Gazette What’s up with the water in Ohrigstad? Agenda Sekgogoba (in the photograph, left) of Ohrigstad resorted to collect clean and perfectly potable water for household use in Swart Street last week Friday. To be more precise, from a hole in the almost newly tarred road. “This hole and subsequent water waste somehow reflect on our meters. We now have an account of R39 000. A Mr Maepa at Sekhukhune District Municipality wants us to pay about R10 000 before they reopen our blocked supply (bottom right). If you phone them about your account or about the hole in the road, they are ‘not available’.” Platinum Gazette was not sure about the wasted water going through the meters, but when one meter on the sidewalk, that went like crazy, was closed, the water stopped. Estimated loss per second equaled one litre at this particular water meter (bottom), and we made a video to prove it. According to residents the water from the hole has been flowing for months now. It follows a path of 600 meters (we measured the distance) before disappearing in the bushes at the end of Mimosa Street. So we wrote Mr Willy Mosoma, who is the spokesperson of Sekhukhune District Municipality a letter about the issue, requesting his comment. He acknowledged receipt and now we wait. Watch this space.

Tourism grading now made easy in Limpopo Getting a tourism grading for your tourist destination will now be made easy. Limpopo Tourism Agency (LTA) this week announced that it has a working partnership with the Tourism Grading Council of South Africa (TGCSA). Through this partnership, TGCSA has deployed Ms. Rethabile Lebethe, Provincial Quality Assurance Specialist to operate from the LTA premises with immediate effect to take
care of all tourism grading aspects that tourism products might have. “During various interactions we had with the industry and stakeholders, tourism grading featured prominently as a talking point. For that reason, we engaged TGSA on the matter and agreed that that the entity would send a representative to operate from our premises to attend to grading needs in the Province”, said
Ms. Nomasonto Ndlovu, LTA CEO. She went on further to say, “Our offices are a port of entry for tourists and the industry and with Ms. Lebethe based in our offices, applications and renewals will be swiftly attended and we are confident this will contribute to the increase of our tourism grading statistics. It should also be noted that one of the Lilizela Awards entry requirement is that participating tourism products should be graded or have a valid grading certificate. We have no doubt that this move gives us an increased number of participants in these highly contested provincial and national awards”. TGCSA was established in the year 2000. Operating as a business unit of South African Tourism, the TGCSA is still the only recognized and globally credible quality assurance body for tourism products in South Africa, which is greatly relied on, to this day. All this means is that when it comes to globally recognizable grading, they are really the one and only.

Ohrigstad Police on the move
The police in Ohrigstad led by the social crime prevention coordinator Sgt Kholofelo Phokane and VEP (Victim Empowerment Programme) members Adelaide Mogakala and Cresta Mashigo embarked on a community outreach programme in a form of door to door campaign this week. On Tuesday they visited Ohrigstad town entering house to house and speaking to residents about safety of their personal property that includes recording of the serial numbers of devices and appliances, creating unique marks on items, taking pictures of their items and engraving their names on items. This campaign seeks to create awareness and educate communities on crimes related to stolen goods and also aim to strengthen, promote relations and partnership amongst stakeholders in addressing stolen goods related crimes. VEP members informed the communities about their roles and their services which includes, pre-counseling, victim friendly facility and any victim support to the victims of domestic violence and sexual related crimes. They also encouraged the community members to report any domestic violence incidents to the police or to them so that they can be able to assist them. This kind of awareness campaigns will be taken to all communities in the Ohrigstad policing area including the farms and smallholdings throughout the whole year.

Have your say on traffic laws
The Traffic Law Enforcement Committee has invited members of the public to provide comments on the future and direction of road traffic law enforcement in South Africa. The Committee was set up in 2017 by the Minister of Transport. To date, it has engaged with a wide range of organisations consulting on the way forward regarding the future of traffic law enforcement in the country. Chairperson of the Committee, Dr Kesolofetse Lefenya, has indicated that the next step of the committee is to request the members of the public to offer their views. The Terms of Reference of the Committee require it to develop a blueprint for the future design of traffic law enforcement. “We are aware of the widespread view that traffic officers should be visible at every road intersection. “However, this would not be easily attainable, there would never be enough officers to deploy in all the areas. So we are asking members of the public to put forward innovative ways in which the laws might be more effectively applied,” Dr Lefenya said. The Committee is also mandated to develop the National Traffic Law Enforcement Code and the Anti-Corruption strategy.
Submissions must: be written in English, in MS Word format; contain the full name and contact details of the person making the submission; Where the submission is made on behalf of an organization, the full name of that organization; be attached to a covering e-mail, and sent to Hlulam@rtmc. co.za; and Reach the committee by e-mail not later than 17:00 on 8 March 2019.

Do people’s attitude towards race impact our economy? South Africa is often called the rainbow nation because of the variety of cultures living here, but all too often racial tension surfaces and tinges the bright image created after becoming a democracy. In 2019 South Africans are heading towards an election and some of the buzzwords of the day include state capture and corruption. In general most people feel that these are bad for the state of an already struggling economy. This week however, Dr. Theuns Eloff, executive director of the FW de Klerk Foundation published a plea to President Ramaphosa to make an end of race based measurements within the economy. His argument was that minority groups are less than 20% of the country’s population and they want to make a difference in the country, but based on the colour of their skin, they are excluded and deemed not fit to fill positions that require some of the skills they possess. He asked how can such a small percentage of people in the long term be a threat to the demographical majority in the workplace? He used Eskom as an example. Everyone was affected by load shedding and last week Minister Pravin Gordhan said that one of the issues at Eskom is the lack of skilled people. They are now planning to bring engineers from Italy and get skilled labour that was lost in the past, to come and assist the company. Yet, in the same week reports surface of Eskom planning to reduce the number of white employees in it’s service by 1308. This includes 336 engineers and many mid-level managers. In Eloff’s opinion piece he said that Eskom has been struggling much longer that the so-called ‘nine missing years’ as some politicians refer to the period under President Zuma’s rule. Gwen Ngwenya also penned an opinion piece published last week (www.politicsweb. co.za). She echoed that BEE at Eskom had a major impact on the current state of affairs. Her sentiment is that the current race policies upheld by the ANC is part of the problem and that competition in industry should ride above competition in policy to try and ensure better outcomes for the economy. Platinum Gazette asked readers how they feel people’s attitudes towards race impact on the economy.
Mr Dumisa Madalane said: “The education our government issue us with today is poor. We have many skilled people, but often employees are blamed for not being skilled enough when an organization does not perform well. This while the top people chowed the money. I don’t think colour has an impact on our economy. Our economy is negatively impacted because of political instability”. Right: Mr KP Malepe said: “I really believe that the race issue has a negative impact on our economy. We first need to recognize it’s negative impact and the negative impact our past had on black people. We must acknowledge that people were disadvantaged because of apartheid. We must also acknowledge that the benefit of our country comes before race. We must have more dialogue and talk about the past. I think today the government is struggling to balance all the forces. There are still people who are biased towards white people. Even if there are good enough people from black companies to do the job, they will favour whites. The race issue is playing a role and it is hurting our economy”.
Mr Douglas Mabokwane said: “I think racism affects our economy. We need to do away with this thing of colour. We are all human beings. We live on the same planet and we need each other. We don’t need to look at race when it comes to employment. We need to take people with skills and knowledge so our economy can improve”.
Me. Mariaan Jacobs sê: “Dit is baie sleg dat mense deur ras benadeel word. Baie mense word benadeel vir hulle ouers se ‘sondes’ deur apartheid. BEE is belangrik, maar dit moenie vir altyd aanhou nie. As daar meer werk was sou ras nie saak gemaak het nie. Suid-Afrika fokus te veel op wit en swart. As ‘n kleurling voel ek sommer sleg”.
Me Ané van der Merwe sê: “Ek voel nog altyd jy moet volgens jou kwalifikasie en hoe goed jy die werk kan doen aangestel word. Daar moenie gekyk word wie jy is en hoe connected jy is nie. Hou op kyk na kleur, dit is sleg vir die ekonomie. Mense wil nie meer werk nie. Dit is te maklik om iets onder die tafel deur te vat. Al kan mense nie die werk doen nie, kry hulle dit steeds”. Saam met haar is Carissa van der Merwe.
Right: Mr Raymond Seerane and Mr Kenneth Moropa said: “Our leadership in our country don’t have a vision for our economy. People should be employed to be the best that can do the job, no matter their colour. People’s attitudes are wrong about colour”.
Mr F. Ndou said: “They must look at qualification and not colour. So many people are appointed not even having the right qualification. You will find that someone is appointed to an HR job, but they have a book keeping qualification. Look at the relevant qualification and not at race, colour or political affiliation”.
Ms Paulinah Madalane, Ms Sindy Mdluli and Ms Lindiwe Khosa said: “People’s attitude is negative on our economy when they judge on skin colour and discriminate – like what is happening now at Eskom. That is like apartheid being brought back. The problem is often at management level. Perhaps training is needed.”. Ms Khosa says: “It is not only at Eskom. It is bad with things like what the EFF wants to do to take the land. I’m from Hazyview and many farms were taken and given to black people and it is no longer operating. It is not right. Those original farmers build those businesses and were creating jobs for people.”
Mr Jacob Malepe said: “BEE is something politicians use to try and please people. It is bad for the economy. They should rather empower black people to get the right qualifications and skills so they can be the best candidates for the job, instead of pushing some into a job they don’t know how to do, simply because they have the right skin colour”.
Mr Kamogelo Magagula said: “In some cases it has a negative impact on our economy. They will take someone based on skin colour and you will find they cannot do the job. These people will not be productive. They must totally withdraw BEE. They should strictly look at qualifications. We need qualifications and skills, not colour”.
Mr Ernest Kgoete said: “We live in a democratic state. Everyone must be given an opportunity. I’m black, but we need to face it that white people are often more knowledgeable with economy – maybe because of apartheid. Give everyone a chance, regardless of skin colour. We need to work together. It is our economy and it is for everyone’s benefit that it goes well with our economy. If we can work together and learn from those who are more knowledgeable to help create and manage our own businesses, then we can grow. People must be employed based on qualifications, skills and experience and not because they are black or white. If we go on about black or white we will collapse our economy”.
Above: Mr Justice Mokwena and Mr Godfrey Malatji said: “Qualification should be the most important thing. Race is not supposed to be something to exclude people. In government appointments look only at qualifications. For example, no teachers without teaching qualifications. Things like gardening and cleaning don’t need qualifications. We will have a problem if we keep looking at race instead of the right qualified people”.
