This area was zoned for erven for township development and it took a three-year process to get it approved.

It had to go through Council and several other bodies, and at every stage the public had a chance to object.

Pastor Abner Dourob was sent to prison in November 2010 after he was found guilty in the Swakopmund Regional Court of raping a 16-year-old churchgoer.

The victim testified that Dourob was praying while he raped her and apparently said “Amen”, when he had finished violating her. Magistrate Gaynor Poulton sentenced Dourob to seven years in prison for raping the schoolgirl.

Dourob's wife and children were reportedly in the house in Walvis Bay on that fateful day in November 2008, when he raped the learner in a room outside his main house.

It was reported that she had gone to the pastor for counselling and had asked him to pray for her, as she was struggling with her studies. Dourob admitted her to the prayer room outside his house, but then asked her to step outside for a moment, while he attended to other people in need of prayer.

When he let her back inside, Dourob started to rub oil on her genitals and then proceeded to have sex with the bewildered schoolgirl, while he was praying fervently throughout the assault. A criminal investigation followed after she told a friend at school about the incident and word got out that the pastor had raped a member of his flock in his prayer room.

Dourob died in the Windhoek State Hospital last week of an unidentified illness. A memorial service was held for him in Walvis Bay yesterday. He will be buried in Usakos on Saturday.

He says that the area between the Martin Luther monument up to, and including, the Nonidas Castle was proclaimed suitable for township development by the Swakopmund Town Council: “There is no difference between us and the (Ross-mund) golf course housing development, but the area between Nonidas and Ross-mund is zoned for tourism development”, which is why there are additional restrictions on subdividing those erven, he explained.

Asked about the potential impact of seasonal flooding along the riverbank, Mr Botha said they have permission to build no closer than 100 yards (91.44 metres) from the edge of the riverbed. Houses built nearest the riverbed will be restricted to single-story units, he noted.

The exclusive Heritage Hill project has a total development cost of N$1.5 billion over seven years and will consist of 152 individual residential erven (of which 52 will be luxury villa-type developments), a retirement village of 160 units, 180 residential flat units, 70 luxury flats, a 350room luxury hotel and conference facility with parking, a business and retail, as well as entertainment component, a six-star 14 bedroom boutique hotel, and a three multilevel office complex with parking areas.

Mr Botha says this would however be done in several phases, starting with the sale of the residential erven. They sold 30 erven during the first auction at the end of March, he confirmed, noting that the hotel is also in the market and they are considering setting aside two erven of some 8 500 square metres, specifically for townhouses. The developers plan to start

installing basic civilian infrastructure for the single residential units by August and Botha hopes that the first houses will be ready by June 2015.

The area will in future be closed off to the general public and will become the first enclosed residential complex at the coast.

With only one access road leading in and out of the gated community, guests will be allowed to enter only if the guards have been given prior notice, and no vehicle will be allowed to enter the premises unless admitted by the guard on duty at the gate. Workers may not enter or leave the site on foot, but will have to be transported onto and off the premises.

Although the owners will design their own houses and hire their own builders, all houses in the gated community will have to meet certain criteria. Houses must be at least three times the municipal valuation of the land. The exterior must be painted white or else be clad in natural stonework, with red cement tiling. Solar heating panels must be screened and may not have external tanks; no solar panels or heating panels may be visible from any position.

Mr Botha confirmed that the put-up price starts at N$350 per square metre and the prices of the erven on auction range between N$250 000 and N$400 000, but he noted that erven with a put-up price of N$250 000 sold for as much as N$550 000 last month. Bidders were willing to pay just short of a million dollars for some of the prime erven sold last month, Botha said. The conditions of sale include N$30 000 deposit on each erf, as well as the auctioneer's N$15 000 commission plus VAT. The next auction is set to take place on 19 April.

Business booklet launched Otis Finck The British High Commissioner Marianne Young launched the new version of a booklet, “Doing Business Guide in Namibia” on the occasion of welcoming the Royal Navy Ship HMS Portland to Walvis Bay on Monday.

Namibian Police Inspector Lt Gen. Sebastian Ndeitunga, Port Captain Lukas Vipanda Kufua, Mayor Uillika Nambahu, Namport CEO Bisey Uirab and members of the Diplomatic Corps attended the launch of the booklet on board of the HMS Portland.

The book is an updated version of the original 2012 edition written by Economist Robin Sherbourne.

According to Ms Young, the 2012 edition proved to be an extremely popular commercial and reference aid for British Businesses in Namibia and has been an excellent tool to further the British and Namibian Governments' common objectives on trade and investment.

The guide encourages UK com-panies to identify investment opportunities in Namibia and serves as a tool for Namibian companies who seek expertise from leading UK companies in their respective fields.

“The UK continues to be one of the world's most attractive places to do business with and shares the Namibian government's goal of wanting to boost trade and invest-ment links. The guide serves the purpose of providing commercial tools for British Businesses based in Namibia and to boost healthy bilateral trade links.

I hope you will find it a useful tool to help deliver UK trade and investment targets,” she said. The booklet contains a helpful digest of key country background information to explain the investment climate in Namibia as well as practical information to enlighten British companies about the opportunities and challenges of doing business in Namibia.

The British High Commission spent approximately N$1.1 million on a range of prosperity projects with a focus on helping to improve local trade and investment, improve and enhance the ease of doing business for British investors in Namibia in 2013. Namibia exports minerals, beef, grapes, beer and charcoal and imports mainly machinery and vehicles from the UK. Bilateral trade in goods between the two countries stood at N$2 billion in 2013 with imports of Namibian goods to the UK valued at N$1 billion and exports worth N$983 million.

There are many British commercial projects such as the Weatherly's new Tschudi copper mine in Tsumeb, Tullows' development of Namibia's offshore Kudu gas deposits and the Rolls Royce Marine service centre based

in Walvis Bay. Namibia also benefits from the UK's Department of International Development's (DFID) Regional Plan for Southern Africa in areas such as food security, climate change, water management, health education, regional trade facilitation and financial sector strengthening.

A British business delegation headed by the institution “British Expertise” with accompanying representatives from Matt McDonal, Roughton and Mabye Bridge visited Namibia in September 2013 looking for potential of joint business ventures between Namibian and British companies in the mining, logistics, construction, agriculture, manufacturing, financial sector, disaster risk reduction management and tourism.

This visit was in response to a request from the Namibian Government for greater commercial engagement by British companies in the Namibian private and public sector.

Trade volumes between the UK and Namibia changed substantially between 2012 and 2013 due to the decision by De Beers Diamond Corporation to shift its trading and sorting operations from London to Botswana's capital Gaborone. De Beers sold its rough diamonds from headquarters situated in London for more than 80 years and deems its new office “the world's most sophisticated diamond sorting, valuing and sales facility and an excellent environment for the company's global client base”.

In September 2011, the Government of the Republic of Botswana and the De Beers Group announced that an agreement had been reached on a new, 10-year contract for the sorting, valuing and sales of Debswana's diamond production.

Debswana is a 50/50 joint venture between the Government of the Republic of Botswana and De Beers to mine the country's diamonds. As part of that agreement, De Beers agreed to transfer its London-based rough diamond sales activity to Gaborone, underpinning the long-term future of the partnership and helping to transform Botswana into one of the world's leading diamond centres.

The De Beers group has been the world's leading producer of diamonds since 1888 and employs more than 23,000 people worldwide.

pension contributions

Marshallino Beukes & Jade McClune About 20 employees of Stone Africa/Roach Investment were summarily retrenched on 15 March this year, but it has since emerged that their pension contributions had not been paid for several months.

According to the Mineworkers Union of Namibia (MUN) the decision to retrench was not in line with the stipulations of the Labour Act. In a letter addressed to the company's manager, Mr Jaap Coetzer, the MUN said they are “very disturbed by the way the management, in association with the Labour Office, is dealing with and/or implementing this matter”, without the union's involvement.

The union felt that Stone Africa should have first informed the bargaining unit, as well as the Office of the Labour Commissioner about their plans, in order to negotiate the contentious issues prior to settling on a retrenchment package.

Talks about retrenchment started in December, but because of pending financial matters the parties could not make headway. These problems, the MUN said, include the non-payment of the 13th cheque, which was not paid out at the end of December and their salaries for January and February were also not paid in full.

One of the workers informed the Namib Times on Wednesday that their salaries for March, which they only received on the said day, were also not paid in full.

The workers further claim that Social Security fees were deducted from their salaries, but never paid to the Social Security Commission.

According to a letter drafted by the workers, they are concerned about safety at the workplace and the lack of medical assistance from the company. They note that one of the crew members was injured last year while on duty and allege that the injured worker was never taken to a health facility, although he sustained a serious injury to his hand.

“We are also unhappy about Swakopmund's labour officers. We don't know what the story between them and the employers is, because they made decisions without consulting our union representative, or the employees,” the workers wrote. One labour inspector, Mr Eric Kulubone angrily slammed the phone down when the newspaper attempted to get clarity on a number of complaints regarding his office.

MUN General Secretary, Mr Ebben Zarondo said on Wednesday that they had reached an agreement with the company on Monday and that the company agreed to pay out all outstanding monies, including the pension money, by 15 April 2014. He said the reason for retrenching the workers is due to “economical reasons”.

Mr Arthur Kroehnerp, the Principal Officer of the Orion Pension Fund administered by Old Mutual, confirmed yesterday that Stone Africa had not been paying over pension contributions for some time. He said that he entered into negotiations with the company in December and met with the owners in January to raise the issue.

Kroehnerp said they “will take every legal step to ensure the payment of due contributions”, adding that “the risk comes when the employer does not forward the contributions.” He nevertheless gave assurances that “the workers will not lose any of the money they paid. The company is legally obligated to pay,” he assured Earlier this year Orion Pension Fund seized assets belonging to Dantago Clothing at Arandis, after the textile company failed to remit workers' pension contributions. Kroehnerp further said that as soon as workers suspect that money deducted from them is not being remitted to the pension administrator they should immediately contact the principal officer of the pension fund.

Asked to comment on the rare coincidence of same birth date and same work start date for many workers, Kroehnerp said that the company was aware of the inaccurate data, but apparently the dates were used as 'default dates' by Stone Africa, pending the submission of the correct details.

“Stone Africa has an obligation to submit the correct

details, but the members also have a responsibility to correct the details on their Statement of Benefits,” Kroehnerp noted, adding that none have contacted his office about this discrepancy.

The owners of Stone Africa/Roach Investments could not be reached on their mobile numbers and the company's office telephone remained disconnected this week. Stone Africa operates a granite mine some 15 kilometres outside Arandis.

Wounds of genocide not yet healed, say Nama leaders Jade McClune The Nama people are not in confrontation, or at war with the German government, but insist on compensation for atrocities committed in the past.

This was said by Mrs Ida Hoffmann, the chairperson on the Nama Genocide Technical Committee, during the commemoration event on Saturday.

She said that 60% of the Nama and 80% of the Herero were wiped out in the 1904-1908 war: “The Nama today therefore say that the Germans waged a war of extermination and genocide against us, because we refused to be coloni-sed.”

Hundreds of people marched on Saturday to the old graveyard near the riverbed to the south of Swakopmund, where the bones of

thousands of unidentified people lay buried in heaps of unmarked graves.

Some historians estimate that at least 10,000 Nama died during that period, while thousands more perished later in concentration camps, where they were often worked to death.

Until recently there was no official acknowledgment or memorial in honour of the victims, who were mainly involved in building Swakopmund and the railway line during the early years of the 20th century.

Mrs Hoffmann reminded her audience that General Lothar von

Trotha was personally congratulated by Emperor Wilhelm II and honoured with a medal for “this atrocity”. “ Vo n T r o t h a w a s honoured because he murdered and wiped out the Nama and Herero; imprisoned them in concentration camps; used them as slaves; tortured them; women and girls were raped; the property of the Nama and Herero was confiscated and destroyed without any compensation; they were subjected to inhuman experiments

by Dr (Eugen) Fischer; as well as deportation to countries, such as Togo

and Cameroon,” she recounted.

Speaking to the Namib Times this week, Mrs Hoffmann said “The Germans are not our enemies.

If we talk about reconciliation, then that must go hand in hand with justice. We want reconciliation, justice, peace and unity in our country. We are talking about an apology and reparations.

That is why we are calling for a roundtable debate, including the German and Namibian governments, traditional leaders and the technical committees.”

Mrs Hoffman read aloud the infamous

ON A MISSION

Murder is not the answer Madelaine Laubscher An evangelist from Walvis Bay, who carries a big wooden cross covered in scriptures while praying for Walvis Bay and Swakopmund, wishes to urge everyone who has been affected by passion killings or have been accused of passion killings to turn to the word of God and abstain from using violence as a solution to their problems.

Mr Dawid Bronzel (37) who calls himself an apostle instead. Therefore I urge you to repent, for without and evangelist of God walks the streets of Walvis Bay repentance there is no deliverance. God calls each and and Swakopmund, to pray for the coastal community every one of us to repent,” he said.

Mr Bronzel says that he walks with the cross on a daily and to spread the word of God to the community.

“Two months ago I started walking with this cross, basis, spreading the word of God in Kuisebmond and covered in scriptures, to carry a message out to the Narraville, but also in Swakopmund and will also be coastal community to adhere to God`s word. I believe spreading the word of God during Easter weekend.

God spoke to me to go out and spread His word as it is “I am not employed anywhere, but I believe God has called me to spread His word as He laid it on my heart to stated in the Bible.

As I walk, I pray for murderers, road safety, drunk do so. Therefore I urge people to repent. drivers, rapists and domestic violence and now the Lord As I have walked many people have been touched and has laid it on my heart to bring a public message have approached me, blessing me with food or money as regarding the passion killings that have occurred so I walk. Many people have shown interest in receiving frequently since the beginning of the year. To those who the word of God. I urge those involved in passion commit such crimes, I want to say that Jesus did not die killings to turn to God, because it is only through Him for us to kill one another. He died for us to have life that you can be delivered,” he concluded.

“Extermination Order”, against the Nama people issued by General von Trotha on 22 April 1905.

“You should come with a white cloth on a stick along with your entire household and nothing will happen to you. You will begin work and receive food until after the conclusion of the war when the great German Kaiser will present new rules governing the affairs of the protection.

He, who after this chooses not to make an application for mercy, emigrate, because where he allows himself to be seen in the German area he will be shot until all are exterminated.”

“The Nama and Herero regard these deeds as acts of genocide,” Hoffmann said.

“We therefore insist on a round table discussion; reparation; apology and reconciliation.

The reparation involves, among others, the purchase of land for our people to be relocated; the building of schools; clinics; houses; roads, etc.”

Germany had no official representative at the commemoration on Sunday and has never

officially apologised for the genocide.

In 2004 the German Federal Minister for Economic Cooperation and Development Heidemarie WieczorekZeul said: “A century ago, the oppressors blinded by colonialist fervour - became agents of violence, discrimination, racism and annihilation in the name of Germany.”

“The atrocities committed in that time would be called today genocide - and today a general Von Trotha would have been pursued and condemned.

We Germans accept the historical and moral responsibility and culpability of the Germans of the time. And so, with the words of the prayer of God that we share, I ask you to forgive our sins.”

This year's genocide commemoration event follows on the recent return of a number of human skulls to Namibia, which had been exported from then German South West Africa and held for more than a century in a basement at a university in Freiburg, Germany.

Defying the HIV Stigma

Mavourlene Gaes

Bernard Kamatoto tested HIV positive almost 15 years ago and since then he has been involved in promoting AIDS awareness and fighting for the rights of those who have been infected.

He was born in Walvis Bay in 1971 and discovered his HIV status in 1999 at the age of 28, when he wanted to become a professional boxer.

“I was nominated to compete in a boxing tournament in South Africa and as a requirement had to have medical tests done to prove that I was healthy and fit. I did the tests and when the results came the doctor informed me to see him urgently and he told me that all other tests came back negative, but that I tested HIV positive.”

Learning his status shattered his dreams of becoming a professional boxer and he turned to alcohol for solace.

“I became very aggressive and constantly fought. Thoughts of committing suicide continuously crossed my mind.”

A close friend noticed his change in behaviour and asked him what the reason for this change was.

“I told her that I tested HIV positive and she advised me to join a support group at the Multipurpose Centre” explained Kamatoto who then went to the centre where he met two group members and informed them about his dilemma.

He joined the counselling sessions and while attending group therapy sessions he remembered living in constant fear what the community would say and how they

HEALTH

will label him when his HIV status became known.

He left the country and lived in Cape Town, South Africa for two months. He returned to Namibia and battled with the fact that he did not disclose his status to his mother. This made him miserable.

After gathering enough courage, Kamatoto told his uncle who in turn told his mother. Contrary to what he had expected, his mother accepted his condition and was very supportive.

Kamatoto decided to go public with his HIV status and he consulted his mother and Beverly, the then director of the Multipurpose Centre.

They told him that it was his choice and they would support his decision. He disclosed his status in 2003 and the decision changed his life forever.

He held a press conference in Swakopmund in May that year and announced that he was infected with the HIV virus.

He joined the Namibia Networks of AIDS Service Organisation (NANASO) and is also an International AIDS Committee member.

Last week Wednesday the organisation had a fundraising event in partnership with Namport. He was awarded the Best Achievement Award, for a person living with HIV. Kamatoto is the first person to receive this award.

He dedicated the award to the Walvis Bay Community whom he says gave

him support during a very difficult period of his life.

He is an advocate who speaks out against stigmatisation and discrimination of persons living with HIV by society.

“We talk about zero HIV infection, zero death and zero discrimination but our attitudes and mentalities towards persons living with HIV remain unchanged. Even the government still discriminates against people living with HIV,” he said, adding that the South African government for instance employs persons with HIV while Namibia do not do so. “Who is fooling who?” he questioned.

According to Kamatoto, HIV positive people are not awarded scholarships to further their studies. In 2011 he attended a high level meeting in New York, where the Minister of Health and Social Services and the President of Nami-

bia signed an agreement to promote zero tolerance towards HIV related discrimination and deaths by abstinence and practicing safe sex.

On 25 November it will be 15 years that Kamototo has been living with the virus.

He plans to host a fun day where he will address the community about HIV. He called on all businesses to come out and support this event for the community.

Anyone is welcome to become part of the organising committee. Kamatoto can be contacted on 081 312 5819.

Oesophagus cancer awareness in April Anri Jacobs The statistics for oesophagus cancer in Namibia is incredibly high and continue to rise.

The last record taken shows that in 2005, 18 males and 7 females were diagnosed with oesophageal cancer.

In 2008, 17 males and 7 females were diagnosed and the cases rose with 37 new cases in 2010 for both males and females together.

Cancer cells are malignant forms of body cells that often grow to form tissue masses or tumours that can spread to other organs. The two main types of oesophageal cancer are adenocarcinomas and squamous cell carcinomas.

Risk factors for both of these types of oesophageal cancers are males aged 65 or more, smoking, heavy drinking, a diet lacking fruits and vegetables, obesity, acid reflux, and Barrett's oesophagus. Common symptoms of oesophageal cancer include food getting stuck in the oesophagus and vomiting, pain with swallowing, chest and / or back pain, heartburn, weight loss, and a hoarse voice. Diagnosis is performed by a barium swallow test, endoscopy and biopsy (definitive test) There are five stages of oesophageal cancer Stages 0 to IV, with 0 being the least invasive and IV the most aggressive, affecting distant organs.

Treatment of this cancer is individually based on the patient's health and cancer stage; the options vary f r o m s u r g e r y , c h e m o t h e r a p y, radiation or a combination of these options (also, some patients may be considered for laser or photodynamic therapy. Surgery for this cancer may involve part or all of the oesophagus;

other structures like part of the stomach, lymph nodes or other parts of affected organs may be removed).

Radiation therapy uses high energy rays focused to kill cancer cells; it is often used together with chemotherapy. Chemotherapy uses drugs to destroy cancer cells; it is often used together with radiation and/or surgery and often requires cycles or repeated doses of drugs. In general, patients are encouraged to get a second opinion about their diagnosis and treatment for oesophageal cancer.

Side effects of treatment for oesophageal cancer may include the need for supportive care to control pain, infections such as pneumonia, difficulty in swallowing, depression, nausea, vomiting, requiring a feeding tube, requiring a special diet, weight loss, and may need vitamin and mineral supplements. It is important to create awareness, so that everyone knows all there is to know about oesophageal cancer.

Creating awareness for early detection and early prevention might just save a life.

Air traffic controller stirs up a fry Dorcas Mhungu

A Swakopmund resident, Jacqueline do Rego qualified to take part in the Team Namibia cook-off finale cooking competition that will take place in Windhoek today.

Speaking from Windhoek the 28 year-old air traffic controller at Walvis Bay airport, said her seafood menu for the competition tickled the taste buds of the chefs and it landed her in the finalists' slot.

“I couldn't believe it when on Monday I got a call from the organisers to go to Windhoek.

On Tuesday, my name was called out among the eight finalists and I had to apply for emergency leave to be here,” Jacky said.

Contestants were required to submit their uniquely Namibian recipes for a three-course menu, featuring seafood and using only Team Namibia ingredients.

Being a coastal resident, the seafood menu was relevant to her location that has abundant fish varieties.

She said the finalists were paired into four groups, determined by the number of

colours of Namibia's national flag.

Her cooking partner is rd a 22 year-old male 3 year Political Science student at the University of Namibia, Kieran Hayward.

Jacky's passions for cooking started at a very young age.

At the age of three, while her family was in South Africa, she took part in a toddlers' cooking competition that was organised by Checkers stores for children aged 3-5.

“I did not win but I loved it and all these years I have never taken part in any cooking competition.

Last year I missed the deadline of this same competition and this year I made sure that I did not miss it,” the elated air traffic controller and chef in the making narrated.

Team Namibia organised the cooking feat to promote the consumption and use of Namibian foods.

The participants are only allowed to use locally produced

ingredients, a condition that Jacky said was good but limited the choice of selection because there are few locally produced vegetables like onions and garlic, fruit and spices.

She said she was able to get fresh vegetables from smallholding farmers along the Swakop River.

Jacky's passion for cooking is greatly influenced by her upbringing and family background.

She said she was brought up in a family of avid cooks and her mother and grandmother have a great influence on her style of cooking.

Jacky is Portuguese and married to a Namibian of German descent. Her cooking is therefore a fusion of the three nationalities Namibian, German and Portuguese.

“My husband, Micha Stiemert is also an air traffic controller who is very supportive in everything that I do.”

She said her husband's

Jacqueline do Rego: Standing the heat of her kitchen support plays an important part in her ability to balance the roles of being a wife, mother to their 11 month-old son and a professional.

Each team will be assigned a professional chef to mentor and cook with them in the finals: Chef

Aurelius Katjirua: Katjirua Catering Supplies, Chef Gustav Uaeta: Head Chef Otjimbondona Lodge, Chef Rhona Strauss: Lodge Manager N/a'an ku sê Lodge, Chef Uwe Hanssen: Head Chef - Tug (Swakopmund). Winning masterpieces will

Jeighson goes international

Anri Jacobs

Mavourlene Gaes Jeighson Trixxy is busy marketing his album “Crying for mercy” and has plans for international performances.

The launch of his album is scheduled for this month in Otjiwarongo. The venue is still to be decided on. According to Jeighson his big break to perform internationally materialised last year October. “Going overseas is something I always dreamt about and now this dream is coming true for me,” he said. His song “Great Combination” brought him recognition.

He performed the song and the audience loved it and even sang along. A few days later he received an e-mail from an artist marketing agency based in the UK. He is due to leave in September, for a month long all expenses paid trip which includes a visit to London.

Mavourlene Gaes The Crystal Serenity ship, one of the best luxury passenger ships in the world, docked in Walvis Bay on Monday and left for Miami that same day.

Sailing with Crystal means escaping to a cosseted and refined life at sea. The ship has a carrying capacity of 1070 passengers and 655 crew members.

The Crystal Serenity was built in 2003, in Europe at St Nazaire.

The Crystal Symphony is her older fleet mate and both ships offer voyages around the world.

The ship received a $25 million refit in 2011. New lighting, carpeting and furnishings, along with a complete redesign of cabins, keep the ship feeling contemporary, fresh and incredibly well-maintained years after its launch.

The Crystal Serenity which is owned by Crystal Cruises departed on her first world cruise, which lasted

106 days, from LosAngeles on 14 February 2014 and will arrive in New York City on 5 May. The maiden voyage of Crystal Serenity was on 7 July 2003, 4 days after her christening.

It was a 14-day roundtrip cruise, departing from Southampton and cruising Northern Europe.

During her inaugural season, Crystal Serenity held summer cruises in Europe, the Mediterranean Sea, and a transatlantic crossing.

It was followed by two Caribbean/Panama Canal voyages and a combined Christmas/ New Year Mexican Riviera cruise, roundtrip from Los Angeles.

According to Christine Suzor PA to the Managing Director for Sales and Marketing the ship

offers its clientele the best. There are twice as many penthouse cabins on the Chrystal Serenity as on the fleet's other ships.

The entertainment facilities range from a gambling room for passengers that are not afraid to take risks, a Cuban club for the cigar smokers and a disco for the young at heart.

For those in search of good times, the Galaxy lounge and Pulse discotheque offers the ideal settings and should definitely be visited when you are travelling on Crystal Serenity.

Those preferring to watch a movie or live performing artists there is a choice between visiting the Theatre or the Cinema.

The ship also has a beauty parlour “The

Crustal Spa and Salon� where visitors can have a relaxing massage and can get their hair done.

The Bridge lounge is for people who enjoy playing mind games, including chess and scrabble.

The Computer University @ Sea offers basic computer skills courses to any of the guests who are interested in learning and the library is stocked with reading material for those who prefer to sit down and relax and read a book.

There are also two paddle tennis courts instead of one.

The little ones on board are also catered for with an all day nanny care service and a play room.

The ship also has an inhouse gym, various restaurants and bars.

The C Gals ladies choir will perform on 12 April in the Walvis Bay Town Hall as part of their preparation for their participation in the World Choir Games in Riga, Latvia. Songs will be performed that form part of the repertoire that they will present in Riga in July.

The C Gals choir is a chamber choir that consists of ladies from both the coastal towns of Swakopmund and Walvis Bay. The choir has been invited by Interkultur, the organisers of the World Choir Games to participate in this biannual event. This year in the 8th Choir Games, more than 500 choirs from all over the world will participate in the

many different categories.

The C Gals will be competing in the Open Competition in four categories. Most of these songs will be performed at the Walvis Bay Gala concert.

The choir has grown from an informal choir who rehearsed once a week in Swakopmund to a motivated and focused group that practises four times a week.

The honour of being invited by the Inter-

kulturorganisers in Frankfurt, Germany, stems from the very high marks that the choir received on two occasions in Choir examinations.

In 2010 the choir passed the Trinity Guildhall Silver Choral Assessment with 91% and in 2011 they passed the Trinity Guild Hall Gold Choral Assessment again with 91%.

In 2012 the C Gals travelled to Kristiansand, Norway, on

invitation by the Kristiansand Municipality where they had a successful concert program.

The concert on 12 April will form, as previously mentioned, an integral part of the preparation for the World Choir Games and the audience will have a wide variety of interesting music to enjoy. Music items from guest artists and members of the choir will be included in the program.

Soup and Sherry is included in the entrance fee. Art works from local artists will be on display in the foyer and will be for sale only on the night of the concert. Tickets can be obtained from any member of the C Gals. For any enquiries phone 081 124 2667.

Come and enjoy an evening of music and art - the C Gals are intent on making Namibia proud!

Ohne Sitzbänke, ohne Wind- und Sonnenschutz, ohne Toiletten! Die wartenden Busreisenden müssen auf dem Bordstein hocken, was nicht nur für ältere Menschen sehr, sehr schwierig ist.

Einen weniger prominenten, dafür mindestens ebenso leidenschaftlichen Tier- und Naturfreund, den Swakopmunder Marco Syvertsen, traf es milder, als er kürzlich beim Angeln von einem Rochen in den rechten, großen Zeh gestochen wurde. Das war bei Meile 8, wo man weit auf eine Sandbank hinausschwimmen kann.

Marco hatte diesmal

von einem Stechrochen in das rechte Schienbein gestochen worden. Obwohl der Einstich damals nicht sehr tief war, kann man heute noch eine furunkelartige Narbe erkennen, die zeigt, wie das Gewebe dort zerstört wurde.

An der Atlantikküste,in der Namibwüste

Deutsche Trainer setzen sich für namibische Hunde ein Martin Rütter's D.O.G.S. – kurz für dog orientated guiding system – ist in ganz Deutschland bekannt.

Der Tierpsychologe und Hundetrainer erklärt schon seit Jahren im Fernsehen Hundehaltern, was ihren Vierbeinern fehlt und wie sie bestehende Probleme im Zusammenleben mit ihrem Haustier aus der Welt schaffen können. Mittlerweile gibt es in ganz Deutschland Hundetrainer, die bei Martin Rütter's D.O.G.S. eine Ausbildung absolviert haben und nach seinen Methoden mit Hund und Halter in ihren selbstständig geführ-

und natürlich Hundehaltern vor Ort auszutauschen und sie in Sachen Hund zu beraten. Dabei legt jeder der drei Teilnehmer seinen ganz persönlichen Schwerpunkt.

Sven Ivens, der im Frühjahr 2015 ein Zentrum für Menschen mit Hund in Wittlich/Trier eröffnen wird, ist Organisator des Projekts und möchte in erster Linie bei den Menschen ein Bewusstsein für neue, artgerechte Trainingswege schaffen. „Die Resonanz auf unsere Idee und die Geschwindigkeit, mit der die Anmeldungen für Trainings in das Post-

Hunde, für ihn das Spiegelbild der Seele, begleiten Sven Ivens schon seit 25 Jahren.

schwerer zu motivieren und distanzierter ist, fegt mit Feylaya ein kleiner Wirbelwind durch Svens Leben.

Als einer der ersten Partner von Martin Rütter hat Marc Lindhorst D.O.G.S. kennengelernt, als das Netzwerk praktisch noch in den Kinderschuhen steckte. Damit ist er der erfahrenste Trainer des NamibiaTeams.

Nach der 18-monatigen Ausbildung bei Martin eröffnete Marc 2006 gemeinsam mit seiner Frau, die er während der Ausbildung

seiner Trainertätigkeit stand der 39-Jährige zirka 4000 Hundehaltern mit Rat und Tat zur Seite.

Als sein Steckenpferd bezeichnet Marc alle Formen der Aggressionsproblematik bei Hunden. Daher bildete er sich in dieser Richtung weiter fort und erlangte 2009 die nötige Qualifikation, um Hunde der Aggressionsstufe sechs – Aggres-sion mit der Absicht, den Gegenüber zu tö-ten – zu trainieren.

In Namibia möchte Marc nicht nur Wissen vermitteln, sondern auch selbst neue Erkenntnisse gewinnen. „Bisher hatte ich noch nicht die Möglichkeit, an einem solch interessanten Projekt teilzunehmen. Ich bin sehr gespannt, wie die Hunde hier sich im Gegensatz zu den Hunden bei uns verhalten werden oder ob es dieselben ‚Problematiken‘ gibt. Sprich, welchen Einfluss hat die namibische Kultur auf den Umgang mit den Hunden und damit auf das Verhalten der Tiere? Ich möchte herausfinden, ob die Sprache der Hunde weltweit gleich ist oder es kontinentale Unterschiede im Verhalten der Hunde gibt, die vielleicht sogar durch die Lebenskultur der Menschen bedingt sind.“ „Ich muss gestehen, dass Sven mich mit den Tierschutzaspekten des Projekts geködert hat“, erklärt Sarah Tabola den Grund für ihre Teilnahme an der Reise

können, war für meine Zusage ein wesentlicher Anreiz.“ Obwohl die 29-Jährige schon seit Kindertagen mit Tieren zusammen arbeiten wollte, entschied sie sich zunächst für ein kommunikationswissenschaftliches Studium.

Noch nicht einmal ein Jahr nach ihrem Universitätsabschluss begann die Hundehalterin die Ausbildung als D.O.G.S.-Coach, um sich nach der intensiven Beschäftigung mit der menschlichen und medialen Kommunikation nun der Kommunikation zwischen Mensch und Tier sowie der von Hunden untereinander zu widmen. „Es ist unerlässlich, sich auch mit der Ausdrucksweise und den Bedürfnissen der Lebewesen, für die man sich einsetzen möchte, auszukennen“, sagt Sarah. Sich ein fundiertes Fachwissen für ihre jour-

nalistische Arbeit im Tiersegment anzueignen, sei jedoch eigentlich nur ein sehr willkommener Nebeneffekt der Ausbildung gewesen. „Wenn ich als Coach arbeite, kann ich direkt und ohne Umwege einem Tier helfen. Viele Hunde werden chronisch missverstanden, was für die Tiere in Überforderung und Stress ausarten kann. Es ist wunderbar, wenn man mithelfen kann, zwischen Mensch und Tier eine gemeinsame Verständigungsebene herzustellen, und erlebt, wie glücklich Hund und Halter über

ihre wachsende Bindung zueinander sind.“ Dass Sarah Hundetraining und Journalismus in einer Person vereint, soll sich in Namibia auszahlen.

Das Team hat nicht nur vor, Hundehalter im Training mit ihren Vierbeinern voranzubringen, es möchte auch die Tierschutzvereine und den Kastrationsmarathon von Have-a-Heart längerfristig unterstützen.

Coastal Rossmund League Bowling Squash Club Notes gains

WINNER GROUP A: Trevor Grane

WINNER GROUP B: Gerhard Lottering

The final round of the Coastal's was played last week Friday. The prize giving and bash after play was really something else, so much so, that results for Wednesday and Friday were somehow misplaced.

Thankfully the proof of the winners of the respective groups is on camera, in case there is a comeback of some sort or other...

The league was played in Great Spirit and camaraderie, which I am sure led to a lot of friendships being formed.

After tough penultimate and final rounds and the points sorted out, the cups for the respective sections were presented to the following: Group A - Trevor Grane.

Group B - Gerhard Lottering.

Group C - George Bekker.

Group D - Raphael Burlamasque.

The Brazilians did well in this section and took the 2nd [Gabriel Burlamasque] and 3rd [Jonothan Campos] positions, as well.

Unfortunately their stint in Walvis Bay has come to an end and hopefully their replacements will prove to be squash enthusiasts, as well.

A wee break now, but by no means stay off the courts, as the Namib Diesel Social League will be up next.

Till then…

Cheers!

valuable points The women's and mixed team of the Rossmund Bowling Club (RBC) gained valuable points over the past weekend when they celebrated victory over the Tsumeb Bowling Club (TBC).

Their men's team, however, lost against their counterparts from the north and are now slowly but surely losing sight of the top the log.

Only three games were played. Especially the RBC ladies had a day to remember as they thrashed the opponents with 30:10.

The win saw the club from the coast move to third place in the log, just four points short of the leading ladies from TransNamib Bowling Club (TNBC).

In the mixed division, the Rossmund players were made to work hard for their win.

The evenly contested match eventually ended with 16:15 in their favor.

Like their female club

compatriots, the mixed team moved to third place in their log.

The gap between them and the log-leading Eros Bowling Club (EBC) is a mere two points.

In other action, the Rossmund men crashed to a 19:13 defeat against the TBC. It was a bitter loss, leaving them a momentous eight points behind the top of the log.

The National League will continue this weekend with the following games: 5 April: Tsumeb Bowling Club vs TransNamibia at TransNamib.

Namib Park vs Eros Bowling Club at Eros.

Rossmund Bowling Club vs Windhoek Country Club at WCC. 6 April: Tsumeb Bowling Club vs Windhoek Bowling Club at Windhoek Bowling Club. Namib Park Bowling Club vs Windhoek Country Club at Windhoek Country Club.

Rossmund Bowling Club vs Eros Bowling Club at Eros Bowling Club.

Rossmund Golf Club News Good morning from Rossmund - looks as if it is going to be another perfect day - sun is out no wind just yet - the seniors are once again on the move.

Winners: 1. W Engelbrecht 34pts (c/o), 2. T Botha 34 pts; 3. C Lautenbach 33 pts. A Seniors Ladder was introduced to give the guys something extra to play for - on the top rung at the moment is Willem Engelbrecht - so get those challenges going. At the AGM Bruce Burns was reelected as Seniors Captain. Sigi Wagner was presented with a special award as recognition for all his years of service to the Senior Golfers.

Saturday 29 March was our monthly fishing competition sponsored by Novanam - there was a fairly good field of golfers who took to the course to play real golf!! 2 Clubs coming from P Shimoshili; C Lawrence; W van Zyl; R Viljoen; D Haimbondi.

Sunday 30 March was FUNDAY at Rossmund and boy did we have fun - fantastic weather - a field of 60 golfers/non-golfers tackled the designated 6 holes players consisted of Moms & Dads; Oumas & Oupas; Husbands & Wives; Girlfriends & Boyfriends; kids & friends.

No. 12 held some extra fun with a hockey stick and a new improved tee - not to mention the shots of "jaggies" or "pink milk" whilst the kids were treated with a "sweetie" to give them a bit of extra energy.

No.18 had some interesting "golf balls" to help the players get the ball in the hole quicker :-).

Thanks to all who took part and worked to make this event so successful. A special word to Michael, Berndine and Fanus for the great braai and salads; Kathy & Norman for No. 12; Johan & Maryke for the jumping castle & plastic bikes; Dieter for the cutlery & vouchers; Shorty for No. 10 and everything else; and finally to Rossmund Golf Course for the venue!!

We will definately do this again.

We have a new sponsor for our Wednesday Competitions - Franz Blaauw from Puma Chemicals.

We had a good field and the scores were up from last week - Troffie tells me his golf is improving slowly there were also some new handicaps to contend with.

Winner of this weeks vouchers were - 18 holes Troffie 37 pts countout over Michael - who unfortunately played some of his even holes quite badly whilst Troffie was dropping in 3 pointers; 9 holes winner Gerhard on 19 pts - BACK NINE next week.

Saturday 5 April - Club sponsored Individual Stableford - Central Open in Windhoek.

Sunday 6 April - Sages - Walvis Bay. The National Sages is taking place in Windhoek on 11/12 April please enter your names on the list.
