Swakopmund - Walvis Bay
Dual carriageway finally a reality

Staff Reporter
Namibia’s roads are in the process of being upgraded, constructed and expanded, the Roads Authority (RA) explained at the opening session of the stakeholder engagement sessions with the Road Development Agency of Zambia held at a hotel in Walvis Bay on Tuesday. “We are spending N$3 billion on the upgrading and construction of new roads, including new gravel roads in Namibia,” Conrad Lutombi, CEO of the RA stated when asked to reveal this year’s budget. With the aim of positioning Walvis Bay as the leading trade route in Southern Africa many are seeing the harbour town to be the main portal into, and out of, the Southern African Development Community (SADC). As the completion of the new port of Walvis Bay is planned for mid-2017, the number of heavy trucks on the road is expected to
double. The majority of SADC countries are land-locked and therefore road networks from main portal countries, such as Namibia, Angola, South Africa etc, become increasingly important. “By 2017 we want Namibia to be the logistical hub,” Lutombi proclaimed adding that the objective is in line with the country’s national development goals. The road linking Namibia and Zambia is expected to become especially dominated with heavy vehicles in the not so far future as Zambia is in the process of developing the ‘new
copper smelting plant which will probably be Africa’s largest,’ to the north-western side of the country. “During the construction period we will see a lot of laden trucks travelling through our various borders,” Bernard Chiwala, CEO of the Road Development Agency in Zambia, said.“When the construction period is over, we are going to see a lot of mineral exports from our country through Namibia.” Currently about 1 000 laden (fully loaded) trucks are recorded on a monthly basis at the Kazungula border village, lying on the north bank

empty and small vehicles. According to the SADC protocol on transport, communications and meteorology member states need to implement harmonised permissible
axle loads, gross vehicle mass and gross combination mass limitations to balance the financial needs and interests in preserving the region’s road infrastructure and safety. The aim of the meeting between Continues on page 2

Zambian and Namibian stakeholders was to engage the harmonisation strategy between the two countries. Road engineers often focus on the building of the road, however axle load control becomes very important to maintain roads. Namibian road stakeholders are already adopting the Zambian protocol of fining overloaded heavy vehicles. “We are busy with the administration of a bill to force overloaded vehicles to pay fees which are commercially calculated to be the amount of damage that the overloaded vehicles have done to the road,” Lutombi said. “We will be sending this legislation to cabinet very soon.” This initiative will be one way in which the RA will try to fund the maintenance of current roads and upgrades to proposed road networks within Namibia. “Countries like Tanzania have implemented the same strategy and we hope that, once passed, countries like South Africa and Botswana will

also follow suit,” Lutombi explained. In the road construction sector we are slowly moving away from country-based road infrastructure and more towards regional based road infrastructure to attract investment for projects that will require serious funding, said Chiwala. “Inter-country harmonisation for SADC countries may sway an investor’s decision to invest in SADC instead of Asia, for example.” “We will identify roads that link travel from Congo all the way down to Walvis Bay, for example, that will attract more investors,” Chiwala continued. The section of road between Swakopmund and Walvis Bay has been identified as one of the “critical sections of road,” not only for overall SADC investment attraction, but for road safety initiatives as well. Even though the road between Swakopmund and Walvis Bay is just over 30km, it can take drivers from 45min to an hour to travel along that road. Traffic along this road
has increased, but so has the number of accidents as well. “We have already employed a consultant to do a detailed design for a dual carriageway between Swakopmund and Walvis Bay behind the dunes,” Lutombi explained. “We have also appointed a consultant to start with the detailed design of the dual carriage road between Windhoek and Rehoboth and the detailed design of section A of the road between Windhoek and the airport has been completed.” “Once the detailed design is completed we will try our best to source the funds and start with construction.” Apart from accommodating more traffic, the dual carriageway will separate incoming from outgoing traffic and hopefully help reduce the number of road accidents. “If we do not do something about the road between Walvis Bay and Windhoek now, we may not have a road left within the next five years,” Lutombi concluded.

The namib times went to inspect the progress on the project and found Mr Freddy Goliath, MD of Iris Construction, and his team busy putting the final touches to the first completed house. The showhouse (pictured) is in the top price range, called Onduli, and boasts two bedrooms, lounge and kitchen, built-in cupboards, tiled floors and bathroom with toilet cubicle. Mr Goliath says they are building at such a speed that even the supply of 30 000 bricks per day is hardly enough. They have been struggling to secure a steady supply of bricks lately, as the demand for bricks is very high at the present
time and transport fees are quite significant when the materials have to be brought from the north of the country. Various categories are being built to meet the requirements of different income-groups; the cost of buying one of the top of the range houses is around N$404 000.
During the first phase of the mass housing programme, 3 034 houses for low-income households are expected to be built here over the next two years. One of the contractors also said that there will be plenty of green spaces, room for a school, room for businesses and a shopping
mall in the new suburb. One company, Power Oyeno was awarded a tender worth more than N$583 million to build 2 034 houses. There are reported to be around 17 sub-contractors currently on site, who were in turn contracted to complete smaller portions of the overall building contract.

Tender application training Dorcas Mhungu
Mr Gert Kruger
The Municipality of Walvis Bay is hosting a two day workshop on tender training and information sharing for small and medium enterprises (SME's) which started yesterday and will finish today. The program that made its debut last year was attended by 20 respondents, this year the event drew hundreds of participants making the venue too small. Yesterday's session kicked off with presentations by Walvis Bay Municipality's Andre Muller on the introduction to tendering and contracting and Jan Kruger who presented on tender regulations. The main service providers taking part are the SME Bank, Development Bank, Namport, Erongo Red, SME Compete, and Business Financial Solutions. “This year we decided to add another

component, which is tendering,” Gert Kruger, Manager Economic Development Walvis Bay Municipality said. “The problem we have as local authorities is that the whole tendering process is regulated by the tender regulations and there are criteria needed to evaluate tenders… and the problem we experience with people tendering is the pricing. It shows people do not know how to price and tender.” It is this knowledge gap that the Council would like to close and assist SMEs to enable them to make the tender application more successful. Yesterday's turnout is a clear indication of the width of the knowledge gap and matched desire to learn from the SMEs. Gert said sometimes people, out of ignorance, submit tenders w i t h i n s u ff i c i e n t documents and they are disqualified while others submit late and their tenders are not opened in compliance with the terms of the tender board. “This workshop is organised to give participants the necessary information they have to adhere to when tendering to municipality,” Andre Muller noted. The program is organised by the office of the Mayor.
Mother's missing son found dead MadelaineLaubscher A mother who reported her son missing, after he never returned home on Saturday, heard the heart-breaking news that her son was found dead on the premises of the Ministry of Finance, in what looked like a suicide scene, on Monday morning. Police officials have confirmed that this was the same person that was reported missing by the mother. Nampol Detective Inspector Erastus Iikuyu confirmed on Wednesday that the body of Mr Christof Horus Gerhard Nantes (23) was found on Monday morning at the ministry's offices in Sam Nujoma Avenue in Walvis Bay.
“His identity can now be revealed as his next of kin had been informed. He was found on Monday at the Ministry of Finance hanging from a tree,” Iikuyu stated. Nantes' mother informed the namib times early Monday morning
that her son had disappeared on Saturday afternoon and never returned home after coming from a shop with his flatmate. According to her, his flatmate told her that Nantes stopped to talk to someone along the way home from the shop. The flatmate alle-
gedly decided to carry on walking, thinking that Nantes would catch up. “Christof never returned home after his flatmate left him behind while on their way home,” she said. “I did not suspect that he had problems at all. He worked seven days a week and in his free time visited his girlfriend. He was not a party person and that is why I suspected that the situation was strange.” His mother started searching for him Saturday
evening. On Monday he was declared a missing person by the police. Only moments after he was reported missing to the newspaper, his body was discovered. His body was found after an employee of the Ministry of Finance was told by a fellow female that a body is hanging from a tree and that he should not come any closer. Police officials have stated that Mr Nantes' death was a result of suicide.
Mondesa se stank duur voort Marshallino Beukes Inwoners van Swakopmund se Mondesa woonbuurt, in besonder Festus Gonteb Primêreskool, moes vandeesweek weereens die ondraaglike stank van rioolwater wat die strate oorstroom het weerstaan. 'n Baie ongelukkige mnr Lenga Abraham, prinsipaal van die bogenoemde skool, het namib times vroeg Woensdagoggend gekontak en van die dilemma in kennis gestel. Met die koerant se aankoms is joernaliste begroet met 'n ondraaglike stank, wat soos 'n wolk oor die area hang en rioolwater wat die straat oorstroom. Die water het ook die skoolterrein geїnfiltreer. Mnr Abraham het te kenne gegee dat 'n drein, buite die skool, die sondebok is. Volgens hom gebeur dit gereeld dat die spesifieke drein verstop en nie die rioolwater na die hoof pyplyn kan pomp nie, wat veroorsaak dat dit oorstroom en van hierdie stinkende water word ook terug forseer na die
skool se dreine. “Veral die klein kinders weet nie waarvandaan die water kom nie en speel sommer daarin, indien daar nie toesig gehou word nie en dit skep 'n groot gesondheidsrisiko,” het mnr Abraham te kenne gegee. Die Swakopmund munisipaliteit het gister oggend die probleem opgelos en ook vragte sand aangery om die rioolwater mee toe te gooi. Die inwoners waardeer die vinnige optrede van die stadsraad, maar spreek die hoop uit dat 'n permanente oplossing so gou moontlik gevind gaan word. 'n Tender van ongeveer N$25 miljoen is verlede jaar aan 'n bekende konstruksie maatskappy toegestaan, ten einde die jarelange
probleem met Mondesa se rioolstelsel op te knap. Dit blyk egter dat inwoners van hierdie woongebied vir eers met die situasie vir lief moet neem, vooreer 'n permanente oplossing gevind sal word.

Progress in mass housing Workers bear the brunt
Without a single exception, all construction workers on the mass housing project in Swakopmund who spoke to the namib times this week said they are not paid according to the minimum prescribed wage, as stipulated in the government gazette.

struction Industry Federation and the Metal and Allied Workers Union. He claimed that if small sub-contractors are expected to pay industry-approved wages, most of them would have to leave the project. The same story was repeated over and over by all the workers interviewed, none said they are paid according to the gazetted hourly wage rates for general labourers, artisans and semi-skilled workers. Indeed, many said they had received no wages over the past month and some were surprised to hear what the approved rates are. An official at the ministry of labour explained that the gazetted hourly rates must be seen alongside production targets and
cannot be taken in isolation. Despite the fact that the wage rates have been agreed to by the construction industries federation and gazetted by government, it is an agreement between the employers and the union. It cannot be enforced by the government as there is no statutory minimum wage, he said. According to the latest progress report from the NHE work has also started on 53 of the 80 houses planned for Henties Bay, of which 34 have been completed. At Walvis Bay 1 595 houses are due to be built and work on 273 has started. The first showhouse in Swakopmund was completed this week.

report from the National Housing Enterprise (NHE) indicates the parastatal has already paid out N$160 million to fund the project. The NHE however did not want to comment on the on-site progress and related labour issues, saying that they have no contractual arrangement with the sub-contractors. NHE provided the namib times with a full progress report and referred all questions to the main contractors. Attempts to contact Power Onyeno’s spokesperson did not produce any results on Thursday as the office number provided by the NHE went unanswered. Power Onyeno’s director, Mr Paulo Shipoke was not able to speak at length yesterday as he is currently in China. The project manager of Onyeno also did not have the spokesperson’s contact number; neither was the NHE willing or able to make the number available. One sub-contractor, who did not want to be named for fear of losing work, admitted that he could also not pay the industryapproved rates. He alleged that he does not earn enough. He said with the payments he gets, he simply cannot afford the rates agreed to by the Con-
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?

pace. One contractor, who stood around with his hands on his hips, said they were sub-contracted to build a few houses for Power Onyeno, but the money for the previous month had not yet paid to him, so he could not pay his workers. He had an SMS message, allegedly sent to him by a senior manager of Power Onyeno, promising that the money would be available by Thursday. The message, which was forwarded to him by the sub-contractor under which he is contracted, suggested the delay in payment was due to late payments on the government side. This could, however, not be independently confirmed. What became apparent is that there are a number of middle-men, who appear to be skimming the profits before they reach the people who do the work. The contracts are not just sub-contracted, but in some cases are further divided and contracted out, and thereafter once more sub-contracted to a fourth party. Which means that between the main contractor and the actual builders there may be at least three other intermediaries taking a cut. The latest official progress

Swakopmund was the biggest beneficiary of mass housing funds during the first round of the project, with 3 034 houses for low-income households expected to be built over the next two years. The area to the north of the DRC in Swakopmund rapidly transformed into a major construction site over the past six months as the housing project started taking shape. One company, Power Onyeno, was awarded a tender worth more than N$583 million to build 2 034 units. Ferusa Capital won a contract to build 600 houses for a total sum of N$173 million, while Delta Group won a N$91.6 million contract to build 400 houses. The total amount budgeted for Swakopmund in the first phase is close to N$850 million. Although the builders are making remarkable progress, several said that they have not been paid at all this month. When the newspaper visited the site this week, one group of workers could be seen standing around a little fire next to a half-built structure. They simply could not go on, as they had not been paid yet this month and clearly had little energy or motivation to keep up the

PwC cultivates entrepreneurial spirit Top Grade 11 achievers in Mathematics and Accounting, from schools all over the country, were invited to PwC Namibia’s headquarters in Windhoek for a three day collaborative experience at the annual PwC Entrepreneurial Development Forum, held in mid-August. The prospective bursary candidates participated in a business simulation game and were challenged with activities ranging from setting up balance sheets to simulation of accounting processes based on real business scenarios. The program concluded with an information sharing session with some of the firm’s trainee
accountants, managers and associate directors sharing experiences and answering questions from the group. The students also had an opportunity to interact with PwC Namibia’s top management and partners for an open conversation about the range of options available to finance professionals. The Entrepre-
neurial Development Forum and Bursary Programmes form part of the PwC Namibia’s strategy to educate and improve the skills levels of Namibians. PwC Namibia currently sponsors 87 Namibian students (of whom 62 are from previously disadvantaged groups) studying at South African and Namibian
universities towards their accounting degree and postgraduate qualifications. The current bursary commitment totals in excess of N$9.2 million. As one of the world’s leading providers of professional services, the PwC global network of firms has offices in 776 locations and 157countries.

Grootbek op Vrydag Mans, waar is jul regte…? Marshallino Beukes Kinder-regte, vroue-regte, diere-regte en watter alle regte nog is aan die orde van die dag en die vraag kom op, het mans ook “spesiale” regte in die hedendaagse samelewing? Noem my “outyds” of wat ook al, maar in my boek is ‘n man ‘man, ‘n vrou ‘n vrou en ‘n kind ‘n kind en basta. En nee, ek is nie gekant teen al die ander “regte” nie, maar waarom hoor mens niks van manne-regte nie. Hoeveel mans moet gedweë afstand doen van hul kinders, want die ma van hul spruit/e het die meeste reg op die kind/ers, hoeveel mans word daagliks fisies, emosioneel, seksueel of finansieël te na gekom deur hul vroue, maar geen haan kraai daaroor nie? Ja dis reg, watter man sal na die polisie gaan om ‘n klag van aanranding teen sy vrou aanhangig te maak. ‘n Kennis het ‘n ruk gelede aan my genoem dat
hy wel so iets probeer het, maar met ‘n rooi gesig die betrokke aanklagkantoor moes verlaat, nadat die beamptes aan diens hom blykbaar uitgelag het. In so ‘n geval kan daardie man, wat al vir ‘n tyd lank onder sy vrou se tweesnydende swaard en soms vuishoue moes deurloop, besluit om reg in eie hande te neem en ‘n statistiek op die ellelange lys van die sogenaamde “passion killings” word. Die “zebra” styl wat mos deesdae toegepas word, blyk uit my oogpunt ook slegs die Eva geslag te pas wanneer hulle so voel. Indien ‘n man dalk sy hand vir haar lig (wat natuurlik verkeerd is), nie genoeg geld huis toe bring nie, of dalk nie na haar wense in die bed presteer nie, word
daar genoem dat “hy mos die man is”. “Fifty-fifty” is dan skoon vergete. Verstaan my asseblief baie mooi, ek het die grootste respek vir die skoner geslag, maar allamaggies, mans het ook regte! Laat die man, die man wees en die vrou die vrou, net dalk sal minder huwelike in die skeihof beland en respek jeens mekaar gaan beslis ‘n hupstoot kry. O ja, ter afsluiting, moet nie die roede spaar wat kinders aanbetref nie (my persoonlike mening), want volgens my is dit een van die hoofredes waarom vandag se jeug geen respek vir die ouer garde het nie. Lekker naweek aan al die pragtige dames (en mans!)

2014/15 Chevening students’ farewell
NAMIB TIMES 9
5 SEPTEMBER 2014
The British High Commission and the National Petroleum Corporation of Namibia (Namcor) held a pre-departure and farewell event for the two Namibian students who are studying under the UK government funded Chevening scholarship scheme in 2014/15 on Tuesday. Victoria Matjila is studying for an MA in International Relations at the University of Cardiff and Alina Haidula is studying for an MA in Petroleum Geoscience, cofunded by Namcor at Royal Holloway, University of London. “Namibia is still in a growth or developmental phase, requiring expertise in a variety of sectors,” Bertha Amakali, deputy HoD, PoN, Media Department, highlighted. “The country therefore needs educated people at
postgraduate level because that is where knowledge is created and assimilated. Assistance in the form of postgraduate scholarships to Namibian students will be the lead agent in ensuring and attaining the objectives of creating knowledge-based economy.” Currently studying in the UK with a Chevening scholarship, Namibian Colin Namene from Arandis, states: “The Chevening Scholarship not only pro-
vides you with an opportunity to study at some of the best universities in the world, but also a platform to establish good networks with alumni in the Chevening family as well as at your university. It’s an enriching experience that is beneficial at a personal and country level”. The competition for the next Chevening cycle, the 2015/16 Chevening Scholarships, is still open and closes on 15 November 2014.
Chevening Scholars and Alumni Chevening Scholarships are UK funded by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) and
partner organisations and is considered an important element in Britain’s public diplomacy efforts.
Awards for Namibians are typically for a oneyear Master’s degree in the subjects trade, human
rights, governance, media, and climate change, and at any of the UK’s leading universities.
Leprosy survivors’ annual celebration Mavourlene Gaes
The Leprosy Mission of Southern Africa will be hosting their annual Sunday celebration on 14 September at the Walvis Bay Town Hall, for the victims of the disease. Leprosy, also known as Hansen’s disease, after the scientist who discovered bacillus (rod-shaped) bacterium the Mycobacterium Leprae (M. Leprae) bacteria in 1873, is a chronic infectious disease that primarily affects the peripheral nerves, the skin, upper respiratory tract, eyes and nasal mucosa.
The Leprosy Mission Southern Africa is a non profit Christian organisation that is mainly focused on helping those that are not only infected but affected with the Leprosy disease. According to Johannes Gumede, a Leprosy Mission charity worker, the purpose of the yearly event is to raise the level
of awareness about the disease and also to collect funds that will assist the Leprosy clients in their multiple needs. Around 25 Leprosy survivors will be part of the celebrations and most of them will be coming from the northern part of the country. “We have received the venue from the munici-

pality, while a member of the Catholic Church promised to donate a braaipack and we also approached two of the fish factories and are just waiting for confirmation” Gumede said. He urged anyone out there that is willing to donate to do so because any kind of help is welcome and every bit helps.

Green light for Ebola trial The US Food and Drug Administration gave the green light to the highly anticipated human safety trial of an experimental Ebola vaccine. It will be the first test of this type of Ebola vaccine in humans. The experimental vaccine, developed by the pharmaceutical company GlaxoSmithKline and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), will be given to a group of volunteers aged 18 to 50 if the vaccine has been deemed safe for humans. All volunteers will be monitored to see if it produces a strong immune response to the virus.
“You really can’t predict what you will see (in humans),” Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of NIAID, said. More than 3 000 people have been infected by Ebola in Liberia, Guinea, Sierra Leone and Nigeria since the first documented cases in December, according to the World Health Organisation. At least 1 552 have died. The president of Doctors Without Borders sharply criticised what she called the “global coalition of in-
action” for focusing on insulating their nations instead of helping those in Africa who need it most. Dr Joanne Liu said centres run by her group have turned away sick because they are too full, as an ever-increasing number of people develop symptoms of Ebola. “States with the required capacity have a political and humanitarian responsibility to come forward and offer a desperately needed, concrete response to the
disaster unfolding in front of the world’s eyes ... rather than limit their response to the potential arrival of an infected patient in their countries,” Liu said. In her CNN interview, President Sirleaf of Liberia appealed for other nations to “please work as partners with us” by offering monetary, health care, logistical and other assistance, yes, but also by giving moral and personal support to a problem that’s affected millions already.
Ebola: Call for a coordinated African response Fity-one leaders of civil societies and business members have launched a petition to call for more solidarity and a more coordinated approach to deal with the Ebola outbreak in West Africa, the African Media Agency reported. Botswana has recently blocked entry to trucks travelling from the Democratic Republic of Congo through the Kazungula border due to the reported outbreak
of Ebola in the country. Health workers have been tasked to work closely at the border post and make sure that all truck drivers are
screened for the Ebola disease. Passengers on air flights from effected countries has also been screened and in some cases cancelled.
The call for action, which through a petition is attracting an increasing number of signatories, calls for all citizens to play their role and demands a
coordinated and rational response from African governments and international institutions. High profile leaders such as former Presi-
dents Mkapa of Tanzania and Obasanjo of Nigeria have reportedly signed the petition, as well as Graça Machel, civil society leader and wife of the late Presi-
dent Mandela, the singer and former Minister Youssour N’Dour and a number of prominent leaders and personalities from music, media and business.
Open letter published in newspapers, magazines and websites across Africa Citizens Call to Action against Ebola
As the Ebola virus becomes an overwhelming human catastrophe affecting public health, social institutions and economic well-being in Africa, we stand in solidarity with our fellow citizens in the countries victimised by this deadly disease. We also thank and salute the local and international health workers who are risking their lives daily, intervening on the ground to eradicate the scourge of Ebola, often without access to gloves and other protective supplies. We acknowledge and applaud the decision of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) health ministers to call for the lifting of travel bans to Ebola affected countries, which are hampering the fight against Ebola and restricting the arrival of essential expertise and equipment, as well as fuel to provide electricity, medications to treat other deadly diseases such as malaria and food to prevent famine. In the name and interest of our common humanity, we are collectively launching this urgent Citizens’ Call to Action. We call on our respective Heads of State and Government to avoid full embargo against Ebola-af-
fected states. While we understand the legitimate concerns for the protection of their population, we remind African leaders of their obligation to pan-African solidarity and the global community of their humanitarian obligations in emergencies. We urge the following immediate actions: One Ensure that the flow of essential assistance can reach those in need, while maintaining economic activity necessary for sustaining life in cities and villages, by * Authorising and implementing the local recommendations issued by the World Health Organisation (WHO). * Acknowledging the impossibility of quarantining entire nations and instead establish much-needed economic and humanitarian corridors of access - essential life-lines - both within the affected countries and between countries. Two
We call on African opinion leaders - including artists, athletes, filmmakers, writers, journalists, academics - to initiate or to actively take part in public information campaigns on prevention and transmission of the Ebola. These can happen via road-shows, film screenings, theatrical pieces, discussion groups, and the distribution of messages via cellphone networks. And we call upon global opinion leaders to add their talents and voices in support. Three We call on the broad private sector, the pharmaceutical industry, and the research community, in particular, to fund, facilitate and make immediately available access to all known methods of prevention and treatment of this menacing threat to our global well-being.

Business Climate Monitor released
The IJG Business Climate Monitor for July 2014 Produced by the Institute for Public Policy Research
The Institute for Public Policy Research (IPPR) in Windhoek Business Climate Monitor stutters in July on account of drop in building plans approved released the IJG Business Climate Monitor for July 2014.
The Business Climate Index is based on the Investment Index, Consumption Index, Export index, Leading indicator and the Coincident Indicator (based on the National Consumer Price Index). During the month under review, a major increase in company registrations was witnessed, both for closed corporations (up 21 percent month on month) and defensive names (up over 100 percent month on month). This increase is likely to be on account of improved administration of company registrations following the launch of the Business and Intellectual Property Authority by the Ministry of Trade and Industry. Further, this increase in company registrations
speaks to the current positive business climate in the country, and is a positive leading indicator for business activity over the next year. Additionally, vehicle sales once again hit record levels in July, the fourth such event in 2014, with 1919 vehicles sold during the month. This strong growth in vehicle sales was one of the key drivers prompting the Bank of Namibia to hike interest rates by 0.25 percent in August in order to dampen vehicle import levels and protect the country’s reserves. The Business Climate Index is based on 13 broad economic indicators that are likely to impact on the domestic business environment. All indicators have the same weight
except for company registration data, which has a significantly lower weight to reduce its volatility on the overall Index. Data is collected on each indicator on a monthly basis. The indicators are as follows: 1. National Consumer Price Index (NCPI). 2. Unweighted exchange rate of the Namibia dollar against the US dollar and the euro. 3. Deflated average price of beef and mutton. 4. Deflated average price of white fish. 5. Deflated average metal prices. 6. Unweighted average of selected OECD leading indicators (as a proxy for diamond price). 7. Total of commercial vehicle sales.

Nevertheless, the current business climate remains positive, on account of expansive fiscal and monetary policy and the on-going construction boom in the country. The IJG Business Climate Index slowed marginally in July, by 0.5 points, to a level of 149.9. Nevertheless, on a quarterly basis, the index remains well above the average level seen in the second quarter.

Big Brother delayed after fire incident Big Brother Africa “Hotshots” season 9 that was scheduled to launch this Sunday in Sesani Studios Johannesburg had to be postponed after the house unexpectedly caught fire on 2 September. In an issued statement M-Net explained that they do not know what the cause of the fire was but that the investigation into the origin of the devastating fire will continue once it is safe.
Because of the fire accident M-Net and Endemol have been urgently busy looking for a substitute studio where the can film the production. They stressed however that as the production has a highly
technical infrastructure, the camera and editing requirements that will be needed in the alternative studio is not easily available. Every effort is going to be made to find a solution as soon as
possible to make sure that Africa’s biggest reality show will resume and entertain the entire African continent once more, the release assured.

Cleo G desert tunes' finest Mavourlene Gaes
entertaining others with her melodic voice. Although she has always enjoyed singing, Cleo revealed that she did not take her singing seriously and was not confident enough to consider a career as a singer, especially in the slowly developing Namibian industry. “I was really not interested [in singing] but when Pule (a musician) approached me in 2011, asking me to sing with him as his backup vocalist, I decided to give it a
shot,” she said. In 2012 Pule took her to the studio where she met Patrick Thaniseb, the producer of Desert Tunes Productions, and he helped her compose a song “Sa airos” (your face in Damara Nama). According to Cleo G the song became an instant hit and an amazing motivator for her to grow as an artist because of her fans’ wonderful response to her music. “Mati ta ni di” (what should I do) and “Ta oa / khi” (Do not come back)
Cleo G both in Damara Nama, are the songs this artist already has under her name and, with an
album that she adds is due for release before the end of this year, her fans are in for a treat.

Monkey-Puzzle - ein funky Cafè mit Pfiff!
Swakopmund (sk) Gerade rechtzeitig zur Sommerzeit ist das etwas alternativ angehauchte MonkeyPuzzle-Cafè eröffnet worden. Regelmäßige Kunden des VillageCafès in der Stadtmitte, das ebenfalls von der energiegeladenen Cilliers-Snyman-Familie betrieben wird, sind vergangene Woche zu Kaffee und Kuchen dorthin eingeladen worden. Das mit schmackhaften Farben dekorierte Kaffeehaus ist ideal platziert, denn es befindet sich mitten in der Little-Foot-Gärtnerei, die hinter das Cottage-Privatkran-

Marijke Ross, Yolandi und Marie Fourie sowie Christa Nolte (von links) schätzen es sehr, dass es gleich neben dem Cafè einen Kinderspielplatz gibt, wo die Kleinen sich austoben können.
Elthea Schrader sowie ihre Kinder Juanita und Henko finden das neue Cafè interessant und dynamisch.

kenhaus umgezogen ist und sich immens ausgedehnt hat. Das heißt, man kann Pflanzen einkaufen und sich anschließend genüsslich zu einem der beliebten Velvet Cupcakes (samtene Törtchen) oder Trammezinis (italienisch für Weißbrotscheiben ohne Rinde mit verschiedenen Aufstrichen drauf) an einen der bunten Tische setzen und sich an der dekorativen Teestube und ihren Leckereien erfreuen. Ursprünglich sollte das Cafè den Namen Baobab erhalten - nach dem in Afrika beheimateten Affenbrotbaum. Dann taufte man es schließlich doch Monkey Puzzle - nach der chilenischen Schmucktanne, auch Affenschwanzbaum genannt. Die englische Bezeichnung „Monkey Puzzle Tree“ rührt
von einem Kommentar eines Engländers um 1800, der meinte, diesen Baum mit seinen dolchartigen Blättern zu erklimmen, sei selbst für einen Affen eine kaum lösbare Aufgabe. Übrigens spielt im Monkey-Puzzle-Cafè nicht nur das Dekor eine Rolle! Ökobewusstsein wird hier ganz groß geschrieben. Jeglicher organischer Abfall geht in den Kompost der Gärtnerei, und der Kaffeesatz landet bei den Erdwürmern, die bei Little-Foot gezüchtet werden. Selbst der Kinderspielplatz ist aus wiederverwertetem Plastik hergestellt worden. Hier liebt man also nicht nur einen guten Espresso, sondern umarmt gleich den gesamten Planeten mit.
Die adrett gekleideten Baristi Blanco Amupolo und Slow Bantuan sind im MonkeyPuzzle-Cafè für die professionelle Zubereitung des Kaffees verantwortlich. Ihr Tätigkeitsfeld schließt die Kenntnisse in Bezug auf Kaffeesorten, Kaffeeröstung, die Bedienung der Espresso-Maschinen, das Aufschäumen von Milch und vieles andere mehr ein.
Amanda Snyman ist die rechte Hand von Vaida van der Merwe, die das neue Monkey-Puzzle-Cafè leitet. Amanda kennt sich im Gastgewerbe sehr gut aus, war sie doch fünf Jahre lang auf verschiedenen Luxus-Passagierdampfern tätig und hat zu guter Letzt im Village-Café in der Swakopmunder Stadtmitte gearbeitet.

Liebe Küstenleser, zweifelsohne kann man sich über die Sturzflut an Informationen, die uns heute vor allem über das mobile Universal-Lexikon des Internets ständig zur Verfügung steht, sehr freuen. Gleichzeitig kann ein Zuviel an Auskunft das Leben auch komplizierter gestalten, wie es das Bild hier zeigt.

men an, sich glutenfrei zu ernähren, und deshalb wollte ich mehr darüber wissen. Also, man nennt Gluten auch Kleber oder Klebereiweiß, ein Stoffgemisch aus Proteinen, das im Samen einiger Arten von Getreide vorkommt. Es bildet das Teiggerüst bei Brot und Gebäcken. Nur aus Mehlen mit Gluten kann Brot in Form eines Laibs (im Unterschied zu Fladenbrot) gebacken werden. Die Menge an Gluten ist für die Backfä-

hause aus, über alles Mögliche schlau zu machen, und dazu möchte ich ein Beispiel nennen. Jeder von uns hat sicherlich schon einmal das Wort ,Gluten’ (im Deutschen liegt die Betonung auf dem Buchstaben e!) gehört oder auf einem Lebensmittel, das käuflich zu erwerben ist, gelesen: Glutenfrei bzw. Allergen: Gluten. Unzählige Male wurde auch ich ganz unbewusst mit diesem Begriff via Lebensmittelverpackung oder im Gespräch konfrontiert, habe aber nie darüber nachgedacht. Bis vor kurzem wusste ich nicht einmal, was Gluten eigentlich ist. Letztendlich fängt man meist erst dann an, sich für etwas zu interessieren, wenn es einen in irgendeiner Form persönlich betrifft. Da meine Schilddrüse nicht immer so funktioniert, wie sie sollte, las ich kürzlich ein Buch darüber. Der Arzt und Autor dieses Werkes rät allen Menschen mit gewissen Schilddrüsenproble-
higkeit („Gashaltefähigkeit“) von Weizenmehlen ausschlaggebend. Gluten ist dehnbar und sorgt im Weizenteig auf der Gare dafür, dass das Gärgas (Kohlendioxid) gehalten wird und somit das Gebäck aufgehen kann. Im fertigen Gebäck sorgt das geronnene Klebergerüst dafür, dass das Gebäck seine Form behält. Backwaren ohne Gluten gelingen oftmals nicht so luftig und saftig wie mit herkömmlichem Mehl, denn Gluten sorgt beim Backen auch für gute Porenbildung und eine feste Krume. Früher hat man Brot mit Sauerteig gebacken. Das war ein zeitaufwendiges Unterfangen, auf das heute kaum ein Bäcker oder eine Hausfrau mehr Lust hat. Daher werden die verschiedenen Mehle heutzutage mit Gluten, das im Labor durch einen Auswaschungsprozess künstlich verändert wird, angereichert.

Diese Unverträglichkeit (Zöliakie) führt auf Dauer zu einer entzündlichen Erkrankung der Darmschleimhaut, von der offiziell jeder 200. Mensch betroffen ist. Die Dunkelziffer soll allerdings weitaus höher liegen, da nicht alle diagnostiziert werden! Wie dem auch sei, Allergien sind jedenfalls am Zunehmen, unter anderem deshalb, weil wir der Natur zu viel ins Handwerk pfuschen. Deshalb appellieren Gesundheitsbewusste auf eine so genannte Steinzeiternährung für den Menschen: Viel Gemüse, hochwertige Tierprodukte, Obst, kein Getreide, keine Hülsenfrüchte.

Chevrolet sells 3-millionth Cruze Global compact car is brand's best-selling nameplate
28 AUGUST 2014 - Eleven plants. One-hundred and eighteen countries. Eighty-eight awards. And now, 3 million sales for the Chevrolet Cruze. The best-selling Chevrolet model crossed the milestone this month, just 16 months after selling its 2 millionth model. From South Africa to the US and Canada, to Laos and the Philippines, Lebanon and Qatar, the Chevrolet Cruze has proved itself a global player among midsized cars. "The Cruze is an extremely adaptable car that can cater to the demands of nearly every market in the world," says Alan Batey, GM executive vice president of Global Chevrolet, speaking in Detroit. "It is a testament to Chevrolet's global focus and capabilities to offer a car that is so highly regarded in so many places."
The Cruze has to date collected 39 product awards in China, 27 in the US and 12 in Brazil. Chevrolet is committed to building products in the markets they are sold, and the Cruze is built in 11 different countries on five continents. GM design teams in South Korea and Germany had the global consumer in mind when developing the car in just 27 months in the late 2000s before debuting in South Korea in November of 2008. "Medium to small car sales around the world have been growing exponentially as emerging markets, in Asia and South America, increase car ownership while mature markets, like the US,
downsize for fuel economy," says Michelle Krebs, senior analyst for AutoTrader. com. "Smaller cars, like the Cruze, are driving sales globally and will continue to do so." The Cruze also endured intensive durability testing, including extreme weather tests and more than 210 crash tests tailored to the regulatory demands of the countries where it is sold. To appeal to different market tastes, the Cruze is available in three body styles, including a four-door sedan, five-door hatchback and station wagon. Cruze is powered by five different engines globally - 1.4-, 1.6-, and 1.8-litre petrol engines, and 1.7- and 2.0- litre diesel en-
gines. Chevrolet recently also launched a new version of the Cruze catering to the styling and packaging demands of Chinese customers. Cruze sales in China lead all countries with 1.13 million sold since launch in 2009. In South Africa, the Chevrolet Cruze is sold as a seven-model range comprising two hatchbacks and five sedans, powered by either 1.6-litre or 1.4litre turbocharged petrol engines or the 2.0-litre diesel motor. Since launch in 2009, Cruze sales in South Africa have totalled 27 000. Top 10 markets for Cruze and sales through July of 2014.

Simon Shidolo finds redemption at Grand Prix 3rd Leg
Having been out of shape and bedevilled with constant defeats the whole year, the Arandis based chess player, Simon Shidolo finally recovered in spectacular fashion as he stirred home an undisputed victory at the third Leg of the Namibia Chess Grand Prix Series. His performance at the Zone 4.3 held in Windhoek in July was his worst this year after finishing at the very bottom with only a draw to show for all his efforts, but as fortune has it, Shidolo surely had the last laugh this time around. A product of the Colin Foundation School Chess Club and a former national team player and former junior chess champion, Shidolo made it clear that he was unstoppable at the
tournament as he sought to find redemption. He scored a total of 6 wins in a 7 round Swiss tournament played over the weekend at the Sanlam Building in Windhoek. The 3rd Leg saw a handful of some of the country’s elite chess players partaking but all falling short behind the new champion. Tournament favourites Candidate Master (CM) Charles Eichab, 2014 National Junior Champion
Immanuel Gariseb, 2013 National Chess Champion Goodwill Khoa, recently crowned Candidate Master McLean Handjaba and long standing veteran player CM Otto Nakapunda all finished behind Shi-dolo. Khoa and Eichab came in third and second place respectively but sharing their prize monies after finishing with the same points divided only by tiebreak. Acting Tournament Di-
rector on the day, Richman Tjiriange applauded Shidolo’s fighting spirit and ever-so motivated character, urging other chess players to always strive to be better regardless of the odds stacked against them. Tjiriange also thanked the sponsors of this leg, Gottlieb Scotts Hamutwe, a chess aficionado who donated N$2 000 towards the prizes and also JHI Properties for availing the
(Fltr) Charles Eichab, Simon Shidolo, Goodwill Khoa venue. Only two Grand Prix Legs remain, scheduled for 11 and 18 October
in the capital. These two legs will be played out in a public arena, preferably one of the city’s shopping
malls, with the intention of bringing chess to the people.
Everybody was a winner Walvis Bay Golf Club news Magic Discounters 30 August – Fifty-five players showed up for the ever popular Magic Discounters golf day where everybody is a winner.

Franciano “Dannyboy” Albinus and Gotlieb “The Bite” Ndokosho, both International Boxing Federation champions in different categories, will have to defend their IBF titles on 11 October and 30 October, respectively. Both the fighters hail from the coastal town of Swakopmund and are certainly keeping the Erongo Region and Namibia highlighted on the global boxing map. Dannyboy will face an opponent from Ghana, Samuel Amoako, on 11 October for an IBF Lightweight Senior Title fight. The bout will take place in Tsumeb and during an exclusive interview with namib times sport, the World Champion said he is well prepared and will “show no mercy” to the Ghanaian. “I have been working very hard since my last fight earlier this year and I have to thank Live It! for sponsoring me a one year contract at their gym”, Dannyboy noted. His previous fight against a Tanzanian opponent was a draw. Mr Awal, the manager of Jan Japan Motors in Walvis Bay, is also immensely contributing to this
boxer’s success, he told the newspaper. Gotlieb “The Bite” Ndokosho, will defend his title against a Pakistani opponent on 30 October in Windhoek. He defended his IBF Featherweight title successfully the last time, when he knocked out Egyptian, Ibrahim Mostafa, in the capital city. Pandu Boxing Promoting, in corporation with Team Dannyboy are planning exhibition fights at the end of this month in Walvis Bay, in preparation for the two boxers’ upcoming fights. According to the two fighters they are currently trained by Mr Albertus Damaseb from Damaseb Boxing Club in Mondesa, but a lack of training equipment is hampering their preparations. “The town’s Municipality and Regional Council really have to come aboard and assist boxers in the Erongo Region.
We are currently three International Champions at the coast, representing Namibia and the Region as well, but only when we return with titles, are we being acknowledged by our local government. What about assisting us on our road to these successes?” the boxers asked. Another Swakopmund boxer, Junias Koko, recently returned with a silver medal from the Commonwealth Games in Scotland, which is a vast achievement, not only for him, but also for the country and the Erongo Region. The business fraternity is also urged to invest in the future of Erongo boxing and by doing so, backing the fighters and also pave the way for international fights to be hosted at the coast. Team Dannyboy is managed by Mr Melvin Sakkeus and he can be contacted at 081 122 6348.
This year we had a change in the format and we played a two ball alliance, better ball with a yellow ball rotating between the players and counting double stableford points. The sponsor also requested that non golfers should also be able to compete as Magic Discounters had prizes for every player in the field. De Villiers de Witt and Wimpie Maartens kicked of well carding 44 points on the first nine holes. Jerry Hartogh was swinging, nothing unusual for him, with Patrick Shigwele and D Eksteen and they also started good with 41 points. Jerry, please refer to the rules regarding swinging partners in the future before you play.
A dismal start for Shane Westerdale and Jens Paschke. 21 points on the first nine holes and in total a few black outs and one pointers did not help much. At least they won something and Shane had the privilege to hand out some fine at the prize giving, easing the pain a bit. The sponsors, Martin Cordier and Clinton from Ellies was also tripped by golf. They had a wonderful day however and with a bit more luck they could have done pretty well on the day, but ended on the bottom part of the log. Play more golf guys and you will see the difference. 1st DeVilliers de Witt & Wimpie Maartens 91
points, 2nd Jerry Hartogh & D Eksteen 88 points, 3rd Deon Klynsmith & Anton van Rensburg 86 points, 4th Jerry Hartogh & Patrick Shigwele 85 points, 5th Jaans Stander & Gunter Heitmann 79 points, 6th Frans Grobler & Hannes Crafford 78 points. All players received prizes. Poena and Connie Olivier could not make it this year. They stayed at home and celebrated Connie’s birthday. In your absence we thank you for your sponsorship and next year we will see you again. Martin Cordier put everything together for the day and certainly made sure that we were spoiled once again. Thanks to the Magic Discounters team.
