EMERGENCY NUMBER: CALLERS FEEL THEY ARE LEFT HANGING

‘No answer at 10111’NADINE MOODIE

When faced with an emergency, thefirst thing you need is help. Butwhen that help is a phonecall away

and no one is answering, you could feel likeyou’re left hanging.

A businessman says he’s called the 10111emergency number on numerous occasionsand had terrible experiences.

“I witnessed a robbery where people werestabbing each other,” says the man, whodoes not want to be named. “It was a heated

situation and people were getting hurt. Icalled the emergency number and there wasno answer. I was frustrated and afraid, so Icalled again and reported thematter, but thepolice never pitched.”

He says he no longer calls the police andinstead drives to a police station to reportcrime.

Language also became an issue.A previous time when he tried reporting

an incident to 10111, “the call centre opera-tor asked me to refrain from speaking Afri-kaans because he couldn’t understand me”.

He believes some 10111 operators don’thave a good command of languages spokenby the people whom they’re serving.

An elderly woman, who does not want tobe named, says she calls 10111 at least threetimes a week to report crimes , but very sel-dom gets a response from the police.

“It’s very frustrating when police encour-age residents to report crimes and promiseto come to your assistance, but never pitchwhen you call,” she says.

“I tried to report a case where a young girlwas being raped by her grandfather, but nooneanswered thephoneat thepolice station.I called (suspended chairperson of the pro-vincial Community Police Forum) HanifLoonat, who went to the police station to re-port the crime.

“The rapist is nowbehind bars becausewemanaged to go to the police to report thecrime. What happens in cases where peoplecan’t go to the police?”

The feisty woman says she sometimestakes the law into her own hands and per-sonally removes drug peddlers from herstreet.

Other residents walk to the police stationto report crimes because their calls are notanswered.

“The service is appalling. During Ram-adaan I called to report an incident and thecall centre agent put the phone down in myear because she could not understand Eng-lish. Another time my call was transferredto an answeringmachine saying they’re ‘notavailable at the moment’,” she recalls.

“I’m a pensioner and spend money buyingairtime to call and they don’t pitch.”

Heideveld Community NeighbourhoodWatch chairperson Mugidien Barnes saysthe service is at its worst over weekends.

“I’ve tried reporting shootings and domes-tic violence cases over weekends and no oneanswers the phone,” he says.

Loonat, who is suspended for criticisingthe Athlone Police Station, says he’s re-ceived countless complaints from peoplesaying they can’t get through at weekends.

He says government should upgrade thesystem so callers can select a language pref-erence.

Loonat says he’s relayed complaints todeputy provincial police commissionerGen-eral Sharon Japhta about the “inefficientand ineffective emergency number”.

He says some people who called thenumber were reporting shootings and do-

mestic violence.“I’ve received 30 complaints in the last

threemonths. I also tried calling thenumberand no one answered.”

It’s better for people to call 10111 becausethe system automatically logs the call andrecords the conversation, so then no one candeny facts of the conversation, he says.

Technological aspects need to improveand well-trained operators need to be em-ployed, Loonat adds.

“We should not be playing with people’slives. Money should be spent on this service,even though it’s costly, because our people’slives cannot be in danger.”

Provincial police spokesperson FC vanWyk says 10111 is a medium to receive com-plaints, which are “registered and dis-patched to the local police station or com-plaint vehicle responsible to attend to thecomplaint. It is the station commander’s re-sponsibility to attend to the complaint with-in their policing area”.

He says there are delays at busy times, likeweekends and month-end.

“All calls should be answered within twoseconds. About 63% of all calls are nuisanceand information calls.”

HILLVIEW: COUNCILLOR TAKEN TO TASK

City official,resident inwar of wordsASTRID FEBRUARIE

Hillview informal settlement residentsare not happy with their ward coun-cillor, Shaun August.

In a letter written to the City of CapeTown Randall Fortune, chairperson of theHillview 1 informal settlement committee,says: “Unfortunately, our councillor can-cels his meetings minutes before it com-mences, which is very unprofessional andshows lack of commitment.He is only avail-able in office once or twice a week becausehe serves as chairperson of the portfolio.”Fortune says the problems that they face

in their area are not petty and needs to beaddressed urgently.“Gangsterism and drugs are rife in our

camp. We need youth development pro-grammes to be implemented, which arenon-existent at the moment,” he says.Fortune is demanding answers.“We have many questions to ask. We feel

like the ward councillor ignores our con-cerns.“He is never available. Our camp and

roads are covered in filth.We are calling ona new councillor to be appointed.”Fortune adds that the community needs

to be involved in the decision-making proc-ess so that they, too, feel a part of somethingpositive.Shaun August is quick to dismiss For-

tunes’s comments.“Mr Fortune is the chairman of 38 infor-

mal shacks, and seems to be of the opinionthat I should respond to him via the media,as he speaks for the people,” he says.“Asward councillor, I listen to the people

within my ward and strive very hard to as-sist all where possible. I cannot, and willnot, be able to give my full attention to justone individual all the time.”August says public meetings are organ-

ised and well attended by members of the

community.“Residents come tomy office, which is lo-

cated in the heart of six informal settle-ments and within walking distance fromVrygrond. There, I deal with all complaintsI receive and register the complaints viaSAP C3 notifications, should it be a servicedelivery issue.”August adds that he would like Fortune

to attend the CPFmeetings so as to addresshis concerns and also to actively get in-volved with the neighbourhood watch.“I also need to advise that I am not ignor-

ing these issues, as I am in regular and con-stant contact with the police, Metro Policeand Law Enforcement.”August says he has requested Fortune to

visit or set upmeetings with him to discussmatters and deal with any complaints, butAugust sayshe is verbally attacked inmeet-ings and in public, which, he says, he “willnot tolerate”.He pointed out that a new play park has

been erected in Hillview and he has recent-ly “noticed children in the community en-joying the new park which is still not 100%complete”.August says his contact details are avail-

able on his office door.“My office is within walking distance,

and my cellphone number is displayed onmy office door in the event that I am notthere. Many communitymembers havemycellphone number saved on their phones,andmycontact details have also beenprint-ed on flyers and distributed throughoutmyward.”He adds he has regular public meetings

and walk-abouts in the community.Councillor Ernest Sonnenberg, the City’s

Mayoral Committee member for UtilityServices, says: “My office is not aware ofany such complaints regarding councillorAugust. All such complaints should be di-rected to the Speaker’s Office.”

INVITATION TO ALL SUPPLIERSTO REGISTER ON THESUPPLIER DATABASE

Open fOpen fororboozbooze-nesse-nessAfter the implementation of a new liquor by-law in April, the City of Cape Town is set toreconsider trading hours of liquor outlets.Over 90%of respondents in the first round

of public hearings requested that tradinghours be extended and that outlets be al-lowed to operate on Sundays.Currently, the bylaw allows licensed trad-

ers to sell liquor for off-site consumption be-tween 09:00 and 18:00 fromMonday to Satur-day. Liquor may not be sold for off-site con-sumption on a Sunday.This excludes wineries, which can trade

from their tasting rooms.V What are your thoughts on the liquor bylaw? Start­ing with the word “Post” SMS your thoughts to 32516.SMSes cost R1.

ABRABRAHAMAHAM MULLERMULLER doesn’t see liquor outletstrading on a Sunday as a problem. “People justwant to chill with a glass of wine or two – there’snothing wrong with that. Just act responsiblywhenever you drink, no matter what the day.”

NOXYNOXY BENTEBENTE is against liquor trading on Sundays.“It is a religious day and many people do not be-lieve drinking on a Sunday is right. On the otherhand, restaurants open on a Sunday and servealcohol so people are still able to drink. Why notjust extend the operating hours during the week?”she asks.

PPAATRICK BENTETRICK BENTE says liquor outlets, like any otherbusiness, need to make money. “Allowing thesestores to operate on a Sunday could possibly cre-ate more jobs. Extending the hours could allowstaff to earn a little bit more as well.”

ALEX TALEX TABELAABELA says he fully supports an increasein trading hours. “They must extend the hours.I work until very late at night and can’t alwaysbuy liquor. I don’t work on Sunday, so I can goto the shop.”

MARISKAMARISKA DEDE JONGHJONGH is often inconvenienced bythe early closing hours of the current bylaw.“18:00 is early. What if you need to buy beer fora braai, but you only leave work at 17:00? By thetime you get to the bottle store it is packed. Thetrading hours don’t need to be extended to Sun-days, though. You can shop on a Saturday.”

REMONA JREMONA JANSEANSE insists the contentious liquor by-law should not approve liquor outlets operatingon a Sunday. “I don't even like being around peo-ple who drink, especially mothers with young chil-dren. I believe Sunday is a holy day and peopleshould not be allowed to buy alcohol on a reli-gious day.”

RRUDOLPH LOUDOLPH LOUWUW says this bylaw has been triedand failed in the US. “It just entices people to buymore beforehand, which fuels alcohol abuse. Ille-gal enterprises will also just spring up to supplyconsumers after hours.”

FBNR: APPLICATION SUBMITTED

False Bay Nature Reservewants Ramsar statusCHRISTELLE WIESE

An application process is currently un-derway for a section of the False BayEcology Park (FBEP) to become a

Ramsar site.If approved, this means the site will be of

special significance as a waterfowl habitataccording to the Convention of Wetlands ofInternational Significance, more common-ly known as the Ramsar Convention.

The Ramsar Convention is an intergov-ernmental treaty which provides a frame-work for national action and internationalcooperation for the conservation and wiseuse of wetlands and resources. The treatywas signed in the Iranian city of Ramsar in1971.

The City of Cape Town is currently apply-ing to the National Department of Environ-mental Affairs for this status.

Councillor Garreth Bloor, Mayoral Com-mitteemember forEconomic,Environmen-tal and Spatial Planning, says the bounda-ries of the area in question coincide withthe boundaries of the False Bay Nature Re-serve, but does not include the Sandwolfcoastal section.

Bloor says, given the influence of the glo-bal Ramsar brand, approval of this sitecould strengthen the City’s hand in biddingfor significantly large events.

“A fully-accredited Ramsar site, togetherwith two world heritage sites, twoUNESCO-accredited biosphere reservesand a national park, would make the Cityof Cape Town an even more formidable op-ponent in bidding for such events,with ben-efits to the City’s and Province’s economy.”

He adds Ramsar status could also im-prove thedevelopment of a local greenecon-

omy and improve tourism.“Ramsar status will promote, and can en-

hance, theCity’s ability tomanage its biodi-versity and ecosystems, thus promotingrecreational, social and economic opportu-nitieswhich derive fromCapeTown’s natu-ral assets.”

There are currently 2 123 Ramsar sitesworldwide, 21 of which are in South Africa.Five are located in the Western Cape.

Bloor explains the proposal to seek Ram-sar status for FBEP was initiated by theFBEP steering committee a number ofyears ago, but that it is a lengthy processdue to protocol.

He says sites applying for Ramsar statusare required to meet only one of the ninecriteria set out by the treaty. TheFBNRcur-rently meets six.

“The boundaries of the site also coincidewith the revised boundaries of the FalseBay Park Important Bird Area. This areawas originally defined in 1998 and is partof a programme by BirdLife Internationalwhich identifies conservation prioritiesbased on the occurrence of key bird speciesthat are vulnerable to global extinction orwhose populations are otherwise irreplace-able.”

Bloor says, apart from increased tourismand economic development, other benefitsof Ramsar status for the FBNR include in-creased local awareness and pride; in-creased funding opportunities for wetlandprotection and increased interest in scien-tific studies.

More than 85 000 gate entries have beenrecorded at the FBNR and Ramsar statuswill boost avitourism,which is anichemar-ket that the False Bay Nature Reserve fallsunder.

GROOTE SCHUUR HOSPITAL: WOMAN DEMANDS INVESTIGATION INTO STILLBORN BABY’S DEATH

Mourning mom waits for answersNADINE MOODIE

A first-time mother is demanding an-swers and is questioning the actions ofGroote Schuur Hospital staff after giv-

ing birth to a stillborn baby girl.A week before the expected date of deliv-

ery, Nikita Kleinsmith (21) experienced mildcontractions on Thursday 27 June.

A heart condition makes her a high-riskpatient and she attended Groote Schuur Hos-pital’s Maternity Obstetrics Unit.

After noticing a substance on her under-wear, she phoned the hospital and was ad-vised to go in immediately, she recalls.

“I was examined by the doctor on night du-ty and was sent home at 09:00 the next dayeven though I was still in pain,” she says.

Later that day she experienced severe con-tractions. “The following morning I startedbleeding and experienced contractionswhich were five minutes apart.”

She was taken to hospital by ambulance.“When we arrived at hospital I was admit-

ted to the maternity ward where I washooked up to machines which monitored thebaby’s heart rate. A student nurse came intothe room and I told her I needed the toilet.

“Even though she checked the results onthe machine which confirmed the baby’s

heart rate was dropping, she still removedthe heart monitor band from my stomachand allowed me to go,” she says.

“I am a high-risk patient because I havea heart condition, so shouldn’t more carehave gone into ensuring my baby’s safety?Don’t hospitals have bed pans for patientswith my condition?”

She says when she returned from the toileta doctor asked her if she took herself off theheart machine.

“I informed the doctor that a studentnurse took me off the machine and allowedme to go to the toilet.”

Kleinsmith claims the doctor left the roomand called another nurse who attached a uri-nal bag to her and took her for a scan.

“The doctors then decided to do an emer-gency Caesarean section when they realisedthe baby’s heart rate was dropping. I wasprepped for surgery and before I went intotheatre they called my heart doctor to do theoperation, but he was not available at thetime.”

She says they did another scan and toldher the baby had died. “He added that if theyperformed the operation they would’ve putmy life in danger. Shouldn’t I have been giv-en that choice to make?”

Kleinsmith says she experienced contrac-

tions and “had to give birth [to baby Zoe] asif she was still alive”. “My mother spoke tothe doctor who told her the umbilical chordcame loose from the afterbirth and that thebaby died of a lack of oxygen. But when Zoewas born she was still attached to the umbili-cal chord and the afterbirth.”

Kleinsmith says the hospital wanted to doan autopsy, but she refused and said theycould “use the afterbirth instead, becausethat is where they believed the problemstemmed from”.

“I was told if Zoe had survived shewould’ve been brain dead.”

Six weeks later Kleinsmith still has no an-swers. “It’s been more than a month sinceher passing and I’ve still not been informedabout the cause of death.”

She says she wants feedback as she is una-ble to come to terms with the death of herbaby.

Mark van der Heever, the provincialhealth department’s deputy director of com-munications, says the department is una-ware of the patient’s experience.

“This is the first time the department ishearing about this case,” he says.

No formal complaint has been made toGroote Schuur Hospital, Van der Heevercontinues.

“Once the department receives the com-plaint it is usually acknowledged in fivedays and the patient is provided with a re-sponse within 30 working days, after thecomplaint has been thoroughly investigat-ed.”

He says the patient will also be providedwith an interim response outlining theprogress of the complaint and date of whena detailed response can be expected.

“All complaints received are regarded asserious and recorded in the complaints reg-ister which contains the complainant’s de-tail and origin and nature of complaint.”

He adds: “Groote Schuur Hospital is atraining hospital where certain tasks maybe allocated to students, who should beworking under the supervision or instruc-tion of more senior qualified staff. Some-times students are already qualified, but areworking towards becoming a specialist in arespective field.”

Van der Heever advises that patients fol-low the correct complaints procedure as itis “the only way in which we can provide asolution or improve our service in the caseof unsatisfactory incidents”.V To lodge a complaint against provincial governmenthealth facilities, SMS the word “HELP” to 31022, call0860 142 142 or email [email protected].

Online help for rape survivorsAccessing justice is on-ly an app away.

The Rape CrisisCape Town Trust haslaunched its Rape In-formation Portal onMxit.

It will form part ofMxit’s “MySafety”app, which currentlyhas 164 475 subscrib-ers.

Research conductedby Rape Crisis showedthat a lack of informa-tion and a poor under-standing of how thecriminal system worksprevents rape survi-vors from accessingjustice.

This portal will vast-ly improve the accessi-bility of informationabout rape to women,particularly in poorerand rural communi-ties. The app, calledRapeCrisis, is current-ly available in English,Afrikaans and Xhosa.

It distils 30 years ofexperience workingwith rape survivors in-to a simple yet compre-hensive informationpackage.

It empowers womenwith the informationthey need to navigatethe journey towardsjustice and recovery.This complex processhas many steps includ-ing disclosure, report-ing to police, a forensicexamination and med-ical treatment, policeinvestigation, courtproceedings and coun-selling.

Rape Crisis directorKathleen Dey says theaim is to act as a bridge between the rapesurvivor and the criminal justice system.

“Rape Crisis is committed to offeringsurvivors information that is clear, accu-rate and accessible. The value of the Mxitmobile social network is that it is an inex-pensive, easily accessible tool with enor-mous reach as it can work on nearly anyphone. Women in poor and rural commu-nities might not otherwise have had ac-cess to this vital information.”

Andrew Rudge, the head of Mxit Reach,says the MySafety app was created earli-er this year in response to the AneneBooysen tragedy.

“Including the information from RapeCrisis increases the value of this app im-measurably as a tool to inform and em-power users.”

Arable land under threatLIAM MOSES

A group of activists is set to approach pro-vincial minister of environmental affairsand development Anton Bredell as itaims to stop a housing development inthe Philippi Horticultural Area (PHA).

The City of Cape Town voted to redrawthe urban edge of the PHA and allow adeveloper to build housing the in the areaon Wednesday 31 July, after the MayoralCommittee voted to propose this to thecouncil on Tuesday 16 July. However, thefinal decision still rests with Bredell.

The Schaapkraal Developing FarmersAssociation (SDFA) fears that allowingthe development could lead to a snowballeffect that sees the area’s farms boughtup one by one, to the detriment of foodsecurity and emerging farmers’ need forland.

Nazeer Sonday, organisation’s secre-tary, says it hopes to convince the provin-cial government not to sign off on the de-velopment.

“Now we are going to be targeting An-ton Bredell and Helen Zille to preventthem from signing it. We have to call ameeting with them. Everything happenswith pressure so we have to find ways topressure on them now,” he says.

“We have a vast campaign going. Wecollected more 2500 signatures in 24hours on a petition. It’s standing at over3 000 signatures now. We have to focus ongetting new people involved now.”

A recent study (Philippi HorticulturalArea – A City Asset or Potential Develop-ment Node?) found that farmers in thePHA have increased production in recentyears and grow around 1 00 000 tonnes of

fresh produce each year. It also foundthat the PHA plays a major role in foodsecurity in adjacent areas through sup-plying small retailers and hawkers, andthe estimated 2000 tonnes of produce giv-en away to farm workers each year.

Sonday says PHA farmers can supplyfresh produce to the Cape Flats at a lowercost than farmers further away fromCape Town.

Councillor Gareth Bloor, MayoralCommittee member for economic, envi-ronmental and spatial planning, defend-ed the City’s decision.

“The city has grown by 30 percent aswe saw in the last census and there is anincredible need for housing,” he says.

“Food security is a top priority and weassessed the current land use of Philippiand found that 100 hectares are requiredto maintain the current agricultural out-put. There will be just under 2 000 hec-tares left after this development.”

“A lot of the produce doesn’t go to low-income households, it goes to high end re-tailers.”

The SDFA recently drew up a VisionPlan for the PHA which highlighted are-as which could be used for housing andthe prime farming land.

The farm earmarked for the develop-ment is on the outskirts of the PHA, andborders Strandfontein Road, but is primefarming land according to the organisa-tion.

Bloor says the City would consider re-drawing the urban edge in the areas ear-marked for housing in the Vision Plan,but that it cannot control which farmerschoose to sell land and where developerschoose to buy.

Long weekends and the big days are synonymous withroad death tolls.

In this Cape Town is, sadly, generally the log leaderwith the highest death rate nationally.

And often speeding is accompanied by alcohol abuse toincrease the road deaths on South African roads.

This is not for a lack of trying to avoid the toll throughgovernment and private initiatives, including anti-drunkdrive campaigns and free roadworthy checks for vehiclesin the run-up to the holiday seasons.

The City of Cape Town is reconsidering trading hoursof liquor outlets. This follows the implementation of anew liquor bylaw in April.

In the first round of public hearings more than 90% ofrespondents have requested that trading hours be extend-ed and that liquor outlets be allowed to trade on Sundays.

Like a child who is told “no”, there is a common senti-ment that if a preference is denied through law or societalmores, it will drive a person towards – rather than awayfrom – that preference.

In short, people who want to buy alcohol on Sundayswill find a way to do so. The alcohol will probably tastethe sweeter for the purchase having flouted the laws.

In a rather unusual twist, a Johannesburg man report-edly driving under the influence of the fermented grape,has been arrested for driving too slowly on the N1.

He is said to have been driving at 30km/h in the120km/h zone on Saturday night.

Adding to this, the 45-year-old was driving with the carlights off.

A report says when he was instructed to get out of thecar, the man struggled to stand upright to take the breath-alyser test.

He tested nearly four times above the legal limit of0.24mlg.

What’s the moral? Drink with caution. And when youdrink, don’t drive. Give your car keys to a designated driv-er or take a taxi home. There are alternatives.

Mount Madiba: money could be better spentIn response to “Mountain Faceoff” (People’sPost, 6 August): I think that this is a goodidea, but I feel there are more pressing is-sues which need to be attended to in ourcountry and in our city.

There are a lot more things that need theresources and time of our government.

Many roads are named after him and evenour money has his face on it.

This monument will cost a lot of moneyand there are other things that needs ourmoney, namely education, housing and san-itation.

Our government needs to start looking af-

ter us, the people of South Africa, and notjust one person or one legacy. As a youngperson in South Africa I feel we are the fu-ture of this country and if more effort couldbe put into us, then we can make this coun-try a better place for the people.TANIAN ZION, EMAIL

Howmust the poor live?The petrol price increased again. A fewyears ago I could survive on, say, R50 a day(for the) very basic (needs like) toastedbread, petrol (and) electricity.

During 2010/2011 it increased to R100 andtoday it is R200. When I go to the bank, I mustwithdraw R200 for the day. And I still live(a) very basic (lifestyle). Within the firstweek of the month the account is empty.

Where must those people who don’t have(money) get, say, R200 a day to live a verybasic life? Is there a government initiativewhere we can come with our unemploymentcertificates, get a government bank card andget a daily limit of R200 a day from peoplewho live so luxuriously?

Greeting a special womanThis letter goes out to a special woman whois no longer with us.

Leaticia Keet of 19 Stone Court LavenderHill was a wonderful woman with so muchenergy, love, spirit; a sportswoman to havein your team all the time and she had a win-ning attitude. She was a great young mother,a sports personality, with respect for all.

When I heard she was diagnosed with can-cer I trusted and believed she would over-come the illness.

(I) had great hope she would recover andtake her position on the netball field amongthe elite where she played competitive net-ball with her mother and families for YoungOlympic Netball Club.

Leaticia (Poertjie) Keet, you will bemissed by all. The sports fraternity will missyou, especially now as the Spring netballtournament starts.CLIVE JACOBS, LAVENDER HILL

. I am writing this letter for councillorPetersen to see. As a resident of Mozart Roadit has become a very great concern. The rea-son is to see that she must be made awareof the way cars are speeding down this road.This road needs to get speed bumps very ur-gently. It is good to see the other roads aredone and we are left out. Weekends have be-come a nightmare for us all the way the carsrace up and down. I hope something can bedone soon before it is too late.

. It seems we are left alone to fight ourbattles in Lavender Hill. So far we had a lotof empty promises and nothing was done. Dowe need another murder before alleys – thatare of no use to the innocent – are closed?I suggest we close it and plant gardens. May-be we should call in the mayor. Jay Dee

our mountain. I’m sure Madiba would notapprove. A Teppler

. Tell this (man) to take his plans to Hol-land and put it on one of their mountains.Oh, they don’t have any. That is why theywant to come and destroy our mountain.

. Honour a national icon by altering aworld famous (and beautiful) mountainface? Terrible idea.

. I am sick to death hearing about“former President Mandela’’. Yes, he hasdone his bit for SA, but so have other people.So why would we need to deface our Table

Mountain? Find a place at his home town(for) a big statue or use the money to givehis town folk running water and toilets, andget them out of the 1950s. It is a crying shamethat money being raised could instead beused for the South African people who don’thave homes (rather than) spending all thatmoney on a head! Why doesn’t the Dutchfirm WHIM deface their own mountain (ifthey have one). Kommetjie

. I love the idea of honouring Madibawith a statue on Table Mountain. It wouldbe fitting if it was erected on Lion’s Head ashe is a lion of a man, a leader of men. Hefreed this country, but his legacy is beingmismanaged on a large scale. J Curtis,Faerie Knowe

. I think it is a ridiculous idea. Leave themountain in its natural beauty. G

. No, especially if it is like everything elsein Cape Town: expensive. Most people haveto save to go anywhere as it is.

. I really think most people are berserkwith Mandela! Half of the country/build-ings/roads are named after him already!Everybody forgot he was found guilty in thehighest court for high treason/terrorism.

. Why do you want do something againstGod’s creation (by) putting a statue on Dev-il’s Peak? That is a joke. Think. Please.

. I don’t agree with Mandela’s face on Ta-ble Mountain. He is not the only one whomade changes in this country. His face andmonument are already all over the countryand has been honoured in many other ways!

. A definite no to the Mandela monumenton Table Mountain, nice the thought mightbe. Alec

. Leave our world-renowned heritage sitealone. Have never heard of anything so stu-pid. Don, Obs

. Mandela did what he could, but nowpeople (are trying to make a god of him toput him on the mountain. If they could theywould put him in heaven! All silly nonsensethis is.

Workshops to restore family unitNADINE MOODIE

Parenting workshops for residents ofLavender Hill will help steer childrenaway from gangsterism.

This is the opinion of ward councillorShanen Rossouw, who is in the process ofputting an initiative into action in the hopeit will restore the family unit.

After teaching formore than 20 years, Ros-souw says she is saddened to witness manyof her former pupils

have turned to gangsterism in a search foracceptance.

“The problem lies with the education de-partment because the system doesn’t caterfor problem children,” she says.

“Most of the schools in the ward are over-crowded and teachers don’t have the capaci-ty to handle these children.”

According to Rossouw, the problem alsolies with religious groups who hold services“nearly every evening and have parents at-tending the services. It’s usually during thistime when the child gets a gap and gets in-volved with gangsterism, drugs and thewrong crowd”.

“Our churches need to take responsibilityand should also look into equipping theircongregants on how to be better parents. Iknow Lavender Hill from the inside out andit’s sad to see how parents have lost theirway.”

Rossouw says the Department of SocialDevelopment has agreed to fund the project.She says 10 people will be employed throughthe Extended Public Works Programme aschild care workers to work at each of theschools in the ward.

“When a child gives problems in the class-room, the teacherwill refer himor her to thechild care worker who will assess the childand informme. Iwill then get hold of the par-ents who will then undergo the parentingworkshop.”

Lavender Hill Civic Association chairper-son Charles Daniels says he plans to lodgea complaint against Rossouw at the HumanRights Commission.

“When and how I pray has nothing to dowith the councillor and, as a Christian, I amtaking this matter to the Human RightsCommission,” he says.

“We’ve asked her to find solutions for

housing, unemployment, sanitation and toimplement sporting activities in LavenderHill, but instead she’s spent funding onspeed bumps and maintenance. The flats inthe precinct should be condemned becausethey’re older than 40 years.”

Saying she has been “misunderstood”,Rossouw adds: “I’m not saying our parentsare bad parents. They’ve just lost their wayand I want them to be better parents. I didnot say I’m against the churches. I just saidthe churches need to take responsibility andshould ensure that parents take their standin their homes.”

Proud2b me Foundation founder AdeleGrosse supports Rossouw’s initiative.

“It’s wonderful that ShanenRossouw real-ises the importance of family,” she says.

“Children often lose their (sense of) be-longing at home because parents give uptheir responsibility out of fear and stepback.”

Grosse says it is “usually during thistime” when children get involved withdrugs and gangsterism. Working on astronger relationshipwith parents helps thechild focus on positive transformation, shesays.

“We need to bridge the gap with intergen-erational issues. Often grandparents raisegrandchildren, so these workshopswill helpwith understanding.”

Music icon’s life goes on the reelAdance documentary, Seven Steps, is beingproduced to tell the illustrious life story ofSouth Africa’s greatest musical icons,Taliep Petersen.Seven Steps refers to the iconic Seven

Steps of Stone located at the heart of Dis-trict Six, Petersen’s birthplace.Seven Steps, a documentary portrait, is

produced by Imbiza Entertainment, a bou-tique film company dedicated to the pro-duction of local and indigenous storytell-ing. With development support from theNational Film and Video Foundation, thecompany is in the process of raising addi-tional funds.Petersen died in December 2006. While

the media has scrutinised every aspect ofhis death, little attention has been paid tohis life. To honour this multi-faceted artist,SevenStepswill explore seven different per-sonas of Petersen.He created amusical tapestry inspired by

the people of District Six.Despite its complete physical annihila-

tion by the apartheid regime, District Sixwas kept alive and still stands strong in thehearts and minds of South Africans thanksto the music, dance and characters createdby Petersen himself.Director Dominique Jossie says over the

past year she had the pleasure of spendingtime with the Petersen family.“Taliep’s father has been an inspiration

tome. Now that some time has passed sinceTaliep’s tragic death, the family has had achance to reflect on their son, brother andfather’s life.”Jossie has chosen a unique approach to

the documentary genre by incorporatingstorytelling through dance.“The stories are rich and varied. The fo-

cus has shifted from the tragedy of his un-timely death to a celebration of an incredi-ble life and the contribution he made to thecommunity.”The company needs the support of the

community to maintain momentum for theproject.They have launched a crowd funding

campaign on thundafund (http://www.thundafund.com/sevensteps) to raiseadditional funds for the documentary.Those interested in making a contribu-

tion can contact Dominique Jossie on076 709 1041 or [email protected] Steps is set to be released mid-2014.

Hockey for the‘have-nots’LIAM MOSES

On the Cape Flats, an area almost devoidof hockey, one club is striving to growthe sport and attract the next genera-

tion of players.CentralHockeyClub (CHC)was founded in

1993, when several Athlone clubs merged,and has always aimed to serve “the broaderCape Flats community”.

Though the sport is relativityunpopular inthe area, many Central players have alreadyachieved higher honours. The club canproudly lay claim to shaping Proteas playerssuch as Quanita Bobbs and Bruce Jacobs.

CHC continued this tradition on Saturday,when primary school players from Langa,Hanover Park, Ottery and Imizamo Yethuparticipated in a hockey festival, to cap offsix weeks of clinics hosted by visiting Dutchplayer Manouk Vernij.

Ron Hendrickse, event organiser and Cen-tral executive committee member, says theclinics and tournament will help grow thesport where development is most needed.

“There are big gaps in our system – one ofthe biggest gaps is at primary schools,” hesays.

“We refer to the schools as the 20 percent-ers and 80 percenters. The 20 percenters arethe ‘haves’ – if you go to those primaryschools there are coaches and lots of extra-mural activities. When you talk about the 80percenters (the ‘have-nots’), they don’t havetime to do the coaching and extra-murals.Theyhave social issues that theyhave to dealwith. We find ourselves in an area where wecontinue to experience real social issues.”

The festival saw under-8 and under-12 boysand girls from these areas participate in afriendly tournament at the Central’s head-quarters, the Vygieskraal Hockey Complexin Johnson Road, Athlone.

Hendrickse says many other clubs don’tneed to develop players because the schoolsin the area provide a steady influx of alreadydeveloped players.

“The primary school project has alwaysbeen on our agenda, but it required resourc-es. So it’s only when we manage – throughhard work – to get a little support that we cando it,” he says.

“There are thousands of 80 percenters inthis area and we can’t even come close to ca-tering for all of them. We are pretending todo the government’s or federation’s work,but we are contributing in a small way.

“And there are very few hockey clubs thatdo this type of thing.”

Vernij’s presence at the club and the devel-opment programme forms part of Central’spartnership with the Netherlands’ HaagscheDelftsche Mixed (HDM) Hockey Club. Thefestival was also organised to celebrate andthank her for her work, as she returned toHolland on Sunday.

Engen Knockoutto rock WynbergLIAM MOSES

The battle for under-17 football domi-nance will resume this weekend whenthe 10th annual EngenKnockout Chal-

lenge finals kick off.Regarded as a proving ground for Cape

Town’smost talented young footballers, theChallenge is hotly contested by 16 of theMother City’s best teams each year.The 10th edition will be no different, fea-

turing the under-17 sides from four differ-ent professional teams, two of South Afri-ca’s best academies and some of the Cape’smost well-known amateur clubs. People’sPost is the tournament’s print media spon-sor.In Group A, Pinelands-based Old Mutual

Academy, Mitchell’s Plain’s Kenpark Unit-ed, Green Point Salesians and Island Rov-ers will compete for the top two places anda spot in the next round.With excellent facilities, coaching to

match and a track record littered with thespoils of junior tournaments, Old Mutualare clear-cut favourites to qualify top of thegroup and face the second-placed finisherfrom Group B.The rest will have to fight it out for sec-

ond place and face the tougher route to thefinal with the winners of Group B waitingin the next round. BothKenpark and IslandRovers are capable of sneaking through.InGroupBdefending champions and five

time victors Ajax Cape Town are expectedto brush aside any challenge in the groupand finish with three wins and a healthygoal difference.Fellowprofessional outfitVascodaGama

should fill the second spot after a breezingthrough the last qualification round witha 100% record and an average of three goalsper game. Cape United and Kuils River FCwillmost likely continue onto the Plate sec-

tion of the tournament.Group C is the toughest of the tourna-

ment this year.While tournament hosts and former

champions Santos will be favourites to fin-ish first, the race for second place is lessclear cut.Grassy Park’s Crusaders are the form

side out of the three, after banging in 10goals in three wins during qualifying. Butdespite less impressive track records, Coca-Cola Cup senior champions Hanover Parkand Kraaifontein City could be the group’sdark horses.ASD Cape Town Academy, Challenge

champions in 2010, willmost likely take thetop spot in Group D with National First Di-vision team Chippa United finishing sec-ond.The Claremont-based club scored seven

goals and conceded none in three victoriesin the qualifiers and have a history of un-earthing andpolishing the roughdiamondsof Cape football since inception. AtlanticNacional and Bishop Lavis will scrap toavoid finishing at the bottom of the pile.The tournament will kick off at 17:30 on

Friday, with Old Mutual facing off againstKenpark United on the B field, and run un-til the last game at 20:15. The Challengewillrun from 09:30 to 15:30 on Saturday, andfrom 09:30 until 15:30 (tournament final) onSunday.All games will be played at the William

Retreat RFC climbed to second place ontheDivisionThree logafternotchinguptheir third consecutive victory on Sat-

urday.The Allenby Drive club outscored historic

rivals Temperance RFC by three tries to one,claiming a memorable 24-16 win in front ofa strong crowd at City Park.

Temperance opened the scoring in the 14thminute, after a frantic opening period, whenscrumhalf Alistair Theys goaled his secondpenalty attempt of the match.

Retreat immediately hit back when playresumed, with fullback Lorenzo Gordonbursting down the left wing to touchdownand flyhalf BrandonAdams bisecting the up-rights with his conversion.

The home team regained the lead in the25th minute after winning a scrum in the op-position 22. Theys collected from the setpieceand darted at the line, before putting flyhalfRicardo Africa into a gap in midfield. Theysconverted to take his side to double figures.

Retreat finished the half strongly andscored their second try after reverting to ba-sics.

The Retreat forward packwonmomentumand sucked in thedefencebefore quickhandsfrom the backline put centre Genico Vaar-land into space on the leftwing.Adams againconverted to bring the half-time score to 14-10.

Temperance were the stronger side afterthe break but failed to take their opportuni-ties,withTheysmissingpenalties either sideof Retreat’s third converted try in the 15thminute.

The Retreat backline showed excellentawareness to quickly switch play from oneside of the park to the other, wherewingGer-ard Engelbrecht waited in space. Adamsmade no mistake with his conversion.

Temperance substitute Ryan Alexandergoaled two penalties in quick succession af-ter taking over the kicking duties fromTheys. However, Retreat had the last wordwhen Adams slotted a penalty in the 30thminute.

Strand Pioneers currently lead the logwith 51 points, Retreat are second with 47and Young Ideas hold third with 44.

Although Retreat will feel confident ofclaimingwins over Perseverance, Peninsulaand Imiqhayi in their last three games, theycould still finish out of the top two as everyother side in the league has either one or twogames in hand.
