Thedevelopmentwas initiallymeant toconstruct 623 housing units forR142 million, at R228 000 per unit.

However, after the first phase wasconcluded, the project was extended toinclude an additional 19 units. The ex-pansion was allocated R34 million atR1.8 million per extra unit.

“This makes no sense and needs tobe investigated immediately. R1.8 mil-lion per unit is too expensive. It leavesfewer resources available to addressthe massive housing backlog we face.

“In the DA-run Western Cape lowcosthousing is provided, onaverage, atbetween R90 000 and R120 000 perunit. This allows for the roll-out of largenumbers of units in order to erase thehousing backlog over time.”

Mncwango said eThekwini wouldnot be able to afford to build houses forhundreds of thousands of people ifR1.8 million was going to be spent fora single low cost housing unit.

“This episode raises serious ques-tions about the Cornubia housing de-velopment. It is disturbing that the con-tract has been given to Gralio Precast,a company with a history of shoddyworkmanship.

“TheManase report, Department ofHousing and the National Home Build-ers Registration Council (NHBRC) haveall chastised this company for poorworkmanship in recent years for vari-ous government housing contracts.”He added that giving the company an-other tender to construct ‘low cost’housing at R1.8 million per unit is“highly” questionable.

Minority Front (MF) councillorPraggie Padayachee said that the MFhas championed the fight against cor-ruption in the city. “TheManase reporthas revealed the allegations of malad-ministration and corruption which isstill being investigated by MEC Dube.

“Since this housing project will par-tially boost the housing backlog, theallocated budgets must be utilised tothemaximum for the provision of qual-ity housing. Contractors must bescreened when tenders are awarded.The quality and workmanship of theconstruction of the houses must meetall required standards of the NationalBuilding Regulation Acts.”

Local DA councillor Brian Jayanath-an said the cost of the homes wasridiculous. “It’s rather unfortunate thatthese homes are paid for by the rate-payerandnot theANCand theirmoneyneeds to be well controlled and spent.

“As the DA we will never support abudget because the ANC fails to put incontrols and procedures to ensure thatsome councillors don’t also have theirhands inthepie and benefit from thesehousing projects. Many councillorshave been found guilty of housing cor-ruptioninthepastand we cannotallowfor these irregularities to continue.”

ANC councillor Michael Abrahamswas not available for comment at timeof going to press.

Umgeni water pondersDESALINATION>> Potential to filter sea water into fresh drinking water

UMGENI Water is investigatingthe feasibility of two 150 mega­litre­per­day (Ml/d) seawater

desalination plants on the North andSouth Coasts of KwaZulu­Natal.

If found feasible, these schemeswould be constructed so that thenorthern scheme would provide up to75Ml/d of potable water to eThekwi­ni’s northern areas such as Tongaatand Verulam and 75Ml/d to iLembeDistrict Municipality.

The southern scheme would pro­vide approximately 75Ml/d to eThek­wini’s southern areas and a further75Ml/d south to Ugu District Municipal­ity.

If either of the schemes are devel­oped they would be the largest seawa­ter desalination plants in the country.

The largest scheme in South Africaat present is 15 Ml/d and the largest insouthern Africa is a 45Ml/d plant atSwakopmund in Namibia.

There are, however, many largescale desalination plants around theworld including Spain, UAE, and Aus­tralia with plants up to and exceeding450Ml/d.

The technology that would be usedas part of the desalination process isSea Water Reverse Osmosis.

Umgeni stakeholder manager Sha­mi Hurichunder said a 150 Ml/d desali­nation plant will include large infra­structure to abstract water from thesea and to return brine to the ocean.

“The technological components ofa desalination plant are expensive.Very high pressure pumps are required

to pressurise the seawater to the levelat which salt can be removed from thewater.

“With the high corrosivity of the wa­ter, super duplex stainless steels are al­so required for many of the compo­nents of the plant.”

He said the membranes which areused in the desalination process are al­so very expensive.

“Consequently our preliminary costestimates vary between R2.7 and R2.9billion for a 150 megalitre per day plantdepending on site location.”

The operational cost of desalinat­ing seawater is high compared to con­ventional water treatment.

Hurichunder said South Africa is, ingeneral, a water scarce country.

“Large dams are required to store

the water necessary to provide citieswith an assurance of supply duringdrought periods. ”

He said with the current growth inwater demand, even this scheme willsoon, not provide the requiredassurance of supply to Durban, Pieter­maritzburg and surrounding areas.

“Other options are available foraugmenting the water resources ofthe Mgeni Catchment, including thepossibility of damming the uMkho­mazi River.

“Umgeni Water is now undertak­ing a detailed feasibility study of two150Ml/d seawater desalination plantsand once this study is completed thecapital and operating costs will becompared against those of dammingthe uMkhomazi and transferring thatwater to the Mgeni Catchment,” saidHurichunder. He said the economicanalysis, together with the perceived,environmental impacts, will providethe water board with the informationnecessary to evaluate implemena­tion.

The late Roy Narain

COMMUNITYservant passes on>> A tribute to Coastal Weekly columnist and well known personality

KAVEEL SINGH

ROY Narain, a renowned community per-sonality in the Tongaat and Verulam ar-easandcolumnist for theCoastalWeekly,

passed away peacefully in his sleep in the earlyhours of Friday morning, 8 November.

Narain,whoranhisownestateandmanage-ment agency from his offices in Arbee Drive,worked closelywith several body corporates inthe Tongaat area and was well known for hishelp and assistance in various areas of financeand body corporate management.

Narainwas the only son of teacher VNarainfrom Gandhi Nagar in Tongaat.

He matriculated at Tongaat SecondarySchool in the 1970s and completed a tertiarycourse in finance and administration.

He received a certificate in sectional titlesmanagementfromtheUniversityofCapeTown.He was also a qualified estate agent.

Narainwas alsowell known among the reli-gious and spiritual circles associated closely tothe Sathya Sai Seva Organisation.

He engaged in service orientated activitiesthroughout the North Coast.

He served as the chairperson of the NorthCoastco-ordinatingcommitteeof theSaiorgan-isation serving centre stretching fromVerulamtoRichardsBay.Hemoveduptheorganisation’sranks after serving the Tongaat Sai Centrewithdistinction for a number of years. At the time ofhis death he returned to the Tongaat Sai Centreto serve again as its chairperson.

As part of the Sai Organisation’s mission tospread spiritual messages and practices, RoytogetherwithSumenGovenderhostedaninspi-rational programme of messages, music andpracticeontheverypopularradiostationcalledRadio Phoenix.

This was a service to all spiritual aspirantswho followed them religiously every morningbetween 4am and 6am.

He was also a passionate environmentalistwho became amember of theWildlife Associa-tion of South Africa together with Teddy Al-imuthu Perumal a close friend and asso-ciate. BothNarainandPerumalengagedinsev-

eral environmental awareness campaigns andprojects in their quest to save the planet.

He was also a familiar face at theTongaat Child and FamilyWelfare’s an-nual Charity Fair, serving as a vol-unteer at their annual charityfair.Notaskwastoomenial

for Narain to perform-whether itwasserv-ing in the kitchen orselling tickets atthe Kiosk, he wasequal to thetask.

The commu-nity is definitelypoorer withthe loss of a self-less servant likeRoy Narain wholived to servewith distinc-tion.

NO TASK WAS TOO MENIAL FOR NARAIN TO PERFORM ­ WHETHER IT WAS SERVING INTHE KITCHEN OR SELLING TICKETS AT THE KIOSK, HE WAS EQUAL TO THE TASK. THECOMMUNITY IS DEFINITELY POORER WITH THE LOSS OF A SELFLESS SERVANT...

THE Tongaat Anti Drug Forum (TADF)in conjunction with the TongaatChild Welfare launched the Teenager

Against Drug Abuse (TADA) initiative onFriday, 1 November.

Addressing high school pupils, TADFpresident Clyde Pillay said TADA had be­gan 10 years ago but was eventually dor­mant. “It is now time to re­energise this ini­tiative and ensure the fight against drugs

continues. Schools that have continuedthis fight without TADA must be compli­mented.” Pillay said resurrecting TADAcame after “the situation with drugsreached serious levels”.

“Things have gotten so bad that I heardabout a 13­year­old boy selling drugs. Canyou imagine what he will be like in five orsix years from now.

“He is beyond the consuming point. Heis actually buying these drugs in bulk andselling it to his fellow pupils.

“We need to stand up and be counted.As people of the community we must sayno to these ills of our society.”

Pillay said TADA aimed to minimise thefuture usage of drugs by the community.

“We have gathered pupils here to helpthem understand the dangers of drugs andhelp them avoid even experimenting withdrugs.” Also addressing pupils, former drugaddict Jared Cronje shared his experiencesand encouraged sober lifestyles.

“I was at a stage in my life when yet an­other missing persons report had been is­sued for me. I was a cocaine addict whowould do anything to feed my addiction.”

Cronje said he had been living a perfect­ly successful life in Johannesburg when hebegan experimenting with drugs.

“I had lots of money and I used a lot ofit to fuel this evil addiction. It is scary howyou lose yourself in something so terrible.”

He said that in South Africa 94 percentof teenagers confess to experimentingwith drugs. “This is an absolutely frighten­ing statistic. I say this because in rehab, thesuccess rate is a mere three to five per cent.This means that if you become hooked on

drugs there is a good chance you will neverrecover. This is why we are trying to helpyou understand the negative path you willtreading along.

“There is a slim chance you will recoverand live a full life. If there is anything youshould do, its not submit to this evil. Dis­courage your friends against it and livehappy normal lives.”

Pupils are hand­ed over an anti­drug kit by so­cial worker Fa­heema Dawood(right).

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

KAVEEL SINGH

ISAW the most amazing computer gamereview on Tuesday. It was in the DailyTimes. The game was called Democracy

3.Democracy 3 is essentially sim­presi­

dent – this means it allows you to run oneof several countries the way you want withthe policies you like.

You interact with the game purely bysettingandalteringpolicies–spendingpo­litical capital to do this.

That capital is gained through yourministers, who each sympathise with par­ticular special interest groups.

If you annoy those groups too much,your ministers don’t give you much capital,and may even end up resigning.

They also throw in a number of vari­ables such as having to solve national cri­ses – whether they be asthma epidemicsor organised crime, and keep yourself rea­sonably popular with the electorate. Ac­cording to the reviewer: “It is interesting tonote that sometimes what actually worksfor dealing with one crisis isn’t what the

people want – legalising prostitution forexample can cut down organised crime,making your people safer but annoyingparents.”

This entire process of how this gameworks sent my mind on an unstoppablejourney questioning democracy and itstrue nature.

There are always chants by politiciansabout the “greatness” of democracy, butI wonder how true this actually is. You haveto ask yourself, if a game of this nature canbe created with real world­like results, dowe not have architects in our society whosimply dictate how we live? It is a wellknown fact that the world is run by a selectfew corporations who fund politics.

Political funding has often been a hottopic that barely reaches mainstream me­dia (unlike Idols). Even locally you oftensee politicians warming up to people ofprominence. They know they can bebacked and win a constituency.

Like this game, real politics is the same.It’s all about votes and securing your posi­tion of power for the next five years.

We all know that over the next fewmonths the ANC, DA, MF, IFP – all the wellknown parties will be far more visible. Play­ing their game as usual. I think it’s impor­tant for us all to understand that the sys­tem we abide by is failing.

It is flawed and it has shown economical­ly and socially. If the ANC and DA in Ton­gaatwereactuallydoinganythinggoodwewould see many changes.

For a town this small it seems like apathyis the name of the game. Councillorshelping people with burst pipes or over­grown verges is not service delivery.They are playing their game. Their versionof Democracy 3. There is a bigger picture.

A picture beyond pathetic excuses andlack of service delivery.

We should all consider uplifting our so­ciety. Not under the ideology of democracy,but the spirit of being good human beings.Email your comments, compliments,questions or suggestions tokaveels@gmail.com

Democracy ­The game

THEASEN PILLAYUNFORTUNATELY salaries don’t increaseat the same rate as our costs and infla­tion. As such, more and more people findthemselves drowning in debt with no re­covery in sight.

Knocks on the door at night are alwaysscary ­ often you are greeted by a sheriffof the court with a summons or he hasarrived to attach your possessions.

Sales in execution have become theaccepted norm, which often ultimatelyonly serves to further cripple adebtor.

The legal process and the time thisdrags on increases the debt, with no reliefto the debtor. For most people in debt,there seems to be no hope in sight.

Debt counselling has become themost viable and practical solution andhas been recognised as the best solutionto recover from over indebtedness.

Bear in mind that over indebtednessis not when the summons or letters of de­mand arrive, if you are

spending more than 60% of your in­come on paying accounts, you are alreadyover­indebted.

In debt counselling, a consumer con­sultswithaDebtCounsellor(DB)whowilltailor a strategy (payment plan) that willresult in the client becoming debt free in3­5 years.

The DB contacts and makes specificarrangements with each of the consum­ers credit providers, negotiating pay­ments at a lower interest rate. In some in­stances, interest is waived completelyandthecapitalsumisalsoreduceddrasti­

cally.Done effectively and timeously, the

debt counselling process will protectone’s assets from being sold and will putan end to those harassing calls from col­lection agents.

It gives a consumer, and their families,peace of mind in the knowledge that theyare on a definite road towards being debtfree.

During debt counselling, a consumermerely makes one monthly payment tohis DB which gets divided proportionatelybetween all the creditors. All paymentsare done via the DB.

The consumer is provided with updat­

ed statements. It is the most effectiveand convenient, free way to resolve debtproblems People often “hide and avoid”confronting their debts.

Reality is that ignoring debt will notmake it go away. You need to deal withit. There is no shame in being under debtreview.

It should be seen as a temporary mea­sure, which is necessary for a more con­structive financial growth in the future.

Should people want advise on debtcounselling, they can contact TPA­ DebtManagement for a free analysis of thelevel of their indebtedness on 031 8376204 or email marketing@tpalegal.co.za

UMKHANDLU waseMandeni enyakatho ye-KwaZulu-Natal, ubuhlele ingqungquthela yo-kuthuthukisa intsha ethathe izinsuku ezin-tathu eLa Montagne, eBallito enyakathoyeTheku..

UMnuz Sphesihle Zulu, oyiMeya yaseMan-deni uthe le ngqungquthela kumele iphumenezisombululo zokuthi ingathuthukiswa kan-jani intsha yaseMandeni njengoba iningikakhulu.

Uthe: “Kumele sithole izisombululo ezizo-susa intsha emgwaqeni, sisebenzisane nayoukuze ilekelele ekuthuthukisweni komnothowaseNingizimu Afrika.Umasingakwaziukubanengqalasizindaed-

ingwa umnotho wethu singakwazi ukuziqhe-nya ngomkhandlu waseMandeni. Yingakholomhlangano ugxile entsheni,” kusho yena.Uthe lolu hlelo loku letha intuthuko eMandeniolubizwe nge-Intergrated Development Plan(IDP), akumele lugcine eminyakeni emihlanuebihleliwe, kepha kumele luqhubeke njalonase minyakeni ezayo.

Uthe akumele lube wuluhla lwezifiso njekepha kumele lwenziwe ngendlela okuhlelwengayo ngoba mancane amabhizinisi alekelelaekuthuthuthukiseni indawo yaseMandeni.

Uqhube wathi: “Kunemigwaqo eyakhiwango-1980 okumele yakhiwe kabusha, lokhokuse yingxenye yalolu hlelo.

“Umkhandlu ukhethe ukugxila kwezoku-vakasha, ezokulima, ezomnotho nezezokukh-iqiza (manufacturing),” kusho uMnuz Zulu.UMnuz Lulamile Mapholoba, oyiMenenja ka-Masipala waseMandeni, uthe umkhandlungekeu thuthuke zingekho izingqalasizin-da.

Unxuse umkhandlu ukuthi usebenzisane

nosomabhizinisiabazimele. “NjengoHulume-ni ngeke sime sibukele kepha sizolekelelaekuthuthukiseni abantu base Mandeni,” kuc-haza yena.

UMnuzFrikkieBrooks, obemele i-KZNPro-vincial Planning Commission, uthe baningiabantu abathutha kwezinye izindawo asebez-inze eMandeni, yingakho kudingeka ukuthikucijwe amakhono abo baphinde bakwaziukuthola imisebenzi, kube nezinhlelo zokuthiiMandeni ibengaphansi kwe-RichardsBay In-dustrial Zone (RBIZ).

AZIPHUMI kalula izinyembezi kuN­yikinyibhoxo. Kusuke kunzimangempela uma ebonakala ezesula

izinyembezi ngethawula lakhe elincane,ongasabonakali kahle umbala walo.

Uma ngimbuza ukuthi ungihlolela

mhlola muni ezongithela ngezinyembezikwami kungafile muntu, uthule isikhasha­na ehlezi ebhentshini elingaphandle kwe­galaji, wase ethi: “Angikhali. Ngeqiwa uku­casuka nokudumala ngendaba yoku ‘vota’.

Ngisheshe ngasiqonda kahle isizathusokucasuka nokudumala okumlethela iz­inyembezi.

Kunabantu abadala abahlale befakaumoya wokungavoti ngoba bengagcu­liswa yindlela uhulumeni oshayangolonwabu ngayo ekuhlangabezaneninezidingo zomphakathi. Kulula nje ukuthiumuntu athi: “I­African National Congress(ANC) ngeke iphinde ilithole elami ivotingobaayingenzeli lutho.”Akesikuzibekan­cane ukuthi yi­ANC ehola uhulumeniobusayo, sikhulume ngo ‘HULUMENI’ ohol­wa ngabantu abamnyama. Bambalwaabantu abadala abangazi ukuthilatholakala kanzima kangakanani ilungelo

lokuvota lapha eNingizimu Afrika. Akekhoongazi ukuthi kwaphuma imiphefumuloeminingi kangakanani, kulwelwa lelilungelo lokuvota. Kukhona abavalelwaemajele iminyaka eminingi, bancama im­pilo yabo ngoba belwela ilungelo lokuvota.Ngeshwa elikhulu, leli dimoni lokungafuniukuvota selidlulela nasezinganeni.

Ngiphonsela inselelo noma ngubaniophikayo ukuthi ziningi izinguquko ezileth­we uHulumeni oholwa yi­ANC. Lokhuakuchazi ukuthi i­ANC ayinawoamaphutha.. Kodwa angikholwa ukuthilokho sekungadala ukuthi umuntu athingeke avote. Kwasayona le ntsha ethingeke ivote, iningi layo lifunda ezikoleniezazingafuni ngisho ukubezwa nangep­hunga abantu abamnyama, ingas­aphathwa eyokubabona begudlana nabe­lungu emagcekeni esikole. Kukhonaabaqhoqhobele izikhundla okwakun­

gaphushwa nakancane ukuthi kuyokekube ngezabantu abamnyama. Ngike ng­izwe sekulula nje ukuthi umuntu aphumeleobala agxeke uhulumeni ngokukhululeka,bese ngizibuza ukuthi kwakwenzekaningenkathi kusabusa ondlebezikhany’ilan­ga, lapho wawuqale uqalaze ngaphambikokuyokoza ngohulumeni wamaBhunu.

Angikholwa wukuthi kukhona umuntuophile saka, ofuna ukuthi izwe libuyeleezandleni zabacindezeli. Loku kungavin­jwa ukuthi wonke umuntu avote. Nomangabe umuntu akavoteli i­ANC, kubalule­kile avotele iqembu lakhe ngoba ukulahle­ka kwevoti elilodwa nje, kungadala enkuluinhlekelele. Ivoti yilona elilungisa izinto.

Abaningi bazokhumbula ukuthi iNing­izimu Afrika yaphunyukwa yiqatha emlo­nyeni lokusingatha imidlalo yebholayeNdebe yoMhlaba yango­2006 ngobauCharles Dempsey waseNew Zealand en­

gavotanga. Cabanga­ke ukuthi ivotielilodwa nje, lenza inhlekelele engakanani.Khohlwa wukuthi uCharles Dempseykwakungesiyena owaseNingizimu Afrika.Sikhuluma ngevoti. Uyothini unembezawakho sewubona abamnyama sebephin­dele Gibhithe ngoba wena ungavotanga?

Uma ungazi ukuthi ilungelo lokuvotalalwelwa kanzima kangakanani, buzakwabadala.

Ake sikhohlwe ukuthi kuphethe uHulu­meni oholwa yi­ANC, sikhulume ngohulu­meni jikelele, oholwa ngabamnyama.Asivoteni madoda. Kukude lapho siphumakhona. Mhlambe uNyikinyibhoxo ukha­liswa wukubona izithukuthuku zakhe el­wela inkululeko ziphelela obala ngenxa ya­kho ungafuni ukuvota.

Latholakala kanzima ilungelo loku ‘VOTA’
