2014 Victorian Manufacturing Hall of Fame Awards

TOM’S A GOOD SCOUT By CASEY NEILL HILTON Manufacturing founder Tom Hartley says his drive for success started with Scouts. “I joined when I was 11. I came from a pretty poor background in Leeds and my Scout leader was just a terrific guy,” he said. “He taught me things like ‘good enough is never good enough’ and ‘if you want to achieve something you’ve got to work hard to get there’ and ‘don’t be put down by anybody, it’s within you to do these things’. “He gave me the wherewithal to strive to achieve. That’s where it all started.” The 77-year-old last week joined the Victorian Manufacturing Hall of Fame Honour Roll, a nod reserved for individuals or organisations that have made an outstanding contribution to manufacturing excellence in Victoria. His Dandenong South company earned

Victorian Manufacturing Hall of Fame induction in 2008. Its beginnings were in 1976 after Mr Hartley was twice retrenched. “I thought ’if I’m going to work this hard and this long, I may as well work for myself’,” he said. “So I went and asked four mates to put in $1000 each. We started from there in Hilton Street, in a little tin shed. “I can remember working all night with just a hacksaw cutting through a five-inch bar. “Then the next day we managed to rake up $120-odd and we bought a power hacksaw and it was just fantastic.” Hilton started in a small way, welding farm gates and small pressure water tanks. “We concentrated on doing things for International Harvester, which was just across the road,” Mr Hartley said.

Tom Hartley started Hilton almost 40 years ago. 121102

“They used to bring everything out in packs, and if they had any shortages it meant that they couldn’t build that truck. “So we specialised in quick turnover of small items. We’d work all night if need be, all weekend. “It slowly grew from there and we started to put more people on.” Hilton soon outgrew the tin shed, and two more factory spaces – all while surviving two recessions. About seven years ago the company moved into its Bangholme Road premises. “The beginning of last year we bought the factory next door. So we do all of our aluminium fabrication over there, all our fuel tanks and bumper bars and exhaust pipes and the like,” he said. Hilton is the preferred fuel tank supplier to Volvo and Mack, Kenworth, Mercedes, Iveco and Western Star, and exports to truck producers in Korea, Japan, Sweden and Canada. It’s doubled in size since 2008, employs about 250 people and about four years ago established a factory in Queensland. Mr Hartley often wonders how Hilton has succeeded where other businesses failed. “We’ve always worked hard. We work with a passion, we care about people and

we’ve got a vision for the future,” he said. “We’re constantly upgrading our equipment. We don’t have any major piece of equipment here that’s over three years old. “And this company is like a family to (wife) Margo and I. You do the right thing by your people and that manifests itself. “People are proud here, they’re proud to talk about working here, and the vibes go to your customers, to your suppliers.” Mr Hartley said customer service was another key to Hilton’s success. “If you import parts, you’ve got to pay upfront before you even get them,” he said. “You might have three months or four months deadline between ordering the parts

Tom Hartley with wife Margo and son Todd. 121102 and getting them, so if anything untoward happens in that four months – either increased business or decreased business – there’s not much you can do. “We can manufacture just in time.” Hilton relies only on itself for success – not government support or other businesses. “We’ve got to make the grade ourselves,” Mr Hartley said. “Maybe that’s a bit of migrant kid in me.” He arrived in Australia in 1956 as a third-year apprentice toolmaker. “I’m a Yorkshireman. We moved into Holmesglen Hostel – my mum and dad and two sisters,” he said. “I did an engineering cadetship with Repco, and I suppose in a sense that’s where it all started. “Then my family got a house in Doveton – a Housing Commission home where we lived until I got married to Margo. “We then moved into rooms in Springvale and then built a house in Hallam, and from there we went into Endeavour Hills.” Margo works at Hilton most days and their son Todd is managing director. “When we moved here we had our opening day and I announced that I’d resigned,” Mr Hartley said. “One guy said to Todd ‘the only reason you got this job was because your old man owns the company’. “I’d tried other people coming in as general managers and production managers and none of them were as good as Todd. “We’re proud of both our sons. Our other son Mark is a film director. “Both of them are good people and both of them have got a heart for the community and they both work hard. “We’ve got two terrific grand-daughters as well, now. How good is that?”

“

GROWTH IS A RESULT OF DOING THINGS WELL, AND I THINK WE’LL CONTINUE TO DO THINGS WELL AND THEREFORE I THINK THAT WE’LL CONTINUE TO GROW… TOM HARTLEY

Taking a step back was good for Mr Hartley and for Hilton. “One of the things people always tell you is you should be working on your business, not in your business,” he said. “You can’t get tied up in day-to-day affairs. You’ve got to be working for your long-term.” He’s still at the factory every weekday. “I just work on projects, but I still do a bit of mentoring and I talk to Todd every day about things. I talk to our senior managers,” he said. “It gives you a reason for getting up in the morning. I still enjoy coming in, I still enjoy the challenges. “Growth is a result of doing things well, and I think we’ll continue to do things well and therefore I think that we’ll continue to grow.”

2014 Victorian Manufacturing Hall of Fame Awards

WARM FEELING FOR HEATSTRIP By CASEY NEILL ELEPHANTS at the Melbourne Zoo, sports fans at the MCG and diners on Crown’s promenade all have a Springvale business to thank for keeping them warm. Bob and Marie Reynolds established Thermofilm Australia 26 years ago to produce indoor and outdoor electric heating products utilising a thin film carbon-based heating element. The Heatstrip has been on the market about 20 years, is exported to New Zealand, Europe, USA, Canada and Asia, and last year won the Australian Business Award for Product Value. Thermofilm last week won the Victorian Manufacturing Hall of Fame Small Manufacturer of the Year award. Operations manager Ben Murphy said the Heatstrip’s design, quality and reliability had made it a success. “And they don’t glow and that’s what’s unique,” he said. The product was used in the elephant enclosure at Melbourne Zoo, the MCG Great Southern Stand refurbishment, and in former cricketer Shane Warne’s lounge bar Club 23 at Crown Casino. The venue features an elaborate balcony overlooking the city skyline with Heatstrip heaters. Their slimline, sleek, unobtrusive design blends seamlessly with the balcony and the suspended ceiling mount does not obstruct any skyline views. Mr Murphy regularly – and proudly – spots the product at cafes and other venues across Melbourne and its suburbs. But Heatstrip isn’t all Thermofilm has to offer. It’s been producing heated propagation trays to keep soil warm for about 15 years,

WE ARE GROWING AND IT’S SLOW AND INCREMENTAL. IT’S SUSTAINABLE… BEN MURPHY

and among its best-selling products are accessories like poles to mount its heaters and a Heatstrip controller that can automatically turn off the device to save power. Mr Murphy said staff tested each heater

three times and each product was serial numbered in case of failure. “Safety is absolutely paramount,” he said. About seven people work on the Springvale production line and Thermofilm employs about 18 staff. Mr Murphy, an engineer by trade, has worked there for the past four years and is among five managers that co-own the business. “We don’t bring out a lot of products. But they fill the need of the customer,” he said. “We are growing and it’s slow and incremental. It’s sustainable.”

Thermofilm is facing competition from all over the world. “Not just the guy down the road,” he said. “The Germans and Chinese are trying to copy us at the moment and they can’t do it. “I don’t think about it as pressure. You compete wherever you are for the best solution possible and bring it to market.” Mr Murphy said constant innovation was the key to Thermofilm’s success - and not being afraid to fail. “With innovation comes failures. People that are following you, they hit those failures as well,” he said. “Some products just don’t make it. It’s a constant process.” Quality is another way Thermofilm sets its products apart from cheaper imports. “Nothing goes out that’s not 100 per cent,” he said. “Building relationships with suppliers is the key. They know the quality expectations of the customers. “They’re willing to pay more for a quality product that lasts for years.” And the international market is willing to pay for it, too. In the past two months, about half of Thermofilm’s products have been sent overseas. “It’s very seasonal. Some months it’s about 15 per cent,” Mr Murphy said. “It probably averages about 30 per cent.” And while Thermofilm sells overseas, it’s determined to buy local to support the region. “The response time is a lot quicker and if something goes wrong they’re just around the corner,” Mr Murphy said.

2014 Victorian Manufacturing Hall of Fame Awards

ON THE SHARP EDGE OF TECH By CASEY NEILL DANDENONG South’s SRXGlobal and cutting-edge technology go hand in hand. The electronic manufacturing services (EMS) provider is leading the world with many of its innovations. Last week it won the Large Manufacturer of the Year award at the Victorian Manufacturing Hall of Fame gala dinner. SRXGlobal is the Australian market leader in its field and partners with major innovators domestically and overseas to make its clients’ visions a reality. It has relationships with companies like Planet Innovation, which constantly receive new ideas they’re asked to commercialise. They turn to SRXGlobal for prototyping, development and commercial manufacturing.

SRX has established manufacturing facilities in Malaysia and New Zealand and sales offices in Singapore and the UK to complement its headquarters on Kitchen Road. The headquarters has just under 200 employees and also provides manufacturing and electronic service and repair. Up to 75 per cent of SRXGlobal’s products end up overseas, with the United States the main recipient and Europe not far behind. The medical, communications and defence sectors are its core markets. It creates display systems for attack helicopters, battery power control systems for foot soldier electronics, remote radio communication to base systems and data communication security products. It also manufactures automotive engine management systems for V8

Supercars, mining and industrial lighting and automatic door control systems. General manager Jeff Malone can see 15 to 20 per cent growth year on year for the next few, with the medical and defence industries the key to making it happen. He said the company was developing a cheek swab system to replace blood tests and an ultrasound machine the size of a phone. “The doctor walks around the hospital with an ultrasound like a stethoscope,” he said. “Or forget the hospital – he can go out in the field. “That’s the kind of design and manufacturing that’s happening in Melbourne right now. “If we’re not continuously breaking new ground we’ll fall behind.”

KEYSBOROUGH’S TriMas Corporation was named a finalist for this year’s Victorian Manufacturing Hall of Fame Large Manufacturer of the Year award. In May 2008 it was inducted into the Victorian Manufacturing Hall of Fame and highlighted as a role model for other manufacturers. TriMas manufactures and supplies automotive accessories, including tow bars and roof racks, to the transport industry. Embracing the idea of a global economy has helped the company to succeed locally. It’s focused on design and value-adding rather than competing with cheap labour from places like China. Keeping its research and design in Dandenong has also been a focus, and last September TriMas received $250,000 from the State Government’s Investing in Manufacturing Technology (IMT) program to buy and install robotic welding cells.

BULLETPROOF BUSINESS By CASEY NEILL TRANSGLAZE isn’t daunted by cheap imports. The Dandenong South mass transit window company has been competing globally since Robert Giannotti and Darren Laidler established it in 2007. They felt there was a gap in the market for a window glazing service for the transport industry, and their hunch has paid off. TransGlaze won the 2012 Greater Dandenong Chamber of Commerce Manufacturing Award, and was last week

SEMMA is an independent alliance which represents a broad cross section of manufacturers throughout Melbourne’s south east region. Our key focus is to influence government on manufacturing issues, market and promote members and the region’s capability and create opportunities for members.

Mr Giannotti and Mr Laidler have about 22 staff, manufacturing glass for buses, trams and ferries and export to Austria, the Czech Republic, the UK, Indonesia, Malaysia, Fiji, the US, Canada and China. Mr Giannotti said competing with imports was about knowing your niche capabilities. “It’s no use us going to China and competing on 10,000 unit builds,” he said. “But hey – they need 300 of these specific-made windows. Other players are not interested in that, or they’re not geared for that. “To scale down from building 10,000 windows in a month to 300 is painful for them.” Mr Laidler said TransGlaze was always competing against “the cheap price from China”. “So it’s very important that we’re highly innovative in how we go about making something,” he said. “The real formula for success is that key word, innovation. “If you can continually innovate all the time you stand a very good chance of staying competitive.” TransGlaze invests more than 10 per cent of its turnover every year in research, development and innovation. “It’s a lot of money that comes out of profit that goes back into the business,” he said. Accountants have told the pair they’d be better off buying investment properties. “But when you’re driven to something and you believe in something it’s very hard to say ‘I think I’ll just starve it of any opportunity’,” Mr Laidler said. “It’s like a baby. You’ve got to keep feeding it all the time with love and with attention and with care because that’s what grows it. “It will grow with nurturing and it will starve if it’s ignored.” Mr Laidler said train and bus builders were always looking for the next design “because that’s what sells”. They’re looking to take weight out – the lighter the vehicle is, the less fuel it will use. “In the old days we made windows thicker and thicker,” he said. “They’d withstand anything, but they weighed tonnes. “We’re forever trying to lighten the glass, make it stronger, make it more competitive.” Using local content is a priority for TransGlaze. “We probably average about 90 per cent local content in everything that we do,” Mr Laidler said.

People have got to believe in it.” TransGlaze also believes in its people. “We drive it, but without our culture, without our workers, without their commitment to care and quality we wouldn’t exist,” Mr Giannotti said. “We’re a pretty tight bunch. A lot of our people have been with us right through.”

THEY’RE FLEXIBLE AT FLEXICUT By CASEY NEILL

FLEXICUT Engineering director Robbie O’Brien founded the Dandenong company in 2006 at age 26. Last week he was a finalist for the Young Manufacturer of the Year title at the Victorian Manufacturing Hall of Fame awards. He started his career as an apprentice fitter and turner with Larry Perkins Motor Sport, where he was introduced to a computer numerical control (CNC) machine during the third year of his apprenticeship.

“

WE’RE SELLING A SERVICE, THE EXPERIENCE … WE WANT REPEAT BUSINESS FROM OUR CUSTOMERS… ROBBIE O’BRIEN

Mr O’Brien regularly worked back to 10pm to get the job done and continue his learning and development. When he finished his apprenticeship he went to work with leading CNC machine sales organisation John Hart and spent two years learning more about the machine range and how various businesses used them. He had an unwavering belief he could do it better than most, borrowed $30,000, bought a secondhand machine and leased a small factory. Larry Perkins Motor Sport was his first customer and word of mouth helped the business grow.

Mr O’Brien understood that motorsport needed first-class quality, delivery as close to immediately as possible, and a price that didn’t reflect the speed or quality. When Larry Perkins employees moved to new teams they took FlexiCut with them. Today, FlexiCut can not only machine but also weld, fabricate, grind and engage in prototyping and reverse engineering. Its turnover has grown from nothing to more than $1 million in just over six years, and Mr O’Brien expects the growth to continue. He’s passionate about being at the forefront of technology, and he was named the Australian Manufacturing Technology Institute Limited (AMTIL) 2008 Advanced Manufacturing Young Ambassador of the Year. The award included an extended trip to Japan to visit sites and learn more about CNC machining. FlexiCut Engineering is committed to offering same-day quotes wherever possible, often starting a job before their competitors have offered a price. And FlexiCut often stamps a customer’s logo or name in their part free of charge. “We’re selling a service, the experience,” Mr O’Brien said. “We want repeat business from our customers.” He’d planned to establish his business in Dandenong and then move it to his small home town. “But Dandenong’s been too good to me. Everything’s right on my doorstep,” he said. “The phone’s always ringing with people who want to help you out.” FlexiCut was also a nominee for the 2013 Greater Dandenong Chamber of Commerce Premier Regional Business Awards.

ADVANCING MANUFACTURING By CASEY NEILL ATTAR in Keysborough was a finalist for the Victorian Manufacturing Hall of Fame’s Technology in Manufacturing award. The company describes itself as a progressive small to medium enterprise interested in advancing Victoria and south east Melbourne’s manufacturing capability. “We are very honoured to be short-listed for this award,” ATTAR managing director David Lake said. “Our technologies empower companies to build effective strategies and a solid plan for improved quality and reliability, which is key to becoming a supplier of choice.” Dr Gary Martin and Don McConville

founded ATTAR in 1986 to conduct materials testing and research using the most advanced techniques available, and to provide non-destructive testing (NDT) training to Australian industry. It’s gradually expanded its capabilities to meet market demand, and now offers the highest level of NDT training, consulting and specialist NDT services offered by a single provider. ATTAR delivers leading practice engineering testing, training and consulting services covering an expansive array of disciplines, including materials engineering, asset condition monitoring, floor consulting and expert witness services.

Ciriello’s cup of life AS THE final minutes of the Hockey World Cup ticked away, former Springvale/Noble Park player Chris Ciriello was able to reflect on the successes and struggles he’d endured to get there. Australian Kookaburras defender Ciriello, 28, from Endeavour Hills, had persevered through one of his toughest months leading into the World Cup, held from 31 May to 15 June in The Hague, Netherlands. His paternal grandfather - Augustino Ciriello - died just before Ciriello was set to depart for the World Cup and shortly after arriving in Europe his father-in-law suffered a heart attack. Ciriello didn’t know if he still wanted to go to the World Cup, but his father - Greater Dandenong Warriors Hockey Club coach Lou Ciriello - convinced him that his grandfather would want him in the Netherlands representing Australia. “Just before the World Cup my grandfather died - Dad’s dad - and I was umming and ahhing whether I went to the World Cup or whether I went late or what the whole process was,” Ciriello said. “I spoke with my Dad about it and he said ’I’m sure that if anything he’d (his grandfather) want you to play’, so I stayed with the team and the first couple of days in England were tough. “A lot of pressure eased off aside from a few more headaches along the way - we bought a house and my father-in-law had a heart attack as well, so a few life events happened within a week and a half.” Hockey was there to keep Ciriello ticking along throughout and his choice to stick with the team paid off following a phenomenal tournament for Australia - with a

great deal of the success coming from Ciriello and the other defenders. Australia advanced to the World Cup final following a 5-1 semi-final whitewash of Argentina. Ciriello starred with a hat-trick to guide the Aussies to a 6-1 win over the Netherlands. Rotated off for the final minutes of the match, Ciriello was able to enjoy the celebrations and reflect on his monumental achievement. As Australia’s expert drag flicker, Ciriello was most pleased with his opening goal of the hattrick as he struck it past former club team-mate, Dutch goalkeeper Jaap Stockman. “While I was sitting on the bench I felt quite relieved amongst a lot of things as everything had eased down,” Ciriello said. “Then I got those couple of minutes on the bench to realise ‘yeah we’ve just played in a World Cup and we’ve won it’. “It was good to see that and think about everything we’ve been through for the last month and a bit for the World Cup and my mind’s a bit clearer now more than anything else.” As well as his seven-goal tournament haul, Ciriello was equally proud of the defensive work of his team-mates as they restricted their opponents to only three goals for the World Cup while Australia piled on 31 of its own. His advice for the next generation of Dandenong area hockey players - playing at his old stomping grounds at Dandenong Oasis is simple: hone the basics first and the rest will come later. Ciriello’s next challenge will hopefully be announced this week with selections for the Australian Commonwealth Games hockey squad set to be confirmed.

Chris Ciriello seals his World Cup success with a kiss.

High-rise Dandy By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS RESIDENTS say the council’s proposed housing strategy fails to bar medium and high-rise development in Dandenong’s quiet residential streets. Over the past year, residents have petitioned against the breadth of the council’s Residential Growth Zone, which covers 11 per cent of the municipality and allows for high-rises as tall as 13.5 metres in desirable streets such as Macpherson Street and Grace Avenue. In its proposed strategy, the council has not shrunk the four square kilometre zone, which includes an area that bounds Putney Street, Dandenong Creek, Clow Street and Foster Street. Instead it has broken down the zone - as well as residential zones in Noble Park and Springvale - into red, yellow and green zones. The most developer-friendly is the green zone, five minutes’ walk

from the CBD, which allows for apartments and townhouses of up to four storeys. Macpherson Street and Grace Avenue fall in the outlying red zone - 15 minutes’ walk from the CBD which limits developments to up to two storeys. Councillor Matthew Kirwan said he’d prefer the red zone taken out of the Residential Growth Zone completely. He said it “won’t be possible” to build two-storey apartments in the predominantly single-storey streets, if zoned in the stricter General Residential Zone. “Neighbourhood character is taken account of in the General Residential Zone, not a Residential Growth Zone.” The council’s approach was contrary to residents’ “not unreasonable” desire to shrink what “may be the largest Residential Growth Zone of any municipality”, he said.

“Putting apartments in the very centre of these activity centres not a 10-15 minute walk away - is how you can encourage apartments in the very centres of Dandenong, Noble Park and Springvale. “It makes them come alive, at the same time protecting family streets from overdevelopment. “The data analysis that was published last year by the council said that the size of our Residential Growth Zone is inhibiting apartment development applications in the very centre of the ... zone.” Resident and petitioner Melinda Puglisi said the strategy’s focus on housing design - with no mention of the Residential Growth Zone - suggested the council was “sweeping the issue under the carpet”. “They promised us a zones review but this is not what we are getting.” The council’s city planning director Jody Bosman told a council

meeting this month the council’s approach was “more refined” than a simple rezoning. “We are now talking about changes in built form height. “How that ultimately translates into zonings or changes of zoning will be part of the next step.” He said the Residential 1 zone now known as the General Residential Zone - could still accommodate two-storey apartments. “There is nothing under the Residential 1 Zone that would have precluded them. “In fact they could have been even of a higher scale than two storeys under the Residential 1 Zone.” Public information sessions will be held by the council in Noble Park and Springvale tomorrow and Dandenong on Thursday. Public online and written submissions are open until 10 July. Details: greaterdandenong.com/ residentialplanningzones

people were able to move in and out of the square easily. “It still pays homage to the town hall (Drum Theatre) across the road. The screen and the municipal building actually frame the clock tower.” Mr Dawe worked at Federation Square for five years, has played a part in big screens across Australia and New Zealand and set up Dandenong’s, which is seven metres wide and full high definition. “Currently, as far as I know, it’s the highest resolution for its size in Australia,” he said. “It’s great to have the opportu-

nity to do it all from the start - to get it all nailed and exactly how we need it.” The screen can do live links with other screens, show live footage from two cameras positioned in the square and take live satellite feeds. “In the future it will be able to take feeds that we transmit from the Drum Theatre, so it can be an overflow venue for shows that are happening at the Drum,” Mr Dawe said. It will broadcast messages about local events, programs and services, support initiatives like Refugee Week, and share community opinion through Tweets and texts.

“It’s a system developed by partners of ours in Queensland at Queensland University of Technology,” Mr Dawe said. “It’s a fantastic program called Discussions in Space, whereby we can tweet and text to the screen on a certain conversation topic and we can share those Tweets and texts with other partner screens. “It gives us a platform for a conversation that’s multi-space.” The square doesn’t yet have a name.

DANDENONG’S big screen will get a workout during the FIFA World Cup. The new civic centre’s top feature will broadcast all the early morning group matches each afternoon and show the final live on 13 July. “It is a place for those important moments - for shared expression and shared experience,” screen manager Thomas Dawe said. “When there is a large event like the World Cup ... it’s somewhere where people can come down and share that experience communally and together. “It is a public space and we want the public to take ownership of it.” Mr Dawe said the final’s screening would also include activities and food and drinks in the square, on the corner of Lonsdale and Walker streets. “The final will be a huge event here live,” he said. “There’s a possibility of activations happening for the semis and the finals as well.” The World Cup is the square’s second big test, the first being its grand opening on 12 April. “The opening was the handover of the space to the community,” Mr Dawe said. “We had fantastic feedback on that. “The space really works because it’s a natural thoroughfare from the station to the other precincts. “It held people really well and

Lonsdale streets ahead THE CITY OF GREATER DANDENONG’S NEW LONSDALE STREET CIVIC CENTRE INSPIRED THE JOURNAL TEAM TO LOOK BACK THROUGH CENTRAL DANDENONG’S TRANSFORMATION FROM SWAMPLAND TO A BUSTLING SHOPPING AND BUSINESS HUB.

WHAT’S IN A NAME?

By CASEY NEILL THE main streets have changed vastly over the years - except their names. This got us wondering how these names came to be and why they’ve stood the test of time. So the Journal will run new occasional series ’What’s in a Street Name?’ to share the stories behind Greater Dandenong thoroughfares, starting with Lonsdale Street. Not only did Captain William Lonsdale give his name to Dandenong’s main street, he named the suburb itself. Governor Sir Richard Bourke in 1836 chose the soldier and administrator to be the first police magistrate at Port Phillip to manage unauthorised settlers. He was the government’s first representative

Captain William Lonsdale.

Lonsdale Street had started to take shape by 1901.

in Melbourne and was tasked with conducting a census of the population and with protecting Aborigines. In 1851, when Victoria became a separate colony, Charles La Trobe nominated Lonsdale as its first colonial secretary and he was colonial treasurer in 1854. According to Dandenong and District Historical Society, Lonsdale had a cattle run in the Dan-

denong area named Bigning, which his nephew Alfred Langhorne oversaw. The society can find no clear records of how the name Dandenong came into being but the honour is generally attributed to Lonsdale. In an official report on the district in 1837 he spelt the name Dan-y-nong - part of the area inhabited by the tribe of Western Port Aborigines known as Wooeewoorong.

It’s thought that Lonsdale liked the sound of Dandenong better and it was as near the native name as the authorities could make it, so the creek, the district and township took the name. Lonsdale Streets in Dandenong and Melbourne and Point Lonsdale were named after him, and Mount Martha for his wife. Want to know where a Greater Dandenong street got its name?

ABOUT 40,000 needles are exchanged for clean ones each month at Foster Street Clinic in Dandenong but its managers say that’s barely enough. “I hope that will increase. I want to double it,” the clinic’s operational manager Debra Alexander told a business breakfast last week. The clinic argues it is limited not by funding but by the communitywide stigma that still surrounds its 20-year-old service. The stigma had repelled drug users who needed help, created uneasiness with the clinic’s neighbours and extended even to staff at health centres, the clinic’s addiction medicine specialist David Jacka told the Journal.

“We’re not shunned by the health industry per se, rather by people who work in it. “They are normal people who work in our services. Unless they get experience or education, they reflect the prejudices of the population. “Even some GPs don’t look after drug users. They say it’s too hard.” The clinic’s life-saving benefits had been obscured because of the common fears about injectable drug-users. As Dr Jacka put it: “The clinic is not about encouraging more drug use. Our focus is to stop people still sharing needles.” For Ms Alexander, more needle exchanges increase the chance of engaging drug users and directing

them into methadone treatment, and job and training services. It also means about 30,000 fewer dirty needles on the streets each month. She said needle exchange clinics had played a big role in reducing the risk of spreading bloodborne disease such as HIV, AIDS and forms of hepatitis. “The return on investment is about $1.2 billion of savings in direct health care costs because of these services,” she said. Their clientele wasn’t always easily identifiable - they include steroid users, tradies, young and old, and office workers. There had been some teething problems as the exchange turned to a new model and moved closer to Dandenong railway station last year.

One success has been a Monday and Friday breakfast club - a chance for clients to get a good morning feed as well as to chat with staff. “We can talk with them about reducing the risks associated with their drug use, and also even better to get them stopping,” Ms Alexander said. Dr Jacka said the clinic could reach out further if it opened beyond its weekday 9am-5pm opening hours and had more outreach services, such as visiting nightclubs. “The need to access clean syringes isn’t limited to 9-5, you can buy drugs anytime, day and night.” Ms Alexander said in the end, demand had to justify the extra services.

By-laws call to target industrious hoons By CASEY NEILL POLICE want new by-laws to curb hooning in Greater Dandenong’s industrial areas. Greater Dandenong Highway Patrol’s Senior Sergeant Scott Roberts said he had been working with the City of Greater Dandenong to target groups gathering at night, particularly in Dandenong South. “The council is looking at introducing by-laws to prohibit this activity in industrial areas,” he said. “If they haven’t got any reason to be there, they’ll be subject to council by-law fines. “Nothing attracts a crowd like a crowd. They’re only down there for one reason.

“It’s going to end badly one of these nights.” Sen Sgt Roberts said police had the authority to enforce by-laws and the council would put the proposal to the public. “They’re probably looking at somewhere around August to September, in time for the summer period,” he said. “We need to look at this as an allof-community response.” Sen Sgt Roberts said gatherings of “a couple of hundred cars” in Dandenong South were common and burnouts and street racing ensued. “The factory owners have had enough,” he said. “They’ve got CCTV shooting

out of their factories. “These people need to know that in this day and age, there is a proliferation of surveillance devices. “We’ll be making use of them.” He said the behaviour was drawing “precious resources” away from where they were needed most. “It means our services are not going to be available at high trauma times,” he said. The by-laws would be in addition to operations with marked and unmarked police cars, hidden cameras, vehicle impound measures and more. Sen Sgt Roberts urged anyone who found out about organised hoon meetings to inform police and to report any hoon activity

they witnessed. “If anyone has video footage, we’re only too happy to investigate it,” he said. “We can flush these people out of there.” The council’s city planning, design and amenity director Jody Bosman said council officers were constantly monitoring and evaluating local laws to ensure they met community expectations. “When changes are formally being considered, council has an obligation to consult with the community before making any decisions,” he said. “Council is not currently considering any such changes.”

Dandenong’s meat marvel Rob Boyle brought home the bacon at the annual Australian Bacon Awards announced last week. The acclaimed Lonsdale Street butcher won the Victorian short cut division on his first try. Rob carefully crafts his bacon according to traditional methods, curing it in salt and brown sugar then hanging and air drying it. Some of the bacon is then smoked. Bacon Week, an initiative of Australian Pork Limited, is designed to highlight the quality of Australian pork and the competition it faces from imports. AN ACCUSED speeding motorcyclist showed a short fuse in Dandenong Magistrates’ Court last week. His case had been temporarily stood down while he tracked down a Legal Aid lawyer.

In less than three years WallaraTV has grown from an idea and one camera to become a free-to-view YouTube Channel with more than 60 videos and a collective viewership of thousands. The Channel 31 initiative means the Wallara story will now reach an estimated 1.4 million homes throughout Melbourne.

Sometimes it can be too successful, as president Peter Helmore told guests at a business awards breakfast last Wednesday. One of the chamber’s members, Paterson Cheney, was apparently so impressed by the efforts of the chamber’s executive officer Jacquie Brown, that it “pinched” her for themselves. But then the “power of networking” worked in reverse. “Jungle drums” were beating among the chamber’s contacts, and within days a worthy replacement, Amanda Checken, was found.

ground is probably the last thing that the ALP and the Coaltion want to promote ahead of November’s state election. Greater Dandenong Chamber of Commerce MC James Sturgess reeled off a list of common items after political rivals Martin Pakula and Gordon Rich-Phillips addressed the business breakfast last week. Mr Sturgess, equipped with a sharp legal mind, said the agreed items were: a strong budget position, triple-A credit rating, overseas trips to promote Victoria as “open for business” and improving local industry access to the government’s major projects. The pair of MPs grudgingly agreed on each point.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR In the mail I’M SICK and tired of hearing from postal department executives that people don’t write letters any more, such is the report from the media. Rubbish, I do, hence this one. To write a letter or send a card is a pleasure to either send or receive. Over the years I have received many cards and letters which I have kept and peruse regularly. As for receiving text messages for special occasions, I take it as an insult. If you haven’t the incentive to make time to purchase a card or make a phone call, then don’t bother.

I’ve written many letters about various issues and received replies (execpt three) on all occasions. Society is sadly missing the point using the excuse ‘I’ve not the time’. Do you know what, make the time, you will if you really want to, won’t you? Please do not insult me by sending texts, send a card. The thought of you choosing the card and posting it means more than you can possibly know, or ring me, I’d love to hear your voice, but please no more texts for special occasions. Beverley Hargreaves, Noble Park.

LEGENDARY Journal reporter Marg Stork, who died on Tuesday, covered news and events in Greater Dandenong for 74 years. So sad. What a great lady who helped promote so many good things in the community. There will never be another Marg Stork. Don Cameron

Kinders move By NARELLE COULTER

THE State Government will invest nearly $2 million to relocate three Greater Dandenong kindergartens. Springvale Rise Kindergarten will be co-located with Springvale Rise Primary School. Dandenong West Kindergarten will be moved to Dandenong West Primary School and Dandenong Park Early Years facility will be moved to Dandenong Primary School. The new facilities will include rooms for three and fouryear-old kindergarten programs, and community rooms for families to hold playgroups. Minister for Early Childhood Development Wendy Lovell said building a kindergarten on the same site as a school made sense for Dandenong families. “This is not only more convenient for families, it allows a child’s progress to be better supported as they grow and ensures a smooth transition to school.” The relocated kindergartens will open their doors at the start of term one next year. Greater Dandenong director of community services Mark Doubleday said no plans had been made for the sites that were being vacated. “Council does not yet have a position on what will happen to the existing kindergartens. “It will take some time for the planning and building of the new facilities and the existing kindergartens will continue to provide services in the meantime,” he said.

Five months’ jail A MAN already on remand awaiting a County Court committal was jailed for five months and fined $2500 over a string of other offences committed last year. Daniel Mario Pehar, 24, formerly of Endeavour Hills, pleaded guilty to 15 charges - including several counts of driving unregistered vehicles, driving while suspended, and handling stolen number plates - at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on Monday. His lawyer Effie Lagos said Pehar’s life had “spiralled out of control” due to his escalating use of the drug ‘ice’ in the past three years. Last year, Pehar had been homeless - “living and sleeping and driving his car”. “He had no funds to pay for his vehicle to be registered. He relied on illegal means to drive.” Pehar was also charged with

possessing a prohibited weapon - a 20-centimetre kitchen knife under his car seat - and breaching a community corrections order. In May 2013, he breached a family violence safety order by visiting his Endeavour Hills mother’s home “to resolve things”, police prosecutor Gary Steel said. The accused damaged the front door in his attempts to get inside. Magistrate Jack Vandersteen, who had rejected a bail application by Pehar in April, said the hearing had allowed Pehar to clean “two slates” of summary offences and the community corrections breach ahead of his County Court committal. “If you had made the most of the opportunity before you on the community corrections order, you wouldn’t have been in the position of the Office of Public Prosecutions matters (in

the County Court). He sentenced Pehar to five months’ jail for breaching his community corrections order. It was to be served concurrently with a 90-day term for several counts of handling stolen goods, possessing a prohibited weapon, criminal damage and breaching a family violence safety notice. He was also fined $2500 on several counts of driving unregistered vehicles and $500 for twice failing to answer bail. Mr Vandersteen said he didn’t suspend Pehar’s licence because “he’s not going to be released for quite some time.” “The OPP matter’s going to keep him in for quite some time. I’m just being practical from that point of view.” Pehar, who has been remanded in custody since 12 March, appears in Melbourne Magistrates’ Court for a committal mention on 12 August.

Time to open the gate, mate FOUNDATIONS are finally being prepared for Springvale’s long-awaited Asian Gateway. Members of the project’s proponents, the Springvale Asian Business Association, as well as Greater Dandenong Council staff and councillors announced the controversial project’s go-ahead last week. SABA spokesman Stan Chang was reluctant to concede the decade-long struggle for the project was finally over. “We’re already planning for the worst,” he joked. “This whole project is for the common good. We have tried to accommodate everybody.” Councillor Youhorn Chea

said the gateway would become Springvale’s “icon” - a testament to its flourishing Asian community. “It has been my dream as well. “It is a tribute to refugees who came here to live and have done very well. A lot of businesspeople have worked hard and become millionaires.” Councillor Sean O’Reilly said it was right for the council to support Springvale’s businesses behind the project. Mayor Jim Memeti said the project was part of an investment injection in the town, including the recent grade separation and railway station

transformation. Doubts had surfaced among councillors as recently as April over a possible cost blowout with tenders for the nine-metre gateway exceeding $1 million. The council had wavered, but recommitted to the project, managing the creation itself and reining in the budgeted cost to $650,000. Before that, the South East Melbourne Vietnamese Association had attacked the “too Chinese” design - leading to a compromise including Chinese, Cambodian, Vietnamese and English calligraphy. - Cam Lucadou-Wells

Legal, audit and risk management skills and expertise together with ability to ensure the Market’s ongoing commercial success and growth are essential. Knowledge of the local area would be highly desirable. Remuneration levels are commensurate with community Board standards. Enquiries to Director Corporate Services Mick Jaensch (03) 9239 5256.

Turning the tide of history By ANNE MASLIN NOBLE PARK pensioner Alf Maslin played a crucial part in history when he left an American troop ship and waded onto French sand as part of the D-Day landings in June 1944. The 70th anniversary of D-Day was marked earlier this month by poignant ceremonies across Britain and along the Normandy coast. For Alf the anniversary was a chance to quietly reflect on the remarkable invasion which turned the course of history. Now 91 and living in a residential care home in Noble Park, Alf vividly remembers the events of 1944 and the battles that followed until the Nazi surrender in 1945. Alf was a soldier in the British Army and on 5 September 1943 he was transferred to the Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers workshop in the 214th Brigade of the 43rd (Wessex) Infantry Division where he repaired and maintained trucks and other vehicles. In early 1944 he was sent to Dover for small arms and infantry training in preparation for D-Day. On 6 June the invasion of Normandy began and World War II took a critical turn as Britain and the Allies went on the offensive. British troops were massed and taken down to ports on the south coast. A great armada of troop carriers left England and sailed across the English Channel. Gold Beach was the Allied code name for the centre of the invasion landing area in Normandy. It lay between Omaha Beach where US forces landed and Juno Beach where the Canadians landed. The landing area was eight kilometres wide and the primary objective of the force’s landing at Gold Beach was to seize the town of Bayeux, the Caen-Bayeux road, and the port of Arromanches. On 6 June Alf was still in England waiting to be sent over to France. His REME division was in the rearguard. Caen, the division’s major objective, was still in German hands at the end of D-Day. Then his commanding officer told them “Well boys, the balloon goes up tomorrow!”

These robbers poured it on A MAN was bashed as well as having his face covered with an unknown liquid by a group of robbers in Noble Park last Tuesday. The 46-year-old Noble Park man was approached by three males, described as African in appearance, near the Lightwood and Corrigan roads intersection about 5am. He was asked for a cigarette, then punched in the head. A liquid was poured on his wounds, which caused a “burning pain”, Acting Detective Sergeant Luke Kirton of Greater Dandenong CIU said. The man was struck to the back of the head, causing him to lose consciousness. When he awoke, his wallet containing keys, tobacco and a large amount of cash was missing. Acting Detective Sergeant Kirton said the victim was taken to Dandenong Hospital with a broken eye socket and red marks on his face from the liquid. Any information to Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Armed with a bloody syringe Jenny and Alf Maslin with a picture of Alf taken in 1943. 121798 The following day it was Alf’s turn. He left for France from Gosport, boarding an American troop ship carrying armoured vehicles and supplies. He landed at approximately 6pm in the Seine Bay near Caen and Bayeux. To get ashore, they used a landing craft tank. Whole workshops with lathes and equipment had to be landed as well, using floating roadways. Alf landed in three feet of water, which deepened as the tide came in. The amphibious tanks also had to be unloaded. The troops waded ashore and soon found themselves three to four miles behind the front line where they could hear the infantry fighting. Alf and his mates were directed inland to an orchard. Their engines had to be covered with “dum-dum”, a sticky goop like

Blu-Tack which was designed to disguise them. Alf slept under a troop transporter and tucked into tinned sausages, tinned bacon, white bread and evaporated milk. He didn’t mind the rations and a tin of 50 cigarettes a week, which were used for bargaining with the local people. The sound of buzz bombs overhead were daunting but he just “hoped for the best” and remembers a great sense of comradeship. Alf’s job was servicing the vehicles, mainly engine changes, under camouflage. On 4 July the 43rd (Wessex) Division moved to Caen, the ancient birthplace of William the Conqueror and a vital road and rail junction that the Allies needed to capture before they could advance south through the Falaise Plain. The 43rd (Wessex) Division was a finely-trained unit waiting to face its first battle.

Picture: ROB CAREW Until the moment that the German armies pulled back across the Rhine early in March, the 43rd (Wessex) Division was called upon to take a leading part in every one of the major operations launched by the British Second Army and esablished a remarkable reputation for its hard-hitting determination. The battle record of the 43rd Wessex includes the epic assault of Mont Pincon, the Anglo-American offensive at Geilenkirchen, the first British attack inside Germany, and the liberation of the Holland. Alf played his part in these operations, finally moving into Holland. This was a life-changing moment because in Hengelo Alf met Jenny, his wife of 70 years. The war meant terrible things for many, many people, but sometimes there was a happy ending. Anne Maslin is Alf’s daughter-in-law

A MAN was held up by a robber armed with a blood-filled syringe in a Dandenong car park last Tuesday morning. Acting Detective Sergeant Luke Kirton, of Greater Dandenong CIU, said the 33-year-old man was approached from behind as he walked through the car park at Wilma Avenue and Hemmings Street about 11.30am. The robber demanded the man’s wallet, which contained a large amount of cash. The thief was described as 40-50 years old, Caucasian, of thin build with grey short hair in a Mohawk style. He was also said to have poor teeth and lettered-tattoos on his left fingers. Any information to Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Crooks cashed in CASH was stolen during a weekend burglary of a Springvale South therapy centre. Burglars smashed a window to gain entry to the business at Heatherton Road between 6pm on 15 June and 10am on 16 June. Police said a dark-coloured four-wheel-drive wagon was seen in the area around the time of the burglary. Any information to Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

A SPRINGVALE girl has sown the seeds of charity and in the process helped feed hundreds of hungry locals. Six-year-old Daniella Evens-Poulter, with the help of her dad Stuart, grew a 36 kilogram Atlanic giant pumpkin in the yard of their Springvale home. The giant vegetable took 120 days to balloon to its massive size in a fertile patch of garden that also sprouted 10 hefty Kent pumpkins. The Kents were divided up between family and friends. However, what to do with the Atlantic giant wasn’t so simple. “There is only so much pumpkin you can eat in a season,” said Stuart. That was until a charity collector knocked at the door asking for donations to help feed needy children. The visit puzzled Daniella. “She asked why they needed the money, she didn’t like the idea that kids go hungry. “I explained sometimes that can happen to adults as well. “We decided together that the pumpkin should go to people we don’t know, that could use a healthy free feed. She thought it was a great idea,” said Stuart. Dandenong-based food charity Avocare gratefully accepted the giant donation. Avocare chef and hospitality trainer Dale Payne roasted portions of pumpkin and combined them with roast chicken, baby potatoes and gravy.

Left: Young Springvale green thumb Daniella Evens-Poulter.

The meals were given away as part of Avocare’s weekly free dinner program. The rest he conjured into a delicious honey roast pumpkin soup served with pistachio and chive pesto, parmesan crisps and yoghurt. Dale estimated the pumpkin would feed between 200 and 300 people. “The great thing is not actually the pumpkin, it’s about the community and people giving to each other,” he said. Stuart’s one request on handing over the giant vegetable was that the seeds be returned to him so that he could start the cycle of giving all over again. “That was part of the deal. I bought the seeds and they cost about $10 because they are quite unusual. “I usually keep my seeds from the season before so I said bring me back the seeds, I’ll sow them again in future and see what happens.” Stuart and Daniella make a formidable team in the garden

growing a variety of organic vegetables including tomatoes, carrots and onions. “I’ve tried to get her into healthy vegetables. Because I’m a gardener, we enjoy watching them grow and eating the food together. “It’s now progressed to the stage where she’s contribued to feeding hundreds of people. That will stay with her all her life.” He hopes the donation will inspire other gardeners to be generous with their excess produce. “I hope this could be seen as a cue for other gardeners in the community to also assist services such as Acocare. “We the gardeners have the ability and place and others have the need. No-one should ever go hungry.” For a copy of Dale’s roast pumpkin soup recipe go to the Dandenong Journal website at starcommunity.com.au/Dandenong.

NEW HOMES & LAND

BUILT ON HONESTY Whether buying for a home or an investment, it’s a very personal experience. It is vital to work with a trustworthy builder to not only deliver a quality product but to have the buyer’s best interests at heart. Gem Homes, a proud Australian builder, will in 2014 celebrate 30 years of building homes and delivering investment properties. Gem Homes prides itself on its honesty and upfront nature and as such there are never any hidden costs or grey areas. With its highly qualified sales and construction teams it is there to make the journey as seam free and enjoyable as possible. Getting started with house and land

packages from $350,000, every Gem Home is finished with the highest quality fittings and is renowned for its flowing designs which allow seamless movement throughout. Ideal for families, each home makes ingenious use of available storage space to create hidden away areas to keep the linen and kids’ toys out of sight. When buyers work with Gem Homes, the sparkling service starts well before the keys are handed over. Right from the outset, the Gem Homes

team work with clients to determine precisely what they want and what they need. Whether it’s finding the perfect block of land, building one of Gem Homes own plans or simply creating a dream design from scratch, the Gem sales team has the experience and expertise to bring dreams to life. With standard features including floating floorboards to all living areas, double garages and a walk-in pantry, there is something to appeal to every buyer. But it doesn’t end there.

Looking closer visitors will see LED downlights throughout, stone benchtops and glass splashback to the kitchen. Building with Gem Homes gives the confidence that comes with experience and after three decades in the industry Carl Henczel ensures that every home he builds stands the test of time. Whether looking for the perfect family home or the jewel of an investment portfolio, Gem Homes should be the first call. Clients will be so impressed by what Gem can offer that it’s the only call they will need to make. To discuss the perfect Gem, contact the team on 5955 9547.

Smash site safety upgrade By LACHLAN MOORHEAD AN INFAMOUS Doveton intersection, which has seen more than 10 traffic collisions since 2008, is set to receive more than $100,000 from the State Government for safety upgrades. Earlier this month Assistant Treasurer Gordon Rich-Phillips announced a $105,000 investment to improve the treacherous Heatherton Road and Monash Freeway intersection as part of the government’s Safer Road Infrastructure Program (SRIP).

“Works at the site will include improved lighting, line marking and signage and the installation of a traffic signal mast arm which will allow traffic signal lanterns to be located directly above the traffic lanes, improving visibility for drivers,” Mr Rich-Phillips said. “In the five years to December 2012 there were 11 collisions at this location including three serious injury crashes. “Four of these collisions occurred due to cars turning right from Heatherton Road onto the Monash Freeway, so this

project will help to address this.” The money allocated for the Doveton upgrades forms part of the $17.7 million in SRIP funding announced by the government last week for 26 similarly treacherous sites across the state. Among the locations confirmed for the SRIP funding were Williams Landing, Seaford, Balwyn, Caulfield South, Nunawading, Mount Waverley, Ashburton, Coolaroo and Doveton. Roads Minister Terry Mulder said SRIP funding was used for road improvements as well as repairs to roadsides and

nearby infrastructure to reduce the risk of run-off road crashes at intersections. “Projects are chosen based on an assessment of crash statistics to determine the type of crashes occurring at a particular location and then using that information to develop treatments that will help prevent further incidents,” Mr Mulder said. “Projects are designed to provide extra protection for pedestrians or cyclists or to install measures like signal controlled right turning lanes which can reduce the risk at some intersections.”

It’s designed to a T By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS DRAWING on a Grimm brothers fairytale, Jennifer Thy has conceived an award-winning T-shirt design with an uplifting message. Ms Thy, an Endeavour Hills communication design student, placed among the top 10 of 1500 entrants from around the world for the ‘YoorallaTEE’ competition. The design brief was to “redefine disability”. Ms Thy said her design of an old-world mechanical hand - which wouldn’t look out of place in Leonardo Da Vinci’s copybook - was based on the fairytale ‘The Girl Without Hands’. In the story, the heroine overcomes her disability with the help of artificial limbs.

“It is a story of a girl who, with her persistence, courage and strength, beats her grief and fear and finally triumphs,” she said. Ms Thy - who keeps a keen eye on fashion trends - was excited by the thought of potentially seeing her designs walking down the street. As a soon-to-be graduate, she said the timely win was “really good for my resume”. “It promotes me really well as a designer.” Hers and nine other winning designs from Australian, US and Indonesian entrants will be on sale in Dangerfield stores nationally and online. Proceeds from T-shirt sales go to Yooralla and the Bob Maguire Foudation. To see the designs, go to 99designs.com/yoorallatee

Anti-racism campaign rewarded THE City of Greater Dandenong has won a prestigious award for its commitment to stamping out racism. The council’s ‘Racism. Get Up. Speak Out.’ project was awarded the ‘Multicultural Australia – Strength in Diversity’ award at last week’s National Awards for Local Government. Greater Dandenong Mayor Jim Memeti said council was incredibly proud of the project and delighted with the award. “Racism. Get Up. Speak Out. was motivated by council’s strong commitment to building an inclusive and fair community for all,” Cr Memeti said. “As Victoria’s most multicultural community, we are incredibly proud of our residents who come from 150 different nations, speak over 200 different languages and follow more than 100 different faiths.” Cr Memeti said Racism. Get Up. Speak Out. was a practical, local response to the National Anti-Racism Strategy. “It built greater understanding of different cultures, developed stronger community ties and collectively took a stand against racism through sharing stories that affirm and celebrate positive responses to acts against racism,” Cr Memeti said.

BUSINESS SOUTH-EAST

The breakfast of blows By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS TWO locally-based state politicians – both of whom acknowledged a history of friendly sparring in parliament – were subjected to some well-directed jabs from a business breakfast audience at Sandown last week. Assistant Treasurer Gordon RichPhillips and Shadow Attorney-General Martin Pakula opened up for questions at the Greater Dandenong Chamber of Commerce awards event last Wednesday. The audience didn’t miss its chance. David Willersdorf, director of the Grenda Group, lashed out at the government’s decision to award 30 per cent of bus routes to a foreign consortium Transdev, instead of a bid by Dandenong-based Ventura last year. The decision was expected to also hurt Dandenong bus maker Volgren, despite all bidders making Victorian Industry Participation Plan commitments to use local suppliers. Mr Willersdorf said the VIPP suffered from “not enough teeth”. “Everyone knows an overseas company will get overseas buses.” Another questioner said often tenderers offering the much-cheaper

“China price” – for imported products – were awarded projects. Mr Gordon Rich-Phillips said the government’s procurement policy was the same one that led to Victoria’s trains and trams being made at Bombardier’s Dandenong factory. He said the government needed to look at the “full value for money” of a bid, taking into account the 30 per cent pricing differential between Chinese and locally-made products. “It’s not proper to give a blanket statement (on local content) when the differential is 30 per cent.” Mr Pakula said support for local manufacturers, the reskilling and training opportunities and uplift in payroll tax through more jobs also had to be considered. A Chisholm Institute staff member fired a broadside: how could local manufacturing thrive given the State Government’s funding cuts to the TAFE sector? Mr Rich-Phillips said there had been a substantial funding increase for vocational training - though money had shifted from TAFEs to private providers. He said funds were being moved from courses not needed in the econ-

omy, such as fitness training and “underwater knitting”. Mr Pakula said the ALP would restore TAFE funding. “There’s no way we can have strong local manufacturing secured if we don’t have well-educated, highlyskilled workers.”

Other points of difference were major projects - the ALP favours Bay West rather than the Port of Hastings as Melbourne’s second major port, for example. Mr Pakula conceded the ALP option wasn’t popular among his audience.

ATTAR’s a good fit KEYSBOROUGH tech company Advanced Technology Testing and Research is getting an international name for its innovation but it is also making a healthy investment in its workforce. ATTAR was nominated at a 2014 Premier Regional Business Awards event last week for its successful inventiveness, such as developing a world-first method to test stress levels of heavy train wheels. It has also found a novel way of keeping the stress levels of its 20 employees in check. The business offers $600 after tax to all employees to spend on their own health and well-being. Managing director David Lake said workers couldn’t spend it on their families but had to treat themselves to bikes, massages, yoga, training shoes and anything else good for their health. He said “people are the most important part of the company – we have to look at their health and wellbeing.”

Employees have been invited to buy shares in the company founded in 1986 by Dr Gary Martin – a shrewd move given its 30 per cent growth in the past five years. Mr Lake said its train wheel testing-method had been written off by its testing technology provider – which said it “couldn’t be done”. “We were a little terrified by that.” The method has been successfully used at BHP’s Port Hedland operation and is showing up deficiencies in brand-new $60,000 wheels. Other nominees at the awards event staged by the Greater Dandenong Chamber of Commerce were Norden and the Foster Street Clinic. Dandenong-based Norden is a 50-year business that started as a truck body-builder but made the jump to wheelchair-friendly conversions to vehicles for disability providers. Manager Robert Anson said the company created a side-business in hydraulic connections, born out of

He pledged the ALP would set up an independent body, Infrastructure Victoria, to consider which was the best port site. Mr Rich-Phillips said it was a decision best made by the government, rather than delegated to another body.

Generation of green savings

ATTAR workers Daniel King, Chris Dewar and Darren Cram take a Picture: DONNA OATES fitness break. 122440 frustrations about supplier quality for hoses and fittings. Foster Street Clinic, which provides a 40,000-a-month needle and syringe exchange program, has branched into providing a breakfast club for clients. The club has had health and social benefits – a chance for the clinic’s workers to sit down and chat through a client’s issues, manager Debra Alexander said. David Mann, an automotive

technology student at Chisholm TAFE, was nominated for the youth enterprise award. Mr Mann, 19, is studying and learning his trade as an apprentice heavy duty diesel mechnaic at D&D Diesel, Dandenong South. He plans to ply his skills at the burgeoning mines in Western Australia and Queensland. “I’m happy to give anything a go.”

GREATER Dandenong Council’s new municipal building in Lonsdale Street is now officially connected to Australia’s first urban energy precinct using cogeneration technology. Developed by Places Victoria and CogentEnergy, the purpose-built energy plant heats the five star Green Star civic centre, which Mayor Jim Memeti said was already costing less to operate than the buildings it replaced. “Cogeneration uses natural gas-powered engines to generate electricity and hot water for heating,” Cr Memeti said. “The hot water is exported to other buildings in the area via pipes in the road. “Using gas as a fuel offers a significant reduction in carbon emissions when compared to coal-fired power generation, offering efficiency gains of up to 80 per cent. “Council is very proud to be an environmental leader in practical solutions that are better for the environment and better for ratepayers.”

BUSINESS PROFILE

Ready to handle any health challenge THE Valley Private Hospital, Mulgrave, is open 24/7 and the days are never predictable, according to Nurse Unit Manager Kristy Austin. “As we are open 24/7, our day is never typical,” she explained. “We have to be ready to handle anything from a broken bone to a heart attack. “We never quite know what is coming through our doors at any given time.” Ms Austin said she loved her career despite the demanding aspect of the work. “I knew from the age of 10 I wanted to do this work,” she said. “I joined St John Ambulance at 11 years old as a cadet to learn about first aid, that’s where my

passion for emergency medicine started. “One of the challenges is dealing with the unexpected, which also makes the job so interesting. “We have to deal with so many variables, not just in patient profiles or personalities, but their often complex medical needs. “By far the most rewarding part of this role is when we save a life. “For example, last week a male patient aged 82 was transferred from a nursing home after a fall. It should have been a simple, straightforward case. “However, he suffered a cardiac arrest (his heart stopped) and if not for our experience and ability to act quickly this man

would not be with his family today.” Ms Austin said the private ED had one big advantage over the public system. “Our biggest advantage over the public system (and we acknowledge they do a fantastic job) is the lack of waiting periods,” she said. “We also have rapid access to most specialties and we can admit directly into our wards, which makes patient care of the highest standard.” And does she have advice for anyone who has to visit an emergency department? “You or your family should know what medications you are taking, the details of the GP you see and, of course, your medical history,” Ms Austin said.

“The more details we have around your presentation, the better for us. “Often a lack of information around how and why a patient comes to the ED can slow down our processes and delay treatment. “We are here 24/7 to support our community and although we hope you never need to use our service, we have 30 years’ experience in emergency medicine.” The Valley Private Hospital is in Gladstone Road, Mulgrave, phone 9790 9333. * Editor’s note In last week’s edition of the Journal this advertising story appeared with incorrect address details for The Valley Private Hospital. The error was made by a reporter.

Keep it simple… no Bull EASTERN FOOTBALL LEAGUE - round 10 By JARROD POTTER THEY never gave up. A bleak looking score line greeted Noble Park coach Jon Knight at the final break - a 26-point deficit to East Ringwood. His message to the Bulls? Just have a bit of belief and keep it simple. “I just told them to believe in themselves, the belief has been there at times this year,” Knight said. “Knocking off Balwyn this year you’d think they’d grow a leg - but last week we were ordinary against Rowville and this week I just wanted to play on… give, and if they saw someone to give (the ball to) or go through the middle.”

His words sunk in for the playing group as an incredible last quarter effort from Noble Park stole a threepoint victory off East Ringwood. Minor scores plagued Noble Park in the last term as it could not convert - spraying seven behinds to keep East Ringwood fans hopeful of escaping with a win. The revival began defensively as Bobby Kemperman drove away a number of Kangaroos’ inside-50s. He’d find the waiting hands of Trent Cody, Sammy Monaghan and Craig Anderson who in turn set up Brett Dore, Peter McGettigan and man-ofthe-match Shayne Allan up forward. Allan’s third quarter alone kept No-

There’s no kidding about with his tackles as Noble Park’s Liam Kidd latches onto an East Ringwood opponent. 122580 Pictures: JARROD POTTER ble Park in it - snagging two of his five goals - but his fourth was a masterpiece. His 25th goal of the season was a miraculous wrong-footed snap deep in the pocket of the scoreboard end to bring the Bulls back within two goals. Allan was part of the play for just about every inside-50 in the final term - shepherding a Brett Dore snap to bounce through and hit the post just before the magic moment happened. Glen Manson tapped it down, the kick from the pack found its way to new recruit Mat Jones, from Nhill, who wheeled around and drilled the match winner with a minute remaining

- a very memorable first senior goal at the club - the final score Noble Park 71 taking it away from East Ringwood 68. Knight praised his star ruckman Manson who returned a week ahead of schedule to battle manfully against East Ringwood’s menacing talls with Piva Wright unavailable and Brett Dore left hobbled by a knock to his left knee in the final quarter. “He (Mason) is probably a week away from being cherry ripe, but we had to rush him in because of something happening during the week which wasn’t great,” Knight said. “I asked him if he could give me

10 minutes a quarter and maybe a bit more and he said ‘bloody oath I can’.” With eight rounds left in the EFL season, Noble Park has moved itself back up to eighth with a 4-5-1 record to leave it a game-and-a-half outside of the top five. The Bulls still have a big task ahead to make it back into the finals equation which starts on Saturday against South Croydon. Noble Park is hosting its ‘Shave a Bull Day’ at home on Saturday to support the Leukaemia Foundation and little Bull Zayne Anderson. All funds raised go to the foundation.

KEYSBOROUGH’S renowned fighting spirit is about to be tested to its full capacity after the Burra went down to Doveton by 62 points in their Casey Cardinia league clash at Robinson Oval on Saturday. The ninth-placed Burra were expected to be competitive during the middle part of the season, but three heavy losses, to sides that sit outside the top-five, in ROC, Hampton Park and now Doveton, mean the immediate future looks daunting to say the least. Chris Bryan and his boys will have to dig deep as they

prepare for Cranbourne, Pakenham, Narre Warren and Berwick - the top-four sides on the ladder - over the coming month. The Burra regained skipper Ryan Goodes, who returned from four weeks out through injury, but just weren’t accountable enough in the first term, the usually low-scoring Doves kicking 6.2 to 3.3 for the quarter. The home side extended its 17-point buffer to 23 at half time, and to 35 at the final break, before ramming home its advantage with a 6.3 to 2.0 final term. Mathew Collett and Tim Werner kicked two each for the visitors, while the efforts

of Danny Morland, Geoff Humphreys and Luke Damato kept the Burra in the hunt through the middle stages. In other games, ROC pulled off a major upset with an away victory over Cranbourne, Beaconsfield defeated arch-rival Berwick in a feisty Battle of the Creek, while topside Narre Warren returned to the winning list with a 52-point victory over Pakenham. Meanwhile, Tooradin welcomed in new-coach Lachlan Gillespie with a 114-point trouncing of Hampton Park. Keysborough welcome Cranbourne to Rowley Allen Reserve this Saturday.

A season’s best half from Springvale SOUTHERN FOOTBALL LEAGUE Division 2 - round 9

Division 3

A HELLISH second-half led Springvale Districts to an electrifying 84-point win over SFL Division 2 lightweight Moorabbin. Leading only by 20 points at the main break, Jack McTaggart’s charges rattled off their best half of football for the season as 17 goals flew through the uprights at Springvale Reserve. Gavin Vassallo (7 goals) showed why he’s still one of the best local footballers while Chris Brooks (6) and Ben Dight (3) also cashed in on some lacklustre Moorabbin defending. Tim Bacic and Aidan Jolly carved up the Kangaroos through the centre while Daniel Wilson and Lance Baptist also impressed. The win promoted Springvale

LYNDALE’S nine-point halftime lead in the local SFL derby wasn’t enough to hold off Sandown Cobras, which stormed home to take the win. The best efforts of Trevor Kumetaitis (4 goals) up forward kept the Pumas alive up to threequarter-time before the Cobras struck. A five-goal-six final term to Lyndale’s solitary goal was enough to guide Sandown to an 11-point victory. Jake D’Atri and Jake Chapman were best on for the Cobras while those same honours on the other side went to Adam Read and Taylor Irish. It other games, Dandenong was given an old-fashioned 104-point belting via Mount Waverley. Dan Atkin kicked

Districts to third on the ladder.

two goals for the Redlegs while Shannon Brown and Trent Alexander were best afield.

VAFA Division 2 - round 10 CAKEWALKING all over the Monash Gryphons, St John’s kept in touch with the Division 2’s top brass through an emphatic 70-point win. Finding 10 separate goalkickers - six of which bagged multiples - it was easy to see how St John’s found themselves well ahead of the Gryphons at Thomas Carroll Reserve. Manny Jakwot starred in the win - finding countless touches, marks and hit outs around the ground, while Kane Arnold (3 goals), Aaron Alexander and Glenn Costas all impressed. Sixth placed JOCs face Old Eltham Collegians on Saturday.

Demons downed from outset By JARROD POTTER IT WAS not meant to be for the South-East Juniors Youth Girls, as the Yarra Junior Football League stormed away to claim to back-toback interleague championships. The two rampaging Youth Girls’ sides in this year’s AFL Victoria Metropolitan Junior Championships made their way to Shepley Oval to fight for the top title on Saturday morning, but sadly for the locals, Yarra JFL had enough in the tank to knock them off by 19 points to add

to their 2013 interleague championship victory. A four-goal-to-nil first quarter made the rest of the match an uphill slog for the South East Juniors, but to their credit the girls stuck in the contest and chipped away at the Yarra JFL lead. Led admirably by midfielders Georgia Gourlay, Teagan Sheldon, Logan O’Connell-Webb and Emily Browning, the Demons worked their way back into the clash goal-by-goal. South East Juniors struggled

SFL venues confirmed SOUTHERN Football League’s best will head to Springvale Reserve to vie for the top premiership this season. Springvale Districts Football Club will host the Division-1 finals series at Newcomen Road with matches slated for the weekends of 30-31 September, 6-7 October, 14 October to culminate in the Division 1 and Under-19 grand finals held on Saturday 21 October. SFL chief executive David Cannizzo announced Springvale Reserve, Cheltenham Recreation Reserve (Division 2/Thirds) and Heatherton Recreation Reserve (Division 3) as the successful venues earlier this month on the Sunday Radio Show on

88.3 Southern FM. “The SFL wish to thank and acknowledge all six clubs for the enormous work that went into each of their tender submissions,” Cannizzo said. “The board and administration have been truly impressed with the quality and high level proposals presented this year and it made for a difficult task in choosing the three selected venues.” “On review of the process we strongly believe it has been a transparent, thorough and fair process for all parties involved, however the reality is we need to be encouraging more clubs to host finals and provide our clubs access to this revenue opportunity.”

Cranbourne’s Kayla Ripari impressed in the ruck and pinch-hit at either end of the ground when called upon while Parkmore’s Karina Diaz presented well up forward. Whitehorse Colts midfielder/defender Katherine Smith was named best on ground as Yarra JFL lifted the trophy for the second year in a row.

South East Juniors coach Keith Edwards said the team fought hard and lived up to its ‘one in, all in’ playing style. “The first quarter killed us overall I suppose,” Edwards said, “four goals and that’s it... that’s the margin. “In the second half our endeavour, enthusiasm and intensity were there, the tackling pressure was strong, but unfortunately we weren’t clean enough to do it, but I was rapt for the girls and the way they finished off.”

SPORT SEABL - round 12

Green and solid gold

FOOTBALL FEDERATION VICTORIA - National Premier Leagues

By JARROD POTTER TURNING the tables, Dandenong raided Knox to claim two SEABL wins on Saturday night. The State Basketball Centre turned green-andgold as the Rangers stormed the basketball court to push their teams further up the SEABL East Conference ladders. Dandenong’s men scored an emphatic 94-74 win over the Raiders as a 30-point opening term highlighted the Rangers’ intent. Daequon Montreal’s (31 points, 7 rebounds) only enemy was the clock as he shot the lights out - hitting four-of-six three-pointers as he blazed away to 23 points at half time. Knox’s Delwan Graham (14 points, 11 rebounds) went to Montreal to try and stop the Boise State star, but Montreal was able to fly past him to shoot his 11th straight match scoring 20 or more points. Dandenong coach Darren Perry was able to rotate Montreal, giving his star only 30.55 minutes, and left the next wave of the attack to his other star import - Tony Lewis (21 points, 15 rebounds) - who shredded Knox’s defence. Getting his starters off the court was an added bonus in the 20-point win for Perry and said it’s always in the back of his mind on double-header weekends. “Any two game weekend if you’re able to give them a little bit of a rest towards the end of the first game it always helps the next day,” Perry said. “You don’t see it much, but maybe if tomorrow (Sunday) goes into that third or fourth quarter and its tight, it always helps.” While his imports starred as usual, Perry was impressed with the outside shooting of the group as six Rangers knocked in a three-pointer or more. “Having Lucas (Barker) come back from the US, when Owen (Odigie) gets going, DC (Montreal) - we’ve got guys who can stretch the defence and shoot the three,” Perry said.

Dandenong Rangers centre Tony Lewis has shone this season as he rattled off another double-double on Saturday night. 122577 Picture: JARROD POTTER “We do it at training so I kind of expect them to make some, but it definitely helps and stretches the defence.” In the earlier clash, Dandenong’s women easily bested the Raiders 73-49 on the back of an exceptional shooting effort. The Rangers shot at 41 per cent from the floor as Clare Papavs (21 points) and Amelia Todhunter (15 points, 9 rebounds) led the charge in their usual manner. The work under the ring from Lauren Scherf (12 points, 9 re-

bounds) and Faith Probst (10 points, 7 rebounds) continued unabated by the Raiders’ talls. The win keeps Dandenong first in SEABL’s East Conference with an 11-2 record and a game in hand over Nunawading. Dandenong’s sides clashed with Albury-Wodonga on Sunday - the second day of the double header - as the Journal goes to print. The Rangers’ ladies come away winners 79-55, while the men also won 111-77 making it a weekend of green and solid gold performances.

Star pitcher Jack Wadsworth honoured DANDENONG Baseball Association legend Jack Wadsworth passed away this week. Wadsworth’s playing days as a star pitcher spanned well into his eighties in a career decorated with honours. He played for Victoria from 1949-1951 while playing for his beloved clubs Cheltenham (formerly Prahran prior to a merger) and Malvern.

Wadsworth was awarded the Australian Sports Medal in 2000 for services to baseball. He is a life member at Malvern and Cheltenham and his legacy will live on at Malvern with the club’s ground - Wadsworth Field - named in his honour. He was 89 and is survived by his wife Edna and children John, David and Margaret.

On the rise, Dandenong Thunder’s latest recruit Carl Lamb leaps in the home side’s 1-3 loss to Port Melbourne. 122578 Picture: JARROD POTTER

Lamb to the slaughter By JARROD POTTER NOTHING much eventuated on the scoreboards around Greater Dandenong as all three NPL and NPL1 teams failed to fire. The Thunder could not hold off the faster finishing Port Melbourne Sharks as the home side conceded a 1-3 loss at George Andrews Reserve. It wasn’t the Dandenong Thunder debut that mid-year transfer Carl Lamb, from the Goulburn Valley Suns, would have hoped for as he earned a yellow card in the 26th minute for a late tackle on Port Melbourne goalkeeper Stepjan Gal. On the plus side, Lamb created a definitive target up forward for Dandenong’s stellar midfielders to spot, a rarity this season with first-choice striker Jake Nakic regularly sidelined with injury. The visitors opened with the first goal in the 36th minute as

Andrew Milicevic crossed beautifully to the box, which carried on and hit the top corner of the net. The next half-hour of match time ebbed back and forth before Dandenong’s Jarryd Barnes equalised in the 70th minute to leave the final 20 a true dogfight. The deadlock was broken in the 80th minute as Sharks’ Luka Prelevic’s mistimed shot still did the job before Lambros Honos iced the game in injury time with a chip over Thunder goalkeeper Frazer Siddall. An always tough road trip to Green Gully awaits Dandenong, which would hope to push back up the ladder after slipping to sixth. In other results, Springvale White Eagles were obliterated by Moreland Zebras 1-5 as Ryan Don Paul slotted the only goal for the home side, while Dandenong City was bested 0-2 on Friday night by Richmond SC.
