New pipeline
for TukakgomoTubatse Chrome this week han ded over a
new water pipeline to the commu nity in
Tuka kgomo as par t of the companys social
investment projects.
The new pipeline is meant for the h ighpressure transportation of household water
from the source to the reservoir on the hill
at Tukakgomo as th e old pipeline started to
give a lot of problems. Members of the the
community, the tibal autority and
representatives of the company, engineers
who built the pipeline and members of
Tubatse Chrome management gathered at
anoth er of the companys projects in the
area, Tubatse Classrooms, where Mr
Andries Nieuwoudt explained th e project to
guests.
He said t he old pipeline , constructed
about 30 years a go by the company, gave
problems because not only was it u sed for
feeding the reservoir, but a lso used for
further ret iculation in the villages. The
purpose of the new pipeline was only to
feed the the res ervoir. The old pipeline willnot be removed as at still has to play an
importan t role as a reticulation pipe. The
new feeding pipe is totally sealed from th e
source to the reservoir and n o need exists
to tap int o this pipe. The old pipe will from
now on only take wa ter from the r eservoir
into the villages.
After a hearty brunch at Tukakgomo
Classrooms, all the guests proceeded to the
pipeline where it could be seen sur facing
from the ground next to the road at the hill
where the reservoir is situat ed.
At the site the general mana ger ofTubatse Chrome, Mr Desmond McManus,
officially han ded over th e pipe t o
representatives of Greater Tubatse
Municipality and members of the
community.
The local governm ent will from n ow on
administrate all matters around the
pipeline in conjunction with grea ter
Sekhukhune District Municipality who is
responsible for water provision in th e area .
Representatives of the municipality, the
tribal authority and m embers of the
community thanked the company for its
contr ibution towards s ocial upliftment in
the a rea a nd echoed Mr McManus handing
over message that the company will
continu e to engage with the local
ciommunities in the area and t o work
together with communities towardseverbodys m utu al ben efit.
Earlier Mr N ieuwoudt t old Platinum
Gazette that Tukak gomo Classrooms, a
new facility, will prima rily be used for
adult basic education and training and t hat
the company is in th e process to establish a
committee within the community to
manage the facility.

Long before Johann Sebastian Steadtler founded his own pencil manufacturingplant in 1835, one of his ancestors, Friedrick Steadtler, had already been activeas a pencil maker. Records of this ancestor of the company STEADTLER canbe found in the public records of the city of Nuremburg, Germany, as far back as1662.With the foundation of the company in Nurembergs old quarter in 1835, Johann
Sebastian Steadtler laid the groundwork for the modern and world-renownedSTEADTLER group of companies, adapting the experience and knowledge inthe traditional handcraft of pencil making gained in the workshop of his father,Paulus Steadtler, to industrial production.By around 1840, J.S. Steadtler produced 63 different kinds of pencils. By 1866,
54 workers were employed.In the year 1900, the product name Mars was registered with the Imperial
Patent Office. What began as a trademark for a high product standard is today abrand distinguished by the same qualities world wide: innovation, precision,reliability and superb writing comfort. As such, STEADTLER became one of theworlds leading manufacturers and suppliers of writing and drawing instruments.
In 1949 STEADTLER broke new ground and began munfacturing ballpoint pens.One year later the company introduces the first leadholder, a pencil with a solidbarrel and releasable lead, the forerunner of the fine lead mechanical pencil. Inthe following years STEADTLER continued to expand its range of writinginstruments, progressing from mechanical pencils (1955), to technical pens(1962), to felt-tip, fibre-tip and overhead projector pens (1964) all the way to finelead mechanical pencils in 1969.For more than 170 years STEADTLER has beenone of the leading manufacturers and suppliers of
writing and drawing instruments the world over.

On the morning of 26 December the black smoke was one of the major indicators that afire was still raging inside the shop. Photograph: Duan Craffert.
The biggest and longest burning fire in the
history of Burgersfort t ook with it Supa
Save on th e morning of 26 December 2009.
Nobody was injured du ring the blaze.
The fire started in the early hours of themorning and quickly spread through th e
shop towards the warehouse.
Highly flamable deodorants, can ned foods
and cooking oil caught fire and cau sed
explosions within th e building.
A major fire fighting operat ion was
underway quickly after the fire was
reported. The local fire fighters were a ided
in their efforts by th e proto teams from
Modikwa Platinum Mine an d Tubatse
Ferrochrome.
Teams from Middleburg and the Greater
Sekhukhune District also came to help in
the effort.
One of the major obstacles was t he fact
that there is no fire hydrants close by to
refill the t ank s used to fight the fire.
For more than a week the Greater Tubatse
Fire Brigade took tu rns in watching that
the fire do not spread to other buildings in
the area.
We would like to th ank the wh ole
commu nity, the fire fighter s, our staff andeveryone who helped us a nd is still
supportin g us. We ask people to please
pray for us, said Mr Anees Arbee
yesterday.
He also confirmed th at they will open a
smaller st ore where the old Score used t o
be in th e BBS building (above Fresh Pick
and Fash ion World). This is expected to
open somewhere in Febru ary. They will
also keep most of their sta ff employed.
The long term plan is to rebuild the store,
said Mr Arbee.
He added th at t hey are still investigating
what caused the fire, but that a team of
forensics and an investigator ruled out
arson.
The estimated damage is still being
calculated.

Not a tarred road, but villagers of Ga-Moraba between Strydom Tunnel and Leboeng can now again use the access road to their village after heavy
rains caused the road to wash away next to the storm drainage pipes in November last year. The villgaers were angry about what they saw as shabby
service delivery and still maintain that they were promised a tarred road by the government. On the face of it the repairs to the storm water system
looks quite sturdy, with local rock (of the same kind villagers use to block the road when they are angry) used in the construction to give it extra
strength.
Do not bribeA man who tried to bribe a member of the Police earlier this month, was
sentenced to three months in prison by the Praktiseer Magistrates Court
on 11 January. The whole sentence was suspended for three years.
According to Tubatse Police the man, Zackeus Tshepiso Mafane was
stopped at a road block in Bothashoek just outside Burgersfort on 8
January. He was found driving a taxi withiout a professional driving
permit and the taxi was also carrying an overload of passengers.
He offered the Police official R100.
On 09 January the Police in Tubatse arrested a 27 year old man forallegedly hitting his 46 year old sister with an unknown object on the
head after they had an argument. The incident happened at Ge-Matodi
village. The man was charged with assault with the purpose to inflict
grievous bodily harm. The suspect appeared in court in Praktiseer on 11
January and granted bail of R1000. The case was postponed to 02
March.

Small march, big problemThe r esidents of Kutu llo village, which forms pa rt of Ga-
Malekan e (Ward 27) say they ha ve a serious problem with
a lack of water in t heir village.
More specific their village is situa ted between t he new
De Hoop Dam an d the steel bridge on the road to Jane
Fur se when you tra vel from Roosseneka l to Steelpoort.
They say they relied on a pump for reticulation, but at thisstage the pump is not working .
One resident told the n ewspaper if you do not have a
water tan k an d pay people to fill it up, you do not have
water . People on the other side of the river (the Ja ne
Fur se side) do not suffer so much, because a num ber of
them h ave boreholes. We complained about the issue at
our ward councillor. before th e elections last year , we
were promised a lot of things, an d the pu mp was fixed, but
soon after th e election it broke down again. Since then we
are st ruggling with water supply. Our ward committee
also do not functioon as it s hould because most of the
members of the committee do not h ave problem with
water.
As a result of their problem, a number of residents has
decided on Tu esday t o march t o the wa rd councillor house.
This m arch of ours is pea ceful the group, most of them
who just k nocked of from work a t 17:00, told the
newspap er. We are just tr ying something so tha t
somebody may listen an d give attent ion to our pr oblems.The also do not have electricity, but that was not the issue
on Tuesday . We will worry about tha t one at a later
stage. Now the water is the biggest problem.
We must car ry water from the river. Since they
started with the construction of the De Hoop Dam, the
water is conta minat ed with oil and other stu ff. We get
diarrh oea, we cann ot drink it a s it is not good for us.

More than 70 accused from severa l villages
in th e vicinity of Leboeng who ar e in
trouble because th ey blocked the road
between Ohrigstad an Strydom Tunn el
with stones and rocks towards the end of
last year, appeared in the magistrates
court at Leboeng again this week.The ar e charged with p ublic violence
and contravention of the Gatherings Act.
The reas on why the blocked the r oad is
primar ily, according to them , poor ser vice
delivery.
In particular they complain about a
lack of water reticulation, bad a ccess roads
to their villages, a lack of electricity and
incompleted RDP pr ojects.
The respective cases against tem has

Praktiseer.
The group has been split in thr ee
groups, with the group from Mapareng
appearing in court on 3 March, while theother two groups from other villages are
still waiting for court dates in February.
We do not know why t hey split u s one
of the accused told Platinum Gazette. We
will go and see a lawyer to get clarity. We
were arrested together an d appeared in
court t ogether at first. We do not know
why they do this he said.

Are you going to watch the2010 is the year of the F ifa World Cup.
South Africa will be hosting this m ajor
event bringing hundreds of thousands of
soccer enthusiasts into the country.
However, local organising committee CEO,
Mr Danny J ordaan recently expressed his
concern a bout th e slow sale of tickets
featuring Bafana Bafana and other African
countries.
Especially games featur ing South Africa,
Cameroon, Algeria, Ivory Coast, Ghan a
and Nigeria have had slow ticket sales.
According to J ordaan South Africans have
a culture of buying tickets at the last
minute.
A certa in am ount of tickets were allocated
for sa le to South Africans. Fa ns a pply for
tickets and are awarded th e tickets
through a r andom draw process. That is
why South Africans could still get tickets t o
the opening an d final games of the event .
Applications can be made un til 22 Janu ary
2010.
In an attempt to boost ticket sales, Jordaan
and h is committ ee are now consideringselling tickets over the counter. This would
mean tha t a fan can walk in at a t icket
outlet and simply buy a ticket to a game
over the counter.
We asked readers whether they already
have bought t ickets to a Bafana Bafana
game or are planning to buy a ticket.
Mnr. Pieter OReilly s: Ek hou nie vansokker nie. Sokker het geen kultuur nie,so ek gaan nie kaartjies koop of kyk nie.
Mr Patrick Magoro said: I dont haveenough cash to buy a ticket. I am stillwilling to buy, but Bafana Bafana hadsuch a decline it is disappointing towatch. They are not the same team theywere with Clive Barker.
Mnr. Migael de Lange s: Ek kyk niesokker nie en ek was nog nooit eens by nrugby wedstryd nie. Ek woon nie sulkesportgeleenthede by nie.
Ms Theliza Makua said: Id rather watch it on TV. We are too far away from thestadiums where the games are being played. Its better to watch it with family andfriends at home. With her are Kenzani Makua and Bonolo Makua.
Ms Cecelia Makofane said: I dont knowhow to buy a ticket, plus Ill have to workso I wont be able to go.
Me. Christa Loubser s: Ons is meerkrieket en rugby kykers. Ons het niekaartjies nie.
Mnr. Pieter Dreyer: Ek sal dalk nog nkaartjie koop. Ek weet nie.
Mnr. Hennie Potgieter s: Nee, ek gaannie kaartjies koop nie. Ek moet na mensese huise kyk terwyl hulle sokker kyk.
