Namport workers strike

Kop-aan-kop botsing eis sewe lewens

Piquet Jacobs An unexpected and illegal strike at Namport's Container Terminal operations by employees is causing havoc in the port and resulted in approximately 5 000 containers not being able to be moved yesterday.

Namport held a media briefing yesterday to clarify questions surrounding the situation in the port after workers downed tools before lunch on Wednesday. More than 100 Namport employees went on strike and caused the entire Container Terminal's operations department to cease functioning. The department is responsible for the loading of containers from vessels and moving it to terminals and also from the terminals onto trucks.

Since workers ceased to operate no containers have been moved and this can amount to huge financial losses for Namport and companies that depend on the prompt delivery of containers.

Workers resolved to strike in protest to a newly ANGRY: Rubicon Security workers resolved to go on strike in order to force management to address the implemented method of handling containers in unbearable situations they have to endure. the yard. The new system was apparently implemented to improve efficiency levels at the Port of Walvis Bay, as well as the working relationship between workers and their supervisors.

We are not baboons!

Training levy comes into force in April Jade McClune Companies with a yearly payroll of N$1 million or more have until 27 February to register for the payment of a compulsory monthly Vocational Education Training (VET) levy.

Following drawn-out consultations, the final notice by the Minister of Education to impose the 1% VET levy was gazetted on 27 January.

The monthly levy is set at one percent of the payroll of all companies that fall in this category.

Cash-strapped municipalities and state-owned enterprises (parastatals) will not be exempted.

Announcing the implementation of the levy on Tuesday, Ms Ester Nghipondoka, the acting Chief Executive of the Namibia Training Authority (NTA), called on “all eligible Continues on page 2

After a long and bitter dispute between workers and the management of Rubicon Security in Swakopmund, 40 security guards decided on Thursday to undertake immediate strike action to back up their demands.

The situation has become unbearable and the guards are subjected to racism and discrimination at their workplace on a daily basis, said Mr Willem Antsino, a shop steward of the Namibian Independent Security Union (NISU). The security guards are outraged that the coastal area manager, Mr Johan Viljoen, apparently resorted to beating workers with a stick, named 'Frikkie', and calling them 'baboons'.

The guards are accusing Viljoen of discriminating against black workers and they are demanding his immediate dismissal. At the scene of the strike the Namib Times asked to speak to some of the workers who were allegedly beaten, but the strikers said that after the abuse came to light several of the affected security guards were dismissed from duty. Only one worker at the demonstration yesterday confirmed that he had been beaten with the stick.

The strikers are angry about practices they

consider to be downright discriminatory: “We are Property in treated as stupid and we are monitored,” while perspective white workers get favourable treatment, they alleged. They further charged that “white male employees are allowed to use the toilet inside" the company offices, but black workers are not allowed to use that facility. Viljoen apparently told them to go and urinate outside.

The strikers claim that the manager referred to them as “baboons” and had threatened them. “We are not wild animals that must stay in the bushes”, Page 15 the strikers said in their petition. They accuse Rubicon Security of “racism, discrimination, Kashela’s moment intimidation, character assassination and of truth apartheid” practices. “If you refer to black workers as baboons, how do you refer to the same black Namibian leadership and the president?” they asked.

Namport workers strike Continued from page 1

Bisey /Uirab the Chief Executive Officer of Namport pointed out that the Port Authority consulted with its Human Resources staff, shop stewards, Labour Commissioner's office and the Regional Co-ordinator of NATAU, and that they were all in agreement that the strike was illegal and unsanctioned. According to him the workers involved in the strike acknowledged that their actions are illegal and therefore were issued with a request to return to work. The Container Terminal staff denied this request and ceased all operations. The Break-bulk operations, security and marine services remain unaffected by the strike, and operations in these departments continue as normal.

Namport was in constant contact with vessels scheduled to offload cargoes in the port in order to ensure that appropriate alternative arrangements could be made under the unfortunate circumstances.

“Namport Management will make alternative arrangements and implement remedies to this effect shortly and this will be communicated within the coming hours. We regret the impact that this has on our customers and their respective services and operations and calls for understanding whilst we deal with the unexpected and unfortunate action”, said /Uirab who also pointed out that Namport has certain laws and policies, and all issues are expected to be discussed within these guidelines.

Asked for comment yesterday afternoon, Mr John Uushona of NATAU said that they were trying to assess the situation at the port and it appeared to him that workers, who were not directly affected, were also joining in the industrial action and that the strike action was escalating. He said that the Union was engaged in intense discussions with the workers and the company and could not answer all the questions, as the situation was changing rapidly. It is expected that NATAU will call a press conference today (Friday) to address questions related to the strike.

We are not baboons!

Vineta, Swakopmund, the strikers said that they reject the findings of a “non-official hearing” that took place on 15 January 2014. “We don't agree with what is written in the statement… as there is no official letter and signatures of the union secretary and the chairman…” The guards say that they also refused to undergo a lie detector test, because they want the test to be conducted by an independent company: “We wanted a hearing to be held where witnesses should be presented and an outside party to represent us officially.”

“We hereby inform all striking employees that they are acting illegally and in contravention with their employment agreements.

Employees are requested to return to work with immediate effect.

Failure to do so will lead to disciplinary action, which will jeopardise your further employment with Rubicon,” directors of Rubicon, Messrs Martin van den Berg and Christo Groenewald, said in a brief statement sent from the company headquarters in Tsumeb and read out by one of the managers, Mr Kruger.

Kruger declined to make any further comment regarding the allegations. In reaction to the directors' statement, the workers said that Rubicon had acted illegally in the first place by discriminating against them and therefore they had no choice but to undertake impromptu strike action. “We cannot use these dark

Training levy comes into force in April Continued from page 1 employers to embrace the vocational and educational training levy with a sense of ownership towards establishing a reliable source of financing for technical and vocational education and training in our country".

She said the levy is in line with “our objectives to reduce income inequality, to fight poverty, to enhance economic competitiveness, to support quality education and growing our manufacturing industry.”

The NTA will collect the levy as part of the National Training Fund. Collectors and inspectors will be sent out to ensure that companies pay up. Those that do not comply will be penalised with 10% interest on overdue payments.

Registration started on Monday.

Among other details, employers have to submit proof of their type of business, the number of employees and tax obligations. Registration can be done on the NTA's website and a “customer care centre” has also been set up to assist.

The implementation of the levy was delayed several times since the Act came into force in 2008. After extensive consultations the threshold was raised from N$350 000 to N$1 million and the amount reduced from 1.5% to 1% of the payroll. An NTA official explained yesterday that if employers can prove that they trained their staff they can apply for a 50% rebate on the levy.

In terms of the VET Act of 2008 the NTA is also tasked with taking over the administration of seven Vocational Training Centres (VTCs) that previously resorted under the Ministry of Education and will soon take over full responsibility for funding all vocational training institutes from the Namibia Students Assistance Fund (NSFAF).

Excluded from paying the VET levy are the organs of the State, regional councils, charities, non-profit organisations and faith groups. The training levy comes into effect on 1 April 2014.

The NTA will conduct a number of meetings in the Erongo region within the next two weeks to facilitate the process.

The Ministry of Education will continue funding vocational training students as before, but the funds would in future be directed through the NTA and not the NSFAF. Sources with knowledge of the details said that they are "still working on the precise modalities of how and when to transfer the administration of the funds to the NTA", but this is likely to happen soon. Vocational students should not be concerned by the change, as they will receive their funds as before.

and dirty toilets. We are not being treated like human beings.”

The guards further reported that they rarely get their full monthly wages. Security workers at the company earn N$60 per 12 hour shift (N$5/hour), but fees are also deducted for the uniforms, as well as N$90 penalties for sleeping on duty, or failing to attend.

“We have a 12-hour working day, we get no overtime payments, no public holidays or Sunday overtime,” one said. “We rarely even have time to be with our families, because we are always working.”

Asked to comment on the strike, an official of the Ministry of Labour in Swakopmund said, “We don't know anything about this.” The official did not want to go on record, but said the security workers had reported their case to the Labour Advisory Council and not the Labour Commissioner. “They never brought their case to the ministry and we cannot involve ourselves until the affected parties inform us.”

Later on Thursday morning, Mr Antsino informed this newspaper that the workers had tried to submit relevant documents outlining their grievances to the Labour Commissioner's office, but they were rejected by officials, who refused to attend to the case, saying that the workers "have undertaken illegal strike action".

Education director address teachers Mavourlene Gaes The Director of Education Mr John /Awaseb addressed a two-day annual meeting with heads of department and principals from different schools in the Erongo Region yesterday at the Swakopmund Primary school.

The Director expressed his gratitude to the teachers in the Erongo Region on their excellent performance, regarding the Grade 12 results for 2013. “We appreciate all your efforts and hard work and will render support whenever possible, for you to maintain and improve on these results,” he said.

However, regarding the grade 10 results, Mr /Awaseb said the schools have dismally failed the children and he called on the school board to assist and bring the parents back to schools.

Mr /Awarab also touched on the topic of the illegal distribution of stationery lists, to parents by primary school teachers. He says the government has provided all primary schools, with the Universal Primary Education grant (UPE), and also bought stationery for them. Teachers were urged to use the UPE funds to buy more stationery, where needed. He also expressed that many of the

store rooms at schools are full of stationery, but parents are still asked to buy stationery.

“I'm sending the staff and inspectors to take stock of stationery at schools…” he warned.

One of the other issues he addressed related to the importance of teaching African languages in schools, especially in Swakopmund.

Learners are, according to the Director, being discouraged from taking up their mother tongue at school”, as the teachers who are appointed to teach African languages are often re- assigned to other subjects. “If principals do not stop their attitude towards these (indigenous) languages, then we will take unilateral decisions and implement them at schools and control them from the regional office. In conclusion, Mr /Awaseb said the performance improvement strategy of schools must be a collaborative activity shared by school management, teachers, learners and parents.

Mayor warns against housing scam in Walvis

EPZ companies not performing to expectation Jade McClune

Bernabé Blaauw Walvis Bay Mayor, Uilika Nambahu, warned the residents of the harbour town not to be caught unawares by people who are running a housing scam under the guise of the Properties Section of the Municipality of Walvis Bay. The Mayor made this statement during the first Ordinary Council meeting for 2014 that was held in the Kuisebmond Council Chambers on Tuesday evening. For the first time the Governor of the Erongo Region, Mr Cleophas K Mutjavikua delivered his Annual Address after the completion of the Council meeting.

Mayor Nambahu started her address by saying that 2014 is a great year, brimming with many possibilities and opportunities while at the same time it could also be a very challenging year as it is one year closer to the Millennium Development Goals (MDG) targets of 2015 while at the same time there are fifteen years left before Government's ambitious Vision 2030.

She said that while success stories are being recorded on many fronts such as education and training, employment creation, literacy, poverty eradication, smart partnerships and international cooperation to mention but only a few, several obstacles have refused to give our nation the right of way, in that these obstacles have shown a rare form of stubbornness and continued to hamper development.

However, she said, their resolve as a Council and all their associates have always been to face these challenges head-on and keep alive a resolve to be resilient even in the face of outright opposition. To this end, they must redouble their efforts towards the provision of shelter and other basic human needs as a matter of urgency.

She also said that she believes the town's residents have all the faith in what they can do together, that is why they have exercised Job-like patience for the fulfill-ment of all Council's promises to them.

Mayor Nambahu then announced that, "Sadly, we have of late uncovered, rather to our surprise that there are people within our City who are making rounds registering people for what is alleged to be a housing scheme aimed at placing people in show houses or requesting people in need of houses to register themselves. These criminally minded individuals are doing this

under the guise that they represent the Municipality of Walvis Bay's Properties Section. It is further being said that in registering, members of the community are guaranteed a dwelling when the show houses will ultimately be built. To this, I wish to say the following: While we appreciate the urgency in the need for the provision of housing, to date, the Municipality of Walvis Bay has not appointed anyone to conduct a process of registering people in need of housing. Therefore, I would like to request whoever is involved in this practice to desist from it altogether while I request the community to avail to us further information so that we can pass such information to law enforcement agents and at the same time request that no one should register themselves in such dubious schemes." She continued her speech by saying that she wants to place on record her greatest regret at the loss of life and property as a result of a shack fire that occurred the previous night in Kuisebmond and noted that this is indeed a great loss to all and a constant reminder of the dire living conditions of our people and the urgency needed to deliver adequate and appropriate shelter to them.

In this regard, she offered her and Council's heartfelt and deepest sym-pathy and condolences to the bereaved family.

Me Nambahu reiterated the Council's stance on supporting, consolidating and initiating Public Private Partnerships aimed at fast-tracking meaningful development, prosperity generation and quality of life advancements. In this regard, she concluded, "we remain open to new ideas and creative solutions aimed at solving and mitigating our city's current and future challenges. We extend our hand to you and seek your involvement in joining us to make Walvis Bay a City, second to None."

Only one agenda item was dealt with, namely the rephrasing of a Council resolution and after the Governor's address the open meeting was adjourned, followed by a closed "Council-inCommittee" meeting.

The majority of companies that were awarded EPZ status in Namibia failed to deliver on the promise of wealth and job-creation.

Namibia needs to review its EPZ policies, Trade and Industry Minister Calle Schlettwein said before his departure for a trade summit in Bangalore India, last week. “We found that it is necessary to have a relook into our investment attractive-ness and our incentive package, so that we remain an attractive investor zone”, he said in an interview with NBC News.

“Taking the basic criteria of value addition, manufacturing, job-creation and wealth-creation as the principal yardsticks against which the scheme was measured, the outcome was that it worked fine for only a very few limited EPZ set-ups. The majority of them did not fulfil the criteria of adding significant numbers of jobs, in adding value or in creating wealth,” Minister Schlettwein said.

Minister Schlettwein said that government had appointed a consultant, Investment Consulting Associates, to help “with the study to evaluate how successful the EPZ scheme was”. In the minister's view the EPZ scheme did not deliver as expected. EPZ companies enjoy major advantages. They do not pay corporate income taxes, nor stamp or transfer duties, nor import duties or valueadded tax (VAT) on machinery, equipment and raw materials used for manufacturing.

NBC News reported him as saying access to markets is still heavily skewed in favour of South African industries that produce consumerready products. The government's economic policies, including the “growth at home” economic strategy “are aimed at accelerating industrialisation,” he said, "with an emphasis on commodity-based industrialisation in order to enable our business community to - in a competitive manner produce consumer-ready goods that are trade-able.”

In September last year Schlettwein has warned that companies with EPZstatus who do not deliver could risk losing their EPZ tax incentives: “We have realised that only a few of these companies have in fact managed to live up to our expectations of building production capacity, transferring skills and job creation.”

The EPZ scheme was first introduced in 1996, partly to lure foreign investment by offering major tax concessions to export-oriented manufacturers. Ostensibly the aim of offering major tax breaks was to secure a transfer of technology and inflow of investment to Namibia, as well as local job-creation and skills transfer.

Firms with EPZ status are allowed to export their capital and profits, “while enjoying freedom from exchange controls and the holding of foreign currency accounts at local banks”.

They are liable to pay only a “retention tax” on declared dividends for nonresident shareholders (10%) and personal income tax deducted from their employees' wages.

Fire claims life Deputy Police Commissioner Otillie Kashuupulwa confirmed that a fire claimed the life of Annalie Ganases (44) in the early hours of Tuesday morning in Kuisebmond. The flames also devoured more than fifteen shacks. Police cordoned off the area and removed the remains of the deceased after fire fighters contained the blaze which prevailed on a premises at Erf 1019 (house no 26) in Sardyn street. Charmaine Gowases (19) who lives across the street was amongst the first persons at the scene.

She recounted to the newspapers how she saw the deceased arriving earlier on and entering her shack. “I saw the smoke but at first thought it was fog. I only realised that the shacks were burning when I saw the flames and heard the lady who was trapped by the fire shouting for help.” recounted Gowases who rushed over and alerted the residents living on three adjacent properties about the danger.

According to bystanders at the scene the fire apparently broke out at approximately 1:30. The flames spread rapidly and left more than twenty five persons homeless in the blink of an eye before the fire brigade arrived at the scene and managed to suppress the flames by 3:00. The cause of the fire is not yet known.

31 JANUARY 2014 accused is still at large.

Woman who bit man's penis tells her side Jade McClune The Arandis policewoman and her partner who stand accused of viciously assaulting a resident at Arandis last week appeared before the Magistrate's Court in Swakopmund on Thursday to plea for bail.

Lisa Gowases (33) and Leon Goseb (44) were in the dock this week to face charges related to the alleged assault. Gowases, who does not deny that she bit the complainant's penis, was taken into custody on Thursday 23 January. Following more than a week in custody, both Gowases and Goseb looked dishevelled and visibly distressed in the witness box yesterday.

Gowases told the court that she has police work that urgently needs to be completed as well as childcare duties to attend to, but both Gowases and her partner, Goseb, were denied bail on the grounds that the police investigation is still ongoing and there is a risk the accused may interfere with state witnesses.

In an exclusive interview with the Namib Times, one of the accused, Lisa Gowases claimed she was defamed by the national papers, who she said alleged that she wilfully bit the man.

Speaking to a reporter at the end of the hearing yesterday, the policewoman said that an

Oshiwambo-speaking man had attempted to rape her on her way home in Arandis on that night.

On the Wednesday in question, she and her husband were making their way home after having a few beers at a local tavern. The man had called her over and asked if she would like to have sex with him.

She says he offered her N$20. She became very angry and asked if that was the only reason he had called her, then walked off.

That was when the man started to attack her and beat her with a baton on the back of her head, she said.

According to Gowases, she fell unconscious from the blows and when she came to, the man was sitting on top of her with his penis in her mouth. “That was when I bit him”, she says.

“Then my husband came and gave him a good hiding with the baton.” The case was postponed to 4 March 2014 for further investigation.

Father charged with raping daughter acquitted Jade McClune In an unexpected turn of events a 43-year old man charged with raping his own daughter over a period of seven years, and consequently impregnating her, was found not guilty in the Regional Court in Swakopmund on Friday.

To all appearances the evidence was stacked heavily against Joseph Kadhila Johannes, given that there were at least six witnesses who came to testify in court in support of the alleged victim.

Johannes was first arrested in March 2010 on the grounds that he had unlawful and intentional sexual intercourse with his daughter between the years 2000 and 2007 at or near Swakopmund.

The complainant is related to him by blood. He was subsequently charged with rape and incest.

The detail of the charges included “inserting penis into vagina… applying

physical force… and threatening by word or conduct to stop supporting the complainant financially”, but the case dragged on for a number of years and in August 2012 Johannes, who resides at Haloli Piggery Farm, around 70km from Tsumeb, was released on bail of N$8 000.

The alleged victim, a student residing in Mondesa, Swakopmund, alleged that she became pregnant as a result of the incestuous relationship, but the defendant vehemently denied being responsible for the pregnancy.

The court also saw a series of impassioned handwritten letters sent to the young woman.

“Please my darling, I am ready to come to

you please my darling, give me a green light.”

It is understood that in one of the letters the author proclaims his love for the young woman and that she strongly resembles her mother.

Johannes denied that he was the author of the letters.

Forensic expert, Dr Paul Ludik, who is the director of the National Forensics Science Institute, was called in to examine the handwritten “love letters”.

He compared these to a sample produced by Johannes in court and later testified that “some similarities in elements of style and execution were found when comparing Exhibit A (the letters) with Exhibits B to I (sam-

ples)” of Johannes' handwriting.

Dr Ludik testified that Johannes “could not be excluded as the writer of these letters,” but he could only make “limited inferences” given the limited nature of the samples and the instructions given to the forensics department.

Johannes was eventually found “not guilty” last week on the grounds of insufficient evidence. In criminal trials the court must establish the guilt of an accused person beyond any reasonably doubt before finding them guilty, whereas civil cases are decided on the balance of probability.

Nghimtina wins defamation case The Windhoek High Court awarded damages worth N$ 60 000 to the Minister of Works and Transport for defamation caused by a July 2010 article published by Informante.

In his verdict Judge Collins Parker said that former Informante Editor Max Hamata rushed to publish the defamatory article for fear the story would be carried in other media after his reporters failed to get a comment from Nghimtina. Parker further ruled that Hamata failed to test the accuracy of the information and failed in providing a balanced story and to find out why an unnamed source wanted the story to be published. The judge concluded that Hamata should have driven to Nghimtina's office for his comment after reporters, Faith Sankwasa and Patience Nyangove failed to get the Minister's comment. Sankwasa apparently called Nghimtina and left two voice messages to which there was no reply. Hamata then sent Nyangove to the Minister's office and when she got lost he decided to go ahead and published the article. TrustCo, Hamata and Free Press Printers will have to pay N$60 000 in damages as well as Nghimtina's legal costs. The defamation award resulted from a July 2010 article in Informante titled “ Nghimtina hijacks rural power plan to pamper in-law”.

Judge Liebenberg to preside over High profile cases Judge Christie Liebenberg is set to handle two prominent cases in the Windhoek High Court in September 2014.

Judge President Petrus Damaseb allocated the N$ 70 million dollar fraud case, involving Esmerelda Majiedt, Daniel de Jesus, Calvin and Gerald Bezuidenhout, James Wilson and Louise Isaacs, to Judge Liebenberg. The accused would plead on 16 September and trial would run for three days until 19 September before being scheduled to resume on further dates in 2014. Judge Liebenberg would also preside over the trial of two American nationals, charged with the January 2011 murder of Namibian citizen, Andre Heckmair. Marcus Thomas and Kevin Townsend will be asked to plead on 29 September should the last pre-trial hearing slated for 19 June clears all pre-trial requirements. Thomas and Townsend were arrested on 17 January 2011 for possessing drugs and a firearm before the police added the charge of murder over the point-blank shooting of Heckmair to death in the Klein Windhoek residential area.

Minimum wages and employment conditions in construction industry The Construction Industries Federation of Namibia (CIF) and the Metal and Allied Namibian Workers Union (MANWU) emphasises the importance of adhering to minimum employment conditions in the construction industry, as promulgated in Government Gazette No. 5372, Government Notice No. 334, of 24 December 2013.

After the CIF and MANWU had reached an agreement seven months prior, the collective agreement was gazetted on 24 December 2013 under Section 71(5) of the Labour Act, 2007 (Act No. 11 of 2007). The CIF and MANWU had agreed on an implementation date of 15 September 2013 which is also highlighted in the Government Gazette. The promulgated collective agreement covers minimum wages for labourers and different categories of skilled and semi-skilled artisans, health and safety standards, minimum protective clothing, minimum productivity levels, living away allowances and service allowance.

The Government Gazette thus stipulates the minimum wage requirements in Namibia's construction industry. Of immediate relevance to the industry is the adjustment to the minimum wages, which are to be increased by 9% for the first year and 9.5% for the subsequent year.

The increase for the first year (9%) will be applicable from 15 September 2013 until 31 May 2014.

For the subsequent year the increase (9.5%) will be applicable from 1 June 2014 - 31 May 2015.

Changes to the previous collective agreement also include an adjustment of the Service Allowance

from 120 hours to 144 hours. This allowance will be calculated pro-rata for each fully worked month that the employee was in service during that specific year. This now also has become effective as from 15 September 2013.

The wage increase was higher than in previous years, which was then 7.5% and 8%, respectively.

With the simultaneous adjustment to the Service Allowance and taking into consideration an inflation rate, wages have effectively increased in real terms.

Housing and medical services had also been key points on the agenda; and MANWU's demands included a housing allowance as well as medical insurance. However, the CIF, despite recognising the need, were more inclined to see these issues addressed at a national level. At the same time, it was agreed between the two negotiating parties that a Task Force would be established to address issues affecting workers in the industry.

Now that the Collective Agreement is gazetted and effectively becomes law and therefore is relevant to the industry as a whole, the CIF and MANWU will meet regularly to discuss matters affecting workers in the construction sector.

Baerbel Kirchner, Consul-

ting General Manager of the CIF emphasises: “ It is critical that all contractors bona fide Namibian and foreign companies - in Namibia's construction industry strive towards adherence of all laws, including minimum wage and employment conditions.

“It is in everybody's interest that the minimum wages are being paid across the industry, and that optimal work conditions are maintained. This will ensure the avoidance of costs differentiation to the detriment of workers in the industry and would help the industry in getting closer to a more equal playing field.

“Enforcement of minimum employment conditions by the authorities is also critical. Construction sites must be visited regularly.

It is therefore important that the capacity of the labour inspectorate will be enhanced; and that inspectors also acquaint themselves with the requirements as reflected in Government Gazette No. 5372.”

Justina Jonas, General Secretary of MANWU says: “We note that many Namibians are now engaging their businesses in the construction industry. We want to ensure that construction workers are paid rightful wages and decent conditions of employment

are maintained. A serious call to the Government is to ensure not to give tenders to employers who are not complying with the Labour laws, as per the President's statement. We are still witnessing companies given tenders even though they are known not to comply with the national labour laws.

“Paying a construction employee a rightful wage will assist to alleviate poverty within our society, but not only to alleviate poverty, but to assist these groups of employees to afford the basic needs of life.

“We also appeal to the companies as well as Government who give tenders to the contractors and all individuals who have their houses renovated, to ensure that appointed contractors or subcontractors are paying their workers as per the Government Gazette.”

Africa must remove trade barriers, says minister Jade McClune The Minister of Trade and Industry says there is a pressing need to remove free trade barriers between African states and it is necessary to prepare for a continental free trade area (FTA). The African Union has set the provisional date of 2017 for the setting up of an Africa-wide FTA.

Minister Calle Schlettwein expressed his concern over the slow pace of negotiations surrounding the FTA to more than 200 regional delegates attending the 9th session of the Tripartite Trade Negotiations Forum (TTNF), which started in Walvis Bay on Tuesday. The delegates represent three regional economic communities: the Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA), the East African Community (EAC) and the Southern African Development Community (SADC) in the current negotiations.

The COMESA-EAC-SADC Free Trade Area is scheduled to be launched this year. The TTNF is tasked with the technical negotiations to establish the FTA among the three regional communities. The envisaged FTA will incorporate 26 countries, around 600 million people and a GDP (Gross Domestic Product) of an estimated 10 trillion U.S. dollars.

“Noting that the June 2014 deadline of concluding phase one of the tripartheid free trade agreement negotiations is just around the corner, I'm afraid little time is left to conclude the tariff offer negotiations, as well as outstanding work on the technical groups, in particular, on trade remedies and disputes settlements,” Minister Schlettwein

said.

“We have to act fast or risk being left behind. The 21st century trade agenda is increasingly becoming more complex and this requires new thinking and solutions,” said the Governor of the Erongo region, Mr Cleophas Mutjavikua, who delivered the speech on behalf of the Minister of Trade.

In his speech Minister Schlettwein, who is currently attending a three-day trade summit in Bangalore, India, called on the regional delegates to renew their efforts to conclude the preliminary (phase one) negotiations within the proposed time frame. Phase one of the three-way negotiations in Walvis Bay this week is geared towards harmonising trade and customs policies, as well as infrastructure development programmes between the three regional economic areas, with the wider aim of strengthening economic integration on the continent.

Meanwhile, speaking from the AU headquarters in Ethiopia, the AU Commissioner for Trade and Industry, Fatima Acyl, was quoted on Tuesday, as saying that intra-continental trade currently amounts to only 12% and the AU wants to boost that to 50% by the year 2063. Negotiations for the Africawide FTAare set to start next year.

“Turkey decided to make contact through the Navy as safety issues on sea are regarded as of huge importance and it is part of a UN commit-ment. The ships, which will be arriving in May represents a high level of Turkish technology and will provide an opportunity to introduce the equipment on board of the vessels.

The relationship will also give opportunities for an exchange of skills and various

programs, and create a social connection between the two countries, “people to people contact. We all look forward to grow the relationship between Turkey and Namibia” said Mr Piri.

LETTERS

The views and opinions expressed on this page are not necessarily those of the Namib Times. We do encourage and value the participation of our readers, but we cannot publish any libellous letters.

Die sienings en menings wat op die blad verskyn is nie noodwendig die van die Namib Times nie. Hoewel ons die deelname van ons lesers op die forum aanmoedig en waardeer, kan ons nie lasterlike briewe publiseer nie.

Op soek na antwoorde Ons begin sommer met die Ombudsman Mnr John Walters. Hy het beveel om nie 'n berig in die koerant in te sit nie voordat hy nie terugvoering gegee het nie. Intussen is die Topnaar Tradisionele Owerheid (TTO) met hulle skelmstreke besig en hulle gaan voort.

Die Duitse inisiatief se honderd ses- enneëntig bokke is besig om eienaars te kry en word uitgedeel aan nege huisgesinne. Elke huis het 8 bokke ontvang, so met ander woorde altesaam is dit net 72 bokke wat uitgedeel is. Wat het van die ander 54 bokke geword? Die uitdeling van die bokke is agter geslote deure gedoen. Die volk is nie in kennis gestel nie en ‘n geleentheid gegun om hulle mening vorendag te bring nie. Daar word van 'n komitee gepraat wat geensins bestaan nie. Waar kom die komitee vandaan wat die bokke uitgedeel het. Daar is ook die bokke wat Rössing aan die Topnaars gegee het en die is in die jaar 2008 gepoel. Tot nou toe is die bokke nie aan hulle eienaars terug besorg nie. Die mense soek hulle bokke terug van die TTO af.

Die Topaars het by twee geleenthede by die President hulle klagtes ingedien. Die hoof van Namibië het baie gou gereageer en vir ons skriftelik geantwoord.

Hy het die Minister van Plaaslike Behuising beopdrag om so gou as moontlik die kwessies wat ons onder sy aandag gebring het na te gaan. Tot vandag toe het die Ministerie van Plaaslike Behuising nooit vir ons skriftelik geantwoord nie. Dieselfde het die M.E.T. gedoen. Hulle is die ministerie wat op ons voorouers se gronde besigheid maak in die Dorop Park en ook Namib Naukluft. Hulle is die grootse sondebokke want duisende briewe vanaf ons lê by hulle.

Ons het bewyse en die afskrifte is by ons. Die Erongo Goewerneur en die Ombudsman is ook skuldig want hulle ant-woord ons nie skriftelik nie. Ons wonder wat is die rede?

Hoekom antwoord hulle ons nie. Hoekom

antwoord die President?

Dit voel vir ons dat daar teen ons gediskrimineer word. Die volk word nie gerespekteer nie. Dit is vanselfsprekend dat ons mense se regte geskend word. Indien dit nie so was nie sou die regering na ons geluister het. Die blinde man wat nie kan sien nie word ook deur die die wet van Namibië beskerm en ons is nie blind nie. Ons sien wat met ons gedoen word. Ons sien wat op NBC TV uitgesaai word. Ons luister na radio Damara-Nama en die Afrikaanse diens. Hoekom luister die regering na die Ovahimba mense wanneer hulle klagtes by die regering gaan lê?

Soos ons sien speel die politiek 'n groot rol want hoofmanne of kapteine druk hulle borse uit. Dit lyk asof sommiges onaantasbaar is omdat hulle deel van die regerende party is.

Ons sien dit en dit is geen geheim nie. Dit was in die koerante. Wat sê dit vir die volk? Ons voel die Ombudsman het misluk om die Topnaars se regte te beskerm. Dit lyk asof die Ombudsman kragteloos is of kies hy kant?

Ons ontvang van die hoofman se prokureurs briewe en word verhoed om op te tree maar die Ombudsman sê hy kan niks doen nie al word ons bang gemaak van die prokureurs.

Ons sal nie stilsit nie. Ons sal ons stemme laat hoor. Ons is nou mooi moeg en siek. Daar is nou net een rigting vir ons. Ons sal ons menseregte organisasies op eie bodem en uit die buiteland nader. Ons gaan aanhou en soveel as moontlik organisasies vir hulp nader en by ons saak betrek. Genoeg is genoeg!

Oyla Hagen Wow, I think I should reconsider to do banking career again!

Pieter Van Der Merwe Zula Just reading the post gives me cancer, learn to spell and then we will pay employees more money!

Zula Aby-Malawyer Jonez Stealing ýs the best solution to

Jackey Desai Why it took them so long to realize this kind of transaction. Funny!

Ivolene Ivy Orfao Such a shame.

Esme Scheepers Van Wyk He saved it up to settle his bail, crap justice system!!

He should have been locked up to teach him a lesson...

One month to go for petrol card phase-out: It is just one month to go before the official phasing out of petrol cards in Namibia.

Gerrie Botha Deborah Henckert. Have you told the people, what your interest is on the outstanding amount on the credit card that you are trying to rub of on people. Thank God, I got rid of Standard Bank, their credit card, and their cheque account.

Dawn Els Most fuel pumps in Europe countries each have a card reader which will register the amount of fuel you pumped and you pay with your debit card at the pump. No more attendants. (wash your own windows) Downside is that it took jobs away and that means less expense for the fuel stations i.r.o. salaries and all relevant things of having to employ someone.

Dee J Baaz Ya and then the mobile ATM don't give you all the notes, like at Truckport in Swakopmund Jeanette Van Zyl Garages do not accept cr or debit cards because the bank fees are higher than rhe profit on petrol.

Charmaine O'Sullivan No Brandon. In Europe you can use your debit card for all purchases including fuel.

Much more convenient than having to carry a second card just for purchasing fuel and a saving on the bank costs is issuing a second card too. This is long overdue.

Christa Delport Does anyone know why Bank of Nam stopped petrol cards?

Brandon Kruger Hahaha, so funny. They always say go draw money then come pay.

Brandon Kruger Never mind that, last time I checked one couldn't use a debit card at a service station. Cause Namibia has to be different.

Dee J Baaz Lol Brandon Kruger. You need to have a bank balance for it to work hahahahah. What a bunch of BS! Have anyone from the Banks used their Debit/Credit Cards to refuel? Have they noted that the service stations charge a percentage on top of the fuel amount?

Ivolene Ivy Orfao Now u gna see how the credit cards will be fraud ed!!!! And the banks will make big money now with the interest they charge on credit cards.

Brandon Kruger Unbelievable.

Dispelling Cancer myths Anri Jacobs World Cancer Day is one of the most important dates on the International Cancer calendar worldwide. A press conference was held on 29 January in Windhoek regarding World Cancer Day. It is a unique day in the year when the world can unite under a single theme to highlight the ongoing fight against cancer. It takes place every year on 4 February. World Cancer Days aims to save millions of preventable deaths each year by raising cancer awareness in the general public and pressuring all governments to take actions against the disease. Why World Cancer Day is important because the global cancer epidemic is huge and is set to rise. If urgent action is not taken to raise awareness about the disease and we do not implement strategies to address cancer, cancer is projected to increase and will lead to alarming pre-mature cancer deaths. The Interna-tional cancer community claim to have a collective responsibility to support low-and middle-income countries that are tackling a cancer epidemic with insufficient resources and where the majority of cancer burden growth is anticipated. There is now anurgent need for a global commitment to implement comprehensive National Cancer Control Plans in all countries.

World Cancer Day is the ideal opportunity to raise the profile of cancer in people's minds through the world's media and word of mouth. The audience for World Cancer Day 2014 is everyone! It is only with everyone doing their part that the world will reduce the burden of cancer.

MYTH 1: WE DON'T NEED TO TALK ABOUTCANCER THRUTH: Whilst cancer can be a difficult topic to address, particularly in some cultures and settings, dealing with the disease openly can improve outcomes at an individual, community and policy level. Talking about cancer to partners, family members, friends and colleagues can help to alleviate feelings of fear, anger, sadness, loneliness and anxiety. In most settings, cancer remains taboo and people with cancer are even subject to stigma and discrimination that may stop them from seeking care.

Even within highly engaged communities, the level of knowledge of cancer and the willingness to talk about it with friends and family can be low. Support groups can provide a caring and supportive environment for people living with cancer to express their feelings and reduce anxiety and fear. They also provide a space to share information about cancer treatment options and their side effects. A return to work is an important step in restoring stability, social contact and income. For both patients and those who take care of them, receiving support in the workplace can be of great benefit. A supportive approach from employers can reduce anxiety and provide the skills and confidence to deal with cancer at work. The impact on sexual wellbeing is, for many, one of the most devastating consequences of a cancer diagnosis. The cost of

cancer is estimated to reach USD 458 billion per year in 2030. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that a basic package of cost effective strategies to address the common cancer risk factors (tobacco use and harmful use of alcohol, unhealthy diet and physical inactivity) would cost only USD 2 billion per year.

MYTH 2: THERE ARE NO SIGNS OR SYMPTOMS OF CANCER TRUTH: For many cancers, there are warning signs and symptoms and the benefits of early detection are indisputable. Awareness is the first step to early detection and improving cancer outcomes. For many cancers, including breast, cervical, skin, oral and colorectal cancers, and some childhood cancers, the benefits of early detection are indisputable. With few exceptions, early stage cancers are more treatable than late stage cancers.

Recognition of early warning signs of some cancers is particularly relevant in low resource settings it is cost effective and in some cases do not require any specialist diagnostic technologies. For many developing countries, the provision of a skilled cancer workforce to diagnose and manage cancer remains a challenge, with most facing a severe shortage of oncologists and other specialists including pathologists. For cervical cancer, studies have shown that even a single screening between the ages of 30 and 40 can reduce a woman's lifetime risk of cervical cancer by one third.

MYTH 3: THERE IS NOTHING I C A N D O A B O U T CANCER THRUTH: There is a lot that can be done at an individual, community and policy level and with the right strategies; a third of the most common cancers can be prevented.

The conditions in which people live and work and their lifestyles, influence their health and quality of life. Tobacco use, the most common risk factor, is linked to 71% of lung cancer deaths and accounts for at least 22% of all cancer deaths. Based on current trends, tobacco use is estimated to kill one billion people in the 21st century. Alcohol is a known risk factor for cancer. It is strongly linked with an increased risk of cancer of the mouth, pharynx, oesophagus, bowel and breast, and may also increase the risk of liver cancer and bowel cancer in women. Overweight and obesity are also strongly linked to increased risks of bowel, breast, uterine, pancreatic, oesophagus, kidney and gallbladder cancers.

There are easy ways for organisations of all sizes to create en-vironments that protect and promote the health of their employees. The World Health Organisation (WHO) estimates that 177,000 cancer deaths each year are related to occupational exposure to selected carcinogens, with one in

every three deaths estimated to be caused by asbestos. Chronic infections are estimated to cause approximately 16% of all can-cers globally, with this figure rising to almost 23% in developing countries.

MYTH 4: I DON'T HAVE THE RIGHT TO CANCER CARE THRUTH: All people have the right to access proven and effective cancer treatment and services on equal terms, and without suffering hardship as a consequence. Disparities in cancer outcomes exist between the developed and developing world for most cancers.

Patients in low resource settings, whose cancer may be curable in the developed world, often suffer and die unnecessarily due to a lack of awareness, resources and access to affordable and quality cancer services. Over 85% of the 275,000 women who die every year from cervical cancer are from developing countries. More than 70% of the 160 000 newly diagnosed cases of childhood cancer worldwide each year lack access to effective treatment. The result is an unacceptably low survival rate of 10% in some low and middle income countries compared to 90% in some high income countries. In many cases the largest and most unacceptable gap in cancer care is the lack of adequate palliative care and access to pain relief.

A short list of medications can control pain for almost 90% of cancer patients including children, yet little to no access to adequate pain treat-ment is the norm in many countries. Inequities in access to cancer services are closely associated with socioeconomic status with poor and vulnerable populations unable to afford expensive cancer medicines, as well as experiencing other obstacles to access, such as distance to quality treatment facilities. Differences in occupation, gender, ethnicity and in particular education, are also linked with common cancer risk factors e.g. poor nutrition, tobacco use and second-hand smoke, and harmful use of alcohol, regardless of the resource setting. In many countries, irrelevant of their recourse setting, lack of health insurance and other barriers prevent people from getting access to even basic healthcare.

Universal health coverage to ensure that all people have access to health services without financial hardship is a critical component of sustainable development and poverty reduction, and a key element of any effort to reduce social inequities in cancer outcomes.

Nel, Viviers win AFRO Pumps Shoot at SKW Louw Nel and Beanta Viviers came out on top of the compound men's and women's category at last weekend's AFRO Pumps Archery Shoot respectively. The event at the SKW sports grounds in Olympia marked the official beginning of the 2014 season.

TAKING AIM: Louw Nel focusing on the target

Bank confirms commitment to motorsport Bank Windhoek has, for the fifth consecutive year, renewed its loyalty to the Namibia National Enduro Series as the official sponsor with a sponsorship of N$80 000 The sponsorship was awarded to the Namibia Motor Sport Federation (NMSF), through the Namibia Enduro Club, the main organiser of the popular motorsport.

Speaking at the handover, Andreas Brendel, Chairman of the Namibia Enduro Club said: “The Namibia National Enduro Series is one of the most visible sport events on Namibia’s sport calendar, thanks

to the media who continue to cover the series events extensively. It is also for this reason that we continue to witness an increase in the number of participants. I would like to thank Bank Windhoek and other sponsors for their continued support and for believing in us. Without their support, we would

not be able to host successful events.”

“Bank Windhoek has always believed and reiterated its support for smaller and unknown sport codes that are otherwise overlooked by corporate sponsors.

Our support to the Namibia National Enduro Series during the past five years has yielded positive results

for the sport, having grown in number participation and achieving wider media presence. As a result, more people are now aware of the sport”, said Riaan van Rooyen, Head of Corporate Commu-nication and Social Investment at Bank Windhoek.

Eight events are expected to take place during the 2014 season, concluding with the final series on 18 October in Okahandja.

A total of 30 archers from all over the country participated in 11 different categories. As always, the participants had to shoot a round of 720 during qualification to determine how they will be ranked for the elimination round that followed shortly thereafter.

And it was in the qualification round that Nel already made his presence felt, as he collected a total of 659 point. Only veteran Francois Marais was better, as he accumulated a fantastic score of 664. The third best archer during qualification was Ruan van Staden with 656 points.

Both Nel and Marais cruised through their first elimination round. They were then squared up against each other and this time it was Nel who kept an upper hand against his rival in what became the closest contest over the entire tournament. Both archers collected 134 from a possible 150 points during the initial shoot-off. In the sudden-death shoot-out that followed, each arrow could mean the difference between victory and defeat. And as both archers hit the 8 on their target, it was Nel's arrow that was closest to the X and therefore gave him the win.

In the final Nel came up against van Staden who had won his semi-final match against Johan Wessels. And although van Staden put up a great display, it wasn't enough to edge out Nel who secured his first title for the season.

During qualification in the women's compound division, Viviers already made no mistake to get her name on top of the score sheet with 616 points. Ilana Malan followed with 606 and Liezl Schoeman with 559.

After an impressive showing in her semi-final against Mia Nel, Viviers moved to the final where she faced Malan. Continuing her good form, Viviers won gold with 132:130.

The compound cadet men's category was won by Mynhardt Beukes as he edged out Hendrik van Eeden in the final with 136:129.

Harvey Park won the compound master men's division, beating Moritz Hoff in their final with 124:118.

Meanwhile Xander Reddig, who was awarded a universality place for this year's Youth Olympic in Nanjing/China, shot only six points under the qualification score he needs to be part of the games.

Although the 15-year old isn't quite there yet, the Archery Association of Namibia (AAN) is confident that Reddig will continue improving and achieve the qualification in time.

Other winners: Compound U13 girls: 1. Hanné Snyman 2. Quinn Reddig Recurve Men: Peter van Eeden Recurve Cadet Men: Xander Reddig Recurve U13 boys: CF Brandt

“We are looking forward to keep the coastal flag flying high in the NFABidvest Cup competition.

The new signings will add strength and also bolster our chances in the Erongo 2nd Division Soccer League” said Brenner.

Kashela’s moment of truth?

Daniel “Open Fire” Kashela is scheduled to climb through the ropes against a yet to be named opponent for a shot at the vacant International Boxing Federation (IBF) Middle East Welterweight Title on 5 April at Bennies Entertainment Centre in Ongwediwa.

The twelve round fight is being organised by Harry Simon’s Onkugo Promotions and was initiated after the Onesmus Ngowi, the IBF Africa and Middle East President, saw Kashela throwing punches against Lukas Mukete at Simon’s last fight in Wind-hoek late last year.

According to Simon, Ngowi approached him the following day and enquired if Kashela was willing to fight for a title. “I initially indicated to him that it was too early for Kashela to have a go at a title” said Simon who utilised Kashela as a sparring partner to prepare for his fight against Ajetovic.

“I was in the dressing room when Kashela fought Mukete and defeated his opponent via points over six rounds. From what I heard he impressed many people including the Prime Minister who applauded him for an excellent performance on the evening.

Boxing pundits labelled his performance the best they had ever witnessed and this ultimately convinced him to give Kashela the go ahead” said Simon who pointed out that he knows Kashelsa as a four to six rounds fighter.

Simon enquired from Kashela if he would be willing to go for a twelve round fight. I sparred with him over ten rounds and he informed me that he was willing to go the distance. According to Simon, Kashela initially struggled to up his game. “If his heart tells him he is ready to fight twelve rounds I am looking forward to take him on and spar with him and am also affording him an opportunity to join me on a two months training camp in South Africa. I am confident that he would dispel any doubts that I may have after this and will be able to go the distance over twelve rounds” proclaimed Simon.

He further stated that Kashela would not be training to score a knockout and that he would expect him to work like a machine in order to last for the whole fight and to emerge as the champion after twelve rounds. Simon pointed out that he had sparring sessions with Kashela, identified some mistakes and focused on rectifying

Mighty Youngsters parade new signing’s

Second Division Soccer outfit Mighty Youngsters announced the acquisition of four players on Wednesday. Owner Faud Brenner, Chairman Boeta Mouton and Head Coach Paulus Shipanga introduced midfielder Rakiim Da Silva and defender Leon Simataa who joined Mighty Youngsters from Western Spurs and defender Edison Paulus and midfielder Vilha Harraseb from Blue Birds to the media and welcomed them to the side.

them and that it was an ongoing process. Kashela has already benefited from specialised training sessions under the watchful eye of Simon's mentor Norman who assisted him with aspects related to his balance, technique, pace, jab and also sharpened his overall performance.

“I can see Kashela is hungry to proof his worth for Namibia as a boxer. He should focus on boxing because only he can satisfy his hunger and make his dream come true. I have no doubt that he will be a champion. He is a good listener and learner and courageous fighter with a huge heart. It is time he lives up to the expectations of his fans who regard him as a champion” concluded Simon.

He announced that the planned tournament will feature eight supporting fights and a ninth exhibition match in which he was going to test if his hand had recovered completely from the injury he sustained in his last fight.

Simon (42) who is a light heavyweight fighter is currently ranked 11th after he maintained his unbeaten record which now stands at 29 fights (21 knockouts) with a victory against Geard Ajetovic from Germany on a unanimous points decision in an International Boxing Federation (IBF) light heavyweight title fight in September 2013. He is now in line for a title defence fight scheduled for May or June possibly in the United States or in Namibia.

Amongst his possible opponents are USA based light heavyweight pugilist Bernard Hopkins known as “The Executioner” with a record of 54 wins (32knockouts), 6 defeats and 2 draws, USA based cruiserweight Glen Johnson known as Road Warrior with a record of 53 wins (36 knockouts) 18 defeats and two draws or the German based heavyweight Gene Pukall (18 wins, 14 defeats and 2 draws) who is ranked 10th.

According to Simon the IBF wants him to fight and defends his title against Pukall who comes with a hefty fighting fee of N$1 million per fight in Canada, but he will request that the fight be staged in Namibia and would need funds in order for this to materialise.

Simon thanked God for blessing him with boxing talent and also expressed gratitude towards Telecom Namibia for investing in boxing and for assisting Namibian youngsters to realise their dreams. Kashela promised to be on top of his game for the upcoming fight and thanked Onkugo Promotions for the opportunity. “I thank God for answering my prayers. Now that things are finally happening I am going to the gym to prepare myself by listening and learning from Harry” he said.
