BOKMAKIERIE

Privacy ‘invaded’TARREN­LEE HABELGAARN

@LeeLaVidaLoca

Residents feel their privacy isbeing invaded by surveil-lance cameras set up outside

a residential property in Bokmaki-erie.

Residents say they are intimidat-ed and have voiced their disap-proval of 20 cameras being used ona 4th Avenue property.

They believe residents’ move-ments and police are allegedly be-ing monitored on these cameras.

Athlone Community Police Fo-rum spokesperson Aziza Kanne-meyer says the organisation doesnot approve of “spying” and haveasked council and police to inter-vene.

“It makes me sick to know thatwe have been struggling to secureone camera from the City of CapeTown for Athlone and here youhave one house with more than 20cameras. It’s no secret that thosecameras are being used to monitorpeople and police,” she says.

“Why does one person need somany cameras and where does themoney come from? Those camerascost a lot to install and I don’t be-lieve anyone who tries to convinceme the cameras are there for safetyreasons.”

Kannemeyer says crimes are be-ing committed but no arrests arebeing made. She feels that monitor-ing the area and people has assist-ed in hiding crimes.

“We don’t want people to have

cameras at their homes. As for sus-picious vehicles driving around itis becoming more and more fre-quent. It is intimidating and un-nerving when you see people driv-ing around and taking footage ofyou or your home,” she says.

But this is not the only property,says Kannemeyer.

There are at least five suspecteddrug dens that are also set up withcameras, Kannemeyer claims.

Mayoral Committee member forSafety and Security JP Smith saysthere are currently no laws inplace preventing people frommounting cameras on their proper-ty but says it is a challenge they arehaving with crime bosses.

“I resent gangsters and druglords being able to use surveillanceequipment on their property, butthere is no law restricting peoplefrom pointing cameras at openpublic spaces. People may havecameras on their property as longas it isn’t pointed at a national keypoint,” he says.

“We are trying to find a wayaround this problem but in orderto change the laws around camerasit will have to come from nationalgovernment.”

A resident, who did not want hername mentioned for fear of hersafety, says the homeowner is “aknown drug lord” and it is scaryknowing your privacy is being in-vaded.

“When I first heard of all thecameras I didn’t want to believe it.They are basically monitoring our

every move from that property andnow there are people drivingaround [taking video footage],” shesays.

Another resident agrees sayingstricter laws should be put in placeto help police.

“Police and neighbourhoodwatch members can’t do their jobsproperly if the criminals know eve-ry movement taking place aroundtheir property. Police hardly con-

fiscate drugs on raids in Bokmaki-erie and I think the cameras can beblamed. They hide the drugs beforeanyone can remove them becausethey already see them coming.”

Athlone Police Station com-mander Krisjan Verwant says po-lice respond to all incidents as ear-ly as possible but prioritise patrols.

“Cameras are a very valuabletool for police and whenever resi-dents or organisations are able to

implement these aids we welcomethem. But it should not be used toinfringe on someone else’s proper-ty. We know that these cameras arebeing used to see when police enterthe area so that drugs and guns canbe hidden away. They know youare coming before you even enter.It makes our job very difficult,”says Verwant.V Starting with the word “Post”, SMS yourthoughts to 32516. SMSes cost R1.

HEIDEVELD

Residents up in armsTARREN­LEE HABELGAARN

@LeeLaVidaLoca

Answers. This is what Heideveld resi-dents are demanding from wardcouncillor Anthony Moses.

A lack of interest, ignored phone calls,being strung along and no service deliveryare only some of the complaints raised ina public meeting hosted in Cathkin Centreon Thursday night.The meeting follows a march organised

by residents in August as well as numer-ous meetings held by residents who are re-questing that a new councillor be elected

to represent the communities’ needs.Communitymembers said they are tired

of fighting for service delivery and willmarch if no action is taken to better servicedelivery and halt crime in the area.Community worker Vanessa Adriaanse

said it was important for residents to standtogether.“We all want houses and have been on

the waiting list for so long but nothing ishappening,” she said.Here is no facility where we can assist

those with substance abuse problems andhere are limited recreation facilities forour children.”Another resident, speaking on condition

of anonymity, said: “Our councillor has notime or sympathy for residents.”When asked to comment on the allega-

tions Moses said he has done a lot to im-prove facilities and services for residents.“There is so much I have done this year

to improve the community.“I have upgraded a number of parks, we

have refurbished almost all the councilflats in Heideveld, the bridge has been up-graded on the other side, as well as roads.Extra lighting and new pitches have beenadded to the sports field and the CathkinCentre has been buzzing with daily sportand cultural programmes for the youth,”said Moses.Cosatu regional secretaryTonyEhrenre-

ich also attended the meeting.After listening to the community’s griev-

ances Ehrenreich assured residents a fol-low-up public meeting with the councillorwill be held.“It isn’t right for people to struggle for

housing. We all have the right to live com-fortably. Not everyone will be able to gethousing at once but we need to start work-ing with what is available,” he said.

SYBRAND PARK

Fencing problemsTARREN­LEE HABELGAARN

@LeeLaVidaLoca

Improving the lighting under the Klipfon-tein bridge and fixing the fence along therailway line in the same spot has been a

priority issue for Sybrand Park residentsfor months.Robberies, muggings and various other

illegal activities have been taking place un-der the bridge. Broken fencing and in-creased dumping along the railway linehave also made it a health and safety con-cern.Ward councillor Anthea Green informed

residents in the Sybrand Ratepayers’ Asso-ciation’s general meeting on Tuesday thatthe lighting has been approved.“I’m pleased to inform you that lighting

has finally been approved for the bridge andwill be implemented around April andMay,” she said.Green also assured residents that she has

been in contact with Metrorail to addressthe littering and broken fences.“I’ve asked them to clean up the area and

take care of the problems but no sufficientprogress has been made. I will now informthe health department to come and do an in-spection,” she adds.Sybrand Park Civic Association chair-

person Dr Richard Hills said he has alsosent numerous emails to Metrorail and isstill awaiting response.“This has been avery frustrating process.

The fence under the bridge has been brokenformonthsandhas still not been fixed.Theyremoved someof the dirt along the fence butnot enough tomake a difference. The dump-ing has attracted vagrants and other crimi-nal elements especially because the lightinghas also been a problem,” he said.

“It has beengood to see that po-lice have in-creased securityunder the bridgeand the councillorhas been fightingwith us to try andfind a solution butMetrorail has notbeen cooperating.Crime has becomea serious problemin the neighbour-hood and it is im-portant to stop itbefore it becomesa bigger problem.”Regionalmanag-

er forMetrorail Ri-chard Walker saysrepairs areplanned and prior-itised annually interms of urgency and implemented accord-ing to available funding.“The prioritisation is based on a risk as-

sessment comprising a number of criteria.Replacement costs for a concrete palisadefence range between R800 and R1 100 a me-tre,” he says.“Due to the vastness of the region and re-

sources available, replacement and repairshave to be prioritised against other fencingprojects. The region’s horticultural re-quirements far exceeded its available re-sources. Maintenance and clearance of rub-ble and weeds was directed at keeping therailway tracks clear and safe for opera-tions.”Walker says Metrorail continues to moti-

vate for additional funding but the agency

also “continues to compete for finite re-sources”.“Metrorail will try to expedite the clean-

ing of the immediate surrounds of the sta-tion and the repairs of holes on the fence,”he says.Mowbray police spokesperson Warrant

Officer Derek van derMerwe confirmed thebridge has become a hotspot for crime butalso warned residents to become aware oftheir surroundings.Since the beginning of the year there has

been 31 cases of theft out of vehicles, fourbusiness burglaries, three armed robber-ies,two attempted murders and 14 arrestsfor drug-related crimes.V Starting with the word “Post”, SMS your thoughts32516. SMSes cost R1.

MANENBERG

Waiting fortheir paymentTARREN­LEE HABELGAARN

@LeeLaVidaLoca

Pay up or shut downThese are the options contractors

have been left with by locals employedto fix the roads in Manenberg through theExtended Public Works Programme (EP-WP).

Concerns revolving around workers’payment, working hours and the employ-ment of local labourers have residentspushing for urgent resolutions to the prob-lem.

Community worker Anthony Barns con-firms numerous complaints have been re-ceived from residents who feel they are be-ing overworked with outstanding paymentpromised.

“Workers have threatened to go on strikeif they do not receive their outstandingmoney which they claim is owed to themby Construction,” he says.

Workers claim they have not been paidsince June for money they were supposedto receive for working overtime, on publicholidays, weekends and during theholiday.

Site agent Sihle Theta says workers willreceive overtime and adds that a change inpayment policy for the EPWP has causedsome confusion.

“Initially our contract with the City ofCape Town regarding the Extended PublicWorks Programme did not include pay-ment for public holidays. We have recently,however, been informed in writing bycouncil that we need to pay workers forovertime,” he says.

“We subsequently had a meeting withworkers and told them we would pay themfor the holidays worked. We didn’t specifywhen payment will be made but we are inthe process of finalising payments.”

Worker Michael Johnston says he has al-ready planned to use the money to pay offdebts and treat his family during the De-cember holiday.

“We all have things we want to do withthe money and have already made arrange-ments. We have worked the hours and nowwe want the money,” he insists.

Fellow worker Gary Absalom says theyhavehadmanymeetingswithmanagementand will strike if payment isn’t receivedsoon.

“Wewere toldwewouldget paid forwork-ing overtime, but we are still waiting to bepaid. We haven’t received anything sinceJune and there is no proper communica-tion from management’s side,” he says.

“We only get paid for the hours we workbut here isn’t enough equipment for every-one to work. We all want to make moneyand the lack of equipment also causes trou-ble among workers. A lot of workers gohome without any payment some weeks be-cause they weren’t able to work.”

Absalom says it is unfair that workersare suffering because of issues such as alack of equipment that are out of their con-trol.

“Workers aren’t lazy. Everyone herewants to earn some money and provide fortheir families,” he adds.

Miriam Isaacs says she knew it would behard labour when she accepted the job butshe just wants what is owed to her. “Wedon’t want to strike but if we are not in-formed of a final payment date soon we willhave no choice. We haven’t been addressedat all and if we don’t get paid we will strikeuntil we are paid,” says Isaacs.

Theta says: “We thought it best to paythem as a bonus on the last pay day but willtry to have the money available as soon aspossible. There seems to have been a mis-communication.”

Abigail Lawn has been looking forwardto the extra money. “It is almost holidayand the extra money will go a long way inhelping us to put food on the table and buysomething nice for the children. For manyof us this is the only income in the houseand we depend on it,” she says.

“Most of us have worked as EPWP work-ers before and never have we experiencedtrouble with payment before. The extramoney will go a long way in assisting uswith paying for children’s school suppliesin January.”V Starting with the word “Post”, SMS your thoughtsto 32516. SMSes cost R1.

BOKMAKIERIE

Zooming in on residentsTARREN­LEE HABELGAARN

@LeeLaVidaLoca

Footage illegally being obtained has res-idents fearing for their safety and pri-vacy.

Residents living in Bokmakierie, Heide-veld and other high crime areas have no-ticed unlicensed cars driving around in theneighbourhood taking video footage andphotographs of homes and people.

A Bokmakierie resident, who did notwant her name mentioned for fear of hersafety, says it is unnerving when she spotsa car driving around and sees photographsbeing taken.

“It makes me feel very unsafe. I immedi-ately go inside the house when I see a suspi-cious car driving around,” she says.

“I’ve spotted a Toyota and Mazda drivingaround before. Some people think it is thepolice but there is nothing that indicates itcould be authorities. So many people arekilled inside their ownhomes in these areasand one can never be too cautious.”

Mayoral Committee member for Safetyand Security JP Smith says crime preven-tion operations are ongoing.

“The City of Cape Town’s various law en-forcement departments receive multiplecrime tip-offs daily and need to investigateeach one. It is difficult to saywhen someoneis surveillancing an area for crime preven-tion or for criminal reasons,” he says.

“As for footage being taken in residentialareas, unless the camera is aimed at a na-tional key point there are no bylaws inplace preventing people from doing so.”

Another resident says homeowners areon edge and fear that they might be target-ed.

“Why are they monitoring us? It makesme feel like my house or family might beshot at next,” she says.

Resident Harisha Naidoo says she strug-

gles to sleep at night wondering if her fami-ly will be victims next.

“It is creepy knowing that at any momentsomeone can invade your home. I readmosthorrible things in thenewspaper andunfor-tunately crime is high in our areas. Gang-sters rule the streets and keep us hostagein our own homes,” says Naidoo.

Heideveld residents have also been expe-riencing similar incidents and have re-quested police and council to intervene.

Ward councillor Anthony Moses says hehas received many complaints from con-cerned residents.

“I haven’t beenable to give residents feed-back yet on whether the cars drivingaroundare linked to crimepreventionoper-ations or if they are private vehicles driv-ing around,” he says.

“Most people who have alerted me tothese suspicious vehicles driving aroundwere very scared and seemed intimidated.I would like to appeal to residents to takenote of their surroundings and people intheir immediate environments. It is impor-tant for people to get to know their neigh-bours so they can recognise those individu-als who don’t belong.”

Moses advises residents to take down thecolour, model and license plate of any carthey see driving around the area and takingphotographs.“This way it will be easier tokeep a record and determine who it is tak-ing the footage,” he adds.

Manenberg police spokesperson Lieuten-ant Ian Bennett confirms police have alsobeen alerted to suspicious vehicles drivingaround residential areas and taking videos.

“Wehave received complaints of vehiclesdriving around in areas and people takingfootage. This is happening all over the pre-cinct and we are investigating the com-plaints,” says Bennett.V Starting with the word “Post”, SMS your thoughtsto 32516. SMSes cost R1.

HEIDEVELD

Mixed reviewsfor house shopsTARREN­LEE HABELGAARN

@LeeLaVidaLoca

When it comes to supporting houseshops there is a clear divide amongHeideveld residents.

The small business owners say they de-pend on the income to make a living andprovide for their families, while some resi-dents insist it is “nothing but a front for ille-gal activity”.The City of Cape Town recently an-

nounced that house shops operating fromcouncil property were not allowed to beshut down.Mayoral Committee member for Human

Settlements Siyabulela Mamkeli sayshouse shops can only be shut down if LawEnforcement officers are enforcing City OfCape Town bylaws.“Law Enforcement agencies would also

serve notice on request from the HousingOffice when anti-social behaviour is con-firmed. TheCity has received complaints ofillegal activity and investigates all of them.The necessary action is taken if required,”says Mamkeli.A number of community meetings have

been called in the last two weeks regardinghouse shops.A small business committeehas alsobeen

formed by residents to provide help and ad-vice to business owners in the vicinity.Small business committee representative

and house shop owner Ameer Peters saysthe committee was formed to protect the

rights of small business owners in Heide-veld.“We are here to provide people with ad-

vice about all aspects of their business, butespecially to guide people and make themaware of the fact that authorities can’t justwalk in and shut down their business,” hesays.“There are a lot of claims being made

about illegal activity taking place at houseshops but where is the proof? I have beenrunning my house shop for years and Iknow for a fact that there are drugs beingsold. When I see the troublemakers stand-ing in front of my shop I chase them awayand explain I have a business and don’twant to be judged for their reputations. Itis not fair that all house shops are labelledto be bad.”Peters says unemployment is a big prob-

lem in the area and people need to feed theirfamilies.“A house shop is a good way for people

to earn a living and provide for their fami-lies. That is why I want to help people toget their businesses in order and makethem aware of their rights. I’d rather havepeople earningmoney througha small busi-ness than turning to crime.”Resident Riyaad Jacobs insists most

house shop owners are making an honestliving and are judged unfairly by the com-munity.“The drug runners come and stand in

front of house shops and make their ex-changes. As owners we try to chase themaway but they still do as they please. Whenneighbours see the activity taking placethey immediately blame the house shopowner and that is not right,” he says.Manenberg police spokesperson Lieuten-

ant Ian Bennett says there has been anumber of cases during the year wheredrugs were found at house shops.“It doesn’t happen at every house shop

but there has been incidents where drugswere confiscated from house shops,” saysBennett.“Our sector vehicles regularly monitor

activity at these establishments especiallyon weekends.”Resident Martin Fredericks says council

shouldn’t be allowing the house shops to op-erate in the first place. “People shouldn’t beallowed to have house shops in the flats. Itis noisy and disrespectful towards othersliving here,” he says.Resident Ashlee Lategan says she has

witnessed exchanges being made at houseshops.“Moreandmorehouse shopsarebeinges-

tablished everyweek and people are just ig-noring it. Our children are being roped inby gangsters to be runners,” she says.V Starting with the word “Post”, SMS your thoughtsto 32516. SMSes cost R1.

Walk Away: you can be a heroMost children think of their school shoes asthe ultimate burden that completes adreary uniform.It represents 12 years of slog and formany

the first sign of freedom fromwearing thoseshoes is to relegate them to a pile of discard-ed clothes immediately after writing thatlast matric exam. Some may even think ofburning those shoes on a very high fire.But imagine the alternative if you didn’t

have those same school shoes to carry youthrough all the seasons – especially duringour cold winters when you have to negoti-ate puddles of rain?In some families children have to share

the same pair of shoes, with siblings takingturns to wear them.Hard to imagine, right? Not quite.This is the reality formany children from

less fortunate backgrounds. Their parentssimply don’t have the means to scrape to-gether enough money for school shoes. Somany of them go to school barefoot.You can be a hero. You can do so by sim-

ply leaving your school shoes at your deskafter you have written your last exam forthe year.Please ensure you ask your parents’ per-

mission to do so. The shoes need to be inusable condition – nobody should wear bro-ken shoes to school. Tie the shoes togetherso thepairs arenot lostwhen theyareboxedup.People’s Post requests that the shoes areboxed and ready for collection in the newyear.V Participating schools donating shoes can contactPeople’s Post at post@peoplespost.co.za with thewords “Walk Away” in the subject field.

HEIDEVELD

Home goesup in smokeTARREN­LEE HABELGAARN

@LeeLaVidaLoca

A Heideveld family has been left home-less after a fire destroyed their homeand possessions.

It took fire fighters just under an hour toextinguish the inferno at Juliana Court,confirms Fire and Rescue Services spokes-person Theo Layne.“We responded to the fire at 07:00 onMon-

day 17 November. When we arrived on thescene we found a single wood and ironstructure on fire. There were no injuries orfatalities. The cause of the fire has not yetbeen determined.”Minor damage was done to the exterior

of the bottom floor of the council block offlats.Backyard dweller Chantal says she left

her home for five minutes and when she re-turned her home was engulfed in flames.“Iwent into thehouse to use the toilet and

when I came out my wendy house was onfire. The fire department and communitywere at the scene to extinguish the fire. Myfamilywere able to escape just in time,” shesays.“We have lost all our belongings. We

didn’t havemuch to begin with and nowwehave nothing. My child lost their schoolbooks and clothes that was given to them.My heart is very sore.”While investigations are still in progress

to determine the cause of the fire, she sus-

pects the fire could have been started byclothes catching fire.“I was busy heating up porridge for my

son. I believe that if we had a proper houseor access to electricity and water therewould be less risk of a fire,” she says.“I have been on the housing waiting list

for 18 years and I still haven’t received ahouse. When will we get homes?”She says she would like to appeal to any-

one for clothes and shelter for her familywhile they try to get back on their feet.“We lost our IDs and all other possessions

in the fire. We only have the clothes on ourbacks and I don’t work. I am not worriedabout myself but if someone could assistwith clothes, shoes, food and some toys formy family it will be appreciated.”Ward councillor AnthonyMoses says the

family has been assisted with food, clothesand blankets as well as the start-up kit toassist with some form of accommodation.“The matter has been reported to the po-

lice.The case number has been given to the

local housing office for an assessment andthen it will go to the insurance for the re-pairs to the council building,” says Moses.“I hereby wish to ask the community to

be aware of the dangers of fires at this timeas fires happen most during the build-up tothe festive season.However, Iwish to thankthe community for their unselfish supportin trying to assist Chantal during the causeof the fire.”

CRIME

New job scamA new job scam has emerged in the

past few weeks, which is affectingsome hospitals around the prov-

ince.Provincial health minister Theuns

Botha warns residents that random SMSmessages have been sent to citizenswhich require them to deposit an amountof money into an account in order to se-cure jobs, and to present it at a hospital.

He says adverts have also been placedin local newspapers.

Helderberg, Valkenberg, Groote Schu-ur andLentegeurhospitals have been tar-geted in the scam.

“People have been caught unaware and

“This has been reported to the policefor investigation. This is a very cruel of-fense, to falsely excite job seekers and torob their money on top of it - taking ad-vantage of those who are desperatelyseeking job opportunity.”

QUINTILE SYSTEM

Call for changeAs the academic year draws to an end,

provincial educationminister DebbieSchäfer has again called on the na-

tional education minister to amend itsQuintile System.This after the provincial education de-

partment’s records showed that it will payout more than R44m to fee-paying schoolsin the province for school fee exemptionsgranted last year.The Quintile System determines how

much funding a school will receive fromgovernment. It divides schools into five dif-ferent quintiles, which is determined bythe geographical location of the school.Schools in affluent areas are usually placedin Quintile 5, while a school in a rural areaor township is usually placed in Quintile 1.This means a school which is located in

an affluent area, no matter the area wherethe pupils live, will determine the ultimatefunding of a school.Schools in Quintile 1 are no-fee schools,

which means the school is run solely ongovernment funding.In a statement, Schäfer says: “While I am

pleased that we have been able to assist ourschools in providing fee compensation forfee exemption for some of our poorer [pu-pils], the reality is that there are a growingnumber of parents who simply cannot af-ford to pay school fees. This is an unfortu-nate consequence of our ailing economy.Asa consequence,morehas to bedone to assistthe poor and our schools serving poor com-munities.”If the school fees are more than 10% of

parents’ combined annual salary, theyqualify for fee exemption.They canalso apply for partial exemption

if the fees are between 2% and 10% of theirannual salary, depending on the number of

children they have at a fee-paying, publicschool. “A successful application for fee ex-emption ultimately means that the parentis exempted frompaying school fees. There-fore, that schoolwill not receive that specif-ic pupil’s school fees, which places strainon the schools finances,” Schäfer explains.“While we recognise the important role

which fee exemptions play in granting ac-cess to the poor and relief in tough econom-ic times, we are also cognisant that manyof our schools are struggling financiallyand are dependent on the collection ofschool fees to sustain various projects, re-sources or governing body staff establish-ments.”Since provincial government’s decision

to financially support no-fee schools in2011, it has paid out over 100% more thanfour years ago.“I, therefore, again appeal to [national ed-

ucation] minister Angie Motshekga toamend the Quintile System. In theWesternCape we have tried to alleviate the effectsof the system by allowing some schools inQuintile 4 to apply to be no-fee schools,”Schäfer says.“However, as a result of our own finan-

cial constraints, we cannot expand this fur-ther this year. Fee compensation has pro-vided some assistance, but we ultimatelyneed to change the current Quintile Systemfor schools that genuinely serve poor [pu-pils] to receive the requisite support fromnational government.”She adds the suggestion will not erase all

fee exemptions in the province, “but itwould certainly help many parents whocannot afford to pay school fees, as well asschools in Quintile 4 and 5 which are strug-gling financially because of non-payment offees”.

ROAD SAFETY

Call to keep children safe when drivingMONIQUE DUVAL

@monique_duval

C ar seats for infants are no longer anoption.With amendments to the National

Road Traffic Act (NRTA) parents and car-egivers are now forced to ensure childrenaged from 0 to three are buckled up.An announcement on the amendments

was made by provincial transport ministerDonald Grant last week where he made anappeal to parents to buckle young childrenin appropriate car seats and protect themfrom horrific injuries.In a statement, Grant explains the amend-

ments were promulgated on Friday 31 Octo-ber.He highlights the changes which stipulate

that all children from newborns to the ageof three have to be transported in appropri-ate child seats when travelling in private ve-hicles.Alida Jones, former Fish Hoek resident

and founder of Drive More Safely, is excitedabout the amendments and has spent sever-al years lobbying for the changes.She explains after assisting at an accident

scene on the N1 in 2011 where a young childhad died, she studied the Act to see what thestipulations were regarding car seats.“I noticed that therewasnothing to ensure

that young children were buckled up and itstated that children three and older shouldbe in a car seat if available,” she explains.Jones says she was concerned and started

lobbying for the law to be changed.She is happy about the changes but ques-

tions the enforcement thereof.According to the statement the penalty for

not obeying this new rule has not yet beendetermined.This will be based on a submission of rec-

ommendation to the chief magistrates of dif-ferent districts for consideration and ap-proval. “Recommendations will need to bemade in respect of all new offences that havebeen created by these amended regula-

tions,” Grant adds.Grant explains an analysis conducted by

Safely Home, using audited fatality datafrom the Forensic Pathology Services of theprovincial health department, showed themajority of the bodies of young childrenwhodied as passengers in road crashes were re-covered outside or under the vehicle. “Thepresence of the body outside the vehicle isa near-certain indicator that the child wasnot restrained or was improperly re-strained, as ejection does not occur when anappropriate child restraint is used,” he says.According to the statistics provided by the

department, 292 children aged from zero to14 were killed in accidents in the WesternCape between 2011 and 2013.Of this total, 27werebabies agedbelowone

year old and 36 were children aged betweentwo and four.Of the 27 babies, 11 were found outside the

vehicle and seven inside. It is unknownwhere the remaining nine were found.Of the 36 children aged between two and

four, 21 were found outside the vehicle, 10inside and the location of the remaining fiveare unknown.Commenting on the statistics, Grant says

the presence of the body inside the vehicleis not an exclusionary factor in determining

if the child was restrained or not.“The analysis therefore erred on the side

of caution by default,” he says.“The data is indicative of a minimum of

two small children being killed on WesternCape roads each month after being ejectedfrom a vehicle in a road crash,” he says.Grant further explains passengers ejected

from a crash face a 75% chance of beingkilled due to ground impact injuries and col-lisions with other objects and vehicles.In December 2011, Jones made an appeal

to Far South residents to donate unused carseats to the organisation.The car seats are then given a makeover

and the organisation ensures they are inworking order.Jones explains the car seats are then given

to familieswhoneed themand the first dona-tions were given in Fish Hoek in 2012.To date they have donatedmore than 4 000

car seats. She has now appealed for parentsand caregivers to be responsible and ensurechildren are buckled up.“When you lose a child it is too late. It best

for all of us to take responsibility and ensuretheir safety,” she adds.V If you would like to donate a car seat or are in needof one phone Jones on 081 311 3223 or email ali-da@drivemoresafely.co.za

CARNIVAL

Boost for cultureAn historic pledge of financial and other support

for the minstrels, Malay and Christmas choirshas been signed.

The signatories includemayor Patricia de Lille andprovincial minister of Cultural Affairs and Sport DrNomafrench Mbombo.And in a first this year, this festive season’s min-

strel carnival through the streets of the city will berun by the minstrels themselves.Mbombo stressed the importance of preserving the

Western Cape’s culture and heritage. Among others,this gives the so-called “lost generation” a sense of be-longing to a culture that is a source of pride, she says.The Department of Cultural Affairs and Sport has

promised its support by facilitating, regulating and

supporting the newly-formed Cape Cultural Eventand Carnival Committee and has pledged R2.37m tosupport events that take place until April.“We are only the facilitators in this process, and we

urge citizens to express themselves through the artsand their culture,” said department director for Arts,Culture and Language Jane Stuurman-Moleleki.“We will give the committee ownership of staging

its own events but will still be there to support mem-bers and give them the necessary tools to make itwork. Culture is embedded in the search for ‘who amI?’ We need to preserve the heritage of Tweede NuweJaar. Historically, this was the only day slaves wereallowed to be free and express themselves throughsong and dance.”

MAKING MERRY: Provincial funding will allow minstrels to manage theirown events from next year. PHOTO: SUPPLIED

Dreams of work come trueNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

You might think only a fairy god-mother can help you land yourdream job.

But this is exactly the kind of busi-ness Observatory-based organisationDreamwork specialises in.The NPO helps unemployed people

find their dream job, giving backtheir confidence and dignity.The initiativewas started in 2008 as

a pilot project, explains the organisa-tion’s marketer Charles Tshwane.“The researchers found that those

who are unemployed have low confi-dence and self esteem. Getting a jobgave thema sense of dignity. Thepilotproject was a runaway success,” hesays.Applicants are taken through a se-

ries of one-on-one interviews to estab-lish towhich occupation they are bestsuited.“We ask you what you dreamed of

being as a child. We want the job tobe an extension of your personality,”

Shopping lists.Things to do.Deadlines to meet.

People to please.Gift lists to write, and then rewrite again.More shopping.Gentle reminders and invasive in-store jingle prompts

to buy, buy, buy.In townships, people are pondering what new lounge

suites to buy. The plastic will stay on at least until Easter,to protect the upholstery from excess.There will be no feet or sticky handprints on those

couches – at least until the plastic is removed.They’re probably already hanging the Christmas cur-

tains. And polishing the silverware that comes out onlytwice a year – at Christmas and again at Easter.Then there’s the outfit for Mom, Dad and kids.Maybe even the dog will get an outfit. In this new South

Africa anything is possible.The tree.The gifts – some still with cash slip intact to return on

Boxing Day, just in case the size or colour doesn’t satisfy.Appeals to support charities.Giving and getting. Dropping hints.Making do with little.Giving away even less.Perhaps the citizens of our fair city should consider sav-

ing some of their hard-earned pay. Or at the very leastmake a dent in their mounting debt.Do you really need a new lounge suite?Tone down, already. Temper the impulse to spendmon-

ey you worked so hard for on stuff you don’t need to im-press people you don’t like. Yes, we have all heard thatone before.So why step squarely into the same debt trap?The table doesn’t have to negotiate the burden of the

same winter menu that hints at pre-diabetes in the newyear. Give yourselves a break.

. In the past, there were many murderswhere the waterfront is now. There was alsodumping, rapes and lots of other criminal ac-tivities. The land should remain the way itis and be given to the community. It’s a veryrelaxingandquiet place for outings andverysafe, especially since it has been run by thepeople in charge now.

. I stopped visiting the Athlone CBD overthe last couple of months because of thecrime and grime. It was showing improve-ment before, but it just got worse. I readabout the return of the previous manage-ment in People’s Post, so I visited Athloneand was amazed at the improvement.The place looks clean, there’s no more

goods on top of traders’ shelters and the are-as around the Post Office, Shoprite, the li-brary and Lewis are clean and tidy. Peoplecan now start using the CBD again. Welldone!

HEALTH

OrgandonorsneededNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

Over 4 000 South Africansare urgently awaiting anorgan transplant.

However, only 566 organtransplants were carried outlast year.

This as the country faces anorgan donation transplant cri-sis with less than 0,2% of thepopulation registered as organdonors.

Each donor is able to donatea heart, liver and pancreas, kid-neys and lungs, which couldsave seven lives. In addition,cornea donations can restore apatient’s sight.

Children are especially hardhit by a lack of donors.

According to Dr PeterNourse, a paediatric nephrolo-gy specialist at the Red CrossChildren’s Hospital, only threekidney transplants tookplace atthe hospital this year. This a de-crease of five from last year, anda significant drop from the av-erage of 10 a year historicallyperformed at the facility.

Nourse believes this drop isdue to a lack of donors.

Eight years ago, 12-year-oldRobbie Laubscher received aliver transplant.

He was born with biliaryatresia – a congenital liver dis-ease in which the common bileduct between the liver and thesmall intestine is blocked or ab-sent and which can lead to liverfailure – and received a livertransplant at four,motherMile-na Laubscher explains.

“We thought we were pre-pared for that call saying hewould receive a transplant, butwe weren’t. It was absolutelyterrifying because so manythings can go wrong,” she says.

Robbie has since competed inthe South African and WorldTransplant Games, receiving anumber of medals for swim-ming and cycling.

However, there are still hun-dreds of children who are stillwaiting for a transplant.

One of them is 14-year-old Ag-cobile Kosana, waiting for a

heart transplant.“She is no longer able to go to

school or play with other chil-dren, which is very frustratingfor her,” says aunt LungiswaNdingi.

The family is on constantalert, Ndingi says, fearing theworst may happen at any mo-ment.

“We’re scared. Her heartcould stop at any time. We al-ways have to check on herbreathing and it’s very difficultfor the family,” she says.

Ndingi is urging donors tocome forward, either personal-ly or on behalf of their families.

“Instead of someone just dy-ing with all their organs, theycan save so many lives. Evenparents should donate theirchildren’s organs – you will seewhat you have done is a bigthing,” she says.

Laubscher agrees, saying itcosts nothing to save lives.

“We were given a secondchance and we were so grate-ful,” Laubscher says. “But atthe same time we were awarethat another family was griev-ing. It’s a very brave thing todo.”

Registering has never beeneasier, as a new Facebook Appallows donors to register andspread to word to family andfriends. This app has beenlaunched under the #Save7campaign, a partnership be-tween theOrganDonorFounda-tion and the Spur Foundation.

“This campaign intends tospread the word and get peopleto take up the challenge to regis-ter as organ donors,” explainsSpur executive chairman AllenAmbor.

Registering as an organ do-nor is free and takes only min-utes, and a donor can changetheirmind at anytime. Any per-son who is in good health andclear of chronic diseases willqualify as an organ donor.

Organ donations are given asa gift and donors or their fami-lies will receive no compensa-tion, but the utmost respect anddignity is given to the donor atall times during the procedures.

Outsourcing for

small business - one

size does not fit all

An expression often heard in businesses, especially those

facing challenges, is that in order to regain financial health, the

enterprise will need to re-focus on its ‘core business’. Many

SME owners who find themselves having to cope with a dozen

different tasks a day, probably relate to this, grin ruefully and

wish that they could afford the luxury of only concentrating on

core business functions.

The irony, says Ravi Govender, Head of Small Enterprises at

Standard Bank, is that small business success is most often

linked to remaining focused on delivering the products and

services that are core to the business’ sustainability and growth.

The key to enabling the people with the skills to place their

energies where they are most useful in the company can be achieved by using a little imagination. The example set

by the finalists in the recent ‘Think Big - Building Business Champions’ TV series, illustrated that by outsourcing

tasks, the scarce skills of permanent staff can be used to maximum effect.

“It is unwise to think that outsourcing is a luxury that only bigger companies can afford. Outsourcing is practical.

All that is required is to work out the costs of the service. It can then be compared to the cost of your inputs, and

the potential loss of productivity that can occur if staff are concentrating on issues that are taking their attention

away from their primary areas of responsibility.”

“As with most things, outsourcing can only work if the necessary research and planning is undertaken to identify

exactly where support is needed, and to find the right supplier,” says Mr Govender.

Thinking about outsourcing should involve:

• Planning the on-boarding of suppliers in a way that does not require a significant time commitment from you.

• Clearly defining the areas that will and will not be outsourced. Strategic company functions should remain with

you and full-time, experienced staff. It is important to remember that you only want to outsource activities, and

not the management of relationships with your customers.

• Checking whether once-off projects can be outsourced to outside suppliers at a reasonable, all-inclusive price.

• Reducing the need for technology, as well as the time needed to administer the staff payroll. Traditionally,

payroll and HR services are the easiest to outsource to specialists.

• Deciding whether you need a full-time bookkeeper or administrator, or whether you can hand over these tasks

to someone who is well qualified, but works off-site.

• Keeping an eye on costs, and comparing them to the expense of using staff to accomplish tasks. The moment

outsourcing costs equal or exceed ‘in-house’ costs, it is time to reconsider.

• Clearly defining the scope of work, deadlines and deliverables on a project.

• Deciding the basis for payment. Will payment to suppliers rely on them completing defined milestones, or

meeting weekly or monthly deadlines?

• Putting everything in writing, so that there can be no disputes regarding charges, delivery or payment.

“Although you will be hiring somebody to accomplish a set task, or for a defined period of time, you should

take as much care interviewing them as you would when hiring a permanent employee. Check references and, if

necessary, visit sites where they have previously worked to inspect the standard of their work. Also take the time

to check whether they have the relevant experience in the areas you require help with.”

“Lastly, don’t be blinded by price. The best is not always the cheapest. You will benefit by making a careful

selection. Ignore quotes that are far below others, as this could indicate, lack of experience, or a supplier who may

not be adequately qualified.”

“Above all, remember that it is your business’ reputation at stake. Risking your reputation could have far-reaching

consequences. Choose an outsourced supplier carefully and monitor what they do and how they do it,” concludes

Mr Govender.

Akio Toyoda has seen the fu-ture and it’s called Mirai.That’s the name of Toyota’s

new fuel-cell car which the compa-ny’s president announced in a vid-eo the day before the car’s officiallaunch.Mirai, which means ‘future’ in

Japanese, is said by the automakerto be a turning point for the auto-motive industry with the promise“of a world that is safer, greenerand easier for everyone”.In Toyoda’s words: “This is a car

that lets you have it all with nocompromises.”Toyota says the car has the cruis-

ing range of a conventional saloon,can be refuelled in less than five

minutes, and emits only water va-pour.The four-door will launch in Ja-

pan with the price-tag reading $57500 - about R637 000 and a heavyprice for a modest, if rather sexy,family car. Toyota is hoping for 400sales in 2015 followed by Americanconsumption of 3 000 a year by2017.All that’s needednow is an ad-equate number of hydrogen fuel-ling stations.This is what Toyoda said in the

video: “Today, we are at a turningpoint in automotive history wherepeople will embrace a new, envi-ronmentally-friendly car that is apleasure to drive. A turning pointwhere a four-door sedan can travel

500km on a single tank of hydro-gen, can be refuelled in under fiveminutes and emit only water va-pour. A turning point that repre-sents many years and countlesshours ofworkbyour team to createa car that redefines the industry.All of us at Toyota believe in a fu-ture that will be safer, greener andeasier for everyone. We imagineda world filled with vehicles thatwoulddiminishourdependence onoil and reduceharm to the environ-ment. It was a bold, but inspiring,goal - today it is a reality.”He explained that the fuel cell in

the car could create enough elec-tricity to power a house for a week,though the fuel could bemade from

anything - “even garbage”.He added that he did some test

driving and found that it was notonly emissions free but also its lowcentre of gravity allowed “very dy-namic handling”.“After surviving millions of

miles on the test track and 10 yearsof testing on public roads in freez-ing cold and scorching heat… afterpassing extensive crash tests…and after working with local gov-ernments and researchers aroundthe world to help make sure it iseasy and convenient to refuel…weare ready to deliver.”For Toyota, he said, the Mirai

was “not just another car”.– Wheels24

Run-flatsfor allRun-flat tyres are now avail-able for mass-market cars.That’s the word fromBridge-stone which has launchedDriveGuard, a range of run-flat tyres for vehicles thatdon’t have them as originalequipment.Hiroshi Nakanishi, a

Bridgestone manager, said:“DriveGuard allows driversof such cars to enjoy all thebenefits of run-flats. If aDriveGuard tyre is punc-tured the driver can contin-ue the journey at reducedspeed until reaching a safeplace to change the wheel.”DriveGuard is built on the

technology of Bridgestone’sexistingRFTrun-flat tyres. Ifa DriveGuard tyre is punc-tured, a maximum speed of80km/h can be maintainedfor 80km.Nakanishi added: “The

ability to keep driving aftera puncture is extremely im-portant for family cars - rath-er than changing a wheel atthe roadside the family canget safely home froma poten-tially dangerous situation orkeep going at reduced speeduntil they reach a safer loca-tion. This is a great benefit ifthe puncture occurs during arainstorm or in heavy traf-fic.”Bridgestone says the tyres’

construction also delivers amore comfortable ride thanconventional tyres. Drive-Guard is available in a rangeof sizes to fit wheels from 15”to 18” diameter. – Wheels24

Mazda’s new babyMazda has revealed its all-new CX-3 to

the world in a special event on the eveof the 2014 Los Angeles auto show.

The all-new crossover SUV is the fifthmod-el inMazda’s line-up of new-generation vehi-cles to feature the full suite of the company’saward-winning SkyActiv technology alongwith the Kodo – Soul of Motion - design.With the global market launch set for Ja-

pan in early 2015 - it’s expected in South Afri-ca in the third quarter off 2015 - the CX-3 willbecome a core member of Mazda’s modelline-up.Units forEurope, usually the sameas those

scheduled for South Africa - will have achoice of three engines and four drive trains:

. Petrol SkyActiv-G two-litre tuned for

two power versions.. Anew SkyActiv-D 1.5-litre diesel.. Six-speed SkyActiv-Drive auto andman-

ual transmissions will be offered for eitherfront- or all-wheel drive.The new car will also have active safety

systems and “superb passive protection” foroccupants from its light yet stiff shell. Mazdasays the cars are also “suited to the needs ofamodernmarket”with “a generous infotain-ment package, including in-car connectivi-ty”.TheMazdaCX-3will be ondisplay through-

out the 2014 Los Angeles show alongwith theall-new Mazda MX-5, the 2015 Mazda CX-5and the 2015 Mazda6, which are also makingtheir debuts. – Wheels24

Getting closer to autonomous carsAs millions of cars are under recall forpotentially lethal air bags, designers aretrying to reduce the need for the device- using sensors, radar, cameras and la-sers to prevent collisions in the firstplace.With driver error blamed for over 90%

of road crashes, the thinking is it wouldbe better to have them do less of the driv-ing. TheUS Insurance Institute forHigh-way Safety found that forward-collisionwarning systems cut vehicle-to-vehiclecrashes by 7% - not a huge leap,but a po-tential life saver. Nearly 31 000 peopledied in car crashes in the USA in 2012.Thomas Weber, global R&D head at

Mercedes-Benz, said: “Passive safety fea-tures will stay important, and we needthem. The next level is now visible. Au-tonomousdriving forus is clearly a strat-egy to realise our vision for accident-freedriving.”While giving a computer full control of

a car is some way off, there’s a lot it cando in the meantime.For now, in some cars you can take

your foot off the pedal and hands off thewheel in slow-moving traffic, and the carwill keep pace with the vehicle in front;it can jolt you awake if it senses you’renodding off; alert you if you’re crossinginto another lane; and brake automati-cally if you don’t react to warnings of ahazard ahead.How close this all comes to leaving the

driver out of the equationwas illustratedbyanexperiment atDaimler in 2013: add-ing just a few off-the-shelf components toaMercedes-Benz S-Class, a teamwent ona 100km ride in Germany without hu-man intervention.Team member David Pfeiffer said:

“The project was about showing how faryou cango, not justwith fancy lasers, butwith stuff you can buy off the shelf.”

Such features, however, require solv-ing thorny problems, including how toavoid pedestrians. While in-car camerasare good at identifying and classifyingobjects, they don’t work so well in fog orat night. Radar, on the other hand, cancalculate the speed, distance and direc-tion of objects, and works well in limitedlight, but can’t tell between a pedestrianand a pole. While traffic signs are sta-tionary and similar in shape, people areoften neither. For a better fix on direc-tion there’s LiDAR - a combination oflight and radar - which creates a pictureof objects using lasers. Velodyne’s sen-sors on Google’s autonomous car, for ex-ample, use up to 64 laser beams spinning20 times per second to create a 360-de-gree, 3D view of up to several hundredmetres around the car.Mercedes’ ‘Stop-and-Go Pilot’ feature

matches the speed of the car in front inslow traffic and adjusts steering to stayin lane using two ultrasonic detectors,five cameras and six radar sensors.“This technology is a first major step,”said R&D chief Weber. “(However dis-tracted the driver is), the system miti-gates any accident risk in front.”The next stage, experts say, is a road

network which talks to cars, and wherecars talk to other cars. General Motorshas said its 2017 Cadillac CTS will trans-mit and receive location, direction andspeed data with oncoming vehicles via aversion of Wi-Fi. Other approaches in-clude using cameras tomonitor the driv-er. Not everyone, though, welcomes thisprogress. Some drivers complain thetechnology is intrusive, or is inconsist-ent. Chris Hayes, a vice president at in-surer Travelers, said: “If a safety featureis seen as intrusive or bothersome, adriver may try to circumvent or disableit.”

WIN DINNER AND MEET ALISTAIR, EMO AND LOUKMAAN!

Get your groove onGARY VAN DYK

@gvdcapejazz

There’s a buzz in the air as Cape Towngets ready for a groove that will set thetone for a fantastic festive season.

On Saturday 6 December the beat will betaking place with a musical extravaganza,featuring the cream of Cape Town artists onone grand stage.Headline Entertainment in association

with Heart 104.9FM, People’s Postand Tyger-Burger will host the Hot Summer Grooveconcert at the Grand Arena.Taking to the stage are some talents that

need very little introduction to local musiclovers and actually started in the businessalmost as toddlers.Manymoons ago inMitchell’s Plain the fa-

ther of Emo and Loukmaan Adams startedthe Kinners Vannie Ses project (it is still go-ing strong) and the tiny talents thatwere fea-tured in this show includedRamaineBarrei-ro and Alistair Izobell.The rest, as they say, is history with Emo,

Loukmaan and Alistair eventually gettinginvolved with the Kramer/Petersen produc-tions. All of themplayed the role of Broertjiein District Six – The Musical at one stage.Theywerealsopart of thephenomenalKat

and the Kings that toured internationallyand won a Laurence Olivier Award in Lon-don.Alistair smiles when he recalls those

heady days when they were performing andtouring with the best on the local entertain-ment scene.“The Rockets andAl Etto played a big part

in taking our talent to another level, eventhough we were so young,” he said.“Loukman and myself were part of a tour

to Japan as part of Ricardo and Friends.When we got back we were joined by Emo

and Ramaine who added another dimensionto our sounds and we were encouraged toform the group Nu Fancy.“This was about 1990, and we first record-

ed with the Rockets and then on our own.Remember that the recording studio wasnext to Club Fame in Elsies River.”Looking back Alistair feels that this start

into the entertainment business made themrealise their destiny.“I think after a few years we realised this

is what we were designed to do with ourlives. All of us had music in our back-grounds,” he said.“The Adams’ always had some people

practising there for the minstrels or the Ma-lay Choirs. They participated in those com-petitions from young.“At Ramaine’s place the whole family

loved music; she was always singing tothem. And inmine therewere somany fami-ly members who played music but I am theone that took to it professionally and haveno regrets.”The concert will also feature the Sama-

nominated female vocal group Black-byrd.The Take Note band will be on stage.If you buy a ticket to this show you will

stand a chance of winning a brand new car– the latest FAW V2 1.3.All the tickets bought for the show will be

Crunch timeSHIFAAN RYKLIEF

The Magic will face Zizwe United in theNedbank Cup play-off final.Four teams from the ABC Motsepe

League went head-to-head at Chukker Roadthis past weekend in search of a place in theNedbank Cup play-off final.Zizwe United FC faced newcomers Barce-

lona FC who has really impressed in theleague thus far. Barcelona were surely hop-ing to carry their superb showing in theleague through to theirNedbankCup semifi-nal match-up.However, it was the Khayelitsha-based

outfitwho took a 2-0 lead into the break,withSiyambonga Madikane and Bathandwa“Lanka” Mzilikazi finding the back of thenet respectively for Zizwe.Barcelona displayed an elegant passing

game as they looked to get back into thegame, but Zizwe’s Madikane went on toscore his brace and gave his side a three-goallead. In the closing stages of the game,Barce-lona received a penalty and managed toscore a consolation goal to end the game 3-1.Meanwhile, George Dearnaley’s side The

Magic came from a goal behind to level mat-terswith FCTygerberg in the dyingminutesof the game. Damian Mitchell gave FC Ty-gerberg the initial lead, before GhaalibAvontuur got the equalizer. The Magic thenwent on to claim a 5-4 penalty shootout win.With only one team from the Western

Cape’s third tier eligible to play in the Ned-bank Cup tournament, it means that ZizweUnited and The Magic will soon face eachother to decidewhowill claim the spot in thelucrative tournament. – CapeTownFootballFacebook page

Beasts continue unbeaten runSTEVLIN MALGAS

Cape TownAll Stars let yet another derbymatch slip through their fingers whenthey played to a 1-1 stalemate with FC

Cape Town at theAthlone StadiumonFridayevening.Coach Boebie Solomons was left haplessly

looking to the stars as his charges lackedcomposure in the final third to secure theirfirst home victory. The seventh Cape Derbyof the season started off at a blistering pace,with the FC Cape Town outmuscling theirhosts in the opening exchanges. Stars wereshining the brightest in the 40th minutewhen midfielder Zaphaniah Mbokoma gavehis side the lead against his former team.The host took a 1-0 lead into the break as

the African Beasts were left licking their

wounds. Stars continued where they left offand started the second half the brightest.However, following two quick substitu-

tions for the African Beasts, it was SibusisoMasina who found the back of the net for thevisitors to level matters nine minutes intothe second half. The game soon opened up asboth teams searched for the winner and al-though Stars had more clear-cut chances,they failed capitalise on them to regain thelead. Meanwhile, the visitors had theirchances as well, but were denied by the hero-ics of goalkeeper Kyle Peters.With neither side able break the deadlock,

1-1 is how it ended as the two Cape sides add-ed to their draw masters reputation.The result saw FC Cape Town record their

eighth draw in eleven matches, while Starsarenot far offwith sevendraws. –CTFootball
