Refugees on edge as they

wait for news • elr

THE FATE of three political refugees living in Windhoek was hanging in the balance yesterday after a mysterious train of events which they al. leged was harrassment by Namibian immigration officials.

One of the refugees is fully . recognised by both the Minis­try of Home Affairs and the United Nations HighCommis­sion for Refugees (UNHCR), one has been endorsed by the UNHCR, while the third is registered but has not yet been interviewed by the UN.

Problems reportedly began for Peter Kitonga from Kenya, Joseph Makoye and Mosi Noti, both from Mozambique, when they were visiting friends on Wednesday moming.

According to their landlady, about 20 men, claiming to be police officials and 'private investigators', arrived at the house where the men stay in

Katutura. Without showing any iden­

tification. the men made their way into the house and began rummaging through the refu­gees' belongings, said the woman.

They told her they were searching for illegal refugees and that they would retum at . 2OhOO to pick the men up. At 21hOO, when the refugees were back at the house, seven men did indeed retum and entered the house through the back and front doors.

They asked to see the refu­gees' documents, but were only satisfied with those of Kitonga. .. At first they wanted to take

my two colleagues away with them but I explained that they had both gone through the official UN channels, " he said.

At that point, the police, who Kitonga said were armed, decided to leave the men at the house, but said they must re­port at the Ministry of Home Affairs the followiIig mom­ing.

When the refugees arrived at the immigration offices yesterday, they saw David Shimwino, Deputy Director of hnmigration. According to Kitonga, Shimwino said his department had heard stories of refugees in Namibia doing bus~ess by selling goods in South Africa.

He reportedly cleared

NERVOUSLY AWAITING THEIR FATE ... Political refugees Peter Kitonga, Joseph Makoye and Mosi Noti: worried about their future in Namibia.

r

categorically denied that they were armed when they went to the house.

Yesterday Alfeus Kalistu Shiweda, a former Plan com­mander, was called to the wit­ness box.

Shiweda told the court that he had given Heita and Ka­lenga instructions to be in the house and to protect it. He said that on the day of the tragedy, Heita and Kalenga had vIsited his house, only a few metres from the house where the sboot­out took place, to get break­fast.

Afterwards the two menhad returned to their house.

Shiweda said that a short time afterwards, Heita had returned with an AK-47 and had reported to him that they

Kitonga on the strength of his documents, but said the other two refugees should return to his office at 14hOO.

"I also went along in the afternoon to help my friends speak, since their English is not very good.

But when we arrived, Mr Shimwino was not around and we were sent away."

The refugees were told to return again at 08hOO today, but according to Kitonga, they still have no idea why they are being harrassed.

"We have done nothing wrong, and no charges have been brought against us," he maintained. "If they know of

had been attacked by whites and that Kalenga had been injured.

Shiweda said he had in­structed his soldiers to go back to the scene.

When they arrived there they had fWlld Van der Westbuizen's body lying next to the door. He was already dead. A group of policemen had arrived, but Shiweda ordered them to re­main outside the house.

He said that at this stage his men were on the alert for "anything that could happen".

One of the policemen, W ar­rant Officer Simeon Nghoshi (now dead) then arrived at the house. Shiweda told Nghoshi to tell the other policemen to put their weapons in their cars as he was afraid that they' 'will shoot as they did to Kalenga" .

He and Nghoshi had gone to the hospital to fetch the ambu­lance which had ferried Ka-

refugees doing business in Namibia, why don't they con­centrate on them. None of us have moved out of Windhoek since arriving here and we certainly don't have the money to do business. "

He said he could not under­stand why immigration had chosen to pick on him and his two friends, and said the expe­rience had made him feel very uneasy about being in Namibia.

The three refugees had in­formed the International Committee of the Red Cross and the UNDP of the develop­ments, he said. Even though he had been cleared by Shimwino, Kitonga was · afraid of what might happen to him and his two friends. " I'm scared that inunigration might find another reason to pick us up and that

lenga to the hospital. Asked why he had ordered

the policemen to put down their weapons, Shiweda said he had regarded them as enemies as they had been carrying the same weapons which he found at Van der Westhuizen's body.

He also told the court that one ofhis soldier had broughl a white man to him, who was later identified as Botha. Shiw­eda said he had ordered Botha to lie on his stomach next to Van der Westhuizen.

Asked why he had done this, Shiweda replied that it had been standard practice during . the war. He testified that another soldier had also given him a pistol and a two-way radio vWllch had been picked up behind the house.

Kalenga told the court that he had been in charge of the situation until Colonel Louw of the police and a senior Swapo

we might be repatriated against our will." He quoted the ex-_ ample of a Ugandan regugee, without UNHCR recongition, who, said Kitonga, had been sent home last month without his consent. He said he was shocked by what had happened and no longer felt safe in the country. "I didn't expect things to go this way in Namibia, particularly since so many people from this country lived in exile for so long. Namibi­ans were accorded assistance by just about every country when they were outside and needed help. " Kitonga said be had sought exile in Namibia because it was far away from his own country, where, as a student activist, he could not safely return.

• 'I also thought it would be a

office bearer at Oshakati, Holden Ulenga, arrived.

Bothahad been released and the'weapons, anAK-47. RPK, RPG-7, two mortar shells, the pistol, radio and the R -5 found next to the dead man had been given to Ulenga, who handed it to the police.

Presiding Judge Bryan O 'Lino indicated that it .was poSSIble to recallColonel Louw and police officers to clear up the matter of the R5 rifle found next to Van der Westhuizen's body, the pistol and the radio.

Mzee Simon Kaukungwa, who was Swapo's co-ordina­tor at Oshakati at that time, will probably also be called to give evidence as some wit­nesses told the court that he had been the one who handed the weapons to the police. Shiweda claimed that he had handed the weapons to Ulenga.

An attempt to contact Shim­wino at Home Affairs proved unsuces3ful yesterday, while a colleague working in the same office refused to give his name and said he could not provide any information about the case.

The visitor said he had seen evi­dence that pupils without toilet paper are tearing up their mat­tresses, using paper and even stones and pieces of iron to wipe themselves and dropping these down the toilet. " No sewage system could cope," he said. At Nujoma school the assistant to

the principal said this problem is worsened by litter in the school grounds which is dropping into the pipes !l1ld blocking them. Ankama said on the whole the Ministry of Works is succeeding in supplying . soaps and toilet paper to schools and he was not aware of problems which must be very localised. Yesterday the Department of Works at Os­hakati said they had only re­ceived the complaints on Tues- -

day and would probably send staff there today. Adding to the health crisis at schools is a na­tion-wide hold-up in supplies of cleaning chemicals. The tender board is still evaluating tenders from chemical. Schools have ap­parently been drawing from Government stores which have not been able to cope and sup­plies are urgently needed. Ankama said the tender board is set to meet on this today.

Call for union unity THE National Union of Namibian Workers is ap- . proaching other . union federations in a bid to start unity talks over the next few months. The move has been prompted by the need to establish greater worker strength but Government and employers are also said to support it.

At present there are many smaller union federations, some with only a few members but large claims. The natiooal strat­egy of a three-sided partner­ship between Government, employers and unions only succeeds when the unions are able to speak with one voice, according to Namibia Trans­port and Allied Workers Un­ion general secretary Willie Matsi. The 100 OOO-strong NUNW hopes to talk with other federations, while it expects individual unions will discuss unity talks with their counter­parts. The first meeting will probably be next month with the Namibian Christian Social Trades Unions, whose main member is the Namibian Build­ing Workers Union led by Aloysiu's Yon. This has had a ' successful partnership with the NUNW -affiliated Metal and Allied . Namibian Workers

LABOUR REPORTER

Union in negotiating with the construction industry in Na­mibia's first industry-wide pay and other negotiations. Other groupings may include the Namibia Trades Unions group­ing and regional groups.

The long-awaited labour law will put. pressure on smaller unions as it will make recogni­tion agreements far more common. Unions will have to prove their membership be­fore winning such agreements.

One sticking point will be the NUNW's continuing af­filiation to Swapo, which was apparendy confirmed by a huge majority of members at a re­cent congress. However, Matsi pointed out that some of the other groupings would not have objected if the federation af­filiated to their political par­ties so the issue was not whether to be affiliated at all, but sim­ply who to.

"The Qther unions are still singing and dancing the record of past and political differ­ences," said Matsi. "1bat is no longer the issue (witbNUNW)". He added that the federation had shown it could represent workers irrespective of their political affiliations.

Matsi also recently called for a national seminar of all

trade unions, according to Nampa, so they could iron out their differences. He had at­tended a three day conference on International Labour Stan­dards organised by the Inter­national Labour Organisation from October 15-18. This was to prepare for setting up a fu­ture Labour Advisory Council bringipg together unions and employers.

The move ties in closely with the NUNW's call for one in­dustry, one union. Matsi added the employers should also coo.sider fomting one large body to negotiate key issues. This is the trend in South Africa, where Cosatu and Sactu may be con­sidering a merger while they often negotiate with o~ em­ployers' federation. In the rail­ways, the separate white, In­dian, "coloured" and black workers' unions have also started moves towards unity.

One interesting merger would be between the Namibian Public Workers Union and the Public Service Union of Namibia, fonnerly GSSA. The Govern­ment speaks to both but for­mally recognises neither, al­though this may change once labour laws are in place. It seems PSUN 'speaks more for middle- and senior-level staff while Napwu represents' 'blue collar" worker issues.

'Race was never issue in Onduri hotel cases' JUDGEMENT on an applica­tion for the two accused in the Onduri hotel case is due to be passed in the Windhoek Re­gional Court today.

Hennan K.iihn and Burkbrudt Friedrichsmeyer are accused of allegedly evicting three people from their hotel at Outjo . .

When the hearing resumed yesterday, the evidence of the last State witness, Moses H.aufiku was heard. According

.10 t}le testimony of a Warrant Officer of the Police Diamond Branch, Christof Swartbooi, who said he was not the inves­tigating officer, two state wit­nesses, Shipiki and Kondjeni stationed at the Statehouse couldn't be located to give statements.

Defence Counsel S du Toit argued that the acCused should be discharged, he said that although the 1979 law on. ra­cial discrimination fotbids hotel owners to refuse admission to clients on racial grounds, the same law states that ahotel can reserve the right to refuse ac­cess to certain sections of the hotel, such as the toilet, pri­vate bar or restaurant.

STAFF REPORTER

It was for the State to prove beyond reasonable doubt that

. the complainants had been denied admission on racial grounds, said Du Toit.

He said there was evidence that before and after the Ben Ulenga incident, the hotel had been used by people of all races. ' He quoted a statement made by North Western Regiorial Commissioner Hans Gabriel Boois who said he had slept there in February, and listed sumames of black people which appeared in the hotel register.

In the case of deputy minis­ter of Wildlife and Nature Conservation, Ben Ulenga and his driver, lcel Kalomo, the dispute had centred on the use of the lavatory, which is re­s~cted to patrons of the hotel, Du Toit continued.

According to Kalomo's state> . ment, problems started when

there was no one at reception to give permission to non-resi­dents to use the toilet. The fact that the two men had been challenged on this had created

a false impression in their minds of the management's motives. The two complainants never suggested that the acccused had barred them on racial grounds, said Du Toit .

In the'case of Helena Iyambo it was not clear which part of the hotel she was barred from, said Du Toit, but she was nei­ther refused service nor was any reference made to her race.

As a prosecutor Iyambo should have known her rights and should have laid a charge eight months ago if she felt she had a reasonable case. As it was, said Du Toit, hercasehad never been raised prior to Ulenga's case.

Du Toitused the same argu­ment to dismiss the evidence of Boois, who had never ex­pressed disatisfaction over treatment at the hotel until the Ulengaincident was raised. His. allegation that Herman Ktihn had told him to "go where the black people are" referred to a previous experience.

Cure for Nam's industry blues?

The evidence of David Andreas Shikongo and Moses Haufiku did not refer to race. They had been served in the public bar, offered a room and served in the private bar. Ac­cording to Du Toit, when they had retuIIJx1 to the hotel a second time. it was merely to provoke the management by trying to prove they had been told by a former hotel employee that blacks were not allowed.

The workshop was a com­bined effort by the Minfstries of Finance and of Trade and Indus-, try.

Other key points from the . , seminar in~luded th~ question as

to whether Namibia should rush to ,switch too many resources away from its main earners -mining, fishing and fanning. Herrigel said the purpose of in­dustrialisation was only to take production of these basic com­modities a·bit further by process­ing them. One good example is

the working of marble and gran­ite which Namibia produces but currently exports in raw form. Some. speakers called for cash grants to help establish indus­tries. Potential investors will also look at how stsble the' eco­nomic .and budget management of the country is, wha~ sort of . framework and policies are put in place. In the long-terill, key will be how much the country invests in educating and training ,its people, knoW!! u , "human re" 'soUrces" and ,in<;reismgly lhe~ focus of attention in Africa.

Howeyer tomatoes could be grown for the fishing industry, leather industries could be developed including in communal fanning areas and in

many other ways some more industry could develop. Much deb'lte went into the concept of "export processing zones" with speakers arguing both for and against them.

Most speakers were eloquent on the need for Government not to. pomil!ate the ·economy as it does in Namibia: Government should cut restrictions, set sound policies and invest in roads and other infrastructure, but leave production and. manqfacturing to'the' private-sectOr. " -, i

Currently only five per cent of .the economy (gross domestic prOduct) and two per cent of national investment comes from manufacturing and there is a limit to how many new jobs can be provided in mining which is. grad ually running out and in fam :ing.

If Ktihn had been rude, said Du Toit, there was still no indication that he had prac­tised racial discrimination. Though certain conclusions could well have been drawn in . the minds of the witnesses, there was no firm proof that racial discrimination had been the intention.

Arguing against accused number I, the Onduri Hotel Company, State Attomey~Iohn Walters said the hotel has been selling liquor without a licence ever since the holder of the licence, Kiihn, resigned. ·

AdVoCate Peter Koep, ap­pearing for the company, said that although the law said a company licence could beheld by only one nominated person, it was unreasonable to argue .that a license ceased to exist if that person left the company.

NeW" bursary scheDle announce·d PERNLlNENT~cret~y for education and Culture Vitalis Ankama this week announced the introduc­tion of the new -Public ~rvice of N8mibia Study Grant Scheme.

The new scheme supercedes all previous Government bur­sary schemes, inclu<ling those previously administered by the fonner ethnic adminstrations.

In addition Ankama also announced an average 23 per cent upward adjustment to the grants of all holders of Gov­ernment bursaries.

For example, in the coming year the highest amount avail-

able for study at university­level will be RH 500 a year.

Ankama stressed that the~ revised amounts would also apply to the 2 400 existing bursary holders, who are ex­pected to continue their stud­ies under the scheme in 1992.

The new scheme which is administered by the Ministry of Education and Cultme ~s provision for the award of bursaries and grants-in-aid for 1992.

It is aimed at enabling pro­spective and in-service public servants to qualify themselves for entry positions to the Pub-

lic 'Service of Namibia. Ankama said the Study Grant

Scheme is wide-ranging and covers areas of study which are in line with Namibia's pri-0rity developmental needs.

. These include the training of persons for postitions in the education, health, agriculture and various scientific fields of the Public Service once they have qualified.

Ankama further said the ministry was striving to achieve equity and fairness in the award of bursaries under the scheme, and to eliminate the distor­tions of the past caused by the

fonner ethnic administrations . In order to achieve these

objectives the ministry will adopt an interim strategy, which will be reviewed next year.

Under the interim strategy the funds available will be al­located to regions of the min­sitry on a proportional basis.

Any savings and surpluses on any regional allocation will then be made available to candidates on a national list.

Candidates will have to compete for the grants on the basis of merit, on both the regional and the national level.

World adventure opens up to young Namibians THE worldwide adven­ture-education youth scheme Operation Raleigh has opened up to Namibi­ans. Application forms are now available for the se­lection of the first group of young Namibians who would like to take part in the project.

Originally founded in 1984 at the instigation of Britain's Prince Charles, Operation Raleigh 1 was a four yearproj­ect based on expeditions to remote areas of the world. Because of its success, Opera­tion Raleigh 2 was begun in 1989 to continue the aims of the project. '

Under the guidance of the . Raleigh Trust, also set up in 1989, the project now operates a worldwide youth, develop- . ment programme designed to give young people self-confi­dence in their own abilities as individuals, leaders and man­agers. Most importantly, it tries to develop an awareness of teamwork.

. Over the last five years, Operation Raleigh has deployed 6 378 young people and volun­teer staff from 46 nations. Participants have gone to 60 destinations around the world on 80 land and sea expedi­tions.

Operation Raleigh is a 'chal­lenge to achieve' through a series of unique experiences both at home and on expedi­tion.

The project is currently rep­resented in 49 cruntries through­out the world. In 1990, it raised R122 000 to save the African Elephant.

Participants worked with National Park wardens in their constant battle against poach­ers by building vehicle work­shops in Uganda and Zimbabwe and carrying out vital mainte­nance.

Community work is also practical. In Panama, Chile and Malaysia, the young volunteers have helped carry out over 400 cataract eye operations, built 17 local clinics, 20 schools and 34 bridges - one of which was over 300 feet long.

There isn't much time off, but exciting advelltures are built into the work. Getting to a remote rural clinic, for example, could involve a 100 kilometer

THE recent announcement of Chief Joshua Moral­iswani's appointment as Paramount Chief could cause the already simmer­ing tension in the Caprivi between Masubia and Mafwe to explode into vio­lence. The matter is going to take some skilful diplo­macy on the part of the Namibian Government, and possibly a refusal to sanction the new Para­mount Chieftainship, if the situation is to be contained~

Oxfam's daunting tasks after 50 years' effort

THE MasubialMafwe rift is not something new in the Caprivi, but it was manipulated by the South African occupation regime to its own advantage in the past. The South Africans, as Namibians are only too pain­fully aware, were masters of 'divide and rule' tactics, and they succeeded in certain parts of this country, probably far beyond even their own expectations. In terms of a Supreme Court ruling in 1986, and after an attempt on the part ofMoraliswani to be installed as Paramount Chief in 1982, resulting in a protracted dispute between ChiefBoniface Mamili of the Mafwe OXFAM, the British-b~ BORN in 1942 as the Oxford Committee for Famine military conflict as key causes and Chief Moraliswani of the Masubias. the two relief agency whose name Relief.

ship. Quite how this decision was taken at the Masubia headquarters at Bukalo over the weekend, no one seems to know. Without seeking to belittle the tribal traditions of groups in the Caprivi, it is time that both Chiefs, and their foUowers, were told that the Government will tolerate no nonsense from whatever side it comes. The Government needs to take a strong stand in the Caprivi, as they did in the case of Rehoboth. If the Paramount Chieftaincy of Moraliswani, apparently

. on his own initiative, is sanctioned by the Govern­ment, then it will be tantamount to a declaration of war against the Mafwe and predictably dire conse­quences will ensue.

Koevoet are alive and 'w-ell in SA THE Assistant Representative of the South African Government to Namibia, Wemer Obermeyer, said that ex-Koevoet members in South Africa are only assisting the South African Police (SAP) in anti-poaching activities and crime prevention, and are not involved in any political killings in the country as alleged.

Obermeyer was responding to revelations made in a South African newspaper about ex-Koevoet members' "unden:over"

. activities at a Moordkop base in Northem Transvaal. According to the newspaper report, "The Fighters from Koevoet,

a South AfricanPolice unit that achieved notoriety during the war in Namibia, had allegedly been seen around the local township in Hippos (military vehicles) looking for members of ANC-aligned civic organisations".

ANC President Nelson Mandela blamed the South African

Govement for "importing the dealth squads that have been killing our brothers in Namibia. They have brought them here. They are operating here," he said. Mandela made the statement after the cold-blooded assassination of civic leader and ANC member Sam

. Ntuli in South Africa recently. Obermeyer dismissed the allegations as unfounded and said

there was nothing "sinister" about the activities of the ex-. Koevoet members. He said they were neither trained norinvoived

in any military activities. They had only assisted the SAP in the execution of their policing duties without being given the power of even arresting the locals in SA

He stated that these former fighters went to SA of "own free will" looking for employment and were not recruited by the South African military. - Nampa

IN THE NEWS

Rocking the political boat AS the campaign for Zam­bia's October 31 general elections heats up, local pop musicians have become bolder' and are determined to play a political role.

Their songs are hot. Presi­dent Kenneth Kaunda' s ruling United National Independence Party (UNIP) may find them offensive but many Zambians seem impressed.

AFTER 17 years of one-party rule and tigI.J.t restric­tions on music critical of politicians, Zambia's pop stars are on a march..to freedom. Their latest num­bers ~_hot -and selling fast. Oppo~tion songs are playing a key role in the current election campaign. But as Geniini News Service reports, licenced retail­ers and state-run radio stations will not touch them.

Then the denunciations end and along comes the campaign pitch: '·'Brothers and sisters, .keep your voter's cards safely. Vote wisely. Vote MMD and Frederick Chiluba for presi­dent".

One chorus, sung in Eng­lish, urges voters " to choose between stable prices and rock­eting ones". Another, in a local dialect,-SaYs: '"'It's time to chase away the fire". In unison, band members chant "Kuya bebele (UNIPmustgo)".

"People just want more and more of this stuff" said one fan. "It's good for a change".

Until the advent of multi­partyism in Zambia, music was generally confined to attacks on improper social behaviour or pro-UNlP sloganeering. Now the lid is off and the boys are on the loose: no understate­ments, no beating about the bush, no catering to any of the old taboos for the sake of the ruling class.

"We sing .. they condemn"; one opposition supporter said, deriding the government party. "They call it anti-party stuff, but there is nothing they can do about it because we have en­tered a new era".

Zambia's leading anti-gov­ernment pop group is the Shala­wambe Band whose vibes seem to have struck a nerve with old-guard politicians. While

never formally banned, Shala­wambe's pro-oppo_sition. r_aps are-never heard on Zambia's four state-run radio stations.

Band leader Dolenzy Kabwe says the group has also runinto difficulties recording its con­troversialhits. "Producing the tapes was aheadache" he said. "No studio would touch the stuff, so we decided to setup a makeshift studio somewhere in Lusaka and went ahead with our work".

Shalawambe's six hits -dedicated to the leading oppo­sition group, the Movement for Multiparty Democracy -(MMD) hit the streets in early September. More than 3 000 copies sold out within a few weeks.

Still, no licenced outlets would sell the . recordings. "Everyone says the stuffis too hot" , says Kabwe. "So we give it to the street boys and other sympathisers of the MMD".

Not long ago, "hot" would

Music of democracy

have been an understatement to descnlle Shalawambe's "Fire, Fire", which celebrates the MMD manifesto and depicts the movement's leadership as 'water' meant to douse the fire, or misery brought about by UNIP.

'CCN warns of rightwing US churches THE Council of Churches in Namibia has warned of the spread of rightwing Churches into eastern and southern Africa and says that what has been seen so far in Namibia is "only the tip of the iceberg".

The grim prophecy came after a workshop for Churches in east­em and southern Africa which was held in Windhoek.

The seminar ran from October 17-20 and was organised by an Ecumenical Documentation and Information Centre for East and Southern Africa, first set up by the 12 Councils of Churches in the region Over 50 people came to Windhoek from Angola, Botswana, Lesotho, Kenya, Mozambique, Tanzania, Zambia and Zim­babwe.

Most of the weekwastakenup in monitoring the spread of these Churches into the countries, such as Kenya where there are now some 19 or 20 different Cllurches, and ZlUnbia where the Cllurches have proved able to adapt and use protective clauses of the Constitution.

According to a statement prepared by the group, right-wing Churches aim to undermine Churches which preach an active interest on issues of social justice and poverty by telling their members tu concentrate on God and spritual matters. They deny the material and structural causes of poverty and oppression in Africa.

Asked to be more specific, Reverend Keith Vermeulen, a research officer at the CCN, sai!;l there are three ways of noticing

such Churches. First their origins or funding, which is nearly' always from North America although sometimes through South Africa Their theology which is ., otbelWorldly" , concentrating on life after death and representing problems people could tackle themselves as being out of the scope of Christians or as issues of God against Satan.

Thirdly these Churches have large amounts of overseas funds, which makes them able to attract particularly young Christians from other Churches. They also concentrate on sources of power, for instance approaching President Moi of Kenya or setting up television stations such as "Transworld" to broadcast to South African homelands. Key figures in these Cllurches are the US evangelists such as Jimmy Swaggart or Reinhard Bohnke. They also come in the form of "aid agencies" such as the evangelical World Vision. Sometimes they appear as well-funded factions within existing Churches, such as the Roman Catholic or Angli­can Churches. The mainstream Churches, who often were part of the original colonial expansion, are now vulnerable to these Churches which appear to be part of a ~o-colonial move. .

The working paper of the seminar warns that the rigbtwing Churches tend to launch "an open or veiled attack" on the work of Christians who work for the poor and oppressed as part of their faith. It adds that they have "a subtle ideological basis which justifies the political, economic and cultural dominance of the 'First World' (and America particularly) over Africa".

'Joint administration' is a sham

THE incident recently in which a key UN official was initially refused access to Walvis Bay, serves to show that even the agreement in principle between Namibia and South M­rica on so-called 'joint administration' of the port is a sham.

This newspaper has in the past expressed itself unre­servedlyagainst the proposed 'joint administration' ofWalvis Bay. We beUeve that Resolution 432 of the UN Security Council is a binding decision which calls for the rel,!m oLth~ port and ..?rr.!~~.)J:4! islands to Namibia. We don't beUeve we shoula compromise on the issue, and in so doing, enable the South African Government, once again, to 'buy time'.

Although both countries agreed in principle in May this year to 'joint administration' of the port, so far no concrete progress has been made, and it is dlftlcult to estabUshjust who is responsible for the delay.

But it is safe to assume that if South Africa had good intentions with regard to 'joint administration' they would somewhat relax their bureaucratic attitudes. Apart from this incident involving a UN official who has in any case been in and out of the port on several occasions recently, this newspa­per has learned that Namibians leaving the South African­controned enclave are often thoroughly searched and har­assed in the process.

Minibuses ftlled with goods and people are apparently de­Uberately omoaded and searched on many occasions.

It would appear that the Namibian Government does not want to antagonise its South African counterpart. Last week, when interviewed by the NBC, Namibia's Foreign Minister was almost overly cautious on the question ofWalvis Bay. The only strong statements on the reintegration of the port have come from our President, who at last week's Commonwealth Summit accused the South Africans of "calculated and sinis­ter foot-dragging".

We feel very strongly that joint administration is an excuse for postponing the handover of the port - a sop to appease the Namibian Government and keep it quiet until such time as a decision has been made.

We beUeve further that it will take both a lot of discussion, organisation and time to get joint administration off the ground, and that by the time it has been effected, no one will want to disturb the status quo.

It will only succeed in postponing the final reintegration of Walvis Bay into Namibia.

In view of the illustrated 'bad faith' on the part of the South African government as we have cited above, the Namibian Government should, in our opinion, revoke its agreement in principle to joint administration, and say they are only prepared to discuss th~ reintegt:ation of the port, its status, but not its use.

We fought for Resolution 435, so, in the figurative sense,let us be prepared to fight for Resolution 432 as well!

Shamir to lead Israeli team to ME conference

DAMASCUS, Syria: Arab parties to next week's peace conference mapped out a strat­egy yesterday that,like moves earlier by Israel, cemented hard­line positions.

The Arab officials meeting in Syria ruled out any separate treaties with Israel, demanded a halt to Jewish settlements in occupied tenitories and insisted Israel negotiate on Jerusalem.

Syrian Foreign Minister Farouk al-Sharaa said the four Arab parties still technically at warwithIsrael- Syria, Jordan, Lebanon and the Palestinians -and Egypt agreed to form a co­ordination committee to su­pervise the negotiations with Israel at the conference in Madrid which opens Wednes­day.

Israel' shawkish prime min­ister, Yitzhak Shamir, an­nounced on Wednesday that he will lead the Israeli team to the talks, initially set at for­eign minister level. Israeli Foreign Minister David Levy, who was pushed aside by Sha­mir, has a more conciliatory approach to peace than the Jewish state's premier.

In Jerusalem, Shamir aide Y ossi Ahimeir said yesterday that Shamir decided to head IsraeI's delegation because he wanted to present the strong­est possible front against the Arabs.

The Syrians have been press­ing the other Arab states who

will attend the peace confer­ence to agree not to sign any separate peace accord with the Jewish state.

The Syrians fear more mod­erate Arabs could repeat Egypt's separate 1979 peace treaty with Israel.

That treaty, the only one the Jewish state has with any Arab neighbour, shattered the Arab alliance and neutr~ed the Arabs' major military power.

Sharaa said the co-ordina­tioncommittee's main task will be to ensure .. a unified Arab stance."

He said the goals in Madrid were a "complete Israeli with­drawal" from occupied Arab tenitories, including Jerusalem, an "immediate freeze" on the construction of Jewish settle­ments in these territories, and "realization of the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people" who seek an independent homeland. .

The co-ordination commit­tee will "operate for as long as the Middle East peace confer­. ence is under way, either in the form of bilateral or multilat­eral talks, " said Yasser Abed­Rabbo, a member of the PLO's ruling executive committee.

The announcement by Sha­mir;whoheads the most rigbt­wing government in Israel's history, likely will spur Arab states to upgrade their Madrid delegations with political heavy­weights as well.

As positions hardened, the White House urged all parties on Wednesday to go to Madrid "with an open mind. " _

Conference sources .in the Syrian capital said Shamir's action galvanized the Arab ministers.

"Until today, the views of the participants had been widely divergent on some points. But they felt that in the face of Shamir's decision, their best weapon in Madrid to boost their arguments will be total har­mony," one source said, speak­ing on condition of anonym­ity.

Shamir's decision caused a political furore in Israel. An angry Levy said he would stay home, but those close to him said he probably would not resign.

The Israeli delegation will be stacked with Shamir confi­dants, hard-line legislators from ' his Likud bloc and possibly a representative of Jewish set­tlers in the occupied West Bank and Gaza Strip, Israeli media reported.

Syria and the PLO, setting aside long-time rivalries, se­cured Arab backing for their demand !hat the status of Jerusa­lem and the Jewish settlements be raised at the peace confer­ence's ceremonial opening.

Israel has said repeatedly it will not discuss Jerusalem or the settlements. - AP

'Minister accused

of murder NAIROBI: A witness at a Kenyan court inquiry into the murder of foreign minister Robert 0u1c0 last year said yesterday he believed a senior cabinet minister may have been part of a group which carried out the killing.

In what promises to turn the inquiry into a political bomb­shell, Ouko' s former political campaign manager James K'OyoonameGBnergyMinis­ter Nicholas Biwott as possi­bly being involved in the kill­ing.

"I'm not saying he (Biwott) was the one who did it ... but it could have been Mr Biwott in concert with some people," K 'Oyoo said.

Robert Ouko's mutilated an4 charred remains were found near his home in February last year, soon after he called for an investigation into high-level corruption.

K 'Oyoo previously testified in the inquiry - now in its 239th day-thatOukohadtoldhimhe believed his life was in danger after he had been threatened by Biwott. He was recalled by the judicial commission's chairman, Justice Johnson Gicheru, yesterday to explain why he felt too insecure to volunteer certain information during police investigations imo Ouko's death.

"I was feeling insecure from powerful people who accord­ing to my judgment had a hand in the killing of the late minister ... Mr Biwott is a pow­erful man," K 'Oyoo told the court.

He said he did not trust Kenyan Commissioner of Po­lice Philip Kilonro during police investigations and also with­held informatjon from British

Croats retreat in Dubrovnik ZAGREB: The Yugoslav army and navy drove Croatian forces out of Dubrovnik' s southern suburbs and towards the gates of the histonc Adriatic city in a fierce assault from the land and sea yesterday.

In a major setback to Croatia 's war effrt, the navy landed troops on the tourist beaches of Kupari, six km south-east of the city ,and forced Croatian fighters to retreat under a barrage of shells.

European Community observers said the army agreed to a ceas~efire around Dubrovnik from yesterday evening but such truces have rarely lasted more than a few days, or even hours.

12 protesters killed by army, ANTANANARNO: As many as -12 people were killed in a confrontation between soldiers and anti-government demonstra­tors in northern Madagascar, according to local media reports yesterday.

Living Forces Radio, run by a coalition opposed to President Didier Rasiraka, said 12 people were killed and about 40 wounded in the incident on Wednesday at Antsiranana, on the northem tip of the island nation.

Cambodian refugees rejOice BANGKOK: Cambodian refugees along the Thai-Cambodian border marked the Paris accord ending 13 years of-war in their homeland with prayers and parties yesterday, Western relief workers said.

Some refugees, however, scorned the peace accord as merely a piece of paper and said they would wait before celebrating, the relief workers added.

Many Cambodians in Site 2, the largest camp, with nearly 200 ()()() refugees, spent the night praying at temples in the compound after hearing radio reports of Wednesday's signing, one relief official said.

Hopes of Mozambique ceasefire ROME: After 16 months of talks between between Mozam­bique 's leftist government and right-wing rebels, mediators said yesterday that both sides are now committed to achieving a lasting cease-fire in the 14-year-old civil war .

Colonel Dimitri Tumashkov, spokesman for the remaining 250 ()()() Soviet forces in Germany's former communist east, said there had been at least 75 incidents since August 1 of soldiers or their families suffering physical assault or verbal abuse.

BRAZZA VILLE: Mutinous Zairean soldiers pillaged the mining centerof Lubumbashi again yesterday and the new prime minister was under siege in his home in the capital.

Bemardin Mungul-Diaka, appointed prime minister on Wednesday by Presiiient Mobutu Sese Seko, was hud­dling in his house in Kinshasa guarded by the president's spe­cial militia against hundreds of demonstrators who began attacking his residence on Wednesday night, Zaire state radio said.

In Brazzaville, across the Congo River from Kinshasa, there were unconfirmed reports protesters had tried to set Mun­gul-Diaka's house on fire.

Numerous clashes w~re re­ported between plOtesters and troops in the Zairean capital that left severaLpeople w.jured. Zaire radio said demonstrators set up banicades blocking many Kinshasa streets and stoned cars.

Shops and offices Closed and public transport stopped run­ning.

Mobutu a made no comment on the new riots. It was unclear whether he had lost control of the army, or, as the opposition has charged, was hoping the unrest would bring chaos and

set the stage for imposing a military government, as he did when he took power in 1965 after hundreds of thousands died.

Mungul-Diaka, a minor Zairean opposition leader once imprisoned fur embezz.ling state funds, was named prime min­ister on Wednesday after Mobutu fired popular opposi­tionleader Etienne Tshisekedi for refusing to take orders from him. The new prime minister has failed to win support of op­position parties in Kinshasa. Westem governments also withheld recognition of his appointment, pending discus­sions.

Delegates to a three-day conference starting in Durban today said they would be makihgthe boldest attempt so far to forge a

HUNTING THE HOGS WHILE AVOIDING THE HARARE HELICOPTER GUNSHIPS

POSING as the Playboy cor­respondent for the Middle East, I managed to secure a seat on the press plane to Harare last week to attend the 28th Commonwealth Heads of Government Meet­Ing.

Unprepared to go alone, I hired a large clean-shaven black man who was prepared to masquerade as my pho­tographer.

Unable to ftnd anyone will­Ing to give us a boarding pass, we had to rely on babbling about F -stops, deadlines and racial discrimination before being given seats In the bad part of Economy Class, not that It makes much differ­ence because even FIrst Class passengers wlll have their lunp ripped· through their mouthslfwe happen to hit an unidentlfled obstacle like the ground.

We landed at Harare In­ternational and immediately began bribing like champi­ons. Customs officials were so offended that they confts­cated our credit cards and threw us Into the parking lot, . where a taxi driver with !an Smith teeth told us that ev­ery hotel In the city was occu­pied, so we-waited until he had reached 120kmh before tossing him from the vehicle.

Transport and a place to _ sleep, we thought. It emerged that he was lying, and we found a place not listed on the Guide to Good Hotels. It was probably listed among

hotels to be condemned, but the man at reception seemed happy to see us. The rate card said 100 Zlm dollars a night. Then he spoke Shona to us, and seemed-strangely pleased when we replied In broken Oshiwambo. He smiled and asked us where we were from. When we told him he stopped smlllng and started laughing. He mpped the rate card - 300 US dollars a night - and reached for a Matabele war club beneath the counter. He explained that foreigners pay In foreign currency, and as far as he was concerned any visitor to Zimbabwe must either be from the CIA or the United Nations. Wlndboek, he in­sisted, was a town In south­ern California 57kms from Leningrad, which of course it is.

We took his photograph and later sent it to the Cen­tral Intelligence, Organisation with the words "Down with fascist Zanu-PF" scrawled In red on the back. Unfortu­nately we didn't get his ad­dress.

Then he told us that room service ended at 10pm, but we were lucky enough to ftnd a waiter's uniform. After get­ting rid of the body, we served our own room service until dawn. Hotel staft'began avoid­ing the second noor and the only way to clean the room was to wrap up the empty bottles and syringes In the photographer's blanket and

throw it over the balcony. Management tried to call the riot police, but found there was a waiting list. The stu­dents were being attended to first, which suited us fine.

After securing the floor against possible invasion, and ~h~eagenulneCIA spy and the team from Sky TV, we headed for our taxi which had since been re-sto­len by a syndicate working for an opposition transport company hired by an Ethio­pian businessman pulllng strings for the Cablnda Ub­eratlon Front.

It took a wide-angle lens to get us to the conference cedre, which was crawling In para­mllltary thugs with bulges beneath their jackets - and that was just the African leaders.

Getting accredited was no problem once we had swop­ped our Playboy credentials with a semen-stalned old back who had spent the last 13 years covering some or other civil disturbance In eastern Europe. -

Securing a prime position for the arrivals by selling all our ftlm to a black market­eer posing as one of the or­ganisers, the game began.

The hunt was on for the biggest Hog (Head of gov­ernment) and it became a feeding frenzy of cameras, notebooks and microphones whenever one of them strayed too far from security.

Apart from the card-car-

rylng Zanu-PF loyalists, we were all banned from cover­ing the sessions and had to rely on media brleftngs to keep us informed. Fortu­nately, the briefings were televised Uve on closed-cir­cuit video, and we found that we could cover the entire conference without moving from the press bar.

By the end of the week, the media centre was way be­yond sleazy.

Disease and despair was in the air, and the Japanese con­tingent began wearing high­mtration face masks. You had to stand on the toDet seat to urinate, and even then the crabs could jump as high as yourkoees.

With more than one thou­sand members of the world's most abused profession op­erating on a hundred differ­ent deadlines every nilnute of the day, there was no place for sensitivity and good manners.

It was a time for bribery and naked violence, and we emerged as champions.

Thanks to the US dollar and a successful knife-fight In the women's toDets, we made It Into the press pool for the Victoria FaUs retreat. When the organisers put us on the same flight as Joshua Nkomo, I knew they were flnaDy trying to get rid of us.

But we landed safely, and were driven directly to the Falls by a man who bad dearly gone Insane from years of

heat and German tourists. We were told to wait for the Hogs at a demarcated point whOe our guards went offfor a cold Zambezllager. After two bours I headed ofltbrougb the rain forest, convinced that the H~ were hiding out from us.

By sunset I was hopelessly lost, until I stumbled across ' a group of men with shiny' new guns and "'DEATH TO UNIP'" T-shirts. I asked if they had seen any Hogs re­cently, and they kept me there for nine hours teUing me lies about Kaunda's plans for the election.

They said they were part of an unofficial observer group, peacekeepers hired by certain western Interests which preferred to remain anonymous. I ned into the forest, and was almost im­mediately apprehended by seven men wearing three­piece klkois.

They showed me pictures of arap Mol and then thrust wads of currency and a si­lenced pistol at me, asking if I could get close to this man. When I saw it was shUllngs, I pretended to be an IsraeU missionary.

They also showed me a photograph of their beloved leader, who had a startling resemblance to the NBC's controller of news.

Eventually, dehydrated and shaking, Imade it back to the parking lot where there should have been a gathering of con-

cerned press people wonder­ing where I was. Instead, there were eighteen taxi drivers whose vehicles had been com­mandeered and driven across the border Into Zambia by a delegation ofballot-counters speaking In accents picked up on the wrong side of Ventersdorp.

When I got back to the hotel, there was no sign of my photographer.

Sensing that he was out there chasing Hogs, my pro­fessionallnstincts told me to catch up with the pool. This I did, and the hotel pool was perfect for what I had in mind ... until my coUeague notlned the Zimbabwe Defence Force that I was missing. Sitting OD

a sunken stool up to my neck In water with only the cold clink of ice disturbing the cry of wild birds, it was cruel to send In the helicopter gunships.

Alerted to the fact that a maverick Journalist was on the loose, ZDF snipers took to the skies in a frenzied search before the renegade began bayonetting Hogs and push­ing their wives over the falls.

At this point, my notebook renects several pages ofreU­gious symbols and shorthand notes which mean nothing ' when translated.

I have a vague recollection of returning to Harare and being subjected to a bright white light, which was either the final press conference or interrogation by the CIO.

Opportuniste s~rem vor~eril)g

'n Teken van die grootste dem9krasl~ In dlC! Wireld Is clat claar 'n groot mate VI .. l ooreenstemmlng of k~nseDSUS betrefrende die algemene landsbeleld tossen party!: In 1lie lande bestaan.

Die mikpunt In die me.este van hierdle lande Is ont aan die bevolking die dlnge te geewaarna die meeste Inwoners van die land smag soos gesondheid, onderwys en sekuriteit -om 'n paar op te noem. .

Die partye in die land probeer dus Die om in verskillende rigtings te trek Die maar daar word gesoek na beter wyses om dieseIfde elnddoeI, naamlik dit wat in die algemene voIksbeIang en bevorderIik vir die weIsyn van die volk is, te bereik.

Omdat aI die partye mik daarna om aan hierdle wense van die inwoners te voIdoen het die verskille tussen partyi so skraaI geword dat inwoners In die een verkieslng vir Party A stem en In die ander verkiesing weer vir Party B stem. In Namibie bIyk dit nie die geval te wees nie.

In Namibie word die standpunt van: "Ek sal nooit In my lewe'Vir daardie party stem nie," te veel aangehoor. 'n Kieser staan by sy party ongeag w~t gebeur en dit sal lank neem, wil dit op die oomblik voorkom, voor die besef In die land sal kom dat part ye verruObaar is.

Hierdie bIaam vir die deokwyse van kiesers kan in die meeste gevalle nie voor hul deur geI~ word nie.

Indien aI die part ye werkIik die kieser In ag geneem het en die dingewou doen wat die kieser wO h~ en niewat hulle wO he nie, sou daar nie so 'n groot verskil tussen die reger­ende party en die opposisiepartye bestaan het nie.

Politieke part ye is per slot van rekening daar om die as­pirasies van hullede uit te leef en nie die van die leiers nie.

Daarom behoort die politieke onrypheid van landsin­woners vierkantvoor die deur van die baie politieke oppor­tuniste en misleiers geli te word.

Daar is so baie opportuniste en soveeI partye clat ni­emand uit die vuis sal kan si hoeveel part ye . op enige gegewe oomblik in die land bestaan nie. Hierdie situasie word nog verder vererger deur die magdom van hoofmanne en kapteins wat onderIangs besig is met kIein onderlangse "oorloggies" wat nooit end kry nie en ook nooit heeltemal

--¥erstaan kan word nie. 'n Oormatige toutrekkery na alie kante maak net die inwoners deurmekaar en dra niks by tot die vorming van een yolk nie. Die mikpunt van nasiebou sal nie bereik word as elke mannetjie wat vyftig stemme agter sy rug het opstaan en op dieselfde vIak wil gesels m.et die groter partye in die land nie. Namibie is 'n land wat nie 'n baie lang politieke tradisie het waarin die inwoners ingelig is oor wat in die politieke w~reld gebeur nie. In baie gevalle is die inwoners oorgelaat aan dit wat die politieke le~er op die verhoog se. Die inwoner het geen besefvan wat sy regte werklik is en watter nie sy regte is nie. Hierdie onkunde van die pubUek het dit vir poUtieke leiers in die verlede moont­lik gemaak om met moord weg te kom en dit sal nog steeds die situasie wees indlen daar geen verandering kom nie.

Politieke Ieiers wat voortgaan om inwoners te mislei moet aan die man gebring word. Leiers wat doelbewus dinge doen wat tot die nadeel van die yolk is vir hul eie politieke gewin moet in toom gehou word met die middele tot die beskikking van die staat sowel as die gemeenskap.

In Namlbie ervaar ons nog steeds die situasie waarin elke party in sy eie rigting trek en prob~r om die kieset te oortuig om oor te kom na sy denkwyse.

Elke clag word daar gehoor van die eelJ of ander obskure politieke partytjie wat ''wie weet w~rvandaan" kom en waarvan selfs die mees ingeligte persone nie weetwaarvoor hul staan, wie hulleiers is en hoeveel steun hulle geniet nie, wat ongevraagd In gesprekke tussen dit part ye met steun kom inmeng en ook huI ding wil se.

Die parlement sal ernstig daaraan moet dink om 'n real­istiese standaard waaraan politieke partye bewys moet lewer hul die steun het, neer te le • anders sal die skrywer hiervan ook sy party registreer en namens sy party tot die gesprek toetree.

Kontrakteurs wurg privaatkopers

DIE Munisipaliteit is byna onmagtig om probleme wat voornemende huiseienaars met die bekoming van erwe in Katutura en Khomasdal ondervind op te los indien die publiek hulle Die behulpsaam is Die. Daar is op die oomblik baie min maniere waarop probeer kan word om kontrakteurs te verhoed om erwe te koop wat vir die mindergegoedes bestem is, se Willie Kauaria, Skakelbeampte van die MunisipaIiteit. Kauaria bet geantwoord op 'n:vraag of dit Die mOontlik is vir die munisipaliteit om· rnindergegoedes te beskenn deur strenger maatreels oor erwe in te stel Die, gesien in die lig van die voorval waar ongeveer driebonderd per­sone eergister gestoei het vir vyf-en-tagtig erwe en die verkoop gekanseleer moes word. Kontrakteurs maak gebruik van skuiwergate wat in die wetsteIseI bestaan om erwe te bekom en terselfdertyd stet bulIe bulself aan risikos bloot omdat persone nadat bulledie erwe in bul eie name met die geld van die kontrakteur gekoop bet kan weier om die erwe oor te gee. Die eDigste reeling wat die muDisipaliteit kan gebruik

. om kontrakteurs te verboed om met die gewone man mee te ding is om te bepaal dat 'n erf wat gekoop is Die berverkoop kan word son­der om dit te vetbeter of in Ieketaal 'n buis daarop te bou Die. 'n Regsverteenwoordiger van 'n pIaaslike finna wat baie met bierdie transaksies te doen het se egter dit ·is baie maldik vir kontrakteurs om rondom bierdie bepal­ing tekom.

boo al is dit met die kon­trakteur se geld gekoop. Kauaria van die Munisipal­iteit sa die munisjpa1iteit kan Die bewus raak van bierdie ongerymdhede indienbul1e Die daaroor in kennis gestel word Die en doen 'n publiek om eDige ongerymdbede te rapporteer sodat ondersoek

. ingestel kan word.

ERICH BOOIS

Oor die verkoop van die erwe wat afgelas moes word omdat daar 'n stoeiery in die tou voor die munisipal­iteit ontstaan het, se Kauaria,

. advertensies sal weerinkoer-ante geplaas word om bek­end te maak wanneer dit verlcoop sal word. Hierdie keer sal die' inunisipaliteit deeglikk9ntro1ehotioordie -bele proses om te voorkom datdie voorval vanDinsdag herbaal word." Rondom die beskikbaarbeid van erwe en waarom Die meer verkoop word Die se

by die muDisipaliteit on­dervind probIeme om meer grond van omliggende plase aan te koop om vir residen­siele doeleindes te gebruik. 'n ADder kenner meen.daar

-bestaan ook '0 tekort aan­erwe omdat die munisipal­iteit Die 09r genoeg fondse beskik om al die erwe van

. dienste te voorsien Die. Nadat e:.en .. uitb~iding van dienste soos riool en water vOorsien' is' moet die muni­sipaliteit weer.lank wag voor die geld wat daarvoor ge­bruik is terugbetaal is.

Al wat buI doen is om self die buise op te rig om aan die bepaling van die muDi­sipaliteit te voldoen. Die buis word clan vanaf die private koper op die naam van die maatskappy oorgedra waama die maatskappy die buis weer kan verkoop. Die muDisipaliteit kan dus niks maak: aan die kontrakteur Die.

Andrea Stelzer, voormalige Mej. Suid-Mrika en bekende skoonheid wat binnekort 'n kursos vir modelle in Windhoek sal aanbied.

Die regsverteenwoordiger bet ook bygevoeg dat kon­trakteurs 'n groot risiko loop wanneer bulle persone vra om tou te staan en vir bulle die erwe te koop. Dit is maar net 'n manier

waarop bulle misbruik maak van werldose en ongeletterde persone om groot winste te maak op die erwe wat gekoop word.

It was a scoreline that flat­tered the English team.

In 23 European cup games being staged on Wednesday, Red Star Belgrade continued its defense of the Champions Cup with a 3-1 first leg triumph over Cypriot team Apollon Limassol, which upset Univer­sitatae Craiova in the first round.

Olympique Marseille, the team Red Star beat in last sea­son 's final, missed a penalty and saw a 3-0 lead cutto 3-2 by Czechoslovakia's Sparta Pra­gue.

England's Onis Waddle fired the Frwch team ahead and Jean­Pierre Papin scored twice but Papin had a first half spot kick saved. Marseille paid the pen­alty in another sense as Sparta hit back with late goals from the spot by Petr V rabec and Roman Kukleta.

By contrast Dutch champion PSV Eindhoven and Belgian rival Anderlecht failed to pro­duce a first leg goal in a 0-0 tie.

Italian , titlist Sampdoria tumbled 2-1 to Honved in Budapest but will try to re­verse that result-at home.

Bayem struggling to find form BAYERN Munich, once feared as the virtuaUy invin­cible powerhouse of German soccer, has become a self­proclaimed "laughing sto~k" of the league. The richest, the most famous and the most successful of German soccer clubs, the pride of Bavaria is struggling near the bottom of the Bundesliga. After a third of the season, Bayern is 14th in the 2O-team league and also has been eliminated from the German Cup. The latest blow came on Tu~day when Bayern was defeated 6-2 by the unheralded BK 1903 Copen­hagen in the UEFA Cup, probably blowing its chances of finally winning a European trophy after a lS-year drought. ' Now the club with the record 11 German league titles is calling on its former stars to help it overcome the slump. Franz Beckenbauer and Karl-Heinz Rummenigge will take posts on Bayern's management board.

Sick Seve wins Volvo Masters SEVE Ballesteros climbed out of his sickbed to win 170 000 dollars for clinching the European number one title at the Volvo Masters golf championship yesterday -then went straight back to bed again. The Spaniard needed only one drive to clinth the siX­figure sum due to him under a bonus system for heading the money list for the year - a prize he would have been ineligible for had he not played here. The money took his winnings for the year in Europe to 883 327 doUars and he can add up to 100 000 pounds more if he wins the tournament. But his opening one-over-par 72 left him five shots adrift of the elite 54-man field still on the course. The event, which officially ends the European Tour for the year, brings together the players from the top half of the money list. BaUesteros was bothered by the cold during his victori­ous romp through the world match play championship at Wentworth last week and it has worsened in wet and cool conditions here.

SA cricket welcomed to world game

NEW Zealand's cricket establishement yesterday wel­comed South Africa's return to the international scene, but the country's leading anti-apartheid group said it could still mount protests when the Springboks play in the World Cup here early next year. A special meeting of the International Cricket Council in Sharaj on Wednesday unanimously agreed to allow the South Africans to participate in the competition to be i:tosted by New Zealand and Australia in February and March. However John MiDto, a spokesperson for Hart (halt all racist tours), said it was not all rosy with cricket in some areas of South Africa and they would be keeping a close eye on developments there. "We're accepting the decision because the African National Congress are being very positive that cricket is a non-racial sports body," he said. But we are sceptical about there being genuine opportunities for blacks to play at the highest levels."

Coetzer v. Hollyfield for world title?

IT could be Pierre Coetzer against Evander Holyfield for the world heavyweight boxing title at the end of February· and the man who says so is US promoter Dan Duva, who controls the affairs of Holyfield. In a faxed message to South African promoter Rodney Berman yesterday, Duva said everything now pointed towards the planned Holyfield-Mike Tyson bout falling away; and that Coetzer would be given "first possibil-ity" at the title." - -' , ' Tyson, currently facing-a rape case iD late January, was forced~o ~tbdrew.rrom aNovem~r 8 date with Holy­field because, of~njury. Now, sai~: Duva, the prospects of the match going on were receding "y the day. Instead, Coetzer's easy three-round win against Dan Murphy last Saturday has elevated the SA into a role of prominence among US viewers and his prospects of a world title dlance- bave i ... ,n ..

Sampdoria are living on memories says capt

LONDON: Italian champions Sampdoria, living on the memories of last season's glory, need to reverse their run of defeats at neighbours Genoa if they are to salvage their season and save their coach.

Defeat in Sunday's local derby would not only seriously jeopardise Sampdoria's pros­pects of retaining their title but would also undermine the position of Yugoslav coach VUjadin Boskov.

Sampdoria have lost their last two league games against Parma and Atalanta and were beaten 2-1 away by Honved Budapest in a European Cup tie on Wednesday.

Newspaper reports this week have suggested that Sampdoria president Paolo Mantovani has already earmarked Swede Nils Liedholm, fonner AS Roma and AC Milan coach. as a possible immediate successor to Boskov.

But after Wednesday' s de­feat, Sampdoria captain Roberto Mancini exonerated his coach.

saying: "The blame for these de­

feats lies with all of us players, all 17 of us (squad members).

"The sad truth about us at the moment is that we are liv­ing on our memories (of last season)."

Genoa; in contrast, contin­ued their positive start to the season with an impressive 3-1 UEFA Cup win over Dinamo Bucharest in Genoa on Wed­nesday.

Joint league leaders AC Milan and Juventus, absent from European competitition this season, both have relatively easy tasks on Sunday. Juven­tus host CIeJlIOIle9c while Milan travel to Bari. Milan will be without injured winger Alber­igo Evani but otherwise will field a full strength side.

Mark Carter recalled to New Zealand team

DUBLIN: New Zealand have recalled flanker Mark Carter and bracketed fullbacks Terry Wright and Kieran Crowley for Sunday's rugby union World Cup semifi­nal against Australia.

With first choice openside flanker Michael Jones unavailable for religious reasons, New Zealand have reverted to Carter in place of Paul Henderson who played in the quarter-final against Canada.

Wright, who is recovering from a hamstring injury, missed the Canada match. He is bracketed with replacement fullback Kieran Crowley, who missed selection in the original team.

John Tiinu, who played at fullback against Canada, returns to the left-wing in place of Va' aiga Thigamala.

New Zealand: Terry Wright or Kieran Crowley; John Kirwan. Craig Irines, Bemie McCahill, John Timu; Grant Fox, Graeme Bachop; Zinzan Brooke, Made Carter, Alan Whetton, Gary Whetton· (captain), !an Jones, Richard Loe, Sean Fitzpatrick, Steve McDowell. - Reuter.

The club confirmed on Wednesday that they intend to lease their fow1h foreign player, Croat Zvonimir Boban, to Bari for the rest of this season.

Spanish league leaders Atlet­ico Madrid and champions Barcelona, both buoyed by European triumphs on Wed­nesday, clash on Saturday in Barcelona's Camp Nou sta­dium.

Atletico, who beat Manch­ester United 3-0 in the Cup Winners' Cup, are looking for their seventh successive league victory of the season and have seldom been in better fono.

Barcelona, with only five points from six league games, fear their championship hopes could be effectively extin­guished even at this stage of this season if they lose again.

Their 2-0 European Cup win over Genn.any' s Kaiserslautem will have done much to restore confidence. They also have

behind them a 1-0 away win over Atletico in last week's Spanish Supercup first leg.

Real Madrid, 3-1 away win­ners over Utrecht in the UEFA Cup, face Logrones at home and could regain top spot in the league if Atletico slip.

They will be without Yugo­slav midfielder Robert Prosi­necki who suffered a recur­rence of aleg injury in Utrecht. He will be out of action for a month.

Dutch champions PSV Eind­bovcnhave lost Bmzilian st:rikcr Romarlo again just as he was returning to his prolific goalscoring fono.

Romarlo misses Sunday's visit to Willem IT Tilburg after leaving the field in the first half of PSV's goalless Euro­pean Cup draw against Bel­gian champions ADierlecht wilh a bruised left ankle. It will be in plaster until Monday. -Reuter.

the world champions. ' , Campese, though. is tired of

the grind of modem represen­tative rugby, particularly the demands of the New South Wales Rugby Union with whom he has a love-hate relation­ship.

He prefers to play club rugby in Milan duiing the European winter, but is required to re­turn to Sydney for the Austra­lian season to fulfill the local union's eligibility criteria.

"It's my ninth straight sea­son. It would,be great to have a rest," he said. "B1..t if we don't win the Wor!:l Cup, I might give it until next Mayor June, decide I miss it too much and go home to play again. I'll just take it as it comes.

"Playing the All Blacks two or three times every year gets , to you after a bit. I've been around the world twice and played the Blacks around 20 time. What else can you do?"

His colleagues may be occa­sionally irritated by Campese' s speak-first, think-later tenden- ' cies but know his value to the side remains immense.

He scored five tries in his first four World Cup games, including two which tipped the balance in the 19-18 win over Ireland last Sunday.

In that match he picked up an ankle injury, originally feared to be a stress fracture but fi­nally diagnosed by four spe­cialists as an "overuse prob­lem".

, 'They ' said it was more a case of tiredness in the joints and suggested he didn't train so hard," said coach Bob Dwyer this week.

"I've been saying that to him for ages but even when we get a couple of quieter days he's out doing extra work.

"He' s hyperactive on the pitch so I guess it's fine if he's hyperactive off it. "

Campese, 29 earlier this week, has been responsible for some of the game's great moments since making his international debut in 1982.

He equalled the Australian record of four tries in a match against the American Eagles at the Sydney Cricket Ground in 1983 and has to his credit one of the best tries ever seen at Cardiff Anns Park while playing for the Barbarians.

He has been dropped only once - for the first test against France last year - and is his country' 8 most-capped player.

Many of his world record 45 international tries have been scored in front of his home crowds but Campese is happi­est on foreign fields.

"I play better overseas be­cause I know people out there are enjoying my rugby and they understand what I'm trying to do.

" Even if you fail , they're not ' going to bag you in the paper tm next morning for doing something wrong.

, 'When things don' t work at home, people always seem to blame one person and I seem to be the person they blame a lot." '

So can Campese weave his magic when it matters to lead his Wallabies to rugby union's holy grail7

"It's good forus to be out of Australia, " he replied. "Over there we have a lot of hassles with wives and girlfriends, your friends come in and have a drink with you, you've got other commitments ...

"Here we're all together, having a good time. We know what we're here for."

David Campese could be playing his own final

DUBLIN: The world of rugby union, recently deprived of France's Serg~ Blanco, may fuid itself waving goo­dbye to a second genius within the next 10 days.

Depenc1in8 on Australia's fate in their W orId Cup semifinal against New Zealand on Sun­day, David Campese could be playing his last game in a Wallaby jersey at either Car­diff Arms Park or Twicken-' ham next week.

After nine yel\1'S of eibiIa­rating tries, outrageous' side.­steps and outspoken opinions,

Campese has said he will step into touch for the final time if his country wins the World Cup.

Even if they fail, he has left his options open. At best he will take a break away from test rugby; at worst, he will be gone ,for good.

As With Blanco' s retirement, , it -will be an occasion of genu-

ine sadness for thosc who like their sport laced with a little colour and unpredictability.

Campese will be winning his 63rd international cap against the All Blacks in Dublin and making his 99th Wallaby ap­pearance.

What would givc the supreme winger most satisfaction is to reachhis century by playing in the Wo~ld Cup final at Twick~ enhamonSaturday week. Uke an outstanding actor, he can­'notresist the biggest stage of

Metropolitan can provide more shocks

I WAS right. Last Friday I predicted upsets in the offing for Premier League teams pitted against opponents from the lower division in the opening rounds of the Metropolitan Champion of Champions cup competi­tion. My words were still fresh in the minds of local soccer fans when Golden Bees bowed out 4-0 to southern first division outfit Doleriet Try Again the next day. Ramblers, the team that has surprised friend and foe by ending a highly successful season in the third spot, were the next to follow when they succumbed 2-1 to Namib Woestyn. Windhoek soccer fans were still discussing the early exit of Ramblers and Golden Bees when yet another Pre­mier League giant, Sorento Bucks, followed suit at the hands of Explorer XI. Then came Sunday and everyone expected more sur­prises. However Namib Woestyn and Explorer XI found the Premier League too much to handle but Try Again continued their giant killing form. This time it was a different story. The Keetmanshoop side sustained an early assault from the rampant BS Tigers to level up scores befot~ they-went on to oust the Ingweinyama on penalties. ~ Tomorrow the little giant killers from the south will be returning with one thing on their minds, to continue where they left otT last weekend. So don't be surprised if defending champion Nashua Black Africa, last year's runners-up Pepsi African Stars, former holders Sarusas Orlando Pirates or Prime Press Liverpool win the championship this season.

Buy your tickets early I would also like to advise fans to buy their tickets for the . matches early in order to avoid unnecessary queues at the entrances. People are always complaining to me that the NF A should open additional entrances at the Katutura Sta­dium but why not .listen to the call of the federation and buy tickets earlier. The fans themselves are to blame in some cases, espe-

"dally when they arrive a few minutes before the start of the match (without tickets) instead ,of coming earlier as the gates are a1~ays opened hours before the start. SowJiy not buy 'your tickets earlier at the weD known business outlets (in Katutura and Khomasdal), come earlier to the stadium and avoid the inconvenience of the long queues. The office of the NF A has said it will announce the business outlets where tickets can be bought on NBC Radio. And last but not least, the restrained and sportsmanlike behaviour of the fans last weekend cannot pass unno­ticed. The fans were simply fantastic and let the referees and

, linesmen get on wi_th, their jobs. Perhaps not allowing people with bottles and weapons into the stadiums is the rigbt remedy for ~rowd violence .

THE Namibia Rugby Un· ion, in close co· operation with the Namibia National Sports Council, is rurrently presenting a three day rugby course at Okakarara which started on Wednes· day and will finish today.

Director of the Sports Coun­cil Wim Lotter is the co-ordi­nator of the course.

According to the Rugby Union, funds for the project are being supplied by Swabou with additional assistance from the Namib Mills Cross Coun­try project of the Sports Coun­cil.

Eden Meyer, Danie van der Merwe and Jaco Coetzee, three well-known Namibian rugby players are conducting !he basic course. It will be a test run for the three national stars who will also be presenting !he same course in Grootfontein for the Nanubian Defence Force (NDF) next week.

Their services were made available by the NDF and this is greatly appreciated by the rugby community.

According to LOtter, 50 people are taking part in the course which covers the basic skills, early history and the elementary rules and theory of the game. "The elementary rules, ' , said LOtter, •• are being explained by means of videos and practical exercises."

Lotter said although rugby was unknown in the area a lot of entlrusiasm was being shOwn by the participants.

"The attendance is very good

DIRECTOR of the Na· mibia National Sports Council, Wim Lotter, will finish a rugby course at Ok8karara today. The course is being sponsored by Swabou and the Namib Mills Cross Country proj· ect of the Sports Council.

and my three assistants are doing wonders. And with the interest shown by the candidates, rugby can becQme a force in.the area," the Director said.

The same courses will also ~ presented later this year or' el!l'ly next year in Owambo, Caprivi, Kavango and Keet­manshoop •. The courses are being conducted to expose the game to as many people as possible and to create interest in rugby in areas where it is unknown.

The Rugby Union feels strongly that every Namibian must be given the opportunity to get to know the game and to decide iflie is interested in the sport.

Manchester need a win over Wednesday LONDON: Wounded by its first defeat of the season, Manchester United returns from European Cupwin· ners Cup action in Spain to focus on its bid to win English soccer's league title for the first time in 25 years.

After returning to the top of the Scottish premier division, champion Glasgow Rangers plans to stay there by beating promoted Falkirk at home . .

Hearts, which surrendered the leadership by losing at

Rangers last week, goes to sixth place Motherwell.

The Scottish program also includes the League Cup final at Hampden Park, Glasgow, between Hibemian and Dun­fermline. - Sapa-AP. Unbeaten domestically in 12

league games and holding a two point lead atop the stand­ings, United travels on Satur­day to fifth placed Sheffield Wednesday, which has won five of its six home games.

Manager Alex Ferguson will want to get the 3-0 Cupwin­ners Cup defeat by Atletico Madrid out of the team's thoughts when they go out to face Wednesday.

But it was particularly pain­ful because two of Atletico's goals came in the last three minutes. In the league, United has conceded only four goals in 12 games.

The other irony would be that United, which won the Cupwinners trophy by beating Barcelona in last season's fi­nal, stands to surrender it by losing to another Spanish club.

Returning to domestic ac­tion, United needs to get back on the victory trail after tied games with LiveIpool and champion Arsenal.

It faces a Wednesday team that has the best goalscoring record at home - 16 in six games - and a stIilreforce spear­headed by English intemational David Hirst.

The Sheffield team has for-

and respected for their cup expertise and as their coach Eric Muinjo warned earlier this week, Stars are in for a really tough battle.

Said Muinjo: "There is no doubt that we are a better team then Stars when it comes to cup competition.

They can beat anyone else . but they are not going to stand in our way.

"Butmakeno mistake, they have a very good side but our goal is to win the Metropolitan Cup this season and the play­ers have promised to go all out to make that dream a reality. ' ,

Someone very close to Stars told the Namibian Sport dur­ing a telephone interview yes­terday that Stars were simply too good for Pirates at the moment.

"The overall performance of the players is excellent and the forwards are looking more s1uup then a few weeks ago and it's going to take a really good side to penetrate our defense," the man, who pre­fers to stay anonymous, said.

Another humdinger is on the cards for local fans and fire­wolks are forecast fortbe SKW Field.

• Meanwhile the NFA has asked soccer fans to buy tick· ets early and to come early for the enounter to avoid cHsappointment Tickets will be avalible from Meroro

. Stores, Hakahana Service Station and Oshakati Serv· ice in Katutura as well as the NFA's office.

Francis as its player-manager and the striker ha. a go-for­goals attitude to the game.

Second place Leeds, which halved United's points lead by winning 4-2 at Notts County last week, has the chance to get even even closer by beating promoted Oldham at home.

Third place Manchester City hosts last place Sheffield United and champion Arsenal, which

, is fourth, can put more pres­sure on the leader by beating promoted Notts CoImty at h>me.

Liverpool, which has won the title six times and fnshed runner up the other four during the last decade, is tenth in the 22-team standings.

Liverpool hopes to repair the damage to its confidence by beating sixth-place Coventry at home.

After its 3-1 Cupwinners Cup triumph over FC Porto on Wednesday, Tottenham trav­els to West Ham and, in an­other all-London clash, Cllelsea visits Crystal Palace.

In other division one games, Wunb1edongoes to Aston Villa, Norwich hosts Luton, Southampton visits Nottingham Forest and Queens Park Rang­ers welcomes Everton.

HEADS will roD when two of the country's most re· spected teams, Pepsi African Stars and Sarusas Orlando Pirates, clash in a Metropolitan Cup quartertinal out· -ing at the SKW Field at WhOO tonight

The frightening pace of Pat­rick '16v' Basson could cause problems for the slow Pirates defence which struggled to k=p the Nampol forwards at bay in last Sunday's encounter.

On paper Stars have built a team capable of tearing Pirates apart but the cup record of the Sea Robbers is enough to give any side sleepless nights.

The Pepsi Boys proved dur­ing a friendly match played a fortnight ago, they are in a different class from Pirates but poor finishing saw them miss­ing many easy chances.

Stars are clearly a different side now having scored nine goals in two cup matches last weekend and their defence is as solid as a rock.

But it would be foolish of Stars to take their opponents too lightly, as Pirates have improved drastically and their fine Conn of last weekend could not have come at a better time.

HoWever, their defeu:e which is being kept in one piece by the injury-prone Salathiel 'Stimela'Ndjao is the one area that looks a little shaky.
