Pagad on call in Kenwyn TAMMY PETERSEN
P
AGAD wants to establish a branch in Kenwyn due to strong support from locals after they visited three known drug dealers in the area on Wednesday night. Representatives from People Against Gangsterism and Drugs responded to desperate pleas from the affluent community on Tuesday by “visiting” the houses of the trio of alleged merchants, who are all youngsters under the age of 30. Osman Sahib, an executive member of Pagad, says the group responded to the “people’s call for intervention because of the escalation of drug trade in the area”. “We went to three houses but only one of the residents was home. The man, who lives in Block Road, is the biggest dealer in the area, and, after we applied pressure, he admitted it. He even showed us where the drugs were kept. He was given a stern warning and committed to stop what he was doing.” This is not the first time the Block Road property has come under the spotlight. The house was one of the main reasons 1 300 locals took part in an anti-drug march on Friday 25 February. The family, consisting of a man, his sister and her toddler, moved into the property on 1 January and, according to residents, have been “wreaking havoc” ever since. A woman who lives near the house says people are “absolutely sick and tired” of watching children, some even dressed in school clothes, “make transactions” at the gate of the neat-looking house. “They are destroying the lives of
our families and young people from all over the Lansdowne area. What kind of community would we be if we just sat back and turned a blind eye to what they are doing?” She says she and other residents have challenged the man, who is in his 20s, about his “wheelings and dealings before”. “All he does is laugh and say he only sells dagga. Does that make it alright? Besides, we all know that that isn’t the only drug being sold there. He knows exactly how we feel and we will keep on harassing him.” Locals claim that from as early as 05:00 until the early hours of the next morning, the house is like “a McDonalds drive-through”. “It’s busy from morning to night,” a resident with a clear view of the house says. “They drive up in their fancy cars, hoot, he comes out and takes their money, returns to the house and hands over the drugs. Even children knock at his door. You would swear he runs a legitimate business, that’s how open he is about it.” Another resident claimed the police do “absolutely nothing” to apprehend the alleged drug pedlars, as neighbours nodded their heads in agreement. “They knock at the door and if no one answers, they drive away. They are lazy. Where is the passion for upholding the law? Why are they so neverminded about something as serious as this? They search and seize with vigour in areas like Manenberg and Hanover Park. Why can’t our police do the same here?” Police spokesperson Warrant Officer Robert Lakey says the house has been under observation. “However, there has been a lack of information in recent months. We need proper, detailed information. No one has come to the station and shared this information with the
FIERY PERFORMANCES: “Burnt”, a new play by internationally acclaimed, awardwinning playwright Ian Bruce, opened at the New Africa Theatre at 43 Golf Course Road, Sybrand Park on 18 March and runs until 3 April. The play is about a povertybound community forced to survive by competing with each other for meagre resources and opportunities, and where those who are different easily become scapegoats, attracting inhuman and irrational violence. The production is 80 minutes long and has no interval. There is ample parking in front of and around the theatre. Performances are at 20:00 from Monday to Friday and on Saturdays at 15:00 and at 20:00. Ticket prices are R60. Pensioners, students and block bookings of 10 or more cost R45. Scholars pay R20.

station commissioner or the Community Police Forum. However, this house is known to us and our eyes are on Block Road,” he says. The owner of the house, Linda Abrahams, says she threatened to evict the woman and her brother. However, the sister, who is the leaseholder, sometimes claims she is not involved with drug dealing, and at others totally denies that there are any drug-related crimes committed at the house. “I feel for her – she’s a mother.

What your ward councillor earns
EXTRA MURAL: A mural of legendary jazz musicians was unveiled at Artscape last Thursday. The mural pays homage to living and de ceased jazz legends of the Western Cape who prevailed during the hardships of apartheid and con tributed to South Af rica’s democracy. Seen here, from left, are the painter, Garth Erasmus, the provincial MEC for Cultural Affairs, Dr Ivan Meyer, Isabella Ngcukana (mother of Ezra Ngcukana, one of the late jazz legends depicted in the mural) and Mar lene le Roux, Art scape's Director of Audience Develop ment and Education.
Almost R30 000 paid for part-time job TAMMY PETERSEN
A
N average ward councillor in the City of Cape Town earns R29 057 a month but is also allowed to hold down a private job, as the job of councillor is considered a part-time one. There are 105 ward councillors in the city, amounting to a total annual cost of R36 611 820 annually. The mayor’s annual package is R1 000 219 a year. Included in this amount is a cellphone allowance of R35 964 per year and a travel allowance of R241 064 a year. Mayoral Committee members, the Whip and subcouncil chairpersons are paid R741 143 a year (R61 761 a month) and the city’s Speaker as well as Deputy Mayor get R789 355 per year, or R65 779 per month. No provision is made for annual bonuses or 13th cheques. The role of the ward councillor is to chair the local ward committee, be responsible for handling queries and complaints within the ward, and resolve municipal disputes. Councillors also have to attend all subcouncil meetings, which take place 12 times a year. If a councillor is unable to attend, an apology must be
forwarded to the Speaker’s office. However, if a councillor misses three meetings without an apology, he/she will be dismissed. Dirk Smit, the City’s Speaker, explains that the job requirements for councillors revolve around the responsibility for interaction between council and the residents within the ward. “The councillor also has to be active in the various council committees and facilitate ward committees where the community gives feedback on council decisions within their area. “Also, the councillor must correspond with residents once every three months. This can be done either through a public meeting or in writing.” Councillors are allowed to be employed in the private sector, he explains, as the position of ward councillor is a part-time job. However, while Mayoral Committee members are full-time employees, they may apply for permission to have another job. . Complaints against a councillor can be made to Smit in writing and forwarded to dirk.smit4@capetown.gov.za via email, or faxed to (021) 4005864.

Nurse found dead in Rondebosch East flat TAMMY PETERSEN
A NURSE, well-known for her many years of service to the Heideveld community, was found dead in her Rondebosch East flat on Wednesday, apparently two days after complaining of ill health. Joan Cupido, the psychiatric sister at the Heideveld Day Hospital, was found in her flat in Rondebosch Close after her sister had not heard from her for two days. Her sister, Madelein, says she spoke to Joan for the last time on Saturday. “Even prior to my call, she told me that she had a stomach ailment. She had been booked off from work
and had been at home for a couple of days,” the devastated woman says. Madelien says she worried after her calls and SMSes to Joan went unanswered on Sunday and Monday. “I went to her place on Tuesday evening after work. When I got there, the door was open but the security gate was locked. I called but she didn’t answer,” she explains. She then phoned the police because she had a “bad feeling”. Warrant Officer Robert Lakey, spokesperson for Lansdowne police, says officers forced open the security gate and found Joan lying on her back on her bed with her hands
folded across her chest. The bed was scattered with water bottles. “It seems she was trying to stay hydrated and fell asleep,” Lakey says. A post mortem is being conducted to confirm the cause of death and an inquest docket has been opened, he adds. Madelien says she shared a “very close bond” with her 58-year-old sister, who always enjoyed good health. “I’m very sad,” she says. “She was a good person and was loved in the community in which she worked. She helped a lot of people.” The date for her funeral has not yet been confirmed.

Two decades of cycling passion TAMMY PETERSEN
MORE than 30 years ago, a young cycling enthusiast waited with hundreds of other athletes for the starting gun to set off one of the most gruelling cycle tours in the world. That day, young Edrich Williams got his first taste of the Cape Argus Pick n Pay Cycle Tour and, even at the age of 52, he continues to pedal as well as that 21-year-old who finished the over 100 km race in three hours and 13 minutes. Williams took part in his 21st race last Sunday and crossed the finish line in four hours and three minutes. Underneath the suit he wears while working as a senior education specialist for the Education Department is the body of a man who plans to remain active until he collects his pension.
“The weather fit my mood and it was great cycling on such a pleasant day,” he says. “This is the second time in all my years of competing that the conditions were so favourable. It made my milestone so much better.” Williams got his first bicycle after his father fulfilled his promise of buying him one if he made the Western Province athletics team. He was in Grade 11. “I used to pedal around Athlone with my siblings’ wheels but when I finally got my own one I was hooked. I travelled all over Cape Town with that bike – it was my most prized possession.” He says the most romantic thing he ever did was place a pillow on the crossbar for his girlfriend as he pedalled through the streets of Athlone. Next year they will have been married for 30 years. Williams, who has never been part of a cycling club, says his first tour was an exhilarating experience. “After that day in 1979 I was hooked. I would count down the days until I could race up Chappies and across the peninsula with other people who had the
same amount of passion that I do. It’s addictive,” he says. His most special race was in 2004 when his son, aged 18, did his first tour with him. “It was amazing. Both of us did quite well but the results weren’t important. I was proud to see what a brilliant cyclist my boy was and after watching him in action I realised he reminded me so much of myself,” he says. But a close second to his father-son tour was this year’s event. “I am finally a member of Club 21. You get a special medal and a permanent blue number, not to mention a ton of respect from other cyclists. I became a VIP cyclist after 10 cycle tours, but I think that 21 is a much greater achievement,” he boasts. But don’t think this milestone will see him slow down to enjoy his moment of glory. “I can’t wait for next year. I think I have enough energy in me to keep going till I’m 60,” he says with a laugh.

Car ‘burnt to a crisp’ in Crawford TAMMY PETERSEN
AN INVESTIGATION has been launched into a fire which destroyed a car parked in a Crawford streetlast Tuesday. The silver Audi A3 was burnt beyond recognition after the owner parked the car in Haywood Road and left for Worcester with his ex-wife. Warrant Officer Robert Lakey, spokesperson for Lansdowne police, says the incident happened during the early evening. “Once they had arrived at their destination, he received a phone call from his exwife’s landlord informing him that his car was on fire,” he explains. “The Fire Department was unable to stop the blaze from burning the vehicle to a crisp. By the time the owner arrived, the car had already been destroyed.” The police’s forensic, fingerprint and dog units were at the scene. “An investigation is under way to determine whether the fire was caused by an electrical fault or if it was arson. The Dire Department is also investigating the matter,” Lakey confirms. The car’s owner (22), who is from Lotus River, says he believes it was an accident. He added that the vehicle was not insured. Anyone with information on the origin of the fire is asked to phone the station on (021) 700-9000.

New look for Athlone cash office on the cards TAMMY PETERSEN
TIRED of shouting your personal information and financial status to tellers who can barely hear you through the thick glass panels? This may soon be over as the City of Cape Town will be rolling out a new look to its cash offices. At a subcouncil meeting at the Athlone civic centre on Thursday, ward councillors and representatives raised their “absolute concern” about the current system, which sees locals communicating through plate glass. William Swartbooi, a senior professional officer from the City’s revenue department, says the new system will be rolled out at the Cape Town cash office within the next two weeks. The new-look office will boast interview cubicles to promote privacy and has also been made wheelchair-friendly. Swartbooi adds that once it has been budgeted for as structural change, it will be rolled out to the rest of the City’s cash offices. A satisfied Cynthia Clayton, chairperson of the subcouncil, says she is glad that something will be done to address the matter. “If someone comes forward to discuss their arrears or inquire about water cuts, you must have privacy. “I would never want to come to a place where I am asked personal questions and I have to respond so loudly that everyone in the office can hear,” she says. Ward 48 councillor Mustapha Murudker stresses that all people should enjoy privacy when discussing confidential
matters. The tellers also have to have an attitude change. “The manner in which you relay information also affects the experience of the person. This really is a matter of great concern.” Ward 49 councillor Suzette Little says she too is aware of the “attitude problem” of certain employees. “I have sent in complaints in the past about unpleasant staff. What if they should be in that position? How would they feel?” Swartbooi says the matter will be addressed by sending tellers for training to make them “more effective”. Hanover Park resident, Mymoenisa Jawaar, says she is “relieved” that her personal financial matters won’t be heard by strangers any more. “I always dreaded going to the cash office because you have to scream through that glass plate for the teller to hear you. It was very embarrassing. “When this new system is introduced, I will have no problem with reporting my situation any more. “It will be between me and the employee.” Athlone resident Simeon Duminy says he never enjoyed visiting the cash office because he felt like “a naughty child in the principal’s office”. “The staff must learn manners, man. They speak to you like you are rubbish just because you don’t have the money to keep up with payments. “When you go to the office for help, you are treated like a poor gemors. “They must employ people with proper communication skills and who know how to deal with people in a decent way.”

GOOD HEART: More than 100 books were donat ed to the Romance Book Club at Ry lands Library on Thursday. The sponsorship for the books came from the Muslim Judicial Council’s Moulana Igsaan Hendericks, Ebra him Badroedien from Lady B, and Farouk Ismail and Moulana Mag moed Khatiep from the Gatesville Mosque. Commu nity workers used the R500 donation to buy the books. Seen here are (from left) Faldielah Saal, a librarian, Sabrah Samson, Mustapha Jordaan and Gigi Richards – all community workers – and Sophie Mahizie, a librarian. The books came at the perfect time, as Library Week will be held from next Tuesday. Fines for overdue books returned in that week will be overlooked. The library will have a reading competition in June. For more information call (021) 6372220. Photo: Reyana Steyn

‘Senseless’ killing in Surrey Estate REYANA STEYN
P
OLICE are dispelling fears that a murderous syndicate is targeting business owners in Athlone following the killing of a well-known business owner. Other shopkeepers and their workers are terrified that they may be next. Abdullah Daware (62) died at his Surrey Estate business – Dicky’s Meat Market – on Monday 14 March. Four men have been arrested for the murder and are expected to appear in the Athlone Magistrate’s Court today (Tuesday). “The killing happened just before the store closed at 19:55,” says Warrant Officer Llewelyn Lakay, Manenberg police spokesperson. Ganief Daware, Abdullah’s brother, who was inside the store when the murder took place, explains: “It was my brother, a staff member and myself in the store. Three men dressed in blue overalls entered. Two entered the store and one kept watch at the door. “I remember noticing the overalls because they were brand new and I still thought to myself they must be working for a new company. “I was about to cash up at the time. The one walked down the aisle to the staff member and the other was walking to me.” Ganief says the staff member then screamed when one of the men pointed a gun at her. “She screamed ‘Ganief, look here!’ I was about to walk to her and Abdullah, who was about two metres away, also went
to her and then the man who was closest to us shot him point blank. “They took a shot at me and I ducked to the ground and they then ran off. They shot at me again, which missed me. “It happened so fast. I went to get my gun out of the safe and I wanted to chase after them, but they were gone by the time I got outside. I ran and called the police, but I went blank and couldn’t even remember the number.” Lakay says Abdullah was hit four times in his chest, once in his right side and once in his hand. “The men then sped off in a Maroon VW Golf 5.” Ganief says that what happened still seems surreal. “I wasn’t thinking when it happened and it still hasn’t sunk in. It’s as if he went away, but he will be coming back. What was strange is I kept telling him to go home as he broke his wrist and I told him he shouldn’t be at work, but he refused.” Ganief says his late brother was a father figure to him. “He was the one who reared me from a young age and he was loved by everyone.” Abdullah was buried on Tuesday 15 March according to Muslim tradition. Lakay says two suspects were arrested at a house in Tarentaal Road, Athlone. “Police followed information which was given to them and arrested the suspects on Wednesday. On Thursday, another two men from Mitchell’s Plain handed themselves in at the police station in connection with the murder.” The news of his death still has to be told to his 32-year-old son, who is in hospital since he was in a car

accident in Calvinia in January. “The two cousins were in a car accident and one died,” says Ganief. “Abdullah’s son has been in hospital with multiple injuries and to this day he doesn’t even know that his cousin died and now we still have to tell him that his father died too,” says Ganief. Abdullah leaves behind his wife, Khadija, four children and five grandchildren. Surrounding businesses are concerned as they say there has been a spate of robberies and this is the second “senseless” killing of a business owner. People’s Post previously reported that Sedick Venos, the owner of Crescent Crete Precast Walls on Carbon Road, Athlone Industria, was brutally slain for no apparent reason. The 51-year-old’s body was found by a co-worker at his business on Saturday 11 December 2010. He had been viciously bludgeoned and stabbed to death (“Family mourns after murder”, 14 December 2010). Chantal Muller, who works for Dr MS Hayat Surgery, next to Dicky’s Meat Market, says all the workers are terrified of what else could happen. “We are so scared after the murder of Abdullah. It was a pointless killing. We come to work and we’re terrified because we don’t know if a car can pull up and anyone can be targeted. “For the past couple of weeks we have had men come into the surgery and ask if they could use the bathroom, but when we tell them no, they get aggressive and we can see they’re scouting the place. “Abdullah was such a good per-

son, always friendly and cracking jokes. Since he’s been gone the atmosphere has been different.” Abe Parker, the owner of Gas and Motor Centre, also situated in Surrey Estate, says he is becoming immune to the robberies taking place. “There have been many robberies in the shopping complex, but one becomes immune to it, even murders – it’s an every day thing. We have lost hope in the police; we want to believe them, but then we see how cases just get thrown out of court. It is sad about Abdullah. I have known him for more than 30 years. He was a superb, admirable guy. Always friendly and helpful even with small things – a real family figure and very well known. It’s traumatic that he was killed.” Mariam Mtwisha, who works at Primrose Supermarket, says she fears coming to work. “We are so scared because it’s not safe here.
This shop has been robbed numerous times, but no one was hurt. It is scary what happened to Mr Daware.” Lakay says police are on high alert and dismisses claims by business owners that there is a syndicate doing the rounds. “We are investigating the murder and following all leads. No money was taken when the men entered the shop. The motive at this stage is unclear. We understand the business owners' fears, but other robberies have not been reported.” Lakay urges the community to come forward if they have any information regarding the shooting. “All information will be handled confidentially and the residents can remain anonymous.” Anyone with information is urged to call the investigating officer, Sergeant Victor Tyobeka, on 082 559 4713.
Open culinary concepts ANTONELLA DESI

The row of shops in the Surrey Estate shopping complex where shopkeepers and their employees are terrified following the murder of business owner Abdullah Daware.
OPEN-PLAN living is the new buzz word when it comes to home layout. Planning workstations and traffic flow is a very important consideration when it comes to designing an efficient, functional and aesthetically pleasing kitchen. However, probably the most important factor is choosing the correct kitchen layout for your particular space. There are generally six main layout options that will suit most kitchens – they are: The one-wall layout Ideal for small rectangular spaces and for single homeowners or those who don’t cook or entertain too often, the one-wall layout comprises a row of storage cupboards on the ground with a countertop above, and a row of storage cupboards that are installed above the countertop, with the workspace lying between the two rows of cupboards. The two-wall layout Much like its one-wall counterpart, the two-wall layout is best suited to a rectangular-shaped space, although it has to be considerably larger to accommodate the two rows of cupboards. It is common to have over-coun-
ter cupboards lining both walls, however, lighting can sometimes be an issue, and some of this storage might have to be negated to make space for a window or two. The L-shaped layout The L-shaped kitchen can usually accommodate more than one person, as it most commonly leaves a nicely proportioned amount of free space in the centre of the kitchen. Having the benches on adjacent, rather than parallel walls can save a tremendous amount of space. This layout is most commonly built into a corner, so it is essential to consider how to deal with the often awkward-to-reach issue of corner cupboards in order to maximize your culinary space. The U-shaped layout For larger, square-shaped spaces, the U-shape layout allows for maximum storage and workspace. However, since the cupboards and benches line three of the four walls, the floor area is reduced, especially when compared to its Lshaped counterpart. So, unless the space is large enough to cope with the surrounding cupboards and benches, a U-shaped kitchen layout can sometimes feel a little cramped. For spaces that are just slightly
too small for this layout, a clever design trick is to remove the cupboards from one wall and use it as a breakfast bench instead. The island layout Essentially, the island layout only really works for relatively large spaces. By definition, an island is a freestanding work area that can fit into any kitchen layout – it can either be fixed or mobile, and can serve a number of purposes, such as providing additional workspace or storage. If the island is fixed, it can host stovetops, electrical appliances, or even a sink – making for a very practical and centrally located work area. The true open-plan layout This layout consists of a kitchen area with no defining spaces between it and the rest of the living area, most often the living/ dining room, and is best suited to really small living spaces. It usually comprises one wall of below- and above-counter cupboards, with all the appliances, such as the fridge, stove and dishwasher all positioned on the same wall. It is a highly effective layout, but can be problematic, as the kitchen will need to look clean at all times as it is completely in line of sight. – Property24.co.za

MOVING VIOLATION: Disciplinary action has been taken after an alert motorist witnessed a police vehicle being used to transport furni ture last month. Photo: Supplied and passengers. It is understood that the officer was moving and had used the vehicle to move his furniture from the Parkhof police barracks in Kenilworth. The vehicle had been booked out, but the station commissioner had not given the officer the necessary authorisation to use the vehicle. When People’s Post questioned police about the rank of the officer and what the disciplinary steps against him would be, Constable Susan Jantjies, spokesperson for Somerset West police, refused to answer, stating that the “matter is under investigation”. However, she did confirm earlier that disciplinary steps “have been instituted against the responsible member” and that he “has been informed about the necessary disciplinary actions against him”. Colonel Mary-Ann Williams, the station commissioner of Somerset West police, also declined to comment on the details of the investigation. When asked what the disciplinary measures against the officer were, she responded only that a formal disciplinary investigation had been undertaken.

People’s Post previously reported on an alert driver who noticed an official police van driving down the Main Road in Kenilworth carrying a load of furniture on Sunday 20 February at 16:45 (“Police vehicle ‘used for furniture delivery’”, People’s Post, 1 March). The man, who does not want to be named, took photos of the Toyota Hilux bakkie, emblazoned with the police logo and “SCM Somerset West” on the side, which was carrying a fridge, stove and other household appliances. The bakkie, which did not have a canopy, was also transporting two teenagers, an elderly man and two young men on the back. The reader then tailed the vehicle to see whether it was being used for “official police business”. He followed it from Aliwal Road in Kenilworth to a block of flats on the corner of Rouwkoop, Ednam and Kingsbury Park roads in Rondebosch. The man took down the registration number and watched as the plain-clothed driver off-loaded the furniture and carried it inside a side door that leads to the rows of flats. He was unable to see where the furniture was being taken, but noted that the people went inside the block before the man had started off-loading the items. After 30 minutes, they had still not returned. An investigation was launched after People’s Post sent the man’s report and photos to the provincial and Somerset West police. The photos clearly showed the driver

Reach for the mountain LUWANDA MXHOSANA, a second-year Bachelor of Business Administration student at the Tertiary School in Business Administration (TSiBA) in Cape Town, hopes to show other young people from the townships that their dreams are possible despite their background and circumstances. With fellow Khayelitsha-based TSiBA staff member, Loyiso Koyana, who teaches leadership and self-development and is himself a keen hiker and runner, they will demonstrate this by starting their climb on Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania – the highest mountain in Africa. Motivated by TSiBA’s philosophy of “pay it forward”, Mxhosana and Koyana recently launched the “Dare To Dream” initiative and climbing Mount Kilimanjaro became a reality when they left this past Sunday. The enterprising duo will be raising funds on their return to show that making a dream a reality is possible. With the assistance of Old Mutual, they will present motivational talks and films to schools and the public. Through these presentations they will raise funds that will be used to improve education opportunities for township youth.

CHILDREN today are rapidly outstripping their parents in Internet savvy and use. Older generations are increasingly being left behind. Sam Paddock, co-author of the new University of Cape Town Internet Super-User course, believes parents have a responsibility towards their children to learn about the Internet. He says parents cannot help children understand the Internet or protect them from online threats if they haven’t educated themselves. Many web browsers have built-in tools that allow parents to select which websites their children may visit and which ones to automatically block.
programme for young students, their levels of success in education can be improved. They are being supported by the Western Cape Sports and Recreation Department, which is organising and facilitating sponsorships, British Airways, which is sponsoring the tickets and Old Mutual, which is paying the for the backpacks, water bottles and gaiters, head lamps, walking sticks, pay-as-yougo funeral cover and US$500. Mxhosana says: “For many young people who come from the townships, life is negative. Life is dominated by dark images of HIV and AIDS, crime, high unemployment rates and lack of proper educational infrastructure. “As a result of this, dreaming in the townships is considered a luxury and an increasing number of young people engage in antisocial activities that destroy the future of this country. “Without a dream to strive towards, what is the purpose of living?” He believes there is a dire need for young people to become good role models and inspire positive social change and he aims to be the change that he wants to see. If you would like to support this initiative, please contact Loyiso on (021) 532-2750, 073 744 3469 or email Ntombiza@tsiba.org.za. Parents who assist their children with their homework will also find that the Internet is an amazing tool. Web-savvy parents can help steer them towards good materials and sources, helping with the work at hand and exposing the children to subjects that interest them. Even children who consider books boring will happily spend hours online reading about their favourite topics. Paddock says GetSmarter “is making a broad range of technology skills available to the average person that will add value to their lives”. The part-time UCT Internet Super-User short course is presented online throughout South Africa and starts on Monday 11 April.

City ups security at stations THE City of Cape Town will soon be extending the operational hours of security guards at 10 park-and-rides along the Southern Suburbs railway line. The security is meant to coincide with Metrorail’s recently-extended timetable that will see three new evening trains on the line. Robin Carlisle, Western Cape MEC for Transport and Public works, says his department has provided funding for extra security on these trains to ensure that commuters are safe throughout their trips and at train stations. The new trains will depart from Cape Town at 19:30, 20:30 and 21:15 and stop at all stations along the line. The trains will travel to the end of the line at Simon’s Town station and then return to Cape Town.
Security at the park-and-rides at Claremont, Kenilworth, Plumstead, Diep River, Heathfield, Retreat, Lakeside, Fish Hoek, Muizenberg and Simon’s Town stations will be extended until 30 minutes after the last train has left that station. This extended evening service on the southern rail line forms part of a collaborative pilot project between Metrorail Western Cape, the Provincial Ministry of Transport and Public Works and the City of Cape Town to promote public transport. The project will run for six months initially and could be extended if deemed successful. The success of this pilot could see similar services introduced on other lines in the city. Both services will begin on Monday 28 March.

SA belongs to all of us IT is a sad indictment on our beloved country when on Human Rights Day, a speaker at the national celebration is shouted down by those who may not agree with the speaker’s political affiliation. Even before the Acting Premier of the host province could make any remark, people in the audience waving the flag of a particular political party shouted her down. This says so much about where we are as a country. It is clear that we are a deeply divided nation. We have not yet progressed beyond our black-white politics. Sadly we have not yet moved towards becoming a nation united around common principles irrespective of our political or economic perspectives. The behaviour of a huge section of the Athlone Stadium crowd will be to our shame as a nation. What does that say about our respect for human rights? Are we so divided that just because the highest office in a province is not held by one from my party, that I will show disrespect to that office? And the respect given to the deputy minister,
who happens to be white, was in such sharp contrast to the disrespect shown to the Acting Premier of the Western Cape. What was the difference? It was not the colour of the skin so it must have been the intolerance towards those who hold a different political perspective. Our national celebration days should unite us. Yet we have seen over the years how this country failed to use our national days as opportunities to unite the nation. Why are these days turned into party-political rallying events? Should we not unite around the events organised by our government? Why are political parties holding rallies on these days? More should be done by our government to ensure fuller participation by all political parties and leadership in the national events. Our people will see the example. They will follow. There should be no separate party-political rallies on our national days. And while opposition groups would want to complain about the lack of inclusion, they should accept that by organising their own rallies,
they are becoming instruments of division. What was remarkable, though, was the recognition given to Robert Sobukwe and the leadership of his party in the events that are being commemorated in the current human rights celebration. Nation building begins by recognising that our freedom was not brought to us by one party but by a wide range of freedom fighters. That battle was fought on many fronts and it is time South Africa gives due recognition to those stalwarts. Nation building really begins when we start recognising the role played by the first nation, the Khoi people, in the fight against settlers who sought to dehumanise them and take their land. When we move from the fallacy that we are beholden to one party or a particular group only for the freedom we enjoy today, then we would have advanced on the road to building a true united South Africa. Human Rights Day should move us to do more to unite as a nation. PHILIP M. BAM Grassy Park
Your SMSes . Pagad will never have my respect for what they did to Rashaad Staggie all those years ago. Although he was a drug merchant, nobody deserves to die that way. I remember how members of Pagad bombed a residence in my area and a lot of people were traumatised. Pagad has always been a vigilante group and they won’t stop. People are desperate enough to call on them in a crisis. Pagad thinks they are doing the right thing by intimidating people. The only way the merchants would stop selling drugs is if they suddenly get a conscience, and not by pressure. They caused damage to properties in the surrounding area yet the guy selling drugs just kept on doing so. So what was the point of that effort in their bombing campaign? The only way you are going to get drug merchants to stop is for them to serve jail time, and that is in the hands of the police. Damocles . They must really do something to these officers who just want to hit people and push them around ["Man claims police 'torture'", article, People's Post 15 March]. They don’t have the right to do it. . I have just read the article of the maternity facility in Rondebosch East and I am so happy that there is a home like this. I had three babies and all of my experiences were horrific. In the government hospitals it’s just a job and at a time like this you need some special care, not the red carpet but nurses who can bear with you and speak in a sweet and loving voice. Not all of us have medical aid. Luckily my last baby was on medical aid. She was premature – I don’t even want to think of what it would have been like had I gone the government way again. They need to get their act together. I hope the new maternity home won’t lose sight of the purpose
and accept all religions, not only Muslims. Thanks and good luck. . Well thought-out poem, Pierrene Malander ("We deserve a better future", letters, People's Post 15 March). You’re very special. Lovely syntax too. Send it to “Showerhead”. The likes of Zuma probably won’t understand it. LS, Lansdowne . To Metrorail and associates, I am very pleased about your new timetable. Before you start, please clean your filthy trains both inside and out, especially the windows. I can’t see through them during the day, what about at night? Disgusted commuter . I agree with Concerned Young Adult. I have been out of college for a year and I still don’t have a job for the field I studied in. Everyone says I don’t have experience but how will we gain experience if no one hires you without it? . We won’t employ Concerned Young Adult or her friends as we cannot fire her/them if she/they are no good. . I rather buy Jive. It tastes far better than Stoney. I don’t buy Stoney any more. . I have experienced the same taste of Stoney as you have. Jive ginger beer is far better, and cheaper too. Thank you! . Thank you very much for the Mummenschanz tickets. It was an amazing experience.

the first time in eight years will certainly put an extra spring in the team’s step for the rest of the Super Rugby competition. The men from the Cape, who are now the only unbeaten team in the coveted competition, managed to trump the Pretoria men 2313 in a tightly contested, physical encounter last Saturday evening. And to add to the notches on the Stormers’ belt – a try from recently under-performing speedster Bryan Habana. The try was only the team’s second for the season, after the one by flanker Pieter Louw in the team’s opening match of the competition against the Lions. And, despite only scoring the sole try, head coach Allister Coetzee was impressed with his team’s attack. “We created a lot of opportunities and we know that we need to keep improving. The attack displayed against the Bulls is definitely a step in the right direction,” he said. Discipline was another reason for the Stormers’ victory. The Bulls constantly transgressed, giving flyhalf Peter Grant opportunities to add to the Stormers’ tally. The visitors remained the more disciplined of the two sides, only conceding six attempts at goal. Grant managed to slot six of 10 attempts at goal, while the Bulls’ usually accurate Morné Steyn only managed to convert three of six attempts. The set pieces and the breakdown points were dominated by Coetzee’s chargers. “We always knew that we would have a challenge up front and there was certainly a physical intensity,” Coetzee said. “Although a battle, we managed to do well – we scrummed well and stole a couple of line-outs. The victory was a collective effort from the entire team. A lot of hard work went into the preparations for the Bulls match and the players accepted the challenge and stood up on the day.” But on Saturday the Stormers will face a team with a different style and approach to the game. They take on the Western Force from Australia who, despite being relatively inexperienced, always pose a threat on attack. After beating the Lions 27-15 at Coca-Cola Park in Johannesburg on Saturday afternoon, Nathan Sharp and his men will believe that they are able to compete with the Stormers. An interesting battle between flyhalfs Grant and wunderkind James O’Connor is likely to ensue, while the experience of captain Sharpe and fullback Cameron Shepherd will assist their team in the challenge. The battle between blind-side flankers Pieter Louw and Richard Brown should interest rugby lovers as well.

Dutch fasttracking Ajax ace BRIAN GAFFNEY
T
HULANI SERERO is close to leaving Ajax Cape Town FC to pursue a professional soccer career with Ajax Amsterdam FC in the Netherlands. Serero’s move to the world-renowned Dutch club was confirmed by George Comitis, the CEO of Ajax Cape Town FC, over the weekend. “There is little doubt that Serero will soon be joining Ajax Amsterdam. He was invited to a trial so that they can further assesses his ability to withstand the pressure of European soccer,” said Comitis. The good news for Ajax fans is that Serero (21) will not be lost to the Urban Warriors until after the end of the Premier Soccer League (PSL) season. Serero and Sameehg Doutie were on trial at Ajax Amsterdam early last year on the recommendation of Hennie Spi-
jkerman, a former technical director at Ajax Cape Town. Spijkerman is now the assistantcoach for Frank de Boer – the new head coach at Ajax Amsterdam. De Boer last week informed Ajax that he needs to have another look at Serero, who has shown excellent form for the title-chasers in the PSL this season. Ajax Cape Town FC, which is a satellite club of its Dutch namesakes, has since its founding in 1999 regularly concluded successful contracts for its star players with its Dutch namesakes. Serero is set to follow in the footsteps of ex-Ajax aces Benni McCarthy, Daylon Claasen and Steven Pienaar, as well as Cameroon international midfielder Eyong Enoh – a member of the current Ajax squad that is placed third in the Dutch Premier League. The Soweto-born Serero, Pienaar (now Tottenham Hotspur FC) and Claasen (now Lierse FC, Belgium) were included in the 22-player Bafana Bafa-
na squad that will face Egypt in an African Cup of Nations (Afcon) qualifier at Ellis Park, Johannesburg on Saturday 26 March. . Bafana Bafana Squad Goalkeepers: Itumeleng Khune, Wayne Sandlands, Darren Keet. Defenders: Morgan Gould, Sibonisi Gaxa, Bongani Khumalo, Prince Hlele, Anele Ngoncangca, Siyabonga Sangweni and Reuben Cloete. Midfielders: Andile Jali, Thanduyise Khumboni, Renelwe Letsholonyane, Steven Pienaar (captain), Daylon Claasen, Kagiso Dikgacoi, Siphiwe Tshabalala, Sifiso Myeni and Tiou Sengolela. Strikers: Kermit Erasmus, Bernard Parker, Davide Somme, Thulani Serero and Katlego Mphela.
