STEENBERG: COMPANIES ‘CAN AFFORD PRIVATE SECURITY’

Anger as police escort trucksTAURIQ HASSEN

Locals are livid at the sight of deliverytrucks carrying cigarettes being escort-ed by police.

A number of cigarette delivery truckshave been targeted in heists in recentmonths. This has prompted drivers to re-quest a police van fromSteenbergPolice Sta-tion to escort them during deliveries.Kevin Southgate, chairperson for the

Steenberg Community Police Forum (CPF),says people have witnessed the trucks beingescorted and started to raise questions.“They (police) see it as a form of ensuring

visibility in the area. We see it completelydifferently because these are huge corporatecompanies who are able to afford the servic-es of private security companies,” he says.Southgate explains that, due to ongoing

gangviolence, the area requires theundivid-

ed attention of Steenberg police, but feelsthat this cannot be achieved if police vehi-cles are escorting cigarette trucks.“This is quite a serious concern and it is

something that has been raised with the po-lice. Theyhavenot denied that theyhavenotbeen doing so and there are several peoplewho havewitnessed this happen in our com-munity,” he says. “It’s not right and it mustbe fixed.”Mark Russouw, secretary for the Langev-

lei Ratepayers’ and Civic Association, sayssimilar complaints were received by the as-sociation and this action by police has notbeen well-received by locals.“I find this completely ridiculous, because

it is our taxes going towards this,” he says.“The police have way better things to do

than worry about the trucks being robbed.Russouw says companies should be re-

quired to use the services of a private securi-

ty company instead.Retreat resident Shaheen Zoutman says

he has seen three trucks in the last twoweeks under escort of armed police officers.He laughed when explaining that Steen-

berg police now acted as private security forpeople fearing to move freely around thecommunity.“It’s really no joke, but one has to laugh

at the thought of workers paid by our gov-ernment, from our tax money, servicingcompanies that do absolutely nothing forour community,” Zoutman says.“I might as well visit the station every

week and ask a police officer to accompanyme to work.”Lieutenant Colonel Adriaan Saulse,

Steenberg police’s acting station command-er, says management at Steenberg policeagreed to provide the escort duties.The CPF was provided with reasons and

the decision was taken after the last armedrobbery.“These duties, however, do not impact on

service delivery to the community of theSteenberg police precinct, but is aimed atimproving visibility throughout the pre-cinct,” Saulse says.He adds that the initiative is also to im-

prove and monitor relations between busi-nesses owned by foreign nationals, “as aproactive and precautionary measure” toavoid robberies.The duration of the partnership has not

yet been determined by police, but is evalu-ated daily.“This precinct can not comment on strate-

gies that other police precincts have imple-mented to address their own individualcrime patterns.“This office is reserving comment on such

matters,” Saulse says.

Pupils at Harmony Primary School inSteenberg rocked the town with theirannual concert on Tuesday 21 andWednesday 22 May. The pupils weresaid to be performing with so muchenthusiasm, dancing, singing andacting. Pictured are some pupilsmoments before heading on stage.

POVERTY: DAILY CHALLENGES OF LIFE ON THE STREET

Winter worries for destitute driftersTAURIQ HASSEN

Snuggled under a sparse blanketand struggling to find comfort ona wet, dismantled cardboard box,

he braces himself for the night ahead.As the rain continues to pour down,

Ashley van Bloom tries to keep warmunder the bridge he calls home.

The coals of the fire he and his“housemates” built with a plasticmilkcrate and branches glows as they seekheat around the brazier.

Ashley has been homeless all hislife. Over the years he has had to steelhimself against the natural elementsof a Cape Town winter.

And, despite August being known asthe Cape’s rainy month, it seems thefull wrath of the season has come ear-ly, and with it several cold fronts mov-ing across the peninsula since the be-ginning of this month.

Ashley and three other homelesspeople recently made the bottom of abridge along the M5 highway theirhome.

Homeless sincebirth, the 23-year-oldhad been abandoned by his parents inhis birthplace of Worcester.

“I started off with nothing and I stillhave nothing – no family, no friends,no money, not even a warm place tosleep,” Ashley says.

He’s never lived in an orphanage. By17, hewas stabbed for food three times,arrested for stealing clothing from astore and hospitalised for pneumoniaand dehydration.

“Life on the streets is not easy – I hadto learn it the hard way. I try to makethe best of my situation, but it’s hard.I am not giving up,” Ashley says.

Hehasneverhad the opportunity forformal schooling and his personal doc-uments were destroyed in a shack fire.

But this has done little to curb hishunger to learn. Ashley would jumpover a school fence and eavesdrop atclassroom windows during lessons.

Selwin Adams uses the same bridgeto shelter from the rain.

He started calling the streets hishome after running away to escape anabusive home.

“I would have done anything to getaway from my parents. Being on thestreets made me feel free and happy,”Selwin says.

“I experienced so much on thestreets. Now I tell myself I am going todie here.”

The 32-year-old has spent six yearsin jail, beenhooked ondrugs and aban-doned life as a gangster.

“Living on the streets is no joke, yetthere are people who take their livesfor granted. We don’t know where ournext meal will come from or if we aregoing tomake it through the night,” hesays.

“On the surface it may seem as if weare happy to live like this, but we arenot.”

Both Selwin and Ashley go door-to-door asking for food, clothes and blan-kets. They collect branches from openfields to start fires to keep warm andrely on disposed food to still the hun-ger pangs.

A study conducted by the City ofCapeTown thismonth shows that 7 000homeless people roam the streets ofCape Town.

Hassan Khan, CEO for the HavenNight Shelter, says demand rapidly in-

creases at shelters during winter.He says their shelters don’t close

their doors to the homeless. “We obvi-ously cannot take every homeless per-son at the shelter, but we try our bestbecause we know this is a very diffi-cult time of the year for them,” Khansays.

Field workers at the shelter assessthe person for the possibility of re-inte-gration into society.

“We speak to them and try to con-vince them to return to their familiesor homes,” Khan says.

Heurges the public to avoid handingout items to the homeless, as this willonly keep them on the streets.

Suzette Little, the Mayoral Commit-tee member for Social Developmentand Early Childhood Development,says an additional R200 000 has beenbudgeted for the street people pro-gramme in the City’s winter plan.

“The issue of persons living on thestreets will always be a complex, mul-ti-faceted social problem with diverseprecursors and risk factors,” Littlesays.

“Nobody wants to be out in the cold,wet weather during winter and, there-fore, the City has ensured thatwe havethe right partners to address the chal-lenges.”

She adds the programme aims to “ef-fectively reduce the number of peopleliving, sleeping and seeking substanc-es such as alcohol and illegal narcoticson the street”.

“A database of street people will becompiled so that we can effectivelyreach as many people as possible.”V Phone the City’s Street People call centre on0800 872 201.

RETREAT: ELDERLY ‘DEVASTATED’

Aged at the mercy of criminalsTAURIQ HASSEN

Residents at the Douglas Murray OldAge Home are at the receiving end ofcrime plaguing the greater Retreat ar-

ea.In recent months, the Home has become

a soft target for criminals. It was broken intotwice and the staff were forced to protect thehome.On Sunday 2 June, at 02:00, a man jumped

over thewall and tried tobreak into the laun-dry with a screwdriver. A second accom-plice kept watch outside.Fred Daniels, CEO of Douglas Murray,

says the Home has started working closelywith the community to try and remedy thesituation.“Our job here is to look after and care for

the people, but that becomes difficult whenyou have people running in and out of thehome,” he says.He explains that most of the problems are

encountered during the night shift and theHome wants to put in place “more sophisti-cated” security systems.Increasing the number of security person-

nel on the premises and installing propermonitoring systems are also priorities.“Unfortunately, we are lacking the funds

which is preventing us from introducingthese methods,” Daniels says.After each incident, he says, residents are

traumatised and in need of counselling.

Sister Clarence Alexander, Head of Nurs-ing at the Home, says residents are still re-covering.She says it is “devastating” for the resi-

dents to have criminals invading theirspace.Alexander says these incidents have an

immediate impact, which makes thingsharder for the nurses at the Home.“The residents don’t forget easily and get

over some of the incidents. They start stress-ing and thinking about these incidents. Wetry our best to keep them relaxed, but it isdifficult,” she says.Kevin Southgate, chairperson of the

SteenbergCommunity Police Forum, says issad to see the Home deteriorating and callsupon the community to lend a helping hand.He had been fully briefed on the security

concerns at the Home and understands theyface financial challenges.Southgate says they could form a business

forum and adopt the old-age homes in thecommunity.Meanwhile, Southgate approached local

neighbourhoodwatches to include theHomeon their list of places to patrol.An appeal has also beenmade to the Steen-

berg police to increase visibility at theHomeand the sector commander was requested tovisit the Home regularly for updates on thesituation.“Places such as Douglas Murray play

quite an important role in the communityand we must try and assist them. I wouldurge the community to help wherever theycan, because this Home has become quite animportant institution in Retreat,” saysSouthgate.V Anybody wanting to assist the Douglas Murray OldAge Home, can call (021) 712 2146. SAFETY FIRST: Residents at the Douglas Murray Old Age Home are a soft target for criminals.

NAME AND SHAME: RECORDS ‘VAGUE’

Campaign: what’s in a name?RICHARD ROBERTS

If Jeff Radebe does not react to a plea fromthe provincial Department of Roads andTransport, it may result in a court case.RobinCarlisle, the provincialminister for

Roads and Transport, said on Thursday thatRadebe, the minister of Justice and Consti-tutional Development, recently halted thedepartment’s Name and Shame Campaign.Through the campaign the names of driv-

ers convicted of driving under the influencewill be published. It is run by Carlisle’s de-partment, LeadSA and the Cape Argus.

The campaign, which ended inNovember,was launched to curb drunk driving.Carlisle discussed the decision to halt the

campaign with transport minister BenMar-tins on Thursday. “I want to ask him toplease address this matter with his col-league. If nothing comes of this, we will seeklegal advice,” Carlisle said.“Wewill likely launch an interdepartmen-

tal dispute and approach an advocate to ad-vise on the legal options.”Hector Elliot, a departmental official, said

the records of drunk driving are no longersupplied to them. These records were, how-

ever, made available to them earlier thisyear, but the content is vague.“(It only contains) the names and ID num-

bers, but does not indicate what the perpe-trator has done.”It is for this reason that they can no longer

publish the names, he said.Provincial traffic chief Kenny Africa said

about 25drunkdriverswerearrestedweeklyduring the campaign. “Since the campaignhas stopped, there has been an increase ofbetween 55 and 60 drunk drivers,” he said.But Mthunzi Mhaga, Radebe’s spokesper-

son, said the department did not “halt” the

campaign, as Carlisle alleges.“There are measures which determine

that the information supplied be thoroughlyscrutinised in consultation with the Depart-ment of Transport, and that it does not in-clude cases which could be reviewed or ap-pealed,” Mhaga said.The department’s duty is to supply the

names and details of the penalty “which weare doing”.People’s Post took to the streets to hear

what readers thought of the campaign.V Share your views by SMSing the word “Post” fol-lowed by your message to 32516. SMSes cost R1.

TARQUIN DU PLESSIS says the initiative acts asa deterrent. “Government also needs to think ofharsher sentences. By driving, drunk people areputting other lives at risk too.”

ANTON ODENDAAL says the campaign shows thepotential. “If people see names in the newspaper,they’ll fear being next. But there are other crimes,like corruption, which need more attention.”

NASEEMA HOOSAIN says the campaign has thepotential to attract negative attention. “The listcould become like a legends list where peoplewould want their names to appear.”

TSHOLOFELO MOLAWA remains sceptical anddoesn’t think the list changes anything. “Becausesomeone’s name is on a list does not mean it willstop them from drinking and driving.”

Booze clash in courtCARRYN-ANN NEL

Allow the sale of liquor on Sundays and af-ter 18:00 on week nights.This is the plea of the Mitchell’s Plain

Liquor Traders Association court applica-tion against the constitutionality of thenew City of Cape Town Liquor Bylaw.The Association claims certain sections

of theWestern Cape Liquor Act are uncon-stitutional. It says the Act does not createthe framework for municipalities to deter-mine the trading days or hours of liquortrading.The organisation also wants to have cer-

tain articles of the City’s bylaw to be de-clared unconstitutional.The bylaw currently regulates liquor

trading hours from Monday to Saturdaybetween 09:00 and 18:00.The Association lodged the lawsuit

against AlanWinde, provincialminister offinance, economic development and tour-ism, the Western Cape Liquor Board, pre-mier Helen Zille and the City.

In a statement businessman and chair-person of theMitchell’s Plain Liquor Trad-ers Association, Elton Oosthuizen, saysthe organisation was formed to eradicatethe illegal trading of liquor and to reducealcohol abuse.Members of the Association are from

Mitchell’s Plain, Mamre, Atlantis, Bonte-heuwel, Bridgetown and Lotus River.In court documents, Oosthuizen states

that he has now doubt in the fact thatWinde has an authoritative role in ensur-ing that rules and regulations of the indus-try are met and adhered to.However, he saysmunicipalities should,

according to the Act, have the right to de-termine the trading times and days beforeprovincial government.The respondents are opposing the law-

suit and must still hand in their court ap-plication.The case has been postponed to Wednes-

day 9 October.V Share your views. Starting with the word “Post”send your message to 32516. SMSes cost R1.

Be on alert for conman electricianTAURIQ HASSEN

The Retreat community is in shock afterbeing conned by a man claiming to be anaccredited electrician.The conman has allegedly already sto-

len digital cameras, jewellery and cash.Retreat resident Anna Adams crossed

pathswith the con artistwhen she neededto haver her stove repaired. She was alsopromised a timer would be installed onher geyser. “Thismancame intomyhomeand said he was sent by the neighbour torepair the broken items. What threw meoff is that he knew everybody’s names soperfectly, as if he had beenworking in thecommunity for years,” she says.Adams was led to believe the man was

desperate for work and promised to findhim more jobs in the neighbourhood.Hemade offwith a camera, a goldwatch

and ring from her home.She says: “This man has already

conned somanypeople, butnobody seemsto have opened a case or report thematterto police. I think they fear he might comeback, as we know he is still operating inthe community.”Another resident, who asked not to be

named, was not home at the time whenthe man informed his wife that he hadbeen sent to fix their geyser.The elderly woman allowed him into

their home. He left 10 minutes later,claiming to have repaired the geyser.Whenher husband camehome, hiswife

told him the electrician had been there tofix their geyser.The husband says: “She said the man

knew where I worked and he knew myname and surname. He told her I said hehas to fix the geyser. He also told her I had

already paid him for the job and that sheneed not worry.”After inspecting the house, the couple

found that a cellphone, a wallet contain-ing R500, jewellery and some kitchen ap-pliances had been stolen.“I was so angry at this man. I couldn’t

open a case, because I have no evidenceto prove we have been robbed. He was inand out in 10 minutes and my wife couldnot even remember how he looked,” hesays, fuming. “Peoplemust justwatch outand using the newspaper is the best wayto inform the public.”People’s Postheard that six other people

have already come across the conman,who is nowbelieved to be operating in theLotus River and Grassy Park areas.V If you come across the con artist, immediatelycontact Steenberg Police on (021) 702 9000 orGrassy Park Police on (021) 700 3900.

REPAIRS HALTED: THEN RESTARTED

Readers dodge for cover at libraryTAURIQ HASSEN

Everyone knows books andwater don’t go together.But bookworms at theRe-

treat Library are forced to dodgerain drops as heavy rains overthe last fewweeks caused result-ed in several leakages.Repairs were done to the roof

of the library in Concert Boule-vard. However, only one halfwas completed before contrac-tors packed up their tools andleft.Ward councillor Jan Burger

was not impressed.He explains that after follow-

ing up on complaints from thecommunity, it was discoveredthat repairs could not be madeto the remainder of the roof dueto budget constraints.“This is not good enough. My

concern is that if the roof is leftin a damaged state, the booksand the floor will be damaged,”Burger says.He immediately requested

that thematter be looked intobe-fore further damage is incurred.“If this problem is not attend-

ed to, I am worried that moremoney will have to be spent toreplace books and repair thedamaged floors,” Burger adds.Meanwhile, library users are

dodging the leakswhile trying toget their favourite reads.Owen Simons, a frequent visi-

tor to the library, says he is “dis-

gusted at the massive leaking”.“The roof is leaking buckets.

The staff is scuttling about plac-ing bins, buckets and papers onwindow sills, the counter and oncomputers. The two women atthe library are really doing theirbest,” he says.Simons says the library users

were informed that renovationwould be done to the roof andthat it would take about threeweeks to complete. However,contractors were seen leavingthe library only two weeks afterstarting the renovations.Thanks to the efforts of staff,

there were no evident signs ofwater damage at the library.But library manager Sharon

Adams says staff are waiting todetermine if minor repairs tothe roof have worked.“There are still a few spots

that are leaking. The contrac-tors have returned, but we stillhave problems. We can onlywait until it rains again to get abetter idea of the extent of theproblems,” she says.There would be no leaks or

similar problems at libraries inmore affluent areas, saysAnthea Bloemhof, also a regularlibrary user.“I don’t understand how prob-

lems such as these can persist.In amore fancy area this kind ofproblemwouldhave been solvedin a matter of hours,” Bloemhofsays.

STOP AND SEARCH: Muizenberg police, City of Cape Town’ s Traffic Services and Metro Police held a combinedoperation in Vrygrond on Tuesday 11 June. The operation was launched as a result of a possible threat of taxiconflict in the Vrygrond-Capricorn areas. During the roadblock in Vrygrond Avenue, a total of 63 vehicles and 220passengers were stopped and searched. Also, 11 fines totalling R4700 were issued. Three minibus taxis wereimpounded for not having the necessary paperwork and the drivers were arrested for operating illegally. A licensed.45 calibre pistol seized from a taxi driver was sent for ballistic testing. Police also did a pamphlet drive in whichthey discouraged the buying of stolen goods and alerted the public to the dangers of drug and alcohol abuse. Thestation commander of Muizenberg Police, Colonel Dorothy Xesha, stated that these operations are ongoing andthat law enforcement agencies will not hesitate to clamp down on illegal taxi operators.

STEENBERG: NIGHT SCHOOL GIVES THEM A FUTURE

Centre a lifeline for pupilsTAURIQ HASSEN

For just over 44 years, the SteenbergCommunity Learning Centre (CLC) hasbeen providing pupils with an opportu-

nity to take a second bite out of life throughits night school.

The school has faced anumber of challeng-es including drop-outs due to inadequatefunding, pupils being pressured by manag-ers, violence in various areas and transporthiccups.

Even so, registration is open for the nightschool, which runs from Monday 5 Augustthe end of June next year.

Sammy Williams, principal of the CLC,says there was a decrease in the number ofpupils dropping out of the school year.

“We’ve been able to provide pupils with asecond chance in life. We noticed a drop lastyear because pupils realised the importanceof getting a matric certificate,” he says.

The night school serves the communitiesof, among others, Retreat, Lavender Hill,Seawinds, Capricorn, Coniston andSheridon parks, Plumstead, Wynberg,Ocean View and even as far as Strandfon-tein.

A total of 222 pupils registered for the finalexamination this year, and in the last fiveyears more than 2150 pupils passed matric.

“In our current situation with gang vio-lence in the areas, unemployment and ac-tion against service delivery, we as the CLCrender a most valuable service to the com-munity,” Williams says.

In recent times, the provincial Depart-ment of Education had stopped funding theGrade 10 and 12 courses, but the CLC man-aged to keep the school doors open throughfees and fundraising activities.

The subjects are English, Afrikaans, Biol-ogy, Accounting, Business Economics,Mathematics, History, Biblical Studies, In-troduction to Criminology and SA CriminalLaw. From August, the CLC plans to intro-duce Travel and Tourism for the first time.

Former CLC pupil Sheldon Adams, fromWynberg, is in the process of obtaining anIT specialist qualification from UWC.

“I was forced to drop out of school becauseof family troubles and I immediately set outlooking for a job. It was hard, because every-where I went, they kept asking for a matric

certificate,” he says.“I landed up not getting a job and knew

then how important my matric is.”Adams had heard from a friend about the

Steenberg CLC and their successful passrate.

“I made this about me and I knew I am go-ing to have to be committed. There were lotsof things happening at the same time in mylife, but I made my matric the most impor-tant thing,” he says.

Anyone interested in completing theirmatric can register at Steenberg HighSchool on Mondays or Thursdays between18:00 and 21:00.

The registration fees is R350 and R300 persubject. Registration closes on Friday 20September.

South Africans had a long weekend thanks to Youth Dayfalling on Sunday.The day commemorates the 37th anniversary of the

Soweto uprising on 16 June.In 1975, protests started inAfrican schools after a direc-

tive from the thenBantuEducationDepartment thatAfri-kaans be used on an equal basis to English as a mediumof instruction in secondary schools, says the State web-site.It says the issue was “not so much the Afrikaans as the

whole system of Bantu education”. This was “character-ised by separate schools and universities, poor facilities,overcrowded classrooms and inadequately trained teach-ers”.A year later saw more than 20 000 pupils from Soweto

beginning a protest march. The protests quickly flaredthroughout the country in an already politically volatileSouth Africa. This was a nation on fire and the youth car-ried the flame of change towards a politically indiscrimi-nate dispensation. In clashes with the police and in theensuing violence over the following weeks, about 700 peo-ple – mostly youths – were killed and property destroyed.The image of a dying Hector Pietersen being carried to

safety by a fellow-pupil will remain burnished in theminds of SouthAfricanswhochoose to remember theulti-mate price many paid. Photographer Sam Nzima wasquotedas sayinghe“sawachild falling”. “Undera showerof bullets I rushed forward andwent for the picture,” Nzi-ma said, adding later “the police were ordered to shoot”.This year’s theme is “working together for youth devel-

opment and a drug-free South Africa”.Fastforward to today and the battle has shifted into a

social sphere in which other youths may be trapped be-hind bars of their own making. Again, guns were in-volved.A case in point: the fatal shooting of Spes Bona High’s

Glenrico Martin for which two teenagers were charged.Guns and youths – what a frightening and despairing

combination.

Don’t be fooled by election promisesIt is that time of the year when the City OfCape, with the help of the sheriff of theWyn-berg Court, pounds on the doors of rentalstock homes in Lavender Hill.It is a little too late, because the City has

allowed our people to not pay rent and otherbills as they were promised free housingduring previous election drives.I am inundated with complaints from ten-

antswhohave received letters fromthe sher-iff. This has brought about fear.Some people have gone into depression,

have become sick and have had nervous at-tacks.I went to the housing office for an appoint-

ment and was amazed to see how many peo-plewerewaiting to face thewrathof theCity.Some of them did not know what to expect.Community organisations are not clued

up on how to assist these struggling resi-dents. They were sent from pillar to post for

advice.I assisted at least 20 tenants one day. I was

happy to help.The people who initiate these court ordersare the same ones you see – and whom ourpeople will again listen to – during electiondrives for next year’s general elections.Do not fall for empty promises because

they think nothing of evicting our grand-mothers and parents from the homes whichshould have been ours.You do not see the fat cats now, but come

election time they are all over you andmakeyour time their time.Be warned. What have we gained since

1994?Our youth are unemployed and our chil-

dren pay for education. If we do not pay wa-ter it is suspended. If we don’t pay rent weface evictions. Enough is enough.Clive Jacobs, Lavender Hill

Top service from tax peopleHats off to theCapeTownSouthAfricanRev-enue Services (Sars) office for swift and ster-ling service rendered during the processingof my annual income tax return.My heart leapt with trepidation when I re-

ceived an SMS from Sars stating that an out-standing payment was due from me, andpayable urgently!Telephoning the call centre proved futile

when the automated voiced informed methat I was 181st in the queue and promptedme to make my way to the local Sars office.The Cape Town Sars office was jam-

packed resembling a township day hospital

when I arrived aroundmidday, and the onlyfriendly faces were the security guards.The clerk at the enquiries desk warmed to

my friendly chatter, and directed me to the“fast lane”.Within 10 minutes amiable tax consultant

Sisanda Kuse handed me a printout whichI used to effect an EFT payment.Thank you, Sars for the expedient service.

It was a pleasure making the payment duewithout wasting precious time.I pray that my tax payment is put to good

use within the fiscus.Mark Kleinschmidt, Email

Give poor organisations office spaceIt was with dismay that I saw the advertise-ment in People’s Post (28 May) that DDP willbe based at Shawco.I am appalled at City of Cape Town offi-

cials. DDP is a well-funded organisationwith one principal funder: Konrad Adenau-er Stiftung (KAS).The same funder that funds quite a few

Democratic Alliance events.No coincidence that DDP should get an of-

fice or the building with a budget of morethan R5m – and yet you expect us taxpayersto subsidise them.What about the many poor organisations

that struggle to find office space and yougive offices to people with offices in Durban,Cape Town and Johannesburg?I am not fooled. There is something not

right here!Anon, Email

Your SMSes. Your report “Pedestrians risk lives forshortcut” refers. I am a pensioner. It goeswithout saying that I do not have money forpetrol or taxi fare, so I walk to Pick n Payor Blue RouteMall where I benefit from bet-ter prices. I use the crossing you refer to. Us-ing the recognised crossing further up FloraRoad, towards Steenberg, is not an option.It is just too far for a 71-year-old like me. Imeet many pensioners on that route everyweek. There are many criminals watchingpedestrians cross the tracks at the bridgesover the station. A shooting incident oc-curred at the station over the Easter week-end. Criminals even shoot dice in full viewof the Railway Police at the station.With theabove inmind, do you still believe the cross-ing you refer to should be closed? I do notthink so. It would be better to build a bridgeover the tracks on the southern boundary ofAirton Timbers.

Broadway favourite hits the Mother CityBroadway favourite hits the Mother CityTARREN-LEE HABELGAARN

The true-life story of Frankie Valli andthe Four Seasons will be brought to lifein an energising musical at Artscape

this month.Direct from it’s successful seasons in Sin-

gapore and Johannesburg, the multi-awardwinning Broadway musical Jersey Boysopens at Artscape tomorrow.

The show tells the story of Frankie Valliand the other members of the Four Seasons– Bob Gaudio, Tommy De Vito and Nick Mas-si.

The group dominated charts in the 1960sand became one of the greatest successes inpop music history, selling 175 millionrecords globally before they turned 30.

The 19 member South African cast in-cludes Emmanuel Castis, Kirsten Murphy-Rossiter, Jaco van Rensburg, Duane Alexan-der and Stephen Jubber.

Since their first curtain call on South Afri-can soil, audiences have responded withenormous enthusiasm.

“Being able to be part of this productionis a dream come true. Performing in theatrehas always been in my blood and I did manymusicals at school,” says Emmanuel Castiswho plays bass vocalist Nick Massi.

He describes Jersey Boys as not being atypical musical.

“Usually in musicals the story is drivenby the music, but with Jersey Boys the story

and emotions of where they are in theirlives, drives the music,” he says.

The well-known soapie actor, says al-though he loves acting on television, theatrehas always been apart of him.

“I’ve always been going for theatre audi-tions, but have been waiting for the perfectrole,” Castis adds.

He says the show has a great cast who havereally embraced the story of this iconicgroup.

“This rock band became each others fami-ly and having toured and lived together weare also like one big family.”

“I realised early that this was a very spe-cial story and group, I love it,” says Castis.

The show features popular hits of the bandsuch as Sherry, Big Girls Don’t Cry, Can’tTake My Eyes Off You and My Eyes AdoredYou.

Although the names of these and othersongs in the show might not be easily recog-nised by many, the tunes become more fa-miliar as the captivating tale of the four mu-sicians unfolds and the audience can beheard singing along.

Castis says they have received an incredi-ble reaction from audiences who have seenthe show and he looks forward to performingin Istanbul, Turkey, after Cape Town.

“It’s all about telling the incredible storyof normal people. We want people to walk outwith a smile on their faces and a smile ontheir heart,” he adds.

Driven to achieve goalsLIAM MOSES

The dusty streets of Cape Town’s infor-mal settlements and townships havelong provided football with some its

greatest players.If you possess enough talent and determi-

nation, and manage to avoid the pitfalls ofdrugs and gangsterism, football can provideyouth with a better life.However, for most youngsters the sport is

little more than a hobby or a pastime theirparents hope will keep them away from so-cial ills.But since 2003, a Schaapkraal-based organ-

isation has been using the sport to help thecity’s poor, homeless and troubled to bettertheir lives without handing them profession-al contracts.Each year, South African Homeless Street

Soccer and registered NGO Oasis, gives agroup of people the chance to travel to andtake part in the Homeless World Cup.Clifford Marthinus, Oasis founder, says

the point of competing in the tournament isnot to simply give the players the chance totravel to a foreign country, but to openpartic-ipants’ minds to their full potential.“What we hope is that people can realise

that these opportunities are possible forthem. They might live in an informal settle-ment, but they can also better their lives. It’sup to them to take hold of their lives,” saysMarthinus.“We can’t guarantee them that their lives

are going to change. But we can guaranteethat this will make an impact on their lives.They need to use this opportunity to find outhow to make it work and count for them.”TheHomelessWorldCup is an internation-

al organisation based in Scotland and has or-ganised the tournament of the same nameevery year since 2003.This tournament is hosted in a different

country annually and can feature up to 70teams.Last year, the tournament was hosted in

Brazil and this year it will take place inPoznan, Poland, from Saturday 10 to Sunday18 August.

In order to take part in the tournamentplayersmust go through a series of trials andprove toOasis theyare seriousabout improv-ing their lives, that theywill benefit from theprogramme and that they intend to give backto their communities.Players do not have to be homeless in the

traditional sense in order to take part in thetournament, but have to be linked to anNGOin some way.Marthinus says the point of this is to en-

sure that the players continue to receive sup-port and guidance once they return from thetournament.One of the players who will be taking part

this year is centreback Ebrahim Abrahamsfrom The Kraal, an informal settlement inBo-Kaap.“I had a friendwhowas in this programme

and went with the team to Brazil last year.He was the goalkeeper and he told us aboutthe programme,” he says“I grew up struggling so I don’t want my

child to go through life the same way I did.That’s all that I want. I just want to help allthe children who are living on streets rightnow.”Before departing for the Homeless World

Cup, Abrahams and his teammates will goaway on a two week-long camping trip totrain for the tournament and also undergocounselling.Marthinus says although many people are

successful in bettering their lives, some play-ers also fail and fall back into drug abuse orcrime.Oasis also runs Oasis FC, a football club

which is affiliated to the South Peninsula Lo-cal Football Association and has over 150players.The club has teams in every age group

fromunder-9 to under-19 and does not chargeany of the players membership fees as longas they take part in the organisation’s lifeskills programmes.Oasis also aims to start a street soccer pro-

gramme involving 20 different areas aroundCapeTown.For informationabout theHome-less World Cup contact Oasis on 0 (021) 7046815.

The People’s Team brace for play-offsLIAM MOSES

Engen Santos FC will face two season-defin-ing moments this week when they take onMpumalanga Black Aces and Chippa Unitedin the Premier Soccer League (PSL) promo-tion/relegation play-offs.The People’s Team did well to fight their

way back into contention for promotion af-ter a disastrous start in the National FirstDivision (NFD).But their hard work could all be in vain

if they fail to beat Aces and Chippa in thetwohomegames onThursday 20 andSunday23 June.Head coach Ian Palmer admits both

matches will be crucial, but says a loss willnot be the death of his side’s promotion

hopes.“I don’t think this game is do or die, be-

cause we still have to play Chippa soon afterthat. If we lose it won’t be good and it willbe huge setback,” he says.“But we are thinking about that. We are

going full-out to get one over Aces and putus in thedriving seat.Aces are in thedrivingseat, because they are the only team with awin. The playing field will be levelled as wewill be at home.”Santos had an undesirable start to the

play-offs last month when their first match,away to Chippa, finished in a goalless draw.Chippa went on to lose 1-0 to Aces in the

second play-off match.The Mpumalanga side now top the stand-

ings aheadof their clash against Santos,whohave not hadmuch success againstAces thisseason.But Palmerwill hope recent form and past

results are not an indicator of what Thurs-day’s result will be.The People’s Team drew 0-0 against Aces

in their last encounter in Mpumalanga inApril, while Aces beat Santos 1-0 at AthloneStadium in the season opener last October.Palmer says the fixtures has not been kind

to his side, but he is confident his troopswillrecover before their Cape derby against

Philippi’s Chippa.“Aces are blessed because all their games

are spaced widely. After the match againstis, they have six days before they play again.The draw actually favours them,” saysPalmer.“Chippa also play us and then have to go

to Aces three days later. It’s about howquickly you recover.We have the Sports Sci-ence Institute of South Africa on our side tohelp us regenerate for the next game.”Santos’ fixture against Aces will kick-off

at Cape Town Stadium at 19:30 on Thursday20 June.Chippa United will host Aces on Wednes-

day 26 June and the final fixture of the play-offs will see Santos travel to Mpumalanga toface Aces on Saturday 29 June.

Tight encounter in derbyLIAM MOSES

Division One stragglers HamediehsRFC pulled of a surprise, against-the-odds victory over rivals Violets at

Chucker Road in Lansdowne on Saturday.Violets and Hamediehs went into the

game in second last and first on the tablerespectively, but the gulf in formandquali-ty had little effect on the result.Despite receiving five yellow cards, con-

ceding the only try and coming in a distantsecond in the possession stakes, Hame-diehs won 15-11.Head coach Zain Daniels was surprised

at the victory. “The first half performance

was solid, but we should have lost it in thesecondhalf.Wemade toomany elementaryerrors,” says Daniels.“If they hadwon, Iwouldn’t have felt bad

as we made so many mistakes – our ill-dis-cipline cost us. The first-round match wasclose as well; we should have won that oneat the death.When old rivals play each oth-er, it is always tight.”Daniels describes his team’s lack of ap-

preciation for the rule book was “patheticand poor”.“I don’t blame the referee. It was clearly

our fault. Wewere lucky as one of our guysshould have been red carded. At half-timeI asked them to be more disciplined, as ill-

discipline would cost us the game.”The numerical disadvantage and high

error count meant that Hamediehs spentmost of the game defending, but Daniels’team should be credited for putting theirbodies on the line to guard every centime-tre of the sodden Chukker Road turf.The away side were determined to play

their rugby in the opposition half and theyheaped pressure onViolets throughout thegame, with well-placed tactical kicks.Although Hamediehs attempted to run

the ball when in possession in the opposi-tion half, their success was a direct resultof staunch, smash-mouth defence thatforced the opposition to make errors.

Hamediehs flyhalf Abdul Raqieb Burdi-en kicked five penalties for his side’s 15points, while his opposite number, DenverScheepers, scored two penalties and propSaleigh Schroeder visited behind the try-line for Violets.The loss is Violets’ third in ten games

this season and will cut down their lead atthe top of the table. The Lansdowne clubwill look to get their title charge back ontrack on Saturday 22 June, when Strand’sRaithby Universals visits Chukker Road.Hamediehs, who have now won three

and lost seven matches, will hope to keeptheir late-season revival going against La-gunya away from home.
