VEREENIGING. - After acquiring and managing the Riviera on Vaal Hotel and Country Club since 2003, the owners have decided to enter into a long term lease agreement with the well established group, BON Hotels. As of April 3 this year, the Riviera on Vaal Hotel is operated by BON Hotels. The adjacent Riviera on Vaal Country Club and Zorg-
vliet Spa will remain under the owner’s management. Zorgvliet Spa recently moved its location, now situated at the Riviera on Vaal Country Club. A new Zorgvliet Spa branch at Maccauvlei on Vaal has also recently opened its doors. “We were very fortunate that BON Hotels employed the majority of the hotel’s current
staff,” says Melanie van Schalkwyk, co-owner of the Riviera on Vaal Hotel & Country Club and owner of Zorgvliet Spa. “I am very excited about this new beginning for Riviera on Vaal Hotel, as BON Hotels will certainly add value to our property in the years to come.” The hotel will be re-named, BON Hotel Riviera on Vaal.
Drug dealer and ‘runner’ behind bars VANDERBIJLPARK. - Months of intensive undercover work and the dedication of members from the SAPS Organised Crime Unit led to the arrest and successful conviction of a well-known drug dealer and his “runner.” Investigating officer D/W/O Morné Grobler and his colleagues received information in July last year regarding a drug dealer George Augustine Clarke (45) who was allegedly dealing in Methcathinone. This drug, also known as CAT, is an undesirable dependence-producing drug and therefore listed in the Drugs and Drug Trafficking Act, Act 140 of 1992. George Clarke and his 17-year-old nephew were selling drugs to the community of Ennerdale and Vaal Rand. The nephew worked as a “runner” for Clarke. The investigation continued and more evidence was gathered in order to take the investigation to the next level. The Organised Crime Unit successfully conducted two under-
cover operations during October 2013. Clarke sold 21 packets of CAT with an estimated street value of R2 000 to undercover agents during this period. It was during the second operation that he was arrested. Clarke’s nephew was arrested four days later. During the arrest another 34 packets of CAT with a street value of R3 400 was found in their possession. The Financial and Asset Forfeiture Investigating Unit seized a BMW valued at R40 000 and R2 980 in cash that belonged to George Clarke. Both suspects faced charges relating to dealing in illegal substances. On April 3 both suspects were convicted and sentenced. George Clarke was sentenced in the Vereeniging Magistrates Court to eight years in prison plus a further five years suspended for five years. Clarke’s nephew received a twoyear compulsory residence term at Bosasa
Youth Detention Centre in Krugersdorp. This sentence should serve as a stern warning to drug dealers that crime doesn’t pay. “The police will leave no stone unturned in tracing and arresting criminals,” says media liaison officer Warrant Officer Kinnie Steyn. The police urge the community to come forward with information to get criminals off the streets. Drugs and cash seized in the undercover operations which led to the successful ar rest and conviction of a drug dealer.

VANDERBIJLPARK. - Air Products het in Augustus verlede jaar met die internasionale filantropiese organisasie, Inmed, saamgespan om die grootste eenheid wat tot dusver in Suid-Afrika ontwikkel is by die Hoër Tegniese Skool Carel de Wet in Vanderbijlpark van stapel te stuur. HTS Carel de Wet is die eerste skool in die land wat die Inmed-akwaponiese projek as deel van ’n landbouopleidingsprogram gebruik. Air Products South Africa het innoverend en volhoubaar te werk gegaan om sy verbintenis tot ’n beter toekoms deur middel van jeugontwikkeling in die land te bevestig. Die maatskappy korporatiewe sosiale belegging (KSB) behels ’n projek wat ’n innoverende en volhoubare boerderytegniek genaamd akwaponika gebruik om die landwye armoede te help verlig. Die akwaponiese stelsel pak ’n verskeidenheid uitdagings aan, insluitend swak grondgehalte en die waterskaarste. Verder maksimaliseer die stelsel ruimte tienvoudig in vergelyking met gewone saaiboerdery. Akwaponika is ’n intensiewe voedselproduk-

Sasol’s super abnormal load SASOLBURG. - After almost four weeks of travelling from Richards Bay, through various towns in South Africa, Sasol’s 344.5 ton wax reactor has reached its final destination on April 9. The reactor forms part of the wax expansion project in Sasolburg that will, on completion, double Sasol’s hard wax production in South Africa. Hard wax is a popular product used in several major industries and is a key ingredient in a number of unique applications such in printing inks and the sealing of cereal boxes and milk cartons. The load, classified as a super abnormal load, weighed 499 tons once loaded onto the trailer, and spanned 78m in length. It travelled at a speed of approximately 5 to 10km/h and was escorted by supporting crew, an ambulance and provincial and local traffic police. “Safety is of utmost importance to Sasol. We took strict precautionary measures to ensure no harmful incidents occurred en-route. On behalf of Sasol, I would like to thank the people in affected communities for their patience as
this important piece of equipment made its as Luedemann, managing irector, Sasol Wax. Hard wax has several uses. An important hard wax application is in hot melt adhesives (glue which is applied at high speed, for instance to seal cereal boxes or milk cartons). This is a rapidly growing application, especially in the developing world. An environmentally friendly application for hard wax is as an additive in bitumen used in road construction. This additive is patented by Sasol and sold as Sasobit™. It reduces the temperature at which the bitumen can be laid, thereby reducing emissions and greenhouse gases. The wax additive improves the resistance to deformation and cracking of the road surface. The product is also used in printing ink. Another important application is as an additive in the forming (extrusion) of PVC objects such as pipes or window frames. Lead based stabilisers in PVC are being phased out and hard wax is a critical component in the additives that are replacing the lead based product.
gruisgroeibeddings voed. Dit dien as ’n filter vir die water wat skoongemaak, geoksideer en in die vistenks teruggepomp word. Sedert die bekendstelling van die akwaponiese eenheid het die leerlinge die innoverende boerderytegniek in die praktyk leer gebruik, en het verlede week hul eerste groenteoes ingesamel. “Ons was opgewonde om te sien hoe die vrugte van ons arbeid deur verkope in wins omgesit word,” sê Gawie Richter, die hoof. Die skool bestuur altesaam ses groeibeddings wat tamaties, komkommers en groenrissies bevat. Die ander drie groeibeddings word vir opleiding gebruik. Die groente is aan die begin van Maart aangeplant en was gereed vir die”Eerste Oes-geleentheid” “Die leerlinge het waardevolle lesse met die stelsel geleer, veral dat voedsame kos met ’n bietjie water in ’n klein ruimte verbou kan word. Hulle het ook aspekte van die landbou-
ekonomie onder die knie gekry, byvoorbeeld om nuwe markte vir hulle produkte te identifiseer en dit te beskerm,” sê Richter. Mike Hellyar, die besturende direkteur van Air Products South Africa, verduidelik: “Voedselvoorsiening is werklik kommerwekkend, veral in die ekonomies agtergeblewe dele van ons land. Dit is van die uiterste belang dat kinders voedselproduksiemetodes aanleer wat toekomsgerig is, en dat volhoubare stelsels daarvoor ingespan word wat natuurlike hulpbronne help bewaar. Die nood van minderbevoorregte kinders lê ons na aan die hart en toe Inmed ons nader om met ’n projek te help wat ’n meer selfversorgende gemeenskap kon skep, het ons die geleentheid aangegryp,” sê Hellyar. “Die sukses van die projek beteken dat akwaponika nou by ons landbouleerders se kurrikulum ingesluit is,” sê hy.

Bomdreigement by hospitaal Carla du Plessis
VEREENIGING. - Tientalle pasiënte moes verlede Vrydag uit Vereeniging Mediclinic verwyder word nadat dié hospitaal ‘n bomdreigement ontvang het. Nooddienspersoneel wat op die toneel was, sê daar was oral pasiënte buite die hospitaal. Al die sale in die hospitaal van die kraamsaal tot by die intensiewe sorgeenheid is ontruim. Kaptein Fikile Funda, woordvoerder van Vereeniging SAPD sê die hospitaal het ‘n oproep van ‘n naamlose vrou, wat Engels praat, ont-
vang wat sê daar is ‘n bom op die perseel. Net na die oproep het personeel begin om die hospitaal te ontruim. Die polisie se hondeeenheid en bomeenheid is ontbied en die hospitaal is deursoek voordat pasiënte en personeel weer kon teruggaan. Volgens Selka-Ann Badenhorst is die veiligheid van Vereeniging Mediclinic se pasiënte eerste prioriteit en die standaard protokol en prosedures is gevolg om dadelik pasiënte van die perseel te verwyder. Die polisie ondersoek die saak.

M aart s eH ero-wenners Maart se Hero-wenners Jannie du Plessis
Die Maart-wenner van Car Hi-Fi Specialists in Vereeniging en MooiVaal Media se Herokompetisie is aangewys. Om jou lewe te gee om ander te red word beskou as die onbaatsugtigste daad. Sonder om te huiwer het twee mans heldhaftig probeer om ‘n elfjarige kind se lewe te red nadat hy deur ’n stroom water meegesleur is. Heinrich Boshoff (40) het egter sy lewe in dié poging prysgegee, terwyl Martin Nortjè (32) van Kempton Park suksesvol was. Heinrich Boshoff is die eerste persoon wat sedert die begin van die Hero-kompetisie ‘n postuum-wenner is. Sy vrou, Jaqueline Boshoff, en Martin Nortjé deel dus die prysgeld van R4 000. Heinrich het die betrokke Sondag besluit om hulle twee seuns saam met twee maats na die Erina Christelike-vakansie-oord te neem om te gaan visvang. Heinrich en sy twee seuns, Eugene (17) en Renier (13), asook Johan de Wet (12) en Herman de Wet (11) het vanaf die Erina Christelike-oord deur die rivier beweeg waar dit nie baie diep was nie, na die oorkant van die oewer. Hulle het begin hengel en Herman se hoek het vasgehaak, sowat ses meter van twee ander hengelaars, Martin Nortjé en Gus Mclennan. “Die seun is agter sy lyn aan wat vasgehaak het en toe het sy stok ook gebreek,” vertel Martin. Toe Herman egter in die stroom instap, het die water hom dadelik meegesleur. Martin het dadelik agter Herman aangeswem terwyl hy vir Heinrich op die wal geskree het. Heinrich het van die wal se kant af ingespring maar was in daardie stadium reeds agter Herman en Martin

wat toe vinnig in die stroom af is. Toe Martin vir Herman gekry het, was Heinrich reeds sowat 40 m van hulle af. Heinrich het skielik begin skree: “Help, help, ek het ‘n kramp.” Nadat hy drie keer opgekom het, het Heinrich onder die water verdwyn en Martin het hom nie weer gesien nie. Daar is by die toneel na Heinrich gesoek, maar sy lyk is eers Dinsdagoggend, twee dae na die verdrinking, by die brug oor die Barragepad gevind. * Lesers kan nou inskrywings vir die April Hero-kompetisie instuur. Onthou enige persoon of persone wat uit hul pad gegaan het om mens, dier en besittings te beskerm kan
in aanmerking kom vir die R4 000 prysgeld. Die SMS-wenner ontvang R500 en ‘n trekking word gemaak en een van die persone wat iemand genomineer het, kan ook ‘n bedrag van R500 wen. Al wat jy moet doen om iemand te nomineer is, stuur ‘n e-pos aan jannie.duplessis@media24.com met al die besonderhede, asook kontaknommers en ‘n foto van die persoon of persone.

Kommentaar
Doen meer om kruising te beveilig ‘n Hele paar lesers het Vaalweekblad die afgelope week ge-sms, geskakel of aan ons geskryf na aanleiding van ‘n berig oor die soveelste ongeluk by die Kruising van die Dood (die kruising van die Barrageweg met die R57) wat in verlede week se Vaalweekblad verskyn het, en voorstelle gemaak oor aksiestappe wat die gevaar vir motoriste kan verminder. Mnr. Peet Schabort, ‘n jarelange inwoner van die Vaaldriehoek, se brief in dié verband dien as vandeesweek se redaksionele kommentaar oor die aangeleentheid. Heelwat kan nog gedoen word om die kruising verder te beveilig. Die redes is as volg: Eerstens: Wanneer daar vanaf die Barrageweg uit ‘n oostelike rigting links gedraai word na Sasolburg (R57) is die glipweg se teeroppervlakte uiters ongelyk en dan somtyds vir lang tye vol slaggate. Dit veroorsaak dat jy die draai se oppervlakte moet dophou en dus is jou aandag verdeeld met verkeer van regs op die R57. Daar is nog sulke glipweë in die munisipale gebied wat in ‘n uiters swak toestand is. Tweedens: Uiteindelik was daar iemand wat wakker geword het en vanaf Sasolburg op die R57 is daar nou twee bane vir regs draai by die kruising met die Barrageweg in ‘n oostelike rigting. Wat die slimme egter vergeet het, is om sperstrepe vir die twee bane te verf vir die kurwe na regs. Wat nou gebeur, is dat verkeer in die regterbaan met die draaislag kan oorbeweeg na die lin-
kerbaan en sodoende ‘n ongeluk kan veroorsaak met verkeer in die linkerbaan. Inderdaad is daar motoriste wat dit onbewus of moedswillig doen, wat nie bewus is van die ander baan nie en dink dat jy aan sy linkerkant wil indruk. Wat die verf van die bane betref, geld dit ook vir dié wat regs draai vanuit die teenoorgestelde (noordelike) rigting van die R57. Die uiteindelike oplossing is om nog ‘n baan te bou deur ‘n gedeelte van die verkeerseiland te verwyder. Dan is daar onbelemmerde vloei vir twee bane verkeer reguit en twee bane na regs vanaf Sasolburg. Die enigste rede hoekom dit nie gedoen kan word nie is die ou storie van “ons het nie geld nie.” Sou geld dan meer werd wees as menselewens? Die antwoord is voor die hand liggend. Daar is nie lank gelede nie wel so ‘n ekstra baan gebou in Frikkie Meyerboulevard op die kruising met Verdi-en Macowenstraat in Vanderbijlpark. Derdens: Kameras was nog altyd ‘n uiters doeltreffende afskrikmiddel. As ek reg onthou, is dit egter gesteel kort na oprigting. Ek glo dat daar wel iewers kundiges is wat hierdie probleem sal kan oplos. Samevattend glo ek dat daar ‘n oplossing is vir die onnodige ongelukke by die Vaaldriehoek se gevaarlike kruisings. As ek as onopgeleide waarnemer die ooglopende tekortkominge kan sien, dan des te meer kan diegene wie se werk dit is en per slot van rekening ook nog daarvoor betaal word.
Wie kan dié wegholtrein stop? Pieter van die Vaaldriehoek skryf: Die vraag is nou of daar ‘n opposisie politieke party bestaan op wie se versoek die ANC ‘n enkele slaggat herstel het of verhoed het dat riool in die riviere beland, of dat ‘n stukkende straatlig herstel is?
Ek weet van geen sulke gevalle die afgelope vyf jaar nie. Is dit die moeite werd om jou kruisie op die spoorlyn te trek, terwyl die ANC soos ‘n wegholtrein weer aankom? Wat sê ons lesers?
Onderwysers sou dit ook anders wou hê M.N. skryf na aanleiding van “Blerrie vies” se klagte verlede week oor skolesport gedurende langnaweke: “Blerrie vies,” ek weet nie wie jy eintlik oor jou frustrasie rondom sport oor langnaweke moet aanspreek nie, maar ek weet wel dit is nie die onnies nie. Hulle wil, net soos ons almal, bitter graag ook hul langnaweke saam met hul gesinne deurbring. So ook saans wanneer daar een of ander aktiwiteit by die skool is waar hulle moet toesig hou of dit bywoon. Hulle het wel ‘n lewe en sou dit ook anders
wou hê, maar as daar vir hulle gesê word hulle sal daar wees en hul werk doen, het hulle ‘n ander keuse as om te gaan? Dit geld ook vir toere en vakansies wanneer hul eie gesinne sonder hulle moet klaarkom. So, as jy nou uitgevind het wie die eintlike persone is wat hieroor aangespreek moet word, want dis nie die onnies nie, doen dit vir ons asseblief. Ek is seker die onnies sal dit almal verwelkom en baie waardeer as hulle ook naweke tot hul eie beskikking het.

Stones pose great danger On January 13, while driving through Tshepiso, Andries Potgieter Boulevard, one of the municipal workers cutting the grass dislodged a stone which then broke my car window. Mr George Mollo, who was in charge of the contractors, said he would have the glass repaired, but then stopped answering my calls. He also ignored my repeated SMSs and WhatsApp messages. I had the window repaired and submitted a claim for R1 625 to Ms Selina Mokolopo of the Emfuleni Municipality, but when I phone Selina, she never picks up. She does not reply to my emails either. It is now more than three months later and still I have not been recompensed. I also think it is very irresponsible of the municipality to cut the grass without protective screens. What would happen if a person’s car window is open and a stone hits the driver against the head, causing an accident, death or injury. What if a child got hurt?
Porratown is gevaarlik Bekommerde inwoner kla: Porratown is ‘n gevaarlike gebied. Ons stop onlangs by ‘n winkel en nog voor ons uitklim, vra ‘n anderskleurige deur middel van handgebare of ons ‘n pakkie, so groot soos ‘n vuurhoudjiedosie, wil hê. Ons ignoreer hom en hy kom tot by ons motor en vra hardop of ons dagga of van die ander soek. Wat kan ek oorkom indien ek hom sou aanrand? Ons is albei twee vroue en ongeveer 60 jaar oud. Wie anders gaan ons help, indien dit weer sou gebeur? Die omstanders is elkeen op sy eie planeet so bedwelmd is hulle en hulle is van alle kleurgroepe. Ek sal maar paraat moet wees indien ek weer daarheen moet gaan, of van begeleiding gebruik maak.
Gee asseblief ‘n huis vir Worsie Hendrie Creser van Parys skryf: Asseblief iemand, neem vir Worsie hier by die DBV in Parys aan. Hy is so ’n pragtige swart reuntjie, een jaar oud, het nog nie ‘n huis gekry nie. Ek het twee hondjies waarvan ek een straatbrakkie aangeneem het. As ek maar net kon, sou ek Worsie ook aangeneem het. My hart bloei vir Worsie. Ek veg so hard vir ‘n liefdevolle huis vir hom. Bel my asseblief by 076 4139 727.

It’s election year again - reconsider your vote!
Die slaggat by ‘n besige kruising in Piet Retief blvd. in Vanderbijlpark wat net groter en groter geword het, is deur ‘n plaaslike inwoner herstel. Baie dankie aan die dame wat uit haar eie sak die gat probeer toemaak. Foto verskaf deur Natasha Wallace.
Correction regarding ‘dangerous weapons’ J.H, a weapon expert in the Vaal area, writes: With reference to the article “Dangerous weapons destroyed” in Vaalweekblad of April 2: Just a small correction: The AK47 is an assault rifle, not a “machine gun.” For those of us who served in the past, it’s the same as saying a VW Beetle is a “Porsche”; even though both cars are made by VW, and may look the same, there is quite a big difference between the two vehicles. The same applies to the AK47 and “machine guns.” The AK47 is a short, compact rifle firing a shortened version of a rifle cartridge, from a magazine that holds 30 rounds. It is capable of full automatic fire, but only for a short while as the barrel heats up very rapidly and then the weapon will jam. Also, the versions shown in the photo have folding wire stocks; these make it short and very handy in confined spaces like a house, but it becomes wildly inaccurate when fired on full auto on the battlefield. Most poorly trained troops use the “spray and pray” method of spraying bullets towards the target and praying / hoping that one or more will hit. Fitted with a more robust, fixed wooden or folding stock, it’s a useful weapon up to about 300 metres. To prevent the barrel from overheating and jamming the weapon, one fires in 2 or 3 round short bursts. On full auto, it becomes a bit uncontrollable for accurate fire. A real machine gun, on the other hand, is a totally different weapon. You get light MGs like the Bren (magazine
fed), our SS70, the FN Mag, the US M60, the Russian PDK, etc. These are belt-fed, with quick-change barrels and fitted with a Bi-pod for accurate supported fire. These fire full size rifle cartridges and far outrange the AK. Then there are the medium machine guns like the old British water-cooled Vickers, the US Browning 30 calibre, etc. These are crewserved weapons and have the ability to maintain a high rate of fire from 250 round linked belts. They are very heavy and chew up ammunition very fast. Then there are the heavy machine guns like the US Browning 50 calibre and the Russian “Doskia” 14,7 mm calibre. These fire large calibre ammunition with ranges of a few kilometres. They have a crew of three or more soldiers to operate it, and are now mostly found mounted on vehicles as the ammunition required is very heavy. The very heavy machine guns are the 20mm Gatling type of weapon with multiple rotating barrels with rates of fire of up to 100 rounds a second. One gets smaller Gatlings firing rifle cartridges but due to tremendous ammunition usage, they are almost all mounted in vehicles, aircraft or helicopter gunships. They are also mostly driven by an electric motor to rotate the barrelled action. I hope this information will be of use? It will enhance Vaalweekblad’s credibility when writing a story, and is in itself a fascinating subject. * Very interesting indeed! We appreciate the information and correct facts. Ed.
Munisipale rekening groot probleem Ontevrede kragverbruiker skryf: Die skrywe van die persoon wat skryf oor die krag wat afgesit moet word as ‘n mens nie betaal nie, verwys. Desember kon ek nie betaal nie, omdat ek ‘n enkelouer is. Die onderneming waarvoor ek werk, was toe, so ek het net geld gekry vir die dae wat ek gewerk het. Toe ek einde Desember my elektrisiteitsrekening kry, het die bedrag gespring van
R450 na R3 500. Ek het gaan kla, maar hulle het gesê ek het nie betaal nie, so ek betaal dus rente en dat daar ook fout is met my waterlesing. Hoe maak ek wat nie meer kan betaal nie? Wil die munisipaliteit regtig hê dat ek en my twee kinders in die donker moet wees? Wees genadig, almal het nie geld nie. Ek probeer, maar kan ook net soveel tap uit my klip.
Graham Clouston of Vanderbijlpark writes: Political freedom without discipline is a ramp for all South Africans. The present government for the last decade has been causing catastrophic ecological degradation as it no can no longer control violence, rampant corruption, sexual abuse, murders, violent protests, abuse of power, service delivery, inability to generate job opportunities, poor hospital services, nepotism, poor learner education, a corrupt police force and much more. These present unscrupulous politicians have been making a mockery of the justice system, rampant corruption continues unchecked, and there are deep ideology-differences in the party. They are failing the next generation who will inherit a country robbed of its rich potential. All responsible SA citizens should consider voting for another party after 20 years of lip-service and repeated empty promises (proof is in the pudding). Only a small percentage of the poor have been uplifted. Only the elite and a few individuals have actually benefited; but the rest of the poor are poorer due to the widespread corruption and nepotism that has occurred. This cancer in the party is termi-
nal and irreversible. South Africa cannot function in a democratic society with the present party, who are not capable of meeting the tasks ahead. The present party is a government by the least qualified or most unprincipled citizens. They are normally voted into power by a largely moronic plebiscite and will eventually become totally dysfunctional. Remember that the greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its citizens are treated and that wealth is the product of man’s capacity to think. All attempts to repeatedly redistribute wealth will eventually lead to the redistribution of poverty. The country will eventually cease to exis t when government takes from those who are industrious and gives to those that refuse to work. Those that vote for promises must remember these famous words; “Veel beloven, weinig geven, laat menige gek in vreugde leven). Beware of promises. It’s now time for change; definitely a clean government and transparency is the key. Ask yourselves, do we really need another five years of this absence of ethics and shameless corruptibility when we have massive poverty?
‘n Gedagte vir die Paastyd Kallie du Plessis van Vanderbijlpark skryf: Die kruis rus swaar op Sy skouers, Sy liggaam is verniel deur die geselhoue, die doringkroon steek venynig in Sy kop, die bloed drup op die pad hier waar Hy die kruis moet dra na Golgota. Om Hom gil en lag die skare en Hy hoor die gewraakte krete: “ Kruisig Hom, kruisig Hom.” As hierdie beker tog net by Hom verby kan gaan! Maar Hy weet onmiskenbaar, die beker moet Hy ledig tot die laaste bitter druppel. Aan elkeen van ons op hierdie aarde vir wie Hy gesterf het, is ‘n beker uitgedeel maar ons beker het ‘n mengsel van soet en bitter in, ons leef met die soet op ons tong asof dit vir altyd gaan aanhou en as die bitter dan kom, wil ons in sak en as gaan sit sonder om daaraan te dink watter moeisame en
smartlike pad Hy moes stap vir ons. Selfs vandag is daar nog die krete “ kruisig Hom” en die hoonlag en die spot van die skares vind nog weerklank in Sy ore. In die kuberruimte gesel ons Hom nog elke dag,Twitter, Facebook en webtuistes spyker ons Hom nog steeds aan die kruis vas. Is dit dan hoekom ons wêreld vandag so droewig daar uitsien? Ons moet soos die kindertjies glo, en eers dan sal ons die heerlikheid van God se liefde ervaar. Maar ek weet hierdie wêreld sal so gebroke bly,ons sal nog die koerante daagliks oopslaan en van al die aaklighede daarin lees, op die kassie al die gruwelikhede sien, want ons sien nou deur ‘n spieël in ‘n raaisel, maar eendag van aangesig tot Aangesig. Ons moet daaraan vashou, ons beker leeg maak, die goeie stryd stry om die wedloop te voleindig.

Vaalweekblad, 16 April 18 April 2014
Sake
Hoe gouer jy koop, hoe goedkoper jou huis Eerste kopers wat vir ‘n deposito vir ‘n huis spaar en nog na hul perfekte eiendom soek, het straks die laagtepunt van die mark verpas maar dit beteken nie dat hulle nou moet moed opgee om ‘n huis van hul eie te koop nie. Wat dit wel beteken, sê Jan Davel, besturende direkteur van die RealNet-eiendomsagentskapgroep, is dat hulle planne moet maak om hul drome om ‘n huis te koop so gou moontlik moet verwesenlik - of die risiko loop dat hulle oor ‘n jaar of twee baie meer sal moet opdok om die eiendomsmark te betree. “Die laagtepunt van enige mark is die teoretiese punt wanneer huispryse en rentekoerse terselfdertyd op hul laagste vlak is en in die meeste dele van die land is dié tydperk reeds verby aangesien eiendomspryse weer wesenlik begin styg het,” sê hy. “Maar waardes is steeds heelwat laer as die hoogtepunte wat tydens die afgelope toppunt van die mark behaal is terwyl rentekoerse op huislenings steeds op histories lae vlakke is. Dit gee kopers die geleentheid om lenings te bekom teen vlakke wat baie onwaarskynlik weer gaan geld - of wat veel langer beskikbaar gaan wees aangesien kenners meen dat rentekoerse volgende jaar weer gaan begin styg.” ‘n Kykie na Absa se jongste statistiek rakende bekostigbaarheid, sê hy, illustreer die situasie baie duidelik. Die syfers toon dat die maandelikse betaling op ‘n verband van R1miljoen nou sowat 39% minder is as aan die einde van die markoplewing in Desember 2008 danksy die feit dat die “standaard” rentekoers op huislenings sedertdien van 15,5% tot 8,5% gedaal het. “Dit bring mee dat eerste huiskopers, wat waarskynlik ‘n verband van sowat R500 000 benodig, ‘n meer bekostigbare betaling van R4 339 per maand sal moet maak teenoor R7 170 vyf jaar gelede. “Dit beteken ook dat ‘n huishoudelike inkomste van sowat R14 500 vereis word om nou vir so ‘n verband te kwalifiseer teenoor a1tN7Ua
die R23 900 vyf jaar gelede (met dien verstande dat so ‘n inkomste nie deur betaling van ander skuld en lewenskoste geabsorbeer word nie.)” Hy maan dat toestande baie vinnig kan verander indien rentekoerse weer, soos verwag word, begin styg. ‘n Styging van slegs 1% in die gewone rentekoers op huisverbande na 9,5% sal byvoorbeeld die minimum maandelikse betaling op ‘n verband van R500 000
na R4 661 en die minimum huishoudelike inkomste om vir so ‘n verband te kwalifiseer tot meer as R15 500 opstoot. “En as eiendomspryse oor die volgende 12 maande met net 5% styg, sal selfs groter deposito’s, groter verbande - en hoër huishoudelike inkomstes - vir eerste kopers geld om dieselfde eiendom wat hulle vanjaar kon koop, te kan bekostig. ‘n Verband van R500 000 sal waarskynlik opskuif tot R525 000 en
teen ‘n rentekoers van 9,5% sal dit die maandelikse verbandkoste op R4 894 te staan bring. Kortom, sê Davel, hoewel die meeste voornemende kopers waarskynlik nie voortaan uit die mark gehou gaan word as hulle nie gou koop nie, is die kanse goed dat baie van hulle oor ‘n paar jaar baie spyt gaan wees omdat hulle nie eerder eiendom gekoop het nie.
Huiskoop is ‘n groot maar belangrike besluit. Illustrasiefoto
The AfricAn sTory:
risk ThAT includes reTurn
Today, long after the richer countries of the world have forgiven Africa’s grave debts, many African countries’ debt levels are once again creeping up, something that could undermine the continent’s growth. “After discussions with Reuters and others in the know we can safely say that there will still be a spotlight on Africa as an emerging market (EM) for the foreseeable future” said Kobus Geldenhuys, Senior Wealth Strategist at N-e-FG Fund Management. Did it become “fashionable” to invest in all EM’s in the recent past? Recently an anonymous investor remarked that Eurobonds have become like private jets. Every African leader wants to have one. With bailouts from the World Bank and IMF available, countries can get too deep in debt. However, with greed being what it is, this is likely. To investors around the world, including South Africa, this remains alarming. It was as recent as in 2007 when Ghana became the first African beneficiary of debt relief to tap international capital markets. A US$750 million 10-year Eurobond was issued. Following in their footsteps was Zambia, Senegal, Nigeria and Rwanda, also previously debt-burdened countries; adding their names to the list of bond issuers. Analysts claim that no Sub-Saharan countries are in immediate danger of default and that the majority are financing themselves domestically. However, the debt build-up is slowly stirring up some not such pleasant memories of the past. We are again reminded that the IMF and World Bank had to reduce the debt of 30 low income countries, where around $ 100 billion of debt had to be written off. While searching for growth and opportunities on the African continent, we come across cash constraints that are a concern in Mozambique, Malawi, Uganda, Ghana, Niger, Senegal, and Benin. Current growth is focussed on current borrowing rates, where debt indicators are on a steady path right back to pre-relief levels within this decade.
Reuters was quick to point out that Ghana, which sold a new US$750 million Eurobond and bought back a portion of the 2017 issue last year, shows how growing debt levels can threaten countries’ fiscal dynamics. With a growth rate topping at 14.5% in 2011 it sure was an investor favourite. We saw the currency (Cedi) slip against the dollar some 9% this year, after a 24% downfall in 2013. It was October 2013 when Fitch downgraded this cocoa, gold and oil producer to a B rating. Fitch did the same to Zambia just last year, although Zambia’s story is in some ways a slower version of Ghana’s. Africa’s biggest copper producer sold a oversubscribed debut US$750 million Eurobond in 2012 and still plans to deliver returns to the market. Note that it is not an election year for our Zambian brothers and sisters. Although, just as with SA they also promise to spend on various aspects of infrastructure, roads, and energy; but it is likely that at their current borrowing rate it may not be sustained. Geldenhuys pointed out that from a recent trip to both Accra and Lusaka; it is quite evident that Africa is still a fundamentally different place compared to 20 years ago when old debt was still taken on. “Yes - there are misgivings about specific countries but we welcome the robust growth and better public sector management. We agree with the Washington based Centre for Global Development that the challenges for governments remain to ensure that borrowed funds are invested wisely and not mismanaged”.
Eurobonds may be a short-term funding solution for Africa as tapering of the U.S. Federal Reserve’s bondbuying stimulus ends an era of low interest rates in the rich world that sent investors rushing to higheryielding emerging markets. This is exactly where this bottom tip of the specific African emerging market holds more than a few treasures suitable to any investor, regardless of man’s superficial fashions. We have reason to strongly believe that, as with most EM’s, Africa will not come to a grinding halt, nor find itself on its knees in front of the developed
world. Signs are showing that it might as well be the other way around, when the ever growing richer countries keep on running out of space to provide food; to name but one key element. When investing cautiously and enhancing the current opportunities by embracing the risks that are involved, one will still see the rewards that are produced right alongside the volatility. Sure, a tainted picture is often set by both the media and the markets, but every so often we need to sort right through it all to embrace the very opportunity that creates just that - the outperformance EM’s so gracefully achieve.

SEDIBENG. - The shining smile of Makgomo Nakampe from Steel Park, a professional dental therapist, has become locally known since she was chosen as one of the top 22 finalists of Mrs South Africa. The wife and mother of two has much to offer. The show will be broadcast live during August. She is one of the few who made it to the top 22 and she is excited about the challenge, no matter how tense the competition might become. Nakampe says she has to execute a task of charity for cancer as part of her main challenge for the competition. She adds that Mrs SA has come in handy as she always wanted to compete in pageants but time was against her, including her age. “When I was young I always wanted to show the world who I am, and compete on the highest level. Due to life-commitments my dreams never realised. I, however always hoped for an opportunity,” says Nakampe, who thanks her husband for his support and that of her two kids. To vote for this beautiful mom SMS Makgomo Nakape to 35959.

(Ons het verlede week so baie geld met die duur koerant gemaak dat ons die prys vir die res van die jaar kan afbring na R470! ;) Red.) * SAPD wil vrou arresteer omdat sy op plaasrowers skiet. Vertel ons hoe dink julle SAPD mense. Ek verwys na die plaasaanval by Mclear (OosKaap) waar ‘n boer en sy dogter ernstig beseer is. * Wat’s die verskil om huur te betaal of ‘n bond te betaal? Altwee kan jy uitgesit word as jy nie betaal nie. Enige werker mag hoeveel vir huur betaal, maar mag nie dieselfde op ‘n bond betaal nie. Hoe kom? * Kan jy glo, elke keer wanneer die krag en water lesing gelees word, hou ek haar dop, sy maak nie al die waterdeksels oop nie, sy maak of sy dit oop maak. So die lesings word geskat en ons moet net betaal. * Vaalweekblad, daai omslagprys van julle.... was dit die Drukkersduiwel? (Nee die was die Blikbreinblikskater ’n reke naarkoderingsfout wat nie vooraf op die proewe gewys het nie. Ons slim ITmense sê die pro bleem is nou uitgestryk. Nogmaals dankie aan al mal wat ons “duur” koerant gekoop het. Red.) * Ek kan nie glo dat die munisipaliteit mense ge bruik wat nie kan water en ligte lees nie, ek hou elke dag dop, die watermeters word nie almal ge lees nie net geskat. Hoe de joos. * Hallo Vaalweekbladlesers! Wil graag vir Johan sê, baie geluk met jou verjaardag die 7de April. Lief jou baie.

ViVa DP Kaap Frik E. * Goeie dag, ek pleit oor die arme rooikatte en lam mers wat in ’n dieretuin is. Hulle is in toe vertrekke, nie ‘n bietjie gras of enige grond nie, hier en daar lê takke en riete. Die DBV behoort na sulke tipe dinge te gaan kyk. * Hi het jul ‘n naure nommer vir nuus in die Vaal?

* Tien uit tien vir die smser oor die bestuurders met hul groot karre. Dit het my laat wonder of ek nie ook vir ‘n ou skenkingkie kan vra nie. Enige groot sterk bakkie sal doen asseblief. Iets waar voor ek nie jammer sal wees nie. Wil net die mense in die regterbaan aanhelp dat hulle kan voel wat spoed oor 60km/h veronderstel is om te wees. Kom nou mense, help iemand uit. Vra nie veel nie, net ‘n ou bakkie of dalk ‘n trokkie wat rondstaan.

Baie oulike waghondjie. 083 5116 197. * In Bogartstraat bly mense wat baie meer honde het as wat toelaatbaar is, hulle is ‘n oorlas en ‘n pes vir almal om hulle. Hulle blaf letterlik dag en nag en hulle tjank en baklei. Ek vra mooi, doen iets daaromtrent, voordat iemand anders iets daaraan doen. * Dagsê is daar lesers wat roeispane het wat nie gebruik word om vir my te skenk of teen klein be drag te verkoop. Lekker dag 076 431 9346. * Vriendskap is die hoeksteen van die lewe. Die plek waar ons net onsself kan wees ongeag van hoe ons lyk, die huis waarin ons bly of ons lewens omstandighede, want die lewensreis sluit ompaaie in. Gebroke drome, verkeerde afdraaie, selfs doodloopstrate. Maar op Sy tyd tree God in en gee wysheid en krag om op te staan. Onthou daar is altyd iemand wat jou onthou en jou vriendskap waardeer. * Sekere firma in Vereeniging wat sy werkers sleg behandel. En sy werkers moet jaar in en jaar uit sonder verhoging. En jaar in en jaar uit met verlof gaan sonder verlofgeld. Onthou net julle kan ook tot ‘n val kom. Onthou God slaap nie. * Oscar should get an Oscar for acting, from whom was he trying to protect Reeva? Now he blames the whole world. He must go to jail. José. * Ek is ‘n weergebore geskeide dame, ek is op soek na woonplek naby Kingstr. Duncanville, Risiville sal ook reg wees. Ek kan net R1 600 betaal. Kontak my by 076 7979 223. * Ag tog hier gaan die nierokers al weer, iets sê vir my hierdie gladde fietsryers wat als moet skeer en mense wat kla oor rook, klim uit dieselfde pea nut dop uit. Die een glip en gly oor als, en die ander een blaas fluitjies agter rokers. In die ou dae toe mens nog hard was, was julle die ouens met pienk strikkies in die hare.
* Goeie dag ek is op soek na hekelpatrone vir slaapsokkies of ou Huisgenote of Keur waarin die patrone dalk kan wees! Kontak my by 060 9634 609. * Is op soek na ‘n Compaq 610 laptop screen.

SPCA Horse & Hound Day
VEREENIGING. - On May 1 the streets of Three Rivers will once again come alive with barking and panting as dogs of all shapes and
sizes, accompanied by their owners, make their annual trek through the streets in aid of the SPCA. SPCA Vereeniging will be hosting their annual fundraiser at the Dick Fourie Stadium from 07:00 to 13:00. This year the organisers have decided to go big or go home and they have, with the help of Red Ark Studio and Robin Leask, secured 25 artists that will be per-
forming on the day whilst the horse riders compete in the jumping arena and the dogs compete in the dog competitions. The best news is that there is no entry fee to the premises on the day! The entertainment will be provided free of charge; just bring your blanket or camping chair. There will be a beer tent and many food stalls, so come hungry. The petwalk will start at 08:00 and finish at 09:30. All dogs joining the walk will pay R20 per dog and R10 per person walking. Dogs that have an SPCA tag on their collars on the day will get an extra prize. All dogs finishing the walk will get a prize.
The horse entries will be handled through Brett Webber who can be contacted at carpediem@mweb.co.za for entry forms. There are great prizes for the horses as well. There are a few fun classes for the dogs – fancy dress, mutt of the day and the happiest dog – entry fee is R30 per dog. Prizes sponsored are absolutely fantastic! There will be lots of entertainment for kids including Babaloo the Clown, jumping castles and more! Make May 1 SPCA Day – book the date now! For further info on booking a stall please contact wildes@mweb.co.za. Also follow their Facebook page for more information.

Lag saam met ‘Ek joke net 2’
Alishia van Deventer
Die poetsbakkers van Ek Joke Net is terug vir ’n tweede ronde se moles maak en hierdie keer is daar geen genade nie. Hoe reageer die niksvermoedende slagoffers wanneer hulle hulself vasloop in die Ek Joke Net 2 “pranksters”? As goedgelowige lid van die publiek sal jy enigiets doen om tot ’n medemens se hulp te kom, maar wat gebeur wanneer die situasie heeltemal absurd raak en jy jou eie realiteit begin bevraagteken? Net voordat jy voel jy het heeltemal kop verloor, spring iemand met ’n kamera uit en heelaas, jy is uitgevang. Die poetsbakkers van Ek Joke Net is terug en hulle
het weer ’n string slagoffers vir hulle kerfstok. Ronde twee bring ’n hele reeks nuwe poetse na die grootskerm en danksy die handjie vol weldoeners wat (onwetend) volhartig deelneem, is Ek Joke Net 2 die lekkerste lekker van versteekte kameragenot. Ek Joke Net 2 open op 1 Mei in teaters landwyd. Die akteurs is Hannes Brummer, Solomon Cupido, Lelia Etsebeth, Richard Lukunku, Thokozani Ntulu en Yolandi Malherbe. Gasspelers is Leandi du Randt, Francois Jacobs en Bradley Olivier met regisseur Stefan Nieuwoudt en vervaardigers Dries Scholtz en Danie Bester.

park s aves p ensioners’ llives ives S Spark saves pensioners’
The Chevrolet Spark, which was recently awarded the Top Safety Pick accolade by US crash test giant IIHS (Insurance Institute for Highway Safety), has proven its crash worthiness in a horror accident on the Bobbejaans River Bridge in Nature’s Valley involving 69year-old pensioner Denise Westgate and her husband. The Chevrolet Spark is the only supermini ever to achieve the Top Safety Pick accolade, and subscribes to comments made by IIHS Senior Vice President for Vehicle Research Joe Nolan, who stated that small, lightweight vehicles have an inherent safety disadvantage which makes choosing one with the best occupant protection even more important. Westgate described the harrowing experience as traumatic, but was thrilled with her 2012 Chevrolet Spark’s safety performance when it mattered most, claiming it undoubtedly saved her and her husband’s lives. “We were on our way back to Mossel Bay from Storms River, when troops of baboons on either side of the Bobbejaans River Bridge caused me to slow down. I then noticed a car approaching rapidly, and clearly out of control,” says Westgate. “The vehicle hit the driver’s side of my car, shunting us towards the left-side barrier. We hit the barrier with tremendous force, both front airbags deployed and I really thought we were going over the edge, which would have resulted in a 170 metre drop. It was very difficult to see or concentrate, and after the rear of my car hit the barrier as well, I managed
to wrench the steering wheel and turn the vehicle to the right, out of fear and panic. We then swerved toward the other side of the bridge, and thanks to the initial airbag smoke having cleared slightly, I was able to make sense of where we were and slam on the brakes.” The Spark’s brakes remained effective and
Recent sales statistics show that people are holding on to their current vehicles for longer, and resisting the urge to buy a new set of wheels. According to the National Automobile Association of SA (Naamsa) South African vehicle sales dropped 3.1% in February compared to the same period last year, with new passenger car sales falling by 5.4%. “Following four successive years of growth in domestic new vehicle sales, prospects for this year would be affected by subdued economic growth, above average new vehicle price increases as a result of exchange rate weakness and upward pressure on interest rates,” the association said. This means the regular maintenance of motorists’ vehicles is more critical than ever, says Les Mc Master, Chairman of the Motor Industry Workshop Association (MIWA.) “Regular maintenance is key to extending the life of your car, and will help you pick up smaller repairs early enough to prevent more serious faults occurring further down the line.” He advises motorists to keep a close eye on the car’s manual and schedule maintenance. “Even better, set a recurring reminder
on your phone to alert you when you to get your vehicle checked annually. Keeping up with your car’s recommended maintenance schedule can help avoid costly problems with your cooling system, drive-train, suspension
she was able to bring the vehicle to a complete stop, one metre before hitting the opposite barrier. The fact that the driver’s door didn’t cave in, was one of the largest contributing factors to her walking away from the accident. Chevrolet Brand Manager at General Motors South Africa, Tim Hendon, comments:
“We are all very glad that they were both able to walk away unscathed. However, such events go to show that crash worthiness and safety ratings really do carry weight in the real world and that the high rating given to the Chevrolet Spark clearly has merit.”

and other components.” Motorists should also ensure their car is serviced by a reputable workshop that only uses quality oil, fluids and parts. “Although at that moment it might sound like an attracti-
ve option to service your car for as cheaply as possible, the financial implications in the long run will outweigh the apparent short term benefit. It’s never wise to scrimp on your car’s maintenance costs.” In addition to regular maintenance there are a number of other things motorists can do to extend a car’s life. Motorists should regularly check the level of fluids in their vehicles, such as the antifreeze, oil, transmission fluid, power steering fluid, and brake fluid. “Even if your car doesn’t leak fluids, it can develop a leak quite quickly, which results in a dangerously low level of fluids. It’s also important to change the oil regularly as this will improve your mileage and protect your engine. Find the recommended mileage between oil changes, check your vehicle’s service manual and if still unsure, consult with an accredited MIWA workshop. It’s important to change the oil filter as well - there is no sense in putting clean oil through a dirty filter, and filters are cheap and available at any parts store,” says McMaster. He also advises motorists to monitor the thickness of their vehicle’s brake pad to prevent the pads from wearing down to metal. This will cause damage to the brake disks and possibly the callipers as well. It’s worth noting that disks and callipers are much more expensive to replace than pads. Another tip to make the brakes last longer, is to use the hand brake where possible, he says. “Even if you are driving a car with an automatic transmission, use your hand brake regularly, especially if you’re parked on an incline. It helps keep the brakes adjusted in the rear of the car and makes them last longer.” Furthermore, rotate your tyres often as it reduces uneven wear and tear on the tread, thus extending the life of the tyres. Generally they should be rotated diagonally - front right to rear left and front left to rear right. “You also need to check your tyre pressure regularly. Proper tyre inflation will help the tyres handle better and last longer, and it will help you get the most out of a tank of petrol. It’s also a good idea to have your tyres regularly checked for wear.” But most of all, don’t ignore small problems. Pay close attention to a vehicle’s noises and also to its warning lights and even cosmetic aspects, like a piece of rubber trim that’s loose, he says. “Ignoring a problem only allows it to get worse, and parts for aging vehicles are often difficult to locate.”

He will be remembered in the South African boxing history for beating Willie Ludick in the second half of 1958 in the Cyril Carrol Club Hall in Germiston. He then became the first senior amateur to beat Ludick. He in fact believes that he was the only South African amateur to beat Ludick. He became a Springbok when he was chosen to represent South Africa for boxing in the 1950 British Empire and Commonwealth Games in the Light Weight Division. He reigned as SA Amateur Light Weight champ from 1958 to 1960. After a couple of fights in the professional arena he retired at his wife’s insistence in 1963. Charl still remained very much involved in the boxing scene and set up his own club as a trainer. He continued his success story by producing boxers like Steven van Graan, a Springbok and SA Welterweight champion. Charl also entered the professional scene and trained champions such as Jan Happy Pieterse, who become a SA Light Heavy Weight Champion. Of the 230 fights that Charl participated in, he only had 30 losses. His name is also in a book “Goud en Glorie” that was written to

It is that time of the year when the Christian community, across denominations, remember the death and rise of the Lord Jesus Christ. Easter is a poignant and important annual event. Many people will travel during this season to visit family and friends or to join church pilgrimages. Therefore, the government, through the Departments of Health and Transport, ensures that there are minimum road accidents. On behalf of the Sedibeng District Municipality, I wish you all peaceful and safe travelling as you travel to your various destinations to meet your loved ones.
EASTER MESSAGE
FROM THE EXECUTIVE MAYOR OF THE
SEDIBENG DISTRICT MUNICIPALITY, CLLR. MAHOLE SIMON MOFOKENG
As a reflection of the 20-year celebration of democracy, let us in a spirit of the late Ntate Madiba, continue touching the lives of those around us. Let us make this Easter weekend one in which we minimise accidents on the roads. It depends on each and every road user to exercise responsibility as we move forward. This is a significant Easter because it is in the same month where, on 27th of April 1994, everyone who was eligible to vote voted regardless of their skin colour. 20 years on, we are preparing for the 5th general elections on the 7th of May 2014. Like the eligible voters of 1994, who exercised their right to cast their vote, eligible voters of 2014 must cast their vote to move South Africa forward peacefully in the up-coming general elections.
Happy Easter
I wish all the people of Sedibeng, and South Africans at large, a truly blessed Easter. Let us return safe and continue to build our country, the economy and its people. God bless. Cllr. Mahole Simon Mofokeng Sedibeng District Municipal Executive Mayor

Handboek-afrigting uit oudedoos
Ettienne van Rensburg
VANDERBIJLPARK. - Met die toetrede van T20-krieket het die spel met die leerbal ingrypend verander dat dit bykans onmoontlik is om by te bly. Geen wonder dat die here en puriste met die stywe bo-lippe vasskop teen verandering nie. Vernuwende denke is hier die wagwoord. Jy pas aan en oorleef of dis neusie verby. Dit is presies wat Wikus Botha, hoofafrigter en koördineerder van NWU Vaal se nuut gestigte Cricket Centre of Excellence, beoog. “Krieket het aanbeweeg en dis maklik om uit voeling te raak. Ek het die afgelope ruk toe ek eersterangse krieket vir die Noordwes Dragons gespeel het, baie geleer en met ‘n skok agtergekom hoe vinnig alles verander. “Mens kan nie meer volgens die handboek afrig nie. Ons wil vir talentvolle jong spelers ‘n platform skep om hulle toe te rus om eendag groot krieket te speel. Ons wil die standaard van krieket in die Vaaldriehoek lig. Hier is baie talentvolle spelers wat nie tot hulle reg kom nie,” het Botha aan Vaalweekblad gesê. Die sentrum se teikengroep is spelers tussen die ouderdom van 13 en 19 jaar. Daar sal slegs 32 spelers per ouderdomsgroep (o.13, o.15 en o.19) aanvaar word en selfs dogterskrieket op o.19-vlak sal ook aandag geniet. Die vraag op almal se tong is wat maak die sentrum soveel anders as ander akademies? “Ons het spesialis toerusting om video-analises te doen. Ons wil die speler as

geheel ontwikkel en hulle toerus met die nodige sielkundige en sosiale vaardighede om goeie krieketspelers te wees. ‘n Wetenskaplike fiksheidsprogram is nog ‘n hoeksteen van ons filosofie. Ons binnemuurse fasiliteite is ook van die hoogste gehalte,” het hy gesê. Botha glo ook in ‘n oopdeurbeleid en beoog om tydens die kwartaallikse terugvoe-
ringsessies konkrete bewyse van die individue se vordering aan hulle ouers te gee onder meer deur middel van video-opnames. “Ons doelwitte is om gereeld oorsee te gaan toer sodat die spelers teen gehalte opposisie kan speel. “Ons wil binne drie jaar verseker dat die universiteit in die Premier-liga op sy eie speel.

Sasol Cross ends on a high VANDERBIJLPARK. - After three adrenaline-pumping Sasol Cross Adventure Events, the winners of the last edition of the 2014 series have been crowned. Stefan van Niekerk emerged the true champion completing the race in a time of 1:35:44. “It feels good to have won this race. Each section is challenging, yet enjoyable. I participated in the first event in February and placed seventh. Winning the final leg of the series is truly fulfilling,” shared van Niekerk. Following van Niekerk in this category was Joggie Rossouw finishing in a time of 1:37:26, and third place went to Ruan Naude for coming in at 1:40:55. Third-time winner in the 2014 series and no stranger to the Sasol Cross Adventure Events, Sylvia van Tromp clenched the title in the women’s race in a time of 1:35:58. “It’s such a blessing to win all three races. I have taken part in the event for a
number of years now, but still never take it lightly. The best part of the Sasol Cross Adventure, apart from the fact that it’s a well organised race, is that it caters to athletes of all fitness levels and families which is great,” said van Tromp. Second place in the ladies’ category went to Johandri Leicester (1:48:44); and third place was secured by Nadine Pretorius (1:59:46). “Making a difference in the community of Sasolburg, which is an integral part of our business operations as a company, is of great importance to us. It’s been an exceptional series and we are proud to offer an event of this calibre.” said Ivor Zwane, General Manager Public Affairs at Sasol Sasolburg. Sasol’s contribution to the development of sports includes karate, athletics, swimming, motorsport and soccer, to name a few.

Dokkies will be competitive Wyane Raath
Hoërskool Dr. Malan’s first rugby team finished in 5th place in the NWU Super 10 played on their grounds on Saturday. They defeated a spirited Benoni High 28-0 after leading 7-0 at half time. All in all they scored four tries and never seemed to be in danger of losing. The try that broke the back of the game was scored by fly-half Charl Penning. After putting in a box kick he followed up well and
when the Benoni fullback took the ball, diving backwards, it appeared as though Dr. Malan had given possession away. However, as the fullback’s arms hit the ground the ball popped out into the in-goal area and the flyhalf pounced on it unopposed. The forwards drove well with the ball and tighthead prop Johan Van der Walt needed some stopping. Dr. Malan will certainly be competitive in the league this season.

R ekords s pat Rekords spat Ettienne van Rensburg
VANDERBIJLPARK. – Mens mag nie jou talente onder ‘n maatemmer wegsteek nie. Die Bybel leer ons immers so. Een persoon wat die opdrag ter harte geneem het, is die 16-jarige atleet Christaan Schultz van die Hoërskool Driehoek in Vanderbijlpark. Die jong sportman het tydens die pasafgelope SuidAfrikaanse atletiekkampioenskap vir gestremde atlete in Stellenbosch sy wildste drome bewaarheid toe hy vier SA-rekords (100 m, 200 m en verspring) en ‘n Afrika-rekord (400 m) in die T44-afdeling vir s.o/18 verbeter het. Ondanks die feit dat hy met ‘n regterenkel wat slegs 19 grade kan beweeg en ‘n onderontwikkelde kuitspier gebore is, het hy tot laasjaar nog krieket en rugby vir sy skool gespeel. “Ons het hom soos enige ander kind grootgemaak. Hy is ‘n rustige en nederige kind. Hy is rugby- en sokkermal, maar het op die advies van ‘n spesialis op-
Desember-vakansie geplant toe ‘n vriend van die familie ‘n grap gemaak het dat Christiaan teen ander atlete met fisieke gebreke moet deelneem. Die res is geskiedenis. Daar word gesê dat sport karakter ontwikkel, maar in dié geval het dit die jongeling se karakter uit sy dop laat kruip. Die rekords wat hy opgestel het, was strate beter as die voriges. Daarvan sal sy uitslae getuig. In die 100 m het hy die SA-rekord van 13,85s tot 13,07s verbeter. In die 200 m het hy die nasionale rekord met amper vier sekondes van 30:00 tot 26,47s verbeter. Die Afrika 400 m-rekord het ook kort daarna gespat toe hy die afstand in 58,85 s afgelê het om die bestaande rekord van 1,00,85 s te verbeter. Sy vierde SA titel en rekord is aan hom besorg toe hy die verspringrekord (4,15 m) met 1.24 m tot 5,39 m verbeter

Mzansi-toer kuier in Vaal
Ettienne van Rensburg
VANDERBIJLPARK. - Suid-Afrika se voorste beroepsfietsryers het Vrydag in die Vaaldriehoek ‘n draai gemaak met die derde en voorlaaste skof van die tweede Mzansi-fietstoer wat by die NWU Vaalkampus geëindig het. Die internasionale UCI-geklassifiseerde byeenkoms wat deur Cathsseta geborg word, het van 8-12 April plaasgevind. Die uitmergelende derde skof oor 201 km wat in Bethlehem afgeskop het en vier uur en 27 minute later deur Herman Fouché van Bonitas Pro Cycling gewen is, het 15 spanne én jaers van regoor die wêreld gelok. Fouché het die bondelnaelrit en die derde skof gewen min wetende dat die uitslag van die skof ook die finale uitslag van die toer sou wees. Weens die ryers se uiteenlopende vaardigheidsvlakke het die organiseerders besluit dat die vierde en finale skof ‘n eendag-formaat sou aanneem. Vanweë die tegniese aard van die skof en met die deelnemers se veiligheid in gedagte is daar besluit om in plaas van 15 rondes van 5.3 km elk, ’n korter roete van 60 km deur Blue Hills Estate aan te durf. Die proloog vroeër in die week wat die begin van die toer aangekondig het, was ‘n spantydtoets by die Emmerentia-dam wat deur Rapha Condor JLT gewen is. Daarna het die ryers die eerste skof oor 140 km aangedurf, wat by Golden Gate begin het en in die kunstenaars-dorp Clarens geëindig het. Jacques Jansen van Rensburg van MTN Qhubeka het die wenstreep eerste in ‘n tyd van 3:11:11 oorgesteek. Daarna het die span MTN Qhubeka die krane verder oopgedraai. Louis Meintjies (MTN Qhubeka), ‘n silwermedaljewenner by die 2013 o.23 Wêreld Kampioenskap, het ‘n tweede skof-oorwinning aan Suid-Afrika en MTN Qhubeka besorg, toe hy die tweede skof oor 159 km van Clarens na Golden Gate in ‘n wentyd van

3:36:08 afgelê het. Die derde en langste skof wat deur Fouché gewen is, het in ‘n dramatiese bondelnaelrit geëindig met Fouché wat net-net ‘n hewige aanslag deur Oostenryk se Jan Sokol (Synergy Baku) en Nolan Hoffman (Abantu) in derde plek afgeweer het. Jansen van Rensburg het egter gedurende
die toer genoeg gedoen om as die algehele wenner gekroon te word en sodoende sy eerste internasionale toer te wen. Hy het ook die Cathsseta African Riderskompetisie gewen. Die toer is Saterdag by die Mzansi Kriterium op ‘n hoogtepunt afgesluit, toe HB Kruger van Bonitas die naelrit gewen het. Sy span-
maat Louis Meintjies het algeheel tweede, 43 sekondes na die wenner geëindig. Hy het ook die Europcar se Jong jaer- en Compendium se Koning van die Berge-kompetisie gewen. Nolan Hoffman (Abantu) het gesorg dat Suid-Afrika skoonskip maak toe hy met die Echelon Events Punte-trui weggestap het.
