Export Standards for horse No sewage inside
mackerel
into the sea
Staff Reporter
Horse mackerel exporting companies have expressed concerns over the introduction of the Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) standards by the Namibian Standards Institution (NSI) amid fears of revenue losses due to certification processes. On Thursday the NSI held a stakeholders meeting for all local industry members directly involved in the Mozambican fish and fishery product exports market. Major industry players such as Gendev, Namsov, United Fishing, Erongo Marine and Atlantic Pacific Fishing to name a few, sat at the table which quickly turned into a heated debate as local businesses raised their concerns over the implementation measures that the NSI will take to ensure that horse mackerel products adhere to the international
food safety standard. Major concerns were raised as to how the testing, regulations and certification procedure would be implemented by the NSI. “The fishing industry never sleeps,” one of the stakeholders exclaimed. “Horse mackerel gets packed into loading trucks/shipping vessels as soon as it gets harvested from the sea. We lose up to N$1.2 million per day on a vessel that is not travelling through its required shipping route,” the stakeholder continued. The fishing companies argued that

Mr Riundja Kaakunga (CEO NSI) and Mrs Cecilia Hinda (GM RCP) having to wait a few days to receive certification and results from the NSI could cripple the industry. No horse mackerel production company can recoup the cost of transport vessels waiting days for certification, they justified. Not only the products manufactured for export but also the trawling vessels would need to adhere to the HACCP
standard. The food safety standard is already being implemented in the hake exports market, however, the production processes of horse mackerel is different to that of the hake production market, stakeholders explained. “The model for hake cannot be copied and pasted into the horse mackerel industry,” a representative said. Just on sheer volume horse
mackerel production is more than double that of the hake processing in Walvis Bay. Horse mackerel exports are, by nature, volume driven as it is the staple protein food source for many African countries. It is also sold for as low a price as possible to supply this market with low-cost protein rich food. Any regulations that can increase the cost of
production could have a price hiking effect on the product. “Namibian food products should adhere to international standards,” Riundja Kaakunga, the CEO of NSI said. The regulatory body aimed to provide a better understanding of the standards and come to terms with how it could be implemented in the horse mackerel production industry.

‘n Onderwyser van Atlantic Hoërskool in Swakopmund is verlede Vrydag gearresteer, nadat hy blykbaar die memorandum van ‘n eksamen vraestel aan ‘n leerling by die skool beskikbaar gestel het. Mnr Michael Cloete en die 17-jarige leerling is albei aangekla vir diefstal van ‘n memorandum. Volgens die polisiewoordvoerder het die prinsipale van die spesifieke skool, me E Ipinge, later die dag by die Mondesa polisiestasie, waar hy aangekla was, opgedaag om
die saak terug te trek. Sy is blykbaar ingelig dat hy alreeds formeel aangekla is en dat hy Maandag, hierdie week, voor die Magistraatshof moes verskyn. ‘n Verteenwoordiger van die Ministerie van Onderwys in Swakopmund het Maandagoggend die klag teen die
onderwyser teruggetrek en aangevoer dat die saak intern hanteer gaan word. Volgens die polisiewoordvoerder het die onderwyser, wie se memorandum aan die leerling oorhandig was, lont geruik, nadat die seun 100% in die spesifieke saak behaal het.
Dit wil voorkom asof dit nie die leerder se normale standaard is nie. Die Mondesa polisie is gekontak en by nadere ondersoek is mnr Cloete gearresteer. Die Direkteur van Onderwys (Erongo), mnr John Awaseb het gisternamiddag die voorval bevestig. Hy het genoem
dat sy kantoor ‘n inspekteur gaan afvaardig om die saak in diepte by die skool te ondersoek en indien genoegsame bewyse teen Cloete gevind word, ‘n saak van wangedrag teen hom geopen gaan word. Mnr Awaseb het voorts genoem dat die ondersoek
volgende kwartaal, wanneer die skole heropen, ‘n aanvang gaan neem. Mnr Cloete is nie geskors nie, maar volgens mnr Awaseb mag hierdie stap volg, indien daar bevind word dat sy teenwoordigheid by die skool die ondersoek mag belemmer.

Discharge into the sea
No raw sewage discharged into the sea Jade McClune
Surfers and fisherfolk, who frequent the beach area known as ‘The Wreck’, have repeatedly raised concerns over what appears to be the chronic discharge of sewage water into the sea. The namib times can reveal that this practise is expected to end within the next weeks, as a newly-constructed reservoir comes into operation. Environmentalists are concerned that currently there appears to be no monitoring of the impact of the fluids released into the sea on the overall health of the coastal ecosystem. In response to a number of questions directed to the Municipality of Swakopmund, the local authority yesterday dismissed suggestions that it is discharging any sewage water into the sea. The municipality said it closely monitors the quality of the effluent released into the sea. Municipal spokesperson Ms Allie Gebhardt said, “No sewage is ever discharged into the sea.” She said only “Purified Effluent (PE), which has been treated and sterilised with chlorine is occasionally discharged.” Observers have noted that during peak holiday season the amount of effluent released into the sea increases, as a result of increased pressure on the sewer system,
when holiday-makers flood to the coast. The amounts released into the sea depend on how much semi-purified water is used at the green areas in town, Ms Gebhardt said. “The quantity discharged [into the sea] varies, depending on the use of PE and the influx of sewage to the treatment plant.” She explained that during period of “high inflows into the sewer system and low usage of the effluent at green areas around town, more PE will be discharged into the sea, “while low inflows and high usage means that no PE will be discharged.” Asked whether they have a valid permit to discharge effluent into the Atlantic, Gebhardt said: “Yes, the Municipality of Swakopmund has a permit. The PE complies with the requirements of the disposal permit and the quality thereof is monitored.”
Environmentalists are nevertheless concerned about the potential impact of the effluent on coastal and marine life. Some claimed that the practise is undermining Swakopmund’s status as a premier tourist destination. It however emerged at a press briefing with Namibia’s Environmental Commissioner Teofilus Nghitila in Swakopmund on Wednesday that the entire practice of pumping semi-purified effluent into the sea is likely to come to an end as soon as the new reservoir outside town has been completed. Gebhardt explained that “The [new sewage] plant located near the waste dump is completed and operational. A new purified effluent reservoir has been built near the airport and is being finally tested hydraulically and will be in operation - if tested successfully - within a month. No waste water will be pumped there. It shall be purified effluent, which will be distributed from there to all the existing and new green areas in town and the suburbs.” Nghitila said that all risks to the fragile environment, such as the release of substances into the sea, require ongoing monitoring to assess and mitigate any potentially negative effects on the environment.

Export Standards for horse mackerel Continued from page 1
All food meant for human consumption, including frozen, canned, fresh fish etc and fishery products must adhere to the Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) in order to be accepted into many European countries. The NSI is planning to adopt this food safety control standard for Namibian horse mackerel ex-
ports and later on other fishing exports. This means that there will be microbiological testing for Echoli, Staphylocous, and Salmonella as well as histamine testing on a monthly basis to ensure that products adhere to this standard. If the results of these monthly tests are negative, the NSI will need to
certify each batch, earmarked for export. There is currently a food testing laboratory in Walvis Bay and the NSI is looking to set up a possible food laboratory in Lüderitz as well. The outcome of this meeting will be especially relevant to all local businesses involved in the exportation of horse mac-
kerel, whether exporting to Mozambique or anywhere else in the world. In mid-September (15-19 September) the National Fish Inspection Institute (INIP) of Mozambique will travel to Namibia to audit the NSI and inspect whether fishing products, particularly horse mackerel, will be ready for export.

WACS repairs to start this weekend Repair work on the West Africa Cable System (WACS) off Namibia's coast is scheduled to start over the weekend, says Telecom Namibia.
The landing of the cable in Swakopmund in 2011
The WACS is a 14 530 kilometer long sub marine communications cable system, connecting South Africa to Europe via West African countries, including Namibia and was officially put into operation on 26 June 2012. The total cost for the cable system was US$650 million. During the morning of 29 May, a cable fault affecting all traffic transiting via the Swakopmund cable station was detected on the WACS. Telecom Namibia in coordination with the WACS Consortium are preparing for the cable repair activity both on land, at the Swakopmund beach area, and at sea, starting tomorrow and the repair work is expected to end next Saturday, depending on various factors such as weather conditions, the outcome of the preliminary on-site inspection and development of the repair
vessel. The repair activities for the shallow water cable will require large industrial equipment to be deployed on the Swakopmund beach, while the large cable repair vessel will again operate very close to the shore to attend to the laying and jointing at the shore-end of the cable. The beach area will be closed for the duration of the repair activities. During the repair period, Telecom Namibia will reroute Internet traffic through other undersea cable systems to mitigate the impacts on customers. The WACS is transporting the majority of Internet traffic for Namibia, Botswana and Zambia and is considered of international importance.

Maatskappy vat minderjariges vas Marshallino Beukes
Met die skoolvakansie op hande en minderjariges wat die strate op horings neem in gedagte, het die G4S Sekuriteitsfirma in Swakopmund verlede Vrydagaand hierdie sosiale probleem by die horings gepak. Die manne van die bogenoemde firma het hul hande vol gehad met minderjariges wat laatnag op straat, asook in ontspanningsplekke vir volwassenes was. Hulle was verplig om ‘n hele paar reise na die Mondesa polisiestasie te onderneem om die sondebokke ‘n voorsmakie van die grootmenswêreld te gee. Tussendeur moes hulle ook op klagtes van onder meer rusverstoring, poging tot inbraak en huismoles reageer. Dit was duidelik dat baie van hierdie minderjariges die optrede as ‘n grap beskou het en dit glad
nie ernstig opgeneem het nie. Wat skokkend was, was die feit dat dit in die meeste gevalle die dogters was, wat die situasie as komies beskou het. Kinders van so jonk as 13 jaar oud is deur G4S opgeraap, waarna hulle by die polisiestasie goed die Leviete voorgelees is. Daarna is hul ouers en voogde gekontak om hulle te gaan haal. Die ouers is ook baie streng gewaarsku. Sommige besigheidseienaars besef nog nie die erns van die saak nie, aangesien hulle steeds nie kontrole uitvoer rakende die toegang van minder-
jariges in vermaakplekke vir volwassenes nie. Nog steeds blyk hul bankbalanse belangriker as die jeug se veiligheid en toekoms te wees. Die namib times het met die Mondesa bevelvoerder, Inspekteur Nghaamwa, gesels en hy het ook sy kommer rakende hierdie situasie uitgespreek. Hy het aangevoer dat besigheidseienaars, wat hulle die afgelope naweek skuldig gemaak het aan bogenoemde misdryf, vandeesweek onder vier oë gespreek gaan word. Die Wet maak voorsiening vir boetes wat aan oortreders opgelê kan
word. Die mening van jan publiek is dat daardie wet toegepas moet word en dat die ouers ook beboet moet word. Dit is beslis kommerwekkend dat dogters (en seuns) van so jonk as 13/14 teen 03:00 in die oggend nog op straat is en strenger maatreëls in hierdie verband word vereis. Voorts was dit ietwat teleurstellend dat slegs een polisievoertuig deur die verloop van die aand in die spesifieke area opgemerk is en die sigbaarheid van geregsdienaars, ten einde hierdie probleem hok te slaan, word ook sterk aanbeveel.

Man assaults girlfriend’s sister for sex Mavourlene Gaes Andreas Tjindjumba (27) appeared in the Walvis Bay Magistrates' court on Thursday on charges of indecent assault and threatening to kill his girlfriend’s sister. According to the victim, she was drinking at a bar in Kuisebmond with her boyfriend. Her boyfriend left the bar and a while later she also went out to look for him because she wanted to go home. She testified that she met Tjindjumba outside and he asked her where she was going. The victim told him she wanted to go home, because it was late but that she was also looking for her boyfriend. The accused allegedly told the complainant not to worry, saying he was going to escort her home. “We walked in silence for a while until all of a sudden he slapped me and I fell down,” the victim explained. She said she asked him
why he was slapping her and he then told her he wanted to sleep with her. The victim told him she could not do it because he was her sister’s boyfriend but he persisted and said he was going to rape her and kill her afterwards so that nobody would link him to the offence. The victim said the accused started touching her inappropriately and as she resisted his indecent assault, a struggle ensued and Tjindjumba dragged her along on the ground. She told the court that she shoved him away and started calling out to her friend, who lives nearby, for help. When her friend ran outside and saw the
struggle, she too called out for help. More people came out of the house and managed to rescue the victim. Tjindjumba denied the charges as alleged by the complainant. According to the witnesses in court, Tjindjumba fled from the scene when he was asked what he was doing. “I am not denying anything, but I will say that none of the things she is saying are true and that she probably just wants me to go to jail,” Tjindjumba told Magisrate Andre Matulich. He was found guilty of the offence and slapped with a fine of N$1 000 or three months imprisonment on both charges.

Minderjariges moet glo gelos word… Marshallino Beukes My herhaalde beriggewing aangaande minderjariges in vermaakplekke vir volwassenes het wyd en syd kommentaar ontlok. In die meeste gevalle was dit positiewe kommentaar, maar wat ‘n doring in die vlees is, is die feit dat sommige persone se gevoel is dat hierdie kinders gelos moet word dat hulle hul eie koppe stamp. Ten antwoord hierop wil ek noem dat ek beslis nie soos Nero viool gaan speel terwyl Rome brand nie. Ouers sal moet verantwoordelikheid vir hul kinders begin vat en net so sal besighede waar alkohol verkoop word, hul prioriteite agtermekaar moet kry. Daardie jong kinders is die mense wat eendag die land moet lei. Sien u kans om deur ‘n spul alkoholiste en drankverslaafdes gelei te word? Ek dink nie so nie. Hierdie kinders, veral die dogters, wat laatnag op straat is of uithang in grootmensplekke, kan verkrag of selfs vermoor
word en wie gaan dan lang trane huil? As joernaliste werk ons daagliks met soortgelyke gevalle en weet maar te goed hoedat spyt in baie gevalle te laat kom vir slagoffers se naasbestaandes of families. Ek bid dit vir niemand toe nie. Ek is ook oor die kole gehaal aangesien ek genoem het dat G4S ‘n goeie werk gedoen het, rakende die minderjariges en dat slegs een polisievoertuig opgemerk was. Die Sekuriteitsfirma is nie werklik verplig om dit te doen nie, maar as verantwoordelike wetstoepassers neem hulle dit op hul
skouers. Ek kan eerstehands getuig dat G4S tussendeur ook blitsvinnig op alarms en ander noodoproepe reageer het. Ek doen weereens ‘n beroep op die polisie om strenger op te tree, meer sigbaar te wees en om daadwerklike aksie teen oortreders te neem. Waarom word sekere besigheidseienaars oorgesien en andere, wat hulle wel by die wet hou, geteiken? Hiermee sluit ek hierdie besprekingspunt af, maar die namib times gaan definitief voortgaan om die situasie onder ‘n vergrootglas te plaas.

WHY? The marine resources are limited and currently some of them are overfished or over collected. It is necessary that everybody uses them wisely and carefully to secure the future harvesting needs by protecting the stock. Quantity/number of marine resources harvestable, minimum size limits of fish and crayfish that can be caught, open season etc. help to manage stocks to avoid the total disappearance of some species in our waters. Do not leave bait or fish on the beach! Either take it home or return it to the sea. This food attracts scavengers like jackals and gulls that prey on other bio-diversity. When you are back home after the holiday, it also inflates the predator population. Where can you get a license for angling, crayfish diving & bait/mussels collection?

Accidents involving children worrying
Staff Reporter
Deputy Mayor Benson Uakumbua
Picture by Bernabé Blaauw
During the Ordinary Council meeting in the Kuisebmond Council Chambers on Tuesday last week, the deputy mayor of Walvis Bay, Councillor Benson Uakumbua, delivered a speech on behalf of the Mayor Uilika Nambahu urging the community to watch out for the safety and wellbeing of youth and children roaming the streets. “I am concerned about the wellbeing and safety of these children, especially in light of the fact that fatal road accidents involving youth and specifically children of school going age are being reported in our city,” Uakumbua conveyed in the mayoral speech. “I would like to call on all parents and guardians to ensure that
the children in their care are not exposed to road traffic accidents and other preventable incidences while playing in the streets or being in the streets at night.” Similarly, all parents who have children riding bicycles to schools are encouraged to ensure that their children are wearing the prescribed helmet at all times and wear visible clothing to
avoid becoming a victim of road accidents. There has also been an increase in binge drinking amongst our youth and adults alike. Young drivers are making themselves guilty of speed limit violations while others are simply testing their abilities on the roads at the expense of other road users and their own passengers. “I believe it is high time
that novice road users understand that their vehicles or the vehicles they drive are not extensions of themselves and as such, should not be used to showcase or demonstrate their driving capabilities,” Uakumbua continued. “I will continue to encourage both our municipal traffic and Nampol Traffic and further other law enforcement agents to
assist in minimising road traffic crashes on our roads.” It is only through a multisectorial approach comprising of the community, law enforcement agents and other roleplayers can we make a meaningful positive impact on our road safety situation,” the deputy mayor concluded.

Dear namib times, while I think it is commendable that you dedicate nearly two entire pages in your Tuesday edition at your own cost to present four slides from the International SOS Ebola Awareness Toolbox Talk presentation (while the Ministry of Health and Social Services so obviously completely skips that chance of informing the public about the disease), I do have an issue with the fact that you select only four out of a total of 19 (!) slides - especially that you apparently avoid to present slides 3 and 9, making it appear as if the worst that could happen when you contract the Ebola virus is that “you can become very sick”.

Calling for stories, memories and old photographs for a book celebrating 20 years after Walvis Bay’s reintegration A unique opportunity for anyone with links to Walvis Bay to be personally involved in a book on the town’s reintegration into Namibia - and the 20 years of progress hence. Municipality of Walvis Bay appointed Virtual Marketing to produce such a book. This year’s commemoration of the 20th anniversary of our reintegration into Namibia offered us an opportunity to celebrate the uniqueness of this town, and to reveal what went on behind the scenes to facilitate this momentous event. Many ordinary Namibians have interesting stories to tell about things that happened to them personally, especially during the period between
Namibia’s declaration of independence in 1990 and Walvis Bay’s reintegration into the fledgling sovereign state in 1994. Our approach entails telling the historical road to reintegration through people’s memories, anecdotes, stories and moments gathered from a wide spectrum of wellknown and ordinary people. The team asks anybody with relevant stories or photo-
graphs to please contact Elaine at elaine@whonami bia.com or 081 652 3830; Hannelie at hannelie@who namibia.com or 081 688 9065; or Thea at thea. visser@whonamibia.com or 081 271 9255.

IPM Namibia adopts global HR Standards for Namibia The President of the Institute of People Management of Namibia, Mr Tim Ekandjo, officially launched the HR Standards & Global HR & Management Qualifications in the capital today. The launch took place at the Polytechnic of Namibia and was attended by over 70 HR professionals from different corporates including that of the public sector. Speaking at the launch, Mr Ekandjo said that IPM Namibia’s primary mandate was to ensure that the HR profession becomes a respected discipline and that is why IPM adopted the slogan, “The Face of HR Excellence in Namibia”. “Our agenda is therefore to ensure that HR members can hold their heads high alongside their colleagues in other professions. We can however only do so when we are properly structured and when there is professionalism across the board, and not with a select few.” Ekandjo said that this launch is therefore paramount in that it marks a significant milestone in HR’s journey of excellence. “The HR Standards will enable us to benchmark ourselves against international standards desig-
ned in Africa for Africa! The significance of the qualification we are launching here today is that it was designed in Southern Africa, by Africans for all of Africa meaning it is relevant to the challenges we face as HR professionals in Africa.” Namibia has become only the 6th country in Africa to adopt the global standards which will give the HR profession credibility. Ekandjo highlighted the disciplines of professionalism, a universal code of conduct, consistent standards and most importantly ethics and credibility. “I am therefore happy that this qualification will address all these disciplines and ensure a global standard he concluded.” Also speaking at the launch was the CEO of the South African Board of Personnel Practice, Mr Marius Meyer who shared insightful
information on the current state of the Human Resource profession and current trends and challenges. “We need to strengthen HR’s credibility but we cannot do so without standards and inconsistent practices, and this qualification will therefore raise the bar,” he said. The HR Standards qualification was workshopped by over 468 HR professionals across Africa who identified 11 HR competencies. The qualification has attracted great interest across the globe with over nine provinces in South Africa already implementing it, the USA, UK, Australia and the Netherlands in full swing and in Africa South Africa, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Botswana, Ghana and Namibia being well on course. Interested participants will register their interest with
IPM Namibia who will facilitate the courses. The Polytechnic of Namibia who is also a partner has agreed to provide facilities where the course will be
rolled out. Mr Ekandjo also announced that the 4th IPM Conference has been scheduled for the 13-14th October 2014 and all HR
professionals are encouraged to register for the Conference. The launch was co- sponsored by the IPM Namibia, Polytechnic of Namibia, Olthaver &
List, Telecom Namibia, Air Namibia, Nampower, Emergence Growth, Institute of Leadership & Management, SHRM and the SABPP.
Cross-border payments set for higher growth Institutions such as the World Bank and African Development Bank (AfDB) indicate that African countries only carry out about 15% of their trade with one another. However, SWIFT data on cross-border payments shows that the figure is slightly higher at 23%. “Intra-African trade is still relatively low though and ranks among the smallest levels of intra-regional trade globally. Almost 70% of the European Union’s trade takes place within the bloc,” says SWIFT head of Africa South, Hugo Smit. Improved cross border payment systems could facilitate intra-regional trade. Whilst intra-regional trade is determined by economic fundamentals of supply and demand, the lack of efficient regional payment systems could add significant costs to intra-regional trade. Steps that have been taken The Southern African Development Community (SADC) last year launched an electronic payments
platform for the bloc. Called the SADC Integrated Regional Electronic Settlement System (SIRESS), it is designed to allow transactions among banks in member countries to be settled in real time and without the need for the funds to flow through third-party clearing banks. SIRESS has so far been highly successful: Seven of SADC’s 15 members have already joined Three more are scheduled to join in the next few months. Around 40 commercial banks are currently participating. A large volume of trade-related transactions is already being settled through the system.
The next phase for SIRESS will be to accommodate low-value, or retail, transactions such as remittances, scheduled to be implemented by the end of September. Provided that the commercial banks’ systems can accommodate this it could pave the way for the transfer of small payment amounts within SADC. The many benefits of SIRESS SIRESS will not just eliminate unnecessary banking costs. It will also give governments and economists a more accurate picture of the levels of intraregional trade. With half of cross-border African payments being made in
dollars - and the flows thus going to the US, at least initially - it is difficult to assess African trading patterns, which makes it tough for policy-makers to forge strategies to boost regional commerce. Moreover, it is thought SIRESS will lead to greater financial inclusion. By eventually being able to handle remittances and small transactions, it will help bring flows that are currently cash-based into the formal financial system. “The big question is whether SIRESS can bring about greater trade within SADC. There is no guarantee that it will. But a system that makes the cross-border payments
process easier and for cost-efficient can only be good in the long-term for encouraging greater trading between southern African countries,” says Smit. About SWIFT SWIFT is a memberowned cooperative that provides the communica-
tions platform, products and services to connect more than 10 000 financial institutions and corporations in 212 countries and territories. SWIFT enables its users to exchange automated, standardised financial information securely and reliably, thereby lowering
costs, reducing operational risk and eliminating operational inefficiencies. SWIFT also brings the financial community together to work collaboratively to shape market practice, define standards and debate issues of mutual interest.

Valencio Morning “Wammie” Ntinda was born in the 80’s in Endola, a village in northern Namibia, where he attended school at Iipumbu Senior Secondary School. At school he used to freestyle with friends and it is here that he realised that God had given him an amazing voice. Wammie resides in Walvis Bay and the coastal town has been his home for the past five years. The humble artist had no trouble expressing his love for music and when asked where he gets his inspiration from he replied, “It comes from nature.” “I loved music so much that as a young boy, I used to make handmade guitars from small oil drums I found lying around, and sticks and wires to make the drums” he added. Wammie acknowledges it was not easy to
make it in the music industry but he chose to persevere. In 2009, he decided to go studio hunting so that he could record a few tracks from his song book. During his hunt, Wammie one day approached a complete stranger in the street and asked him if he knew of any recording studio. He was directed to Mtufu Records. When he eventually made his way to the studio, he found DJ Namupala and Karri playing the keyboard. “I asked them how much it would cost to record with them and they gave me a quotation for recording just one song,” he said. The quotation was
pricy considering that he was not employed at the time. He managed to raise enough money to record his first song that same year called “Vateleinge” which means help me in Oshiwambo. According to him the song received great airplay on radio stations across the country. Hearing his music being played on the radio was the kind of motivation he said he needed, to continue pursuing a career in music. Wammie went back to Mtufu Records in 2013 and this time he decided to record a full 19 track album titled “My signature”. Besides the album last year, he also released
two other songs, “Ekandona” meaning lady in Oshiwambo and “Limbwesha”. Wammie plans to release the album by the end of October
this year and concluded by saying that, although he came to Walvis Bay to look for a job and has got one now, music is still his passion.

Spring School at SSS Sharlien Tjambari The official opening of the Erongo Regional Spring School took place at Swakopmund Secondary School on Monday and learners from different towns and cultural backgrounds in the region came to the coastal town of Swakopmund to participate in this annual event. The Spring School serves to assist and prepare learners in the Erongo Region for the end of year examinations. A total of 300 Grade 12 learners from different high schools attended the week-long Spring School, which was hosted by Swakopmund Secondary School. In his opening remarks
the Inspector of Education, Mr E Uirab, said opportunity comes once in a lifetime. He also stated that the key to success is education and that learners should put their prime focus on education and put everything else aside. The inspector of Education for the Swakopmund Circuit, Mr E
Olivier, in his motivational speech noted that the outcome of learners’ participation and commitment of this Spring School is in their own hands. “The choice is totally yours. Only you can decide what you are willing to sacrifice, what you are willing to offer, and what you are willing to contribute.

I trust that you understand that whatever your decision, only you and you alone will benefit from that or lose out this golden opportunity,” Olivier said. The opening of the Spring School for Grade 10 learners is taking place today at Coastal High School in Swakopmund.

Fünf Antworten auf Helgas Preisausschreiben: Die Sieger Gesundheitsfragen Tagebuch Mit Sunblocker endlich stundenlang lekker tänen.
1. Beugt Olivenöl Herzgefäßerkrankungen, insbesondere Herzinfarkt, vor? Ja, der Anteil des schädlichen LDLCholesterins sinkt durch das Antioxidans Polyphenol im Olivenöl. Es ist allerdings unbedingt darauf zu achten, dass ein ,,Extravirgin” (Natives), kaltgepresstes Qualitätsöl gekauft wird. Die meisten kommerziell erhältlichen Olivenöle haben einen sehr geringen Polyphenol-Gehalt, da sie industriell verarbeitet und oftmals lange und schlecht gelagert werden. 2. Funktioniert Hustensaft? Nein. Die meisten Hustensäfte, die über den Ladentisch verkauft werden, haben eine zu geringe Dosis Kodein und Dextromethorphan, als dass sie wirksam sein könnten. Nur Hustenblocker, die ältere Antihistaminika enthalten, erleichtern den Husten. 3. Kann die Einnahme von zuckerhaltigen Erfrischungsgetränken ( Soft-
Folge haben? Ja. Durch zuckerhaltige Limonaden und Ähnliches schnellt der Blutzuckerspiegel rasch in die Höhe. Solche Blutzuckerspritzen schaden langfristig den Insulin-bildenden Zellen in der Bauchspeicheldrüse. Wer seinen Durst täglich mit gezuckerten Getränken löscht, hat deshalb ein erhöhtes Risiko für Diabetes mellitus Typ 2. 4. Bieten Sunblocker d e n g a n z e n Ta g Schutz? Nein. Der Name täuscht: Ein Sunblocker kann die Sonne nicht endlos blocken, sondern zeichnet sich nur durch einen besonders hohen Lichtschutzfaktor aus (30 und mehr). Die Gefahr dabei: Viele Menschen fühlen sich damit sicher geschützt und vergessen, den Sonnenschutz in regelmäßigen Abständen zu erneuern und vor allem gleichmäßig aufzutragen. 5. Ist Glutamat ein Rauschgift? Ja. Trotzdem wird die umstrittene Substanz als sogenannter “Geschmacksverstärker”
Swakopmund (sk) Zum 75sten Geburtstag bekam Hannelore Frowerk aus Walvis Bay von Ihrer Freundin eine Reise zur und einen Aufenthalt auf der Solitaire Gästefarm geschenkt. Getankt wurde in Solitaire, wo Frau Frowerk das frische Grab des Wüstenbäckers Percy McGregor alias Moose fotografierte. Es fehlt eigentlich nur noch ein Grabstein in der Form eines Stücks Apfelstrudel.
Der im Januar verstorbene Wüstenbäcker hat Solitaire mit seinem Apfelkuchen berühmt gemacht. Foto: Hannelore Frowerk
in unzähligen Fertignahrungsmitteln und Würzmitteln eingesetzt, obwohl es sich hierbei um einen der schwersten Gehirnzerstörer handelt, der in Schweden daher seit langem in Babynahrung verboten ist. “Geschmacksverstärker” sind keine Gewürze, sondern Substanzen, die unabhängig vom Aroma eines Nahrungsmittels ein künstliches Hungergefühl im Gehirn simulieren, um den Absatz theoretisch geschmacklich ungenießbarer Produkte zu ermöglichen. Beim Glutamat handelt es sich, neurologisch betrachtet, um ein Rauschgift. Es ist eine suchterzeugende Aminosäureverbindung, die über die Schleimhäute ins Blut geht und von dort direkt in unser Gehirn gelangt, weil die recht kleinen Moleküle des Glutamats unsere schützende Blut-Hirnschranke zum Teil problemlos überwinden.

Locker vom Hocker In Auto und Hitze gefangen!
Liebe Küstenleser, gerade hat er wieder für Schlagzeilen gesorgt: der Hitzetod im Auto. Ein 33jähriger Mann aus Georgia/USA hat seinen einjährigen Sohn Cooper sieben Stunden lang alleine im Auto sitzen lassen und so dessen Hitzetod herbeigeführt. Vor etwa drei Jahren ist der Berliner Dackel Ajax fast zum Opfer seines Auto-Gefängnisses geworden und musste von einem Arzt gerettet werden. Sein Herrchen hatte ihn am Weidendamm in Berlin-Mitte im Auto gelassen. Zunächst kein großes Problem, weil der Wagen im Schatten stand und dadurch erträgliche Temperaturen herrschten. Doch die Erledigungen des Dackel-Besitzers dauerten länger als geplant. Der Wagen stand schliesslich in der prallen Sonne, und es herrschte eine unerträgliche Hitze. Als sein Herrchen zum Auto zurückkehrte, lag Ajax bereits hechelnd auf dem Rücken. Der Hundebesitzer besorgte Wasser in einem Restaurant und rief einen Tierarzt an. Dieser legte dem völlig ausgelaugten Langhaarrdackel, dessen Körper auf 41 Grad e r h i t z t w a r, e i n e Infusion an. Ein Eimer Wasser und ein nasses Handtuch brachten Abkühlung. Spätestens beim Lesen über einen fünften, sechsten oder siebten Hitzetod-Fall wird man wahrscheinlich kopfschüttelnd ob der Ver-
zetod eines anderen auf dem Gewissen haben. Mein Sohn Andreas und ich waren im heißen Sommer im Januar dieses Jahres mit dem Auto unterwegs. Da wir die Klimaanlage laufen hatten, waren alle Fensterscheiben hochgekurbelt. In Omaruru beschlossen wir, uns bei SPAR ein kaltes Getränk zu kaufen. Ich blieb im Auto, Andreas stieg aus, knallte die Tür zu und schaltete total unbewusst die Zentralverriegelung ein. Es dauerte nicht lange, da lief mir der Schweiß in Bächen am Körper herunter. Der Knopf zum Fenster-

Kia reveals first official photos of third generation Sorento First photos of the all-new Kia Sorento released today confirm that the third generation of the popular SUV will feature a new look, with bold, swept-back styling and sophisticated surface detailing. Longer, lower and wider, with an extended wheelbase, the new Sorento builds on the success of the outgoing model, delivering a premium look and feel, with more space and numerous innovative features. With the brand's hallmark design features and a more mature appearance, the new model is instantly recognisable as a Sorento. The new look is an evolution of the current vehicle, incorporating fresh visual elements inspired by the Kia Cross GT concept that debuted at the 2013 Chicago Auto Show, carrying over the long bonnet and the distinctive treatment of the wide D-pillars from the previous generation. The exterior styling of the new Sorento was led by Kia's Namyang design studio in Korea, with significant levels of input from the brand's Frankfurt, Germany and Irvine, California design
studios. The front of the new Sorento features a larger, more upright 'tiger-nose' grille, with a distinctive three-dimensional diamond pattern, and long, swept-back headlamps. The lower roofline, higher beltline and more muscular, rounded shoulders at the rear give the car a dramatic appearance. The sleeker look is enhanced by an increase in length (+95 mm to 4,780 mm)* and a 15 mm reduction in height (down to 1,685 mm), while the 80 mm longer wheelbase (now 2,780 mm) ensures more passenger space in all three seat rows. Soon-Nam Lee, Vice President of Overseas Marketing, Kia Motors Corp., said, "While we have retained the name based on the tremendous success of the outgoing model, the all-new Sorento has been completely redesigned and re-engineered, and promises to surprise customers
with its thoroughly updated styling, a host of new convenience and
safety technologies, as well as enhanced space, driving comfort and
handling response." The all-new Kia Sorento will be showcased
in Korea in late August and make its European premiere on Thursday,
2 October, at the 2014 Paris Motor Show.

Swacapella Koorlede To my Sunshine daughter Alone in a faraway place, a lovely girl is sitting. Maybe she is smiling or maybe she is crying. The 17th August - what a memorable date for your dad. Long ago I promised you that I would always be there for you on your birthday. For the past 26 years I fulfilled that promise. I was always there when you woke up on your birthday to congratulate you and lift you up on my lap. But this year it all changed. You are no longer here so that we can celebrate your birthday together. The only thing that has been left behind for us to treasure is the beautiful moments that we shared. A time ago you were telling your mom and dad that it would be your last birthday. If we only knew what you meant. Thank you for the wonderful daughter you were.
Happy Birthday - DAD

Happy 1st Birthday in Heaven to my baby: "Carike” I wish you were here today for your 27th birthday even for just a little while so I could say Happy Birthday "Baba" and see your beautiful smile. The only gifts today will be the gifts you left behind; the laughter, joy and happiness...precious memories...the best kind. Today I’ll do my very best to try and find a happy place...struggling to hide my heavy heart and the tears on my face. I'll sit quietly and look at your picture thinking of you with love; hoping you're doing OK in Heaven up above. May the angels hold you close Shonnie and sing you a happy song... and I'll be sending wishes to you today and all year long.... I love you and miss you so so much each and every day.

Coastal cricket kicks off
The 18th annual Coastal Junior Cricket Festival (CJCF) will this year be held from 18 - 22 August.
Tanya Uys was the only rider to secure her 2nd qualifier for the FEI champs next year 70cm class. Teagan van der Pool won the 80cm class on her horse Spice Gold leading the dressage, show jumping as well as the cross-country test. Kira Rohloff won gold for the 90cm class. The competitors in the 1m class were Daniela Kolb on Manna from Heaven, Tanya Uys on Locarno Millennium and Holger Kleyenstuber on Rathmor Sapphire. These three
riders attempted the second from three qualifiers which are needed in order to ride in the International FEI One Star Eventing tournament. Tanya and Millennium were the only pair this tournament, to secure their 2nd qualification round. The 3rd Qualifier will be held at the Claratal Stud / Gymkhana Club in Windhoek on 23/24 August. This will also be the first official round to be
held on the new Eventing track at Claratal. The RVS will host the 4th and second last Qualifier on the Sphinxblick Stud near Usakos on 13/14 September. This will also be the 7th RVS Sphinxblick Eventing tournament. In November, the RVS will host the final Qualifier, which will be the FNB Namibian Eventing Championships 2015.
Organised by Welwitschia Cricket, a Sub Union of Cricket Namibia, this year’s event is sponsored by Walvis Bay Salt Refiners and will for the first time be known as the Walvis Bay Salt Refiners Coastal Junior Cricket Festival. The festival is dedicated to all junior school-going cricketers (under 11 and under 13) and focuses on cricket development and the promotion of the game whilst also giving young cricketers and coaches the opportunity to prepare for the upcoming school leagues. In 2003 and 2006 the
festival won the International Cricket Council (ICC)’s development awards for the best junior cricket promotional program-development initiative. Many senior Namibian cricket players played their first ever cricket matches as juniors at this festival. Eleven members of the Namibian u/19 squad who participated in the 2014 ICC u/19 Cricket World Cup in Dubai played at this festival in 2007 & 2008. The organsers look forward to this year’s cricket festival and are certain that the new junior faces will make the most of this oppor-
tunity and enjoy the fun. They also hope this festival will again give special memories to all those u/13 players in action for the last time at this festival. This year’s participating teams include Windhoek Afrikaans Privaatskool (WAP u/11 and u/13), Windhoek Gymnasium Private School (u/11 and u/13), !Nara Primary School (u/11), !Nara PS Girls (u/11), Walvis Bay Primary School (u/13), Namibia Girls (u/13), St George’s School (u/13), Pro-Ed Academy (u/11 and u/13) and Combined XI (u/13).

WBPHS rugby pluk vrugte Bernabé Blaauw
Harde werk en ‘n streng kondisionering program in die gimnasium het gesorg dat drie rugbyspanne van Walvisbaai Privaat Hoërskool (WBPHS) na die finale van die skole ligas deurgedring het wat vandag en môre by die Hage Geingob Rugbystadion in Windhoek plaasvind. Mnr Willie van Zyl, hoofafrigter van die eerste rugbyspan, het gesê dat hulle in September verlede jaar begin het met ‘n kondisionering program in die gimnasium ter voorbereiding van die 2014 rugby seisoen. Volgens hom is dit die eerste keer in die geskiedenis dat drie van die “Burgers Equipment Walvis Bay” rugbyspanne van WBPHS na die finale van die skole ligas deurgedring het en dat dit die trotste oomblik is in sy afrigting loopbaan van 24 jaar by die skool. “Wys jou net dat harde werk altyd vrugte afwerp. Ek is innig dankbaar vir die span se toegewydheid en die ouers se ondersteuning,” het hy bygevoeg. Die 0/14A span speel vandag om 14:30 teen Privaatskool Elnatan van Stampriet nadat hulle vir MK Gertze Hoërskool van Rehoboth geklop het. Die tweede span speel
môre om 10:30 teen Dr Lemmer Hoërskool, ook van Rehoboth, in die finaal van die 0/19C liga nadat hulle Pro Ed Akademie van Swakopmund se eerste span met 19 - 17
in die halfeindstryd geklop het. Die eerste span speel môre-aand in die skild finaal van die Superliga teen Tsumeb Gimnasium vir die brons medalje.

behoort vir Kudus 'n goeie aanduiding te gee hoe gereed hul is om volgende week vir Rehoboth aan te pak. Die wedstryd skop af om 15:15 en Kudus
nooi almal uit om die dag te kom geniet. Hekgeld is N$20 per volwassene N$10 per skolier en N$10 per voertuig. Albei Kudu spanne
speel volgende week teen Rehoboth 1 en Unam 2 onderskeidelik alhoewel daar nog onsekerheid is oor waar dit sal plaasvind.
