AfriForum warns that pollution of water source constitutes a severe criminal offence

Test shows water unsafe

By Linda van der Westhuizen

The Vhembe District Municipality (VDM) was not very helpful when the civil rights organisation AfriForum came to test the water quality of the new boreholes in Makhado (Louis Trichardt) on 28 February.

Only then did they admit that they had already taken water tests, of which the results showed that the water of some boreholes was unfit for human consumption. “Hydrocare is busy installing chlorinators at the four new boreholes,” said VDM spokesperson Mr Moses Shibambu on Tuesday.

AfriForum’s head of environmental affairs, Mr Julius Kleynhans, and their Limpopo or­ ga­niser, Mr Tiaan Es­ terhuizen, visited the town on Wednesday and Thursday last week. They were taken on a tour by the local AfriFo­ rum exco to visit a couple of sewage hotspots and the boreholes.

“What I observed so far is typical of the low 23% green-drop score of Limpopo and typical of management that is not pro-active in terms of main­ tenance and upgrading,” Kleynhans said afterwards.

“This alone constitutes a criminal offence,” said Esterhuizen on seeing the sewage river, which is, inciden­ tally, just 50m from the newly drilled

borehole in President Street.

“There is a chance that pollutants could enter the water table,” Kleyn­ hans said. According to them, the offence of polluting a water source could in some cases lead to a sentence of five years’ imprisonment or a fine of R5 million. That could be the out­ come of a lengthy process, involving the green scorpions, a possible direc­ tive by the Minister and court action.

Local AfriForum chairperson Mr Wally Schultz explained that the contempt-of-court legal process with regard to the lack of a consistent water sup­ ply between certain hours every day would take its due course.

“In the meantime, we are starting to tackle the sewage problem, which could lead to a criminal charge,” Schultz said.

During the visit to the current waste-water management plant, an official confided to Kleynhans that six pumps were not in working order.

The AfriForum team estimated that the plant was less than 50% operational.

Kleynhans took water samples from the sewage river near President Street, the President Street borehole, the new caravan park borehole, and The borehole in President Street is a mere 50m from a sewerage river. The VDM’s own results showed that the water in at a municipal tap in President Street. this newly drilled borehole was unfit for human consumption.

Non-payment sparks strike on State farm

More than 100 farm workers from a community-managed farm in Levubu went on strike after a third month of non-payment.

The workers, who are all employed by the Masakona Community Property Association (CPA), claimed that they had not been paid since December. As a result, they say, they had to start borrowing from a matshonise to make ends meet.

At an interest rate of 50%, all their funds were quickly tapped dry.

The farm on which they work forms part of several Levubu farms that were sold to the govern­ ment’s Lands Claims Commission from 2000 to 2003 in a willing-seller-willing-buyer settlement.

The workers decided to march to their head office in Levubu last Thursday when they did not receive their salaries. “We are tired! These people promised long ago that they would fix this [pay our salaries] … now we will go talk to the big boss,” said one of the workers, Mr Freddy Nkuna, on Thursday.

He, together with the other farm workers, marched Almost 150 farm workers, employed by a community farm, went on strike last week in order to to the farm’s administrative office and demanded get an explanation from CPA directors as to why they had not received payment for three months. to speak to the directors of the company managing the farm, as well as the CPA-members.

By Linda van der Westhuizen Masakona Farms, as far as the newspaper was able to determine, is managed by Sharp Move Trad­ ing CC, in conjunction with the CPA. The CPA are members of the community who were selected to 17.1 and 0 for boreholes 1, 2, Thus the water of the boreholes represent the interests of the community.

When the livid mob of workers arrived

on the farm, there was already a police presence to keep a watchful eye on developments. At first, the CPA-members refused to speak to the workers.

After about an hour and a half, they sent the work­ ers’ negotiator, Mr Gideon Mukwevho, with a list demanding that workers write down their names if they intended to return to work the following day.

Those workers who refused to come back to work were threatened that they would be fired. At this point, the police intervened to help calm tempers, and the CPA-members and directors eventually made an appearance and addressed the crowd.

According to the chairperson of the CPA, Mr Peter Mhawela, the farm is still awaiting an R4.7million grant from the government, as well as money that is outstanding from the South African Revenue Services (SARS). Afterwards, he and other CPA-members were approached and asked to elaborate on statements made during the meeting.

They refused to comment. “We are not at liberty to talk to you,” they told the reporter.

The transplantation of about 80ha of banana trees and a delayed avocado harvest were also offered as excuses for the farm’s cash-flow problems. Work­ ers, after listening to these explanations, proceeded to have a meeting with Chief Cecil Malovhana.

On Monday, they reached a decision and reported back to work. According to Mukwevho, the work­ ers have declared, however, that they will strike again if they don’t receive their salaries by the end of March.

The strike comes amidst the announcement of the new minimum wage for farm workers, which is in effect from this month. Several commercial farmers in the area have already indicated that they are in the process of retrenching a large number of their work force, simply because they cannot afford the new wages which have, in effect, almost doubled since the pervious year.

Families verpletter ná honde-vergiftiging Twee gesinne van Makhado (Louis Trichardt) is verlede week geruk deur die skynbare sinnelose vergiftiging van hul troeteldiere.

Beide families woon in Kiaatstraat en beide se honde is ‘n paar dae uitmekaar doodgemaak, ver­ moedelik met ‘n snelwerkende gif. Teen druktyd is daar nog gewag op die uitslag van toetse van die staatsveearts om te bepaal watter soort gif die honde ingekry het.

Die eerste honde wat vergiftig is, was die lief­ linghonde Rassie en Vlekkie van die Loots-egpaar.

Dit was verlede Vrydag. Oudergewoonte is Vlekkie, wat by die egpaar in die huis bly, uitgelaat om haar bene te rek.

Kort hierna het die drie-jaar-oue Vlekkie skeefOom Jan Loots by die karkas van Rassie, die gesin se 13-jarige hond, nadat iemand hom vergiftig het. Hy is kort ná die gesin se ander hondjie Vlekkie, wat ook vergiftig is, dood.

skeef by die huis aangekom. Die bediende het dadelik vir Oom Jan geroep. Hy het probeer om vir Vlekkie melk in te jaag, maar sy is in ‘n kwessie van minute dood.

“Ek het nog omgedraai en vir Rassie gesê, ‘Ai, nou is jou maatjie dood,’ toe sak hy ook inmekaar,” het Oom Jan vertel. “Mens is lief vir die diere; ek beskou dit as moord.” Oom Jan het die saak Vrydag by die polisie, asook die plaaslike Dierebeskerm­ ingsvereniging (DBV), aangemeld.

Die volgende dag is mev. Ria Bronkhorst se Yorkie, Giesela, vergiftig. Haar dogter Marisa het Giesela probeer help, nadat sy gedink het daar sit iets in die hondjie se keel vas. Marisa is in die proses aan haar duim raakgebyt. Die gif wat Giesela ingekry het, was so sterk dat Marisa ook siek geword het. Haar polsslag het afgeneem en sy moes mediese behandeling by die privaathospitaal ontvang.

Ria het by haar seun Henk, wat ook oorkant Oom Jan bly, gekuier. Henk se Pekinese hondjie is drie weke gelede vergiftig. Daar word vermoed dat die gif wat Giesela ingekry het, eintlik vir Henk se Jack Russel bedoel was.

Giesela is op pad veearts toe dood. “Ons is baie hartseer oor Giesela. Hoe kan mense so iets doen aan ander mense se troeteldiere?” wou Ria weet.

Intussen het Oom Jan gesê dat hy die saak nie net so sal los nie. “Ek het ‘n vermoede wie dit is, en sodra die toetse van die veearts terugkom, gaan ek toesien dat daar verder ondersoek ingestel word,” het hy gesê. Hy is van mening dat dit nie misdadigers is wat die hondjies vergiftig het met die oog daarop om in te breek nie. “Dit is mense wat nie lief is vir diere nie,” het hy gesê.

Mnr. Lawrence Khodobo, plaaslike DBVinspekteur, het gesê daar kan eers verder ondersoek ingestel word as die toetse van die staatsveearts terugkom. Sulke toetse neem tot ‘n week om af­ gehandel te word.

Die ongeluk het op die hoek van Munnik- en Songozwistraat plaasgevind. In die proses het die speurder met mnr. Riaan Erasmus gebots. Die ongeluk het weereens die fokus geplaas op die grootskaalse probleem van mense wat verkeersligte en stopstrate in die dorp ignoreer. Niemand is ernstig in die ongeluk beseer nie.

Atletiek-fiasko bring einde aan SA-drome A total of five shops in the Maranatha Centre fell prey to burglars last Friday. Pictured are some of the shop windows that were smashed in the process.

The burglars left a path of destruction as they rampaged through offices in their attempt to find cash.

Burglars hit five shops in one evening The SAPS in Makhado (Louis Trichardt) are still investigating the spate of break-ins which occurred at the Maranatha Centre in Burger Street last Friday.

During the early hours of 1 March, five busi­ nesses fell prey to burglars. These businesses

included, among others, a local attorney’s office, a cash loan business and Rirothe Trading & Invest­ ment, which is the company in charge of the new parking systems in the town’s CBD. All the offices that were targeted were on the ground level of the two-storey complex. Allegedly, the security gate that separates the downstairs of­ fices from the upstairs offices was left unlocked.

The thief/thieves gained access into the offices by punching a hole through the first office’s wall.

This proved to be an easy task, as all the offices are separated by drywalling. From there, they smashed out glass panels from neighbouring offices and left a trail of destruction in their wake.

Mr Dominic Mahlangu from Rirothe Trading said that the burglary had affected them all. “Not all of us have insurance and we will have to carry the losses ourselves,” he said. It would seem that the criminals were only looking for cash. Comput­ ers and other electrical equipment were not stolen.

“Dit voel soos terrorisering” Een van die talle gesinne in Makhado (Louis Trichardt) wat sukkel om sin te maak van die dorp se haglike watersituasie, is die Oosthuizengesin van Joubertstraat.

Dié gesin sit reeds sedert 27 Februarie sonder water. Mnr. Gerhard Oosthuizen, beter bekend as Wors, is nou behoorlik keelvol en sy ma, mev. Ria Oosthuizen, voel asof daar geen lig aan die einde van die tonnel is nie.

“Hier is nie ‘n druppel water vanaf Woensdag laasweek nie. Ons wasgoed stapel op, ons kan nie bad of toilette spoel nie en ons moet by die bure water vra - dit is totaal onaanvaarbaar! Daar kom net niks, niks water uit die kraan nie. Ek kan nie vir iemand verduidelik hoe frustrerend dit is nie.

Dit voel soos grootskaalse terrorisering,” het Ria Dinsdag gesê.

“Hulle moes die ouens [van die wateroutoriteit] al lankal toegesluit het, want hulle loop bo-oor ons en organisasies soos AfriForum wat probeer help.

Almal soek nou optrede!” sê Wors.

Die Oosthuizens se huurder het uitgetrek en is terug Rand toe.

“Sy het gesê die water [of gebrek daaraan] maak haar mal en sy is nie gewoond om so te lewe nie,” sê Ria. Sy sê verder dat hulle drie grootmense is en dat haar wasgoed al hoe meer ophoop. “Ek weet nie wat maak mense met klein kindertjies nie,” sê Ria. Intussen het meer as een inwoner, wie se kinders aan die Noordwes Universiteit se Potchefstroom kampus studeer, berig dat hulle kinders huistoe gestuur is omdat daar nie water in Potchefstroom is nie. Die ironie is nou dat die studente na hul tuis­ dorp teruggekeer het, waar daar ook nie water is nie.

“Dit lyk of die mense nie die erns van die saak besef nie. Dis regtig nie dat ‘n mens elke dag kla nie, maar genoeg is genoeg!” sê Ria. Die plaaslike AfriForum-tak is dit ook eens dat die wateroutoriteit nie die erns van die saak besef nie. Die voorsitter, mnr. Wally Schultz, wat ook al by geleentheid vir die Oosthuizens water gebring het, het hierdie week weer beklemtoon dat die Vhembe Distriksmunisipaliteit (VDM) se ampte­nare nie die watersituasie ernstig genoeg opneem nie. Die regsproses van minagting van

die hof het reeds ‘n aanvang geneem, nadat die hofbevel ten opsigte van watervoorsiening nie stiptelik en voldoende uitgevoer is nie. Die proses is aan die gang om amptenare in hulle persoonlike hoeda­nigheid aanspreek­ lik te hou.

Die VDM het op 2 Maart laat weet dat die Albasinidam se pypleiding na

Makhado (Louis Trichardt) ernstige waterlekke het en dat hulle tegniese dienste die lyn gesluit het, totdat herstelwerk voltooi is.

“Die watervoorsiening sal hervat word sodra die lekke toegemaak is, “ het die VDM gesê.

“Ons wasgoed stapel op, ons kan nie bad of toilette spoel nie ... Ek kan nie vir iemand verduidelik hoe frustrerend dit is nie. Dit voel soos grootskaalse terrorisering,” het mev. Ria Oosthuizen Dinsdag gesê, nadat hulle vanaf 27 Februarie geen water in hul krane gehad het nie.

Rhino poaching now a priority crime Rhino poaching is now a priority crime.

This was confirmed by Environmental Affairs Minister Mrs Edna Molewa, ahead of the 16th Conference of the Parties to the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) in Thailand. This top-level meeting of the world’s major environmental bodies started on Monday and will conclude on 14 March. Molewa spoke at a Cabinet meeting last Thursday.

The decision to make rhino poaching a priority crime was made by the National Joint Operations Centre, due to the fact that a total of 128 rhinos have been killed since the beginning of the year.

This is far more than the 80 that were killed in the corresponding period last year. The operations centre is co-ordinated by the Directorate of Priority Crime Investigations.

By this week, according to the Kruger National Park’s statistics, the park has lost 92 rhinos. Other provinces that were hard hit included North West, which lost 12, another 12 in KwaZulu-Natal and eight in Limpopo.

Molewa also said Cabinet had emphasised the need for more technology, especially unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), by the anti-poaching forces. These forces include SANParks rangers who are supported by elements of the South African National Defence Force (SANDF), as well as po­ lice, customs and excise inspectors from the South African Revenue Services (SARS) and a number of non-governmental organisations.

Currently, the SANDF is deployed for border protection in the KNP. Where manpower allows, soldiers assist rangers in anti-poaching operations.

The South African Air Force (SAAF) has also made some of their assets available in the war against poaching. At the same time, SANParks chief executive Dr David Mabunda said intelligence and its gathering, which has proven successful, as well as community involvement, would also be heightened. This would be done by bringing home to neighbouring communities the importance of protecting the rhino in an effort to deny poachers, couriers and others involved safe passage in and around the KNP. Last year, poachers killed 668 rhino in South Africa, with the KNP losing 425. Between them, KwaZulu-Natal, Limpopo and North West col­ lectively lost 202 rhino last year, with both private and provincial game and nature reserves targeted by poachers.

‘n Oud-inwoner van Makhado (Louis Tri­ chardt), mnr. Eddie James, is Vrydag 1 Maart na ‘n kort siekbed aan nierversaking oorlede, kort nadat hy in die Letaba Hospitaal opgeneem is. Die familie wil graag almal bedank vir die talle SMS’e, oproepe en boodskappe wat ontvang is. Foto verskaf.

A silent terror stalks society

Cashing in on power

S

oweto, Kliptown - “C a r e f u l h e r e .

Watch out there. The earth is live,” warned Kabelo as he moved through the narrow alleyways.

Kabelo and his partner, John, are just two of the many “street electricians” using their qualifications and experience to cash in on households, small businesses and residents across Johannesburg, offering them cheap electricity. Cheaper electricity in this instance of course means stolen.

Kabelo and John are always on

They charge a flat rate of R200 as a connection fee. There are even “maintenance fees” ranging from between R50 to R100 a month, and there is a cost for replacing wires if these are burnt.

Despite the dangers that they pose, illegal connections and the tampering with or bypassing of power meters remain the choice of many residents and businesses to access electricity.

Some are motivated by the need to have access to electricity, others

Whatever the reason given to justify this criminal behaviour, the fact remains that it’s a breeding ground for criminals to “build their businesses” and cash in on this practice. It is a crime that has become a societal norm, but has a dire impact on fair competition in business and agriculture, puts innocent lives at risk, and interrupts the power supply that must keep the wheels of the economy turning.

The crime is not unique to informal settlements and townships. It affects suburbs, businesses and farms, where the theft is more difficult to detect and requires a trained eye to spot the carefully call when residents and businesses claim poverty, and some are purely t a m p e r e d m e t e r s a n d t r a n s f o r m e r s . need to connect electricity or fix a m o t i v a t e d b y g r e e d t o r e a p m o r e A campaign is under way to combat malfunctioning illegal line. electricity theft and is in hot pursuit profits for their businesses.

of perpetrators like Kabelo, John and their customers. The mission of Operation Khanyisa is to mobilise all South Africans to become legal, safe and efficient power users.

The campaign’s approach is not only to address culprits, but also get law-abiding citizens to acknowledge their responsibility and inspire them to take action against electricity theft.

Operation Khanyisa has teamed up with Crime Line to provide a platform for South Africans to report electricity theft anonymously. By sending a detailed SMS to 32211 (R1/SMS) South Africans can help combat electricity theft.

“Dit kos my nou R250 vir ´n gratis koerant,” was die verontwaardigde kommentaar van prof. Dries Bester. Dit nadat ´n elektriese hek by sy woning in Tambotiestraat in Makhado (Louis Trichardt) vasgehaak en uitgebrand het, toe ´n weekblad wat gratis versprei word, by aflewering bo in die hek ingesteek is. Die opgerolde koerant het die hek laat vassteek toe die inwoners wou uitry, en in die proses het die elektriese motor uitgebrand. In die foto demonstreer hy hoe die koerant in die hek gesteek is. Bester het gesê inwoners moet maar versigtig wees oor waar hulle mense toelaat om “gemorspos” in hul heinings te druk.

Marked decrease of malaria in Limpopo

Forever Resorts, partnering with the Free Wheelchair Mission, are distributing wheelchairs to the communities surrounding their resorts. Their mission is to transform lives by sharing the gift of mobility with the physically disabled indigent in developing countries as motivated by Jesus Christ. In this regard, 20 wheelchairs were distributed to the Fountain of Hope Wellness Clinic at the Musina Hospital. Pictured from left to right are Messrs Samuel Munyai, Rendani Makungo (occupational therapist), Johan Blignaut (manager of Forever Resorts Tshipise) and Justice Ranoto (assistant). Photo supplied.

The Limpopo Province has shown a marked de­crease in the number of malaria cases the past year.

This is according to a press release by the pro­ vincial Department of Health and Social Develop­ ment. During the period April 2012 to February 2013, a total of 848 malaria cases were recorded in Limpopo, compared to the 2 991 reported cases during the 2011/12 period.

January to March is normally the period when malaria cases increase sharply in Limpopo, mainly due to travel during the festive period and the rainy season.

“This year, however, malaria cases remained at lower levels, even though Limpopo experienced severe flooding during January. For January and February 2013, 307 malaria cases were notified, compared to 1 189 in 2012,” the department said.

Although the malaria cases are at lower levels,

the department warns that the potential always exists for increases to occur during the summer.

“In order to detect these and manage possible outbreaks, the Department of Health has sensitive surveillance systems in place. Malaria-control spray teams are also active throughout the prov­ ince and can respond to increases quickly,” the department states.

Due to the fact that Limpopo is a known malariaprone province, the provincial department says they are fully prepared to deal with all malaria cases.

“All primary health care clinics are fully equip­ ped to deal with malaria patients at community level, with malaria tests and treatment available at all clinics. All hospitals are also prepared to deal with more severe malaria cases,” the department says.

The department’s main malaria control inter­ vention, namely indoor residual spraying, is also actively busy conducting spraying in all the af­ fected areas.

“Over the past five months, more than 700 000 structures have been sprayed in the malaria risk areas. Teams are still busy conducting spraying in affected communities and to raise the aware­ ness about malaria in the communities,” states the department.

Eulanie du Plessis, dogter van Leon en Eulien du Plessis van Makhado (Louis Trichardt), het op 8 Desember in die huwelik getree met Coen Fourie, seun van Coen en Francoiette Fourie van Brits. Die huweliksbevestiging is in die AP Kerk Louis Trichardt deur ds.

Gert Kruger waargeneem. Die egpaar woon in Potchefstroom. Foto verskaf.

Hendrik het dadelik gesê hy kan voel as ons vir hom bid.

Ten spyte van liggaamlike swakheid staan hy nog sy plek vol as vader in sy huis en ook in die gemeenskap.

Green Farms Nut Company herdenk hul mondigwording!

Teen die einde van 2012 het die merkwaardige 21ste jaar van toegewyde diens aan die plaaslike Makadamia neutprodusente in die Soutpansbergstreek vir Green Farms Nut Company aangebreek.

Die geleentheid is luisterryk gevier by die fabriek waar die produsente heerlik meegemaak het in die gees van samewerking en voordeel vir almal.

Geskiedenis

Green Farms Nut Company (PTY) Ltd (GFNC), is gevestig in 1991, toe die eerste klein Makadamia neutverwerkingsaanleg in privaatbesit, geopen is in Hazyview, deur Alan en Jill Whyte, Levubu boere, saam met ‘n vennoot, Rodney Green, ‘n Makadamianeutboer van Witrivier.

Die tweede verwerkingsaanleg vir Makadamias is in 1992 gevestig in Levubu, in vennootskap met

mnr Mark Kirk-Cohen en mnr Frans Prinsloo. In 2007 is die finale verwerkingsaanleg vir Maka­ damias in Ramsgate Kwa-Zulu Natal, geopen, in vennootskap met plaaslike boere.

Al die fabrieke word bedryf volgens die hoogste Voedsel Veiligheids Akkreditasie en bestuurstel­ sels, naamlik HACCP (Hazard Analyses & Criti­ cal Control Points), tesame met ISO 22 000, wat verseker dat die beste gehalte gelewer word onder veilige voedselverwerkingstandaarde.

In 2008 het die Whytes en Green families die ander vennote uitgekoop en hulle toegewy om die maatskappy te bestuur om ‘n Makadamia besigheid van wêreld klas gehalte te vestig.

Groot beleggings het gevolg om die Levubu- en Witrivier fabrieke uit te brei en toe te rus ten einde die 211 Makadamiaprodusente, te bedien en om te

Van links na regs is Werner van Niekerk, Jill Whyte en Jacques Bouwer.

Die Makadamianeutbedryf in die Vhembe streek dra by tot werkskepping, sosiale verbetering, die oordrag van vaardighede en die verdeling van welvaart!

Die aanplant van Makadamiabome in die Soutpansberg-streek het gelei tot suksesvolle oeste, met ‘n jaarlikse inkomste in die omgewing van R350 Miljoen. Dit het gelei tot verbeterde lewensomstandighede vir die inwoners van die streek deur werkskepping. GFNC het die geleentheid gesien om opkomende boere te help in die verband, deur die aanplanting van Makadamiabome. In 2009 het GFNC hulp verleen aan 15 opkomende Vhembe-boere ter bedrae van R1,1 Miljoen. “Die bome is nou drie jaar oud en begin dra. Wanneer hulle in volle drag kom teen 2016, kan ‘n 10Ha goed versorgde boord, konserwatief gereken, 30 ton Makadamianeute lewer, teen R25/kg op die plaas sal dit ‘n inkomste, na aftrekkings, verseker van R500 000/jaar, ‘n goeie inkomste vir ‘n klein familie”.

voldoen aan die veeleisende internasionale voed­ selverwerkingstandaarde.

Op die bemarkingsfront het GFNC in 2010, saamgesmelt met ‘n Makadamia verwerkings en bemarkingsmaatskappy van Australië, Suncoast Gold, om ‘n spesialiteits bemarkingsmaatskappy, Green & Gold Marketing(G&G), te vestig.

“Die gevolg was die vestiging van die grootste enkele verskaffer en bemarker van Makadamia neute in die wêreld, met toegang tot al die ver­ naamste Makadamia aanplantings in Suid Afrika en Australië,” volgens mnr Brian Loader, Algemene Bestuurder van Green & Gold Marketing.

Boonop het Stahman Farms Enterprizes, ‘n toon­ aangewende Australiese verskaffer en verwerker van boomneute, onlangs hulle kragte saamgesnoer met G&G om sodoende ‘n aansienlike bemarkings­ voordeel te bied, met die gevoglike verstewiging van ons posisie wêreldwyd.

Hierdie onderneming het daarin geslaag om wêreldwyd, toonaangewende verskaffers in spel te plaas, doelgerig om die beste mededingende aankope aan Sjinese agente van Makadamianeute, pryse te bekom, met ‘n verlaging in koste, deur die verteenwoordig reeds 25% van die Suid Afri­ toepassing van grootmaat kragte en die vekorting kaanse oes.

Dit on­ saamgestel is om die maksimum voordeel aan ons dermyn die grootskaalse prosessering van neute verskaffers te verseker. “Ons doelwit is om die in ons fabrieke met die gevolglike verlies aan beste prys in Suid Afrika, op die plaas te betaal,” arbeidsgeleenthede aan die Sjinese.

Advertorial

Green Farms Nut Company celebrates its 21st anniversary!

Green Farms Nut Company (PTY) Ltd Ce­ lebrates its 21st anniversary!

The end of 2012 marked the 21st anniversary of Green Farms Macadamia Nut Company (GFNC) as well as 21 years of commitment to the local Macadamia nut producers in the Soutpansberg area.

The occasion was celebrated at the factory with suppliers sharing in the spirit of mutual cooperation and benefit.

History

Green Farms Nut Company (PTY) Ltd, was established in 1991, when the first small privately owned Macadamia processing plant was opened in Hazyview, by Levubu macadamia nut farmers Alan and Jill Whyte, together with partner Rodney Green, a Macadamia farmer from White River.

In 1992, our second plant was established in Levubu, together with Mr. Mark Kirk-Cohen and Mr. Frans Prinsloo, and finally in 2007 the Ramsgate factory was opened in Kwa-Zulu Natal in partnership with local farmers.

All the factories have the highest Food Safety ac­ creditation management systems, namely HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points), and ISO 22,000, ensuring food safety, and a superior quality product. In 2008 The Whyte and Green families bought out the other shareholders and committed to driving the company to become a world class macadamia business.

Major investment in factory upgrades was undertaken to expand the capacity of the Levubu and White River plants, to service our 211 grower suppliers, and to comply with cutting edge inter­ national processing standards.

In 2010, GFNC joined forces with an Australian macadamia processing and marketing company, Suncoast Gold, to create a specialized marketing company “Green & Gold Marketing” (G&G).

“This has resulted in the biggest single marketer of Macadamia nuts in the world, with access to all the major growing regions in South Africa and Australia,” said Mr. Brian Loader General Manager of Green and Gold Marketing.

Furthermore, recently Stahmann Farms Enter­ prises, a prestigious Australian tree nut growing and processing company, has joined forces with G&G, providing a considerable marketing advantage and further strengthening our position world-wide.

The joint-venture has succeeded in targeting

major retailers internationally and is structured to attain the most competitive prices and reduce costs wherever possible, by harnessing economies of scale, and reducing the supply chain costs.

Future

Another one of GFNC’s strengths is our busi­ ness model, which is uniquely structured to benefit farmers. “Our goal is to pay the best farm gate price in South Africa” says Jill Whyte, CEO, GFNC, “Our suppliers participate 100% in the final share of profits at the end of the season, after costs have been deducted, a reconciliation is done on the sales and exchange rates achieved. This “profit share” is a very beneficial structure for farmers as it allows them to participate in profits further down the supply chain. In ad­ dition through our unique “batch system” good growers are rewarded for top quality product”.

The future of the South African macadamia industry relies on the mutual co-operation of farmers and processors alike.

Challenges exist in the form of high electricity and labour charges, which account for over 50% of factory running costs, and excessive nut in shell (NIS) sales to Chinese traders. The purchase of macadamia nuts by the Chinese Traders already accounts for approximately 25% of the SA crop, in the short term, the competitive environment has kept prices boyant. However, the export of nut in shell has far reaching consequences, it undermines economies of scale in processing plants, and could result in job losses in our country, due to the nuts being cracked in China.

If this trend continues, it may lead to under­ mining our traditional markets who will seek product from China to fulfil the shortfall from local factories. It could also result in the South African industry losing control of their own product, to the eventual detriment of the farmer.

Once traders have control, there will be a drop in price, (as has been manifested in the pecan indus­ try and others) as well as losing jobs and creating an unstable society. Allowing local and foreign traders to climb on this gravy train, is a short term strategy and GFNC warns of the effect this has had in the Mozambican cashew industry.

Kenya have recently put a ban on nut In shell exports for this very reason.

The Macadamia Nut Industry in Vhembe district is contributing to job creation, Social upliftment, skills transfer and the distribution of wealth!

Macadamia trees have been a very successful crop in the Soutpansberg, where they bring an annual income into the area, in the region of R350 million. This uplifts the community as it provides significant job creation, and has paved the way for Green Farms Nut Company to assist emerging black farmers in planting macadamias. In 2009 Green Farms provided R1,1 million worth of support to 15 farmers in Vhembe.

“The trees are now three years old, and starting to bear. When they come into full bearing in 2016, 10Ha of well cared for macadamias can conservatively yield 30 tons, and earn an income of approximately R25/kg ex farm gate or R500 000/year after farming costs, a good income for a small family.”

The future?

GFNC’s long-term strategy is, to continue to be the market leader in South Africa, to provide farmers with excellent prices, and service, so that they can continue to farm and plant macadamia nuts with confidence. Above all GFNC upholds outstanding ethics, integrity, transparency, and adheres to the spirit of free enterprise. As farmers ourselves, we understand the need for a successful farming community, not only in expanding agriculture and local business, but for the future development and progress of local communities. GFNC is committed to achieving these long term goals.

We look forward to sharing another exciting and remunerative season with all our farmer partners in 2013!

Green Farms Nut Company management and staff thank their valued suppliers! With great appreciation to our wonderful farming community who year upon year, produce excellent quality nuts, we sincerely wish to thank you for your support over the last 21 years!

We would like to take this opportunity to thank all our suppliers, employees and associates for their continuous support over the years, which has allowed us to grow into the largest macadamia processing and marketing company in South Africa. This has permitted GFNC to consistently provide Macadamia farmers with a processing service, sustainable prices and technical support in Southern Africa.

Brian Loader, managing director from Green & Gold.

Die wynglas moet regop kan staan ...

D

ie berig “Salarisse vreet miljo­ ene” in die Zoutpansberger van 22 Februarie verwys.

Oor alle eeue heen is daar bevind dat ‘n regeringsbestel wat gebaseer is op die korrekte wynglas beginsel, beslis ‘n kans tot oorlewing het.

Kortom …

Solank die glas regop staan, weerspieël die klein voetstuk basis ‘n klein effektiewe regering wat deur die steel uitstekende ekono­ miese geleenthede aan die groot inhoudsgedeelte van landsburgers bied, wie op hulle beurt so instaat gestel word om belastings te betaal wat sorg vir genoeg fondse vir alles wat gedoen moet word. Sou die glas onderstebo tuimel, het jy groot inhoudsmaat van oneffektiewe beamptes wie geen geleenthede bied nie, maar steeds deur ‘n klein belastingplig­tige burgerlike instan­ sies gedra moet word. Duidelik weerspieël ‘n omgekeerde, onder­ stebo wynglas natuurlik totale verni­ etiging vir veral Afrika state.

Miskien het dit tyd geword dat Suid-Afrika weereens ‘n deurbraak van ‘n nuwe “hartoorplanting” bewerkstellig! Dit is bekend dat veral in Griekeland drie uit elke vyf werkers in regeringsdiens is.

Die swak ekonomiese toestande en werkloosheid wêreldwyd word deur niks ander dan groot staatdiens­ organisasies bewerkstellig nie.

C

Raak ontslae van alle amptelike wonings wat in alle gevalle nie instand gehou word nie. Stel geen permanente amptenare aan nie, maar slegs tydelike aanstellings vir ‘n sewe jaar termyn. Na ses en ‘n half jare, evalueer op meriete die vermoëns van ‘n amptenaar. Kan bewys gelewer word dat hy/sy wel jongeres deeglik opgelei het, word hulle beloon met ‘n verdere diensty­ dperk tot en met tien jaar, andersins moet hulle plek maak vir nuwe be­ amptes. So kry ieder en elk kans om vir sewe jaar te spaar, verdienstes te hê en jouself as gese­lekteerde, hardwerkende beamptes te bewys.

Terselfdertyd staan jy ‘n kans om verplig te word om weens swak prestasie na sewe jaar ruimte te skep vir nuwe werksoekers.

In enkel goed deurdagte gevalle mag na behoorlike meriete aanslae, sekere beamptes as “geselekteerde beamptes”, amptelik vervoer ontvang, asook moontlik amptelike wonings.

Daarom dat buitensporige staats­ dienssalarisse reeds die meeste salarisskale van die private sektor verby­gesteek het, moet dit sterk oorweeg word dat amptenare soort­ gelyks die privaatsektor, vir hul eie lewenskostes en vervoer moet voorsien.

Sekere dienste, polisie, ambu­ lanse, brandweer ensovoorts, asook vele andere bly dienste wat op staatsvervoer geregtig sal wees, maar beslis op ‘n uitstekende, gekontroleerde basis. Wat het dan geword van die ou Z83 munisipaleen staatsdiensaansoekvorm? Alle munisipale en staatsdiensposte was onderhewig aan dieselfde salaris­ skale regdeur Suid-Afrika soos per spesifieke kategorië.

Die Weg, die Waarheid en die Lewe

Matt. 8:14-22 - Waar is jou bed?

Vers 20 - Jesus sê vir hom: “Jakkalse het gate en voëls het neste, maar die Seun van die mens het nie eens ‘n rusplek vir sy kop nie.”

O

p watter bed slaap jy? Ek veronderstel dit is ‘n gemaklike bed vir ‘n goeie nag se rus. Ek en my vrou slaap op ‘n koningin-grootte bed met ‘n ferm matras.

Bokant ons bed is ‘n waaier wat ons koel hou in die somer. Maar daar is mense wat nie ‘n bed het om in te slaap nie en wat op sypaadjies, onder brûe en elders moet slaap.

Die gedeelte van vandag herinner ons dat Jesus nie ‘n permanente woning gehad het toe Hy begin preek en leer het nie. Jesus het baie gely vir Sy mense. Hy het geweet wat dit is om sonder ‘n bed te wees.

Alhoewel Jesus die Skepper is, was Hy ook sonder ‘n permanente tuiste, nêrens was daar ‘n rusplek vir Sy kop. Jesus het baie gely voor Sy kruisiging. Dit is goed om dikwels daaroor na te dink. Die kruis was die klimaks van Sy lyding vir Sy mense.

As jy ‘n Christen is, wys jou liefde vir Jesus deur Sy gebooie te gehoorsaam.

Dank Hom oor en oor vir wat Hy vir jou gedoen het. As jy nie ‘n Christen is nie, vra Jesus om in jou lewe te kom as jou Verlosser en Saligmaker.

Mag jy die genade van God in jou lewe ervaar.

Deur Linda van der Westhuizen

Kliënte, nie onderdane nie, waarsku AfriForum Hofsake teen munisipaliteite is iets waarvan al hoe meer gehoor word. In die mees onlangse geval het AfriForum hul Verbruikerswet-saak oor munisipaliteite wat diensverskaffers is, gewen.

Uitspraak is in AfriForum se guns gelewer om die vrystelling van sekere munisipaliteite van bepalings van die Verbruikerbeskermingswet op te hef. Lae- en medium-kapasiteit munisipaliteite is vanaf 28 Maart nie meer vrygestel van dié wet se bepalings nie. Belastingbetalers van nie-prester­ ende munisipaliteite het nou meer skietgoed in hul stryd om dienslewering. “Dit is nie net ‘n oorwin­ ning vir AfriForum nie, maar vir almal in die land wat keelvol is vir swak munisipale dienslewering,” het mnr. Kallie Kriel, uitvoerende hoof van AfriFo­ rum, in ‘n persverklaring gesê. Kriel het bygevoeg dat inwoners kliënte van munisipaliteite is en nie hulle onderdane nie. Munisipaliteite moet inwoners se verbruikersregte respekteer.

Die voorsitter van die Nasionale Belastingbetal­ ersunie, mnr. Jaap Kelder, het gesê dat dit goeie nuus is dat alle munisipaliteite nou onderhewig is aan die Verbruikerswet. Kelder waarsku egter dat die “hoë-kapasiteit” munisipaliteite of metrorade al vir twee jaar aan dié wet onderhewig was, maar dat dit nie ‘n verskil aan hulle diensle­wering gemaak het nie. “Die uitspraak kan egter meer wetlike gronde daarstel om weerhouding te regverdig of om krediete vir nie-gelewerde dienste te eis,” het Kelder op 2 Maart gesê.

Intussen is die Hooggeregshof saak tussen die Soutpansberg Belastingbetalersvereniging (SBBV) en die Makhado Munisipaliteit oor kragafsnyding, wat op 18 Februarie aangehoor sou word, uitgestel.

Die SBBV het op 3 Februarie laasjaar ‘n dringende tussentydse hofaansoek gebring dat die munisipali­ teit van hulle lede se krag, wat afgesny is, moes aanskakel. Die munisipaliteit het gekom met ‘n voorlopige skikkingsvoorstel wat aanvaar is en het

lede se krag aangeskakel. Intussen het die munisi­ paliteit hul teenkanting geliasseer. Die regter sou op 18 Februarie moes besluit of die voorwaardes van die skikkingsvoorstel permanent gemaak moes word. Dit sou daarop neerkom dat die munisipaliteit nie die SBBV-lede se krag mag afsny terwyl hulle in dispuut met die munisipaliteit verkeer oor dienste wat nie behoorlik gelewer word nie.

Die voorsitter van die SBBV, me. Inga Gilfillan, het verlede week gesê dat hul advokaat besluit het om die saak te laat uitstel, in afwagting van die Konstitusionele Hof se uitspraak in die me. Olga Rademan-saak.

Die saak van Rademan van Kroonstad teen die Moqhaka Munisipaliteit is op 5 Februarie in die Konstitusionele Hof aangehoor. Net soos die SBBV, hou die Moqhaka Belastingbetalers ook hul heffings en eiendomsbelasting terug weens swak munisipale dienslewering. Hul munisipaliteit het egter Rademan se geld wat sy vir elektrisiteitsver­ bruik betaal het, teen haar uitstaande heffings en belasting afgeskryf en haar krag afgesny. Uitspraak is voorbehou.

Court News

Case postponed On 28 February, the Louis Trichardt Magistrate’s Court postponed the case against four men, who were arrested in connection with an alleged planned rhino hunt at a farm in the Waterpoort area.

Mushimi Musiamo (29), Albert Mawela (34), Richard Misili (40) and Edmond Ramukgopa (37) appeared in court and their case was postponed to 5 April, pending further investigations.

The four men were arrested on 13 January during a joint operation. All four men are out on R5 000 bail.

Policing

Soldiers shoot man A 27-year-old man was allegedly shot at by members of the South African National Defence Force (SANDF) and later died at Musina Hospital on 25 February.

According to the po­ lice, the driver of a bak­ kie had at least nine illegal immigrants and two South African citi­ zens on the back of his vehicle. It seemed that he had failed to stop at a road block conducted by the SANDF members in the vicinity of the Ar­ ton Villa Corner, along the Maladrift Road, at around 04:10.

“According to our pre­l i­m inary informa­ tion, the SANDF mem­ bers had fired shots,” said Mudau. “As a re­ sult, a male occupant was struck in the private parts, chin and shoul­ der.” Mudau added that the driver had proceeded to the hospital, where the injured man was cer­ tified dead upon arrival.

The deceased was later identified as Ronewa Ocean Mbedzi.

Laerskool Louis Trichardt het ‘n rugbyklub gestig waar die ouers ‘n belangrike rol speel en met nuwe dryf en inisiatiewe vorendag kom. Die rugbytruie is ook gestandaardiseer en al die spanne speel met dieselfde truie, behalwe die eerstespan, wat ‘n breë, skuins wit baan op die trui het.

Die klub bedank die borge wat dit moontlik gemaak het dat hulle die nuwe truie kon bekom.

In die voorste ry is rugbyspelers wat die nuwe truie vertoon, met twee eerstespanspelers in die middel. Agter, van links na regs, is mnre. Felix Malan (voorsitter van die rugbyklub), Louis Linde (skoolhoof), Greg Stewart (sporthoof) en Werner Boshoff (afrigter en verskaffer).
