Reën nie so abnormaal nie Deur Andries van Zyl

‘n Rare verskynsel het die afge lope week plaasgevind deurdat die Albasinidam se een sluis oopgetrek moes word vanweë ‘n oorvol dam. Dit kon groot liks toegeskryf word aan die deurdringende reën wat sedert verlede week oor die streek uit sak. Te midde hiervan het krane in Louis Trichardt en omstreke weer leeggeloop. Alhoewel so iets in die winter ietwat ongewoon is, het mnr. Fanie Havinga, voorsitter van die Soutpansberg Distrikslandbou-unie en ondervoorsitter van TLU SA se Noordstreek, gesê die praktyk om oortollige water uit te laat is nie ongewoon nie. “Wat die dam betref, glo ek daar is iemand wat goeie bestuur toepas wat betref die dam se damvlakke. Onthou die dam is vol en dit het nou skielik weer ge-

reën, so daar kom ‘n klomp water in wat hulle wil uitlaat. Dit is nie goed vir die dam om bo sy 100% vlak te wees nie. Hulle maak plek vir water wat inkom, wat normaal is. ‘n Paar keer deur die seisoen het hulle dit al gedoen. Dit is vir my verblydend om te sien dat goeie bestuur toegepas word,” het Havinga gesê. Alhoewel die koue en nat weer nie vir almal ‘n plesier is nie, het Havinga gesê hulle is dankbaar daarvoor. “Vir ons as landbouers is ons eintlik baie dankbaar vir die reën wat nou val, want met hierdie baie beurtkrag help dit dat ons bome water kry met die reën. Reën is op die einde van die dag beter as enige ander besproeiing. So, in hierdie stadium pla dit ons nie regtig baie nie,” het Havinga gesê. Havinga het ook gemeen die goeie winterreën van die afgelope week is ook nie abnormaal vir die streek nie. “Ons lê mos eintlik in ‘n

‘n Rare verskynsel in die middel van die winter. Een van die Albasinid am se sluise is die afgelope week oopgetrek om die invloei van water in die dam te midde van die deurdringende reën die afgelope twee weke te reguleer.

subtropies gebied hier teen die berg af, so vir ons in die Soutpansberg-gebied is dit maar normaal. Ons het maar net vergeet van hoe dit was in die ou dae toe dit nog mooi gereën het en goed gegaan het met ons,” het Havinga gesê. Hy het bygevoeg dat die goeie reën ook vir boere hier in die noorde ‘n goeie seisoen voorspel. Volgens Havinga is die prentjie egter nie so rooskleurig vir almal nie. “Vir die res van die land, die hoëveld en die vlaktes en daardie gebiede met die stropers wat nou moet hardloop met die sonneblom en mielies wat op die

Believe it or not, but this is the newly built sidewalk in Alwyn Street, Louis Trichardt, between Leeu and Kameel Street. The reasoning behind it left many residents dumbfounded. “What genius in our municipality decided to spend money on a sidewalk down the entire length of Alwyn Street east of Leeu Street and make it impossible for pedestrians to use? I am in favour of paved sidewalks, but they need to be smooth enough for even the elderly to use safely. Pedestrians are now forced to use the roadway, yet for the same money that this monstrosity cost, a safe and pleasing sidewalk could have been provided. Too often roads are built with only motor vehicles in mind and without any consideration for all road uses,” remarked Louis Trichardt resident Malcolm Tucker.

Munisipaliteite soos Musina, Collins Chabane, Makhado en Thulamela ondervind tans ernstige water tekorte vanweë beurtkrag … Ons versoek inwoners om kennis te neem van die elektrisiteitskrisis waarmee ons sit en dat dit watervoorsiening in al ons munisipaliteite beïnvloed,” het Vhembe gesê en verskoning gevra vir enige ongerief wat die watertekort kan veroorsaak.

We’ll soon do away with our “actors”, promises mayor By Anton van Zyl The Makhado municipality will soon no lon ger be the playground of “actors”, the mayor of Makhado, Cllr Samuel Munyai, promised last week. During his budget speech, Munyai said that people had started joking that this was a place for “Hollywood actors” because of the number of senior officials serving in acting posts. “We have just finished the process of interviewing [for] the positions of municipal manager and directors. We are therefore going to move in full swing,” Munyai said. The Makhado Municipality has come under pressure for its inability to fill important senior positions, with many believing that the in-fighting within the ANC caused a stalemate in the cadre-deployment process.

Friday’s meeting to present the municipality’s budget for 2022/23 did not start without some drama. Members of the Zoutpansberg Development Community Forum (ZCDF) embarked on a protest march and wanted to deliver a memorandum of grievances to the mayor but were stopped by the police. Mayor Munyai proceeded to present a budget topping R1,65 billion (total). The operating budget is set at R1,205 billion, while the capital budget amounts to R449,8 million. The exact details of the budget were, however, not made available. Only selected information about the budget was contained in the mayor’s speech. When the municipality’s spokesperson, Louis Bobodi, was asked to make the approved budget available, he was unable to do so. He suggested that this document be officially requested from the municipal manager. The approved

budget is supposed to be available to members of the public but is not at present. The only document available on the municipality’s website is an outdated draft version.

As far as the capital budget is concerned, the biggest portion (R213 million) will be spent on roads. Mayor Munyai highlighted several of In his budget speech, Munyai said that the these infrastructure projects, such as the Lucouncil had approved a 4,8% rise in property tanandwa Bridge and access road, which will be rates as well as charges for other services renconstructed at an estimated cost of R33 million. dered by the municipality.

Hierdie week, 25 jaar gelede in die

Zoutpansberger Hierdie week, 25 jaar gelede, het die stof nog lank nie gaan lê rondom die “reg stellende aksie” aanstelling van mnr. Dan Masengani as stadstesourier van die Gro ter Louis Trichardt Oorgangsraad nie. Dit het gevolg nadat beide lede van Imatu (Independent Municipal and Allied Trade Union) en die Louis Trichardt Inwo nersvereniging aangedui het dat hulle sou aansoek doen om ‘n dringende hofinterdik om die aanstelling te stuit. Die interessanter berig op die Zoutpansberger se voorblad van 27 Junie 1997 was egter die storie van die 15-jarige Paul Botha wat ‘n pasgebore baba gered het uit ‘n vlak graf op die plaas Vondeling net buite Louis Trichardt. Paul se ma het vertel hoe hulle onraad vermoed het toe een van hulle plaaswerkers, wat verwagtend was, nie opgedaag het vir werk nie. ‘n Ander plaaswerker het na haar gaan soek en haar gevind waar sy in digte bosse besig was om te kraam. Volgens die werker het dit gelyk of die vrou die baba wou doodmaak en sy het dit dadelik aan die Bothas gerapporteer. Die polisie is ontbied, maar die vrou het volgehou dat sy nooit geboorte gegee het nie. Tydens ‘n doktersondersoek is bevind dat sy wel geboorte geskenk het. Intussen het die polisie die plaas verlaat, maar Paul se nuuskierigheid het hom en drie werkers genoop om na die baba te gaan soek. Paul het tussen die blare rondgekrap waar die vrou laaste gesien is en skielik die sagte gehuil van ‘n baba gehoor. Die baba is onder ‘n groot klip in ‘n vlak graffie van bykans 30 sentimeter

begrawe. Die baba is hospitaal toe gejaag waar sy toestand gestabiliseer is. Die vrou is van poging tot moord aangekla. En vir die wat hou van ietsie om te drink om die braaivleisvuur - hierdie week, 25 jaar gelede, kon jy as spesiale aanbieding ‘n bottel Richelieu brandewyn koop vir slegs R26,99 per bottel, terwyl ‘n bottel Red Heart rum jou R43,90 uit die sak sou jaag. Wat “mix” betref sou ‘n twee-liter Coke jou daardie week R5,99 kos. ‘n “Moerse steak” by Niel Fourie Groothandelslaghuis het net R12,99 per kilogram gekos en varktjops R12,98 per kilogram. As jy potjie wou maak, het skaappotjie R12,95 per kilogram gekos.

As far as the operating budget is concerned, several projects have been prioritised. The biggest amount, R16 million, is set aside for the maintenance of roads in Louis Trichardt and the R293 townships. A further R15 million is budgeted for the grading and gravelling of roads in all wards. Council has set aside R11 million to construct electricity feeder lines in Levubu, while R3,4 million is allocated for streetlights in Louis Trichardt, Waterval, Tshikota and Dzanani. R8,1 million will be used for bush clearing and the replacement of ageing infrastructure in Mara, Bandelierkop, Bluegumspoort and at the Tshihire, Levubu 1 and Levubu 2 feeder lines. The municipality will receive several grants to help it cover its operational expenses. National Treasury will contribute R445,89 million through its equitable share grant. The municipal infrastructure grant (MIG) will again add R102,59 million to the municipality’s coffers, while a R1,95 million financial management grant was promised. The extended public works programme will also contribute R3,259 million.

University plans on track “The Louis Trichardt Extension 13 township will be finalised by the end of this month (June), which will culminate in the process of transferring the portion of land to the University of Venda for the development of the much-awaited campus,” said Munyai. He also mentioned the development in Louis Trichardt Extension 9 (north of Stubbs Street), which is being done in conjunction with COGHSTA. He expressed the hope that the expansion of the town would ultimately lead to improved revenue collection. The municipality is also in the process of finalising the town establishments in Louis Trichardt Extension 13 and Tshikota Extension 2 and 3. “All these projects combined [will add] 2 800 stands,” he said.

Ek is ... die Weg, die Waarheid en die Lewe

“Maar Rut sê: ... waar u gaan, sal Ek gaan; en waar u vertoef, sal Ek vertoef; u volk is my volk, en u God is my God.” Rut 1:16.

ierdie keuse van Rut het meegebring dat sy haar land, haar volk, haar huis en vriende verlaat het om ‘n onsekere toekoms tegemoet te gaan. Orpa, daarenteen, het verkies om om te draai na haar volk en haar gode toe. Dit is ‘n ou geskiedenis wat dwarsdeur die eeue herhaal word. Mense slaan die hand aan die ploeg, maar draai later weer om. As jy afvallig geword het, kom terug na Hom wat jou nooit sal verstoot nie. “Ek sal hulle afkerigheid genees, hulle vrywillig liefhê.” (Hosea 14:5). Waar u gaan, sal Ek gaan, sê Rut aan Naomi. As Hy jou lei na ‘n siel vir wie Hy wil hê dat jy moet help, sal jy gewillig wees? So nie, gaan eers op jou knieë, vra die Here om bereidheid voordat jy weer sing: “Waar Hy lei, daar sal ek meegaan.” “Waar u vertoef, sal Ek vertoef,” gaan Rut voort. God roep nie almal om ver te gaan nie, maar wil dat ons in ons eie huis moet getuig. As Hy in die biduur vertoef, vertoef jy saam met Hom? U volk is my volk, is die belofte van Rut aan haar skoonmoeder. As alle gelowiges dit ook wil sê, dat hulle voortaan nie in dieselfde juk as wêreldlinge sal trek nie, maar die volk van God by voorkeur sal opsoek. Daar is te veel wat met die wêreld vriende maak en daardeur baie van hul geestelike krag inboet. Van Orpa hoor ons nooit weer nie; Rut se keuse word tot vandag toe genoem. ‘n Toegewyde lewe word nooit vergeet nie. In die oneindige ewige toekoms, wanneer van al die aardse heerlikheid niks sal oorbly nie, sal die “verstandiges glinster soos die glans van die uitspansel, en die wat baie tot regverdigheid lei, soos die sterre vir ewig en altoos” (Daniël 12:3). Lewe vir die ewige dinge. - Ds. Johan Marais (Louis Trichardt Baptistekerk)

ZOUTPANSBERGER, 1 JULIE 2022

Bekende bewaringsman sterf na tweede beroerte Deur Andries van Zyl Die skielike dood van die welbekende Tiny Sinden (59) van Louis Trichardt het as groot skok gekom vir familie en vriende. Hy is die afgelope naweek oorlede ná twee beroertes in minder as ‘n week. Tiny se steeds hartseer eggenote Leonie het Dinsdag aan die Zoutpansberger gesê dat haar man verlede Woensdagaand ‘n beroerte gehad op hulle huurplaas Zyfergat (Bandelierkop). Sy was in daardie stadium by haar seun Hardus op ‘n plaas in die Waterpoort-omgewing en was onbewus van die gebeure. Leonie sê sy het verlede Woensdag omstreeks 19:00 nog met Tiny gepraat. Toe sy hom later die aand weer skakel, kon sy hom nie op sy foon in die hande kry nie. Sy het aangeneem hy het aan die slaap geraak. Nadat sy hom die volgende

oggend steeds nie op sy foon kon kontak nie, het sy gevra dat vriende asseblief moet gaan kyk wat aangaan. Die nuus was nie goed nie. Met Leonie se aankoms op hulle huurplaas het vriende Tiny reeds in ‘n bakkie gelaai. Alle aanduidings was dat hy ‘n beroerte gehad het. “Hy het my ‘n glimlag gegee en ek het hom gedruk daar waar hy in die bakkie gesit het,” het Leonie gesê. Tiny is opgeneem in die Zoutpansberg Privaathospitaal vir behandeling. Volgens Leonie het sy toestand aanvanklik verbeter. Dit het alles Sondag verander toe Tiny blykbaar ‘n tweede beroerte gekry en ‘n paar uur later gesterf het. “Ons het soveel planne gehad. Hy het soveel planne met die kinders gehad,” het Leonie gesê. In die Soutpansberg het Tiny geen bekendstelling nodig nie as gevolg van sy jarelange verbintenis met die Departement van Omge-

Op hierdie ouderdom begin ek soos wat ek by my pa se huis uitgeloop het – arm, en ek moet van vooraf begin,” het Tobie gesê. Sy plan was om sy besigheid tot op ‘n sekere ouderdom te bedryf en dan te verkoop. “Maar dit is wat dit is ... jy kan net soveel gee, dan het jy nie meer om te gee nie,” het Tobie gesê. Maar te midde van die hartseer verlies van sy besigheid sê Tobie hy bly positief. “Maar dit gaan nie oor hoe jy val nie, dit gaan oor hoe jy opstaan.

ZOUTPANSBERGER, 1 JULY 2022

Moenie met hierdie slap rieme gevang word nie Deur Andries van Zyl Te midde van stygende lewenskoste en ‘n swak ekonomie raak mense al meer desperaat om ‘n ekstra geldjie te in; so ook die kriminele. Wat dit be tref doen gerugte van ‘n paar slenters weer die ronde. Een van hierdie slenters is ‘n vrou,

ene Janine Cheryl Talotti, wat ‘n duursame, egte leer sitkamerstel op die Tzaneen/Duiwelskloof Snuffelgids groep op Facebook geadverteer het. Dié stel sou blykbaar in Louis Trichardt gewees het. So het dit gekom dat ‘n vrou van Tzaneen lelik gevang is, met haar vriendin van Louis Trichardt wat die Zoutpansberger geskakel het om mense

belangstel, so as sy wil hê sy moet die stel vir haar hou, dan moet sy vir haar ‘n R500 deposito betaal,” het Frieka gesê. Janine het ook vir Marie foto’s van die buitekant van haar huis in Louis Trichardt, foto’s van die leer sitkamerstel en ‘n kopié van haar ID gestuur. “Toe doen my vriendin dit. Sy het die R500 deposito oorbetaal,” sê Frieka. Marie het toe vir Frieka gevra of sy nie net na die stel wil gaan kyk nie, aangesien die vrou in Louis Trichardt is. Op die foto’s het die stel nog in ‘n goeie toestand gelyk. Die adres wat Janine opgegee het, was Heystekstraat 40. “Ek het toe vir Janine geskakel om te hoor of sy by die huis is. Die vrou het egter gesê sy is nie by die huis nie, want haar man se bakkie het gebreek en hy het haar nog nie kom haal nie. Allerhande stories,” het Frieka vertel. Met dié het sy vir Janine gevra om haar te laat weet wanneer sy weer by die huis is, sodat sy na die stel kan gaan kyk. Dit was ongeveer voorverlede Maandagaand. Die volgende dag het Frieka ook niks van die Janine gehoor nie. “As ek bel, dan antwoord sy nie. Haar foon gaan onmiddellik oor na ‘n stem bood skap. Ek het vir haar ‘n WhatsApp ook gestuur, maar dié het ook nie deurgegaan nie,” het Frieka gesê. Verlede Donderdagmiddag, so teen 17:00, het Frieka egter besluit sy gaan na die adres toe ry. “Die huis het dolleeg en verlate gestaan, blykbaar vir ‘n geruime tyd al. Maklik al twee of drie jaar. Waar hulle die mooi foto’s van die huis gekry het, weet ek glad nie, maar die huis lyk beslis nie meer so nie. Dit was bouvallig en die vensters was stukkend. Dit was duidelik dat daar al vir baie lank nie meer mense in daardie huis bly nie,” het Frieka gesê. (By verdere ondersoek is gevind dat die foto’s van die huis wat aan Marie gestuur is van Google

Bo: ‘n Foto van die huis wat die swen delaar aan Marie gestuur het wat haar adres aangee as Heys tekstraat 40 in Louis Trichardt. By nadere ondersoek is gevind dat die vrou die “street view” foto van die huis van Google Maps afgetrek het. Die foto is in 2010 geneem. Foto verskaf. Regs: Die huis hoe dit werklikwaar daar uitsien – verlate, met stukkende vensters en dit is duidelik dat niemand al vir jare daar bly nie. Foto verskaf.

Maps afgetrek is en terugdateer tot 2010. “Wat sleg was,” het Frieka vervolg, “was dat Janine weer vir Marie gekontak het en vir haar ook gesê het haar man se bakkie het gebreek. Dit was nou nadat sy dit vir my gesê het. Sy het toe vir Marie gevra of sy nie nog R500 kon oorbetaal nie, aangesien haar man sy beursie en bankkaart in sy kantoor vergeet het. Marie wou weet wat ek daarvan dink? Ek het toe vir haar gesê: ‘Hou verby! Ek ruik ‘n rot!’. Gelukkig het Marie nie nog geld oorbetaal nie,” het Frieka gesê. “Janine” het daarna geen oproepe geantwoord nie. “Ek dink die vrou het haar misreken. Sy het nie gedink Marie ken iemand in Louis Trichardt wat gaan kyk waar die stel is en hoe dit lyk nie,” het Frieka gesê. Frieka het gesê sy wonder hoeveel mense die vrou uitgevang het? “Die adres is daar, maar daar bly niemand in die plek nie. Ek weet ook nie waar kom sy aan die foto’s van die stel nie. Ek weet ook nie waar kom sy aan die ID nie? Dalk is dit iemand se ID wat sy gesteel het?” het Frieka gesê. Sy het inwoners gewaarsku om versigtig te wees. “Dit is ‘n goed uitgedinkte slenter! Sulke helle!” het Frieka gesê. In die proses het haar vriendin R500 verloor. Hierdie was egter nie die enigste slenter wat die afgelope week die ronde gedoen het nie. ‘n Werknemer van ‘n plaaslike bloemiste het die Zoutpansberger ook laat weet dat ‘n man met die naam Jan haar geskakel het om blomme te bestel. Hy het nooit gekom om die blomme te haal of te betaal nie, maar wel gebel en gevra of die werknemer hom nie kan uithelp met lugtyd nie. Gelukkig het die vrou geweier om die lugtyd te koop. Die man het van die nommer 063 117 5005 geskakel. “Hy sê hy is ‘n oom, maar hy klink nie te oud nie. Dalk is daar ander mense wat hy ook probeer uitvang,” het die werknemer gesê.

Nanda will be remembered for her caring and dedication By Andries van Zyl Family and friends said farewell with great sadness to much-loved Nanda Truter of Louis Trichardt who passed away on Wednesday, 22 June, after losing a 14-month battle with cancer. She was 56 years old. Nanda was diagnosed with cancer on 20 April 2021, for which she received aggressive treatment, including radiation and chemotherapy. The treatment was unsuccessful, however, and she returned home about two weeks ago to spend her last days with her family. She died with her husband, Kevin, and all her children around her. “Nanda accepted it and all the children accepted it. We could speak about it before the time,” said Kevin. Kevin, Nanda and their children moved to Air Force Base Makhado in June 2014 after Kevin was appointed the base’s aviation safety officer. He himself is a decorated member of the South African Air Force, having served as a fighter pilot from 1981 to 1991. Nanda’s parents came over from Holland and stayed opposite the Truters in Pretoria. After school, Kevin joined the South African Air Force and the couple got married in the Waterkloof Officer’s Mess in 1987. “She was a home executive from the beginning. She wanted 15 kids, but we stopped at five,” Kevin remarks jokingly. The five children, eldest to youngest, are Brendan, Vicky, Chantelle, Keagan and Jennavieve. Since the family moved to AFB Makhado, they quickly made friends. Nanda really enjoyed the base life and lived out her passion for nature and immense interest in birds. “We had the biggest ecosystem in our garden … We had more trees in our yard than everyone else ... So Nanda used to feed all the birds. They had water and we even had owl boxes,” said Kevin. Nanda also had a great love of photography and used it to document her bird sightings. She also loved taking sunset photos. “We have hundreds of photos of sunsets she took,” said Kevin. Nanda’s children remember her for the caring and dedicated mother she was. “She was our communications officer. She spoke to all the kids, whether they were in Johannesburg, Pretoria, Paarl, Stellenbosch … calling every morning to ask: ‘How are you doing?’ She was brilliant. She knew where everybody was,” said her chil-

dren. They also fondly remember their mother for the Speculaas she loved making to treat the family. Speculaas is a traditional Dutch spiced shortcrust biscuit. The family thanked all who contributed, in whatever way, to Nanda’s care and wellbeing during her sickness, especially all the medical personnel involved. They also thanked all those who supported them through messages of condolences after Nanda’s passing. They did not want to single out specific people. A private memorial service for Nanda was held by her immediate family only. Her ashes will be strewn at a place of the family’s choosing at a later stage. She is survived by her husband Kevin, her five children (and spouses of those married) and one grandchild.

Laerskool Louis Trichardt het in die tweede kwartaal ‘n fondsinsameling gehou ten bate van die Makhado Care Group. Die Triegies het ongeveer R20 000 ingesamel. Leerders kon oor ‘n tydperk van vier weke elke week ‘n knopie (button) wat ‘n waarde uitbeeld, aankoop en dit dan op hul krae dra. Afgeneem is die skool se hoofseun, Rogan van den Berg, en hoofmeisie, Mienke Burger, saam met dr. Casper Venter (middel) wat namens die Makha do Care Group die skenking in ontvangs geneem het.

Battle of Delville Wood commemorated July 2022 marks the 106th anniversary of the Battle of the Somme, one of the bloodiest battles in human history. Between 1 July and 18 November 1916, more than one million men were wounded or killed on the banks of the river Somme in France. Among the soldiers killed and injured were more than 2 400 South Africans who fought for control over a small piece of land in the northeast of France, called Delville Wood. On Sunday, 17 July, at 11:00, a special service will be held at the Moths’ Turbi Hills Shellhole to commemorate Delville Wood and to pay tribute to the South African soldiers who lost their lives during his war.

PROJECT BACKGROUND Following receipt of the EA issued by the Department of Mineral Resource and Energy on the 06 of March 2020, the public and other stakeholders were accordingly informed of the decision . Subsequent to the engagements, appeals were submitted to the Department of Forestry, Fisheries, and the Environment (DFFE) and were eventually dismissed. As part of the appeal phase, the DFFE recommended that further studies, i.e. the Climate Change Impact Assessment (CCIA) be undertaken and the EIAR updated to include impacts of climate change. The updated report and the CCIA are therefore prepared and submitted for review in line with the recommendations from the DFFE.

Paralympic bronze medallist Sheryl James from Louis Trichardt has been selected as part of the approximately 190-member South African team to take part in the 2022 Common wealth Games in Birmingham at the end of July, beginning August. For the first time in history, the games incorporate both able-bodied and para-athletes at the same games. The announcement of the team took place at SASCOC House on 8 June. Nine para-athletes are in the team and events are limited for these athletes, so Sheryl is only running the 100m on 2 August. She is competing in a mixed category, where the others are T38 class and she is T37, so Sheryl is up against stronger athletes. She is, however, is looking forward to the challenge and is honoured to have the privilege of competing for South Africa at these games. Pictured is Sheryl during a recent training session at the Peter Mokaba stadium in Polokwane. Photo supplied.
