Mall collapse ignored?Cope councillor questions role of Tongaat Civic Association in follow­up of mall collapse

KAVEEL SINGH

Reports of ‘low-key’ construc-tion having started at the ill-fated Tongaat Mall site have

sparked contention between a localcouncillor and the Tongaat CivicAssociation (TCA) president.

Workers Zakithi Nxumalo andZwelibanzi Masuku were killed and29 others were injured when thethird floor of the construction site

collapsed in November last year dueto alleged structural inadequacies,which led to an enquiry beinglaunched.

Cope councillor Steven Naidoosaid that since the last TCA publicmeeting in late November last year,there have been no followups on thisissue.

“At that meeting it was decidedthat wewould form a sub-committeeto ensure we closely follow up on

this matter and provide the commu-nity with feedback. However, no onefromtheTCAhascontactedusorpro-vided an update since.”

A clearly irate TCA chairperson,Jeeva Pillay, hit back, saying it wasnot the responsibility of the associa-tion to take on the matter.

“The suggestion to form the com-mittee came from the floor not fromthe members of the TCA.”

Naidoo reacted after he allegedlyreceived queries regarding building

commencement at thesite.

“I have furnished a number of re-ports from concerned residentswhosay they witnessed low-key buildingcommencing. This is of great con-cern to us and we need to take upthe matter as soon as possible.

“There was talk about account-ability when the incident occurred,yet we do not have any form of com-munication from the [TCA] regard-ing followupmeetingsor forming the

“We require this body to take theinitiative and have a senseofurgencyon the matter.”

“Police responded immediately

and gave chase.“Officers stopped the vehicle

and when the driver got out hehad a firearm in his hand.

Pillay said thathe had sent anemail to the officeof the city manageron the mall issue,but did not receivea response to date.He said updateswere not given be-cause most staffwere on leave inDecember and Jan-uary.

Whenasked if hewas saying it wasnot the TCA's re-sponsibility, Pillaysaid it was. “We aresaying yes, we arehere to help. Butweare also furnishinghigh bills for tele-phone accountsand runningaround.”

Pillay said thepublic needed to at-tend meetings ifthey want to holdthe association re-sponsible.

“The TCA is onlyas strong as its con-stituency. And webarely have one.Even for the publicmeeting we held onthe mall issue bare-ly anyone turnedup.”

JUGGIE GOVENDER

USE an allocated book that’s accessibleto the whole family. Drawing up a bud­get on a piece of paper that will be lostwithin a day is not going to help youmuch.

When drawing up a budget, writedown your biggest and most essentialexpenses in the left column, such asaccommodation (mortgage or rent, aswell as cost for building maintenance)and your transport (car repayments,

car insurance, car maintenance, travel­ling expenses). Then add things likeutilities (water, lights and landline),communication (cellphone, internet),insurance (short and long term), debt(credit cards, loans and store cards),savings, school fees, groceries (includ­ing quick runs to the shop for milk andbread), clothes and shoes, pocketmoney and wages for domestic work­er and gardener.

Only after this do you add luxuriessuch as entertainment, books, movies,eating out, holiday and treats. Nowwrite your salary and any other incomein the right hand column.

If your expenses are more thanyour income, you need to draw up anew budget. Cut out non­essentialsand make sure that you stick to it.

Debt repayments take a huge biteout of your budget and will prevent youfrom getting ahead. Become aggres­sive about tackling your debts. Pay allthe minimum monthly payments, butbudget for an extra amount to pay to­wards the debt with the highest inter­est rate. When you’ve paid off thatdebt, use the monthly repayment onthat debt plus extra amounts to tacklethe debt with the next highest interestrate. When that’s settled, move on to

the next debt and so on.If you are impatient and need a psy­

chological push – consider the “snow­ball” method of paying off debt. In­stead of focusing on the debt withthe highest interest rate, deal with thesmallest debt first. It will take muchless time to settle and will give you aconfidence boost to attack the rest.

Remember – don’t incur more debt.Leave credit and store cards at homewhen you go shopping to avoid thetemptation of using credit. Decline ex­tra credit when offered.

Cut up your plastic money if youcannot resist using credit.

How to budget

WE always seem to want those things we don’t have.Things, if we think long and hard, that don’t reallyseem important or necessary.

Moreover, we are often convinced that if we hadthose ‘things’, we would finally be happy.

For example, singletons who want to be in a rela­tionship often believe once they are in one they willfinally be happy. Those in shaky relationships hopetheir relationship will work out because havingworked it out will finally make them happy.

“I will be happy when I am in love.” “I will be happywhen he or she does really love me.” “I will be happywhen I know he or she is committed to me.”

“I will be happy when my husband or wife is moreconsiderate.”

Do these sound familiar?The truth is that happiness is an attitude. It’s not

something created by outside circumstances, but in­stead is completely within our control. This meansthat you and I can be happy regardless of whetherwe are in a relationship or not. We can be happy re­gardless of whether our relationships are workingout or not. If fact, if we cultivate happiness, then ourrelationships will improve.

We will not get that deep sense of satisfactionand happiness we crave just by improving a relation­ship. Nothing will give us that sense of happiness,unless we cultivate it consciously.

No matter how many wonderful things we do tocreate a positive, happy, satisfied life, we could stillend up unhappy. Ultimately, happiness, gratitudeand a feeling of satisfaction is a choice. People oftendo not choose happiness. Many feel refusing to behappy will somehow get them what they want ­ likea child holding his breath. Holding your breath willnot get your what you want. It is happiness that at­tracts...

Astra gets a RE-BOOT

>> New sedan’s design is set toattract the style­conscious

THE all­new Opel Astra sedan has beenreleased in South Africa, marking thereturn of Opel’s C­segment sedan and

the addition of four new models to com­plete the Opel Astra range.

The new sedan, which is based on theOpel Astra hatchback, arrives on South Afri­can shores with guns blazing and a sculptur­al design which is set to attract the style­conscious minds and eyes of compact sedanbuyers.

“The arrival of the Astra sedan to SouthAfrica is significant for GM South Africa asit completes the Opel Astra range and sup­ports our efforts to rejuvenate and strength­

en the Opel brand in this market,” says OpelBrand Manager at General Motors South Af­rica, Chris Cradock.

“This all­new model brings with it an ex­tension – literally – of the chic style and pre­mium quality which the current Astra hatchrange ushered in back in 2010, the sedan ofcourse offering superior luggage space anda similarly beautiful design.”

Featuring the same suave front end, thenew Astra sedan builds on the design suc­cess of the range with the same sleek,smooth lines beginning at the nose, wherea premium look and feel which begins withchrome details in the grille and air dams con­

verges into strong character lines which es­calate sharply into the steeply­raked A­pil­lars.

The clean, fuss­free flanks of the vehicleexhibit a contemporary air, the gradualshoulder line risings.

The slim side window profile joins thesedesign elements in emphasising the lengthand sleekness of the new Astra sedan – in­terrupted only by stylish alloy wheels on allmodels.

By far however, the new Astra sedan’sbest attribute is its new boot

Crafted according to Opel’s latest designlanguage and featuring prominent tail

lights, an integratedboot spoiler and asmart, chrome­platedexhaust outlet, the ad­ditional metalwork hasbeen expertly integrat­ed into the existing As­tra shape, which is now230 mm longer in se­dan form.

Fulfilling their visu­al appeal requirementsbrilliantly, the tail lightsin particular emphasiseclass and quality withunderlying safety ben­efits as well, wherelarge elements andbright lighting contrib­ute to enhanced visibil­ity, besides giving theAstra sedan a com­pletely unique rearlook, especially atnight.

With either cloth orleather upholsteryavailable depending onthe model, all deriva­tives benefit from a sol­id, upmarket cabin withquality materials usedin all areas.

The new Opel Astraarrives in South Africawith a four­modelrange which encom­passes three differentpetrol engines andthree transmissions fora broad spectrum ofchoice and value. Allthree engines are im­portantly part of Opel’sECOTEC® engine fami­ly and all subscribe toEuro 5 emissions regu­lations.True to the Opel badge,the new Astra sedanrange has been devel­oped to provide com­municative yet com­fortable ride character­istics – ensuring thedriver is always confi­dent behind the wheelwhile all occupants en­joy a smooth ride.

Roy Naicker,iLembe's topperforming circuitmanager, shareshis views oneducationsuccess

MERVYN KRISHNA

ILEMBE education officials and principals are all ecstaticabout circuit manager Roy Naicker who took his circuit,Ozwathini in Ndwedwe, to the top of the pile in the iLem­

be District in the 2013 matric examinations.Colleagues and principals heaped praise on him for

his unique style and hard work that he puts into improvingthe running of schools.

Results released by the provincial examinations sectionreveal that the education stalwart achieved the highestpercentage pass of the 14 circuits in the iLembe District.

His circuit, which achieved a whopping 84.56% pass,was higher than both the district pass rate of 72.46%, theprovincial pass of 77.4% as well as the national pass rateof 78.2 %.Naicker’s circuit was the only one in the district to cross the80 per cent threshold. Returning from a successful stintin Scottburgh where he served as circuit manager, Naickertook over the reins of the poorly performing Ozwathini Cir­cuit in the Ndwedwe area in the latter part of 2011 andinstituted a turnaround that saw the results improve tre­mendously.

Naicker gained international recognition for the miracu­lous transformation he achieved as principal of NonhlevuSecondary, whereheturned around a dysfunctional schoolwith a four per cent pass rate into a high flyer, achieving80 per cent in just three years.

His achievements led to him being the first educatorin KwaZulu­Natal to win the coveted National TeachingAward for Lifetime Achievement, beatingoffstiffcompeti­tion from the other eight provinces. It also led to him beinginterviewed by the BBC, which broadcast live from hisschool.

The school was also visited by numerous ministers in­cluding Kader Asmal and was researched by FullbrightScholars from Harvard University from the United Statesand head teachers from Britain.

He continued his work as acting circuit manager of Um­hlali where he achieved the best pass rate amongst the thenNdwedwe circuits and thereafter in Scottburgh where hemoved the circuit he inherited from a lowly 30 per centto over 66 per cent in three years.

Asked how this turnaround was achieved in an under­re­sourced, deep rural disadvantaged circuit in the heart ofNdwedwe, Naicker said: “It’s about teamwork and mutualrespect.”

“Leadership demands that you build a team first andonce the trust is built, that becomes a building block foreverything else you aspire towards. I believe in tough love,I am always firm but fair and my principals believe that Ican help them. We have a singular vision to improve our­selves continuously and we plan and work hard at that. Ihave a wonderful team of principals whom I have the plea­sure to work with.”

Ndwedwe circuit manager OT Skhosana said they werefortunate to have Naicker on their team.

“He displays an exceptional flair for empowering anddeveloping principals’ leadership qualities.”

Freddy Shezi, principal of Qinisani High School, said hisschool made history when they scored a 97 per cent matricpass. Naicker played a major role in our pass rate. He notonly motivated me as a principal, but the educators andthe pupils.”

Commenting on the warm and positive response fromhis principals and colleagues, Naicker said: “I am merelydoing my job, which is to coach, mentor and develop leader­ship, not just in my principals but in my schools.”

isigqoko uDkt Joseph “Mshengu” Shabalala(73)ngokuphakamisaifulegi labamnyamaem-hlabeniwonke jikelele njengoba iqembu lakheiLadysmith Black Mambazo liphinde lahlaba-na okwesine kumaGrammy Awards eLos An-geles, e-United States of America (USA).

Ngokomthetho kufanele ngabe sithi wonkeumuntu ozibiza ngomAfrika, noma ngabe un-gowaluphi uhlanga, kufanele ngabe uzishayaisifubangokubayingxenye yomphakathi okhi-qizaamaqhaweabekaizwekazi lase-Afrikaez-ingeni elilinganayo namanye amazwe.

Angingabazi ukuthi ngesikhathi ufundaloludaba mfundi wethu othandekayo, enyeyezindabaezimnandiezizobezixoxwa, yiyonale eyokuhlabana kwaMambazo aMnyama.

IGrammy Award ilingana ne-Oscar Awardkwezebhayisikobho.

IFEVER ijoyina izigidi ngezigidi zama-Afrikaezihalalisela aMambazo aMnyama ngokuhlaba-na kwawo.

Okuhlaba umxhwele kakhulu ukuthi oku-finyelelise ezikaMshengu Shabalala esicong-weni sentaba kuze kube amahlandla amane,ukubambelelakwawoemculweniwendabuko.

Lokhu kuyisifundo sokuthi uma umuntuebukela phansi okwakubo, akubi lula uku-

phumelela. Yebo, kulungile ukuthi umuntuasabalalise ulwazi ukuze akwazi ukuncintisa-na nanoma ngubani endimeni ayifisayo,nokuthi angaphunyukwa amathuba okubam-ba iqhaza kwezomnotho emhlabeni wonke,kodwa akangezenyezi ngemvelaphi yakhe.

Abaholi bezombusazwe, nabanye abe-fundisibezenkolo,bahlezebeshoukuthi isizweesiphumelelayo,yilesoesazisaokungamaguguaso.

UMshenguubezwakala ukuthi uyaphuphu-ma yinjabulo ekhuluma emsakazweni ngoMg-qibelo, nangenkathi ekhuluma noLe-AnneManas ohlelweni iMorning Live ngoMsombu-luko.Akungatshazwaukuthiukuhlabanakwe-Mambazo kumaGrammy, kuzomenza aqaleumhlalaphansi wakhe kuthe cosololongaphakathi.

Sengathi bangaphaphama bonke labaababukela phansi izinto zomdabu, bacabangekabusha.Kufikiselaamahloniukuzwaumuntuomnyama, lapha KwaZulu-Natal, engakwaziukukhuluma isiZulu.Ngaphezu kwalokho, an-gagciningokungasazikodwaasibukelephansi.Lo muntu ozishaya isifuba ngokwazi isiNgisingaphezu kwesiZulu, uzozifundisani izinganezakhe?

Cabanga nje izingane zibiza indololwanengedolo langemuva ‘in the arm’.

UmnganewamiuNyikinyibhoxo,umfokaN-dosi, wezwa izingane zihleba ngabefundisizithi abanyebacasulangokuthi bathi besashu-mayelabesebelokhubekiphaamadukube ‘su-za’ ngamakhala. UNdosi uthi akabanga nasi-qiniseko noma lezo zingane zazisho ukufinya,zingaqondile ukubhodla ngokhalo.

UMnuz Protas Madlala ongumhlaziyi we-zombusazwe ozimele, uthe amadlozi ase-Afri-ka ayaziqhenya ngokuphumelela kweMam-

bazo. Naye uthe okuphumelelise ezikaMshen-gu ukubambelela kokungamagugu kaZuluhhayi ukuba ngothathekile.

Uthe ukuba abantu bayazi ukuthi isiZulusihlonishwa nokuthi siyigolide kangakani em-hlabeni, ngabe benza konke okusemandleniabo ukuthi singabaphunyuki, kodwa ngeshwabasibukela phansi. Usho nokuthi unezinganephesheya kwezilwandle ezisha amashushungesiZulu kodwa abahleli kwelikaMthaniyaabanandaba naso.

Ngo-l983, uWelcome Msomi ongomunyewabahlonishwayo kwezamaSiko nobuCh-wepheshe,esahlalaeBrooklynkwelase-UnitedStates of America (USA) wahlonishwa ngen-dondo ngumholi wakhona uMnuz Goldinngokugqugquzela amasiko amaZulu.
