TRANSPORT: TRAIN ROBBERIES UNDER THE SPOTLIGHT

Safety about to derailMONIQUE DUVAL

@monique_duval

Train robberies, neighbourhood watchpatrols and burglaries took centrestage at a crime meeting in Glencairn

last week.The Simon’s Town Community Police Fo-

rum (CPF) Sector 1 subforummet at PhoenixHall last week to discuss various crime is-sues.

First upwas awarning to commuters trav-elling between Sunnycove and Glencairntrain stations to be on the lookout for rob-bers.

This follows three robberies in recentweeks during which commuters wererobbed by fellow passengers.

According to a crime report given by CPFchairperson Aliet Pelt, on behalf of police,the most recent robbery happened last weekwhen a woman sitting in a first class car-riage was approached by a man.

“He came over and started talking to herand was very friendly and then left to anoth-er carriage,” she explained.

The man later returned and informed thewoman he had a knife and wanted her cell-phone.

“He merely said ‘I want your phone, I havea knife’ and she gave him the phone,” Peltsaid.

The man got off at Glencairn station andit is unknown where he went to afterwards.

One resident questioned whether or notthe woman was responsible as she did notconceal her valuables.

“Sometimes they [robbers] just ask for itas they [commuters] don’t put their cell-phones away,” she said.

Pelt issued a reminder for commuters andresidents to conceal their valuables and tobe vigilant when using public transport.

A plan to revive the Glencairn HeightsNeighbourhood Watch was also raised andthe new coordinator introduced.

Pelt said while patrolling was initially notconsidered for the sector it had proved use-ful in reducing crime in Welcome Glen.

“I get in a car and spend two hours witha neighbour I never knew, we keep and eyeon activities and report any suspicious ac-tivity to police,” Pelt said.

Asked about the men they caught, Pelt ex-plained while on patrol one night they no-ticedagroupofmenandreported it to police.

They followed the men down Glen Road as

they headed in the direction of Fish Hoek.“The men had broken into cars in Simon’s

Town and were arrested. Today they are inPollsmoor,” she explained.

The police report also highlighted break-ins as a concern, many of which occurred inGlencairn Heights.

Subforum chairperson Arne Sonderlund

warned residents to takenote of peoplewalk-ing along the firebreaks.

Heexplained in threeof the cases thehous-es were “hit from behind”.

“We ask that you are extra vigilant andwatch people walking on the mountain,” hesaid.V SMS your comments to 32516 at R1.

Plan in the works to oust drugs, gangsMONIQUE DUVAL

@monique_duval

A bold new plan to tackledrug dealing and othercrime in Ocean View hasbeen revealed.This follows a state-

ment by Colonel MartinSwanepoel who heads upthe Muizenberg Cluster.Giving an overview of

crime affecting OceanView, Simon’s Town, FishHoek, Muizenberg andHout Bay police stations,Swanepoel says theOceanView precinct is the mostworrying.This, he says, is based

on the number ofmurderswhich have rocked themountainside communityover the past few months.He says an integrated

approach with all law en-forcement agencies willfocus on drug dealing andgang-related shootings.Swanepoel explains, to

date, there have been fivearrests for murder.“In all these cases we

have strongly opposed bail and the suspectsare still in custody,” he says.Earlier this month, more than 50 officers

took to the streets and five people were ar-rested for narcotics.Swanepoel says operations such as these

will become more frequent in an effort toput an end to “lawlessness” in Ocean View.On Monday 11 August, Ocean View resi-

dents held a meeting to discuss their crimeconcerns.Ocean View Civic Association (OVCA)

chairperson Patrick Josephs says the lackof faith in police was highlighted.He explains residents debated a number

of issues and says the dwindling presenceof a Community Police Forum (CPF) madematters worse.Josephs says they are happy with

Swanepoel’s stance on crime.“This is exactly what we have been wait-

ing for. The community is indeed hungryfor a stronger police presence and we willsupport Swanepoel to get rid of crime inOcean view,” he says.During August, People’s Postwas present

when an Ocean View woman who wantedto report a burglary and threats at thepolicestation.While there shewas ignored and of-ficers did not assist her to open a case.Swanepoel says such behaviour is unac-

ceptable and was considered “bad service”.He says residents facing similar issues atstations in the cluster should report themto him for further action.Commenting on other crime affecting the

cluster, Swanepoel says there has been asurge in sexual offences cases being report-ed in Muizenberg, Ocean View and HoutBay.In most of these cases, he explains, the

men are direct relatives or partners result-

ing in many of the cases being withdrawn.“Most times the perpetrator is the bread-

winner and the women rely on them finan-cially so the cases are withdrawn,” he says.In the Muizenberg precinct, street rob-

beries in Vrygrond and beach robberies arethe main concerns.Swanepoel says following the taxi vio-

lence, commuters are now dropped alongPrince George Drive and are being targetedby robbers on their way to work.Commenting on the arrest of teenagers

for beach robberies, Swanepoel says the ag-es of the perpetrators is most concerning.“We have liaised with the prosecutors to

bring social workers on board as we keeparresting children between eight and 14years and we believe we need to find anoth-er solution,” he explains.V If you are experiencing problems at your police sta-tion, phone Swanepoel on 082 469 3115.

OCEAN VIEW: AMENDMENTS TO CPF PROCEDURES

Elections put on holdMONIQUE DUVAL

@monique_duval

Plans to elect a new Community Po-lice Forum (CPF) inOceanViewwasbrought to a grinding halt.

After weeks of preparation the currentCPF, police and community organisa-tions gathered atOceanViewHighSchoolon Tuesday 19 August.Following several reservations from

the committee, the aimwas to elect a newbody which would focus on establishingneighbourhood watches and improvingthe relationship between police and resi-dents inMasiphumelele, Ocean View andKommetjie.Acting chairperson Tsepho Moletsane

started the meeting just after 19:00 withan announcement that no official fromthe Department of Community Safety(Docs) would be present.Ocean View Police Station commander

Lieutenant-Colonel Jakobus Augus ex-plained they were informed by Docs thatall elections needed to be halted until Oc-tober as all newCPF bodieswill nowhaveto serve a five-year termas opposed to twoyears.Augus suggested an interim committee

be elected.Organisations volunteering were re-

quired to fill in a form.Proportional councillor Pat Francke

said while several people had completedthe forms they had not attached the con-stitutions making the nominationsinvalid.Moletsane said the CPF will have to

hold another meeting in October to electthe official committee.Those present debated whether or not

an interim committee should be elected.Ward councillor Simon Liell-Cock

questioned whether or not an electioncould take place without an official fromDocs being present.Former CPF chairperson JohannKikil-

lus proposed the election be held in Octo-ber.“It will be an administrative nightmare

and I propose that those currently on theCPF stay there until the election in Octo-ber,” he said.Kikillus explained it would be pointless

to elect an interimbody for less than three

months.“They will just settle in and then there

will be another election. According to theconstitution, police can provide an officerto serve as a CPF secretary,” he said.But Augus did not agree. He said it was

“not the police’s job” to provide a secre-tary.This was countered by former secre-

tary Jo-Anne Meyer who said when elect-ed she was told police would provide anassistant secretary.“I was told police could appoint a secre-

tary. Itwasnever done and itmade it hardformewhen I couldn’t attend all themeet-ings,” she said.Aftermuch debate, those present decid-

ed Moletsane would continue as actingchairperson until the CPF received moreinformation about the new election proc-ess from Docs.At the time of going to print, Docs could

not confirm the procedure changes forCPF elections.Meanwhile, Ocean View has been

rocked by the murder of a 23-year-oldwoman. Her body was discovered inbushes near Red Hill Road on Monday 18August by SANparks staff.Simon’s Town police commander Cap-

tain Jacqui Johnson said, on arrival atthe scene, officers found the woman’sbody wrapped in a blue sheet.“Visible injuries to the body include a

bump to the head and the right side of herface was swollen,” she says.It appears the woman was choked or

strangled and the body dumped in thebushes.V Anyone with information is asked to phone hasSergeant Jerome Engelbrecht on 083 970 9107 or(021) 786 8646.

MONIQUE DUVAL@monique_duval

An application for a liquorstore in has sent Fish Hoekinto a frenzy.

News of the application result-ed in many residents lobbying tohave their objections heard to en-sure Fish Hoek remains a “drytown”.

According to a letter fromWar-rant Officer Peter Middleton, des-ignated liquor officer at FishHoekPolice Station, there are twonew applications.

The first was made by CapePoint Vineyards for the picnic ar-ea and the second by RaymondRundle for an off-consumption li-cence at Triangle Court.

Upon news of the second appli-cation several residents contact-edPeople’s Post to voice their con-cerns.

Residents have rallied againstthe application claiming it wouldlead the way for more retailers toapply for licences.

Resident Donald Moore, whohas submitted an objection, saysin his view a bottle store licencefor Fish Hoek is “totally unneces-sary and will do untold harm tothis village”.

In her August newsletter, JanetHolwill, chairperson of the FishHoek Valley Ratepayers’ and Res-idents’ Association, informs resi-

dents of the applications and saysthat once one licence is approvedthen all the other supermarketswill apply.

“Landlords with empty shopswill be only too happy to lease toabottle store as theyare generallygood payers. Therefore within avery short time we could have atleast five liquor off-sales outletsin Fish Hoek,” she writes.

Holwill explains that FishHoekhas always been a dry town andliquor is “freely available inGlen-cairn, Sun Valley and Kalk Bay,with delivery services”.

“I know many people say it isdesirable to pick up a bottle ofwine to have with their meal, butunfortunately bottle stores do al-so attract some undesirable ele-ments,” she adds.

The South Peninsula Subcoun-cil has also been asked to com-ment on the applications andchairpersonFelicity Purchase ex-plains these comments will bebased on what the communitywants.

She says comments need to besubmitted to subcouncil managerDesiree Mentoor by 16:00 tomor-row (Friday 22 August) to be con-sidered in their recommendation.

Councillors are expected to re-veal whether or not they supportthe application at the next sub-council meeting on Monday 25August.

In his letter, Middleton advisesthat all objections to this applica-tionmust be submitted directly tohim or alternatively to the West-ernCapeLiquorAuthoritybyFri-day 29 August.

“The relevant representation

must be in writing and hold rele-vant reasons or factswith regardsto the application at hand,” hesays.

Middleton further adds that pe-titions should not be used as “itaffords nothing but a single opin-

ion where it would be best suitedthat eachperson inwriting voicesthat opinion as they wish to”.V Do you think there should be a liquoroutlet in Fish Hoek? Starting with theword “Post”, SMS your thoughts to 32516.SMSes cost R1.

CMUIZENBERG: COMMUNITY COLLABORATION

Countdown to festival beginsMONIQUE DUVAL

@monique_duval

With less than seven weeks to go, Mui-zenberg is gearing up for the inaugu-ral Muizenberg Festival.

Street parades, concerts, exhibitions,workshops and other activities forman inte-gral part of the festival to take place at vari-ous venues from Sunday 5 to 12 October.

The festival has adopted theWorld DesignCapital (WDC) theme Live Design, Trans-form Life. In aligning with this theme, thefestivalwill focus on the social, cultural, eco-logical and economic development of the ar-ea.

Claire Homewood, who is part of the festi-val team, says the week will kick off withvarious workshops around Muizenberg ac-companied by concerts.

Therewill also be a street parade inAlber-

tyn Road hosted by the Jungle Theatre andthe festival teamhas joined forceswithOpenStreets which plans to close Main Road onSunday 12 October.

“They are currently negotiating with theCity of Cape Town to have the road closedto vehicular traffic between Kalk Bay andMuizenberg,” says Homewood.

The teamexplains for a fewhours the roadwill be open only to pedestrians who get toenjoy the street without dodging cars.

In a statement the team explains the ideais to celebrate and showcase their achieve-ments and express the community’s collec-tive aspirations.

“TheMuizenberg Festival provides an op-portunity for the community to build strong-er networks and support systems to createa more effective way of working together”.

Emphasis has also been given to local de-signers. With a community brand Made in

Muizenberg, designers have been showcas-ing their products throughout the year. Theevent was a market at Alive Cafe in Decem-ber.

Now the festival has a shop in PalmerRoadwheremore than 30designershavedis-played their products.

RobynWainwright explains the designersshare the rent and display their products.

“We found that many of the designers atdesign shows actually come from Muizen-berg so this is something we wanted to high-light and celebrate,” she explains.

Sandi Voges explains in addition to themain events there are smaller projects un-derway, including a project by Mosaic Mui-zenberg.

For this project participants make mosa-ics of fish which will be put on more than70 homes in Muizenberg Village.

“Every fishwill face in the direction of the

beach,” she adds.Fergus Turner says while Muizenberg is

a popular destination for surfers, the teamwanted to highlight that their unique com-munity was about more than just the beach.

He says the festival has also done all itsown fundraising as the team does not wantit to become a commercial venture.

“We used theWDC themes to create a plat-form to showcase the things that are impor-tant to our community,” says Homewood.

The festival has also created various plat-forms for funding donations. Homewoodsays using Thunda Fund, residents can pur-chase items in exchange for a donation.

On Saturday 30 August the festival willhost an open day at theMuizenberg Pavilionfrom 13:00 to 17:00 where residents can cometo learn more about the activities planned.V For more information visitwww.muizenbegfestival2014.co.za

MUIZENBERG: ROOF AND INTERNAL STRUCTURES DAMAGED

Tree fells church renovationMONIQUE DUVAL

@monique_duval

Plans to expand the Surfside ChristianFellowship Church in Muizenbergcame crashing down last week when a

palm tree fell onto the building.Following an accident during the felling

of the tree, the roof and part of the internalstructure have been damaged.Associate Pastor Chris Kitson explains

the building along Main Road was undergo-ing extensive renovations.“The plan was to have a space for our

church and we needed to remove the treesto make way for a wheelchair ramp,” hesays.Four trees needed to be removed and two

situated at the back of the buildingwere eas-ily removed.“We had done it a few days earlier and the

trees fell exactly in the rightway andwe hadno problems,” he explains.On Tuesday 10 August, workmen pre-

pared to remove the tree in front of the build-ing.Kitson, who was filming the felling, says

they were shocked when the tree fell to-wards the building.“It was supposed to go next to the building

but went straight towards it,” he explains.The church has consulted with two struc-

tural engineers who have given conflictingreports about what should happen next.“The first engineer says the majority of

the roof is okay but the other says the entireroof will have to be rebuilt,” he says.Kitson says this is one of many setbacks

faced by the church in several years.The church was founded by Dirk Wood

who has worked for several years to raisefunds for the church.

It is part of Arise and Shine InternationalMinistries which currently has churches inthe Philippines, America and England.A few years ago they planned to buy a

property next to the building to build an ark-like building which would be a place of fel-lowship and would house abused women.This dream came to an abrupt end when

theywere informed by City of Cape Town of-

ficials of a road scheme stretching into theproperty.“The space we were left with was not

enough and so we raised funds to buy thebuilding next door,” he explains.Over the past couple ofmonths the church

has undergone several renovations in thehopes of having church services there.In December, the building was also hit by

burglars who climbed through a small holeand stole various items.“The taps were also stolen resulting in

their entire building flooding. It really hasbeen a horror story,” he says.The church is now seeking help in the

form of advice or funds.V To view the video go to www.peoplespost.co.za. Ifyou would like to help phone Kitson on 081 270 4576.

cameras – one will need to beput on the cat in themorningand the other at night.“We will analyse the foot-

age and look at what the catsprey on,” she says.In the last two weeks own-

ers will be required to record

what their cats bring home.In the first study Morling

discovered cats only bringhome a quarter of what theycatch.The results of the second

study will be compared withothers to get an idea of whatcats in Cape Town prey on.“We have selected areas on

the urban edge of the TableMountain National Park andthis way we can see whetheror not domestic cats have animpact or not,” she explains.Morling requires 14 cats

aged between one and eightyears.“They also have to be ac-

tive hunters and have free-dom of movement,” she ex-plains.In her first study, Morling

says, many aspects of thelives of domestic cats came tolight.“You see the most interest-

ing things. In one case wefound a cat which had a por-cupine as a friend. It really isamazing to see what they getup to,” she adds.In this study, Morling also

observed the interactions be-tween dogs and cats.The second study will be

conducted during Septem-ber.V If you would like to participate inthe study email [email protected].

Hanging a door could be reallytricky. Here are tips on how to doit right at the first attempt.

PreparationUsing a level, check that the frame

is built in properly square. Measurethe door opening, then trim and sandthe door’s edges, until there is a clear-ance of 2mm all around the door. Tocheck, wedge the door inside theframe, making allowance for floorclearance.

HingesTraditionally hinges are set 150mm

– 175mm from the top and 200mm –250mm from the bottom of the door.With ahollow core door, locate the lockblock and fit the hinges to the oppositeedge.

With the door on its side, place eachhinge on the door – spindle outermost,projecting from and parallel to, theedge of the door. Trace the hinge’s out-line, also mark its thickness on thedoor’s face. Carefully chisel out thehinge recess so the hinge will sit flushwith the door edge. Mark the screwholes and drill pilot holes.

On the frame, trace around the hing-es in the same way. Wedge the door inagain to check on accuracy,

then chisel the hinge recesses in thedoor frame, and mark and drill pilotholes on the frame.

Screw the hinges to the door, wedgeit in position again and screw the otherleaf of each hinge to the frame.

LockPosition the body of the lock against

the side of the door (on the lock block,when dealing with a hollow core door).Mark its top and bottom and transferthese marks to the edge of the door.Mark the positions of the keyhole andhandle spindle, through the body of themortice lock. Drill these holes.

Mark the centre line of the door edgeto help you trace the rectangle for thebody of the lock. Drill a series of suffi-ciently deepholes and chisel out excesswood, keeping sides straight. Smooththe inside and insert the lock. Tracearound the front plate of the lock andcut out the recess to take this plate.Screw it on.

HandleFit the spindle, then screw the door

handles and lock covers on to the door.

Striker plateClose the door and mark the top and

bottom of the door catch and the lockbolt on to the door frame.

Transfer these marks to the edge ofthe frame and cut out the necessaryholes. Cut out a recess in the frameedge to take the striker plate and screwit on. – www.pennypinchers.co.za

Mortgage origination and how it affects youApplying for a home loan can be a very timeconsuming and involved process. Mortgageoriginators can assist you in applying for ahome loan or building loan from the variousmajor banks.How mortgage origination works:You sign an offer to purchase on a proper-

ty.The estate agent obtains information

from you regarding how your home would

be financed.The estate agent then forwards this infor-

mation to a mortgage originator.The originator should then contact you

with advice on what the different banks of-fer, including home loan type and home loanrate.You then choose an option which suits

your needs.The originator submits the necessary doc-

umentation to the bank of your choice.The originator follows up on the applica-

tion process with the bank and should keepyou abreast of what is happening at alltimes.The originator confirms with you the ac-

ceptance with the bank.The originator informs you of all the legal

requirements and follows up the processwith the transferring and bond attorneys.

Amortgage originator cannot guarantee ahome loan.The service is free to buyers as the origina-

tor is paid a fee once the home loan is regis-tered.When dealing with an originator make

sure you don’t pay an origination fee.Most estate agents work closely with orig-

inators as they have built up a very closeworking relationship over the years.V For more information concerning finance or anyreal estate questions contact Engel and Völkers on(021) 782 006 for professional advice.

Romance of a heritage homeUnique character and history are irre-

placeable for some buyers, says a prop-erty group in a statement.

For those who love the style and romanceof bygone eras, there can be no greater findthan a heritage home to call one’s own. Theunique character of high ceilings, largerooms, historic architectural styles andoriginal features such as fireplaces or wood-en floors, can hold immense appeal for buy-erswith a love of history anddesign, and canalso ensure such properties command topprices. Yet the purchase of such propertiesdoes not come without certain responsibili-ties, says Laurie Wener, managing directorof the agency.“The style and atmosphere of heritagehomes is hard to match,” says Wener, “andthey often occupy prime locations. Many ofthem boast ample space including multiplebedrooms and grand-scale reception rooms.They also tend to be well-built structures,with thick walls, old-school attention to de-tail and craftsmanship, and sometimes irre-placeable features such as rare wood finish-es. Yet buyers who dream of renovating ormodernising such properties should beaware they cannot just move in and startbuilding – while such projects can be re-warding and achieve outstanding results,

the work is carefully controlled by heritageauthorities.”Mark Bell, an architect andmember of theAssociation of Professional Heritage Practi-tioners, says in a statement a heritage homeis not simply one which is very old – thereare multiple other factors which are consid-ered in determining heritage value, includ-ing cultural, aesthetic or geographical sig-nificance, the authenticity of its current con-dition, and historic, social or spiritualassociations with the property.A three-tier grading system is in place toidentify the significance of heritage build-ings in South Africa, with Grade One re-sources being sites of exceptional signifi-cance, such as Robben Island, which requireprotection by national heritage authorities.A Grade Two building would be consideredto have special significance within a prov-ince or region – such as Groot Constantia orthe Cape Flats Nature Reserve – while aGrade Three building would be one consid-ered outstanding or important in its localcontext.In Cape Town, heritage resources are es-sentially protected by both theNationalHer-itage Resources Act and the city’s local Zon-ing Scheme Regulations, which identify cer-tain Heritage Protection Overlay Zones.

These are entire areas demar-cated as being of broader her-itage value, for example Wyn-berg Village, Sea Point, Ob-servatory, Little Mowbray, StJames or the city centre. Any-one wishing to make altera-tions to a property in these ar-eas must submit an applica-tion to the council, which willassess the potential impact ofthe proposed renovations onthe area’s greater heritagecharacter.Any building older than 60years is automatically pro-tectedunder theNationalHer-itage Resources Act, no. 25 of 1999 from un-checked development,meaning that permitsmust be obtained from the provincial herit-age resources authority to alter or demolishany part of the structure. “Most of CapeTown’s suburbs contain buildingswhich areolder than 60 years,” says Bell. “Some havehigh significance, if for example they weredesigned by Sir Herbert Baker. Some havemedium significance, and many have rela-tively low significance. Demolition, altera-tion and additions to these buildings needconsideration in context of that signifi-

cance, and proper processes need to be fol-lowed.“It is advisable that buyers, developers, ar-chitects or anyone else involved in such aproject should discuss their plans with therelevant officials at an early stage to estab-lish significance, grading, no-go areas andthe potential for success of their proposedideas or designs. The City’s Heritage Re-source Section is represented in all the Citydistricts and areas, and can provide perti-nent information on the different processesinvolved.”

Lorraine is driven by passion, hardwork

It is no coincidence that Lorraine Webb isa multiple award winning top real estateagent.She recently attended the Top 15 Awards

Breakfast at Erinvale Hotel, held by Fine &Country South Africa, and received anaward for the second highest sales turnoverin the Cape Region. No mean achievementwhen Lorraine is competing with, amongothers, Constantia, Waterfront, SomersetWest and Franschoek offices where averagehouse prices are significantly higher than inthe Fish Hoek area.Lorraine attributes her success to five key

reasons:

. Passion – I love my work. It is all aboutpeople and fulfilling their dreams. My workis varied and exciting and not without itschallenges.

. Knowledge – Keeping abreast of the le-gal and legislative side of the property busi-ness is important. In thismarket continuouseducation is critical and one of the reasonswhy I chose to be one of the first agents inSouth Africa to write the new legislatedproperty exams, theProfessional Practition-er in Real Estate qualification.

. Hard work – There is no easy road tosuccess – a motto that I hold close to myheart. Thiswork ethic has proved invaluable

forme throughout the 30+ years I have beeninvolved in the business community in FishHoek.

. Quality – If you do something do it well.Poor or shoddy work has a habit of comingback to bite you.

. My clients –Without my past and exist-ing clients Iwould not have received this lat-est award. My clients are incredibly loyal. Iprovide themwith an on-going quality serv-ice and I am rewarded by being the first per-son they contact about property. This year95% of my sales have been because existingclientshave comeback tomeor referredoth-er clients to me.

What in the world is happening to our children?In some Southern Suburbs the police are scratching

their headswithworry about child-influenced crimes andgangsterism.In Mitchell’s Plain children are believed to be playing

a game called “rape, rape” in which rape is simulated.The education department is rightly worried that pri-

mary schoolboys should be so informed of such heinouscrimes that they imitate the act upon schoolgirls.These children – our future adults and supposed leaders

– are armed and dangerous.They’re fearless and, through their actions, laugh in the

face of an impotent legal system which will more thanlikely dither the process for so long that the victims havelong written-off justice.There are hardly any real fair deals for victims.Ifmost serious crimes, suchas rape, gounreported,who

even bothers to report lesser crimes like cellphone theft?The easiest action is to blame absent parents. In most

cases this, together with an environment that breeds andencourages violence and easy money, should bear theburdenof guilt. But the other reality is parents,whomakebabies and leave their social skills in the hands of teach-ers, religious organisations and other adults, are equallyunlikely to admit they have failed miserably at raisingtheir children well.So what is society to do?There are simply too few do-gooders to go around and

those who run organisations tasked with the mandate tocare, cannot be blamed for sometimes simply running outof steam.Violence begets violence and the evidence of such ac-

tions plays out daily on the streets of Cape Town – alsoknown as the rape capital of the world.One would not be remiss in wondering about the char-

acter of our children.What kind of adults will they be?We live in hope.

Play gives insight into plightLara’sFoot’s playFishers ofHopewasagreattheatrical experience. The play should be inline for a top award for stimulating theatre.While the setting of the play is in an im-

poverished fishing village in Kenya, the sto-ry line and issues addressed, apply to strug-gling subsistence farmers in the entireworld.The cast, stage and set was superb. It was

absolutely riveting theatre, which took youon a journey into the lives of the strugglingfolk of a poor fishing village, literally aban-doned by an uncaring and corrupt govern-ment. Basic healthcare resources that onetakes for granted in the cities, are absent inthese areas.It doesn’tmake the situation anybetter for

these poor villagers, when their aspirant ed-ucated youth are denied jobs in the city be-cause they belong to the wrong tribe or lackthe necessary government connections.These poor families spend their entire

earnings to educate their children in thehope that their children will extricate themfrom the throttling noose of crippling pover-ty when they qualify from university or col-lege. Their hopes are cruelly dashed whentheir educated youth returnwith high quali-ficationsbutwithno chances of gettinga job.To add to the village people’s misery is the

subterfuge of the Chinese, who offer to buildroads in Africa, but insist on using only Chi-nese labour, consigning the unskilled local

people into a life of eternal poverty.What is quite sickeningly evident is that

the only way for the world’s poor to survivethe harsh cruelties and challenges of life isthrough sheer innate resilience, stoicism,hope and religion. When this does not help,then they are forced into the unpleasant lifeof crime, drug peddling and prostitution.The irony is this poverty exists amid somuch abundant resources owned by a few.What a pity plays like these, which nudge

our consciences about the social injusticesin the world, do not attract the same theatrenumbers as do the expensive boring stand-up comics and has-been crooners, who per-form well after their sell-by-dates.As usual, this play will do very well at the

Edinburgh festival, and when it does, thenit will play to sell-out audiences in South Af-rica. We still need to be told by foreignershow good our writers and playwrights arebefore we can acknowledge them.Well done to Lara for writing a great play.

She should tackle aplayon the ruthlessman-ner our fishermen inKalk Bay andArnistonwere denied fishing licences by government.Many small-time fishermenwere stripped

of their licences after fishing and supportingtheir families andworkers for over 40 years.Big corporates have crafty lawyers and gov-ernment lobbyists to protect their interests,but who protects the small man?DR EV RAPITI

Thanks to allfor supportOn behalf of Round Table Southern Africa,I would like to express my sincere gratitudefor the tremendous support we received inthe form of media coverage for this year’sWinter Knights Fighting Cold campaign.The value of your publicity is held in high

esteem by our organisation as it plays a ma-jor role in communicating the details of ourfundraising events to your readers. We arethrilled to report that we received an over-whelming response of donated blankets andwarm clothing.So, once again, our sincere thanks to you

and your readers for helping the WinterKnights of the Round Table bring hope andsmiles to those less fortunate in your com-munity – this is the true measure of the suc-cess of this campaign.LEON GARBADE,President: Round Table Southern Africa

Spring in the Southern SuburbsAs the long dark days of winter fade,giving way to the joys of spring,There comes an air of expectancy,with the call of birds on the wing,Their different sounds ringpureandclear,from surrounding shrubs and trees,The chorus starts at the crack of dawn,carried on the wings of the breeze.And as the sun ascends on its trek,bringing the warmth and light,The flowers awaken to greet the day,their petals a beautiful sight,Their aroma is carried by the wind,it’s a fragrance that comes for free,Along with colours shapes and size,that are there for all to see.Then in the bay around this time,

the whales come out to play,They journey here from distant lands,and give birth along the way,To see the breaching of a whale,is a humbling awesome sight,At times they rise to such a height,you think they might take flight.And then we have the mountain peaks,it’s a beautiful time to hike,A time to go jogging, walk the dog, ride a

track on your mountain bike,Take a stroll on the cat walk, with the

waves crashing at your feet,Explore the shops and the markets,and smile at the people you meet.

. People should be given their housesand the arrears scrapped. Let them startover.

. These are domestic workers and theyare suffering too much. Give them houseswithout asking for so many papers, espe-cially the divorce papers. Where they canreceive, give them houses without thosepapers.

. The biometric system policy was sentto all owners and put on notice boards andimplemented for the safety of all residents.

. Ever since the housing project started,it was said should you be in arrears youneed to make arrangements or see thecouncil, but now itmust bewritten off?We,as single parents, pay hundreds of randsfor rent. Don’t be fooled. There are 60 flatsin Ocean View with 15 paying single par-ents, but others want handouts? If it is go-ing to happen, there will be chaos.

.Whymust some people sell their furni-ture to pay off their arrears, while otherswant theirs written off? They should stopgoing for affidavits to cover their lies. Firstit was the houses are too small, now it’s thearrears. What’s next?

Shane. He rescued a dog and I gave him a lift

to the vet and they called the owner. Hewas excited. He got a job with the munici-pality, but it didn’t last. He knows my carand avoids me, but the other one swearsand carries on, to a point I don’t like stop-ping at the robot. Karon

. Lekay is a menace! My daughter andI are sick of him terrorising us. If he bangson our cars once more I will report him tothe police.

. Shane is a menace. He told me at therobots: “I know where you live.” We aregetting on in years and this made me verynervous especially when you read all thatis happening to people in their homes. Hehas also stood in front of my car smilingat me and would not move until I startedaccelerating and he had no option. He isvery intimidating to women on their own.My husband has also seen him trying toopen an elderly person’s back door andhooted at him, atwhich point he hit the carand walked away. Beryl

. He needs to be put away. He is scary.Harassed lady

. Shane tries to survive and offers helpmany times. He also looks after his young-er brother and parents. We know him fora long time and never saw him being rude.Certainly Shane needs help and guidance.He seriously is looking for any kind of job.Perry and Lutz

. Shane could adopt a road or “his inter-section” and keep it free from litter. By do-ing so hemay be seen in a favourable light.More like community service than beg-ging. People will give more willingly Ithink. Peter Viljoen

. As a relaxed man, both brothers haveangered me. Not hearing the word “no”,sometimes a level of intimidation follows.I have given very sternwarnings and havenearly gotten out my car numerous times.I have witnessed the intense intimidationon women at the traffic light. I feel for thehomeless, but the traffic light experienceis disturbing and annoying.

. I have known Shane for many years.I help him with the odd blanket, food andany loose change when I see him at theLongbeach or main Kommetjie Road junc-tion. I have never seen him bang on carsor harass anyone. He can be very persua-sive, though. He is just trying get food tohelp his family. Shane has had an extreme-ly hard upbringing and just needs help.
