‘ANDERSTE’ SKOONHEIDSWEDSTRYD: ELKE DEELNEMER IS ‘SUPERSPESIAAL’

Hier is almal wenners AVRIL FILLIES

P

rojek Bietjie Liefde het onlangs ’n skoonheidswedstryd met ’n verskil, The Be You (tiful), in die skoolsaal van die Hoërskool Westcliff in Bellville gehou.

Altesame 14 finaliste het op Saterdag 13 Julie hul passies op die “loopplank” (verhoog) gewys en almal is as wenners gekroon.

“Die skoonheidswedstryd is alombekend as die Special Needs Pageant en die deelne-

mers het gewissel van kinders wat doof, outisties, fisiek- en leergestremd is en ook Down-sindroom het. Ons kies nie een wenner nie, maar elkeen kry ’n spesiale toekenning en ’n geskenk,” het Patricia Smit, organiseerder en ma van Micia Smit, Mej. Junior Tiener 2019, gesê.

“Dit sal onmoontlik wees om een wenner te kies, want elkeen het iets superspesiaal om met die gehoor te deel en was dus ’n wenner in eie reg. Die meisies het elkeen ’n

kroon en serp gekry en die seuns ’n trofee.

Tydens die kompetisie het die seremoniemeester ’n kort beskrywing van elke deelnemer gegee en ander het hulself voorgestel.

“Die hoogtepunt was die danspassies wat sommige van die deelnemers uitgevoer het en dit is luidrugtig deur die gehoor toegejuig. Ons wou met hul optredes op die verhoog die publiek bewus maak van wat hulle kan doen en dat hulle verby hul gestremdhede moes kyk,” het Smit gesê.

VERVOLG VAN BLADSY 1 “Die grootste probleem was om almal op die verhoog te laat stilstaan, maar elkeen het op sy of haar manier ‘gepose’ tot groot vermaak van die gehoor.

“Elkeen se manewales het ons almal se harte warm laat klop en die ouers het die meeste geraas.

“Van die deelnemers neem al die vierde keer aan die kompetisie deel en ons sien hoe hulle elke jaar groei – nie net as individue met mooi persoonlikhede nie, maar ook in hul liefde vir mekaar,” het Smit gesê.

Micia is ook die ambassadeur vir die Daniel and Friends-stigting en die skoonheidswedstryd was net nog een van haar projekte om die gemeenskap te help.

Die deelnemers moes toiletware bring, wat op Mandeladag (18 Julie) in saal G3 by die Tygerberg-hospitaal uitgedeel is. Die ekstra geld wat by die deur ingesamel is, is gebruik om lekkergoed, klein geskenkies en ander benodigdhede vir die uitreikprogramme van Projek Bietjie Liefde te gebruik.

“Ons gaan van die geld gebruik om bestanddele te koop vir ons straatprojek, waar ons kos aan straatmense uitdeel. Ons hou ’n verjaardagpartytjie by die Sive Nathikinderhuis in Blackheath en die lekkergoed sal vir die kinders gegee word,” het Smit gesê. Die Sive Nathi-kinderhuis is ’n huis vir kinders met gestremdhede en een keer per kwartaal word daar ’n partytjie gehou.”

Vanjaar word dit gehou op Saterdag 31 Augustus. “Ons gee vir die kinders wat verjaar geskenkies en die res kry dan lekkergoed.

“Op Saterdag 28 September gaan ons kolwyntjies by die Paarl Mall verkoop as deel van Cupcakes 4 Kids with Cancer. Ons is op soek na mense wat nog kolwyntjies kan skenk, want ons wil dit aan soveel kinders as moontlik uitdeel.

“Ons het elke jaar ’n Bietjie Liefde-span wat aan die Cansa Relay for Life deelneem, en dit word op Saterdag 2 November gehou.

Elke jaar tydens Kersfees reik ons ook uit na straatmense deur kos, klere en toiletwa-

Die deelnemers wat aan die skoonheidswedstryd deelgeneem het, het nie vir een oomblik stilgestaan nie re aan hulle uit te deel en dit gaan ons vanjaar op Saterdag 22 Desember doen,” het Smit gesê. As deel van haar en Micia se betrokkenheid by die Daniel and Friends-stigting hou hulle op Saterdag 5 Oktober die Different is Cool-modeparade. Die gala-aand van die stigting word op Saterdag 8 November gehou.

Allegra Lategan en Claire Strumpher gee mekaar ’n drukkie op die verhoog.

T

he annual Compassion Convention where children could be children was a huge success.

About 65 children, 25 leaders and 50 volunteers or day visitors attended camp from Monday 15 to Thursday 19 July in Melkbosstrand. It was organised by HewLin Compassion, a non-governmental organisation (NGO).

Kraaifontein resident and founder of HewLin Compassion, Hewitt de Jager, says this year they were able to accommodate more children from different areas including Bellville, Parow, Leonsdale, Elsies River, Kuils River, Athlone and Steenberg.

“Some of these children previously lived on the street while others dropped out

of school and are living in extremely poor conditions,” says De Jager.

A combined effort from provincial government, NPOs, faith-based institutions, corporate industries, families, friends and individuals came together to make the camp possible for the children. They are also working towards alleviating the impoverished circumstances some are facing.

De Jager says the children enjoyed various activities, which included arts and crafts. He says representatives from the provincial health department were also present at the camp and spoke to the children about health-related issues and personal hygiene.

“The children also learned about the issues in their communities and challenges they face, including gangsterism and drugs.”

According to De Jager, because the children might not have the best concentration span, the activities were structured in such a way that it had both theoretical and practical aspects. “The children were very hands-on and received the activities well.”

De Jager says this year’s theme “Let children be children” was an extension of last year’s theme. However, this year, the leaders were more focused on the values of the organisation.

“Everything was structured around these values and the leaders also attended workshops.”

He says it is still early days to see what impact the camp had on the children but the main aim is to get children back home and in school again. De Jager says they will have follow-up sessions next month to see how the children are doing.

Art of Vuleka’s best exhibited Art of finalists of the Vuleka Art competition is currently exhibited at the Art.B Galery at the Bellville Library Centre.

The annual Vuleka Art competition was established by the Arts Association of Bellville way back in 1963. Vuleka means Open in isiXhosa.

It is the oldest continuous competition in South Africa and works indicating an original concept, strong individual expression and excellent technical execution are considered for the exhibition.

Annelie Venter won for her oil painting on canvas The farmer and his wife.

Second place went to Fanie Marais for his work Notre Dame brand (mixed media).

Third prize went to Christel Liebenberg and Elske Henderson for Humachine (mixed media and new media).

Fourth prize was shared by Victor Harley for his Observe (mixed media, pen, pastel) and Millie Wilson for her Fearless beauty (oil on canvas).

The exhibition at the library in Carel van Aswegen Street in Bellville started on Wednesday 24 July and closes on Tuesday 13 August.

Approximately 1 000 people attended the public meeting at the Velodrome in Bellville.

Public still in limbo about fate of Velodrome AVRIL FILLIES

T

he public meeting to determine the fate of the Velodrome in Bellville left the attendees with more questions than answers. The meeting was held on Thursday 25 July at the Velodrome and approximately 1 000 people attended.

“I was the first speaker and my first question was why the City of Cape Town has not consulted the tenants that have leases with the City 15 years ago, before the tender was sent out,” Abdul Davids, chairperson of Cycling Western Province, said.

Four representatives of the City attended to answer the questions and the facilitator was Freddie Prince, director of urban management.

“We have an existing lease with the City and so do the athletes and schools. We don’t understand why the process of consulting us first was not followed before the tender was given to Devmet. The agreement between the City and Devmet is not valid because the R15 million that Devmet had to pay into a trust before any development could be done, was not done,” Davids said.

The public still has the opportunity to log in on the public forum created for complaints, he said.

“The City held a public participation process 10 years after it awarded the tender.

Why is this? Why was this public participation process not held prior to granting the tender?” Davids asked.

Maureen Gallon, chairman of the Edgemead Facility Management Committee, said she was astounded. “Why was no public meeting held first before the City decided to give the tender to Devmet. Now the City tells us the facility is under-utilised, but they allowed the facility to go downhill,”

she said vehemently.

Currently you can only book the facility from month-to-month basis and this is not feasible.

“In the past, we held international and national events at the Velodrome and a monthto-month basis is not going to work. Athletes, cyclists and other users of the facility have to prepare in advance for events especially if we have overseas athletes participating. This is a public asset for all sporting codes.

The City needs to take it back from the developer as they (Devmark) are in breach of their contract for not transferring the money to an attorney to be put in a trust. As the public participation process was not done 10 years ago, due process has not been followed and this negates the agreement.

The codes wish to take back this public facility and return it to the sporting fraternity,” Gallon said.

She also mentioned when the City and Devmet signed the agreement in 2009 the developer had 60 days to pay the R15 million, and if it was not done, it was a breach of contract. “No extension will be given as per the terms. Pockets of the parking area cannot be tendered away as this too raises the question of the parking bays currently part of the Velodrome. All in all the City cannot hold a public participation process after they have already negotiated with a developer without consulting the general public.

Too much like putting the cart before the horse and expecting us to be dazzled by screenshots of proposed refurbishments by a developer. The proposals conflict with the existing malls at Tyger Valley and Willowbridge,” Gallon said.

The City did not respond by the time TygerBurger went to print.

He aims to create awareness about the plight of our oceans and raise R480 000 in crowdfunding for conservation efforts ahead of his dive attempt on the weekend of 9 to 11 August.

“Yes, as an enthusiastic scuba diver, a part of me is strangely excited by this challenge of remaining underwater for 48 hours, but what I’m really hoping to achieve with this attempt, is create more awareness about why hing, oceanic health and to combat and how we can take better care of poaching.

The date was selected becaueducation about sustainable fis- se it’s when the water temperature

is expected to be the most optimal. One of the main criteria for the record is that the water temperature must not exceed 15°C. Such a long duration underwater presents several challenges that include dehydration, oxygen consumption and flushing excess nitrogen. Prolonged exposure to cold water is another big concern. When this happens, one’s body’s energy is drained and your ability to think clearly is affected, which can lead to hypothermia. Human needs such as eating, drinking and sleeping underwater also need to be factored in.

It goes without saying that a lot of mental, emotional and logistical preparation is required when undertaking a task such as this.

Also known as One Mr Fish Breath, he has every intention of winning. He has close to 10 years diving experience, upwards of 100 dives under his belt, and has for three consecutive dive festivals won the contest for being the diver who spends the longest amount of time underwater.

Individuals or corporations are invited to get involved by donating to the 48Hrs Below BackaBuddy crowdfund.

Mopping up operations continue in city T

he disaster operations centre logged at least 43 flooding-related incidents; 122 power outages across; nine incidents of trees that had blown over or fallen branches and two incidents where roofs were blown across the metropole.

The Disaster Risk Management Centre is coordinating the City of Cape Town’s response to incidents reported.

The numbers of reported incidents during the previous cold front are as follows: . 3640 structures affected in Masiphumelele, Imizamo Yethu, Khayelitsha, Burundi, Nomzamo and Wallacedene. . fallen trees were reported in Parow, Edgemead, Crawford, Panorama, Durbanville and Brackenfell. . roads flooded across the city – most no-

tably in Wallacedene, as well as Pelican Park, Ottery and Diep River. . power outages in Strand, Bonteheuwel, Observatory, Noordhoek, Joe Slovo Park, Athlone, Wynberg, Gugulethu, Nyanga, Sunnydale, Rondebosch, Philippi, Mitchell’s Plain, Hout Bay and Plumstead.

“This situation will change as repair teams make their way through the list of reported incidents.

“We ask that residents please bear with us, as assessments have to be completed for purposes of record before assistance like flood kits can be provided. They did make emergency shelters available to the affected communities; however, these offers have not been accepted,” says Mayco member for safety and security, JP Smith.

Following the Winter Task Team’s meeting on Wednesday 24 July, blockages in the stormwater system emerged as one of the biggest concerns. These blockages are the result of illegal dumping, but also people storing items in the drains.

“Another concern raised is the quality of the information provided when members of the public log service requests or alert us to emergencies. This has the potential to slow down response times or results in the incorrect agency responding.

“A simple example is, if the emergency is at City rental stock, we ask that callers indicate such because that too will help determine the correct department to lead the response.

“Therefore, my appeal to the public when

reporting any incidents during heavy weather episodes, but also just in general, is to give as much information as possible, that our response matches their need,” says Smith.

The City reminds residents of the following tips when making a call for help: . once you have dialled the number and are through to the operator, give them your contact number first so they can call you back if you lose connection; . always give your full name; . describe your location as accurately as you can as the operator might not know your neighbourhood as you do. . give the details of your emergency and let the operator guide the conversation; . stay on the line for as long as you can.

Right people key to success of business PROMOTION To be in business for almost 22 years is an achievement in itself but would not be possible without the right employees.

This is how Nathaniel Roberts, owner of Timbacore in Stikland, sums up his success through the years since his company was established in 1998.

To make a success of a business is a miracle and you’ll have to deal with trials and new challenges on the way.

“International statistics show that a very small percentage of companies make it past the 10-year mark. The odds are in my favour as I am celebrating 21 years in business,” he said.

If he and any employee make a mistake, he refers to the mistake as ‘paying school The staff of Timbacore in Stikland. fees’ and stepping stones.

“It is difficult to get the right staff. A lot mers would not necessarily pay a deposit of people start or get chances but not all live because they didn’t know me.

Use reputable timber suppliers The Institute for Timber Construction South Africa (ITC-SA), the SA timber engineering industry’s professional body, wishes to reiterate the importance of using reputable timber suppliers or merchants whose timber complies with the relevant characteristic values.

“We encourage our members and the industry at large to remain steadfast in selecting and using only compliant structural timber that is certified by either of the only accreditation bodies currently in South Africa: The South African Bureau of Standards (SABS) and South African Technical Auditing Services (SATAS), who certify products in compliance with the relevant standards,” says Amanda Obbes, ITCSA General Manager.

It is critical that standards are maintained at all times and that all timber produced and destined for the SA structural market, is compliant. As such, it is expected that local as well as interna-

tional manufacturers of structural timber destined for the SA market, will be certified by a South African-based ISO 17065 accredited Product Certification Body, which is also applicable to the neighbouring states (Swaziland and Zimbabwe).

“We request that all members to be aware of the need for compliance with national legislation and to not make use of either locally produced timber or imports that do not comply with SA standards and requirements,” Obbes concludes.

The institute was established 45 years ago to self-regulate the engineered timber roof structure industry and to provide design, manufacturing, erection, inspection and certification for compliance with inter alia SANS 10400 and SANS 10082, where engineering rational designs are applicable.

Lag ’n bietjie saam met Mel Jones SAMANTHA LEE @samantha_lee121

A

l wat sy wou doen toe sy klein was, was om ander mense te laat lag.

Nou doen die komediant Mel Jones dit vir ’n lewe.

“Toe ek baie jonk was, het ek ’n fliek gaan kyk en toe ek uitstap, het ek só gelukkig gevoel. My siel was gelukkig. Ek kan nie eers meer die naam van die fliek onthou nie. Al wat ek onthou, is dat ek daardie dag geweet het dat ek dit wil doen as ek groot is – om mense gelukkig te maak,” sê sy.

Terwyl sy in die kleinhandelbedryf gewerk het, het haar ma haar vertel van komedie-slypskole wat in Woodstock aangebied word.

Mel was altyd van nature snaaks, maar het nooit gedink dat sy ’n loopbaan van dit sou kon maak nie.

“Ek het die slypskole bygewoon en die fasiliteerder het vir my gesê ek kan nie ‘net daar sit nie’. Die volgende klas het ek van my eie werk saamgevat en dit is baie goed ontvang. Die volgende week het hulle my naam op die lys gesit by ’n oopmikrofoonsessie. Ek was nog nooit vantevore ’n aanhanger van stand upkomedie nie, maar toe die gogga eers gebyt het, kon ek dit nie laat gaan nie,” sê sy.

Mel het in haar loopbaan van 10 jaar verskeie hoëprofiel-optredes gehad, insluitend by die Baxter-teater. Sy’t ook ’n paar toekennings ontvang vir haar werk. Danksy haar sukses as komediant het sy ook ’n suksesvolle radioloopbaan vir haarself uitgekerf.

“Toe ek die radiowese verlaat, het ek teruggegaan na my eerste liefde – komedie,” sê Mel.

Toe sy destyds begin optree het, was sy een van die min vroulike komediante in die land.

Volgens Mel het die feit dat sy meeste van die tyd die enigste vrou tussen ’n klomp mans was haar egter nie afgeskrik van ’n loopbaan in komedie nie.

Sy is trots is om ’n ambassadeur te wees vir vroulike komediante, omdat sy een van die eerstes was wat die bedryf betree het.

“Vroue dink nie aan komedie as ’n loopbaan nie en omdat daar nie baie vroue is wat dit doen nie, wil vroue dit nie probeer nie. Hoe meer vroue egter by komedie betrokke raak, hoe meer sal die weg gebaan word vir ander vroue,” sê sy.

“Mense dink komedie is maklik, maar dit is ’n wanopvatting. Die snaaksste ou rondom die braaivleisvuur beteken nie noodwendig hy gaan suksesvol wees op die verhoog nie.

“Jy moet klomp dinge op die verhoog probeer. Jy sal nooit weet of dit werk nie, tensy jy dit probeer. Dit is hárde werk en net met oefening sal jy beter raak. Dit vat lank om naam te maak.”

Mel is die gasvrou by TygerBurger se Fearlessly Female-vroue-oggend op Vrydag 9 Augustus. Sy beskou haarself as die “glittergom wat alles bymekaar hou” by so ’n geleentheid.

“Ek is passievol oor vroue en om met vroue te werk. Vroue gee soveel en plaas hulself dikwels laaste. Hulle probeer eers om al die ander mense gelukkig te maak voordat hulle aan hulself dink,” sê sy. Sy belowe energie, lag, plesier en vermaak by die vroue-oggend.

“Om met die gehoor te connect en te hoor dat ek hulle ná ’n slegte dag laat glimlag het, is die beste gevoel in die wêreld,” sê sy.

Gou spring, slegs ’n handjie vol kaartjies is oor

Kom skater van die lag saam met Mel Jones by TygerBurger se Fearlessly Female-vroueoggend, aangebied in samewerking met Spec-Savers op Vrouedag (9 Augustus) op die Zevenwacht-wynlandgoed.

Op die spyskaart saam met Mel is die bekende chef Jenny Morris, wat die potte aan die brand gaan kook, asook die nuutste modes van die Kaapse mode-duo Bridget Pickering en Ludwig Bausch van Ruff Tung.

Elke vrou wat ’n kaartjie na die geselligheid koop, ondersteun ook vrouebemagtiging, want ’n deel van die wins van die oggend word geskenk aan die organisasies Women4Women, ’n organisasie sonder winsbejag. Die organisasie word bestuur deur Cindy Nel, ’n voormalige Mej. SA, en is gemik op vrouebemagtiging in die gemeenskap.

Nel gaan moontlik ook ’n draai by die geleentheid maak.

V Die vrouedaggeselligheid begin om 09:00 vir 09:30. Versnapperinge en ’n ligte middagete sal bedien word. Lekker pryse word ook weggegee, soos sonbrille van SpecSavers, grimering van Essence, en vele meer.

Elke vrou ontvang ook ’n geskenksak met ’n R100-geskenkbewys van Platinum Hair en items van Essence, Ellips, Comfit Care, Peninsula Beverages, Spec-Savers, TygerBurger en meer.

aar is genoeg geleenthede én ellende in die gemeenskappe waar ons bly, waarby ons betrokke kan raak,” het Dan Kriek, president van Agri SA Donderdag 25 Julie by die vergadering van die Durbanville-sakekamer aan sakelui gesê.

Kriek het ’n realistiese prentjie geskets oor grondonteiening enkele dae voordat die verslag oor grondhervorming sonder vergoeding van die presidensiële advieskomitee, waarvan Kriek ook lid is, uitgereik is.

Die verslag is Sondag 28 Julie deur Thoko Didiza, minister van landbou, uitgereik.

“Die tema van hierdie praatjie moes nie onteiening gewees het nie, maar volhoubare grondhervorming en hoekom ons eintlik okei gaan wees,” het hy gesê.

“Daar het baie dinge die afgelope 18 maande gebeur en Agri SA is negatief uitgebeeld op sosiale media, maar mense moet seker maak waar hierdie inligting vandaan kom.

Agri SA verteenwoordig nie net die Afrikaanssprekendes nie, maar die belange van baie mense in landbou – ook swart boere.

Daar is tans 100 000 opkomende boere wat deur Agri SA affiliasies bedien word,” het hy gesê.

“Landbou dra net tot 3% van die BBP by, maar tot 15% van ons land se ekonomie deur die landbouwaardeketting. Ons moet verantwoordelik hieroor ’n gesprek voer,” het hy gesê.

“Reeds met die ANC se beleidskonferensie in 2017 het ons verwag dat die gronddebat al hoe meer verpolitiseer gaan word.

Daarom het Agri SA ’n grondoudit gaan doen om invloed te kan uitoefen by die debat.

“Daaruit het dit geblyk dat 27% van die land se grond reeds oorgedra is aan swart Suid-Afrikaners. Dit het ook geblyk dat die private sektor meer grond oordra as wat die regering doen. Daar gebeur dus wel transformasie en grondhervorming. Ons moet onderskei tussen die werklikheid en politieke aspirasies,” het hy gesê.

“Die meeste suksesse word behaal in die private sektor, terwyl nagenoeg 90% van die regering se pogings misluk het,” het hy gesê.

“Wat met die landbou gebeur, het ook ’n impak op ander sektore van die ekonomie.

Almal besef nie dis nie net die boere se probleem nie, maar almal se probleem. Ons sal saam ’n oplossing moet kry, “Ons weet almal van die parlementêre

prosesse om die Grondwet te wysig wat aan die gang is. Ek dink president Ramaphosa is besig met ’n lang kantlynskop, maar dis nie goed vir die ekonomie nie; dit vat te lank.

“Ons boere is praktiese mense en toegewyd; ons verstaan wat gedoen moet word. ’n Mens kry onder die boere early adopters, maar dan ook die grootste gros wat graag iets wil doen, maar nie weet wat om te doen nie.

“Onsekerheid word op sosiale media geskep wat betref veiligheid (spesifiek teen plaasmoorde) en die droogte veroorsaak ook ekonomiese druk.

“Ramaphosa weet hy kan nie die ekonomie beskadig en voedselsekerheid bedreig nie,” het hy gesê.

Kriek en nog ’n lid van die advieskomitee, Nick Serfontein, het ook Sondag ’n aanvullende, minderheidsverslag uitgereik, waarin hulle nie die voorstelle steun om die Grondwet te wysig nie.

“Daar is geen regstegniese rede hoekom die Grondwet verander moet word nie. Daar is geen land in die wêreld waar onteiening sonder vergoeding plaasvind nie, behalwe in lande wat sektore van hul ekonomie genasionaliseer het. Die punt is, ons kan al die veranderinge wat nodig is, binne die huidige Grondwet doen.

“Ons gaan vinnige vordering sien met die onteieningswet. Dit was maklik om voor die verkiesing te sê ons gaan die Grondwet verander, maar om dit te doen, is malligheid.

“Belegging sal nie die land inkom nie, want geen sakeman wil belê in ’n land waar onteiening sonder vergoeding geld nie.

Daar is ongelooflike internasionale druk om dit nie te doen nie.

“Daar gaan niks met produktiewe grond gebeur in die volgende 10 jaar nie. Daar is ook nie ’n tekort aan bereidwilligheid by boere nie. Boere besef hulle het ’n maatskaplike verantwoordelikheid teenoor hul werkers.

“Ek is positief oor die toekoms. Ons skraap die bodem, maar dit lyk beter. Ons regstelsel en vrye media is nie gekaap nie – ook nie ons burgerlike samelewing nie.

“Onteiening is ’n stofwolk – dis nie die antwoord op ons probleme nie. Dis beter om om ’n tafel te sit en planne te beraam om ons probleme op te los,” het hy gesê.

“Die grootste uitdaging is nie die vraag na plaasgrond nie, maar na grond in stedelike gebiede vir behuising. Daar is ’n stadige oorgang na ’n fokus op stedelike behuising en ontwikkeling. Ons móét vir mense eiendomsreg gee,” het hy gesê.

More homes needed for ‘singles’ T

he new General Household Survey (GHS) report, just released by StatsSA, has huge implications for the residential property sector, according to Rudi Botha, chief executive officer of BetterBond.

“For a start, the survey found that about half of all South Africans over the age of 18 are single, either because they have never been married or because they are now divorced or widowed. What is more, that percentage rockets among 18 to 34-year-olds, with 95% of men in this age group and 86% of women have never been married and not currently living with a partner either.”

As a result the rate of new household formation in SA – which usually happens as people move out of their childhood homes and set up on their own – is growing at 2,4% per year while the rate of population growth is only 1.3% a year. “What this means is that we are probably not only going to need a lot more homes to be built, but a lot more homes suited to young singles, single parents and single seniors.

“According to StatsSA, the number of households in SA has grown from 12.8m to 16.7m over the past 10 years – and less than 40% of these now consist of families with four or more members. Almost 26% (or more than 4m) contain just one person,

while a total of 62% are composed of three people or less.”

Although the number of households living in formal homes has risen by 5.5 million since 2002 to a total of 13.5 million currently, there has also been an increase in the number of those living in informal homes, from 1.5 million to almost 2.2 million (13.1%) – with the remainder living in traditional or other homes.

“In other words, the provision of new formal homes has also not kept pace with the growth in the number of households – and there are vast opportunities and possibilities inherent in this fact for developers, builders, banks, investors, estate agents, originators like ourselves and many others involved in or associated with the residential property sector.”

He says the potential for job creation and empowering people over time to become homeowners rather than tenants is also massive. “Research has shown, for example, that every home built gives rise to between one and three permanent jobs.

“It has also shown the benefits of homeownership in terms of social cohesion and

private wealth creation, but right now even the creation of more formal rental accommodation that is affordable would be a significant advance for almost one million households that currently rent informal homes – mostly close to SA’s major urban areas.”

It would also create many new opportunities for buy-tolet investors, although the GHS shows that this market is already fairly large, with some 3,4m households currently occupying formal rental accommodation, says Botha.

“We hope to see the vigorous implementation of government’s plans, announced during the recent State of the Nation Address, to rapidly identify and allocate underutilised public land close to the metros for new affordable housing projects.

Financed linked individual subsidy programme we would like to see more streamlined access to the Flisp (financed linked individual subsidy programme) government housing subsidy for those earning between R3 500 and R22 000 – and more first-time buyers becoming aware of the multiple benefits of applying for their home loans through a reputable originator.”

“The number of households in SA has grown from 12,8m to 16,7m over the past 10 years”

TER RUSTE GELÊ: HÝ WAS ’N SAGMOEGDIGE SOKKEREUS

Maxwell laat leemte AVRIL FILLIES

D

ie heengaan van Maxwell Swartland (61) van Bishop Lavis, alombekend as Max, is ’n groot slag vir die sokkergemeenskap in die Wes-Kaap en nie net vir die Bishop Lavis-gemeenskap nie.

Sy sokkerspore strek so ver as die Overberg, waar hy eiehandig gehelp het om sokkervelde te skep. Hy het self met ’n skoffel en graaf ingeklim om ’n stuk veld skoon te maak sodat ander sokkerliefhebbers daar ook sy liefde vir die spel kan deel.

In sy huldeblyk by die begrafnisdiens in Goodwood, het Paul Arendse, sekretaris van die sokkervereniging, gesê dat Swartland se lewe in vier dae onvoorwaardelik omgekeer is.

“Max het op Vrydag 5 Julie afgetree uit die staatsdiens, sy 61ste verjaardag op Sondag 7 Julie gevier, op dieselfde dag die jaarvergadering in Macassar bygewoon, die Cokebekerwedstryde bygewoon en Dinsdag 9 Julie, is hy nie meer met ons nie,” het Arendse gesê.

Swartland het sy hoërskoolloopbaan in 1972 by die Hoërskool John Ramsay in Bishop Lavis begin en was in sy matriekjaar in 1976 die hoofseun.

Sy groot glimlag was eie aan hom en hy het altyd ander se belange bo sy eie gestel.

Hy het sy sokkerloopbaan by die destydse Goodwood Rangers begin en later vir Celtic gespeel voordat hy as sekretaris by die Bishop Lavis-sokkerklub begin het.

In 1990 was hy een van die afgevaardigdes van die Noordelikes-unie se onderhandelingspan, wat instrumenteel was in die samesmelting met die Central-Sokkerunie, wat in Matroosfontein gesetel was.

Arendse en Swartland het saam op die

Maxwell Swartland uitvoerende bestuur van Noordelikes gedien, terwyl Swartland ook lid was van die Bishop Lavis-sokkerklub. Deur dié samesmelting is die nou bekende Noordelike Voorstede Plaaslike Sokkervereniging (NSLFA) in 1991 gestig.

In die huldeblyk van die Suid-Skiereilandse Plaaslike Sokkervereniging word

hy as ’n sokkerreus beskryf.

“Hy was bekend as iemand wat altyd sokker eerste gestel het deur die spel op enige moontlike manier bekend te stel, aan te beveel of om ’n paar balle saam met die juniors rond te skop. Hoewel hy later ’n administrateur was, het hy nooit sy passie vir sokker verloor nie,” het ’n verteenwoordiger van die vereniging gesê.

Max het in die Overbergstreek self die doelpale rondgedra, in vergaderings gesit om die spel te bevorder of om sokkerkompetisies te reël.

“Wanneer wedstryde in Bishop Lavis gespeel moes word, het ons geweet hy sal op die veld wees om te help om moontlike probleme op te los,” het die huldeblyk verder gelui.

David Slater, een van sy sokkervriende, het gesê dat Swartland ’n sagmoedige reus was.

Ernest Zondi, sekretaris van Safa Kaapstad, het hom as Mnr. Sokker beskryf.

“Ons was al die jare vriende – op en van die veld af. As enigeen van ons hulp nodig gehad het, het ons nie geskroom om te bel en daarvoor te vra nie.

Ek gaan hom baie mis, veral sy geselsies ná wedstryde en die groot glimlag op sy gesig,” het Zondi gesê.

Vernon Seymour het in sy huldeblyk genoem dat Swartland in die sewentiger- en

tagtigerjare gesorg het dat jong seuns by sokker betrokke raak en nie deel word van bendes nie.

Perry Uys, een van sy spanmaats by Goodwood Rangers, het gesê dat Swartland baie gewild was onder die spelers en altyd betrokke was by die juniors die Saterdagoggend voordat hy die middag sy klubverpligtinge as senior moes nakom.

Volgens Johannes Lewis, voorsitter van Bishop Lavis-sokkerklub, was Swartland die streeksekretaris van Safa Kaapstad van 2006 tot 2016 en koördineerder van die SA Brouerye se ligakompetisie. Van 2014 tot 2019 was hy die sekretaris en registrasiebeampte by die klub.

“Toe Max in 2014 by die klub aangesluit het, het hy ’n groot rol in die verandering van die klub se grondwet gespeel. Hy het nie net sy eie rolle waarin hy aangestel is nie, vervul nie, maar ook op ander vlakke van bestuur in die klub, handjie bygesit.

“Hy was een van die jongste lede wat op die NLFA gedien het en het ook die meeste poste vervul op die Bishop Lavis-Sportforum (BLASARA),” het Lewis gesê.

Hy was ook ’n mense-mens en geen taak was te klein of te groot vir hom nie.

In 2007 is hy deur Safa as die streeksekretaris van die Overbergstreek aangestel en was hy vir al die administratiewe pligte verantwoordelik.

“Weens sy betrokkenheid by die klub het ons talle bekers ingepalm. Sy familie was ook vir hom belangrik, en namens die klub wil ek hom vir sy bydrae tot spelers en sokker salueer,” het Lewis gesê.

Swartland is voorverlede Saterdag vanuit die Anglikaanse kerk St. Albans in Goodwood begrawe en laat ’n seun en dogter agter.

Mo het kompetisie!

Die skare het die afgelope Saterdag op Central Park in Northpine toegesak om die meisie-weergawe van Mo Salah van Liverpool in Engeland in aksie te sien.

Altesame 32 sokkerspanne het aan die mini-wêreldbekertoernooi vir o.8- en o.10-spanne deelgeneem.

Skyler Alexander (9) was almal se held, want sy is die enigste meisie wat saam met die seuns speel. Sy speel in Northpine United se o.8-span.

“Sy is die een met die lang vlegsels en hoor net hoe word sy aangemoedig om die doelwagter te klop!” het ’n trotse pa, André Diedericks (42), gesê.

Die graad 3-sokkerster presteer nie net op die sokkerveld nie, maar ook akademies by die Laerskool Boston in Bellville.

Volgens haar pa maak sy nie net haar sokkerklub trots nie, maar sy is die queen met sokkerspeletjies op die Xbox.

Hoewel haar span nie tot die volgende ronde deurgedring het nie, was almal bly toe sy met haar vinnige voete ’n doel kon skiet, wat die toeskouers opgewonde gemaak het.

Diedericks sê hy en Skyler se ma, TraceyLee Alexander, staan bankvas agter hul sokkerspelende dogter.

“Haar groot droom is eendag om vir Liverpool of Banyana Banyana uit te draf. Sy hoop ook om eendag daar te wees om haar groot helde van Liverpool te sien speel.”

Sergio Pasquallie, afrigter van Northpine United se o.8A-span, sê Skyler maak almal baie trots.

Hy sê haar vaardighede op die veld is ook baie goed en hulle het nie nodig om hard aan haar vaardighede te werk wanneer hulle oefen nie.

Hy sê hulle “Mo Salah” gaan nog vir haar ouers rekords breek.

Chad Fish, ’n sokkeraanhanger, sê dit was lekker om die kinders sokker te sien speel en hy het ’n gelukkige gevoel gehad toe hy Skyler sien speel.

Die trotse pa André Diedericks (middel) is hier met sy “Dit was die hoogtepunt vir dogter, Skyler Alexander, wat “Mo Salah” deur die skare my en my vriende,” sê hy. Mcegedoop is, en ’n medespeler, Mason Koonthea, albei van die bisi Bokolo en Sto Nongogo van Northpine United-sokkerklub.

Khayelitsha sê hulle het dit ge-

Nongogo sê sport hou die kinders weg van dwelms en misdaad en hy het die toernooi geniet.
