 keer by die besigheid ingebreek. Hy sê hy is ook al by sy huis oorval en beroof, verskeie kere met 'n mes gesteek en vir dood agtergelaat. Vanjaar was daar inbrake in Maart, Mei, Julie, Augustus en nou in November. Hy sê hulle het verskeie soorte veiligheid wat alarms, veiligheidskameras en gewapende reaksie insluit, maar steeds is dit het einde niet. 'n Jong werknemer, wat sedert Saterdag daar gewerk het, en saam met Me Louw die winkel binnegegaan het, was na bewering besig om die hek agter die gebou weer te sluit toe hy oorval is. Sy hande is blykbaar in 'n stadium ook vasgebind. Die polisie het hom glo weggeneem vir ondervraging. Teen saktyd was die polisie nog besig met ondervraging.

The National Assembly of Namibia hosted the 38th Plenary Assembly of the Southern African Development Community (SADC) Parliamentary Forum with the theme, “From Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) to Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs): Towards a Greater Parliamentary Role in the Development Agenda.”

According to Dr Esau Chiya, the SecretaryGeneral on behalf of Hon Joseph Rabson Njob-vuyalema and Member of Parliament of the National Assembly of Malawi, the following topics were discussed: the Joint Session of Standing Committees and considering of the Draft Model Law on eradicating child marriage and protecting those already in marriage, a motion on the criminalisation of HIV transmission, exposure and nondisclosure in SADC member states, a motion on legislation

for gender quotas as a strategy to accelerate gender equality in line with the SADC Protocol on Gender and Development and a motion for adoption of the report of the Standing committee on gender equality, women advancement and youth development.

According to Dr Peter Katjavivi, a Member of Parliament and Speaker of the National Assembly of Namibia one key issue which was addressed by the assembly is the subject of energy shortages within the region and how the challenge could be

addressed through climate financing so as to develop renewable energy projects.

“In this context, countries within the SADC Region have been reminded to explore areas for collaborative endeavours to take this idea further” said Katjavivi.

The Forum was attended by 12 out of 14 SADC Member Parliaments.

A life- and business lesson from Dr Quinton van Rooyen Namibian business mogul Dr Quinton van Rooyen says if he can convince one person in his life to believe in himself and his destiny, and make things happen for him or her, he would feel an accomplished man. Dr van Rooyen is the Group Managing Director and Executive Director of Trustco Group Holdings, owner to some leading brands in Namibia and Southern Africa, including Trustco Insurance and the Institute of Open Learning (IOL).

Dr van Rooyen made this remark on Thursday night in Walvis Bay, at the Second QVR Code.

Before a packed audience Dr van Rooyen, who turned fifty recently, shared freely from his rich source of life- and business experience.

Those present also had the opportunity to address questions to this business leader on how they too can accomplish in their personal, professional and business lives.

Provide security, as this shows to your financier you believe in yourself, you belief and in your venture,” he added to this basic value.

On the topic of bank managers, Dr van Rooyen had further advice: never tell your bank manager of your problems, and if you do, focus on the solutions. Also be clear about your opportunities.

Quick reaction by Security company and Police The quick reaction of a security company and the police resulted in the apprehension of a burglar after a break-in occurred in the central business area of Walvis Bay last week Thursday.

A reader informed the newspaper that two burglars broke into 79 Sam Nujoma Avenue around 20:45 when they forced the locks of a steel security door, as well as a wooden door of the main entrance of the house w i t h a c r o w b a r.

Apparently the alarm sounded when they entered the house and G4S security responded within a few minutes.

The suspects took a laptop computer but one of them dropped it

when he escaped.

The other suspect was caught by a member of the security company and the police arrived immediately thereafter and put him under arrest.

According to the reader the alarm of his house was fully activated but it did not

deter the thieves, a clear indication of the increasing arrogance and boldness of criminals.

He urged the community and businesses to be on high alert and applauded the security company and the police for their quick reaction.

Feesgety kom nader, so ook die streke Liesl Losper Lesers het namib times die afgelope tyd geskakel en ingelig oor verdagte aktiwiteite in verskeie woonbuurte op Walvisbaai waar persone skynbaar probeer vasstel of daar bedags mense tuis is.

Hul sê dit is die werk van mense wat inligting aan inbrekers en ander misdaadsindikate verskaf.

In die een geval het 'n vroulike inwoner een oggend 'n man by haar voordeur aangetref met 'n stapel vorms. Dié was besig om van die vorms in te vul, en wou weet oor die waterverwarmer, rommelverwydering en ook of daar 'n alarmstelsel in die huis is, en of dit in 'n werkende toestand is.

Toe die inwoner wou verneem oor die redes vir die vrae, het die man bloot gesê hy sou die inligting met sekere instansies deel.

Twee dae later was daar weer twee mans, en dié keer het hulle beweer hulle werk vir 'n maatskappy met die naam Schenker Aircon & Geysers. Toe sy sê hulle moet net 'n rukkie wag haar man is op pad huistoe , het hulle soos 'n groot spelde verdwyn, wat min twyfel laat dat hulle inligting wou uitvis om vas te stel of die woning 'n maklike teiken vir 'n huisbraak sou wees.

Ene Mev Fourie van Meersig het ook haar kommer oor die saak met die koerant gedeel en gesê sy word weer gereeld gebel en gevra of 'n sekere erfnommer dié van haar woning is. Een van die vrae wat daarop volg is of daar iemand bedags tuis is. Sodra die persoon wat skakel vrae begin vra, sit die persoon die telefoon af.

“Waarsku asseblief die kusgemeenskappe teen mense wat by jou voordeur opdaag en inligting van jou verlang. As die persoon himself nie behoorlik kan identifiseer, soos byvoorbeeld 'n sensus-beampte nie, laat hom goed verstaan jy sal eerder die polisie wil ontbied om oor hy of sy doen en late vrae te vra. Moet ook geen inligting telefonies uitgee nie, en pasop vir slenters waar mense by jou opdaag en kwansuis die yskas, wasmasjien of stoof vir herstelwerk kom haal,” het een van die persone gewaarsku.

Mutjavikua said “Data shows that over the 2001 and 2011 period, Erongo Region has recorded a 3% reduction in poverty from 9.3 % to 6.3 %, yet much more remains to be done, even if that could be halved to 3 %, it will still mean there is more to be addressed.”

According to Mutjavikua, this year’s theme “SMEs for Poverty Eradication and Job Creation for Women and Youth” calls for a stronger focus on the war against poverty.

“Critically, this will include the strengthening of SME policies and programmes designed to uplift and support the micro, small and medium scale enterprises (MSME) in the country.

In line with the National policy on MSME, the government strongly committed to foster economic growth and development in order to overcome poverty and unemployment.”

He said that capacitating women and youth in business opens up major possibilities for job creation and resilience in the Erongo Region and the country at large.

“To achieve this, it will require significant investments and interventions to capacitate our entrepreneurs to upgrade their production and be able to grow from being MSMEs to large enterprises.”

Mutjavikua said the ultimate goal of SMEs is not to remain small, informal but, rather to graduate into large formal enterprises.

“In other words, being small and informal is the first step in contributing to poverty reduction.

When SMEs are formalised their businesses will at least pay taxes and by doing so, contribute to funding state budget for social support and employment creation.”

He also urged all business owners in the Erongo Region to register their businesses and ensure a sustainable contribution to poverty eradication.

“SMEs are key contributors to employment creation, income generation and poverty reduction among the inhabitants of the Erongo region and Namibia, both in rural and urban areas.”

Mutjavikua also said “To create and sustain job creation in the long term, the programmes designed to assist SMEs in Namibia should be coordinated between private and public institutions supporting SMEs, thus avoiding duplication of efforts and wasting of resources hampering efficient support to MSMEs.”

According to Mutjavikua, Namibia is face with interrelated problems of high levels poverty, unemployment and unequal distribution of income and wealth as well as low economic growth.

“In an effort to address these challenges, the Government has devised measures and has been rallying the citizens to act in a coordinated manner.”

He said the Government has designed Vision 2030 and National Development Plans to serve as our roadmap and framework.

“Our current National Development Plan (NDP) has identified manufacturing, agriculture, tourism and logistics. Erongo Region is a blessed region to have flourished in most of these sectors and in particular tourism, mining, fishing, logistics and manufacturing.”

Mutjavikua added the MITSD has been assigned a leading role in rallying national efforts towards boosting industrial output and an expansion in the share contribution of manufacturing to the GDP and employment.

“In this connection MITSD has adopted the “Growth at Home strategy” whose emphasis is focused on increasing manufacturing as well as value addition to our natural resources and an increase in export and global competitiveness.

We need global competitiveness to expand our industrial base and opportunities for employment in order to reduce poverty and inequality in the distribution of income.”

Mutjavikua acknowledged that the manufacturers are also facing a number of challenges in their efforts to manufacturing goods and create bobs.

“One of such needs is access to productive equipment, which they need to produce more efficiently and to meet the quality standards expected by consumers.

The MITSD has come up with the equipment aid scheme, which aid is meant to empower those Namibians who want to work, produce goods and in that process create employment for themselves and other Namibians.”

He added the ministry has assisted 159 entrepreneurs in the Erongo Region. The government has trained 441 youth under the Namibia Youth Credit Scheme, of which 205 have received loans. “200 entrepreneurs were thus established with 231 jobs created.”

It is again that time that we as members of the community of Walvis Bay are encouraged to go and vote for the different political parties in Namibia.

It is because of our democratic system that we are to go and vote on the 27 November 2015. And as a public member I feel that before I go and vote I want the following issues to be addressed by those concerned.

Since I stayed here in Walvis Bay I don't know who our councillors are.

These are because none of the councillors pays visits to know their people. Nou verwag hulle ons moet hulle weer gaan kies. Vir wat? En hoekom? Dit is vir my moeilik om te verstaan hoe diegene Councillors Hafeni Ndemula en John Nangolo hulle weer moet verskiesbaar maak.

Ons ken hulle nie omrede omdat hulle net gesien word tydens verkiesings en verdwyn hulle weer na die verskiesing verby is.

Hafeni Ndemula as leader of the Walvis Bay Multi-Purpose Centre in Kuisebmond failed to bring it to any standard and therefore the donors have refused to spent money on the facility while he is there. The donors informed us that as long as he is the chairperson they will not finance any project at the Centre. The Centre is been run like a kindergarten where he brought in his own people. The situation is shameful and does not have leadership to take it to the next level. As a councillor, Mr. Ndemula failed to empower just one single resident of Walvis Bay. He is a person that looks down on people, want to be higher up and being greedy. This is not what we want. We want a leader who listens to the people. 'n Mens moet maar wonder hoekom het Mr. Ndemula sy maniere verander en of hoekom sien hy sy mede mense onder. Is dit rerig 'n karakter van 'n goeie leier dié?

The other, Mr. John Nangolo failed to even be known at all. Waar bly hy?

Hoe werk hy. The office of the councillor has become a dumping site.

Heap of rubbish and there are now ghettos on site and surrounding the offices. It is now a 'blikkiesdorp'. He thinks he is in the village where he comes from. Mense dit kan mos nie so aangaan nie! Hy kan mos die Munisipaliteit inroep om die vuilis te kom verwyder. How can we keep the town clean if we have even councilors who are becoming champions in making Kuisebmond dirty. I told him the other day that he must at least have regular community meetings. By the way 'Om the Wat?'.

Ons soek kandidate wat geken word. Kandidate wat met mense kan assosieer word.

Watter veranderinge het hulle vir die dorp gedoen en wat beteken hulle vir die dorp. 'n Ronde Nil! Kuisebmond was a clean place, but now it has becomes the second 'Okahandja'. Kuisebmond is dirty. It will take a miracle to make it clean again. There are a lot of bars, ghettos and it is so 'deurmekaar'. There are not even a place where young people can go and play. The play parks for children are vandalised and equipments are broken.

Wat gaan aan? What happened to our town? We hear that there is now corruption at the Municipality. I feel shame for this. Wat moet ons doen om die situasie te red?

Lastly, I feel that the majority of candidates for the Municipality Town are mostly new people. If elected to council of the Municipality, do they know how to run the town? Walvis Bay is not a village, or Ongandjera or Uis. It is a industrial town. We must have people with knowledge and understanding of the running of a big town or have leadership qualities.

Maar met die kandidate is dit so hopeloos. En waar is die ware kandidate of eervare mense van Walvisbaai? Tenminste moes hulle 'n paar bekende mense van Walvisbaai genomineer het wat die belange van die dorp op die hart dra. Ons kan ook nie net toekyk hoe ons dorp deur ander mense kom gelei of verwoes word nie.

Om by te voeg. Kyk na onse stadium. Dit lyk aaklig.

Die mense verkoop rond in die hele Kuisebmond. Ons het Kuisebmond in 'n blikkiesdorp omskep.

Laat ons mooi gaan kies!

Om te Wat? S.U. Walvisbaaier

skaplike navorsers wêreldwyd met dieselfde uitdagings worstel, en dat wêreldwye samewerking in dié verband van die grootste belang is.

Hy meen daar sal uit dié vergadering baie sterk inhoud kom wat op die NRF se wêreldvergadering in Indië aanstaande jaar, bespreek sal word. Vanjaar het dit benewens die temas gelykheid en die rol van vroue in die wetenskap, ook oor interdissiplinariteit gegaan Die Voorsitter van die Namibiese Raad vir Navorsing en Strategiese Innovering – Professor André du Pisani, sê die temas, die status en rol van Vroue in Navorsing en die inkorporering van perspektiewe oor die sogenaamde Gender-literatuur binne navorsing, wat op die Wêreldnavorsingsraad se bespreek is verlede week, was van kritieke belang - dit is op twee vlakke hanteer – 'n konseptuele vlak, en ook op

Suidwester mors met Walvisbaai Die suidwestewind het Saterdag behoorlik met Walvisbaai gemors. Een van die leidende spysenieringsondernemings op die hawedorp, Spot-On Catering het 'n reuseverlies gely toe een van die onderneming se markiestente dié middag deur die wind geskep en soos 'n speelding neergewerp en vernietig is.

Glasskerwe en 'n afgebreekte lamppaal op die strandmeer se wandelroete was Sondag die stille getuies van die ontsaglike krag waarmee die wind die tent geskep het. Spot-On het die tent bloot vir die voorsienigheid opgeslaan, aangesien daar heelwat funksies na die einde van die jaar daar sou plaasvind.

Daar was geen funksie tydens die voorval, of enige personeellede in die tent nie. Spot-On verwag nie dat die voorval enigsins sy dienslewering sal beïnvloed nie. Die tent is onherstelbaar beskadig.

Met namib times se rondtes Sondag is daar ook by verskeie sakeondernemings opgemerk dat sakenaamborde deels deur die wind afgeruk is.

In die J.C. Harries Park is reuse boomtakke afgeskeur. In die sakekern is plastiekasdromme van die munisipaliteit omgewaai. 'n Asdrom wat deur die wind aangerol is, het minstens een voertuig beskadig.

By Duin 7 moes daar moue opegerol word om 'n toeristebus oor die spoorlyn te trek nadat dit in sand vasgeval het wat in die sterk wind op die toegangspad tot dié besienswaardigheid gevorm het.

By die Walvisbaai Seiljagklub het die windmeter Saterdagmiddag by tye aan die tone van 36 knope geraak.

'n praktiese vlak, en die doel was om strategieë en meganismes te identifiseer wat die rol en deelname van vroue binne die veld van wetenskaplike navorsing kan bevorder.

Du Pisani sê vervaardigingstegnologie was nóg 'n universele tema waarna daar in diepte gekyk is. Dit het hier nie soseer oor vervaardiging gegaan nie, maar wel oor waar Afrika hom bevind wat betref nuwe vervaardigingstegnologieë, soos byvoorbeeld sogenaamde groen ingenieurswesetegnologie, en groen benaderings tot vervaardiging.

Die afgevaardigdes het ook gekyk na die groot knelpunt, energie, en die uitdagings vir Suider-Afrika en SubSahara-Afrika wat volhoubare energie betref, en nuwe benaderings en perspektiewe in die veld. Prof du Pisani sê energie is een van die groot uitdagings vir nywerheidsontwikeling, en om die ekonomie en die samelewing in stand te hou.

Du Pisani sê die inhou-

delike vlak van bydraes wat rondom die opdragtemas gelewer is, was baie hoog, end it was goed gekonseptualiseer, die agtergrondmateriaal was van hoogstaande gehalte en die leerervaring in terme van die verskillende lande binne Afrika was baie ryk, terwyl die fasilitering ook puik was.

Dr Aldo Stroebel, sê dit was die tweede keer dat SuidAfrika en Namibië op dié vlak saamgewerk het om die streeks-ondersoek vir die Wêreld-Navorsingsraad te reël, wat rakende spesifieke gekose temas konsensus moet bewerkstellig tussen al die wetenskapsrade in die wêreld, wat navorsing befonds.

Hy het ook die vergadering as 'n baie suksesvolle streeksonsultasie bestempel.

Die vergadering was een van ses wêreldwyd.

Al die bevindings, voorstelle en knelpunte sal nou in Indië op die gesamentlike beraad van die Wêreld-navorsingsraad bespreek word.

Stroebel sê konsensus oor die temas is wyd, en dat sulke

gesamentlike geleenthede baie goeie steun bied vir gesamentlike navosing deur Suid-Afrika en Namibië.

Hy sê SA en Namibië werk die afgelope paar jaar reeds baie nou saam op die gebied van navorsing, en dat die werk van hoogstaande gehalte is. Stroebel sê parallel met die uitsette van ander streeks-vergaderings in die wêreld, sal 'n konsensusdokument aanstaande jaar opgestel word, oor interdissiplinêre navorsing en die rol van vroue en gelykheid binne navosring.

Die GRC – 'n relatief nuwe wêreldliggaam – poog om sinergie en fokus op internasionale vlak te bewerkstellig onder navorsingsliggame en befondsers wêreldwyd.

Daar is volgens hom baie sterk fokus op die implimenteerbaarheid op streeksvlak, van besluite en prioriteite binne gesamentlike konsensusdokumente.

Hy sê hulle is intussen opgewonde oor die astronomie-navorsingsleerstoel.

Ministry of Industrialisation big on SME development

Head of MITSD office in Erongo region, Helvi Petrus Mavourlene !Gaёs

The Ministry of Industrialisation, Trade and SME Development (MITSD) hosted the annual commemoration of Africa Industrialisation day on Friday. The ceremony was held at the Kuisebmond Community Hall.

This year's celebration was under the theme: “SMEs for poverty eradication and job creation for women and youth”.

Helvi Petrus, Head of the MITSD Regional office deli-

vered the keynote address and said industrialisation is important for African economies to grow.

Adding as a country Namibia takes the issue of industrialisation serious and

for this very purpose created the Ministry of Industrialisation, Trade and SME Development.

The ministry provides for the much needed instruments and mechanisms to ensure investments, trade and industrial activities flourish.

“The ministry has industrial development programs in place which aims to create positive condi-

tions to promote and grow the SME sector,” said Petrus.

Adding apart from creating a growth environment, the Ministry also supports equipment and machinery support.

A total of 159 SMEs in Erongo Region has already received machinery and equipment support in this way, according to Petrus.

These include machinery and equipment support in the areas of construction and brick-making, automotive repairs, wheel balancing, butchery equipment, mining equipment, charcoal manufacturing, joinery and upholstery.

She said the ministry also has industrial upgrading and modernisation programmes for targeted industries.

In Erongo aqua culture has benefited from these upgrade interventions.

Petrus added that with the feasibility study under the business support services programme, the ministry has assisted three entrepreneurs with the feasibility study in the areas of aquaculture, chlorine, alighting

manufacturing.

“In addition to that, the ministry has also assisted two businesses or rather two entrepreneurs with business plans, technical and market development in the areas of hospitality and crates manufacturing.

To ensure that our SMEs are capacitated the ministry also offers training and with that we have trained 25 entrepreneurs, we have hosted workshops and we also provided mentorship

services that cover various aspects in the areas of human resource management, procurement, bookkeeping, customer care, cost and pricing.”

The ministry also has sights and premises in place and under the “sight and premises” programme.

“We have successfully completed phase 1 of the !Nara Namib Industrial Estates and we are busy with the servicing of the 31 hectares to continue with the second phase

of the same project.

The ministry has also constructed, completed and is currently up and running the Namibia Standards Institution testing centre in Walvis Bay.” She said all of this has been put in place, especially in Erongo Region to ensure that the business SMEs are having a proper environment that would strive and ensure that their business activities prosper.

Bank Windhoek donates to the Walvis Bay SPCA Bank Windhoek's Walvis Bay branch took notice of the current financial dilemma facing the local branch of the Society For The Prevention Of Cruelty To Animals (SPCA).

The Bank took a proactive step towards the problem and donated N$20 000 on Friday which would be utilised for the immediate-term running of the SPCA Walvis Bay. Apart from salaries, the SPCA Walvis Bay has expenses towards water, electricty as well as the day to day running of the kennels for stray pets and to ensure the animals are getting the very best care.

The SPCA Walvis Bay is currently going through a difficult period after all its committee members resigned. It is now solely dependent on support from the SPCA Swakopmund, members of the public and generosity of institutions like Bank Windhoek.

GRN car at Dune 7 raises alarm bells The Government Garage in Windhoek, responsible for all government vehicles, undertook yesterday to investigate this incident where people were spotted at Dune 7 on Sunday having a fun outing.

Although there is nothing wrong with having a good time out, it is actually a criminal offense to do so with an official vehicle.

Government officials are issued with a trip authority which outlines their times, dates, purpose for using the official vehicle and the number (if any) passengers are allowed.

A source at the Government Garage said on Monday he doubts the official under whose care the vehicle is, had the authority to use it for after hours purposes. Using the vehicles for outing such as this, he explained, is unacceptal and could land the official in hot water.

The abuse of Government vehicles is prosecuted under Namibia's Anti Corruption Act, leaving little doubt he was at fault and this official is certain to have some serious trouble.

Sinkhole causes CBD chaos Businesses in the stretch of Rikumba Kandanga Road, between Theo-Ben Gurirab Avenue and Hage Geingob Avenue, in Walvis Bay are concerned over orderly traffic flows and customer numbers in the days to come, after a giant sinkhole appeared in the road on Sunday.

It necessitated the immediate closure of the road for traffic safety. By noon yesterday no works had started yet to open the sinkhole and mend the road, a process that can take a few days, a concerned business owner said on Monday.

The crossing of Rikumbi Kandanga Road and Hage Geingob Avenue was chaotic at times yesterday already, especially during peak traffic hours on mid-day and day end.

Walvis Bay is hit frequently with sinkholes on its street network, caused by the ageing sewer reticulation network. Especially near manholes, the undergroup sewerage pipes rupture and sewage water over time erodes the road's subterranean surface causing giant sinkholes. Although the municipality of Walvis Bay takes a pro-active approach towards upgrading the sewerage network, these sinkholes appear from time to time and can only be mended on a reactive basis.

All set and ready to go for Regional and Local Authority Elections Staff reporter Everything is in place for the Regional and Local Authority Elections on Friday. Special Voting took place yesterday. In terms of Section 98, the officials who will be on duty on election day, including Coordinators, Assistant Coordinators, Returning Officers, Presiding Officers, Polling Officials and the police officers were allowed to vote prior to the voting day.

The ECN says it has recruited about 10 580 election officials in various positions with about 8 354 polling officials who will make up 1 938 teams across the country.

Seafarers who'll be at sea, mine workers who'll be on duty and will not be able to vote in their respective constituencies on Friday, could also apply for special votes, and could then vote yesterday.

The CAN has reiterated that there will be no polling stations at mining sites across the country for the upcoming Regional and Local Authority Elections, the Electoral Commission of Namibia (ECN) has announced.

Mine workers will have to cast their votes at other polling stations in their respective constituencies, according to the ECN. Whereas the citizens could vote anywhere in the

country during the Presidential and National Assembly elections last year (2014), the Regional Councils and Local Authority elections require that all eligible voters vote in the constituency and local authority where they reside ECN Director of Operations, Theo Mujoro confirmed last week that the commission will not provide voting venues at mines. Mujoro says it is

possible that 99 percent of the workers are not registered in the constituency where the mine is. It will be a waste to put up a polling station there.

Political parties fear that all mine workers might not get a chance to vote as some of them are also expected to be at work on Election Day. The management of Langer Heinrich Uranium, Rössing Uranium and Swakop Uranium Husab mine have however promised to make sure all workers get a chance to vote.

According to Professor Paul John Isaak, the Chief Electoral Officer of the ECN of Namibia, the ECN encountered a number of challenges last year; this included not having secured the required vehicles on time and major delays and long queues at many polling stations when the ECN deployed Voter Verification Devices (VVDs) at polling stations across the country.

“The ECN has taken the necessary measures to ensure that there will not be a repeat of delays and long queues in the

forthcoming elections. At this point, I would like to encourage all eligible voters to go out there in numbers and cast their votes. This is the time to elect your local representatives who will represent you at local levels of governance, the Regional Councils or Local Authority level. Finally, Namibians want to see tangible benefits from having voted and that issues such as employment, alleviation of poverty and reduction The Electoral Commission of Namibia is mandated to direct, supervise and control in a fair and impartial manner all elections conducted in terms of the Electoral Act, (Act no. 24 of 1992 as amended) to be an excellent and independent election management institution committed to credible elections. Only when such basic needs of daily bread and butter issues of life are implemented the electorate will believe that people could “eat democracy” and that democracy delivers credible products or through democratic elections.

Any government ought to bring around food to the hungry, proper and affordable housing to the homeless, clinics and hospitals to the sick and safe environment in all neighbourhoods, villages, towns, farms, and cities in all the parts of Namibia.

There-fore, the motto of the ECN is to enable the people through elections to exercise their voice and to demand for development, i.e. your vote is your voice and your voice determines your future.

In short, electoral integrity flourishes under the climate of democracy, economic development and service delivery.”

Voters should remember that they will vote twice on Friday – once for regional councils' election and then for elections for members of the local authorities.

Regional Council Elections The role of the Regional Councils is to spearhead development in the region and be the link between central government and the citizens in the region.

Local Authority Elections Provide elections for the elections of Local Aut-

hority councilors to serve the people in towns and local villages.

The majoritarian or firstpast-the-post electoral system is used during the regional councils' election. This system dictates that the candidate with the most votes wins the seat.

The proportional representation electoral system is used for elections for members of the local authorities. In this system every political party/ association/organisation intending to contest provides a list of its nominated candidates.

Seats are allocated according to the number of votes received Voting using the Electronic Voting Machines is meant to conduct fast, reliable and fair elections in Namibia.

It also maintains voting secrecy and is tamper proof.

At the end of polling, the results are automatically available through the press of a button.

100 Graduates from COSDEF Sharlien Tjambari

The Community Skills Development Foundation (COSDEF) arts and craft centre had its historic first graduation ceremony in Swakopmund recently, with over 100 students graduating from different courses.

The students who completed their certificate qualifications in jewellery making, fashion design, leather making and other.

In his speech, the Chairman of the COSDEF, Nahas Angula said the Institution's arts and craft centre has the main objective of marketing Namibian arts and craft, specifically to the people in Swakopmund, visitors and tourists. “We know that art and craft has a potential of creating jobs and livelihoods to our people. We further believe Swakopmund in particular as a centre of tourism offers opportunities for us to market Namibian art and crafts� said Angula.

The second purpose of the centre is to provide skills training to the members of the community. Angula stressed the centre is there to serve the community at large with outreach programs.

The Topnaar community of the Kuiseb River also had 20 students that graduated from COSDEF.

Busy Bodies Year End Function Busy Bodies Montessori School was recently paid a visit from the Mayor's Office. Brian, from First National Bank, joined our guests as the children sang and entertained them.

The children were given goodies sponsored by First National Bank and then sat down to enjoy delicious food packs sponsored by KFC. Thanks to Brian and First National Bank, the Mayor of Swakopmund and to KFC for making our day so special.

The Busy Bodies Pre-school Class went to Lauberville for the annual school-leavers camp. The children had a blast, swimming, climbing dunes and braaing marshmallows. They had a wonderful time and returned home the next day absolutely exhausted! We wish our school leavers all the best for Grade 1 next year.

The Busy Bodies crew also celebrated the year-end festivities at the Welwitschia Old Age Home (Phase 1). The residents of the old age home each received a packaged gift from each child and were then entertained with a festive nativity play and Christmas carols. Busy Bodies would like to thank Sarel (Shae-Lee's dad) and all our parents for their heart-felt kindness and donations. We are a success yet again thanks to YOU.

Vragmotors bly 'n probleem op Walvisbaai

Madelaine Laubscher

‘n Leser het onlangs woedend gesê dat vragmotors die nuwe nywerheidsgebied ten suide van Narraville terroriseer deur te ry soos hul wil, parkeer voor ingange en ingangsportale en het géén respek vir verkeersreëls of ander padgebruikers nie.

“Die vragmotorbestuurders het absoluut geen respek vir ander padgebruikers nie en stop op geel strepe, voor perseelingange, hekke , deure en hulle gee nie om of ander motoriste kan in of uit beweeg nie. Hulle stop ook sommer aan enige kant van die pad wat 'n gevaar vir ander padgebruikers inhou,” het hy gesê.

Volgens die leser staan van die vragmotors reeds vir meer as twee maande op een plek en ander vir meer as vyf maande sonder dat daar boetes uitgereik word.

Die res van Walvisbaai loop ook deur onder vragmotorbestuurders met swak dissipline, aldus die leser en hy vra dat die verkeersowerheid daadwerklik optree.

Ingevoerde vragmotors staan vir weke en maande aaneen op die hawedorp se strate geparkeer, om te wag vir invoerklarings sodat eienaars dit kan uitvoer. Dit in skrille kontras daarmee dat enige ingevoerde vragmotors binne 72 uur nadat dit die hawehekke verlaat, dit die land moet verlaat.

Andersins is dit ook vragmotors wat oornag in Walvisbaai se swaar nywerheidsgebiede, soms op die spoorwegreserwes wat die vragmotors gevaarlik na aan verbygaande treine laat.

“Wat sou ons doen indien 'n trein met gevaarlike vrag soos brandstof of swawelsuur 'n stilstaande vragmotor tref?”

Die hawe-owerheid, plaaslike verkeersafdeling en TransNamib sal moet saamspan sodat vragmotorbestuurders binne die perke van die wet optree.

Die Walvisbaai verkeersbeamptes was onbereikbaar vir kommentaar.

Swakopmund first ever live streamed motivational talks Sharlien Tjambari

TEDx is a program of local, self-organised events that brings people together to share experiences. At a TEDx event, TED Talks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection.

According to Ipupa Kasheeta, the TEDx Licensee, this was the first ever TEDx event in Swakopmund and at the coast, “I believe we have ideas worth spreading in Namibia and at coastal towns as well and it is through idea sharing where we learn, inspire and uplift our community” said Kasheeta.

According to Kasheeta, they want to transform people's minds, to motivate them, to energise them and to bring people together from diverse backgrounds. Kasheeta said the TEDx event is normally organised through a license that they acquire from the United States of America and that license is valid for a year, “in order for an event like this to happen next year or the year after next year we need to apply for another license again” said Kasheeta.

There was a total number of eight speakers who took on the TEDx Swakopmund platform to

spread their ideas to the local community, continent and global audience at large. Amongst the eight speakers were Johny Smith, CEO of Walvis Bay Corridor Group, Mr Leevy Lee Abrahams, a journalist, Hlengani Mathebula, a former CEO of First National Bank personal banking, a managing executive of ABSA Private Bank and now the Strategy Advisor to the Governor of the South African Reserve Bank, and Pam Miller, the well-known mentor, trainer and businesswomen in Swakopmund was also amongst the local speakers. The event was highly attended with over 80 people and was live streamed. During the event there was a Musical performance by Alessandro Alessandroni, an Italian musician who plays multiple instruments including a guitar and piano and composed over 40 film scores and countless library music. TEDx is a non-profit organisation.

Get your life back Narcotics Anonymous meets every Thursday at 18:30 at the Roman Catholic Church Swakopmund.
