Ministry to introduce

hake management plan Dorcas Mhungu

EBH, Younsters, champions

A consultative workshop was held in Walvis Bay on Tuesday to accord hake fishing right holders and Stakeholders the opportunity to deliberate the proposed Hake Management Plan and identify aspects needing attention and possible improvement.

Officially opening the workshop, the Minister of Fisheries and Marine Resources, Mr Bernhard Esau told delegates that the purpose of the plan is to set goals and objectives as well as management for hake fisheries. He said the plan will bring together in one document the relevant provisions as well as policies with current governance and management of Namibia

hake resources. The hake season commences on 1 November.

Minister Esau also said the plan will assist in bringing the country closer to Vision 2030 goals in terms of the ministry’s vision that says Namibia’s marine resources and habitat should significantly contribute to the economy without threatening biodiversity or the functioning of the national quota

system in a dynamic external environment.

“Today there are over 100 right holders compared to less than 40 in the past. The picture has totally changed from a narrow participatory level to a broad based participatory field. We have more players so the interests of our right holders have also changed, so we need to revisit the plan,” the

minister said.

The chairperson of the Namibia Hake Fishing Industry Association, Mr Matti Amukwa said the hake industry in Namibia still faces challenges which are threatening the competitiveness of the industry particularly the future of the land based factories and the level of onshore value addition.

Mr Amukwa said he fluctuating Total Allowable Catch (TAC) in the past years has made it difficult to plan and the land based operations for hake require huge capital investment and high levels of employment.

He further said based on these factors, it is critical that the sustainability and stability of the resource be there for successful onshore operations.

Addressing the fisheries minister he said the 70/30 quota split should be applied to every right holder without exception to increase competitiveness of the land based

operations and balance the current advantage of sea frozen operations.

“If this is implemented it will end the controversial conversions from wet to freezer quota,” Amukwa reasoned.

Speaking in support of the proposed Hake Management Plan, the association chairperson said the introduction of the plan will strengthen the association’s existing commitment to encourage sound management measures and regulations to guarantee long term sustainability of the resource.

Testing the barge

Madelaine Laubscher

Skeleton Coast Marine Services and Xtreme Project Namibia launched the m/v Dory, a new barge at the Walvis Bay lagoon, yesterday.

The namib times joined Skeleton Coast Marine Services cc owners Mr and Mrs Janse Van Rensburg and the crew members for the event.

The executive accounts officer and launch manageress, Mrs Cheslyn Mouton said the new barge was purchased in South Africa and transported to Walvis Bay where it was modified.

After 28 days of hard work the crew finailly completed the exercise.

The barged has a 10 ton carrying capacity and is valued at N$1 million.

“Skeleton Coast Marine

Services and Xtreme Project Namibia specialises in the launching of boats, cargo supply, crew changes, fresh water up to 50 ton per day and taking out provisions to vessels,” said Mouton.

According to her the company is the only agency for service and repair of Yamaha outboards, the service and repair of Volvo Penta engines, part sales and various shipping agencies are making use of their launching services.

“We cater for all types of Rigs lying in

anchorage and facilitate crew changes from early mornings and late after hours as per request.

The port captain of Namibian Port Authority, Mr Kufuna allowed us to operate and do crew changes in an X base area of the small craft harbour and we appreciate this a lot,” said Mouton and shared that the barge will also serve as a diving platform.

Mr Janse Van Rensburg is a member of Xtreme Projects Namibia which jointly operates with Skeleton Coast Marine

Services and Xtreme Projects Namibia within the marine industry.

The company also facilitates the renting out of fenders, barges and tanks or cages.

All vessels operate within port limits and 40 miles offshore providing launching and diving support and supplying cargo.

Main Subcontractor, Xtreme Projects Namibia, specialises in vessel survey, salvage, pollution cleaning, marine spill response, vessel charter, waste skips, and bioreme-

diation.

The company is well qualified and adequately equipped to deal with the removal of sludge and cleaning petroleum tanks, site establishments, degassing, disposals and the removal of pollutants from vessels.

A second subcontractor, the Subtech Group, specialises in the provision of marine services, hydro graphic survey, marine construction, providing offshore services to the oil and gas industry and marine logistics.

Dormac workers speak out

More than thirty employees of Dormac Marine Engineering staged a peaceful protest on Monday and handed a petition containing numerous contentious issues and demands to the company management.

The petition state that workers have been working at the company for more than four years as casual employees and were not told why they have not been made permanent employees.

They further allege that they are denied benefits stipulated in the Labour Act such as annual leave days, compassionate leave, transport and meal allowances if they work at night (overtime).

They claim they have not been compensated adequately as a result of their casual worker

contracts.

The workers also demanded that they must be provided with proper benefits such as medical aid, housing allowances, pension, two sets of protective clothing per year and that all employees doing the same jobs be remunerated equally and be fairly compensated for the period they have been underpaid.

According to them some long serving employees are for unknown reasons receiving lower salaries than recently appointed workers.

They also accuse the workshop manager of calling them derogatory names. The workers also asked management to stop pleading ignorance to the complaints they occasionally forward for attention. “Our human resources department is based in Durban and all matters such as simple disciplinary hearings are managed and done from South Africa.”

The workers demanded that this practise be stopped.

They further allege that their representatives are being victimised by

getting suspended and charged with meaningless charges.

They also called on the Employment Equity Commissioner to intervene and to conduct an investigation into the way Dormac operates because South Africans are allegedly being afforded jobs that can be done by ably qualified Namibians.

Dormac representative, Mr Nyambe Kamwi received the petition on behalf of the General Manager, Mr Andy Kollin. Ms Nicole Roos (Personal Assistant to the GM) informed the

newspaper that he was out of the country and would only be available to comment on the petition on Monday.

The workers drafted the petition after Mr Paulus Awala, the Namibian National Labour Organisation (NANLO) representative for the Erongo Region advised them on how to communicate with the Dormac management.

“There is no forum that facilitates dialogue between the management and the workforce at the company” he said.

Motorcyclist escapes injury Piquet Jacobs

An accident at the intersection of 6th Street and Rikumbi Kandanga Road in Walvis Bay caused a traffic jam during the lunch rush hour, on Wednesday afternoon.

According to the victim who was driving the mother cycle, a white Land Cruiser, which was coming from the direction of the Namport traffic lights and was supposed to turn into 6th street, failed to give right of way to the oncoming

motorcycle.

When the motorcyclist saw that he there was going to be an accident, he jumped off the motorcycle which caused it to slide on the tarred road and end up under a white Mercedes Benz sedan, which was behind

the Land Cruiser.

The driver of the Land Cruiser, after giving his details to the motorbike rider, left the scene before traffic officials arrived.

Fortunately no one was injured in the accident.

Minister angry about HIV+ women who refuse ARV treatment Jade McClune The Minister of Health and Social Services says he is deeply concerned about pregnant women who are HIV-positive and yet refuse anti-retroviral (ARV) treatment that may help prevent the trans-mission of the virus from mother to child.

Minister Saara Kuugongelwa-Amadhila unveiling the plaque

DBN opens first branch in Dorcas Mhungu Walvis Bay The Minister of Finance, Saara Kuugongelwa-Amadhila last Friday officially opened the Development Bank of Namibia (DBN) branch in Walvis Bay. Speaking at the inauguration ceremony, the Finance Minister said apart from the DBN's operations in Windhoek head office and the Ongwediva office, the Walvis Bay branch becomes DBN's first branch outside the capital.

The minister said the Walvis By branch has the potential to change the development finance landscape of the Erongo region because the town has so much to offer. She said the harbour town offers many investment opportunities. Besides being the mainstay of the fishing industry it also forms the hub for the Walvis Bay corridors that comprise a network of transport routes linking the port with the Trans-Kalahari, Trans-Caprivi, and Trans-Cunene corridors.

She said she applauds the role played by the Development Finance Institutions (DFI's) to mitigate poverty by making available financial services that the private sector is undeserving.“DFI's act as one of government's agencies to promote its social objectives, they seek to serve those segments that as a consequence of their location, risk, poor and volatile income or information capacity are typically not financially attractive to banks,” minister Kuugongelwa-Amadhila said.

She said because DFI's are financial institutions that benefit from concessionary financial resources and strive to improve the social welfare, most DFI's have a large share of Government ownership. Because the clientele DFI's serve are mostly under-privileged clients, sectors or regions, they are characterised by a higher risk tolerance and longer

investment horizon.

“The Bank will put emphasis on development of enterprise in rural areas. The Bank will not finance agriculture but the Bank would seek opportunities to finance secondary and tertiary industries related to agriculture, such as agro-processing as a source of employment as well as an underpinning of food security. The Bank will also focus more on women and youth entrepreneurs as the drivers of Namibia's future.

Speaking at the same event, the Chief Executive Officer, Martin Inkumbi, said that the opening of the DBN Erongo Office is expected to have far reaching impacts on development in Namibia.

He noted that development of the Erongo Region will have impact on all other regions. The Erongo Region, Walvis Bay in particular, is a gateway to the rest of the country. It also contains the largest concentration of mining activities, a key driver for the Namibian economy and development. Inkumbi also pointed to the potential for developing manufacturing in the region, as well as further tourism development.

He said DBN has a strong track record of providing finance for the Erongo Region, and that the new office would accelerate further provision of finance by providing immediate access to entrepreneurs and local authorities. Figures released by the Bank show that N$500 5 million has been approved for finance in the Erongo region since 2005, and that this has had impact on 995 new jobs and 1 541 temporary jobs. Of the finance, 89 per cent was allocated to previously disadvantaged Namibians.

SPYL condemns civilians keeping explosives

Marshallino Beukes The Swapo Party Youth League (SPYL) (Erongo Region) called for a press conference on Wednesday, in direct response to an explosion which occurred last Saturday in Swakopmund.

The explosion went off during a clean-up of the garage injuring 21-year old Chantelle Gaoses.

Chantelle was helping her mother’s employer, Mr Emwee van Blerk when a live rifle grenade accidentally fell and exploded.

Gaoses was severely injured, and lost her left leg.

“In light of this incident, it is clear that some of our people still have the mentality of war, or possibly destabilisation of the country,” Regional Secretary of SPYL (Erongo), Laina Shapange, noted.

She said SPYL is concerned that the explosion went off while the Founding Father, Dr Sam Nujo-

ma, President Hifikepunye Pohamba and the Prime Minister, Dr Hage Geingob, were at the coast when the incident happened.

“We are very disturbed of the possible intentions of those who possess such weapons in peacetimes,” Shapange commented.

SPYL (Erongo) is calling for the owner of the grenade to be interrogated, in order to determine what his intentions were, keeping such dangerous explosives at his house. The Youth League furthermore made an appeal to anyone, in possession of war weaponry at their homes, to hand it over to the police,

immediately. Members of the public are also encouraged to report anyone who owns such weapons.

The Namibian police are advised to continue educating the public to report any explosives, under the slogan, “Don’t touch it, Report it”.

Mr. Phillipus Heita (SWAPO regional coordinator) said in conclusion that the matter is now in the court’s hands and justice will prevail.

Swapo members present also commented that the reason the press conference was to share SPYL’s sentiment in regard of the tragic accident and not to judge the accused.

Verkeersbeampte gevonnis Nog ‘n sukses vir Anti-Korrupsie Swakopmund

Marshallino Beukes ‘n Sersant in die Swakopmund verkeersafdeling, die 52-jarige Johannes Geiseb, is vandeesweek op aanklag van korrupsie skuldig bevind en ‘n boete van N$15 000 of twee jaar tronkstraf opgelê.

Geiseb is op 12 Februarie 2013 ingevolge die AntiKorrupsie Wet, 2003 (Wet no. 8 van 2003) gearresteer.

Hy is aangekla vir ontvangs van vergoeding in ‘n vermoedelik onwettige transaksie, asook misbruik van sy kantoor en posisie.

In sy skulderkenning noem Geiseb dat hy ‘n persoon ingelig het van ‘n lasbrief vir haar inhegtenisname en dat sy

hof toe sal moet gaan.

Hy dui voorts aan dat sy aan hom genoem het dat sy nie die volle bedrag vir die boete het nie. Nadat hy blykbaar aan haar gesê het dat sy vir ‘n laer boete in die hof kan aansoek doen, het sy skynbaar aan hom gesê dat sy nie hof toe wou gaan nie en aangebied om ‘n bedrag geld aan hom te betaal, ten einde haar inhegtenisname en hofverskyning te ontduik.

“Ek het voor die versoeking geswig, nadat sy my na-ure genader het en N$700 aangebied het,” lui sy verklaring. Hierdie geld is later gekonfiskeer.

Volgens betroubare inligting het die persoon die Anti-Korrupsie Kommissie, te Swakopmund van hierdie transaksie in kennis gestel en hulle het Geiseb in ‘n lokval gelei, wat tot sy inhegtenisname aanleiding gegee het.

Hospitaalwerknemer in hof oor korrupsie Marshallino Beukes Mnr Servyn Alroy Denrico Engelbrecht, ‘n voormalige personeelbeampte by die Staatshospitaal in Walvisbaai, het Maandag in die Swakopmund Magistraatshof op 14 aanklagte van korrupsie verskyn.

Hierdie klagtes spruit voort nadat hy blykbaar sy posisie of kantoor vir eie gewin misbruik het. Volgens hoogs betroubare bronne het die hospitaal op daardie tydstip poste vir skoonmakers in Swakopmund en Walvisbaai geadverteer en die beskuldigde het dit skynbaar as ‘n gulde geleentheid gesien om ‘n paar dollar in die sak te steek.

Hy het volgens inligting aansoekers telefonies gekontak en aangebied om

toe te sien dat hulle wel die werk kry, teen betaling natuurlik. Bedrae wat opgedok is deur hierdie desperate werksoekers wissel tussen N$800 en N$2 500. Rofweg beloop die totale bedrag wat Engelbrecht na aanduiding bekom het ongeveer N$18 300. Hierdie is egter, volgens bronne, slegs die punt van die ysberg, aangesien baie meer aansoekers dalk ook hierdie streep getrek is, maar bang is om vorendag

te kom. Die koerant het ook vertroulik verneem dat die modus operandi van Engelbrecht en ‘n kollega van Windhoek, bykans dieselfde is. Laasgenoemde is ook deur die Anti-Korrupsie Kommissie vasgetrek.

Hierdie is net weereens ‘n aanduiding hoe desperaat persone vir werk is en ‘n dringende beroep word op die publiek gedoen om nie enige geld aan beamptes by Staats instansies te betaal vir “gunsies” nie.

Paladin not tolerating corruption Marshallino Beukes

Langer Heinrich Uranium Mine (Pty) Ltd, a member of the Paladin Energy Ltd group of companies, recently declared zero tolerance to corruption and expressed the need to prioritise staff training.

Paladin has a strong corporate culture which does not tolerate corrupt behavior and has a comprehensive compliance regime that applies to all staff and also third parties.

In the company’s Stakeholder Anti-Bribery and Corruption Sensitisation Document, corporate penalties for Paladin, if found guilty on charges of corruption/bribery, could be Australian $11 000 000, three times the value of the benefit reasonably attributable to the conduct, or 10% of their annual turnover during the relevant period. The company might also risk possible penalties or forfeiture of

profits, not to mention the possible loss of business and reputation and drop in share price.

Namibia has the highest maximum penalty for acts of corruption/bribery, compared to other countries where Paladin also has companies.

The maximum penalty in Namibia is 25 years imprisonment or a fine of N$500 000 (or both), while in Niger an offender could face up to 10 years imprisonment or a fine of 100 000 francs. The Corrupt Practices Act 1995 in Malawi indicates a 12 year imprisonment term and in Canada and Australia, respectively, one

might face 7 or 14 years behind bars. Paladin has a Compliance Committee, situated in Australia and possible policy violations can be reported to them, a manager, or supervisor via telephone, text, email, writing, or in person. These reports are kept confidential and are committed to proper investigation and corrective action.

Human Resources Manager at Langer Heinrich, Ms Ratonda Murangi, who conducted an interview with the namib times, made it very clear that Paladin has a no-nonsense approach in regard of corruption/bribery in their midst.

Oil or mud?

WESCO denies dumping oil Otis Finck

Mr Riaan Archer, Municipal Hazardous Waste Inspector refuted claims that WESCO illegally dumped oil at the Municipal Dumpsite recently.

The newspaper approached the Municipality of Walvis Bay for comment after a concerned resident summoned the newspaper on a Sunday afternoon to witness WESCO employees allegedly dumping oil illegally.

The namib times arrived at the scene and found workers who were busy tidying up.

On the site where they were working on, was a pool of oil. The men on site acknowledged that they work for WESCO. “You have caught us in the act” one of them remarked when the photographer started taking pictures.

WESCO Operations Manager, Arno Pretorius was also approached and he said that the company is a member of the Oil Recycling Committee and had applied for permission to dump mud on that particular day.

“There is a structured setup for dumping hazardous waste and we adhere to required procedures and are working hand in hand with all relevant stake holders.

We have been allocated an

area at the Municipal dumpsite for dumping nonprocessable oil which is thick with high water content. This is used to stabilise the dunes at the dumping site. WESCO obtained a permit from the Ministry of Mines and Energy to process used oil and to resell it. We are upgrading our plant to process nonprocessable oil and will be able to do so by the end of the year.

This will possibly solve some of the problems being experienced currently. For the time being oil waste is being disposed of at the municipal site because there is no alternative in place.”

According to Archer, WESCO is one of two companies that strictly adhere to dumping regulations.

“The oil you found was dumped on Friday.

I am aware that WESCO had an arrangement to dump sludge on the Sunday you visited the site.

The company has invested a considerable amount of money to ensure that they adhere to the requirements

and policies pertaining to the dumping of hazardous waste,” he pointed out and explained that the company had approached the Municipality with regard to the incident in question and requested special permission to dump sludge at the site.

He said an oilrig vessel was granted a limited time of nine days in the harbour to have mud removed from its bills. WESCO requested special permission and were granted such by the Municipality.

He claims that the Municipality monitored the exercise but when the newspaper arrived there was no municipality representative at the site.

Archer provided the namib times with written proof of WESCO’s application for a permit to dump Cement, Barite and Drilling Mud dated April 17, 2014.

The permit issued clearly stipulates what should be dumped, how it should be done and more importantly that,” Disposal may be done during office hours only and not over weekends and or on public

holidays. A Foreman or Supervisor must be present at all times.”

He said that the illegal oil dumping allegations against WESCO was unfounded and is sour grapes brought about by infighting amongst companies within the oil industry.

He fingered the newly founded smaller companies who do not have mechanisms in place to ensure that they follow the mandatory procedures but dump oil into the sewerage system.

Mr Kevin Adams, Walvis Bay Municipality Corporate Communications Manager also confirmed that the company in question was granted permission by the Department of Water, Waste and Environmental Management to deposit mud. “The company has always been consistent in following the guidelines as laid down by the department.

After drying up, a protective layer of oil mist is sprayed on top of the mud to prevent it from being blown away by the

Wesco workers cleaning themselves after the dumping exercise that the namib times witnessed wind. This process is monitored by the municipality’s hazardous waste expert. The mud originated from a vessel on which repair work is being done at the moment,” he said.

According to a source in the industry no dumping of hazardous waste is allowed on Sundays or on public holidays and a company should give the municipality notice prior to performing a dumping exercise.

“There should be no special or preferential treatment availed to certain companies. We are all required to separate water and sludge from removed oil and then store it so that it can be dumped on the allocated days under supervision.

At times we could not dump due to the facility

being closed” the caller who tipped the newspaper stated.

Another source told the newspaper that companies loose clients and jobs due to their storage facilities being filled up to capacity and them not being able to get rid of the hazardous waste. “I must however point out that the situation pertaining to illegal dumping activities being conducted has improved considerably since eight registered and recognised companies established a committee in conjunction with the municipality.

There are still some culprits and I think they are using other access roads to enter the dumping site and to dump illegally” he said and this defies the effort the municipality to install cameras at the entrance of

the sump site.

Some companies dump considerable amounts of oil after hours at manholes into the sewerage system or in the dunes.

The Municipality installed N$30 000 worth of CCTV cameras at the dumping site in order to monitor dumping activities and curb illegal dumping.

Any person or company found guilty of illegal dumping is liable to pay a N$1 000 spot fine.

Approximately 20 000 to 30 000 litres of oil were dumped illegally into the sewerage system in 2010 and 2011.

The Municipality had to spend thousands of dollars to rid the system of the oil which kills organisms and contributes to a poor quality purified affluent as an end product.

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.

Simon Elwen, coordinator of the Namibia Dolphin Project, said they have no idea why the fin whales were keeping so close to shore, but were happy to be able to see them close.

Fin whales (Balaeoptera physalus) are the second largest species of animal in the world, he explained.

“We only encountered two of them twice from the small boat just off Lüderitz, but saw an even bigger group of six animals about a week after that during our first ship survey of the Marine Protected Area. This is the (first) time I've ever seen a fin whale and the first time anyone is aware of, of a sighting of this species close to shore in Namibia,” Simon says.

He reports that “marine wildlife around Lüderitz is fantastic and strikingly different to what we see up in Walvis Bay, despite being only 400km to the south. There are several reasons for this, including the strength of the upwelling - which happens down here - creating a very rich and dynamic ocean, and also that the continental shelf is much closer to shore here (about 3040km compared to over 100km in Walvis), so we tend to get more 'offshore' species here including large, whales.”

However, on their way to conduct fieldwork at Lüderitz, they ran into some logistical problems when Elwen’s car broke down outside Keetmanshoop. He says of the 1 200km journey: “(it is) always good to spend some time down here, even if it's quite a challenge getting five people, one dog, a baby, a boat and a car full

25 000 expected at Joyce Meyer’s show

Madelaine Laubscher Joyce Meyer, the internationally renowned motivational speaker will visit Namibia in June to participate and to energise people from all walks of life in a three day festival, titled “The Festival of Life.”

According to the Joyce Meyer Ministries Namibia team, the show is being organised by the Joyce Meyer Ministries Office in Windhoek, with the commitment, dedication and ecumenical support of the broader Church in Namibia.

This is seen as a golden opportunity, afforded to the greater Church in the Republic of Namibia and beyond to work together in Unity of Purpose and Action.

Together they will focus on a common goal and invite all Namibians to

take part in the festival.

The namib times spoke to a spokesperson at the Joyce Meyer Ministries in Namibia.

“This is the first time Joyce Meyer will visit Namibia, but the humanisation side of her ministry, Hand of Hope, has been actively

involved in different places in Namibia for 18 months now, involving feeding schemes and leadership development for youth from rural areas.

There will be three different events to be held from 26 to 28 June.

During that time Joyce will be giving four diverse messages. She will definitely give practical messages on life regarding character and conduct.

Only the leaders’ event on 26 June needs registration, because we

can accommodate only 2 500 participants.

The other two events on 27 and 28 June at the Independence Stadium are free entry for all and our target audience size is 25 000 participants per day.

Every person going to the

event will receive a book written by Joyce.

While she is here, she will also give a gift bag to every prisoner in Namibian correctional facilities,” the spokesperson said.

Paying Swakop municipal SPCA gives recognition to community accounts becomes easier Madelaine Laubscher

FNB Namibia recently signed an agreement with the municipality of Swakopmund, enabling customers to pay their monthly municipal bill in five different ways.

Says Dixon Norval, Head of Group Marketing and Communications: “As an innovative bank, this was another step in the right direction – namely making banking that much easier, more accessible and more cost effective for all customers.

The municipality of Swakopmund understands and appreciates innovation and they were eager to sign this agreement which will make life of all Swakopmunders that much easier.”

The Mayor of the town, His Worship

Juuso Kambueshe thanked FNB Namibia for their foresight and explained, “With FNB’s innovative payment options, your Swakopmund Municipality account can be paid in five easy ways.

This includes online banking, cell phone banking, FNB ATM’s, FNB. Mobi and the FNB Banking App.” Laughingly he added: “Now - no one can say that they did not have the time or an opportunity to pay their bills.”

The Walvis Bay SPCA recently elected a new board of directors who did not hesitate to thank the community for their support.

The new committee of the Walvis Bay SPCA was announced at the AGM on 14 April.

They are Mr Werner Geere, Mrs Michelle Geere, Mrs Rheta Smeer and Mr Fritz Smeer. Mrs Michelle Geere from the SPCA said the organisation appreciates the contributions from sponsors and the public to improve the lives of vulnerable animals. “It is

important to have an attitude of gratitude.

As we look back this year we are especially thankful for everyone who has helped the SPCA. The community has joined hands with us and sacrificially supported us to enable us to care and speak for those without a voice. On behalf of thousands of animals you have helped, we say thank you. We are praising God for every helping hand and we pray that His blessings will overtake each individual who hav helped us.

SPCA Werner Geere, Smeer and Fritz Smeer Our heartfelt appreciation goes out to all our members and staff, every company that supports us with much devotion and to all the coastal media,” she said. The new board members would also like to thank all the stores and individuals accepting their donation tins and everyone

Michelle Geere, Rheta making donations big or small and to anyone who has settled accounts on behalf of the SPCA and contributing to the welfare of the SPCA. The board urges the Walvis Bay community to become members of the Walvis Bay SPCA in order to stay up to date with what is happening at the SPCA.

is this going to affect the fuel prices? Where will Namcor fit into all this? Will our people be trained to fully take over these operations after a few years?

António Henrique Alves Monteiro The oil, gas and mineral is more jobs for the foreigners and their Company.

RDP Will Not Succumb To the Philosophy of NO GO ZONE Areas The Rally for Democracy and Progress condemns, in the strongest terms, the politically motivated violence meted out against RDP members at Onimbu location at Outapi, on Saturday 10 May 2014 by people calling them SWAPO Party members.

This unprovoked attack on our people happened while RDP foot soldiers were in a branch meeting planning their campaign strategies, when all of a sudden they were attacked by a group of about 50 SWAPO Party members claiming that they have been instructed by both the Founding President and the SWAPO Party coordinator in the Omusati Region.

In the process, four of our people were injured and the property of our member was damaged.

These intimidations we know, are aimed at consolidating the SWAPO Party philosophy that the Omusati Region is and should remain a no-go-zone for other political parties.

We, the RDP reject and condemn such a

divisive philosophy.

Regrettably, this unfortunate incident happened almost at the same time when President Hifikepunye Pohamba, who is also the president of the SWAPO Party, was addressing mourners at Engela ELCIN Parish, appealing for peace, stability and maintenance of law and order.

Most significantly he appealed for political understanding, at the funeral of the Regional Councillor for the Ohangwena Constitency, Maria Kombwana, and informed the gathering that every Namibian citizen has the right to vote for a political party of his/ her choice during the forthcoming elections.

For how long will RDP members tolerate

Swapo Party violence?

We demand that President Pohamba makes sure that those provocateurs be arrested, denied bail and sentenced accordingly.

SWAPO Party must realise that such provocations have the potential of creating civil strife.

The nation should also know that if ever there will be civil wars in Namibia it will be initiated by the SWAPO Party. The Rally for Democracy and Progress (RDP) is fully aware that so often than not SWAPO Party provocateurs are released without being tried whenever they disrupt RDP meetings.

Natasha Van Der Westhuizen Wow! Hoe groot van Chantelle om so positief na die situasie te kyk. Alles sterkte aan haar en die lang pad na genesing en aanpassings.

Sterkte aan die Van Blerk familie.

Sonja Botha Chantelle Baie sterkte - mag Jesus jou versterk - ook aan die van Blerk familie wat ook nou deur moeilike tyd gaan asook die naamlose vrou - “If GOd bring you to it He will bring you

through it”...

Denise Van Bergen I don’t believe that God “brings anyone to” a situation like this.

Willa Hanekom Schafer Baie dankie vir almal se gebede en ondersteuning aan beide families in hierdie tragiese hartseer ongeluk. En weet ek ons Hemelse Vader sal sy beskermde hand ook hou oor die herstel van Chantelle!

John Taleiko Shitaleni Those self claimed Neigh-

bourwood Watch are Lions in Sheep’s skins.

They all are ex fighters, and they all have dangerous weapons in their houses. That was a wake up call for the Government. If they don’t act now and search their houses, one day is one day...

Tania Erasmus So bly sy het oorleef. Stem saam.

Ons God is goed!

Elvira Bock GOD is Goed. Hoop jy herstel gou meisie ek wens jou alles wat mooi is sterkte.

AFRI-VISIE “Skryf 'n Treffer” Anri Jacobs kompetisie is hier

Die AFRI-VISIE “Skryf 'n Treffer” kompetisie wat geïnspireer is deur die suksesse van Eurovision wat soveel kunstenaars en liedjies internasionale roem laat verwerf het is hier en kom na Windhoek toe op 7 Junie.

Anri Jacobs Shimmy for Shelter is around the corner. On May 17, Moon Goddess Dance Studio will present Shimmy for Shelter in aid of the SPCA and as part of World Belly Dance Day (WBDD) at the Last Resort Wellness Centre in Swakopmund.

The aim of WBDD is to raise awareness about belly dance while raising money for charity. Shimmy for Shelter aims to raise money for the SPCA and other animal shelters in need of financial help.

This will be the 5th year the event will take place and the first time the show will be performed outside Windhoek.

Swakop was the ideal town to host the show because it has an active and supportive SPCA and all the funds raised from the show will be donated to both the Swakopmund and Walvis Bay SPCA's.

The event will bring to the fore the need to raise money needed to take care of the animals housed in the

shelter and make people see the value of giving animals a permanent home. The event will further increase awareness on the need for the members of the public to take a stand against animal cruelty and neglect.

The event will take a full day of fun starting with a market at 12:00 and the dance show will commence at 16:00.

Tickets are N$80 in advance, available at the the Swakop and Walvis Bay SPCA's and BXtreme Party Supplies.

Tickets purchased at the door will be N$100. Please bring a blanket and your picnic baskets along and join the fun. There are wonderful prizes to be won.

Is jy die volgende Céline Dion of ABBA? Gaan jy die volgende Volaré skryf? Nou is jou kans! Groot pryse is op die spel - 'n kontantbedrag en plasing by 'n plaaslike en oorsese uitgewer. Agt streke in Suidelike Afrika gaan teen mekaar meeding om die uiteindelike treffer te kroon. Watter streek gaan die trotse bodem wees waaruit hierdie groot talent gaan spruit?

Wil jy'n treffer skryf? Hoe word 'n treffer geskryf?

Weet jy wat mense wil hoor en wat hulle sal raak? Het jy al liedjies geskryf en wil graag opnuut gestimuleer word deurs skouers te skuur met kenners op die gebied? Wil jy gedagtes deel met spesialiste op die gebied en jou talent verfyn? Hierdie opwindende kompetisie word afgeskop met slypskole dwarsoor SuidelikeAfrika. Registreer onmiddellik om jou plek te verseker! Enige iemand kan inskryf en dit is gratis om in te skryf. Die slypskole vind in 15 streke plaas.

Die slypskole vind op 'n Saterdag of Sondag plaas vanaf 09:00 tot 17:00. Adresse sal bevestig word asook die spesialiste wat die slypskool gaan aanbied.

Verversings word verskaf, maar middagete is vir u eie rekening. Slypskool materiaal word verskaf, maar bring 'n pen/potlood. NB: Jy moet telefonies of per epos registreer om jou plek te verseker: Telefoonnommer: TBAE posadres: msm@iafrica.com.

Alhoewel 'n splinternuwe FAK in die lewe geroep is sodat ons al die wonderlike liedjies soos geskryf die aflope 50 jaar kan herleef en beleef, is dit uiters noodsaaklik dat ons nuwe skeppers van oorspronklike Afrikaanse liedjies ontdek en bemagtig om voort te bou op legendariese liedjieskrywers soos o.a. Koos du Plessis en Christa Steyn se skeppings.

Dit is veral belangrik dat al die gemeenskappe in die land bereik en genïspireer word om in Afrikaans kreatief te skep en daarom is die eerste fase van AFRIVISIE baie noodsaaklik - hierdie werkswinkels sal verseker dat talent raakgesien kan word en dat dit hopelik vorentoe ondersteun en bemagtig word. Die AFRI-VISIE “SKRYF 'N TREFFER” kompetisie sal hopelik 'n groot aansporing word vir voornemende liedjieskrywers om hulself te vestig en 'n lewensvatbare beroep te skep asook bestaande skrywers die

geleentheid te gee om te sprankel op 'n nuwe platform. Dit is veral belangrik dat al die geure en fasette van musiek in Afrikaans aan die breë publiek bloot gestel moet word en daarom sal die kriteria van die beoordeling altyd gemik wees op artistieke meriete (met insluiting van kommersiële trefkrag natuurlik).

Na afloop van die slypskole, word die deelnemers genooi om hulle treffers in te skryf vanaf 1 Augustus 2014. Sluitingsdatum is 31 Augustus 2014. Deelnemers mag soveel liedjies inskryf as wat hulle wil en alle genres is welkom, maar net 5 liedjies per deelnemer sal goedgekeur word vir die streeksuitdunne. Elke inskrywing moet 'n klankopname insluit. Streeksuitdunne volg in die volgende agt streke: Nelspruit, Durban, Bloemfontein, Johannesburg, Pretoria, Kaapstad, Port Elizabeth en Windhoek. Die inskrywings word op 'n lewendige verhoog platvorm beoordeel. Beoordelaars en die gehoor teenwoordig in elk van die streke kies die Top 24 liedjies dus 3 treffers uit elke streek. Die Top 24 liedjies word opgeneem by vervaardigers landswyd.

Die sanger vir die opname word deur die skrywer in oorleg met die organiseerders bepaal. Die Semifinaal (waartydens die Top 8 treffers aangewys sal word) en die Finaal sal tydens die Suid-oosterfees in Februarie 2015 plaasvind in die Artscape, Kaapstad.

Ons eie Lize-Anne Ehlers gaan self deelneem in hierdie besondere kompetisie en sy moedig almal aan veral mense van die Afrikaanse gemeenskap asook die sang gemeenskap om nie hier die geleentheid te laat verby gaan nie.

Lize moedig verder aan, “Hierdie geleentheid gaan nie net elke indivi wat deelneem laat vorentoe beweeg in hulle sang loopbaaan nie, maar gaan ook 'n baie positiewe invloed op die Afrikaanse gemeenskap van Namibië hê. Boonop is dit nog verniet ook om deel te neem, so wat het jy om te verloor?” Die Afrikaanse sangeres, wat onlangs aan die NAMAS ook deelgeneem het, sê ook dat na die sukses wat “Woestynroos” by die NAMAS gehad het is baie meer mense geïnteresseerd in die Afrikaanse taal vir musiek.

Getting back to the basics Anri Jacobs

Sonne und Wind, Sand und Staub, endlose Savannen zwischen Witberg und Rotstock, Ausblicke über die weiten Ebenen und Wildtiere am Wasserloch – der Superlative gibt es viele auf Rostock Ritz.

Und dennoch herrscht Gemütlichkeit vor, geht man stets herzlich miteinander um, freut sich auf die gemeinsamen Tage auf dem Flugfeld, eine Runde im Schwimmbad mit der „schönsten Aussicht im südlichen Afrika“, unter der Lapa im Liegestuhl, ein perfekt temperiertes Glas Bier oder Wein in der Hand. Schöner kann sich die Wüste wohl kaum anfühlen.

Hunde verstehen

Probleme im Zusammenleben von Mensch und Hund entstehen oft aus Missverständnissen. Die deutschen D . O . G. S . - C o a c h e s Marc Lindhorst, Sarah Tabola und Sven Ivens haben ihr Wissen kürzlich mit namibischen Trainern und Hundehaltern in Swakopmund ausgetauscht. „Wenn man sich intensiv mit Hunden beschäftigt, so wie es bei mir gerade während meiner Ausbildung zum Hundetrainer der Fall ist, sieht man auf einmal all die Möglichkeiten, sich für Menschen und ihre Hunde zu engagieren.

Oft wollen Hundebesitzer das Beste für ihr Tier, haben aber nicht die richtigen Ansprechpartner und qualifizierten Trainer an ihrer Seite. Da ich mich mit Namibia persönlich verbunden fühle, wollte ich die Halter hier von unserem Wissen profitieren lassen“, beschreibt Sven den Grund für das „Projekt Namibia“. Also habe er zwei Kollegen mit an Bord geholt, um für zwei Wochen hier im Land moderne und artgerechte Hundeerziehung zu vermitteln.

Zeige der Fuß in die eine Richtung, der Arm aber in eine andere, könne das für den Hund schon verwirrend sein. „In der Kommunikation von Mensch zu Hund kann schon eine leichte Kopfbewegung oder ein Schulterzucken ein eindeutiges Signal sein. Genauso funktioniert das auch unter Hunden. Wenn man sich das vor Augen führt, sieht man, wie

seiner über 8jährigen Laufbahn in Deutschland schon mehr als 4500 Mensch-HundTeams trainiert hat. „Wer Hunden so die Möglichkeit nimmt, sich eindeutig verständlich zu machen, braucht sich nicht wundern, wenn es häufiger zu Konflikten und Aggression kommt.“ Neben Beschäftigungsfragen und Grundsignalen war Aggressionsverhalten dann auch ein häufiges Problem in den rund 40

stünden dabei manchmal namibische Besonderheiten im Wege.

In Deutschland rate Marc jedem Hundehalter dringend davon ab, sein Tier als Wachhund im Hof oder Garten alleine zu lassen. „Hier kann ich natürlich nachvollziehen, warum einige Hundehalter das machen.

Doch dann wird es natürlich für den Hund schwierig: zu Hause soll er selbstständig das Territorium bewachen, beschützen und

Liebe Küstenleser, wenn sich eine Gruppe ehemaliger Klassenkameraden 35 Jahre nach dem Matrikabschluss an der Deutschen Höheren Privatschule Windhoek bei einem Treffen auf der Gästefarm Elisenheim wiedersieht, ist die Freude groß.

inzwischen etliche Jahre Lebenserfahrung mehr auf dem Buckel.

Manche sind Oma oder Opa geworden, andere müssen mit dem Verlust eines lieben Menschen, dem Ende einer Karriere oder einer Scheidung zurechtkommen. Wieder andere strampeln täglich in einem stressigen Job. Zur Ruhe kommen wir noch nicht, denn unsere Kinder sind zum größten Teil in der Ausbildung, und die kostet nicht wenig!

Ich habe unser drittes Klassentreffen von A bis Z genossen. Keiner hat versucht, sich in das Korsett seiner Rolle von damals zu zwängen. Es gab gute, tiefe Gespräche. Natürlich

schon schön zu erleben, dass manche bereit sind, ganze 10 000 km zurückzulegen, um dabei sein zu können.

Selbst unsere nette Afrikaanslehrerin Betta van Huyssteen hat es geschafft, sich aus ihrem aftree oord in Bloemfontein zu schälen und in vollen Zügen mit uns zu feiern.

Und unser DHPSLehrer Günther Kesselmann ist trotz seiner kürzlichen Hüftoperation mit seiner Frau aus Swakopmund angereist.

Vordere Reihe (v.l.): Erika Pack, Christina Heckmair (Werner), Bärbel Stehn (Drobisch), Irmela Schnebel, Dietlind Kreiner (Basson) und Antje Kesselmann. Anwesend auf dem Treffen waren auch Ali Becker (Kirchner), Sabine Zinke (Schweiger), Katrin Wucher (Bockmühl) und Rainer Rapp Foto: Privat!

Weise den Geschmack des klaren, geselligen, weise stimmenden Weins voll purer Energie und Lebensfreude verderben, mit dem ich unser schulbezogenes Stelldichein gerne vergleichen möchte.

Da ich bereits drei Klassentreffen hinter mir habe und wo ich nun schon mal beim Wein bin, der natürlich reichlich geflossen ist, kann ich unumwunden sagen, dass solche Treffen mit den Jahren immer besser werden - genau wie Wein. Vielleicht darf ich vorsichtig behaupten, dass das mit unserem Älter- und Weiserwerden zu tun hat.

Schließlich sind wir keine Rotznasen mehr, denen nur daran gelegen ist, einen neuen Schulstreich auszuhecken, sondern haben

wurden - parallel zu einer Foto-Show - auch viele Anekdoten aus der Mottenkiste der Erinnerung zum Besten gegeben, die dafür sorgten, dass man die Schulzeit teilweise noch einmal durchleben durfte.

Besonders imponiert hat mir, dass unser ExKlassenkamerad Gernot Seipelt den weiten Weg von Frankfurt am Main nicht gescheut hat, um quasi NUR das Treffen mitzumachen.

Er flog am Dienstag zurück! Ebenso erfreulich ist die Tatsache, dass ex-maats Irmela Schnebel aus der Schweiz und Klaus Oppel sowie unser ehemaliger Geografielehrer Werner Gulba aus Deutschland so gut wie immer die großen und kleinen Treffen mitgemacht haben.Ist

Ich kann jetzt noch Renate Kunert nennen, die sich mit ihrem Mann aus Durban aufgemacht hat - und Karin Kirchner (Malan), die mit ihrem Mann aus Sedgefield angereist kam.....es war einfach überwältigend!

Das Beste an solch einem Klassentreffen aber ist, dass nur die anderen älter geworden sind, haha! Schließlich sieht man sich jeden Tag im Spiegel und merkt oft nicht, wie die Schwerkraft der Erde einen über die Jahre ramponiert hat, und wie sich der Kummer hier und da in der Form von Falten in die Haut gefräst hat.

Monthly Monitor for April 2014 Shares reached new record heights while local bonds and gold lagged behind.

The global economy is recovering and growing but one wonders if there are no global risks out there?

Market Review: It appears global markets now think they understand the effects of the USA Federal Reserve Bank's (the Fed) measured exit from its bond-buying programme. Investors have been concerned about what would happen to bond and share prices once the artificial suppressing of longterm bond rates is lifted. Sharp deratings of bonds and Emerging Market assets have caused wild swings in prices and volatilities in 2013/4.

However, since February local shares have surged upwards on expectations of future earnings while local listed property and local bonds recovered from oversold positions in January.

Rising geopolitical tensions from the Ukraine could not stem this tide. Volatilities also did not increase due to political changes happening in a number of countries.

A prime example is South Africa where the All Share Index brushed the General Elections aside and returned 9% for the first 4 months of 2014 as the SA Rand strengthened on renewed confidence and foreign inflows.

Portfolio Performances: Markets behave randomly over the short term, but become more predictable given enough time. Below we show the performances of cash: the steady thin red line a proxy for cash and bonds (safety assets) and local shares: the volatile thin brown line a proxy for dif-ferent types of shares (growth assets), and my six managed portfolios as graphed by MoneyMate.

The recent underperformance of local bonds and listed property has put pressure on Conservative portfolios and pensioners drawing income on them.

Over the last 12 months the gross return of our Conservative+ (7.4%) thus underperformed its benchmark of 8%. However, our Cautious portfolio (10.3% versus a 9% benchmark), Cautious+ (12.6% versus 10%), Moderate (14.5% versus 11%), Moderate+ (18.8% versus 12%) and Assertive (23.8% versus 13%) are all comfort-ably beating their bench-marks, due to the strong performance of global and local shares.

Valuations and Risks: Can these strong performances continue? The short answer is no, here are some reasons: · The Bank of England thinks market adjustments from the Fed's withdrawal of stimulus will cause inflation to rise and real asset prices to fall. If this is true, it would be bad news for shares, listed property and bonds. · The second half of the year is usually seasonally weak for shares, though the USA elections do have a positive

effect on SA shares. The well-known saying “sell in May and go away” is thus only partially true! · We are entering a rising interest rate environment.

Typically this slows the average returns for shares, listed property and bonds except if the rate hikes are due to stronger economic growth. However, should inflation eventually rear its ugly head listed property and bond prices will be under pressure. · Asset managers such as Coronation and Investec have been warning for some time that the process of indebted governments, corporates and individuals deleveraging to stronger balance sheets will lower returns for all asset classes over the next decade. · Current valuations for cash, bonds, listed property and shares are all stretched, though global property and global shares are the cheapest.

From such lofty valuations investors usually earn lower returns over the mediumterm than the existing historical long-term averages predict. The large asset manager Blackrock calculates that there is a 55%

chance that global economic growth will grind slowly higher within a low, but stable inflation environment.

Despite fears about the Fed, China's economic slowdown, Japan's experiment with inflation, Europe's divergent strengths and weaknesses and Emerging Markets' structural fragilities, Namibian investors should stick to their guns and their investment strategies.

After all, there will always be risks and we do not invest for 1 or 2 years but with a long term view and plan in mind. However, this is a good time to review your investments. Is your asset mixture appropriate between safety and growth?

Are you saving enough or drawing too much capital?

Are you paying high fees?

Are you diversified and overweight in the cheapest asset classes or not? Do you receive regular feed-back and are tactical adjustments made to your capital?

Conclusions: We caution savers and investors to have a good long-term financial plan, a well-diversified portfolio and a strong relationship with a sound financial

adviser that could withstand the short-term noise of financial markets and the medium-term pressures on asset class returns and investment portfolio performances.

Prancing horse revisits Namibia Viglietti Motors, in collaboration with Ferrari international partner Shell, will be revisiting Namibia with the Ferrari brand in June 2014, after a successful outing in 2013 warranted more attention from the iconic Italian marque on Namibian soil.

“Our visit to Namibia last year proved exceptionally valuable for the Ferrari brand,” comments Viglietti Motors CEO, Mervyn

Eagles. “Not only did our clientele enjoy fun in the sun at the country’s first exclusive Ferrari test drive event, but we opened new

doors into an important emerging market for the Ferrari brand on an international level. This is in keeping with our expansion

plans into Africa.”

“We have recognised a new breed of super sports car enthusiasts in the region and demand for Ferrari vehicles is ever rising. We are only too proud to be visiting Namibia again and for yet another sensational event.”

Centered around the 16th Annual Namibian Tourism Expo which takes place at the Windhoek show grounds from 4-7 June, two Ferrari vehicles will be on show at the expo for the very first time.

A service clinic will be available to existing Ferrari owners in the region.

In addition, a street parade is also on the agenda, with various Ferrari vehicles making their way through the streets of Windhoek including the likes of the Ferrari 458 Spider, 458 Italia, FF, and the awe-inspiring F12 Berlinetta.

After the parade, selected Ferrari guests will embark on the ultimate Ferrari road trip, embarking on a journey to the coast towards Swakopmund in an exclusive test drive experience, designed to exploit both the majestic Ferrari vehicles on offer, as well as a host of incredible Namibian experiences. Sponsored fuel stops along the route will be performed at selected Shell service stations.

Concludes Eagles: “Our Namibian clientele and indeed all Ferrari fans gave us the warmest reception last year, and we expect a heightened sense of Ferrari enthusiasm as we embark on what can only be described as an astoundingly exciting experience in one of the most beautiful places on Earth.”

Rossmund Golf Club News

Well well well, where is the east wind we were promised? Although it was quite hot at times on the course over the past couple of days this morning the Seniors are faced with thick mist - makes it even more difficult for them to see where their balls land.

At the Committee meeting held on Tuesday evening the matter of "Caddies" was again discussed in detail. A decision was taken that ALL caddies would be put on a final warning by the Chairman - should this not bring about a marked improvement in their behaviour etc - the Committee will have no alternative but to ban them from the course.

We request all members who make regular use of a caddy to assist in finding an amicable solution to this ongoing problem.

We have two new juniors who have come through the development ranks and have been handicapped. Members are reminded of the "no show - no prize" rule should they not attend prize-giving.

The newly planted Palm Trees between No.10 and the Driving Range have been declared "GUR" until such time as the stakes and protection has been removed. Saturday 10 May we played the annual Standard Bank Betterball Scramble Drive Competition - this format is always popular with the members - there was a good turnout of players - a great time was had by all thanks to the sponsor and their local branch staff who attended/took part in the day. Winners on the day with a

resounding 50pts S Bonifatius/F Hamunyela; 2nd place went to regular visitors from across the river W van Zyl/K Wentzel with 48pts and in 3rd place two of our regular youngsters P Ndeleinga/P Shimoshili.

Yesterdays Wednesday Competition was sponsored by Prima Butchery - it would appear that the "Boep Pens" Club are hard to beat at the moment - with Eben & Troffie taking away the prizes with two very good rounds of golf. Well done guys!! Remember we have the big one on 28 May with Africaonline as sponsor - so start smooth talking your boss for the afternoon off. There are lots of Round 1 Matchplay Games still outstanding - please see that these are completed before the end of the month.

Competitions for the coming week etc: Saturday 17 May - Round 1 of the 2014 Alexander Forbes Challenge - Betterball Stableford. Sunday 18 May - SAGES sponsored by Stainless Steel Engineering.

Friday 23 May - Namib High School Corporate Day. Saturday 31 - Novanam Monthly Medal. "Golf, should be like measles caught young, for if postponed until your riper years can have serious results�

Walvis Bay Golf Club News Elgin Brown & Hamer 10 May 2014. Last week Willie Esterhuyse and his team were back with a better ball competition.

Willie has had his set of golf clubs for three years and that is also how many times he has played the game. EBH spoiled the players with excellent prizes and the entire EBH team jumped in and helped, played and organised a superb day of golfing. Over the past few weeks we had some miracles, world records and plain ridiculously good scores from the players.

Last week was no different. Some say a chicken cannot smell and have to rely on sight to get food. In our case we had a blind chicken finding all the food. Pieter Heunis just did not miss a shot, a chip or a put apart from two on one hole. The man was on fire and rightly so, with all the coaching, on course advice and support his four ball was giving him the past few weeks it was time that all things come together. Play started early with the sponsors taking the field. As suspected, they did not do that well, but from the faces and pictures it was clear that they enjoyed their day to the fullest.

More pictures of them in action soon on our Facebook page. Tiger Woods, take note.

All teams played rather well and after the first nine some had very good better ball scores of 23,24 and even 25 points. Pieter Heunis and his partner, stood out on 27, and some competitors was getting grumpy already, sensing that this is his day. Jason Barnard and Duane Sanders was also living up to their potential and played and excellent second nine in vain. Percy van Zyl, just back after holiday and Wynand Breytenbach also played good golf, but it was Pieter, playing a sub 90 for the first time in six years that stole the limelight.

Making two black outs in the round.

Nearest to the PIN- Francois Champion, Longest Drive- Jonas Katti, Wooden Spoon- Proud EBH players- all together. 1st place Pieter Heunis & Anton van Rensburg- 53 points, 2nd Duane Sanders & Jason Barnard 50, 3 rd Percy van Zyl & Wynand Breytenbach 48, 4 th Johny

Borges & Paul Sham 48, 5th Bennie Lombard & Jack Jordan 47, 6th Bertie Coetzee & Peet Poggenpoel 46, 7th Nardo Sardinha & Koot Potgieter 46, 8 th Heinz Ahrens & Shane Westerdale 46, 9th Wouter van Wijk & Kurt Brits 45, 10 th Luandre Duvenhage & Divvi de Wit 44. Thank you Leeanne, Dries and Willie for the great prizes and a wonderful day. Members, please remember that Nostalgia will be on 14 June. Only 150 tickets are available at N$75 per ticket. Tickets are on sale at the bar. Please, if you want a ticket to this prestigious music evening, do not call or send mail.

Just buy the ticket then you have it. Certainly not to be missed. Tsumeb week end is end of the month. We have 11 teams traveling thus far. Tsumeb said they are ready for us and are practicing. If you still want to go, get your names in please. This coming Saturday is Marsh. Riaan Lotriet opted for a better ball stableford with scramble drive. Marsh is a first time sponsor and well known in our community. Get your names in.

The Corporate section produced 42 goals scored in 24 games with an average of 1.75 goals per game According to the tournament organisers Marlo Green and Lorenzo Beukes the event was a huge success and has the potential to become a more prominent feature on the coastal sports calendar. Talks have already been initiated to turn the event into an annual or even biannual event. The organisers expressed their gratitude to all the participating teams and the sponsors who contributed to the success of the event.

Harris Park Football Club was started by a group of friends in August 2013. The team is competing in its first season in the Erongo 3rd Division and is hosted by Atlantis Sports Club at their sports field and therefore the Name Atlantis Harris Park FC.

National Bowling League heats up With two more match-days to go, the four playing divisions of the Namibian National Bowls League are intensifying after there was more splendid action and drama last weekend.

The women's team of TransNamib Bowling Club (TNBC) continued to underline their championship ambitions and it seems there is no stopping them anymore. Their male club compatriots, however, had a weekend to lick their wounds after losing both matches to allow their rivals to catch up to them. With TBNC's women now having an overwhelming 15 points at the top of the log, it is hard to imagine any other outcome granting them the opportunity to walk away with this year's championship. The team was on a high again last weekend, opening the match-day with a solid 20:9 win against Rossmund Bowling Club (RBC). The next day they were made to work a lot harder against Namib Park Bowling Club (NPBC), but eventually, they kept their cool to celebrate a 16:15 win, ending their weekend in style. There is, however, a fierce race building up behind the log-leaders with all other clubs still in the running for at least the second place. Meanwhile the TNBC-men failed to increase their lead on the top as they suffered a 22:17 loss to the Rossmund Club in their opening game while only drawing 17:17 in their second game against Namib Park on Sunday. With their rivals, especially Eros Bowling Club (EBC) and Namib Park Club gaining valuable points, the men's division will be decided on the last day come July. In the mixed division there is

currently a two-horse race between TransNamib and Rossmund, both with 14 points, while the Eros players are also still in contention having 12 points to their name. TBNC and RBC won one game apiece last weekend, while EBC crashed to a 19:13 defeat in their only game of the day against Tsumeb Bowling Club (TBC).

Western Chiefs win in Windhoek The build-up to Saturday's match in Windhoek was very positive. The guys arrived on time at the Jan Wilken Stadium and we left at five o'clock for Windhoek.

On arrival at the stadium, we made ourselves comfortable in the locker room to prepare for the match ahead against the Central team. We did not know what to expect, so we went in with all the force possible. The Western Chiefs started the game on a good note with an early penalty for falling over the ball

by Central.

Captain Elton Rentzke pointed to the posts for the first points and the guys from the coast were up 3-0. From there on the Chiefs ran in three well-constructed tries. The spectators were well entertained with good and fast running rugby. We finished off the first half with a 20-0 lead. The second half saw the Central team pick up momentum and scoring one excellent try. This was all a little too late as the Western Chiefs had already sealed the game with 40-8 by that time. This was also the final score.

Excellent play was delivered from forwards Elton Rentzke and Shaun White.

Ngume Nguaiks also played a very good match amongst the forwards, as well as Bradley Claasen.

The big prop made his presence on the field count.

In the back line, Quinton Fielding was very dangerous on attack, as well as Chessborough

The Western Chiefs Lawrence. Good play was also delivered from replace-ment backs Percy Nash and Heinrich Dier-gaardt.

Lastly, congratulations to JR, who got a call-up for the Namibian u/20 side. He was good on attack and scored two tries in the game. He defended well and definitely deserves a position in the Namibian team.

Overall, the game was played good and clean. The teams became good friends afterwards and we look forward in having the south visit us on 23 May. Some structural changes to the game plan will be made as well as to the positions of players. We will also look at calling more players up to the team due to their attitude and performance.
