Igniting democracy flame

>> Freedom Flame crisscrosses KZN MERVYN KRISHNA

T

HE iLembe District was a hive of activity last weekend as the 20 Years’ of Freedom and Democracy celebration took place with the Freedom Flame passing through as it travels across KwaZulu-Natal.

During the celebrations the flame crossed from Mandeni to Ndwedwe with national, provincial and local government leaders joining communities in celebration of freedom from apartheid.

On Friday, at the Freedom Flame handover by the uThungulu District Municipality to the provincial chairman of the ANC and KZN premier Senzo Mchunu, he reflected on how South Africa’s freedom and democracy was achieved and the progress the country has made.

“The major symbol of our celebrations as the province of KwaZulu-Natal is the 20 years’ of Freedom Flame.

“The Freedom Flame is crisscrossing the 11 districts highlighting the light over darkness that has prevailed in this province in the past 20 years,” said Mchunu.

A series of activities, led by MECs and mayors of Mandeni, KwaDukuza, Maphumulo and Ndwedwe, took place over the weekend.

The events included the launch of an electrification project in Gingind-

“People are not just going to vote for you, they want to see change and this we have given them, especially in the rural areas,” said Sithole.

“We have built houses, provided clean running water, electricity, built roads and created jobs, and this is ongoing.

“This does not happen overnight, we have delivered.

“The ANC has been instrumental in the adoption and implementation of ministers signing performance agreements.

“The manifesto of 2009 stated the need to review structures of government to ensure effective service delivery by evaluating and monitoring performance,” she said.

“For the first time, ministers signed performance agreements and adhered to time periods.”

Mkhize said the department of performance and monitoring was an ANC-drafted policy, which was endorsed by many in the country.

ple. When Senator Robert Kennedy defied [the] government to visit Luthuli in 1966 it resonated deeply in our country.

“The words he spoke inspired a generation of Americans to ‘get active’ in ending the scourge of injustice in South Africa. I remember being a young activist and listening to Kennedy quote Pericles - ‘Athens may be great, but its glory is achieved by men who know their duty’,” said Gaspard.

“His words about Luthuli and to the world at large formed a grounding place for freedom. We spoke about it so passionately.

Freedom came off the backs of Luthuli’s sacrifices and that of his

family.ChiefLuthuliisasonofthissoil but he belongs to everyone. His legacy will continue to inspire the American people.

“On behalf of my president and my people I am honoured to be here today,” said Gaspard.

Public affairs officer for U.S. consulate general Najlaa Abdus-Samad said Gaspard has been in the country for six months, mainly in Pretoria, to observe the projects the embassy is working on. “The embassy has a special relationship with Luthuli Museum and they visit at least once a year.

Chief Albert Luthuli, and thus the museum, is part of the legacy that encouraged Americans to help stand against apartheid,” she said.

“It was an ANC conference that had taken a very serious decision to ensure [the] government functions,” she said.

Mkhizeaddedthatthepartyhadalso contributed in the adoption of the planning committee.

She said the plan was to ensure more effective government and to im-

Mkhize said there were countries which had planning departments that worked on plans on their own, but that theANChadchosentodothingsdifferently.

“We believed we needed a plan to be supported by the majority. We thought the participation of the country was important for this plan to be a national plan and not a party plan,” she said.

New face for KwaDukuza

>> Town to receive a much-needed upgrade

K

WADUKUZA Municipality is on track to fulfilling its Vision 2030 programme launched in 2011.

This was cited by KwaDukuza Mayor Ricardo Mthembu during a recent council briefing session.

He was launching two key urban regeneration projects commissioned by the municipality to regenerate KwaDukuza.

The municipality commissioned the planning exercise of a number of projects that were identified for development, including street lights installation and street regeneration.

King Shaka Street, which cuts across the town, will be re-designed.

Its black-top road is being resurfaced with additional paving, a storm-water

system and sidewalks.

Street-lighting systems in the town will also be upgraded with light-emitting diode products as part of saving energy. The project is billed for completion in about seven months.

Mthembu underlined that this is part of honouring KwaDukuza icons King Shaka, Chief Luthuli and Mahatma Gandhi. This comes two weeks after honoring Luthuli with a black-top road in Groutville.

Mthembu said the municipality stands head and shoulders above other KZN municipalities as last year it was rated number one in terms of financial sustainability.

“This is indeed a quantum leap forward in our road towards fulfilling

Vision2030,acitythatissettocompete in a global village in 16 years from now.

This also serves as an indication of progress underlined in the National Development Plan which coincides with our vision billed for evaluation in 2030,” said Mthembu.

He commended council members for being game-changers in entrenching ideas of infrastructure developments of the town, saying it is also part ofcelebratingthemilestoneof20years in a fledgling democracy as the country ushers in the third decade.

Last week Mthembu said service delivery in KwaDukuza is in leaps and bounds after promising to install more than 500 street lights, from the leafy suburbs to deep rural zones.

Education for a better future JYOTHI LALDAS “THANK you for coming up with an idea that has changed the lives of the youth of the country. You have lifted us up and changed our lives for the better.”

These words were said by student Sphamandla Mtshali, at the Lower Tugela Bulk Water Project (Plumbing) certification and induction ceremony held at Umfolozi FET Chief Albert Luthuli Campus recently.

Mtshali was one of 37 students who had completed a threemonth training course in plumbing at the campus.

The students were selected by their councillors from 27 wards in KwaDukuza through a partnership between Umfolozi College and iLembe.

This is the second group of students to benefit from the programme.

The first group of 38 youngsters graduated in August last year.

AnecstaticMtshalisaid,“Without Umfolozi FET College and iLembe, I would still be roaming in the streets of Doringkop uneducated. Today, you can ask me anything about plumbing and I will be able to assist you.”

fore there was a need for a programme like this. We are happy that we are here today reaping the fruits of hard work. We have reached more than 10 000 beneficiaries.

“This is the last year we will be training students through the NSF students but hope we can train more. We have achieved a lot through hard work,” she said.

She thanked the iLembe District, local municipalities and the companies for coming on board to assist in providing work placement for the students.

Deputy mayor of the iLembe District Dolly Shandu emphasised that each person chooses what they want their future to look like.

“Weallcomefromdifferentbackgrounds and face different circumstances which we have to accept. Today, I am proud that there are females who have qualified as plumbers which wasn’t possible inthepast.Wetrustthataswomen you will do a remarkable job.”

The graduation was also an induction ceremony for a group of 20 new students who will also be taking part in the projects for six months.

A bit about: Fascination or frustration?

NERESH GAYAPERSHAD SO much of our perspective and how we respond to the world around us relates to what we choose to think about. Recently I heard a phrase, the application of which is drastically changing my response to many situations. Over time, as this becomes my habit, it is going to help me with some behaviours I've wanted to change for

a long time.

The phrase was, "Why not choose fascination rather than frustration?"

I used to get frustrated much more often than I do now, because I've learnt that rather than choosing to be frustrated by a situation I can choose to be fascinated instead.

I still get frustrated sometimes, but this mental shift made a positive impact on my life. We all get frustrated. Things don't go our way and we get frustrated.

One of the early lessons we learn as children is that things don't always go the way you want.

Our life experiences have confirmed this. We don't get the promotion, we don't like the way our boss talks to us, our car is making a funny noise, we can't find a parking space, our children are becoming rebellious, and the list continues to become endless.

Our frustrations in life are big and small. In contrast, to be fascinated is to be captivated by some-

thing - to be interested.

When we are interested in something we notice, we observe things.

When we are fascinated by something we are drawn to learn from or about it - quite a different response from frustration and the places it can lead us.

Itisinevitableinlifethatthings don't always go exactly the way we'd like.

Typically people would then say that it is then inevitable that we will be frustrated.

The frustration however, is not the situation itself, but a response or a choice.

We have conditioned ourselves to choose frustration. We can also choose to be fascinated in these situations. Choosing frustration can lead to regret, anger, resentment and more.

Choosing fascination can lead tounderstanding,knowledge,and improved results and relationships. The choice is mine. And the choice is yours.

As I grow older and wiser, Barbie, I am near certain that global peace can be achieved if Jimmy Choos were freely available in the Middle East.

The feminazis bleat on and on about how if you were measured ‘realistically’ from your 1/6 scale, your dimensions would make it impossible for you to menstruate or even stand-up straight because of your massive mammories. Dirty ingrates. Next thing they will be demanding women are allowed to vote.

But, sadly, the hairy-pitted-ones won in 1997 and your handlers decided to add to your waistline. Those bastards turned you into Middleaged Spread Barbie™ before your time, which I believe contributed directly to your break-up with Ken in 2004.

Nobody likes a chunky chick Barbie, even if it takes them seven years to realise you have expanded by a millimetre.

The action figure grapevine has it that you broke up with Ken after coming home one night while serving as a medic in Iraq and found him wearing your thigh high Prada boots; this after you told him repeatedly that he looked more stylish in your Louboutins.

I must say that I have also found much inspiration in the 150 careers you have managed.

I was most impressed with your transition from aerobics instructor to astronaut, a thoroughly logical career move.

My dearest Barbie, I am sending you a belated birthday message, having only found out recently that you turned 55 earlier this month.

Like most little girls around the globe, I spent my childhood awestruck at your long blonde mane, large blue eyes, masterfully crafted polyvinyl chloride (PVC) body and anatomically ambitious measurements.

Even though my parents could never afford to buy me an original Barbie, I was happy to take the castoffs from my slight of build and softly spoken male cousin. This meant you always came to me with freshly styled hair, additional blue eye-shadow and sequined outfits.

In fact, for years I thought that you started your career as Transvestite Barbie™.

In this, your 55th year, I am disgusted that you are still getting flak from feminists around the globe.

They continue to raise their meaty arms, exposing their unshaven pits and belch terms like ‘unrealistic female role-models’.

I approach their scorn as any woman who has grown up on a healthy dose of PVC does: by begging them to wax their upper-lips and watch Twilight.

I have always considered you a wonderfully healthy role model.

I have taken through my life the knowledge that there is nothing that a good binge-andpurge session or buying a new outfit can’t solve, although they should ideally not be done

>> A temporary taxi rank may cause traffic problems, say taxi bosses

HE informal taxi rank next to the Lifestyle Centre finally moved to the new temporary site next to the Sangweni Tourism Centre yesterday (Tuesday 8 April).

The move was delayed despite the deadline given to the KwaDukuza Municipality civil department last Friday.

The rank is being moved allowing the widening of the P445 to continue next to Lifestyle, a decision taken at a recent council meeting.

The temporary site is owned by the municipality. The council report stated that failure to decisively resolve the matter of a temporary rank would result in the contractor making financial claims on the municipality for “standing time”.

The civil department was tasked with putting crusher on the site before taxis started to use it to prevent the grass and sand turning to mud.

Ward six councillor Colin Marsh said the site is expected to be used for at least six months, until September or October, before a permanent rank is built.

“We are hoping the permanent site will be completed before the December holiday season,” he said.

Dolphin Coast Taxi Association member Dan Maharaj said although they had agreed with the municipality to move temporarily, they have some concerns about the site.

Taxis will have to go around the small circle next to the Junction Centre to access the new rank.

“In the short-term it is okay, but we are still worried about the high traffic volume in this area. We just hope there aren’t any accidents, as the roads and circles are very narrow.

“We did ask for one of the lanes next to the

“The executive committee is well aware of the challenges relating to public transport facilities in Ballito,” said Khanyile in the report. “Although negotiations are progressing, the pace has been slow in terms of the decision making.”

This is due to the fact that Shell must refer suchissuesandinitiativeswiththeirboardofdirectors in London. Shell has thus far approved the overall scheme for the area.

He said Shell wants to upgrade the existing service station and IRC proposes to build an N2 city development consisting of the Virgin Active, a McDonald’s fast food restaurant and other chain stores. Including the taxi rank, the construction of the Greenfields intersection and transport facility will cost about R5 500 000.

IRC propose to assist with finance.

The report states IRC has made an official offer on the land. “As soon as the two parties concerned reach an agreement on the transaction, KDM and IRC will finalise the donation agreement,” said Khanyile.

Beez blown away by Tornado WEEKLY REPORTER BEEZ were blown away (5-3) by Tornado Football Club in a Safa KwaDukuza Local Football Association First Division League game played at the Recreation Ground on Saturday.

Tornado led 2-0 at half-time and fans expected the floodgates to open, but Beez did well to go into the break with the scores locked at 2-2 before conceding two late goals which resulted in their 5-3 demise.

Cebo Mthiyane chested Blessing Msimango’s cross before volleying the ball into the top-right hand corner to give Tornado a 1-0 in the 8th minute. Siyabonga Fekayi doubled Tornado’s advantage five minutes later after heading Msimango’s cross powerfully past the hapless Beez keeper.

Trailing 2-0, Beez adopted a new gameplan and threw men forward in the hope of reducing the deficit. They were duly rewarded in the 20th minute after Cebonkolesi Njapha latched onto Mkhuluse Nxumalo’s cross from the right flank to make the score 2-1.

The Tornado lads were holding their heads in disbelief after David Ndlovu scored a brilliant equaliser (2-2) from close range just before the break.

Tornado came back strongly at the start of the second half and quickly restored their lead (3-2) after Msimango blasted the ball from just outside the box into the roof of the net. Their joy was shortlived after Ndlovu lobbed the ball over the advancing Tornado keeper to make the score 3-3.

With barely 10 minutes remaining, fans anticipated a drab 3-3 draw, but man-of-

iLembe Celebrates 20 Years of FREEDOM AND DEMOCRACY The iLembe District Municipality was a hive of activities since Friday, April 4 when the Freedom Flame - a major symbol of the country’s 20 Years of Freedom and Democracy - visited the iLembe Family of Municipalities.

The flame was handed over to iLembe by uThungulu District Municipality at Dokodweni Beach in Gingindlovu with the Honourable Premier Mr. Senzo Mchunu leading the handover alongside UThungulu District Mayor Cllr Thembeka Mchunu. iLembe celebrations were from last Friday led by the District’s Champion MEC, Ms Ntombikayise Sibhidla-Saphetha and His Worship the Mayor of iLembe District Municipality Cllr S.W Mdabe, local mayors and leaders from various communities who made their way to towns, townships and the most rural parts of iLembe celebrating with people from all walks of life. The Freedom Flame celebrations ended with a gathering at the Ogonothini Sports Ground in Ndwedwe where Big Nuz, Mfiliseni Magubane, Ithemba and other well-known artists provided entertainment. Local artists such as NDW Boyz and the Lihlithemba High School choir also performed.

Before the closing ceremony, the flame had made its way to various areas in Mandeni, Maphumulo and KwaDukuza.

The highlight of the celebrations was the visits to homes of centenarian’s i.e. older citizens above 90 years old and the recognition of stalwarts from all over the district.

Speaking at the closing event, MEC Sibhidla-Saphetha said this was a time to not only celebrate but to also show gratitude and understanding of who we are and where we are from.

“We can only do that by voting. Voting is about protecting the very rights we enjoy every day of our lives. Voting is about protecting this very freedom we are celebrating today. We have to show that we understand that this freedom was fought for and that it is written in the blood of our people,” said the MEC. The Freedom Flame started criss-crossing the 11 districts highlighting the light over darkness that has prevailed in this province in the past 20 years at the beginning of March 2014. The iLembe District Municipality handed over the Freedom Flame to eThekwini Metro on Tuesday morning, 8 April.
