Walvis Bay municipality urged to end “residencies” at dump site
Residents of Walvis Bay were left furious on Saturday by this thick, black and smelly column of smoke that covered large swaths of the town’s southern parts (pictured right). The smoke was caused by a fire at the tire pit at the Walvis Bay dump site. People residing at the waste disposal site accidentally set the tire alight. “This is becoming unacceptable. People are not allowed to reside at the waste disposal site. Recently we had a fire raging deep below the surface of the waste disposal site, with smelly smoke covering the entire town for several days on end. The fire at the tire pit should be the last”, angry residents told the Namib Times. Adding there is a by-law in place that only allows people on the waste disposal site between sunrise and sunset of every day. “Why don’t the municipality of Walvis Bay and the Namibian Police set feet down on the matter. Any person caught at the waste disposal site after sunset and before sunrise is technically committing an offense of trespassing. The should be arrested and charged”, said one resident who was heavily inconvenienced by both fires in recent weeks. Concluded this resident: “We have laws, regulations and by-laws, but if we don’t enforce it, it leads to incidents such. Not only does it pose a danger to the people residing at the dump site, but it is a public health hazard”.

Only second dose Covid-19 vaccines now administered Only the second dose of the CoviShield Covid-19 vaccines are now administered in Walvis Bay. The town’s available supply of the AstraZeneca Covid-19 vaccines have reached a point where there are only enough vaccines left to administer the second dose of people who received their first doses earlier this year. The Sinopharm Covid vaccine remains available for first doses. This confirmed yesterday by the Director of Health in Erongo, Anna Jonas. Residents in Walvis Bay complained in recent days that queues at the vaccination point of the Ministry of Health and Social Services at the Welwitschia Private Hospital is long. Waiting periods are several hours and that people are not social distancing at these vaccination points.

Meatco to cut out middlemen in its beef export channels Namibia's state-owned meat corporation, Meatco, is streamlining its beef export channels, and will as far as practical possible cut out middlemen and utilise the services of the Namibian Ports Authorit, Namport, instead. Meatco's beef exports are taking place through the port of Walvis Bay. Namibian beef is exported to China, the United States, European Union, Norway, the United Kingdom and very soon the first major exports will go to Ghana and the Congo Brazzaville. Meatco's Manager: Stakeholder Relations and Corporate Communications, Rosa Tobias, confirmed this yesterday. Namib Times posed questions to Tobias regarding a memorandum of understanding signed between Namport and Meatco on 18 June. Tobias pointed out the relations between Meatco and
Namport is firm, but that the revised strategy, to streamline export channels, necessitated the signing of a new memorandum of understanding. A total of 8 959 tons of beef was exported through the port of Walvis Bay in 2019/ 20. The largest portion of the exports were to China (37,6 %), followed by Norway (34,8 %), European Union (17,6 %) and the United Kingdom (6,9 %) The first beef exported to the United States was during the first quarter of 2020, and expectations for growth in this market is immense, as North Americans rely heavily on beef for protein intake. The two African mar-
kets are also a major step ahead for Namibian beef exports. To put Namibia's beef production market in perspective: the country produced close to 50 000 tons of beef in 2019/20. Elias Mwenyo, Namport's Acting Executive: Commercial Services, this week in a statement said Namport is geared to facilitate beef exports, both existing and future volumes. Direct shipping lines between the port of Walvis Bay ensures shorter delivery times. Namport's CEO, Andrew Kanime echoed this and said the Namport is committed to provide a seamless, efficient and costeffective export operation.
The first consignment of Namibian beef to the United States was shipped during the first quarter of 2020. The Minister of Trade Relations and Cooperation, Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah, witnessed the first export consignment leaving Meatco’s production plant in Windhoek
Beef exports also diversifies the range of exports that takes place through the port of Walvis Bay and enhances the port's competitiveness.

Last 290 “fired” fishermen finally re-employed...... The last 290 fishermen out of approximately 1 000 who lost their jobs in the fishing industry since an illegal strike in 2015 are employed now, thanks to a joint effort by the private sector, the Ministry of Fisheries and Marine Resources and the Ministry of Labour. The fishermen were appointed by Hangana Seafood Processors as permanent workers with the same benefit as existing employees. Hangana currently employs 1 451 people, and this figure will rise to 1 741, according to the company's Managing Director, Mr Herman Theron. Theron added continued investment in infrastructure will ensure more employment opportunities in the foreseeable future and the target is to 2 000 people by 2025. The company is investing N$360 million in a new fish processing plant in Walvis Bay and a further investment of N$100 million in the company's abalone production facility at Lüderitz. The Minister of Fisheries and Marine Resources Derek Klazen welcomed the em-
ployment of the fishermen by Hangana Seafood Processors. The company has been awarded an additional fish quota to facilitate the employment process. The labour minister, Uutoni Nujoma, expressed satisfaction with the basic conditions of employment of the fishermen affected. The Minister used the opportunity to urge the fishermen not to engage in labour action that falls beyond the ambit of labour legislation. Their dismissal several years ago was as a result of an illegal strike. The President of the Namibian Fishing Industries and Fishermen Workers Union, Daniel Imbili, expressed relief that the saga is finally over, and that normality can now return to the affected fishermen and their families.

Rugby dreams shattered Rudi Bowe
The dreams of the national under 20 rugby players who have represented the country in Rugby Africa under 2 0 Barthés tournament in Nairobi, Kenya were shattered after the Namibian Rugby Union (NRU) on Monday 21 June withdrew the team from the tournament. The NRU originally withdrew the team from the tournament due to the government's Covid-19 regulations and its ban on contact sport, which was announced on 4 June. The Chief Executive Officer of the Namibia Rugby Union, Theo Grünewald said that the team went into a bio-secure bubble and continued to train and prepare for the tournament over the past week, but the NRU has to withdraw the national under 20 rugby team from the u20 Barthes Cup in Nairobi, Kenya after the 12 players being struck by Covid-19. Grünewald said “The team were supposed to fly out on Sunday afternoon, but we had to cancel at the last minute after 12 members tested positive for Covid-19 when we received the results last Saturday evening. Grünewald said that the NRU did everything possible to try to make the tour to Kenya to qualify for the World Rugby's Under 20 Trophy tournament as the winner of the Barthes tournament serves as Rugby Africa's under 20
qualifying tournament. “We earlier had six positive Covid cases, so we had to bring in new players, but when we had 12 new confirmed cases on Saturday evening, it was just too much, and we had no choice but to withdraw,” Grünewald said. According to Grünewald the NRU really tried everything to go to Kenya, and it's a big disappointment for the players that are well prepared and confident to reclaim the trophy lost to Kenya in 2019. “Understandably, this news will come as great disappointment to all involved in rugby, especially our players. I wish to urge all our players to continue with strength and conditioning training and to see to it that their fitness levels remain on a level that is required to represent Namibia on the international stage” Grünewald said. The Barthes tournament serves as Rugby Africa's u.20 championship, with the winner normally qualifying for World Rugby's U.20 Trophy tournament.

History for Rössing Marathon History was made last weekend when more than 300 athletes took part in the 30th Rössing Marathon - which was for the first time virtually accessible due to Covid-19.
The organizers initially wanted to invite only a select group of elite athletes to the marathon in Swakopmund, but due to the regulations and the current levels of the Covid pandemic it was not possible. Therefore, this year's marathon was only open to runners anywhere in Namibia. Jeremiah Shaliaxwe from Windhoek who participated in his first Rössing marathon won the men's open in two hours 19 minutes 59 seconds with Alina Armas-Namupala the winner of the women's open for her sixth Rössing marathon title in a time of two hours 51minutes and 1 seconds. Both winners will receive N$10,000 in prize money and a development bonus of N $ 20,000 for any sports-related expenses. The Liaison Head of Rössing Uranium Daylight Ekandjo said that a total of N $ 90 000 will be paid out to the winners in the various categories. Ekandjo said "We are indeed proud of every athlete who was brave enough to take part and complete the marathon.” "We remain hopeful that the Rössing marathon will be able to Jeremiah Shaliaxwe, the newly crowned Alina Armas-Namupala now boasts six victories in the Rössing Marathon.
