Bringing Africa Soutn VOl.2 NO.4:lU

IT'S FRAUD SAYSFASSIE but NEe claims the grou'p failed to play according to a contr.act

SO UTH African singing star Brenda Fassie and her en-tourage left Windhoek last night despite bad feelings and an unresolved contract dispute between Brenda Fassie Management and the local production company, Namibia Entertainment Organization.

L"lte yesterday aftenlooit, 1he Namibian learned' that Fassie was dissatisfied wi},hpayment received from Namibia Enter-tairunent Organisation. Accord-ing to her manager, Peter Mbolekwa, the management group failed to pay according to contract. Mbolekwa said the mallagement group complained because Fassie performed for less than four hours at each venue. He yrcduced a facsim-ile of a contract, dated Sep-tember 16, with the Namibia Entertainment Organization that did not stipulate any du'ration of the concerts.

When Heinrich Schroeder, director of Namibia Entertain-ment Organization, was asked by The Namibian about the char-ges, he denied them com-pletely and produced a .coo-tract that specifically stipulated a four-hour concert time. Along with the contract he produced a signed facsimile copy, dated September 17, that again re-quired four hours of music. Since Fassic did not perform the full time, said Schroeder, the company deducted from her fees a proportional amount. Schroeder said that was com-pany policy . .

ANDREW PERRIN

The conflict got more bitter as Mbolekwa accused Namibia Entertainment Organization of being "bad organizers". The organizers claimed "He [Mbolekwa] lied. He's a liar. "

Even though most concertgo-ers intelviewed by The Na-mibian enjoyed the show and many said it was the best Fa~sie had done in Namibia, each side in the dispute accused the other of botching the job.

....... LOCAL Government and Housing Minister Dr Libertine Amathila presents house keys to one of the first Ombili house tennants.

Ombili residents exchange tents for just-built homes

THE fwst 25 houses built for former squatters at Okw"yangava were handed to their new tennantsby Minister of Local Govern-ment and Housing Liber-tine Amathila on Friday.

The ceremony at Okuryan-gava's Ombili township was also attended by representa-tives· of the French aid organ-isation CRIAA, which runs the housing scheme, the French Government which donated R200 000 to the project, the Windhoek Municipality and Nasboukor. Minister Amath-ila gave keys to the occupants of the first 25 core-houses, which stand out like pyramids amid the dozens of tents which characterise the site. She said she was pleased to see some of the houses go to people she had earlier helped move from squats at Katutura's grave-yards and rubbish dumps.

The flIst group of squatters was brought to Okuryangava in August last year and the first brick of the housing scheme,

JOSEPH MOTINGA

which plans to build a grand total of 300 houses, was laid on April 18th.

Amathila appealed to the Municipality to prevent new, unauthorized squatters from setting up home next to those who received houses.

Even in tradition\ll societies people were not allowed to anive unannounced and establish themselves on plots without permission from the chief, she added. Those who had received the new houses had paid de-posits of Rloo and R120, Amathila said. From now on, occupants would pay a monthly fee of R 70. She said the lease period would stretch until the end of next January and that those opting to buy their houses would be able to do so after that date. Priority of purchase would go to occupants.

Anyone neglecting to pay monthly dues to the munici-pality without valid reason would be evicted, warned

Amathilli. The Minister then presented

eachofthe 25 new·lessees with a tree to plant, reminding them that the area's motto was: "Keep Ombili clean and green. ' ,

CRIAA Deputy Represen-tative, A Mekki, explained that the total amount ofR70 a month was made up of Rll for the plot, R30 for the house plus municipal fees. Mekki said-people who intended to buy the houses together with the plot would be given 25 years to complete repayments. More houses would be handed over as they have been finished, he said.

TIle core-houses are designed to allow occupants to extend them or divide them up inside. Inside space is the equivilent of two normal size rooms.

Most houses have bathrooms and toilets inside. But accord-ing to one construction worker who had worked on the site, some people prefer to have their baths and toilets outside, so some a number had been built accordingly.

Mobuto agrees to form a new govt

KINSHASA: President Mobutu Sese Seko, under pressure to institute de-mocracy after bloody riots prompted foreign military intervention, was to meet opposition leaders yester-day to select ministers for a new government.

Mobutu, 66, strongman of th.i~ sprawling African country for 26 years, agreed with op-position leaders after five hours of talks Saturday to fonn a coalition government of na-tional crisis.

The opposition demanded tru;t a dusk-to-dawn curfew be lifted by yesterday night. A national conference on demo-cratic refonns that broke up earlier this month will reco.n-

vene tomorrow. The new prime minister is

expected to be Etienne Tshise-kedi, 58, leader of the Union for Democracy and Social Progress.

An interior minister before Mobutu seized power in a military coup in 1965, Tshise-kedi said he would accept the job. He refused it when Mobutu offered him the post in July, saying it held no power.

State-run radio reported provisional figures that 117 people died and 156 were in-jured in the unrest last week, which ended as French and Belgian paratroops intervened to protect foreign nationals.

Relief agencies have con-firnled 60 deaths in Kinshasa, but say the total could be three

times higher and that at least 1 750 were injured. A French soldier is the only foreigner confirned killed.

French Ambassador Henri Rethore, who has met Mobutu frequently in recent days, said on Saturday that Fmnce wanted "a transition toward a better system of government, and a democratic system."

Rethore said that 800 French paratroopers might remain in Zaire for another 15 days, even if their ostensible mission of evacuating foreign nationals is completed. France and Bel-gium have deployed 1 750 troops in Zaire. They are guard-ing key points of Kinshasa and have helped almost 8 000 peq>le leave the capital and provin-cial cities. - Sapa-AP.

BELGRADE: Fighting flared again yesterday in parts of battle-scarred Croatia, and the federal army surrendered more barracks besieged by militias of the breakaway republic.

The army's recent pullouts from barracks in regions of Croatia where few Serbs live have given credence to theo-ries that it was seeking to stay only in areas with a strong Serb presence.

Increasing morale problems and mass desertions besetting the army as the Croatian canl-paign drags on may have con-tributed to a possible decision by the generals to regroup in parts of Croatia where they have the support of the ethnic Serbs.

In other developments, Stipe Mesic, the head of Yugosla-via's collcctiv~ presidency, said after consultations in New York with Javier Perez de Cuellar that the UN secretary general had offered to negotiate a peace-ful end to the crisis.

.majority expected to opt for sovereignty.

Tensions were high in Kosovo, another potential hot spot of ethnic violence, where at least 100 people have died over the past two years in clashes with Serbian police. But no major incidents were reported yesterday after the arrests on

Saturday of dozens of plebi-scite organizers and partici-pants.

In Croatia, at least five people were reported killed in fight-ing overnight and early yester-day, as sporadic violence con-tinued despite a cease-fire signed last week by Croatian and army leaders. - Sapa-AP.

A referendum on the inde-pendence of Kosovo province was reported near over, with nearly all of the Serb-ruled territory's ethnic Albanian

US expects Soviet arms ~uts WASHINGTON: US officials said yesterday the Soviet and Russian responses to Presid.ent George Bush's announcement of massive nuclear arms cuts was enthu-siastic, despite Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev's tepid public remarks.

Both Defence Secretary Richard Cheney and National Security Adviser Brent Scowcroft;interviewed on US televison, described Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev and Russian President Boris Yeltsin as strongly supportive of Bush's disarmament plan.

They also said they expected

reciprocal cuts. The cuts announced by Bush

on Friday include destruction of all US ground-launched tactical nuclear missiles and the removal of nuclear cruise missiles from submarines and warships. Gorbachev's initial public response came in an interview on Saturday on So- '

viet television in 'which he said: "It is still premature to assess the whole scope of thes

INTE'RNATIONAL WRAP - UP , Allan Boesak elected to ANC

BELL VULE: Or Allan Boesak, controversial cleric and Executive Director of the Foundation for Peace and Justice, was elected Chainnan of the Western Cape Region of the ANC yesterday.

The election followed an inlpassioned plea by the ANC President, Nelson Mandela, on Saturday that the ANC should reflect in its regional executive the 54 per cent ethnic Coloured majority.

The fact that conference, dominated by black delegates, chose Or Boesak as ChairIllan is regarded as a pragnlatic move which will offs.:t some of the disadvantages the ANC has faced in recruit; ng membership from the Cape's Coloured communities.

Iraq agrees to flights MANAMA, Ballrain: Iraq has removed the last obstacle preventing UN experts from using their helicopters on inspection flights, UN officials said yesterday.

Alastair Livingston, field operations chief for the UN commission in charge of ~crapping Iraq's weapons of mass destruction, said Iraq had given UN officials pernussion to use its al-Rasheed airfield in Baghdad as a helicopter base.

Douglas Englund, head ofthe 21-member ballistic team, said on Saturday they were delaying the start of their mission to supervise destruction of Scud missile sites by two days to give tinle for the lingering row to be settled.

Iraq's objections to the use of UN helicopters sparked an international row and threats of renewed military action by the United· States to force Iraqi compliance.

Banda rules out democracy MZUZU, Malawi: Malawi president Kamuzu Banda has ruled out multi-party democracy in rus country, saying his 27-year rule had checked tribal rivarlies, Zimbabwean news agency Ziana reported yesterday.

Closing a week-long convention of his ruling Malawi Congress Party, Banda said his country's brand of democracy should be consolidated. '

In the past few months Banda has freed scores of political prisoners, most held without trial. Reports say the Malawi leader has been under pressure from aid donors to improve his human rights record.

Exiled opposition movements recently fonned an alliance and began stepping up calls for the introduction of a multi-party system.

Neo-Nazi attacks on aliens BONN: Neo-Nazis attacked at least seven homes for immigrants across Gennany as a wave of racist assaults went into its third week, police said yesterday.

Leftist demonstrators protesting against the upsurge inneo-Nazi violence clashed with police in the east Gennan town of Hoyerswerda, where a refugee centre was evacuated last Monday after a week-long siege by right-wing gangs.

Gennan President Richard von Weizsaecker announced a visit this week to a refugee centre, the fust such step by a Bonn politician. since the Hoyerswerda riots against foreigners.

Attacks on refugee housing in both halves of united Gennany have come almost nightly since the Hoyerswerda unrest and a September 19 fire, believed to be arson, that killed an African man in a Saarland hostel. .

Mother of all rock concerts MOSCOW: About 400 000 people jammed an airfield onSaturday to see AC-DC, the Black Crowes and Metallica play at the Soviet Union's biggest Western rock concert, touted as a gift to Russian youth for their resistance to last month's coup.

Scattered skinnishes occurred between bottle-throwing drunken youths and a huge concert security force of about 12 000 police, soldIers and security forces, but only minor injuries were reported.

Near the stage, where a crowd of youths danced wildly, two police columns stood in formation.

Charlie Chaplin's widow dies CORSIER-SUR-VEVEY, Switzerland: Lady Oona Chaplin, widow of the late Charlie Chaplin, die.d on Friday at her home. She was 66 and had reportedly been in poor health for some time.

Lady Oona was the daughter of the Irish-American playwright Eugene O'Niel and Chaplin's fourth wife. .

Together they had five daughters, including the 45-year-old film actress Geraldin Chaplin, and three sons.

She was 18 when she married Chaplin in 1947, over the strong objections of her ather, who later disowned her. Chaplin was then 54 years old.

Medellin assassin arrested NEW YORK: The top assassin of the Medellin drug cartel was arrested on a New York city streetcorner, thwarting a plot to kill a "very important target" - possibly a world leader attending the UN General Assembly - US drug agents said last week.

The capture of Dandeny Munoz-Mosquera, described by law enforcement officials as one of the world's top assassins, came as hundreds of international figures, including President George Bush, were in New York for the assembly session.

Munoz-Mosquera is suspected of killing 40 Colombian police officers, setting 12 car bombs, and masterminding the murder of Colombian presidential candidate Luis Carios Galan-Sarrniento in August 1989.

Savimbi ~back in Luanda LUANDA: Rebel leader

Jonas Savimbi returned to the capital yesterday for the first time since 'retreating to the bush 16 years ago to lead his guerrillas in a bloody civil war against Angola's leftist leaders.

"We're going to make Luanda the capital of all Angolans," Savimbi told a clamorous crowd of some 60 000 packed ' into downtown Independence Square.

Savimbi has returned to lead his Unita movement's political

campaign in the run up to elec-tions scheduled for next year.

The democratic vote was agreed by both sides May' 31 in ~ace accords that stop~d fighting in one of Africa's long-est and bloodiest conflicts.

"Savimbi has already won," chanted supporters who waved scarlet and green Unita flags along roads leading into the cily from Luanda's February 4 Air-port. In a sign of the new ~aceful situation, government offi-cials including city governor Kundi Paihama welcomed Savimbi at the airport.

The almosphere at the rally was relaxed. Ten Unita soldiers armed with machine-guns and others wi th pistols guarded Savimbi and olher Unita leaders. Luanda police were on hand 10 maintain order among th.:! crowd, but no incidents were reported. Savimbi was due to attend an outdoor concert head-lined by Angola's best-known singer Bonga late yesterday night. The rebel leader is due 10 leave Luanda temporarily Fri-day, for a tour that is scheduled to include an act. 7 meeting in Washington with President

opesand fears for Namibia's San DRIMIOPSIS San camp, Epako township at Gobabis, the San resettlement programme at Baraka and what remains of Tsumke's 'locations' are very different in character, but help to build a general picture of the

present-day situation of Namibia's 'Bush-men'. Some give rise to hope, others evoke despair; but they all have their roots in the same sad story of a fragile culture pushed

to the edge by the ignorance and manipula-tion of others. Last week, The Namibian visited a number of communities in the area. Detailed reports will appear in this

week's editions.

An Open Letter

to The Namibian OVER the past few months, -considernble coverage has been devoted to either myself or projects with which I am asso-ciated, by your newspaper and others.

Unfortunately, it would appear that no matter how open and accomodating towards the press we are, reports and re-porters are detennined to cre-ate an 'aura' of suspicion or mystery by quoting snippets out of context or emphasising negative possibilities.

It appears tome thatthc only way to set the record straight and have myself quoted accu-rately is to resort to an open letter, which the reading pub-lic can receive and digest for their own edification.

Le.! me begin with an article in The Namibian of thc 26th. Your headline 'Refinery man denies links with Tricksters' could and possibly should have been 'Refinery man warns about Tricksters' or would this have been too'unshady'? During my conversations with your Mr Minney, I explained cate-gorically that I, with my asso-ciates inSwitzerland represent a Soviet factory for the scale of RM 20/20 and other matcrials. I also explained to him that the offer/proforma given to Mc Beukes had emanated from Germail who asked us to try and place their product. At no time did I ever say that the Soviet Union was _the only source. He chose, unfortunately, not to state so, but to suggest that there was a 'crack' in the information. Furthermore, during my conversation re the dangers of mercury, I never 'hinted' at the poisoning of the water supply, but said that due to the toxicity of mercury, ir- I responsible disposal could quite possibly have that effect as seen all over the world where heavy metal pollution is preva-lent. Mercury is an extremely toxic substance and should not be handled in an irresponsible manner. For this reason I felt it important to warn the public through your newspaper, only to fmd that for some reason the reporter chose to insinuatc some mysterious connotation. The facts are quite simple and quite open for public knowledge.

a) Realtime Namibia (Pty) Ltd, together with Futurcmics-Plannimex of Switzerland are authorised agents of a factory in the Soviet Union for the sale of RM 20(20 to legitimate end users in possession of legiti-mate end-user certificatcs.

b) Bogus mercury derivates and products purported to be 'red mercury' are being of- _ fered by numerous parties in Namibia and these materials are extremely toxic.

c) Germail of Australia re-quested us to place their pro-fornla invoice from a Chinese source and this was placed on their behalf with Mr Beukes.

d) Realtime Namibia is a Computer and CODUllOdity Trading Company with abso-lutely no connection with Enerkor Namibia (Pty) Ltd or NRC.

e) Ihold the caretaker mana-gerial post in Enerkor Namibia. I fail to see any sinister conno-

tation in the facts above. With regard to the Usakos

Refinery project, the facts are the following:

I, as the local representative of Enerkor (Pty) Ltd at the outset of the negotiations, together with Mr Atherstone, have been involved for many months in the negotiations with the Government and many other parties to establish the refin-ery. Any businessman reading this will be able to confirm that the establishment of an indus-try of this magnitude requires extensive research, time and expense and at the outset, great risk financially.

Until such time as the via-bility and feasability of th~ project has been ascertained, any expenditure which can be and was substantial, is at risk. The -risk was taken and has been proved to be worthwhile.

TIie viability, feasability and fmance for the project as:a 'private venture has been es-tablished and, notwithstan~g , the mystifyingly apparent obsession of some unknown sources to discredit me, the project, associated people and Government, the refinery de-velopment is on track and will be in production by the latter part of January 1993.

Enerkor Namibia (Pty) Ltd and the Namibian Refming Corporation (Pty) Ltd are in-dependent Narnibian registered companies for the express purpose of completing the development and latterly the ownership and operation of the refinery. Enerkor (Pty) Ltd no longer has interests nor func-tions in the project as their role was fulfilled with the signing of the memorandum of agree-ment with government which became the property of NRC 30 days after signature.

Let me reiterate the Govern-ment have been extremely cir-cumspect in their d~alings and specifications with regard to the project and have inno way, nor by guarantee nor funding, committed themselves to the project. Their role has been one of the monitoring of via-bility and standards in the granting of the licence to opernte. With regard to my own integrity and financial situation the following:

I, like many other promi-nent businessmen in Nanlibia have had my share of difficult times. I have made no secret of this and in fact took the finan-cial responsibilities of the limited companies involved upon myself as a director to ensure that the creditors were repaid. I am currently repay-ing these at the rate of R120 000 a year. Many of our most successful businesspeople have gone through this situation and swvived with their hroour intact and proceeded to their posi-tions today. I ask no other consideration nor quarter.

Let me conclude by saying that it would be foolish to ignore the obvious advantage to the country which successful for-eign investment can bring and how -discouraging unfounded negativity and scepticism can be for such investors.

The press is an essential and powerful tool in the develop-ment of the country and for this reason I remain, as I know my associates do, well disposed and accessible to any of your

members in the future .

NBe angered THE NBC takes strong ex-

ception to certain allegations made in your edition of Sep-tember 20 1991.

Not only does the article entitled'Info speaks out on M-Net controversy' contradict itself, but your source of infor-mation most certainly cannot be considered reliable.

Firstly, under no circum-stances did M-Net e,ver con-tact or negotiate any agree-ment with the NBC, concern-ing the filming ofthe Queen's visit, prior to their meeting with the Ministry of Informa-tion -and Broadcasting.

Therefore, it is quite self-explanatory that NBC could not have handled "the negotia-tions badly and dragged its feet".

In future, it would be appre-ciated if confirmation regard-ing allegations of this nature be brought to the attention of the NBC before publication. In this case, this was not done.

U E KA TJIVENA CONTROLLER: PUBLIC AFFAIRS NBC

Mishake's memo - I WOULD like to address myself

to the recent unfounded con-cern expressed by the DT A acting vice-president Mishake -Muyongo in his memo to the USA Vice President Dan Quayle during his short visit here that a one party state was imminent inNamibia. As usual the DTA had the guts to speak against the Narnibian Government with regard to our yQung democ-racy despite the fact that our very important visitor came specially to congratulate Presi-dent Sam Nujoma for demo-cratic rule in Namibia. In spite of that I would have liked Mc Quayle to describe Namibia as a model not only 'for other African countries' but also for the United States -the reason being that our democracy in Namibia would not allow us to send our armed forces beyond our oWn bor-ders, whereas they in the US can despatch with impunity, their servicemen and women to maim and condemn to death innocent lives in a distant

country. . Turning to the main purpose

of this letter, I first of all wish to be frank with Muyongo by assuring him that no effort would be spared to remind him of the injustices and atrocities committed by the interim government to their political opponents. We are aware of the fact that in the new dispen-sation of true democracy, those who worked against freedom which paved the way for de-mocracy, are the ones enjoy-ing the monopoly of criticism. But, during the DT A power they turned the opposition of the time, for instance Swapo leaders and supporters, into objects of torture, abductions, detention without power and violent killings. Our people for a long time perished at the hands ofDTA autocracy.

We know too well that the DTA did not fight for freedom and democracy in this country and as a matter of fact they eventUally look fooolish be-fore the_public eye as they were now reaping what they did not sow and also gathering where they did not winnow.

I am of course not naive about the fact that the opposi-tion ,and the ruling party ca,n neither speak in agreement, nor be united_ in one mind and in the same line of thougl:).t,-l?ut I mostly abhor he who looks at the strnw that is in his brother's eye, but does not observe the rafter that is in his own. It is therefore imaginatory that Muyongo aspires to be a cham-pion of democracy while he himself is existing as a slave of DTA autocracy. Can a rotten tree ever produce fine fruit?

Namibia is a true democ-racy. And that is true. Try to listen one day to NBC Herero Service and you will notice that the Namibian President is now and then treated as an object of hatred by Kuaimo Riruako. It is high time the DT A give thanks and praises to the government for its pol-icy of national reconciliation. Without reconciliation some-body should have already been silenced forever. Also the past and present irresponsible be- _ haviour of some of them would have ~xposed them to the un-forgiving anger of the poten-tial generation of vengeance.

In conclusion, I wish to tickle Muyongo 's fears by guaran-teeing him that a one-party state in Namibia is imminent, obvi-Qusly because all of the oppo-sition will inevitably pass away, but Swapo will not.

Privatisation flop blow to de Mello

RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil: The chflotic last-minute sus-pension of Brazil's first big privatisation could not have come at a worse time for Presi-dent Fernando Collor de Mello.

Collor, a keen supporter of privatisation. was forced to abort the auction of shares ID steel-maker Usiminas on Tuesday minutes before it was due to start, after demonstrators mobbed the Rio stock exchange and judges disputed the legal-ity of the sale.

As a result, political ana-lysts said, what was intended as a showpiece in Collor's campaign to modernise Brazil turned into a stark reIminder of his inability to get his way.

Only 18 months into his five-year term, Co~lor stands iso-lated amid a crumbling econ-omy. Shorn of the popular groundswell of support that swept him into office, his lack of political allies' threatens to cripple his authority.

"What a fiasco," said one European diplomat, comment-ing on the Usiminas debacle. "This govemment can't do the

. first thing properly. " "The privatisation flop was

a serious defeat for Collor," political scientist B olivar Lamouier agreed. "His isola-tion is very big."

Even if Collor succeeds, as bankers think likely, in resched-uling the privatisation and eventually pushing it through, the rapidly deteriorating ecnomy will not leave him any time to celebrate.

Inflation is nudging 16 per cent a month, close to the 20 per cent threshold at which yet another economic shock plan -frequently accompanied by a new economy minister - is considered inevitable.

Bankers and businessmen guess daily on how much longer embattled Economy Minister Marcilio Marques Moreira will

last. Marques only took office in May but few see him staying beyond December. His prede-cessor lasted just under 14 months. Collor has also been hit by a wave of allegations of corruption in his administra-tion, suffered the ignominy of seeing his brother-in-law jailed on a charge of attempted mur-der, and his wife accused of fi-nancial irregularities during her tempestuous and brief presi-dency of a state charity.

The president has promised to do all within his power to root out corruption and ensure offenders are punished, but so far no present or former gov-einment members have been charged.

Determined to go beyond short-term palliatives that never work - since 1980 Brazil has implemented eight stabilisa-tion plans, changed currencies four times, had six price freezes and 10 Central Bank presidents, one estimate said - Collor is attempting to tackle the prob-lem with fundamental reforms.

His solution is the "Emen-dao" (Big Amendment) - a wide-ranging proposal to the country 's much-criticized 1988 constitution. The aim is to raise revenue, reduce spending, at-tract foreign investment and balance the government's books. The snag is that the package requires a three-fifths majority in Congress to be-come law and Collor, who swept to power from a tiny political base, is far from sure of that degree of support.

Diplomats, however, believe it unlikely that a majority of legislators will embrace such electorally damaging propos-als as raising the retirement age, ending civil servants' jobs for life guarantees and cutting the autonomy of state govern-ments.

If they do not, the conse-quences could be bleak. -Reuters.

MBATJIUA NGAVIRUE

RUMOURS of staff being given sudden and unusual promotions in anticipation of the restructuring of the First National Develop-ment Corporation have been denied by a senior official at the corporation.

Senior Manager for Human Resources at the FNDC .1hinus Blaauw also disputed claims that the Corporation's car scheme is being extended prior to the planned restructuring.

Blaauw said he did not know where these lUmours came from, because there had not been an unsual rise in the number of promotions at the FNDC.

He explained that promo-tions were not made at a spe-cific time but that this· was a continuous process carried out throughout the year.

Promotions at the corpora-tion are furthermore based on the internationally recognised Peronmes post grading system.

Under this system the job performance of individual employees. is evaluated by specially trained members of a conunittee before they are promoted. 1be Peromnes grad-ing system applied at the FNDC consists of 19 different post-grades, with the managing directors position the most senior at grade 1. .

This position has however not yet been filled, and is un-likely to be filled before the restructuring of the corporation. Blaauw further explained that although an employee could receive a salary increase within his grade, he could not be promoted within the grade as the job evaluations for a par-ticular grade were fixed.

When posts become vacant they first have to be adver-tised, but preference is usually given to the FNDC's own employees.

Blaauw said the corporation received applications for va-cant posts from its employees in the regions almost every day.

If the applicants had per-formed well in their present posts they were naturally con-sidered for promotion.

Similarly if an employee performed exceptionall y well, he could also be given a salary increase within his present scale, but this is generally not classi-fied as a promotion.

Salary increases at the FNDC are normally given on April l, and the corporation usually tries to make them equal to the rate of inflation.

Recommendations for sal-ary increases are placed before the FNDC 's the board of direc-tors, and the fmal decision on increases is made by the board.

Blaauw however, stressed that performance related sal-ary increases could be given at any time during the year, and not necessarily on April 1.

"If someone is doing hisjob really well, we will want to give the increase right away. We want employees to per-form throughout the year and not just when April 1 is near-ing, ' , he e?'plained.

While people cannot be promoted within an existing grade the Peromnes system used at the FNDC provides for the regular review a particular jobs grading.

When jobs are reviewed they can either be upgraded or downgraded - either because the job has been split or com-bined - or because of some other change in the nature of the duties. With regard to the

FNDC denies accusations of pre-shutdown promotions

car scheme, Blaauw again stated that there had been no change in the conditions under which cars are provided to employees. He said that there were pres-ently three different car loan schemes at the corporation.

The first scheme only ap-plies to those in postgrades 1-6, and another for postgrade 7, while the last scheme is for grades be~ow postgrade 7.

Blaauw explained that post-grades 1-6 are given company cars because they are senior personnel, often with univer-sity degrees and a great deal of experience, whom the FNDC has to compete for on the open market These cars are expected to be used for work-related

•

• 9

purposes, but can be used for private purposes if the eI"\lploy-ees pay for their own petrol.

After five years or 120,000 kilometres they are given a new car, and the option of buying their company car at a market related value. The cars are sold to these employees at bookvalue, and because of-their salary scale they normal! y end up having to pay 42 per cent income tax on the purchase (fringe benefit tax). Although company cars were meant as a . fringe benefit, Blaauw said the cars provided were not excep-tionally luxurious, and usually amounted to a 2.4 litre Toyota Cressidas. Postgrade 7 employ-ees qualify for a subsidised car

loan scheme up to a maximum of R42,OOO for which the cor-poration charges a concession-ary interest rate of five per cent. Blaauw said that the FNDC had found that the highest turn-over of personnel was in post-grade 7 - and again the loan scheme was meant as a perk to discourage employees from looking for other jobs.

Post grade 7 employees mainly consisted of recent university graduates, who were often susceptipble to what they percieved as more attractive' offers, Blaauw said.

Employees below postgrade 7 only qualify for the subsidised loan scheme if management considers that they need a car

to carry out their jobs properly This includes personnel such

as trainers who have to criss-cross the country as part of their duties, and are therefore given car loans at the same subsidised rate of five per cent.

Blaauw also stressed thath the current situation at the corporation was very uneasy for all staff because they have been waiting for months for a decisiori from Cabinet on the future of the FNDC. He said the corporation had already lost a great number of highly skilled personnel because of the un-certainty about the corpora-tions future. In July and Au-gust alone the FNDC lost 13 people in the highly skilled

grades of grade seven and above while there were only six res-ignations in the lower postgrades. Blaauw stated that in the past the cotpOration could at least try and negotiate with employees who wanted to re-sign and maybe offer them better terms. "This is no longer pos-sible because no one knows whats going to happen with the FNDC, You may ask a person to stay but then later he is retrenched.

"We may lose skilled people who will be needed in what-ever new structure is created, and we would appreciate it if the government took a deci-sion as soon as possible," Blaauw concluded.

The down-side of IQ and aptitude tests

The following opinion piece has been written by Fredricka Ndeshl Immanuel, who has jnst retnrned to Namibia having completed a degree in Education and Psychol- . ogy at the University of Lancaster in the United King-dom.

ALLOW me to express my view about the article on apti-

zzzz ...

tude and IQ tests which ap-peared in the Times of Na-mibia of September 11. I am not taking issue with the maga-zine, but rather the subject of the interview with Dr Vorster, formerly of the Academy's Psychology Department.

Although IQ tests are per-haps new to Namibia, they are widely practiced in Europe, America and other countries. Like Dr Vorster, proponents of aptitude and IQ tests argue that these tests are necessary for the selection of the right people for the right jobs. It makes economic sense to have the right people ill given fields, but I do not think this selection can only be done through psy-chological tests.

Why not go by interest and motivation? A child is more likely to study hard ina subject s/he is interested in rather than

in one which s/he was chan-neled into by Mr or Ms Psy-chologist on the basis of an IQ test. The article also appears to suggest that aptitude and IQ tests wood help students choose their subjects, but I do not think this is necessarily so. The wrong choice can be made owing to a lack of sufficient information, or even poor guidance. It is well known in gender research, for example, that girls tend to make wrong choices because teachers make them do so. It seems, therefore, that there are many factors which lead chil-dren to choose wrong subjects/ professions, and not the lack of psychological tests.

Turning to Dr Vorster's argurn~nt about "Namibian-izing" IQ tests to make them more suitable to Namibian children, I believe that many people would still find them-

selves in the wrong professions. An IQ test is never going to be fair because one cannot make it suitable to children from different backgrounds. If, as is ·argued in the article, one makes the content of the test accord-ing to the child's experience, then you are already faced with the problem of discrimination.

To start with, all rural child will not have the same experi-ence. For example, children from the far north of Namibia will not have the same experi-ence as those from the east. So how would you account for

. that discrepancy in an aptitude test? Again, it is also likely that one may find an excellent physician in a rural area, but because of the content of the IQ test, that person would be channelled into rural-related subjects instead. You would discriminate against urban

Demonstrasie teen'vonnisse 'n GROOT aantal inwon-ers van Windhoek het Saterdag aan 'n optog . vanaf die gemeenskapsen-trum in Katutura tot by die Staatshuis deelgeneem aan 'n optog om 'n petisie te oorhandig met die doel om beswaar te maak teen die vonnisse wat onalngs in die hoogverraadsaak gefel is.

Die optog, Saterdag, het ongeveer 08hOO in Katutura begin en het teen lOhOO voor die Staatshuis geeindig.

In die petisie word gevra vir die onmiddelike afdanking van Bryan 0 'Linn, die verhoor-

regter in die sogenaamde hoogveraadsaak.

Die plakkate in die optog het onder andere gelees, "Is this Justice," "Judge O 'Linn and Prosecutor General must go," en Comarade President, use your executive powers to en-sure justice ...

Die Hoofkoordineerder van Swapo, Moses Garoeb, die Eerste Minister, l;:lage Gein-gob, en die Minister van In-ligting en Uitsaaiwese, Hidipo Hamutenya, het voor die Staat-.shuis die optog verwelkom in die afwesigheid van Sam Nujoma, President van Namibie.

vir die afdanking van al die regters wat nie die belange van die yolk op die hart dra nie.

Die Streekskoordineerder van Swapo, Jeremia Nambinga, het met die ooihandiging van petisic gese dat die teenwoordigheid van so baie persone 'n bewys is van dat die inwoners van hierdie land ontevrede is met die vonnisse in die hoogver-raadsaak.

Hoofkoordineerder van Swapo, Moses Garoeb, het gewaarsku dat · daar ' streg opgetree sal word teen die gene wat in die toekoms sal probeer om die wettig verkose reger-ing van hierdie land omver le

van Namibie se hulle het met 'n groot mate van kommer die publieke oproer waargeneem wat veral veroorsaak is deur sekere persone of instansies na die vonnisoplegging in die hoogverraadsaak. Die verklaring se dat die geregtelike gesag in die grondwet as onalhanklik ge-waarborg is en een van die steunpilare van 'n staat is. Indien die onathanklikheid van die gereg aangetas word sal die staat negatief belnvloed word.

Hierdie twee mans het geduldig met hul plakkate in OnafbaJ,lklikheidslaan staan en wag op die optog wat verlede Saterdag vanaf Katutura na die Staatshuis

Die verklaring lui da dit moontlik is dat regters ook foute kan begaan. In so 'n geval het enige individu die reg om redelike kritiek te lewer op die voorwaarde dat dit konstruktief enm posi-tief is. Dit is egter vir die prokureur-sorde onaanvaarbaar dat invloedryke persone dit nodig ag om oproerige standpunte te lig oor 'n saak met die uiteindelike doel om die regballk te belnvloed. Die prokureursorde vertrou op die regering om die in-standhouding van ' n onathanklike regbank te waarborg teen enige intimi-dasie.

Uitbreiding van Namib Air vlugte NAMIB Air het die uitbreiding van sy binne-landse diens sowel as die verhoging van sy tariewe op sekere van sy binne-landse vlugte bekend ge-maak.

Die verboogde tariewe sal vanaf 1 Oktober van toepassing wecs. In die verklaring word verduidelik dat lA TA sedert April vanjaar sy tariewe op vlugte in Afrika verhoog het maar dat N amib Air dusver die tariewe op dieselfde vlak be-hou het. Die verhoging het nou noodsaaklik geword.

Mokuti Lodge sal ook van 1 Oktober op die binnelandse roetes vanN amib Air ingesluit word.

Die lugdiens sal twee vlugte per week vanaf die Eros-Lughawe in Windhoek in 'n Beechraft vir negentien pas-sasiers nil die Mokuti Lodge voorsien.

Om saam te val met die nuwe verwikkelinge voorsien die lugdiens ook 'n 'n sesdaglange toer na die Etosha Wildtuin.

Die Bemarkingsbestuurder vanNamib Air, Frank Aldridge, se; "N amib Air het besluit om Mokuti bodge in sy binnelandse netwerk ingesluit om in die

aanvraag van sy passasiers te voorsien asook om die toer-isme na hierdie gewilde oord in die land te bevorder.

Die toer sluit 'n rit in na die westelike gedeelte van die park wat in die verlede nie bereik kon word nie.

Seles steals N okia tourney ESSEN: Monica Seles needed just 65 minutes yesterday to defeat American Mary Joe Fernandez 6-3, 6-0 in the fmal of the 500 000 dollars Nokia Masters exhibition tennis tournament.

Seles, ranked No 1 in the world. traded service victories with Fernandez for the first six games of the match, .

But with the first settied 3-3, the 17-year-old Yugoslav stepped up the pressure with hard accurate shots to the corners and lines putting Femandez on the defensive. Seles took the next nine . games and the match.

It was Seles' second chanlpionship at the Noka Masters, which she also won in 1989.

Gazza in another fracas LONDON: British soccer star Paul Gascoigne has aggravated the knee injury which threatened his career after being attacked in a night club in northern England on Saturday.

Gascoigne was punched in the face in a night club in his home town of Newcastle and fell to the ground, hurting his knee, police said on Sunday.

The incident also left Gascoigne with a bruised face and a broken back tooth. Police said he was travelling to London for treatment and advice fromhis club physiotherapist at Tottenham.

Watson has third operation LONDON: British boxer Michael Watson, who fell into a coma eight days ago after losing a punishing world title fight. has undergone a third operation, doctors said yesterday.

They said the brain-damaged fighter was in a stable condition after surgeons replaced a probe inserted insidehis head to minitor pressure changes.

Wilson, 26, collapsed, at the ringside after his defeat by compatriot Chris Eubank in a World Boxing Organisation (WHO) super-middleweight fight.

N Tvl in Bankfin final BLOEMFONTEIN: Northern Transvaal entered the Bankfin rugby Currie Cup final when they beat Free State by 27 points to 23 at the Free State Stadium in Bloemfontein on Saturday, Free State led 11,-9 at half-time.

N orthems won the day with a goal and seven penalties to Free State's two tries, four penalties, and a drop goal by fl yhalf J annie de Beer.

After 80 gruelling minutes the toast of the Blue Bulls was undoubtedly fullback, Gerbrand Grobler, who never put a foot wrong, as he was successful with six out.ol six penalty attempts and a conversion to notch 20 points. The Bulls remaining points came from a try by left-wing Jacques Olivier and a further penalty by Springbok Naas Botha.

Pozzi stuns Krickstein BRISBANE: Gianluca Pozzi stunned Aaron Krickstein with superb anticipation and a loosely strung racket yesterday to win the final of the 250000 dollars Queensland Open tennis champi-onship and the first title of his career.

The unseeded ltalian sliced and stroked the ball to confuse Krickstein and beat the third-seeded baseliner 6-3, 7-6 (7-4) on the synthetic courts of the Milton Tennis Centre.

The American needed to win the tournament to pass the two million dollars mark in career earnings, but the loss continued his two-year winless streak.

Pozzi, ranked only 136th in the world, won 32 400 dollars for his victory - the biggest paycheck of his career.

The Brat busts Jimbo BASLE: An eagerly-awaited semifinal between American veter-ans John McEnroe and Jimmy Connors proved a heavy disap-pointment at the Swiss indoor tennis tournament on Saturday.

Defending champion McEnroe ran away with the match, thrashing Connors 6-1, 6-3 to reach the final of the 750 ()()() dollar 'event, where he will play Swiss Jokob Hlasek.
