Not a place to liveTIYESE JERANJI

@jeranji

Kensington residents in Second Streetand 4th Avenue say a building at thecorner of their streets is a disaster

waiting to happen.The building has two floors and, it is esti-

mated, more than 32 rooms. It is unknownhow many people live there as a number ofpeople are seen coming and going.

At the bottom of the building is a panel-beating shop.

Concerned residents nearby say the situa-tion at the building has gotten out of handover the years. The residents complainabout illegal activities, such as prostitutionand drug smuggling. They say the peoplestaying in the building are noisy and unrulyand they fight.

Some of the people are still active at oddhours of the day and come in and out of the

building at 03:00 in the morning.Residents have called police when they

saw illegal activities but allege the authori-ties never came.

Apart from all this the building housesthree churches.

For years, nearby residents say they havecalled on authorities to act as the buildingis unsuitable for people to live in.

The residents believe that the buildingshould have been condemned as unsafe for

inhabitants. But people are still living there.Sedick Pandit, one resident who is fed up,

says the situation is out of hand.“How can people be staying in a con-

demned building and the City does nothingabout it? This place is a risk. We can’t dealwith the noise. They don’t have toilets andwater pipes, so they are digging trenches inthe pathways, which is unacceptable. Wedon’t know how to deal with this anymore.V Continued on page 2.

An eclipseoccurs when the shadow of themoon actually crosses the earth.The next time South Africans canexpect to see a partial eclipsewill be on 1 September next year.Apart from partial solar eclipses,South Africa can also expect alunar eclipse in the early hours of28 September. A lunar eclipseonly occurs when its full moon,and solar eclipses only occur inthe new moon. PHOTO: DALE CARTER

“My worry is that we are at the doorstep ofthe problem, suffering. Our kids come hereto buy drugs and, as long as the building isrun like this, there is nothing that we cando. If this continues this area will end up be-ing a slum and this is the last thing that wewant.“We have tried to get the authorities to

look into it, but we are still waiting.We havecalled on the City but they have done noth-ing at all; we have to sort out this mess our-selves,” he says.The building apparently has only one toi-

let and a bathroom. There is a twin sink thatis used by everyone.People living there say they pay at least

R2000 a room, which includes water andelectricity. The water and electricity are cutoff every now and again.Inhabitants say they are paying despite

the appalling conditions because they needa place to hide their heads.James Onohluke, who stays in the build-

ing, says he wanted a place to stay but itwas the worst mistake he made in his life.“The place is filthy dirty. We are paying

a lot of money; we don’t even have propertoilets or bathrooms.We have called on thelandlord to clean up the place or get it reno-vated but we have gotten nowhere withthat. The place is so bad but now I have no-where to go; that’s why I’m here,” he says.Miranda Tal, another tenant, says it is

the worst place, but it’s difficult to get an-other place to stay.“I have been looking for another place to

stay with no luck. I didn’t want to be home-less. The toilet and the bathroom are sodirty. I don’t even enter the bathroom. Thewashing line area has become a toilet be-cause no-one wants to use the toilet. Peoplehave to jump over faeces when they are go-ing to dry their clothes, which is disgust-ing. No matter how much we complain thelandlord is not even bothered; all he wantsis his money at the end of the month,” shesays.Jimmy Xalipi, a KenFac community

leader, says the safety of people is at risk.“The issue here is not about people stay-

ing there but their safety.What if the build-ing falls downand theydie? It’s not suitablefor people to be living there. If the ownerwants to put people there, hemust renovate

it and make it a proper place. People can’tbe staying in here like animals. There areother concerns that have to bedealtwith andwe are calling on the City to act now,” hesays.Johan van derMerwe,mayoral committe

member for energy, environmental and spa-tial planning, says the building has not beencondemned.“The City of Cape Town’s planning and

building development management depart-ment is in the process of instituting HighCourt proceedingsagainst thepropertyowner to remedy the unlawful aspects of thisbuilding.“Allmatters relating to allegations of anti-

social behaviour need to be referred to thepolice,” he says.

Tooth Fairies care about brushingTIYESE JERANJI

@jeranji

September is National OralHealth Month, a time to pay ex-

tra attention to dental routine.Cavities andgumdisease are two

of theworld’smost common healthproblems of the mouth.Almost all South Africans expe-

rience gum disease at some pointin their lives. It ranks second only

to the common cold in terms ofprevalence.A child’s primary teeth, called

baby teeth, are as important as per-manent teeth. Primary teeth helpchildren chew and speak and holdspace in the jaws for permanentteeth that are developing under thegums. They are also important forthe proper growth of the face andjaw.By the time children are six

years old, many of them have expe-rienced some form of tooth decay.To raise awareness in children

and their parents about the impor-tance of oral health and to encour-age good oral hygiene the ToothFairies visited the Red Cross WarMemorial Children’s Hospital lastweek.The visit was in celebration of

oral health and focused on payingattention to your mouth and teeth.

The Fairies, in sparkly dressesand tiaras, attracted the children’sattention in a fun and approacha-ble way. They showed the youngpatients the importance of lookingafter their primary (baby) teeth.The Tooth Fairies were invited

by the hospital’s volunteer pro-gramme, which is managed by theFriends of the Children’s HospitalAssociation.The Tooth Fairies showed the

young patients how to brush theirteeth. One of the Tooth Fairies saysthat dental decay or caries is pre-ventable.“Most of the children and young

people dentists see have holeswhich could have been avoided by

simply practising good oral hy-giene,” she says.The other Tooth Fairy says they

also encourage parents to super-vise tooth brushing to ensure thatit happens twice a day with fluor-ide toothpaste and that childrenspit the toothpaste out instead ofrinsing their mouths, leaving theall-important fluoride on theirteeth longer to strengthen it.“Prioritising oral hygiene is an

important way for them to helpprevent oral disease in their chil-dren,” she says.Parents are encouraged to re-

strict sweet treats to meal timesand to read food labels – “no addedsugar” does notmean “sugar free”.

Moegemmad Devajee, club chairperson,says this time they are doing things right.They invite local talent to join the club.

“We have young blood in the executivewho are bringing fresh ideas. We havelearnt that without funding there is nothingthat we can do, so we are trying by all meansto do different fundraising activities to keepus going. We are certain that there is talentin our community and we have very goodplayers. We have a new approach to thingsand we are happy that already it’s startingto bear fruit. We are appealing to parentsto bring their kids so that we have fun, butmost of all, grow the talent that we have inthe community,” he says.V Those who want to join the club can call Devajeeon 083 4000 504.

Pupils’ dreams made realTIYESE JERANJI

@jeranji

The dreams of 200 pupils at HJ Kronen-berg Primary School in Maitland have

come true over the past few months.From boat trips to being a princess, the

pupils experienced their hearts’ desires. Ajoint initiative between the PeninsulaSchool Feeding Association (PSFA) andCape Peninsula University of Technology(CPUT) Public Relations students man-aged this through the #FeedADream cam-paign.

The tertiary students made an effort toharness the collective power of partner-ships with many organisations to fulfil thedreams of the pupils.

Samantha Williams, an employee at HJKronenberg Primary School, has praisedthe effort of the students as “absolutelywonderful”.

The first of many dreams was realisedwhen the Iziko mobile museum visited theschool. Various exciting activities werearranged during August with the help ofbusinesses and the public.

A few pupils took a tour through thehangers at the airport to learn about heli-copters and airplanes. Some of the adven-turous pupils went up Table Mountain,others visited Monkey Town and the HeartMuseum, whilst others went for a bicycleride along the Sea Point Promenade.

Charles Grey, fundraising manager forPSFA, says the campaign wanted to showthe pupils that their dreams really matterand can come true.

“Pupils received certificates, congratu-lating them for believing in their dreamsand thanking them for being a part of thecampaign,” he says.

As part of the campaign the CPUT stu-dents raised funds to feed the 200 pupils ofHJ Kronenberg Primary for a year. Withthe help of friends, families and a few will-ing businesses, the students raised R40 000and realised dreams to the value ofR43 000.

A comedy fundraiser will take place aspart of the #FeedADream campaign onThursday and Friday next week.

PSFA is a non-profit organisation dedi-cated to feeding hungry schoolchildren.PSFA currently provides nutritiouscooked meals to more than 26 000 childrenat 145 primary, secondary and special-needs schools as well as early childhooddevelopment centres in the province.V Contact PSFA on 021 447 6020 or [email protected] or visit visit www.psfa.org.za.

His decades countNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

With over 2000 cases a month, the CapeTown Central police station’s detective

branch is a busy place.But it’s nothing new branch commander

Colonel Johan Marais can’t handle.“The detective environment is probably

the most challenging. But it’s what youmake of it,” he says.Marais joined the police service 33 years

ago and has been a detective for 32 of those.His first case, while stationed in Grahams-town, was the theft of a TV camera at theNa-tional Arts Festival.He took a street person to lunch and as-

sured him any information on the crimewould be rewarded. Little did he know theman would bring him information to catchthe perpetrator and return the camera, orthat hewould become one of his best inform-ants.A relationship with an informant needs to

be built on trust, Marais explains.It’s this very principle he brings to his

branch and staff and which he hopes to fos-ter in the community.The station is fortunate to have good com-

munity cooperation in the form of partner-ships with security companies, the CentralCity Improvement District and the Commu-nity Police Forum.But a lack of information from the public

is still one of the biggest challenges.“If you park your car at 08:00 and you no-

tice at 18:00 when you get back to it that itwas broken into, where do we start?” hesays.Its cases like these that witnesses can play

an invaluable role.“More active involvement from the com-

munity can also assist police in speedier re-sponse times,” Marais says. “In any investi-gation, the first 24 hours are themost impor-tant. It’s easier for someone to rememberthings a few hours after they happened.They will remember less the next day.”

Wrapping up cases can take anythingfrom a day to a week, depending on thecomplexity of the case.The branch deals with everything from

the theft ofwashing tomurder, and is divid-ed into fourmain units. These deal with vi-olent crime, economic crimes such as theft,direct arrests – which include drug posses-sion and shoplifting – and fraud.While the station sees double the amount

of cases as other stations, there are fewerserious crimes such as murder in the area,Marais says.Marais has worked at over a dozen sta-

tions during his career, most recently inKhayelitsha. He has also served on a num-ber of specialised units and was one of thefounders of the organised crime intelli-gence unit and commanded the organisedcrime unit.“Once you have become a detective there

is nothing else you want to do,” he says.“There are frustrations and challenges, butI wouldn’t want to do something else.”

Colonel Johan Marais recently took up thepost as the commander of the detectivebranch at Cape Town Central police station.

Michaela “Chaeli” Mycroft (21) fromPlumstead has became the first female

quadriplegic to summit the highest peak inAfrica.After two years of planning and nine

months of preparation, Mycroft accom-plishedwhatmanypeople thoughtwould beimpossible. She embarked on this journeyto show that nothing is impossible whensomeonehas a positivemindand surroundshimself with people who want to achievegreatness (“A positive mind can take youhigh”, 1 September, People’s Post).The third-year University of Cape Town

student has cerebral palsy and is a wheel-chair user. She is the first female quadriple-

gic to get to the top of Mount Kilimanjaroin Tanzania. She and her team of sevenclimbers used the challenge to raise aware-ness of the Chaeli Campaign, a non-profitorganisation that provides services to chil-dren with disabilities.For her the effort involved in the chal-

lenge cannot be ignored.“It is enough of a challenge for able-bod-

ied individuals to attempt a climb of suchepic proportions. Facing challenges, suchas the threat of altitude sickness and deal-ing with temperatures that fall below freez-ing, the expedition was anything but easy.I was so tired and all I needed at the timewas my bed. We made it,” she says.V To learn more about this ground-breaking adven-ture and to follow Chaeli’s story visit www.discover-africa.com/teamwork/.

Watch forsigns ofsuicideriskAs World Suicide Prevention Day passed

last week, the South African Depressionand Anxiety Group has called on people towatch for warning signs of suicidalthoughts by loved ones and to lift the si-lence on depression.

Studies show that 80% of those who com-mit suicide give some kind of warning toa loved one.

Cape Town psychologist Diane Mallabysays all suicide threats should be taken se-riously.

“In men specifically, the risk of comple-tion is extremely high as they use more vio-lent measures and are thus four times morelikely to succeed on their first attempt thanwomen,” she says.

Prof Lourens Schlebusch, an expert onthe link between stress and suicide, agrees.

“Consider all suicide threats as danger-ous. Even if you feel the person is very farfrom an attempt, they may do it just toprove you wrong.”

Although all threats should be taken seri-ously, there are certain signs of an immedi-ate risk.

If your loved one has a detailed plan, hasattempted suicide before, is saying thingslike “Life is not worth living” and seems tobe preparing for death by sorting out a willor giving away treasured items, you mayneed to take drastic measures.

Schlebusch explains that suicidal pa-tients often struggle with depression,which mostly goes undiagnosed in men, asthey are less likely to discuss their emo-tions or seek help for “sadness”.

Generally, if a loved one’s unhappinesslasts for more than two weeks, there is agood possibility that they may be sufferingfrom depression.

Major life changes, such as a death in thefamily, a relationship break-up or financialworries, can also bring on depression.

Men bottle upTraditionally seen as the providers, men

may find financial difficulties particularlydevastating.

Not likely to open up about their feelings,men can be difficult to read, but knowingthe symptoms of depression can help youpick up when there is something wrong.

Mallaby says the signs to look out for inmen are withdrawal from friends and fami-ly and activities once enjoyed, missingwork and social get-togethers, irritabilityor aggression, saying things like “I’m a bur-den to my family”, feelings of hopelessness,increased smoking or drinking, low energylevels and lack of concentration, as well aschanges in usual eating and/or sleepingpatterns.

Help is at handFor those who seem to be in the “danger

zone”, professional help is essential andcan be found at private or public hospitalsor clinics, general practitioners, psychia-trists and psychologists.

Schlebusch says: “Try to suggest this ina way that doesn’t offend your loved one.Another idea is to say you would like to seesomeone and ask if they would go withyou.”

After seeing a psychiatrist and using an-ti-depressant medication for a while, Fiv-iwe is doing much better. He no longerdrinks, which he believes was his biggestproblem, and he occasionally sees a psy-chologist.

“The ‘big men don’t cry’ saying is rub-bish,” he says. “If you want to cry, cry andlet it all out, it doesn’t make you any lessof a man. Don’t keep quiet and suffer alone.Find someone you can trust and talk tothem about what’s bothering you. Don’twait for your problems to become serious,sort them out while they’re still small.”V For free help and more information call the SouthAfrican Depression and Anxiety Group on0800 567 567 or SMS 31393 or visit www.sadag.org.

While the official World Foetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS)Day was observed last week, the significance of the dayis a message that is important all year round.

Although FAS is completely preventable, it remains aserious health issue, especially in the Western Capewhere many women continue to drink during pregnancy,despite the serious risks involved.

When a mother drinks, the alcohol is transferred direct-ly to the foetus’ blood stream, causing irreversible physi-cal, neurological, behavioural and learning disabilities.

While some FAS-children, with a lot of support, can be-come highly functioning adults, many have been affectedto such an extent that they remain children trapped inan adult’s body. Some may only have one related problem,others may have all.

This seems a heavy price to pay for something that theyA) didn’t choose and b) is completely avoidable.

While organisations like the Beyerskloof Faith Fundand FASt Forward are doing great work in terms of edu-cating communities about the dangers of drinking duringpregnancy, both organisations maintain that bringing anend to FAS is not just a mother’s job, but also a communi-ty’s responsibility.

The Faith Fund, for example, advocates that fathers andloved ones also stop drinking during the nine months ofpregnancy to support the mother, but helping to end theproblem may be as simple as spreading the message.

Speaking at a charity event recently, the Faith Fund’sIna Viljoen said many mothers are still completely una-ware of how their drinking could affect their babies.

They say it takes a village to raise a child, but why onlystart when the child is born?

By helping to spread the word about FAS and simplychecking a pregnant woman you may see drinking, youcould make an immense difference to an unborn child’sfuture.

The cubs festival of the Rygate LocalFootball Association (LFA) is no doubtan annual thriller and this year’s

theme, “celebrating civersity”, was inspiredby the spirit and scenes of the hundreds ofsoccer fanswhowereunited during the four-day event focusing on the youth in commu-nities.About 100 clubs from all over the Western

Cape participated.The age categories u.6, u.8 and u.10 were

introduced this year, after the event had ca-tered for u.7s and u.9s the previous threeyears.The tournament, now in its fourth year,

fuses sport, fair play, culture and communi-ty service into a competition format that in-spires community youth to embrace theskills they have acquired through Score’ssport and development programmes.According to Faizel “Boeta” Samaai, pres-

ident of Rygate LFA, it is a tournament forchildren to come and enjoy, to have fun andand take the opportunity to form friendshipsand share experienceswith other youngpeo-ple who are motivated by social change.“Secondly, the cubs event aims to increase

sportsmanship as well as prevent discrimi-nation in the game of soccer.”

ganisers of the CTCT announced a new on-line entry application process to eliminatethe quick sell-out of entries and improve cy-clists’ overall experience.“This is the first time Cycle Tour has

moved away from the first-come-first-serveentry mechanism, and we believe this new

system will ensure a more equitable and in-clusive process for all prospective riders.Wewant to remind applicants that they do notneed to rush to be the first in line as soonas the portal opens. Instead, they are able toapply for an entry at their convenience dur-ing the allocated period, giving all eager rid-ers a fair chance to access the online portalto register their interest and to update theirdetails at the same time,” says David Bel-lairs, a CTCT director.The CTCT takes place on 6 March next
