Tyres set alight A truck was set alight in Dunoon last week during violent protests which broke out on Friday, apparently due to the eviction of illegal land grabbers. The protest also led to severe traffic congestion this week.

Beam Improvement District and who worked with Van Rooyen, described him as a wonderful person, and a good friend. He was humble, hardworking and always prepared to help anyone, Pronk says.

“He was passionate about fighting crime and we did many patrols together in the Montague Gardens area to assist in curbing crime.

He was firm in his approach with homeless people, but was also the first to help if he could, going as far as buying a bus ticket

for one old chap once to reunite him with his family in George,” Pronk says.

He says Van Rooyen will be sorely missed and that the Montague Gardens and Milnerton Ridge communities had lost a great activist.

Last week TygerBurger approached the City of Cape Town’s safety and security directorate to find out what safety measures they have in place to ensure the well-being of volunteers such as Van Rooyen.

he safety of neighbourhood watch members came under the spotlight recently, following the death of a 34-yearold Milnerton Ridge Neighbourhood Watch volunteer.

Ignatius van Rooyen was shot in the chest on Friday 21 June.

According to the police, the victim was in pursuit of a vehicle which he had managed

to pull over. Several shots were fired at him from the vehicle, and he was declared dead at the scene.

An honour patrol was held for him on Monday 24 June attended by Mayco member for safety and security, JP Smith, as well as Mlulami Ngeyi, councillor for ward 4.

A private memorial service was also held on Thursday 27 June at the Theo Marais Park in Milnerton.

up the alignment in our financial statements between billed revenue and ‘cash in hand’, and will serve to prevent further confusion of groups such as Stop COCT. “If anything this directive has now vindicated the City’s consistent position that, contrary to the claims of Stop COCT over the last 12+ months, the drought, in fact, caused an under-recovery of revenue.”

Stop COCT: “The City stating that it was confusing groups such as Stop COCT is an understatement.

“This boils down to plain opportunistic accounting practices by the City as well the inability to report truthfully and accurately on the water department’s financial situation.

“Their financial statements were in fact misconstrued to show an over-recovery in water revenue.

“It took the AG to point out to the City what Stop COCT had been saying for months.

“The question remains now whether these write-offs were sufficient to make the City’s water revenue figures credible in future.”

Neilson: “The City had lowered the restriction level to level 3 over the recent months. “The level 3 restriction tariffs are noticeably less than level 6 restriction tariffs. “Level 3 restriction relies on a higher consumption level to achieve a revenue target, to sustain the cost of water and sanitation services. “It is clear from analysis of the financial information that recent consumption has not increased to the level of the revenue target, and resulted in under-recovery experienced during level 3 restrictions.”

Stop COCT: “The fact that water is consumed at much lower levels than was budgeted for by the City is living proof that the setting of tariffs and the way the City is attempting to restrict water usage by financial means is just not working.

“The City currently has non-revenue water to the tune of 28%. This is exasperated by the new policy of having indigent accounts zero-rated.

“This means that these hundreds of thousands of households can use water unrestricted while at the same time the City has stringent water restrictions for the paying customers.

“The limit for paying customers is still set at only 105 litres per person per day.

“This back to front policy of the City is only serving to make the City’s financial situation to deteriorate even more in future by severely restricting paying customers, but at the same time allows non-revenue water to go uncontrolled.”

Neilson: “The City would like to reassure residents that off the back of this decision we are looking into other mechanisms to prevent accumulation of debt that cannot be repaid.”

Stop COCT: “We urge the City to come out with the truth about the state of the water department, its losses and its poor management and policies.

“Shrouding it in secrecy only serves to worsen an already bad situation.”

TB: Why were these developments not announced in a press release?

Neilson: Not answered.

TB: Why is the indigent water restriction now zero-rated and not 10.5kl as resolved by council?

Neilson: Not answered TB: Was this process tabled and approved

by City council? And if so when.

Protests cause delays RICHARD ROBERTS @richardjohn_rj

M

otorists wanting to leave Table View and Killarney Gardens, or enter these areas were stuck in severe traffic delays on Monday morning as a result of a violent protest in Dunoon.

Protesters are apparently unhappy about the eviction of illegal land grabbers along Malibongwe Drive where construction work is also currently underway.

Protests flared up over the weekend and affected road users on Malibongwe Drive, Potsdam Road and the N7. These roads had to be closed for motorists and re-opened a number of times since Friday 28 June.

On Monday morning these roads had to be closed once again for motorists wanting to get to work. As a result, vehicles were piled up along Gie Road, Wood Drive, Blaauwberg and Koeberg Road.

During the unrest tyres were set alight, as well as a truck in Killarney Gardens. One construction vehicle was also burnt out last week.

Laura Outhet, spokesperson for the Table View Neighbourhood Watch, told TygerBurger that the watch assisted with closing off Malibongwe Drive until

Law Enforcement and the police advised that it could be re-opened again.

“Our volunteers were stationed at a safe distance away from the action under the instruction of Law Enforcement and the police.

“The neighbourhood watch did this on Friday, Saturday and Sunday,” Outhet said.

She added that the watch also sent out messages via WhatsApp groups, street committees and social media of the volatile situation, warning the public to find alternative routes.

On Monday afternoon, the City of Cape Town, said in a statement that it condemns the violent protest that has plagued Dunoon this past week.

Malusi Booi, Mayco member for human settlement said he was disturbed by the scenes of violence and lawlessness.

“While the City supports the right to protest, we condemn in the strongest terms illegal and violent protest which threaten the lives of our residents and cause costly damage to infrastructure and services.

“Every rand that is spent repairing damaged, burnt or vandalised facilities, or infrastructure, is money that could be spent on providing housing to those who wait patiently on the City’s database,” said Booi.

Table View, ‘The Illuminati’?

RICHARD ROBERTS @richardjohn_rj Usually, when visiting a neighbourhood, town or city one is welcomed by beautiful signboards. In Table View, however, this is not the case.

As one enters the area via Blaauwberg Road, a sign with a rather concerning warning welcomes motorists.

It reads: “Do you know you are entering a suburb of majority very nice, wickedly evil people? They are illuminati! They want a third of the world population dead. Now is that not nice?”

The sign, which is written on a piece of

cardboard, is located on the corners of Gie Road and Blaauwberg Road in Table View.

No one was at the sign when TygerBurger drove past it recently. It was likely left behind by a street person, or beggar.

The City of Cape Town did indicate earlier this year at a public meeting that it is in the process of identifying a piece of land on which it wants to build a night shelter. . According to the internet, The Illuminati is a name given to several groups, both real and fictitious.

Historically, the name usually refers to the Bavarian Illuminati, a secret society founded on 1 May 1776 (Age of Enlightenment).

Du Plooy and the SASNIK company will be back in the Bellville Magistrate’s Court on Thursday 8 August whilst he and Gani are expected to be back in the Wynberg Magistrate’s Court on Thursday 1 August. For the Cape Town case, he will appear on Tuesday 30 July.

Mans in hof oor bedrog met huislenings DESIRÉE RORKE @dezzierorke Gerrit Erasmus Burger (60) is verlede week deur die Valke aangekla vir bedrog en vervalsing nadat hy aansoek gedoen het vir ’n R25 miljoen huislening, met vervalste dokumentasie.

Burger is op 12 Desember 2018 in hegtenis geneem na dié mislukte poging.

In die ondersoek wat gevolg het, het die Valke se ernstige handelsmisdaadeenheid bevind dat Burger ook met dieselfde vervalste dokumentasie ’n R19 miljoen lening by ’n bank in die CapeGate-winkelsentrum op 30 Augustus 2018 gemaak het.

“Burger het op 14 Desember in die Kaapstad-landdroshof verskyn en is op R15 000 borgtog op 6 Maart vanjaar vrygelaat. Hy sal

op 24 Julie weer in dieselfde hof verskyn vir aanklagtes op altwee die voorvalle,” sê kapt.

Philani Nkwalase, ’n woordvoerder van die Valke.

Intussen het drie ander mans op soortgelyke aanklagtes in die Goodwood-landdroshof op Vrydag 21 Junie verskyn.

Devon Wolfaardt (24) is op 19 Junie by ’n bank in N1 Stad-sentrum in hegtenis geneem waar hy aansoek gedoen het vir ’n R200 000 lening met vervalste dokumentasie.

Twee van sy beweerde medepligtiges, Mandla Silwana (26) en Edwill Luzuko Kwatshana (31), is ook in die parkeerterrein van die sentrum in hegtenis geneem. ’n Totaal van 12 gekloonde bankkaarte met pinnommers is in Kwatshana se besit gevind.

Die saak is herroep tot 27 Junie vir verdere inligting vir die borgaansoek,” sê Nkwalase.

New City office opened at Table Bay Mall The City of Cape Town opened a new revenue customer care and motor vehicle registration and licencing (MVRL) office at the Table Bay Mall shopping complex in Sunningdale on Friday 28 June.

The office will be open seven days a week.

According to a media statement, the decision was made due to the growth in the greater Table View area, including Dunoon and Parklands. The nearest offices were Milnerton and Atlantis, resulting in long queues and especially the Milnerton MVRL office being overloaded.

The new office will handle motor vehicle licence renewals and vehicle registrations, all enquiries relevant to rates and services, and accept payments for municipal accounts and traffic fines. The revenue office will also handle rates rebates and indigent applications as well as payment arrange-

ments, refunds and rates relief. It will also sell pre-paid electricity and solid waste disposal coupons, among other services and transactions.

The office is expected to handle between 900 and 2 000 transactions each day.

Mayco member for finance, Ian Neilson said it is important that the City’s customer services become more accessible and convenient for residents. “We are particularly pleased that the office will facilitate debt arrangements, applications for indigent registrations and rates rebates for senior citizens and those with special needs.”

The revenue office will only be closed on public holidays.

Operating hours are: . Monday to Friday: 08:30 to 16:00; . Saturday: 09:00 to 12:30; . Sunday: 09:00 to 12:30.

Safety of officers priority RICHARD ROBERTS @richardjohn_rj

T

he safety of police, neighbourhood watch members and other safety and security personnel is of utmost importance, says Albert Fritz, Western Cape minister of community safety.

His comment comes after the death of a Milnerton Ridge Neighbourhood Watch member who was shot dead in cold blood.

“We cannot allow for violence to cripple our communities any longer.

“Our police officers and neighbourhood watch volunteers should not have to go about their work fearing for their own personal safety.

“We owe it to these brave men and women to establish a new narrative on safety.

“This means that there should be initia-

tives in place to safeguard our citizens in every sphere and sector of government and civil society,” Fritz told TygerBurger.

His remarks follow the death of Ignatius van Rooyen (34) who was gunned down in Freedom Way, Milnerton on Friday 21 June.

Van Rooyen was shot several times by a driver of a vehicle he had stopped and pulled over that evening.

Fritz met with various stakeholders recently to ensure the safety of the people of the province – including the acting police commissioner Major General Mpumelelo Manci, Major General Jeremy Veary and JP Smith, Mayco member for safety and security at the City of Cape Town.

The meeting on Thursday 27 June, comes after a surge in gang-related murders.

FROM PAGE 1 In response, Richard Bosman, executive director for safety and security, said much is done to assist such individuals.

“The City’s safety and security directorate has invested millions of rands in strengthening neighbourhood watches across the city. This includes the training of thousands of members in the practices of community orientated crime prevention and issuing them with equipment such as bicycles, torches, spotlights, first aid kits and jackets.

“In addition, the directorate has built a radio communications network which provides a significant number of neighbourhood watches with direct communication with their members, with other neighbourhood watches and the directorate’s Metro Police’s call centre.

“For this purpose, hand-held radios and radio-based stations for their watch rooms have been issued,” explains Bosman.

He says the City’s intention is to keep growing this communication network.

“The need for assistance to neighbourhood watches has been growing consistently over the last decade and continues to increase. We intend to meet this challenge with efforts to continuously refine and expand our training, and introduce new training modules.

“Our training focusses on crime prevention, hence we do not encourage or expect members to confront criminals. The reality

is, however, that the crime and anti-social behaviour that poses a threat to communities could result in their contact with criminal elements from time to time,” Bosman says.

He adds that the City does support neighbourhood watches, as best they can.

“Neighbourhood watches are volunteer organisations, who do not operate under the directorate’s command and control.

“We are, therefore, not in a position to prescribe protocols of operation to them and have no intention to do so,” Bosman says.

Asked for his view on the matter, Ngeyi, who attended the memorial service on Thursday, said more police presence or visibility is needed in the Milnerton area to ensure the safety of neighbourhood watch members. He also added that neighbourhood watch volunteers need to be fully resourced and financially supported by the national government. “These are individuals who add value to our community, and who are always eager to assist at all times.”

He says the memorial was a very emotional event. “The safety of our neighbourhood watch members are at risk, more back-up is required and the police must come to the party,” Ngeyi says. . Captain Nopaya Madyibi, Milnerton police spokesperson, confirmed that the case is under investigation and that no arrests have yet been made.

Budgeting for ‘hidden’ services For anyone involved in a property purchase there are obvious service providers you will require, like an estate agent, a lawyer, a bond provider and a removal company.

But, Gumtree’s Estelle Nagel says, there’s a long list of other “hidden” services that you should budget for and source in advance. “The process is complicated and full of pitfalls if you don’t prepare properly and get competitive quotes. You can end up in limbo, without a place to move into, or there can be big occupational rent costs for delays, or you can take financial strain from unexpected expenses,” says Nagel She says all parts of the equation – the property you’re leaving, the moving process, and the property you’re moving into – require proper consideration and research. One strong piece of advice is to tackle all the major issues on your new property before you move in: “Structure the time in advance and, while the house is empty, efficiently deal with all the major disruptive activities,” says Nagel.

A list of the “hidden” services you need to keep in mind and budget for, includes: . selling your unwanted stuff: you can do it yourself on Gumtree, have a garage sale or use a one-stop solution who will clear out everything in a single stroke for a commission;

. deed of sale certification: these include an electrician, gas specialist and fumigator . damp specialists: you may need to get rising damp seen to before you leave or before you move in; . roofs and gutters: don’t wait for the belting rains to show you where the problems are in your new home; . a handyman: you can take the do-ityourself approach but it’s usually more effective to get a versatile handyman; . storage: this is now a very competitive business and don’t just accept your removal company’s quote if you need storage; . steam cleaning: important for curtains and furniture; . technicians: to sort wi-fi and DStv installations; . flooring specialists; if you think the wooden floors need treating, then do it before you move in; . alarm specialists: to test or upgrade security systems; . garden services: before you move in, get trees and bushes trimmed; . pool fencing: if you have a toddler, it’s absolutely essential to put a childproof fence around the pool; . pet-proofing: if you have a pet, the new property might need more secure fencing.

Athlete organises beach clean-up LISA LOTTERING @demi_lisa

C

heyenne Kruger (16) and her father Paul from Blouberg organised a 26km beach clean-up on Saturday 29 June. It took place between Blouberg and Melkbos, and back.

She is passionate about saving the environment and organised the beach clean-up to raise funds for her trip to Sasolburg later this year. Kruger will be participating in shotput, javelin and discus in September. She says she has always had a passion for shotput and secured first

place at nationals last year.

Kruger says her training for the competition is going well. “My training schedule depends on the weather, but I usually train on Tuesdays and Thursdays.”

She says she feels good helping the environment.

Cheyenne says she would love to go to the Olympics in the future. However, if that doesn’t work out, she wants to be a paramedic or personal trainer. She also decided to organise this clean-up because she is an animal lover. “Animals shouldn’t be punished for what humans do.”

House of Monatic dresses President THABANG KUAHO @thab_journo

W

ith President Cyril Ramaphosa having called on South African citizens to support local businesses, he heeded his own call during his State of the Nation Address (Sona) when he wore a suit from a Salt River factory on Thursday 20 June.

Ramaphosa wore a smart suit, tie and shirt from House of Monatic, which owns and manufactures formal wear brands such as Csquared and Monatic, among others.

In his address, Ramaphosa reiterated his call for people to buy local. “The suit, shirt and tie I am wearing (today) was locally made by South African textile workers working at the House of Monatic here in Salt River, Cape Town. Let us all

buy locally-made goods to drive up demand in our economy,” he said.

Managing director of House of Monatic Aldo Agnello says the staff were delighted to have the president wear one of their garments at the popular event.

“President Ramaphosa is a proudly South African citizen and when he enquired where he could buy a locally-made suit, he was pointed in our direction,” Agnello explains.

He says House of Monatic has dressed a number of dignitaries like the late former president Nelson Mandela. “We are very privileged to have got the recognition.”

Agnello says the suit was not specifically made for the president, but he chose one that was already on the shelves, and it had to be altered to fit him. He said this kind of recognition

Cat show is serious business TIYESE JERANJI @jeranji With only a few days to go to the Chats du Cap Cat show, the cats taking part in the show must be dying of curiosity.

The show will be open to the public from 09:00 to 15:00 and it will be held at Wynberg Girls’ High School on Saturday 6 July.

The theme is Christmas in July.

Chats du Cap Cat Club is a non- profit organisation with a passion to host championship cat shows in the smaller country towns around Cape Town.

The cat show promises to have cats of all kinds that will certainly attract Striking attention. From the more well-known breeds such as the Persian and Siamese to the more rare breeds such as Sphynx, Bengals and even the Lykoi “the werewolf cat” will be on show.

There will be breeds such as Burmese, Devon Rex, Abyssinians, Ragdolls, Orientals, Bambino, Elf, Main Coons and many more on show including domestic cats.

There are different categories from kitten category, three to six months of age, junior category, six to 10 months of age and then the adult classes which is further divided into Champion, SA Grand Champion, SA Double Grand Champion, SA Triple Grand Champion, Supreme Champion to Triple Supreme Champion.

Further, cats are divided into three main categories neuter, adult and kitten.

According to the event organis-

a pose at one of the shows. er, Leonard Ferreira, all the cats will be competing for international titles and will be judged according to each breed’s specific standard as set by the World Cat Federation (WCF).

“The cats are judged by experienced qualified judges, some of the judges have vast international experience and have judged all over the world. Our judges come from Cape Town and there will be two judges from Gauteng.

Over and above the international titles awarded to the cats that meet the breed specific standard, there are great prizes to be won by the official show sponsor, Hills Transforming Lives,” he says.

Ferreira says many people do not realise that there are specific breeds of cats and their aim is to introduce the different breeds of cats to both the local residents of Cape Town as well as the smaller

towns around Cape Town.

“Chats du Cap has hosted numerous cat shows over the years in towns such as Franschoek, Robertson, George and Darling as part of the Spring Festival in September.

“We have recently been invited by the Swellendam Agricultural Show committee to host cat shows as part of their show programme.

“The response at all the shows has been astounding. In July 2018 we hosted a cat show in Diep River which was a tremendous success with plenty of interest from the cat fancy.”

Chats du Cap also invited The Emma Animal Rescue Society (TEARS) to be part of the show.

They will bring some cats up for adoption.

“Over and above the serious business of showing and the competitive nature of our exhibitors, it is great fun where like-minded people with a common passion are gathered together sharing their cat-related experiences. What makes cat showing so worthwhile is seeing families getting involved, youngsters showing their much-beloved kitty and parents supporting their children,” he says.

Entry fee is R20 and children under 12 are free of charge.

She said her team consists of Jamie Gideon, Toni Erasmus, Kasheefa Meyer, Claren Oliver, Thembela Mbatha and Charles Ilunga. “My team and I decided on Ubuntu House as our choice of organisation as we respect the work that they do,” she said. “Our aim is to also raise funds for Ubuntu House as well as

seek donations for daily consumables that are needed for the babies.

“We are looking for donations such as baby foods, toiletries and clothing items. The winter drive is important to us as we would like to collect as many items as possible to support Ubuntu House and be able to lessen their load. We would like to ensure that the babies at Ubuntu House are kept warm and healthy during these winter months.”

Barnyard musical marathon sure to be a hit DESIRÉE RORKE @dezzierorke A two-hour musical marathon theatre performance of foot-stomping, gyrating and finger-clicking songs are what audiences can expect with Barnyard production 101 Hits.

A 10-piece cast of musicians, dancers and singers take the audience on a musical journey from the origins of rock, pop and

disco during the 60s, 70s and 80s right through to millennial whoop. Highlights include Maroon 5, The Chainsmokers, Bruce Springsteen, Neil Diamond, with one especially memorable climax being the special tribute to proudly South African music, featuring Evoid, Johny Clegg, Mandoza and many more. The show will keep you rocking from beginning to end with tributes to many artists, not to mention a 20song dance-craze party medley.

W

êreldwyd sterf een uit elke 10 mense jaarliks aan ’n beroerte, wat dit die tweede grootste oorsaak van sterftes maak.

Diegene wat dit oorleef, se beweeglikheid word dikwels belemmer en hulle sukkel om daaglikse take wat ’n mens dikwels as vanselfsprekend beskou, te verrig.

Aangesien hulle lewenslange ondersteuning nodig het wat baie duur kan wees, is dit belangrik om hulle te help om fisieke aktiwiteite op hul eie te verrig omdat dit hul lewensgehalte en hul vermoë om alledaagse take self te verrig, sal verbeter.

“Een manier om dit te bereik is deur sensories-motoriese oefeninge wat funksionele herstel by chroniese beroertepasiënte kan aanhelp en hul brein se vermoë om te herorganiseer in reaksie op die sensoriese insette, ondervinding en leer, kan verbeter,” sê dr. Tania Zastron, wat onlangs haar doktorsgraad in sportwetenskap aan die Universiteit Stellenbosch (US) behaal het.

Zastron het as deel van haar navorsing ’n kostedoeltreffende en eenvoudige taakspesifieke agt-week sensories-motoriese opleidingsprogram (SMO) ontwikkel om te bepaal of oefening die samehangende krag tussen verskillende geaffekteerde dele van die brein, asook funksionele herstel by chroniese beroertepasiënte kan verbeter.

Sy wys daarop dat uit die 71 mans en vroue wat genader is om aan die studie deel te neem, slegs 22 aan die volgende insluitingskriteria voldoen het: hulle moes 18 jaar en ouer wees; moes ses maande of meer voor die intervensie ’n beroerte (kroniese beroerte) gehad het; moes hul balans in ’n staande posisie vir 30 sekondes kon hou; moes sonder ondersteuning sewe meter kon loop; en toestemming van ’n dokter kry om aan die studie deel te neem. Die 22 mans en vroue met ’n gemiddelde ouderdom van 70 jaar het drie 45- tot 60-minute sessies per week oor die agt-weke tydperk voltooi.

Zastron het hulle in twee groepe verdeel, naamlik ’n SMO-en ’n aandag-gelyke kontrolegroep (KON). Die KON-groep is gebruik om te verseker dat die uitslae van die eksperimentele groep nie bloot was omdat hulle een of ander soort aandag gekry het nie. Die SMO het taak-spesifieke balansoefeninge voltooi wat gefokus het op die manipulasie van die liggaam se visuele stelsel, sowel as dele van die sensoriese stelsel wat met balans en ruimtelike oriëntering en die bewustelike persepsie van aanraking, drukking, pyn, temperatuur, posisie, beweging en vibrasie verband hou. Die KON-groep het vir dieselfde duur as die SMO-groep na opvoedkundige praatjies oor verskeie leefstylonderwerpe geluister.

Albei intervensies is deur ervare biokinetici by sentrums naby aan die deelnemers se huise aangebied.

Zastron sê deelnemers aan die SMOgroep het balansoefeninge soos kopknikke, rompleunings, strek, vang, gooi, enkelbeenstaan, stap, tandem-stap, gewigverskuiwing in treë, ratsheidslere, op die lyn stap, opstaan, stap met rigting en hindernisse, strek en stap, 360°-draaie en sit op ’n oefenbal en strek gedoen.

Dié tipe oefeninge is belangrik omdat ’n beroerte die balans binne die verskillende strukture in die brein ernstig versteur.

“Nadat die sentrale senuweestelsel beseer is, lê die herorganisasie van die brein die grondslag vir motoriese leer, die aanleer van nuwe vaardighede, sowel as vir funksionele herstel.”

Volgens Zastron het haar navorsing bewys dat die SMO-programme inderdaadwerk. “Deelnemers het verbeterde posturale wieg of balans getoon wanneer hulle met oop oë op ’n skuimrubbermat gestaan het, verminderde somatosensoriese afhanklikheid, verbeterde draaivermoë terwyl hulle stap, asook verbeterde waarneembare fisieke en sosiale funksionering. Hul vrees vir val het ook drasties afgeneem.

SLICE OF LIFE

Taxi’s deel van die ekonomie Die laaste paar weke het die gesprek oor taxi’s weer opgevlam ná ’n sanger sy misnoë op Facebook daaroor uitgespreek het. Een van sy argumente is dat verkeerspolisie meer tyd daaraan spandeer om halfbesope bestuurders aan te keer eerder as om, na sy mening, op die groter taxi-probleem te fokus.

Nou as jy in Suid-Afrika woon dan het jy ’n mening oor taxi’s. Dit hang net af aan watter kant van die argument jy staan.

My bakkie dreig reeds ’n geruime tyd om my iewers langs die pad te los en verlede week is hierdie dreigement volbring. Die gevolg was ek moes noodgedwonge van openbare vervoer, spesifiek taxi’s, gebruik maak om by die werk te kom.

Toe ek uit Namakwaland in die Kaap kom was my eerste kennismaking met ’n taxi een wat ’n blywende indruk op my gelaat het. Terwyl ek langs die pad staan en wag het, het ’n taxi kom stilhou en die glydeur-operateur, op die vlakte as guardjie bekend, met deur en al uitgeklim. Jip, hy het die deur afgehaak, dit op die sypaadjie neergesit en my beveel om in te klim. Daarna het hy dit weer ingehaak en die taxi het vertrek, dood normaal.

Wanneer jy ’n ryding het vergeet jy baie keer dat daar miljoene mense is wat nie die voorreg het nie.

Jy kan voor jou deur in die motor spring, ry waar wil jy wil wees en weer terugkeer wanneer jy wil. Vir miljoene mense in Suid-Afrika is dit nie die geval nie. Nie net kan hulle nie hul eie motors bekostig nie, maar in meeste gevalle sukkel hulle om taxi-geld te kan betaal.

My gedwonge taxi-reis het my weer aan die dink gesit. Die taxibedryf het só ’n swak naam dat daar gewens word hulle kan net die van die paaie af verdwyn.

Maar as mens dieper kyk sal jy besef dat sou die taxi’s van die paaie afgehaal word, die ekonomie ’n groot knou kan kry of selfs in duie stort.

Ek lees in Suid-Afrika is daar tans meer as 250 000 taxi’s op die paaie, wat daagliks nagenoeg 15 miljoen mense vervoer.

Taxi’s vorm die grootste deel van Suid-Afrika se vervoerstelsel met ’n 60% sny van die koek. Een taxi kan tot R450 000 per jaar vir die eienaar in. Die Suid-Afrikaanse Nasionale Taxi-raad het verlede jaar bekend gemaak dat die bedryf R90 miljard per jaar genereer.

Hierdie is verstommende syfers, veral gegewe dat taxi’s nog tot 1987 onwettig was. Taxi-eienaars is oorwegend swart, dus moet die bedryf gesien word as ’n rigtingwyser vir hoe swartmense self volhoubare ekonomië kan vestig en welvaart skep.

Mens moet erken daar is baie uitdagings in die bedryf. Onpadwaardige voertuie, bestuurders wat geen of min agting het vir verkeersreëls en gevegte oor roetes.

Taxi’s is glo verantwoordelik vir tot 70 000 ongelukke per jaar. ’n Ander kwelpunt is dat taxi’s meestal op ’n kontantbasis bedryf word en dit dus moeilik is om akkurate inkomste en belasbaarheid te bepaal.

Eerder as om taxi’s van ons paaie af weg te wens, moet ons die regering druk om strenger regulering op die bedryf toe te pas en dalk swaarder boetes oplê. Ek het nie die antwoorde nie, maar ek is seker iemand het en sal daarmee vorendag kom.

Maar intussen moet jy vanoggend die taxibedryf bedank as jou personeel, hetsy ’n huis-of tuinwerker, by die werk opgedaag het. – Brenden Ruiter

AVRIL FILLIES Eersterivier

Beriggewing in twyfel getrek Ek was by die studio toe ek boodskappe van vriende kry wat sê ek moet die TygerBurger lees en ná ek dit (“Sanger in die sop oor FB-flater”, TygerBurger, 19 Junie) gelees het, het ek besef dat mense die indruk gaan kry dat ek bestuur onder die invloed goedpraat en was ek genoodsaak om my punt te stel, aangesien so iets my reputasie lelik kan skaad.

Ek het regtig lank gedink oor my plasing want ek wou my punt stel sonder om TygerBurger in ’n swak lig te stel.

Net ’n voorbeeld: John Bond, wie se dogter tragies voor hul huis doodgery is deur iemand wat in hul straat woon en dronk bestuur het, het ’n plakkaat op hul

Facebook-blad, BADD, geplaas wat lui dat “Jou aanhangers sterf weens dronkbestuur” met die berig en ’n foto van my en hul dogtertjie destyds by ’n vertoning. Dank Vader die mense het gelukkig tóé al my kant van die storie op Facebook gelees en hom reggehelp.

Ek het ook vir hom en sy vrou uit respek uit gekontak want ek volg hul storie al van begin af en ek het al baie lang trane gehuil as ek John se plasings op Facebook lees oor hoe hard hy baklei vir geregtigheid vir hul dogter se tragiese dood en ek het ook al baie vir hulle gebid vir krag, vertroosting en dat geregtigheid sal geskied.

Ek glo ná my plasing is dit duidelik dat ek daardie aand maar net gesê het wat op almal se harte lê en dat almal moeg en siek en sat is vir taxi’s wat daagliks ons lewens in gevaar stel en ry net soos hul wil met geen verkeersbeamptes in sig wanneer dit saak maak in besige verkeerstye nie.

My vrou is net in hierdie jaar al twee keer deur taxi’s op pad werk toe van die pad af gery, asook deur hulle gevloek en gedreig as sy nie gou genoeg vir hul pad gee nie.

Die plasing op my Facebookblad is al deur meer as 50 000 mense gelees en ek kry dieselfde reaksie op my Facebookprofiele wat ’n duidelike aanduiding is van hoe moeg almal al is vir die taxi’s wat daagliks “Mad Max” op ons paaie speel.

Ons kort sigbaarheid in besige verkeerstye waar taxi’s wat die wet oortree dadelik vasgevat word maar dit sien mens amper nooit nie maar op ’n Vrydagaand is daar skielik 16 verkeersvoertuie beskikbaar vir ’n padblokkade in Brackenfell!

Hulle kon met daai voertuie en mannekrag drie padblokkades in drie verskillende areas hou en dalk nie net in

’n area soos Brackenfell wat ’n sagte teikengroep van wetsgehoorsame padgerbruikers is.

R20m for a bridge, non for sewage?

This page (“Sewage infrastructure under increasing stress”, TygerBurger, 26 June) is a must read for every Capetonian! And in the first paragraph we already find out about this council’s priorities: “... the current budget constraints ... made it impossible to replace infrastructure quick enough ...”

But we see it fit to spend R20m on the Wood Bridge at Woodbridge Island. Lets pump it raw into the sea, nobody will notice. I’ve heard similar stories before about Eskom –

you know the one that has no money to maintain its power stations that were built to supply our electricity, but has lots of debt. Because when they had the money they pocketed it paying huge bonuses to all those “connected” ones.

PETER SMULIK Email

Confusion and frustration caused For some time now I have been writing that the City does not understand proper accounting concepts and budgetary presentation which seems to have been echoed by the Auditor General (“Is the City profiting from water?”, TygerBurger, 26 June).

This failure makes any attempt to understand results very difficult and merely causes confusion and frustration and must throw doubt on the ability and competency of the Mayco member for finance.

There is no disputing the need for subsidising the poor, but it is the recording and presenting of these impacts that must be regularised.

In addition, the cross-subsidisation factor contained in the water tariff must be transparent and visible on all consumer accounts.

This subsidisation must not be included in normal water revenue but shown against the cost of such subsidised consumption.

Similarly, with write-offs for bad debts – this needs to be reflected against an initial provision and not related to normal revenue.

Including both of these factors in normal water revenue with subsequent removal as above is the cause of confusion and should be eliminated.

Assistance for street people during winter RICHARD ROBERTS @richardjohn_rj With the winter months upon us, more is being done to assist vulnerable homeless men and women, who find themselves without a roof over their heads.

Zahid Badroodien, Mayco member for community services and health, told TygerBurger last week that the City is currently assisting 16 night shelters by increasing temporary mattrass spaces by 247, to help accommodate additional street people during the winter months. It forms part of the City’s annual Winter Readiness Programme.

Badroodien says the City’s Street People Reintegration Unit is also aiding street people by helping them get back on their feet.

The unit offers social assistance to street people by helping them obtain identification cards, and to get social grants. It also helps them to relocate back to the place of origin, reunites them with their families and offers them access to substance abuse rehabilitation programmes, Badroodien says.

The unit also helps place street people at shelters, and gives them access to the Expanded Public Works Programme (EPWP) for employment opportunities.

Esther Lewis, spokesperson for the Western Cape department of social development, said the department also supports street people by funding 27 shelters across the province. This equates to about 1 500 bed spaces, Lewis says. “The department reunified 700 people with their families in the last financial year,” Lewis says.

A guide to exploring Blouberg’s flora AVRIL FILLIES

F

lora lovers are encouraged to explore the Blouberg area after Prof Eugene Moll of the University of the Western Cape (UWC) reviewed the flower guide for novices, Coastal Walk Flower Guide in veld and flora.

The book is written by Kay Loubser, Petra Broddle and Jan Wicht and the professional layout done by Karen Venter.

Wicht is from Durbanville and the others from Blouberg.

Moll is a professor in the department of biodiversity and conservation biology at the UWC in Bellville.

The Blouberg Conservation Area (BCA) is an active volunteer organisation which engages in nature conservation and historical findings where the Battle of Blaauwberg was fought.

The book was compiled by a group of citizen botanists, known as Custodians of Rare and Endangered Wildflowers (Crew) and were approached by the BCA to develop a flower guide for novices in

the region.

This is the second edition of the guide and Crew were joined by a professional botanist, Petra Boddle.

The Cape Flats Dune Strandveld vegetation type that is found in Blouberg is fast becoming endangered and through the book that is on sale for R100 they hope to make people aware of more types of indigenous plants. The monthly guided walks on a 4 km trail at Eerste Steen are very popular.

The booklet was launched at the end of 2017 by the BCA at their clubhouse. Being the second edition of the book it may inspire other conservation groups to do something similar.

The book is on sale at Starke Ayres in Sunningdale, Stodels in Milnerton, Plants on Six in Melkbos and the authors.

Conservation students are in touch with Crew members on a regular basis and are aware of the booklet. It is good enough for study material but it covers only a small area.

The time-frame to write a booklet like this is more than a year of constant monitoring since the vegetation changes every season.

In his review Moll said that the booklet covers half the species (96) recorded on the trail, all in full colour and arranged by flower colour for easy use. There is also an index of local common names, flowering times of the plants are also included, plus a map of the 4.4 km walk and a guide to the area’s geology.

You can join the guided coastal walk on the first Saturday of each month from April to November.

Call Kay on 072 428 4488 or Petra on 079 776 3701 for more information.

Three boys from Salberau in Elsies River are on a mission to start a career in freestyle football as they have mastered the skill of ball control.

The trio, Aidan Jacobs (19) and brothers Emilio (16) and Shane Namuhuja (10) spend hours in Rocky Close enhancing their skill.

A video of the brothers went viral last week.

their expertise at ball handling.

“Freestyle football gives me the freedom to do anything I want with the ball,” says Emilio.

He started practicing in 2016 after his friend, Aidan, showed him a few tricks.

“I was very impressed with what Aidan showed me so I asked him to teach me. Since then we’ve been practicing together.

Emilio is currently completing his GED at PaperLeaf Academy in Goodwood.

“My baby brother, Shane, joined us in practicing and now this has become a hobby.

I’d like to one day open a freestyle academy for younger children,” says Emilio.

Aidan says he started playing soccer at the age of 10, but only grew an interest in freestyle football in 2016 after seeing a video on YouTube.

“I at least try to practice new tricks about five hours a day and would like to later pursue this as a career. With freestyle football it’s just you and the ball which makes it a lot of fun,” says Aidan.

Shane, who was seven when he started freestyle football, says he was inspired by both his brother, Emilio, and Aidan.

“When I was seven-years-old I practiced so much until I got a trick right which I saw my brother and Aidan do. When I saw them I was so excited to show-off what I had learned.”

His mother, Samantha Namuhuja, says she finds it inspiring to see the boys grow in their passion for freestyle football, especially knowing that they built their skill from the ground up.

“To see them figuring it out by themselves and working hard on their passion together daily makes me feel truly blessed. I wouldn’t say that it so much changed them because they have always been consistent in their values and character, but it taught them consistency and teamwork and to never give up. It is not only encouraging, them living their passion, but how they share that with everyone around them in the street. They are creating a hopeful environment.”

Shane Namuhuja says he was inspired by his brother, Emilio, and Aidan to practice freestyle football.

Life behind bars in an overcrowded cell TARRYN-LEIGH SOLOMONS @tarryns07

W

hen the cell door gets locked at 15:00, inmates are only able to get a breath of fresh air at 06:00 the following morning. What happens in that cell for those 15 hours is beyond anyone’s imagination.

TygerBurger visited Pollsmoor Prison in Tokai last week, along with sister publication People’s Post and a group of learners from Ocean View High School.

Upon entering Medium C, which is a release centre accommodating offenders with minor or petty crimes with a prison sentence of under 24 months, inmates were seen polishing the floor with a cloth.

After walking through the corridors of Medium C, visitors were taken to a courtyard where inmates dressed in orange and white jumpsuits roamed about. Those wearing white jumpsuits cook meals daily.

A 22-year-old inmate from Valhalla Park, who was convicted of murder, chatted to the newspaper from his cell. The department of correctional services requested that the man’s name not be published. “In December last year, my friends and I went clubbing and drinking in Long Street. There was a man who picked a fight with us then I ended up stabbing him in his neck with a broken beer bottle.

“I regret doing it because it’s not nice to be here,” said the man who admitted he was a member of the 28s gang in Bishop Lavis.

He was previously convicted for the possession of drugs. “This is my third time at Pollsmoor Prison. The other times I was arrested for drugs. It’s very full in the cells

which makes it difficult to be here. When I am released in September, I’m going to change my life.”

Spokesperson for Pollsmoor Prison, Lewies Davids, said the prison has the capacity to accommodate 4 396, but the current total for Thursday 27 June was 7 049. “Of the 7 049, we have about 700 women who are incarcerated in the Female Centre. Pollsmoor has five correctional centres which include Medium A, Medium B, Medium C, Remand Detention Centre and the Female Centre.

We are currently 160% overcrowded.”

Davids broke down the numbers by explaining that a cell which can accommodate 36 inmates, is actually occupied by about 90 prisoners.

“Correctional Services has a structured daily programme in place, depending on the security classification of an offender. We believe that an offender should be incarcerated under humane conditions in line with the international standards of detention,” added Davids.

He explained more about what the Medium C centre is about: “This is a release centre with offenders who have committed minor or petty crimes with a prison sentence under 24 months. Also when an offender has served a longer sentence, closer upon his release date, he will be placed at such a centre.

Medium C is a medium classified correctional centre, which means that most of the offenders at this centre belong to the work groups or work spans at Pollsmoor.

These offenders will go out daily under the supervision of a designated official and work in the agricultural fields, maintenance and mechanical workshops, gardens and the cafeteria.”

A

n Eerste River athlete aims to inspire his community through his achievements and positive attitude.

Rowhaldo Ratz (21) from Eerste River is competing in the World Student Games in Italy from today (Wednesday 3 July) to Wednesday 17 July.

Ratz says his coach of 10 years, Johannes Kamfer, believed in him. “The objective of my coach is not for us to just achieve our personal goals, but also to spread a positive message in our community.”

Ratz says their achievements don’t mean anything if it doesn’t touch the lives of people in their communities. “We try to make a difference and we want the youth to see that there are better things to life than what’s happening around us.”

The long-distance athlete, who will compete in the 5 000m on Thursday 11 and Saturday 13 July, says he has always wanted to be part of the team. “It has been my goal to represent South Africa at the games and I see this competition as a stepping stone to the Olympics. The qualifying time for the 5 000m was 14 minutes, but he completed the race in 13 minutes 56 seconds which was a personal best for him.

Ratz, who suffered an ITB injury (sprained quad) last year, says he worked hard to be where he is today so his inclusion in the team is a blessing. “This is like the mini-

He says after the injury he had a tough time, so him and his coach had to change their approach. “I had to sacrifice a lot of things.

I trained mornings and afternoons and had gym training sessions as well.” He says the different training regime made him focus on

himself. “I had to sleep earlier at night, I didn’t have a social life. I had to make sacrifices to get to this point.”

Ratz previously attended Stratford Primary School and then DF Malan High School.

very difficult to balance both studying and training but time management is key.

“Sometimes I have class, then a break, then I have to train during the break and then attend class again.

“My studies and training are equally important to me. You have to get that balance perfect.”

He says his parents are proud of him especially after the difficult year he had. “My parents always supported me and believed in me. They knew I had the potential and capability and I appreciate that a lot.”

Ratz says he is thankful for his friends and family who are his support system and contributed to where he is today. “I had to pick myself up and work towards this goal that I set for myself.”

Ratz made the World Cross Country team in 2015 and competed in China. In 2016 he was selected for the African Cross Country team and competed in the championships in Cameroon and last year he competed in the World Student Cross Country Championship in Switzerland. He says he was very proud because the team won gold and he was placed 37th. “This year I’m aiming for a position between third and fifth and hoping for the best.” He says the last week of training is crucial and he will focus on building up speed, intense speed and endurance.

“My coach and I want to try and make a difference in the community. Not just through our sport but through education too.”

SUPERLIGA-RUGBY: DURBIES TWEEDE OP PUNTELEER

Durbell struikel tuis SAREL BURGER

D

urbanville-Bellville se Superliga-rugbyspan het Saterdag 29 Junie met sy naelskraapse nederlaag ’n gulde geleentheid laat glip om die voortou op die huidige punteleer te neem.

Maar hoe en waarom Durbell ’n nederlaag van 29-31 in hierdie belangrike wedstryd teen Valsbaai op die lyf geloop het, sal net die Durbies-spelers weet – daardie einste manne wat halfpad deur die wedstryd gans en al in beheer van sake was en met die

draaislag ’n wen-voorsprong van 26-10 geniet het. Met ’n blink vertoning deur die voorhoede, asook goeie samespel en knap afronding van bewegings was Durbell die besoekers aanvanklik heeltemal oor. Maar toe kom die wiele in die tweede helfte af.

Die Durbies lê nou met 34 punte derde op die punteleer, kort op die hakke van Valsbaai en Universiteit Kaapstad (albei 36).

Unie-Milnerton (30) wat in die jongste reeks wedstryde ’n loslootjie gehad het, is vierde.

Tygerberg-klub het Saterdag sy goeie spelpeil voortgesit en Primrose ’n loesing van

46-6 toegedien, terwyl Brackenfell met 35-10 te sterk was vir Noordelikes-Tygerberg.

In die B-afdeling van die Superliga het Kuilsrivier (48-12 t Helderberg) en Bellville (31-27 t Belhar) hul aanspraak op die titel behou. Albei spanne het nou 32 punte ná 7 wedstryde en blaas in die nek van Franschhoek (37 punte) die voorloper op die punteleer wat egter reeds nege wedstryde agter die blad het. Ook in die C-afdeling het sake goed verloop vir die meeste spanne van die Tygerbergstreek. Hands & Heart is ná sy sege van 24-15 oor Blue Stars steeds die voorloper op

die punteleer, terwyl Scottsdene (48-12 t Manenberg) en Elsiesrivier (29-15 t Young Wesleys) ook stem dikgemaak het. Kraaifonteinklub het egter met 24-52 ’n bloutjie geloop teen Langa.

Die komende naweek se program (tuisspan eerste) is: Noordelikes-Tygerberg t Primrose, Tygerberg-klub t Unie-Milnerton, Schotsche Kloof/Walmer t Durbanville-Bellville, Goodwood t Franschhoek, Collegians t Kuilsrivier, St. Geirge t Bellville, Scottsdene t Strand United, Kraaifontein t Pniël Villagers, Elsiesrivier t Blue Stars.

Action continues at Killarney Just 14 days after midwinter, the second half of the 2019 motorsport season at Killarney International Raceway gets underway with the Independence Day Power Series sponsored by Wingfield Motors on Saturday.

It’s themed, of course, for the national day of the United States of America, the Fourth of July, with lots of red, white and blue – and the sound of big American V8 engines in many of the categories.

Once again the programme is full, with races for the Mikes Place Clubman Saloons, Burly Pro GTi Challenge, Millstock Classic and Shatterfix Fine Cars, V8 Masters and Makita Supercars, Pirelli Sports and GT Cars and Formula Libre Single-seaters.

Fans of two-wheeled action will be treated to three classes of motorcycle races: the Powersport formula races, the Clubmans ‘run wot ya brung’ series and the 280km/h RST Superbikes, lapping in a fraction over 70 seconds and cornering at lean angles that seemingly redefine the laws of physics.

The Mikes Place Clubman Saloons have again attracted the largest field with 43 entries, ranging from Danie van Niekerk’s hissing, snarling Wingfield Motors E36 to a couple of 1.8 litre Golf Mk1s at the other end of the pack – but everybody has someone to race with and the dicing will be intense throughout the field.

The Burly Pro GTi Challenge is, of course, all about front-wheel drive VW power; the cars are very evenly matched and the racing is robust, to put it politely. Look for Nian du Toit (Allied Fibreglass Jetta 3 2L) and Christopher Swart (Village Paint and Hardware

Jetta 2 2L) to set the pace.

The big question in the Millstock Classic and Shatterfix Fine Car races is who will keep Franco Donadio and the all-conquering Harkers Escort honest – and in the absence of an entry from Charles Arton (Datsun 240Z), who narrowly beat Donadio last time out it will be up to Louis Powell and the Hoosier Escort to take the fight to Donadio.

With 27 entries this will be another crowded race; expect action throughout the field, especially among the leading Fine Cars, where Arnold Lambert (VW Jetta) and Robert Toscano (Techoparts MX5) will be at it again, taking up where they left off at the last meeting – less than a second apart.

For many fans, the rumble of the big-inch Ford engines in the V8 masters will be the highlight of this Independence Day meeting.

This is likely to come down to a shootout between Fabio Tafani, Richard Schreuder and Sean Moore – but don’t ask us to predict the order.

Craig Jarvis’ Maui Motorhomes Ginetta G57 is in a class of its own in Pirelli Sports and GT racing, but well worth seeing for the incredible speeds it achieves – it holds the ultimate lap record at Killarney International Raceway with a time of 1m 06.745sec – while the best of the rest are likely to be Steve Humble in the Harp Mallock 14B and Maarten Prins’ Porsche GT3 Cup. The same situation applies in the openwheeler Formula Libre races, with Dee-Jay Booysen starting as clear favourite in his Dico RM08. There is likely, however, to be a major dogfight for second between Sean le

Whose ball is it?

Capricorn won 35-23.

Hayden Jonas and the WP Motors YZF R1 have won every RST Suzuki South Superbike race at Killarney so far this season, while arch-rival Ronald Slamet (P/M Motorsport R1) has been always in the frame but never a winner. Will this be the day when he breaks Jonas’ winning streak, or will Trevor Westman on the Mad Macs ZX-10R finally deliver on the potential that’s always there for another monumental win? You’ll just have to be there to see for yourself.

Kewyn Snyman set a new lap record for 600cc motorcycles of 1min 12.596sec last time out on the Hillbilly R6 – expect to see him mixing it a with the second tier of litre-class bikes. Also in the frame, ready to pounce should Snyman make the slightest error, will be Jared Schultz on the ASAP World R6.

Lubabalo Ntisana scored an epic maiden win on the LB Autos ZX-10R in the Clubman Class at the previous round; get ready for a three-way fight – on identical machines! – with Wayne Arendse (Kawasaki ZX-10R) and Sean Mackrill (GFP Lighting ZX-10R). Add to that a dark horse in the shape of veteran ‘Danie van Killarney’ Maritz, temporarily out of retirement on the Suzuki Pre-Sling with which he won the 1987 Western Province championship, and you have the makings of a thriller.

Access to the pits paddock is free. The Fan Walk brings spectators down onto the circuit during the lunch break to meet the competitors in one of the categories. Gates open at 07:30 and racing begins at 10:00.

Siyanda Sibango (Kraaifontein) was victorious in the Titan physique pro division.
