MALIBU: RESIDENTS FEAR LOSS OF LIFE
Illegal racing can kill BRENDEN RUITER @ruitervaniewind

esidents from Malibu Village are sick and tired of young men using the streets for racing. According to residents there have already been a hit and run incident and someone drove through a wall. Kenny Marcus, who speaks on behalf of the concerned residents, says they are worried that someone will die. “Speeding and burning tyres seemed normal. The fact that nobody ever thought it dangerous and life threatening gave the perpetrators more scope to show off their so called techniques. Since the infill housing project has come to a near completion, most of the houses built on
London Way have been occupied, which creates more pedestrians on this road, not to mention it being a busy road for taxis and buses. This creates a constant flow of scholars and commuters. The corner of London Way and Washington Drive meets with a three way stop street which is totally ignored by motorists. I live on that corner and my kids are aged 5, 7 and 13 years. Since we moved into our new home, we have strived to create a safe environment for our children,” says Marcus. He says his children almost died one day. “We have a patch of lawn on the front section of the house where our children will always be found playing .It was a normal day, children playing, when we heard a loud crash and came rushing out, only to find the driver

trying to drive away after smashing into my newly erected wall and gate. Because his front fender was dragging on the road surface, it was impossible for him to get very far. I rushed out of the house and caught up with the driver. The police was called and a case was logged at Kleinvlei police station. My family is still very traumatised by this incident and horrified by the mere thought that all of our children could have been injured or killed in such a horrific way.” According to Marcus he and other concerned residents have been from pillar to post to get help with the problem. In December 2019 Marcus was contacted by the City of Cape Town’s transport directorate. “Your request for traffic calming is acknowledged. Be advised that all traffic cal-
ming requests received after 28 January would be considered under the revised policy of the same date,” wrote Natasha Davids, communication officer at the directorate. Marcus says after that they didn’t hear anything again until 20 November 2020. “Thank you for communicating with transport information centre, we have forwarded your follow- up email to the relevant person for attention and feedback,” wrote Davids again. “Why is it taking so long to get anything done? Many people will die if nothing is not done soon,” says Marcus. TygerBurger sent a request for comment to the directorate but have not received a reply by the time of going to press. When received comment will be added to follow-up articles.

City ready for Covid resurgence T
he Western Cape health department has confirmed that the Cape metropole is experiencing a resurgence in Covid-19 cases. According to a statement released by the City of Cape Town, based on the experiences of other countries around the world, the confirmation should sound a warning to us all that the growing complacency in recent months needs to be cast aside with urgency. “It is imperative that Cape Town pulls together to ensure that the resurgence in caseload and related hospitalisations are curbed, and quickly too. “The City’s health department remains equipped to assist with Covid-19 screening,

testing and referrals, but also contact tracing in conjunction with other health agencies. “The majority of our 34 overflow facilities, opened earlier this year to increase capacity at clinics in light of the pandemic, remain active, as are the mobile testing booths that were set up at a number of clinics,” the statement reads. As indicated, there is growing community transmission across the metropole, with certain suburbs showing higher active caseloads, based on the available data. These suburbs include Bellville, Claremont, Delft, Dunoon, Grassy Park, Gugulethu, Hanover Park, Kuils River, Lentegeur, Lotus River, Macassar, Milnerton,
Nyanga, Ottery, Parklands, Parow, Pinelands, Rocklands, Rondebosch, Sea Point, Somerset West, Strand, Tafelsig and Wynberg. However, the City says the public should continue adhering to the Covid-19 health and safety protocols that were so diligently observed during the peak of the pandemic earlier this year. “Unlike the peak, when the country was still in a hard lockdown, there is far more mobility under the current alert level, which means the risk of transmission is greater, and not limited to the suburbs that are experiencing a surge in caseload,” the City says. Apart from regular hand washing and sa-
Brave women take stand on crime KAYLYNNE BANTOM @bantomkaylynne Sally Ann Lindy Jacobs sobs uncontrollably as she kneels in front of her painted art piece depicting her raw and painful emotions from the murder of her nephew and son. Next to Jacobs stands Kashiefa Mohammed with a banner of her slain son, Raffiq. “I miss you,” reads the banner. On the far end another banner with words “rest in peace Justin”. The art belongs to a woman who lost both her children to acts of violence. These are some of the raw art images on display at the Imam Harron Hall, Community House in Salt River, showcasing the violent and painful realities of women and children on the Cape Flats. The exhibition formed part of the official launch of the Cape Flats Women Alumni on Monday 23 November at Community House. The alumni was established by the Manenberg safety forum to acknowledge women community activists in different communities. The art pieces were created from household items including children’s clothing, photo’s of murdered children, newspaper articles and trophies, among others. Alumni founder and chair of the safety forum, Roegshanda Pascoe, says women are the backbone of their communities. However, they are often overlooked. She says when lockdown was implemented in March, women took up the cross and decided to feed the hungry and vulnerable in their respective areas. “They did this without the support of government and are still doing it nearly eight months later,” says Pascoe. She describes the alumni as her dream. It has been in the making for two years. “I wanted to create a platform where women are acknowledged for their bravery and selfless acts. These women have endured painful experiences, but they are still there for others, and they never make

She explains that 20 women were selected. “Many of these women do not have tertiary education or could not complete their schooling due to their circumstances. But life has taught them more than a university ever will. They have their doctorate, masters, LLB degree based on the pain and difficulty life threw at them.” Pascoe explains that the women are from Kensington, Hanover Park, Manenberg, Heideveld, Wesbank, Delft, Eerste River, Mitchell’s Plain, Mfuleni, Philippi and Khayelitsha. The exhibition formed part of a week-long string of activities to facilitate healing after dealing with their experiences of loss and suffering. Marian Kortjie is one of the nominees from Kensington. Both her children were murdered. “Living with the pain of losing

both your children is hard. There were times that I wanted to give up, but my love for helping others is what kept me going,” she says. Jacobs, a community worker in Wesbank, explains that her life was never the same after her nephew was killed in 2015 and her son two years later. She says being part of the alumni gives her courage as many of these women have gone through similar heartache. Thildapumza Zackyoppe from Mfuleni says: “As women we are faced with so much adversity in our communities. We need the support from government.” Rukshana Parker, analyst at Global Initiative against Transnational Organised Crime, an international civil society organisation that aims to fight transnational organised crime, thanked the nominees. She says funding would be made available in support of the alumni. On Saturday 28 November, during a gala event, the 20 nominees were honoured with certificates and trophies.

Sangeres se sangloopbaan dalk in gedrang ná groeisels
Pa van Belhar kry hoofrol BRENDEN RUITER @ruitervaniewind
’n
Man van Belhar droom groot nadat hy die hoofrol in ’n splinternuwe fliek, Bloed Betaal, losgeslaan het. Chris Oortman sê hy het sedert 2019 gesukkel om werk te kry en het by baie toe deure aangeklop. “Ek het gesukkel om kos op die tafel te sit en om my kinders in die skool te hou. Ek woon in Belhar en het besluit om sonder betaling my tyd op te offer in my gemeenskap. Ek het veral met jongmense gewerk en hulle lewensvaardighede geleer. Dit was baie moeilik, maar ek het geglo, hoewel dit nie met my finansieel goed gegaan het nie, ek kan ’n bydrae in ander se lewens maak,” sê Ortman. Op ’n dag het hy oor die radio gehoor iemand soek werklose mense om aan ’n fliekprojek te werk. “Ek het toe ’n oudisie gaan aflê en was aangenaam verras toe ek hoor ek het die hoofrol losgeslaan. Dit voel nog steeds soos ’n droom. Ek wil dit gebruik om ander jongmense te bemoedig dat daar altyd hoop is, maak nie saak wat in jou lewe gebeur nie. Ek is ’n professionele danser en hou bietjie van drama. Iets in my het gesê ek moet dit doen en vandag is ek nie spyt nie,” sê hy. In die fliek vertolk hy die rol van ’n pa wie se dogter deur bendes raakgeskiet word en dan gaan soek hy vergelding. “Ek geniet dit nogal en voel ek sal dit ’n nuwe loopbaan kan maak. Ek wil nou vir nog oudisies gaan. Hier in Belhar is baie dinge verkeerd en ek hoop om men-

se te inspireer om hul lewens te verbeter en groter te droom as om net by bendes aan te sluit. “Daar soveel potensiaal in Belhar,” sê hy. Die fliek word op 4 Desember by die GrandWest-casino bekend gestel.
Die wenner van TygerBurger se Karaoke soos ’n Ster-kompetisie, Feodossia Charles, se sangloopbaan kan dalk op ’n einde wees nadat dokters groeisels aan haar stembande ontdek het. Charles, van Blue Downs, het honderde ander hoopvolles uitgestof toe sy verlede jaar as wenner gekroon is. Kort ná haar sege het sy ’n enkelsnit, “Gone”, die lig laat sien en dit het baie goed gevaar. Dit het haar groot laat droom. Hierdie drome het verlede week ’n ernstige knou gekry. “My stem is die laaste ruk gedurig hees,
maar dit gebeur gewoonlik wanneer ek moeg is. Later het ek begin besef ek moet baie energie gebruik om te praat en dit het my uitgeput. Dit het al erger geword en ek het besluit om ’n dokter te gaan spreek,” sê Charles. “Die dokter het my ondersoek en bevind daar is groeisels aan my stembande. Hy vermoed ook dat daar verlamming in my stembande is. “Dit was vir my ’n groot skok en ek moet dit nog verwerk,” sê sy. Sy word op 22 Desember geopereer in die hoop dat die groeisels verwyder kan word. “In hierdie stadium bid ek vir ’n oplossing en rus ook baie. Ek weet die dokters gaan hul bes probeer om my te help,” sê Charles hoopvol.

‘Brave Heroes’ gedenk ESMÉ ERASMUS
’n
Bewusmakingsprojek om die helde van die Covid-19-pandemie in gemeenskappe bekend te stel en te eer, is Maandag begin. Die veldtog deur Project Brave Heart, ’n nie-winsgewende program by skole wat hom beywer om boeliegedrag te stop, gaan sowat ses maande duur, waartydens mense helde in hul gemeenskappe kan nomineer. Die top-10 “Brave Heroes” word op 7 Mei aangekondig, waarna die algehele wenners op 31 Mei bekend gemaak sal word. Nasionale Brave Heart-dag word ook op 7 Mei gevier. “Ons almal is deur ’n baie moeilike jaar en dit is nou die tyd om dankie te sê. Die idee het daaruit ontstaan dat mense die boelieprobleem met negatiwiteit getakel het, maar ons wil dit op ’n positiewe manier benader deur helde te vereer, sê Maiveen Boehme. Sy het die program in 2018 begin nadat sy self as kind op skool geboelie is en jare later ook haar dogters. Sy meen die fokus is verkeerdelik op boelies en die negatiwiteit van boeliegedrag. “Deur dankie te sê en na mekaar te kyk, keer jy dat mense mekaar boelie en mense stel dus ’n voorbeeld vir mekaar,” sê Boehme. “Nie-winsgewende maatskappye soos ons is seker nou die laaste maatskappye waaroor mense bekommerd is, tog dra ons die land in baie opsigte. Met die veldtog verander ons mense se denkwyses en sê dankie vir mekaar, en kry daardeur geld vir ons projekte. Dus is dit ’n wen-wen situasie vir almal. Hoe meer helde ons kan aanwys, hoe meer vennote kan ons help,” sê sy. Besoek #BRAVEHeroes South Africa op
Facebook vir stories van mense wat helde vir ander tydens 2020 was. Mense kan ’n “Brave Heroe” nomineer deur “BRAVEHERO” na 42210 te stuur. Inskrywings kos R30 elk en word outomaties van jou selfoon verhaal. Dis ’n eenmalige donasie. “Ons wil graag maatskappye aanmoedig om hul personeel in te skryf, aangesien personeel soms onder moeilike omstandighede moes werk,” sê sy. Maatskappye kan meer as een hart aanlyn op www.projecbraveheart.co.za koop. “Ons gaan nie kyk na hoe groot ’n daad was nie, want soms is dit die klein dingetjies in die lewe wat saak maak. Iemand kon dus vir jou data gekoop het, kos gekoop het, emosioneel bygestaan het of tyd met jou spandeer het. “Wat wel belangrik is, ons wil weet hoe dit daardie persoon wat hulp nodig gehad het laat voel het,” sê sy. “Ons glo dit gaan ’n geweldige impak op ons land en sy mense maak. Dit is ’n baie positiewe boodskap van heldedade en wat ons eintlik vir mekaar beteken – dat ons wel kan saamstaan as ’n nasie in moeilike tye,” sê Boehme. Dit is terselfdertyd ook ’n fondsinsamelingsprojek vir Project Brave Heart se teenboelieprojek by skole. “Ons moet probeer om die agterstand van die afgelope boekjaar in te haal om sodoende by meer en meer skole uit te kom om boeliegedrag heeltemal hok te slaan,” sê sy. Sy beoog ook om die program virtueel op te neem. “Ons was net goed op dreef toe Covid-19 ons land en sy mense getref het. Al ons programme by skole is gestaak; dit was ons hoofinkomste,” sê sy. V Kontak Maiveen Boehme by 082 460 8694 of maiveen@projectbraveheart.co.za vir inligting.

Melanie Davids from the foundation says they are very happy that To Fightback South Africa helped them with the workshop. “We thought about how we could make a tangible difference in people’s lives and we came to the conclusion that we need to empower our women to say enough is enough,” says Davids. She
gave thanks to all the people that made the event possible. “We also give thanks to Latifah Jacobs for connecting us with Pastor Pakamisa Keswa who helped us with the venue and donations. We also had a very special guest, Yummy Shihaam Fisher, who came to meet and greet some of the ladies. She is such an inspiration to all of us. And we pray that the Lord our God continue to bless her long life journey,” says Davids. According to Davids all the people present had fun and learned a lot about taking care of themselves.

Illegal alcohol ‘cause of violent crimes’ BRENDEN RUITER @ruitervaniewind
T
he Mfuleni police is worried about the rising number of violent crimes in the policing precinct and says alcohol abuse could be the problem. According to WO November Filander, police spokesperson, crimes like assault, murder, robberies, hijackings, rape, sexual abuse, child abuse and domestic violence-related incidents are serious crimes that are heavily influenced by alcohol abuse in the Mfuleni policing area. “Alcohol abuse incidents are not just restricted to the street, but in-house also. This is destroying heathy family structures. When some perpetrators are intoxicated, they lack fear of the law and the consequences of their vicious behavi-

our. Some people even lack concern for their children’s wellbeing and the negative impact thereof,” says Filander. In light of the 16 Days of Activism for no Violence against Women and Children the Mfuleni station commander Brig Fana Dlamini and his station management embarked on a massive crime prevention operation to crack down on the illegal sale of alcohol in the precinct. “Last week officers from the Crime Prevention Unit arrested a 42-year-old male from Bosasa temporal housing project in Mfuleni, for selling liquor without a license, after he could not produce the necessary legal documents. The police confiscated a considerable quantity of alcohol with an unknown street value. On the same day three other people (two males aged 39 and 49 and a 50-year-old female) were also arrested in three separate incidents in the Mfuleni area for selling illegal alcohol,” says Filander. Dlamani says a zero-tolerance approach will be followed against the illegal selling of alcohol and the abuse thereof in public. “We also need to remind the public that the Covid19 plague is still amongst us and that people should take the necessary steps to protect themselves and their families. Please don’t go to crowded shebeens. We know it is the festive season, but if we are not carefull it could be our last season,” says Dlamini.
DANKIE VIR DIE ONDERSTEUNING VAN DIE STAD SE ELEKTRISITEITSDIENSTE-SPANNE Dankie aan ons klante vir hul geduld terwyl ons die diensaanbod tydens die COVID-19inperking moes beperk. Sedert Junie het ons aandag gegee aan meer as 150 000 diensversoeke. Selfs gedurende die spitstyd van die COVID-19-inperking het ons daarin geslaag om meer as 90 000 versoeke op te los. Weens die COVID-19-veiligheidsmaatreëls kon ons nie aan sekere versoeke aandag gee nie, soos individuele straatligonderbrekings. Ons het sedertdien ’n volledige diensaanbod hervat. Daar is groot hoeveelhede COVID-19-agterstandversoeke, spesifiek oor die herstel van straatligte. Ons is besig om hierdie so vinnig as moontlik te hanteer. Diensversoeke en afhandelingstye kan ook beïnvloed word deur enige skielike COVID-19verwante sluiting van depots. Weereens baie dankie en wees asseblief veilig. Die Stad se dienskanale: (gebruik asseblief slegs een kanaal en moenie dieselfde versoek meermale aanmeld nie): • • • •

Street children fall through the cracks DESIRÉE RORKE @dezzierorke
W
ith impossibly high caseloads and a shortage of social workers, the holistic well-being and development of street children are being hindered. Thus, hundreds of vulnerable children fall through the cracks, never getting the help they so desperately need. To this end the Western Cape Street Children’s Forum (WCSCF) in collaboration with the Western Cape Child Protection Collaborative (CPC) – in response to the Draft Amendment Bill of the Children’s Act – put forward a submission to parliament last week to have discussions about critical systemic issues. The Collaborative requested to
appear before the parliamentary committee in person. It was formed in 2017 is made up of several entities, which has a wide network in the northern suburbs of Cape Town. “It is a civil society child protection movement made up of practitioners and professionals with the aim to lobby government agencies for efficacy in child protection,” explains Janice King, director of WCSCF. “We want more clarity on the term, ‘wellbeing and development’, used in the Bill. We feel it should read holistic development, otherwise it could be interpreted as just one aspect of development,” she says. “And, with reference to funding of facilities, do we have transparency on how funds are prioritised and allocated? If so, where do we access this, how and when? When do
these discussions and processes take place? And how can the community or those working in the sector be consulted? “Also, municipal processes pertaining to early childhood development centres are not clear enough. There are many unregistered, unmonitored community-based organisations that provide care and protection services to children. They often do not know that they must apply for registration or even that norms and standards exist. When these organisations are brought to the attention of the provincial social development department, they only want to register the organisations if they are able to fund them. This means that many organisations remain unregistered and unmonitored.” Moreover, there are an inadequate num-
ber of funded posts for social workers in the childcare and protection system, hence the backlog and caseloads. “The Children’s Act says that a designated social worker should have a maximum of 60 clients, but most that we come across in the city have 200-300 cases, not taking siblings into account. With excessively high caseloads, social workers are expected to do a job that is actually impossible and therefore terribly unpleasant. “It results in a high turnover of social workers as they are themselves abused by ‘the system’, and vulnerable children not receiving the service they desperately need.” The closing date for public comments was Friday 29 November, after which parliamentary processes begin.
Garden established to support these health workers A Staff Wellness and Support (Swells) Committee has recently been established at Tygerberg Hospital with the objective to facilitate enhancement of the hospital’s internal and external physical environment – especially during the peak of the Covid-19 pandemic. The committee’s founding members are dr Roshni Mistry (chairperson), dr Granville Marinus (treasurer), prof Rafique Moosa, dr Suretha Kannenberg (secretary) and professional nurse, Nora Windvogel. A wellness park was established recently at the hospital thanks to the committee and with the help of Cape Nature.
“The vision of the wellness park at Tygerberg Hospital is to benefit staff and patients – a vision which was shared with Cape Nature in 2018. “The project was given momentum with the Swells committee, when planning meetings began in August 2020,” says Laticia Pienaar, Tygerberg Hospital spokesperson. On Friday 20 November, the garden area that Cape Nature assisted Tygerberg Hospital with, was officially handed over. “This unique partnership with Cape Nature is something to celebrate, especially during the most challenging health pandemic our country is facing,” Pienaar says.
The Swells committee are from left professional nurse Nora Windvogel, prof Rafique Moosa and dr Roshni Mistry with Cape Nature chief executive, dr Razeena Omar, and committee members dr Suretha Kannenberg and dr Granville Marinus.

LEWENSKIEKIE
‘Aaptwak’ nou wettig, maar ... Papegaaislaai, aaptwak, ganja, weed, noem dit wat jy wil, maar dis mos nou, party sal sê uiteindelik, wettig in SuidAfrika. Só wettig dat die een daggaklub ná die ander nou in die land geopen word. Want daar is blykbaar skuiwergate in die wet wat dit moontlik maak. Solank jy nie daarmee handel dryf nie, blyk dit, is almal gelukkig. Ek lees in die koerant dit werk só: Jy sluit by die klub aan en hulle kweek vir jou ’n plantjie op hul privaat perseel. Wanneer jy die behoefte voel, kan jy van jou eie plant op die perseel gaan nuttig. Hulle kan seker lekker muffins ook daarvan maak. Maar jy kan dit rook ook, of gemeng met alkoholvrye bier geniet. Ek hoor selfs gerespekteerde lede van die gereg, soos polisiebeamptes, het al by die klub aangesluit. Hulle kan, want ingevolge die wet word niks onwettigs gedoen nie. Die klub sê: “we consume cannabis for the same reasons people wear glasses – to improve your view of the world”. Helaas en uiteindelik, sal party mense ook sê, want die groen slaai is al lankal wettig in ander lande. Vat nou maar Nederland, waar mense lankal in Amsterdamse restaurante so ’n ou twakkie saam met hul koffie kan bestel. In San Francisco, Amerika, is ’n daggastoppie net ’n oproep ver. Dis ’n kwessie van bel en bestel, en dit word afgelewer. Presies vyftig jaar gelede het in skrille kontras hiermee die volgende beriggie in die koerant verskyn: “Nog ’n daggaplant het in ’n Paarlse tuin kop uitgesteek. Onderwyl werkers in die tuin gewerk het, het hulle op die verdagte plant, wat sowat 18 duim hoog was, afgekom. Hulle het die eienaar daarvan verwittig, wat dit uitgetrek en die polisie ontbied het. ’n Speurder het dit uitgeken as dagga en dit weggeneem. Daar word vermoed dat die saadjie in die tuin gewaai is.” Wel, wel, wel, hoe het dinge nie verander nie! Van die polisie wat jag maak op al wat daggaplant is, tot klubs waar selfs húlle so nou en dan uitslaan vir ’n rookdingetjie. Moet net nie die twakkies koop of verkoop nie, want dit bly onwettig. Intussen het die Daggaparty van Suid-Afrika ook tot stand gekom. Op sy webwerf word 14 redes verstrek waarom dagga goed is vir die mens. Dit bevat Omega 3, 6 en 9 in presies die regte verhouding vir hart- en geestesgesondheid. Die aktiewe bestanddeel THC is ook goeie medisyne teen onder meer pyn, naarheid, asma, depressie en alkoholisme. Boonop beveg dit kankerselle, word op die webwerf gesê. Destyds, toe ons op skool was, sou mense omtrent ’n oorval kry as hulle gehoor het so en so gebruik dagga. Die kruid is hand en tand beveg en dit was omtrent die skande van alle skandes as iemand papegaaislaai gebruik. Maar helaas, mense wat die plantjies tuis kweek moet ook maar ligloop vir die gereg, want as daar te veel is, kan maklik vermoed word dat iemand dit kweek vir verkoop. Nie te lank gelede nie is so vyf plantjies deur die polisie afgevat en is in die media groot gewag gemaak van die “daggaplantasie” wat hulle ontdek het. En dit alles beteken net een ding: Never say never. Wat vandag onwettig is, is dalk môre wettig. – Werner van Tonder
“Die kruid is hand en tand beveg en dit was omtrent die skande van alle skandes as iemand papegaaislaai gebruik.”
Respect for lost lives: Flags across the country flew at half mast as a tribute to lives lost as a result of Covid-19 and victims of genderbased violence in line with President Cyril Ramaphosa’s directive that the country observe a few days of mourning between Thursday 26 and Sunday 29 November. “Many South Africans have experienced the terrible loss of a loved one to one of these two pandemics and we send our condolences to all of those grieving at this time,” says Alan Winde, Western Cape premier.

Die lewe druk soms terug My kantoorfoon lui. “Kan jy gou na my kantoor toe kom?” vra die menslike hulpbronbestuurder. Haar sagte stem klink onseker. Dis vreemd. Gewoonlik kom sy na my as my departement enige aangeleenthede het wat my aandag vereis. Ek het amper altyd nie tyd om na enigeen te gaan nie. My departement vereis baie aandag en baie tyd. Dit is seker ’n topbestuur implementasie wat ’n groter kantoor as myne vereis waar meer mense moet sit dink ek. “Dis reg. Ek maak gou die e-pos waarmee ek besig is klaar, dan stap ek na jou”. Ek gaan my spelling en leestekens na en druk die stuurknoppie. Die helder blou lug en sonskyn is opvallend vandag, dink ek, terwyl ek na haar kantoor stap. Ek klop, word gesê om in te kom en maak so … “Hello jy,” hoor ek haar sê. “Dankie vir gister se eetgoed met jou verjaardag”. Haar oë lyk onseker, dink ek. Sy sien ek sien die omgedraaide pakkie A4-papiere op die tafel. Dit laat haar ongemaklik lyk. “Voor ek begin, wil ek hê jy moet weet ek stem nie hiermee saam nie ... maar ons moet poste sny. Covid het ons erg geknou. Jy is een van die ongelukkiges. Jy moet einde van die week gaan. Ek is so jammer.” Die res van die formaliteite is ’n gesuis in my ore … en ek hoor nie veel nie. Gelukkig ken ek dit, maar vandag is ek aan die ontvangkant. Oppad terug na my kantoor skyn die son nog net so helder, maar die wind het opgesteek. HARDWERKENDE GESINSMAN E-pos
Too easy to step on a racial toe I have no connection at all with the Brackenfell High School, any of its pupils or their parents, neither do I write on their behalf. That having been said, I do consider a reply to EV Rapiti’s letter (“Brackenfell violence, an issue for serious deliberation”)in TygerBurger of 25 November is necessary. The Constitution guarantees the right to protest, but, this right is to be exercised in a peaceful manner. Unfortunately that proviso appears to be forgotten by all the “protesters” and, as was the case when they “protested” at the Clicks shops, the EFF came to Brackenfell not to protest but to riot. The reason for their “protest” was a case of perceived racism, based on an unproved allegation, which was subsequently denied, which denial stands unchallenged and was accepted by the local MEC for education. Your correspondent, Rapiti, appears to agree with the EFF that the private party was a “racial gathering” because it was attended by white pupils only. The parents are criticised, as well as the teachers who attended and the MEC is suspected of possibly “pandering to the salivating appetite of her racist followers”. The Constitution also guarantees freedom of association. This means that I may invite to my private party whomever I wish. That is my right. The number of guests is irrelevant and when somebody is not invited he, she or it, has no cause for complaint. The fact that those not invited were classmates with the invited pupils, or were in the same rugby or hockey teams gives them no right to an invitation. When a host invites some people and chooses not to
invite others, there is no duty to provide reasons to the uninvited for their being not on the list of guests. Whether the parents did invite some pupils of colour to the party or not is equally irrelevant, except that, if they did, it proves that the party was not exclusively for white pupils only. If the person invited chooses not to come, for whatever reason, that cannot reflect negatively on the one extending the invitation. There could be many reasons, other than racial preference, why the party was attended by white pupils only or why only those white pupils were invited. It is irresponsible to jump to conclusions and shout “racist” on the mere fact that only white pupils attended a private party. I fear that on those grounds I, too, would be accused of racism because I did not, and never have, invited a single person of colour to my birthday party. I have also never accused the people of colour whom I have met and worked with, of being racist for failing to invite me to their weddings or birthday gatherings. Unfortunately race has become such a touchy subject that one can hardly move without stepping on a racial toe. Perhaps it is time that the hysteria stops and all people simply carry on with their lives and earn a living, which is hard enough in this time of Covid. WILLEM DE HAAN Welgemoed
Fisantekraal not neglected As local ward councillor of Fisantekraal, I would like to respond to certain claims by Mr Timothy Wildschut in last week’s TygerBurger (“Fisantekraal neglected”, 25 November).
He is absolutely right in stating that residents have a right to services such as streetlights, and water and sanitation. What he fails to state, is that residents do not have the right to break down infrastructure as soon as it is fixed. There is not an area in the whole of Durbanville that receives more attention, capital and operational city budget, than Fisantekraal. We have a responsibility to ratepayers to spend their money well. If you spend massive amounts of money on the same things over and over again, it is considered fruitless and wasteful expenditure, not maintenance. I know Mr Wildschut only wants the best for Fisantekraal, but one must be conscious about your message in achieving this. The focus should be on behavioural changes within the community, not falsely letting the community believe they are being treated unfairly. If you are serious in bringing about change, statements should be based on facts and root causes addressed. RUAN BENEKE Ward councillor: Ward 105
Munisipaliteit in D’ville is vyfster Ek het op 27 November my motorlisensie by die Durbanville-munisipaliteit hernu en was baie beïndruk met die higiëniese hantering van publiek by dié kantore. Na die bediening van elke kliënt word toonbanke skoongemaak en die toegang tot die toonbanke word streng beheer. Baie dankie aan álmal wat ook pensionarisse met soveel empatie behandel. H.

Give yourself a gift this December F
or most of us, 2020 cannot end soon enough. Before we bid farewell to one of the most challenging years in history, some of us have important financial decisions to make, like what to do with that much-anticipated bonus, or little nest-egg we’ve scraped together. While the impulse to treat yourself may be strong, Rawson Property Group’s finance and home experts say a little restraint and planning can create much longer lasting results. Here are their top ways to get enduring bang for your end-of-year buck, and turn any extra money into a gift that keeps on giving.
Give your bond a bonus “It does not seem very exciting on the surface, but when it comes to getting huge value for your money, there is nothing better than investing it into your bond,” says Leonard Kondowe, national admin hub manager for Rawson Finance. “Just a few hundred Rands extra can knock thousands off the interest you pay on your home loan, and bring financial freedom tangibly closer.” While the results of depositing extra money into your bond can be dramatic, Kondowe advises homeowners not to expect immediately visible results. “You are not going to suddenly see your

to move on,” Cape Town regional sales manager for the Rawson Property Group Craig Mott says. “You do not have to spend a huge amount either. There are plenty of cost-effective upgrades that will add value to most homes.” According to Mott, eco-friendly upgrades are popular and effective choices. These include simple fixes like switching your lights to LEDs and replacing tap washers with water-saving versions, to more significant upgrades like adding a few rainwater tanks or installing a grey water system. “Those with more outdated properties would do well to put any extra money towards kitchen and bathroom upgrades, or renovations to turn outdated floor plans into more modern, open-plan spaces,” he explains. Outdoor entertainment areas are also popular, and can deliver a great return on investment, as can security upgrades like CCTV and motion-activated lighting.” Invest in your future What about those of us not yet lucky enough to own a home? “Now is an outstanding time to get into the property market,” says Kondowe. “Saving up for a deposit would definitely be an excellent use of any extra money you have lying around at the end of the year.”

Durbanville gaan weer stem dik maak in klubkrieket SAREL BURGER Wanneer klubkrieket vroeg in Januarie weer op dreef kom, sal Durbanville weer een van die spanne wees om goed stem dik te maak. In ’n vriendskaplike wedstryd die afgelope Saterdag teen die sterk span van Rondebosch, het die Durbies (144/4) met ses paaltjies geseëvier. Met Bradley Petersen (3/25) en Tashwin Lukas (2/11) aan die voorpunt van Durbanville se boulaanval is Rondebosch vroegdag tot slegs 1 543 lopies beperk, waarna Jean Strydom (57*) en Bradley Barnes (51) met onder meer ’n derdepaaltjie-vennootskap van 66 lopies die knoop deurgehak het. Daar is terloops nog geen uitsluitsel oor
wie van Durbanville en Rondebosch die WP se Premierliga-klubkampioen vir die vorige seisoen was nie. Die Durbies het ’n kortkop voor die Kaapse span op die punteleer geëindig, maar Rondebosch het beswaar gemaak oor die oorwinning wat Durbanville in ’n ander wedstryd behaal het omdat die Tygerbergers van ’n ongeregistreerde speler in daardie wedstryd gebruik sou gemaak het. Die aangeleentheid is in Maart, na afloop van die vorige krieketseisoen, na die bestuur van Krieket Suid-Afrika verwys, maar as gevolg van die chaos vanjaar by die KSA-hoofkantoor het die tugkomitee van KSA hom nog nie verwerdig om oor die WP-kwessie te besin en ’n oplossing te vind nie.

Sintetiese rugbyveld by Curro ingewy Wanneer skolerugbyspanne voortaan by die Curro-skool in Durbanville gaan besoek aflê, sal hulle in die Kaapse winterweer nie meer met modderbaddens en triestige toestande te doen kry nie. Die eerste volgrootte sintetiese rugbyveld in Suid-Afrika is verlede Dinsdag by dié skool ingewy. Op Stellenbosch is daar wel ook ’n soortgelyke kunsmatige rugbyveld, maar dit is net ’n kwart van die voorgeskrewe grootte. Daarby voldoen Curro se Britse-
ontwerpte “turftech”-veld, wat ’n hele paar miljoen rand gekos het, aan wêreldstandaarde. ’n Uitstekende spreiligstelsel sal binne afsienbare tyd ook aangebring word om wedstryde in die aand moontlik te maak. Mettertyd sal ’n spesiaal ontwerpte krieketmat in die middel van die rugbyveld aangebring word, wat dit geskik sal maak vir wedstryde waarin laerskoolspanne deelneem. – Sarel Burger
