'Aid· essential for democracy' Attempt to steal pens NAMIBIA signed the European
CommunitY's Lome IV aid treaty yesterday but warned that without more help its fledgling democracy could be at risk
"If our example of a democratic mUltiparty system is going to work then we need assistance," Prinie Minister Hage Geingob said at the signing ceremony in Brussels.
-'If the people who were left outside the mainstream of the economy accept our reconciliation they will only do it for a short period .. . and then there will be uprising," he said.
"With independence on March 21 this year, our newly independent state faced three challenges: reactivating our depressed economy, reducing income disparities and restraining and redirecting public expenditure, ' , the Prime Minister said. He added that everything possible was being done to realise these objectives.

Walvis Bay tops agenda for 1991·
WILLIAM HEUVA
\ NEGOTIATIONS between Namibia's Foreign Affairs Ministry and the De " Kierk government over the Walvis Bay issue would start in the new year, Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs.NetumboNdaitwah told The Namibian yesterday.
Ndaitwah said the Ministery's approach towardsthe"issue would be guided by the constitution, which made.it clear that the enclave was part and parcel of the country.
However, she added, everything possible would be done to "keep confrontation out of negotiations".
As far as the Ministry's plans for the new year were concerned, Ndaitwah said the country would start playing its role in promoting international peace and security ,while officials in foreign missions would be asked to work hard in getting assistance for development projects for
the country. She added that the officials would
further be encouraged to use their knowledge and diplomatic skills in allowing the' country to benefit from all possible international resources. " They have to infuence the international community in securing a fair distribution of world resources, ,. she explained.
In general. the Ministry would in the new year follow up with what had been started in the past eight months since independence. There would be another' 'crash course" for officials both at home and abroad in the new year.
Presently the Ministry is experiencing problems of inexperience, lack of.personnel and lack of finance and ~ace, according to Ndaitwah.
Thming to .foreign policy she said it was affected by the internal policy of the country, which was essentially one of reconciliation. It was fiirther

Assembly accepts that a new South ' Africa is on the way. It is also clear that certain South African organizations have failed in attempts to get a resolution passed condemning South Africa, " it said.
For the first time the resolution dropped language of "condemn",
and "demand" ,and' stopped referring to the current South African government as a "regime".
Diplomats said it reflected a balanced approach, appreciating the positive' political steps by the South African government in reforming the system, but also maintaining pressure to abolish the ~partheid system of racial discrimination.
Insurance offered for Nigerian journalists
LAGOS. Nigeria: A private Nigerian company is offering to insure journalists of this West African nation's feisty PR:SS industry against' 'hazards of the profession", including detention.
The insurance company said in a statement it would pay 100 naira (14 dollars) a day to insured reporters for the period ·of their detention or a maximum of 100 days.
Death or disability suffered in the cause of reporting duties, including -detention, would draw a lump sum of 30 000 naira (4 285 dollars), it said.
The company is underwriting any interested joumalists free of charge for the first year, after which it will decide on the amount of premiums, the statement said. .
Nigerians publish scores of newspapers and magazines and are proud that their media is one of the freest in Africa. However, the military government often detains reporters and editors, sometimes holding them for months without charge. '
gUided by the coostitution which placed the country in th~ league of the Nonaligned Movement.
And, finally, Namibia would strive for the maintenance of pe.ace and security internationally.
Within this framework Namibia encouraged peaceful negotiations -for instance, to end apartheid and between the ANC and -the De Klerk government in South Africa; and encouraged what the Deputy Minister called "useful negotiations" in Angola and Mozambique. -
The Ministry had set up joint commissions between Namibia and BotsWana, Zambia and Angola, which would, among other things, monitor events which could threaten peace and security between the countries.
Ndaitwah said the Ministry had established diplomatic ties with more
than 60 countries, while about 35 "'Countries had presented theircreden
tials to the S~ate President. Since its inception the Ministry
has also signed 45 bilateral and . multilateral agreements, mainly in the field of e~ucation, health, agriculture and technical assistance.
N daitwah said it had not been easy to establish the Ministry since they had to start from scratch. For this reason the past eight months had been spent in setting up the Ministry and taking the country out of its past international isolation.
In conclusion, she pointed out that Namibia is today a member of the Non-aligned Movement, the UN, OAU, SAOCC, Commonwealth, IMP" SA Customs Union and the Africa Bank.

Getting kids off stre~ts ' . .
a 'priority' for Namibia THE Namibian government's rlrst priority (or the immediate future must be to get the children off the streets, President Nujoma said yesterday in a speech marking the official launch o( Unicers report on the State ofthe World's Children,
Ina video-recordedspcech, shown at a Unicef function in a local hotel, Nujoma addressed the nation 00. the state of the Namibian children and the intentions of the government to rectify their plight.
Nujoma pointed out th~ colonial legacies, saying that the infant mortality rate in the country was. in the range of 79-85 deaths per 1 000 and
, the under five mortality was excessive at 90-110 deaths per 1 000, while the country had a Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per capita of US$1050.
Nujoma also strongly criticised the lack of universal child immunisation in Nanubia beforeindependence, while countries less forttmRte in being endowed with natural resources than. Namibia could afford and achieve it.
On. the education front, Nujoma said of the 265 000 l l-year-oIds eligible for school each year, 28 per cent or 93 700 were deprived of access to any schooling whatsoever, and of those who do emoll, only 37 per cent completed primary school. In contra~t, he said " in the white community ·of our country, enrolment and continuation are almost universal' '.
The contradictions of social md economic deprivation in the Namibian context also mmifested itself in the employment sector.
In relation to the GDP, the employment level in Namibia is unac
. ceptably high while "our incomes are among the most sbw in the world" , Nujoma stressed.
The practices of institution.alised racism md deprivation, which left the majority of the Namibim society in destitution, .hunger md poverty, along with lack of proper social infrastructure and the de stabilisation of, the family, forced mmy of the children onto the streets. This had become their habitat md their source of income through beggiD.g.
" Today they are the most neglected meIllbers' of our society with no bright future in sight unless we all pool our resources together to get them off the streets. "
In m effort to rectify the plight of the chilihen the Namibian government has undertaken concrete actiOllS md devetoped md implemented concrete programmes for the survival, protection md development of the Nanuoian children, Nujoma said.
Besides policies and programmes that will provide employment md foster job opportunities, the government also pursued policies md programmes within. the agricultural sector that not only enhanced national food security, but would also ensure household food security for the poor members of this society . .
On. the medical side, the government concentrated on maternal md child care, preventive medical care md the provision of accessible ..:linics for the rural population as well as
. the ration.alisatiQll md maintanance of standards in hospitals in the urbm areas, Nujoma stressed .
The national immunisation drive, the results of which will be announced
AN 82mm M48high explosive mortar bomb, made h. Yugoslavia. " The Namibian authorities have launched a massive explosives sweep countrywide (see story, page,4) as well as a public awareness campaign. Basically all mortar bombs • 60m,m, 81mm, 82mm and 120mm, look the same or very similar. The public have been urged not to touch these or similar objects.
STANLEY KATZAO I today, was an~xample of the government's commitment in this respect.
As far as education was concerned, the government has embarked 00. a policy of "education for all". The primary aim of it was, according to President Nujoma, to provide equal
access 'to education md a wriform _ quality of schooling to all Namibim children as from the beginning of 1991.
In conclusion Nujoma said his government was willing to do its part in <""reful planning imd the implementation of its policies to realise these goals, not only in the interest of the Nanuoian children, but in the interests of all Namibians.
The ceremony was attended by members of the diplomatic corps as well as international agencies and was presided over by the Minister of National Health, Dr Nicky Iyambo, who remarked that the day was an important one for all the children of
. the world. "Namibia is not isolated md forms part of the global plight of children, " he added.

EDUCATION Minister Nahas Angula said yesterday his Ministry had been engaged in a process of restructuring the whole educatiOn system (or the past eight months.
Approached for comment on the achievements md challenges at his Ministry, Angu1a added that the "most top" officials in his Ministry had been appointed and were waiting for the Public Service Commission to approve the appointments.
The traditional budget, according to Angula, inhibited the implemen
. tation of necessary reforms by the
Presently the Ministry was working on the middle and regional structures. These structures will be based on the regions' md not on ethnic boundaries, according to the Minis-ter. .
Angula went on to say his Ministry was "underpressure' :1 for the colonial curriculum was inappropriate md they dicfu't know where to start. Howevel', littempti wel;e 'made and chmge irl the ~urri~u1um took place at the juniOl'-S~dary level.
Asked about challenges facing the Ministry in the 1lC!,,),C!ll, he said that " -included J~.iroVi~on ;~f t~~hin.g ;. md leaming materials, the monitor- . ing system which would require professional people to monitor the reform process at schools and, fin.ally, how to respond to teachers' needs.
The Ministry would also face a challenge at the primary school level as 7.0 per cent of Namibia's school population is at this level md as well as accommodating the recen.t returned
Ministry. ' .
On. the medium of instruction Angula said it was his hope that the teachers at secondary level should be able to teach in English. He. added that measures would also be introduced in the new year to help teachers with English. These measures included a back-up system at schools, whereby teachers with proficiency in English will help others; the provi- . sion of teacher reference books; educational broadcasts for teachers which will be int~duced early in the
new year; md distance education for teachers. ,
On examination Angula said the colonial system tested ' 'what people don't know' , ill order t~ , 'weed them out ' , rather thm testing the ability of the pupils to learn. This system will be done away with in the new year. He added that he had a " big report" 00. examinations from Cambridge which his Ministry was studying at the moment.
Angula said Std 10 pupils would continue to be examined by the Cape education authorities. As for the standard eights, Angula said he did not like the idea proposed by teachers' organisations and other groups that they should be examined by schools
. on their own. He felt that a central authority should be involved.

Community help guard game
ROSSING support for the community game guard system continues~ Pictured above, an expedition was made to the north-western region to distribute uniforms and equipment to the game guards that carry out their patrols in the remote area. The community game guard system was evolved and set up with the assistance of local community ieaders who themselves appoint respected and capable men to act as gUardians of the game in the areas which they know so well. In exchange for their services, the game guards receive a salary, rations and a uniform which are distributed from time to time by Rossing Uranium Limited and the conservation officials who work in that area. On this particular trip, the British High Commissioner, Francis Richards and his wife Gill, accompanied Garth Owen-Smith to get f"Irst-hand knowledge of how the system operates. They had the chance to speak to Ezekia Kuvare and his wife Francma and to hear their views·on what benefits they derive from being involved with wildlife conservation. .
1HE Namibian Polire are look-ing for this man, Andreas Nowaseb (above), who went missing on November 25 this year.
Nowaseb, a 30-year-old man from Windhoek, was last seen at Tsumeb on his way to Ovambo.

US Peace Corps in the far north
ANKAMA S CHIEF
A TEAM of17 US Peace Corps and one Swedish woman educationist are currently in Ovambo and are based at the Ongwediva Teachers' Training Centre. Speaking to The Namibian this week, members of the team expressed their willingness to assist the Namibians in matters related to education. The group consists of teachers in, among others, mathematics, science and English. Although these' volunteer teachers are targeting their assistance at primary education, they have no objection with helping at the secondary level, if they are asked to. Welcoming the team, school inspector E Atshipara outlined points to help direct these teachers in the tough job that faces them. He said it needed a lot of commitment and also required that the volunteers acquaint themselves with the environment in which they would be working. In an address, 'Language, Tradition, Culture and , Belief', Atshipara explained that while Namibia is a multicultural society, it did not automatically imply problems. Rather it made Namibia a nation rich in cultures, languages, and traditions. "Coming to our country at this time is something praiseworthy because you bring us your assistance. in the field of education at a time when we are in the process oflaying a foundation for our hardwon independence," he said. After questions and discussions, the inspector and co-ordinator of the Inservice Training Centre, A Amushila, promised the volunteer teachers he would be prepared to help them in any way possible.
Major explosives operation THE Namibian Police in co-operation with various other Ministries, including the Ministries of Information, Defence and Works, Transport and Communication, last week launched an ~xplosives sweeping operation throughout the entire country.
According to police chief of public relations and liaison, Inspector Werner Gevers, the operation has become a
necessity , due to 'the ending of the war.
This particularly applied to Na-_ mibia' s northem regions, where many left-over war materials are still being reported as lying around, posing potential injury and death hazards.
The project wiJl be implemented in different stages and will be aimed at public awareness as well as the actual defusing and destruction o·f
explosives. Members of the public are warned
not to tamper with such explosives or strange-looking devices as they could cause serious injuries or death .
Instead, people are asked to report every explosive or similar objects to the nearest police station.
The place where the strange object . is found must be marked and then
shown to the police.

A ,difficult year for agriculture Minister Gert Hanekom reviews_ his Ministry's activities
IN AN END-of-the-year review of his Ministry's activities Minister of Agriculture Gert Hanekom described 1990 as one of the most difficult years in a long tiI?e for agriculture. .
He said large areas of the country had suffered from drought and had as a result been declared drought-stricken.
Up to date the government had . spent approximately R6 million on . drought relief assistance to farmers in the affected areas.
Hanekom expressed the hope that the new year would bring good rains, especially in those areas that were · presently suffering severe drought conditions.
Karakul pelts during the past year experienced an all-time low and the government realised that at present price levels it was uneconomical to farm with kaflikul pelts.
Bec1\use. of the iinportance of the . industry to the country, however, the
govemment was domg everything in its power to sustain the industry. It had, for example, contributed R3 million to assist the karakul industry through this difficult period.
Hanekom said it was expected till!t in the new year karakul prices would pick up again, and the December auction results already indicated that better days lie ahead for karakul farmers.
The marketing of cattle as well as small stock also experienced difficulties during the year and there was a general slump in prices, which was also aggravated by marketing pressure in the RSA.
Minister Hanekom srud as far as agronomy production was concemed he was thankful for a sizeable maize crop during 19?<J.
However, as far as wheat production was concemed the farmers in the Hardap area experienced severe losses · as a result of frost.
. He said he looked forward to in. creased prices in the cattle industry now that the Lome Convention was
in operation and as a result of the su.\Jstantial beef quota awarded to Namibia.
As regards mutton th~re was also the possibility that Namibia .might also be able to market mutton to EEC countries which would relieve pressure on the local and RSA markets.
Hanekom said the government intended to go ahead with its plans for the development of farming in the country, especially as far as crop production was concerned.
The establishment of a central · marketing system for vegetables and fruit produced in the couniry would receive priority during 1991.
The old Agricultural Credit Boards were not in operation any more and in the new year the govemrnent w9Uld give attention to anew credit system.
This would be operated through . the Land and Agricultural BanlCwith the aim of assisting developent in the country as well as assisting young emergent farmers in the country.
Hanekom felt that the cordon fence between the so-called commercial farming area and the communal fariming area was presently still animportant protection for · the markets in Namibia.
It was, however, of the utmost importance that this cordon fence be translocated and moved northwards as much as possible.
He said this would assist producers in the northern areas of the country to share in the freemarket system in Namibia.
'.'It is therefore expected that priority attention will be given to he translocation of the present cordon
. fence, but at the same time, to keep veterinary standards in the country as high as possible, .. he said .
Hanekom sai!1 as far as rural de-
velopment was concemed, 1990 was mainly spent in planning and devising strategy to be followed by the government to develop the large ' undeveloped areas in the country.
The aim here would be to change subsistence farmers as far as possible to commercial farmers.
Through the Agronomy Board a pilot marketing system for mahangu had been initiated and, if succesful, the production of mahangu in the northern part of the country would be encouraged as much as possible.
Minister Hanekom said the strategy of the Directorate of Rural Development . would be implemented during 1991, leading mainly to the increase in crop production in the communal areas.
This would involve establishing irrigation projects, central stations to render better extension services to these areas, impro:ving water supply and improving infrastructure in general.
Minister Hanekom said the new fisherie's regulations ~fthe 'goveIllCn1 physically started on 8 March 1990 when President Sam Nujoma cordially requested Icseaf countries to leave Namibian waters and to refrain from catching in Namibian waters.
Subsequent to this request the parliament of Namibia passed a law declaring a 200 nautical mile Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) off the coutry's west coast. .
He said the main object of the Department of Fisheries during the past year was the protection of the fishing resources of Namibia and the limiting of catches so that fishing resources ~ould recover.
According to Hanekom the biggest achievement of the Department of Fisheries during the past year could well have been the capture of five Spanish ships on 24 November that were fishing illegally in Namibian waters.
SEIZED AT SEA: Agriculture and Sea Fisheries Minister Gert Hanekom said the capture of five Spanish ships fishing iUegaly in Namibian waters could well have been the Fisheries' Department's biggest achievement this year. Photograph: Stanley Katzao.
In the new year the main aim of the department would be finalising a fishing policy and strategy for Na-mibia. .
This would include establIshing a
Namibian fishing industry and the protection and surveillance of the EEZ of the COl! ,t:v to ensure that this valuable resourct. was protected for the benefit of the country.

changes that could spell catastrophe Zealand committed themselves to at for hundreqs of millions of people. least freeze their levels of carbon
More than 130 nations issued a dioxide emissions. TheECisconsid-weak statement at the end of the ering an across-the-board energy tax conference on the need to combat that would include a specific tax on global warming. Scientists believe it the carbon content of fuels.
But the United States, the world's biggest polluter, refused in Gene~a to set similar targets.
Carbon dioxide is produced by everyday activities - in the burning of coal, oil, gas or wood - and Washington was clearly worried at the cost of curbing it.
Yet, barely a Week later President George Bush si~d into law a Clean Air Act'iUDied-at"making America's air safer to breathe'. "
It pr~yi<4:s for cle~r cars, power plants ,~~ !Uels~~ ~ould go sOme way tow.ariis ~ing~id rains drifting over no~asterp. sta~~s and
,Canada. "It's exact1y,$e oppo.sitite of what
happened on global,warming but Bush did make a promise-on acid rain and to his credit he delivered,': said Becker.
But the US :environmentalist had reservations about the bill, which should cut sulphur dioxide by 10 million tonnes by the year 2000. "It will help clear up acid rain but it won't eliminate other types ofpollution.'·
Aside from ener~' ,efficiency, scientists say global warming and air pollution can be checked by stopping the mass destruction of tropical for- , ests. Deforestation is second only to the burning of fossil fuels as the
, source of carbon dioxide. But the rate of deforestation rose
to 168 000 square kilometres in 1990 from 94 000 square kilometres' 10 years earlier, according to the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO). "On that issue I can't see any progress made," says Elliott, WWF's Tropical Forest Conservatiori Officer .
• "Ibe momentum is there on global warming and deforestation and it can only get worse if we don't do something about it, so we can't afford to give up," he added.
On a positive note, 1990 was a good year for whales, seals and thousands of endaQ.gered species living in wetlands around the world.
An international conference in the Netherlands last July kept a, fouryear ban on commercial wba1ing while a public outcry saved the lives of thousands of pup seals that were to be clubbed to death on South African beaches and turned into dog meat and aphrodisiacs.
And conservationists won pledges from governments at an international conference in Switzerland last June to keep millions of hectares of wetlands out of reach of industrialists and property developers. Wetlandsl
are home to countless species of birds; fish. and plants.
But Eastern Europe faces a tough struggle to clean up its air after decades of neglect under communist rule. "The only thing we can say about Eastern Europe is at least we know how bad the problems are," said Elliott. ' .

1990 -a year of oddities and daring stunts NEW YORK: Scientific oddities and daring stunts were among the' quirks the • world produced in 1990.
Weather, pranks and UFOs have been blamed for geometric impressions found in farmers' fields in Europe and the United States, and scientists this year launched a high-tech study aimed at solving the nagging mystery..,
Equipped with nearly $2 million worth of heat-seeking cameras and other sophisticated gear, US and other scientists in July began watching fields in England'. louth-west county of Wiltshire.' But so far, ~ti11 no explanation.
Circles up to 12 metres wide turned up on farms in Kansas and Missouri this year. One expert says some of the impressions have proven to be the doings of mischievous farmers or neighbors who would rather propagate stories , than irrigate crops., ' ,_
Dozens of startled California residents in' southern San, Diego County c.alled police one November night to report a -UFO that tunied" out to be a: blimp on its midden advertisirig voyage.
-In March, two Belgian air force F-16 . jet fighters saw on their radar screens
that a UFO 2o.·kilometres -away dived from about 3 000 to I 200 metres in two
seconds. At the same time, it increased its speed from 960 to 1 900 kilometres per hour.
. Belgian. have reported scores of sightings. In one case, the UFO turned out to be a ~erticallaser beam used by a discotheque to attract clients. But the air force sighting remains unexplained.
Equally a mystery is an icon that seems to be crying. Thousands of people have been flocking to a Greek Orthodox church in New York City to see a portrait that appears to shed tears.
But don't touch. St Irene Chrysovalantou Cathedral has ruled out-taking the icon 'from the cliurch for scientific tests.

"We don't ~ anything is too .' bizarre because of our ignorance about
'. the Medfly." said Roy Cunningham, a US Department of "Agriculture entomologist. , '
Here's alow-tech, functional fashion idea for the bovine crowd. In To-

From the United States to India, Japan and Australia, scientists ,report whole amphibian populations - frogs, toads and salamanders - have disal':: peared or are declining, even in protecte.d reserves. Biologists link the trend to the deterioratiitg environment.
Scientists say they have new proof that asteroids wiped out the dinosaurs 65 million y~ars ago: a 190-kilQmetrewide crater iIi Mexico. The site near the Yucatan Peninsula town of Chicxulub may have been "ground zero" for the collision . .

LAGOS: Nigerian President Ibrahim BabaDgida has urged black leaders in South Africa to end factional fighting which he called' 'the shame of Africa",
,. I have been disappointed by the fact that"Mr Mandela and ChiefButhelezi are yet to meet and stop the fratricidal carnage that has peen the shame of Africa," General Babangida said in a speech made available yesterday.
He called on Nelson Manuela's African National Congress and Chief Mangosuthu Buthelezi's Inkatha Freedom Party, as well as other anti-apartheid groups, to • 'bury their pride and sink their differerices".
Babangida made the comments in a speech last weekend to the Nigerian Institute of Intemational Affairs in Abuja, Nigeria's future federal capital.
More than3 000 people have been reported killed this year in South Africa 's faction-fighting.
The ANC has accused its main political rival, Inkatba, and the white-led government of stirring the unrest to undermine its strength in urban areaS.
R~anda~ fighting, still· continuing
KIGALI: Rwandan govemmeot troops havekilledatleast50rebelsinrecent fighting near the nOrthcm bolder with Uganda, Rwanda's state radio reported yesterday.
It said the heaviest fighting took place between December 12-14 when the army fought a battle with some 900 rebels that it said had crossed over from Uganda. Several thousand Rwandan exiles - mainly from the minority Tutsi tribe - invaded their former homeland on October 1 in an attempt to overthrow the government of President Juvenal Habyarimana,
Most of the intruders - many of whom had lived in Uganda fornearly all their life - were serving in Ugan-
dan President Yoweri Mu~veni's National Resistance Army (NRA).
After initial successes the rebels were pushed back and three of their leaders were killed. Since then, small rebel groups have turned to classic guerrilla tactics and now conduct hit and run raids on the border between the two countries.
Rwanda says many of the rebels are being allowed to operate from Uganda despite pledges from Kam
. pala to the contrary. Meanwhile, Radio Uganda reported
that some 214 Ugandans arrested and detained in Rwanda following the invasion had now been allowed to return home.
CHOLERA STRIKES HARD IN ZAMBIA
LPSAKA: Cholera has killed 104 people in Zambia since it broke out in the north of the country two months ago, the state-owned Zambia Daily Mail said yesterday. ' .
The newspaper was quoting ~ an unnamed health ministry official, who briefed local journalists late-on Tuesday on govemment attempts to contain the second major outbreak of the disease this year.
The earlier outbreak in and around the capital, Lusaka, killed 'about 200 people at the beginning of the year.
The ministry is setting up treatment centres and has banned public gatherings in the worst-affected northem province as well as supervising the burial of victims, the official said.

Cease-fire in Mozambique now looks like a reality
ROME: Nine countries, including the United States and the Soviet Union, formed a committee yesterday to oversee a partial cease-fire in Mozambique.
After the committee was set up, representatives of the leftist Mozambique government and the Renamo rebels began political talks on ending the 15ryear-old war.
"'This is the first step on a road towards secure and definitive peace," said Andrea Riccardi, an Italian mediator, as the delegations assembled around a long table at the headquarters of a Roman Catholic charity organisation.
The Mozambican government and rebels signed, an accord on December 1 aimed at . removing the estimated 30000 Zimbabwean troops from the conflict. They have been supporting the Mozambican government.
The monitoring committee formed . yesterday will oversee the grouping of the troops in two corridors in the Beira and Limpopo. river areas, the areas bound by the cease~fires.
The committee will be based in Maputo and is expected to start meeting there shortly after Christmas. For the first time since the start of the conflict, ·Renamo representatives, with diplomatic immunity, will be allowed
in the capital. In addition to the· Renamo dele
gates, the monitoring commission includes representatives of Mozambique, Zimbabwe, the Congo, France,
. Britain, Kenya, Portugal, the Soviet Union and the United States.
It also includes representatives of the mediators of the Mozambique talks - the Italian government, the
- Archbishop of Beira, Mozambique, and the Rome-based Catholic charity, Commuinta Di Sant'Egidio,
The US delegation waS ' led by Richard Roth, the State Department's deputy director for southem Africa. He told reporters there were numerous technical problems to iron out in the partial ceaSe-fire.
However, he said, "iftbCre 's enough political will on both si!ies, it won't be insurmountable" .
The govemment and rebels began their fourth round of talks yesterday on a definitive cease-fire. They were expected to discuss the holding of free elections and establishment of a new political system during the two days of talks,
. Previous talks have dealt with military questions and the establishment of an agenda.
Meanwhile, members of the monitoring committee were to discuss the organisation of their group and the exact dimensions of the cease-fire areas.
The Beira and Limpopo corridors are Mozambique's main access routes_ to the Indian ocean. One corridor starts from Beira and goes inland toward Zimbabwe, while the other borders the Limpopo river, north of the capital of Maputo.
'The partial cease-fire in those areas was intended both as a first step toward removing Zimbabwe from the conflict and as a good-faith measure by each side.
• Meanwhile, Mozambican rebels yesterday tried to capture a northem town but were fought off by army soldiers who killed 35 rebels and · captured two.
The battle occurred in Murrupula in the province of Nampula. It is outside the two are~s covered in the ' partial cease-fire agreed to on December 1 by the government and the rebels.
SA's days of whites only elections are numbered
PRETORIA: The South African deputy minister of constituional development, Roelf Meyer, says the governmeM is determined there will not be another general election without black participation.
, Meyer made this, comment in an interview to be published in January next ye{lI' in the publication, RSA Policy Review. His remarks were released in advance yesterday by the govemment's Bureau for Informa- ' tion. "Govemment is determiOed that there will not be another general election in South Africa in which
blacks cannot participate. In view of this it has, in terms of the existing constitution, a term of five years at its disposal, as from September 6, 1989, during which constitutional changes can be negotiated, enabling the blacks of South Africa to participate in the next election to constitute a legislative authority.
"Government has already pledged· itself to a referendum or election for whites. The rest of the population will also have to make a decision and a referendum or election will, therefore, have tobe held for them, either
together with or separately from that for whites, " Meyer said.
A new coostitution, he added. would involve power sharing.
"Power sharing means that a system of checks and balances has to be established through which power is distributed instead of concentrated. Obviously, there are various ways to achieve this. One such example is the office of Head of State. Power can, for example, be distributed among several individuals - such as a ceremonial state president, a deputy president or a prime minister. "
Walesa faces problem with-prime minister
WARSAW: Poland'~ president-elect Lech Walesa renewed his search for a prime minister yesterday after his
favoured candidate tumed down the job and other contenders appeared hesitant.
Walesa was forced to rethink his options after Solidarity lawyer Jan Olszewski abruptly abandoned consultations on forming a new government on Tuesday, citing "important differences" with Poland' s new leader.
Political sources said a second candidate, business person and Solidarity union deputy Jan Knysztof Bielecki, was also reluctant to accept the role of prime ministetina transitional government expected to last only until parliamentary elections next ' spring.
Vlalesa's spokesperson, Andrzej Dnycimski, said the president-elect now had no clear favourite for the post and would come to Warsaw on Friday to hold more talks one day before being swom to office.
"Consultations are continuing but there is no clear favourite. Because
the president plans quick parliamentary elections, as he has said many times, the candidates are afraid to take quick decisions," Drzycimski said. '.
He said Walesa wanted to build a government of "young, dynamic professionals" to tackle the recessionhit economy as its top priority,
Drzycimski said the president-elect had three more candidates for prime minister .up his sleeve in addition to four he had named earlier, including Olszewski and Bielecki.
Walesa, who says he wants strong presidential powers to speed up reform, said during his presidential campaign that prime ministers would be knocked around like bumper cars at a funfair as Poland hauled itself out of economic crisis.
"I expect that at least three prime ministers and three govemments will fall over the next five years, " he
, said.

dwindled 'after five days of anti-goverrunent demonstrations over a national economic crisis and slow-paced political refonn.
Romania faces serious food shortages, the economy is in chaos and many people feel revolutionary ideals have been betrayed by lliescu and Roman's government.
One of the country's biggest free trade union cartels Alfa served the government a list of economic and political demands, and threatened to call a general strike if any of its executives were harassed, harmed or arrested,
Workers from 11 major factOries, which declared a general strike, paraded through Timisoara in the moming, demanding the two leaders resign.
Inmid-aftemoon several thousands gathered in front of the Electrobanat appliances factory where they knelt and said prayers for more than 1 000 people killed in Romania in last De-cember's revolution. '
It was Electrobanat which first declared a strike in December last year, leading to the popular rebellion which toppled Ceausescu.
JOHANNESBURG: A South African foreign affairs official has been detained in terms of Section 29 of the
' Internal Security Act following the bomb blast in October a~ American Ambassador William Swing's residence in Pretoria, a Foreign Affairs spokesperson confirmed yesterday.
Police said the official was one of three suspects arrested in connection with the lam October 3 blast.
Sources in Pretoria said the arrested official held a low rank. and was in fact a cadet in the foreign affairs department.
Ambassador Swing was home at the time of the blast but was not hurt. He attended a function where President F W de Klerk was the guest of honour , the same day at the German ambassador's nearby residence, but did not mention the blast to guests.
The official reaction from the department of foreign affairs yesterday was-that "1he law should take its course. We have no further conunent".
At the time of the blast foreign affairs minister Pik Botha said the police had been asked to upgrade the security at embassies.

The blast had been caused by "a small explosive device" detonated outside the rear gate of the residential compound, causing slight damage.
GENEVA: A UN appeal for funds to help Liberians suffering from the brutal civil war has met with an" embarrassing silence" from donors, a UN official said yesterday.
Frank Verhagen, who works for the Office of the UN Disaster Relief Coordinator, the UNDRO, said there had been no contributions to the 13 million dollar appeal launched by UN Secretary-General 'avier Perez de Cuellar on December 5. I
"Liberia is one o( the forgotten emergencies," said Vemagen. pointing out that the West was preoccupied with the Gulf and Eastern Europe.
Verhagen told a news conference the UNDRO luid recently started sending'food supplies to the stricken West African nation. but there was no guarantee this would continue in view of lack of funds.
More than 12 000 civilians have been slaughtered; more than 750 000 Liberians have fled to neighboring states; and about half of the population is displaced within the West African nation.
He said the entire population, estimated at 2,3 million. had been hit by the "destruction .. , and savagery" of the yearlong fighting. He said no hospitals were functioning, there were no vaccines, and agricultural production had completely stopped.
, • It is the greatest human tragedy at the 'moment," conunented another 'UNDRO official, Brian Lamer, recently retumed from Liberia.
Lamer said the fragile peace had enabled international aid to enter the country, but this would be jeopardised if hostilities broke out again.

.Usakos in waternood BITTER ontevredenheid heers in Usakos vanwee 'n watertekort wat sedert Saterdag, 15 Desember vanjaar, in hierdie dorp ondervind word.
gese dat hulle probeer om die tekort te vedig maar dat hulle me in staat is om die probleem in sy geheel op te
Pastoor James Tjibeba van die Lutherse Kerk het gese dat die situ asie ondraaglik geword het omdat die inwoners me eens drinkwater hetme.
Hy het ook daarop gewys dat die inwoners van die woonbuurte Erongosig en Hakhaseb .ontevrede is omdat nog geen bevredigende verduideliking gegee is oor die feit dat hierdie tekort net in hierdie twee woongebiede ondervind word me, terwyl die oorwegend " wit" gedeeltevandie dOlp oor genoeg water beskik.
Die inwoners is ook ootevrede orndat lmlle me vooraf gewaarsku is omtrent
die watertekort me en omdat die stadsraad tot op hede me 'n plan gemaak: het om lmlle van ander broone van water te voorsien me.
Inwoners wat oor vervoer beskik moet daagliks water aanry vanuit die dorp. Met diegene wat me oor motors beskik me gaan dit n<?g erger.
Pastoor Tjibeba het gese dat die situasie so erg is dat hulle me meer hul toilette kan gebruik me en dat daar 'n vergadering van inwoners vir gisteraand gereel is om die krisis te bespreek. .
Pieter Loots, die stadsklerk, het
los me. . Hy het gese dat die probleem
moontlikveroorsaakis as gevolg van • die feit dat die pyp wat die water na die dorp bring te nou' is of omdat die water in die opgaardam te min is.
Daar sal nog 'n ekstra pyplyn aangele word, het hy gese.
Loots het ook genoem dat die munisipaliteit me oor tenkwaens beskik waarmee hulle water na die inwoners kan vervoer me, maar hy hoop dat water vandag nog na die twee woongebiede gepomp sal kan word. '
Front wil Roemenie red se" Windhoek ambassade
DIE moontlikheid van 'n oorlog in die Persiese Golfhefgister weer sterk op die voorgrond getree nadat Amerika se topmilitere manne in Saoedi-Arabieaangekom het om saam met geallieerde magte strategiee uit te werk hoe om Sad dam Hoessein van Irak fisies uit Koeweit te forseer. Die minister van verdediging, Dick Cheney, en die hoof van staf, Colin Powel, was onder die top militere raadgewers van president George Bush. Wanneer die oorlog losbars, gaan chemiese wapens gebruik word. Op die foto toon 'n Franse soldaat die uitrusting wat gebruik sal word om bestand te wees teen die gifg~se, waarmee Hoessein op hulle kan lostrek sodra die oorlog 'n aanvang neem.

DIE leierskap van .. die Front for ~asionale Redding'(National Salva- . tion), wat'die regerln-g in Roemenie is sedert die' Wrede sllktatorskap van Nikolai Ceausescu, is besig om'in 'n grootse poging die land uit 'n krisis te lei. S61ui 'n skerp verklaring deur die Roemeense ambassade in Windhoek in reaksie op berigte van die intemasionale nuusagentskap Reuters die afgelope tyd dat die land in 'n nuwe politieke krisis vasgevang is.
Volgens Reuters is die regering gedwing om met vakbondleiers en ander politieke groepe te praat, wat eis dat die Front se leierskap moet

bedank omdat die ekonomie verder verswak het. In 'n verklaring wat getitel is ' ''In 'die naam. van waarheid", se die Roemeense ambassade dat sekere mediaselektief te werke gaan om verdraaide dinge oor die politieke toestand van die land die wereld in te stuur.
V olgens die verklaring word die realiteite en die waaxheid nie gebalanseerd aangebied nie en daardeur word die nagedagtenissevan die wat hul lewens vir die Roemeense rewolusie opgeoffer het, belaster en word die ideale van miljoene mense inRoemenie gelgnoreer, wilt verlede Desember die fondamente van 'nrmwe samelewing gele het. .
Dannoem die ambassade dat groot pogings van stapel gestuur is om 'n rmwe, demokratiese sarnelewing daar te stel om die land uit 'n emstige krisis te lei. .
Die verklaring se voorts datdie Front reeds tydens die rewolusie die . strukture van die gewese Ceausescu afgebreek het. Daarmee is die onderdrukkende stelsel vemietig en vryheid en menseregte is daardeur verseker.
In die proses is daar wegbeweeg van "n eenparty-stelsel, die septraalbeheerde ekonomie is vervang met 'n markgerigte ekonomie en grond is terugbesorg aan die werkers.
Die verklaring skets die gebeurde wat rui die rewolusie gevolg het. In die daaropvolgende verkiesing in Mei vanjaar, het die Front uit 17 miljoen kiesers sowat 65 persent stemme getrek.. Ion nescu IS toe gekies as die nuwe president, en hy het begin om 'n program van stapel te stuur om die ekonomie reg te ruk en demokrasie te laat geld. Die proses vanherstel verloop egter nie heeltemal glad me en daar is 'n klomp hindernisse in die pad. Die regering is weI bewus van die probleme en voorstelle is reeds gemaak om dit opgelos te kry,
Die Windhoekse ambassade ' stel dit duidelik dat die Roemeense regering me "n oomblik sal terugsit nie, maar sal voortgaan om te veg vir die hervormings wat die land sal red.
V olgens die verklaring word vir begrip gevra aangesien 'n moeilike pad vorentoe vir die nescu-regering wag en alle probleme me oomag 'n kitsoplossing kan k.ry me.
Daarom moet mense goed ingelig word voordat hulle die nodige begrip sal kan toon. Die verdraaiing van die ware feite, gaanmense se siening oor die . oorgangstydperk; waartydens dinge maar broekskeur gaan, verkeerd inldeur. Daardeur kan goeie betrekkinge en same werking belemmer word.
Rowers moor polisie~an GEW APENDE rowers het gisterin "n poging om RI90 000 se pensioengeld vir bejaardes te buit, 'n polisieman naby Oshakati doodgeskiet. .
Volgens 'n Nampa-berig het polisiewoordvoerders ·op Oshakati en Ondangwa bevestig dat konstabel N Mandume noodlottig gewond toe 'n skietery beginhet terwyl twee polisiemanne amptenare van die Ministerie van Gesondheid en Maatskaplike Dienste vergesel het.
Die polisie kon egter me verdere besOJiderhede verska! me. Nampa berig aan die hand van bronne in Owambo dat 'n groep gewapende ,
rowers skielik op die voertuig, waarin die plisiemanne gereis het, losgebrand: het. .
In die proses is Mandume noodlottig ge~ond. Hy het later beswyk. Die ' rowers het die hasepad gekies na die skietery. Berigte het dit dat die polio siemanne nie gewapen was rue.
Die geld was bestem vir pensioentrekkers van die dorpie Onesi. Teen Iaat gister was dit nie seker of die polisie daarin geslaag het om
Mandume se moordenaars vas te trek rue.
Wag skiet man by vullishope DIE polisie onderlioek 'n aanklag van moord nadat 'n onhekende man vandeesweek deur 'n veiligheidswag by Windhoek se vullishope doodgeskiet is. Volgens 'n woordvoerdervan die skakelafdeling van die Namibiese Polisie, inspekteur Werner Gevers, is die man in die bors geskiet nadat hy glo die veiligheidswag, wat die plek opgepas het, van agter bespring het. .
Dit blyk dat die vullishope van die stad deur 'n sekuriteitsondememing 'opgepas word in opdrag van die Ministerie van Plaaslike Owerhede en . Behuising. Die doel is ldaai-blyklik om plakkers daar weg te hou.
Volgens Gevers het die man, wat doodgeskiet is, vroeer saam met vier ander vriende by die vullishope opgedaag. Hulle het glo die wag met klippe bestook voordat hulle weghardloop het. _
Rulle het later in die dag (Woensdag) teruggekom en toe hulle die wag sien, het die vier weggehardloop, maar die oorledene het glo agter iets weggekruip. Toe die wag yerby loop, het die hom na bewering van agter bespring. Die wag het toe sy vuurwapen uitgetrek en die man in di7 bors geskiet.

Van Basten scores five times ______ as the Dutch sink Malta a-o _____ _ AC Milan striker Ma.rco van Basten scored five times as the Netherlands beat Malta 8-0 in a European Championship Group Six soccer qualifier yesterday.
It was the Mediterranean Island' s heaviest defeat on home hround in international football and was witnessed by a crowd of about 7,000 at the Ta' Qali Stadium.
Van Basten got hi hat-trick withing 25 minutes and added two more goals after the break, including an 8Othminute penalty.
Dennis Bergkamp, twice, and Aron Winters also scored in the second half.
But the man who did much damage was Brian Roy, who opened the Maltese rearguard with his mazy dribbles on the left flank while Van Basten's Milan team-mate Ruud Gullit drew the defence on the other side.
Dutch goalkeeper aans van Breukelen only once, had to make a save
throughout the 90 minutes. The victory put the European
Champions top of Group Six with four points from three matches, a point ahead of Portugal.
On a pitch sodden with heavy moming rain, the Maltese soon found themselves in difficulty as the Dutch went all , out for an early goal.
The Netherlands got the break" through in the 10th minute through the mercurial V anBasten who turned home a free-kickafter Roy was fwlded near the comer flag.
V m Basten struck again in the 20th minute after a misunderstanding in the Maltese defence.
He completed his hat-trick in style five minutes1atet, taking a pass from Gullit on his chest with his back to the goal imdbeating goalkeeper David Cluet with a overhead kick.
The Dutch, playing one-touch football, kept the home side in their half and dictated matters throughout
the match. They had a flying start in the sec
ond half when, in the 51st minute, Winter (a substitute for ErwinKoeman) scored from a Gullit cross.
Van Basten hit his fourth from anaother cross from the right in between Bergkamp's two 'goals and rounded off the rout with a penalty after John van den Brom, who came on for Gullit, was felled in the box.
Teams: Malta - David Cluet, Edwin Camill~
eri (Hubert Suda, 46th minute), Joe Camilleri, Joe Galea, Kristian la Ferla, Silvio Vella, David Carabott, Michael Degiorgio, Charles . Scerri, Carmel Busuttil, Raymond Vella.
Netherlands - Hans van Breukelen, Danny Blind, Frank de Boer, Jerry de long, Jan Wouters, Erwin Koeman (Aron Winters, 46th), Dennis Bergkamp, Ruud Gullit (John van der Brom, 71st), Marco van Basten, Bryan Roy, Joban van't Schip.

Ghent overshadow , glamour side
CLASSY clubs like Anderlecht and Mechelen have been forced aside by unheralded Ghent in this season's Belgiap soccer championships.
Ghent head the standfugs as the 18-team First Division starts a fourweek winter break, one point ahead of pre-season favourites Anderlecht.
Ghent have gone 18 matches with only one defeat but the prospeCt of them taking the title for the first time has been greeted with scepticism by more illustrious rivals.
They are convinced Ghent, who can boast only two domestic cup wins back in the 1960s, will crack ,tinder the pressure when the season -resumes.
Munich Cup to draw top players
ORGANISERS are confident that the much criticized Grand Slam Cuy, ~ .. ~ richest tennis tournament, will develop into a major event drawing all the top players.
The players seemed to like it, although niany said they regarded it as little more than an exhibition. But 'they stressed that-.they were motivated more by pride than money.
The first $6 million Grand Slam , Cup ended Sunday with Pete Sam-, pras beating Brad Gilbert 6-3,6-4,6-2 for the $2 million first prize.
Gilbert earned $1 million, semifinalists $450 000, second-round losers $300 000 and first-round losers $100 000.
Unimpressive Yialli dropped from squad .
ITALY dropped striker Gianluca. Vialli , in favour of his Sampdoria teammate Attilio Lombardo in the squad to face Cyprus in a European Championships qualifier on Saturday.
Vialli, who missed most of !he World Cup through injury, is still struggling to regain match fitness and has been overshadowed of late by Lombardo, who scored a blistering goal for Sampdoria in their 1-1 draw against Bari on Sunday.
Vialli, who fractured his right foot in December 1989 and had an operation on his left knee this year, returned to league soccer in November
. but he did not play on SUIlday.
Cut-throat battle for NSL League
THERE has been a dramatic new development in the cut-throat battle to win places in the new big-money Castle First Division soccer league.
The names of eight FootballAssociation of South Africa (Fasa) teanlS have been submitted to the National Soccer League (NSL) for inclusion in the big-time league next season.
The clubs are: Benoni Northerns, Florida Albion, Stella Juventus, Avendale A.lltletico, Vasco da Gama, I
Pretoria Callies and Pretoria United ' (an amalgamation of clubs). .
In an interview in a national news- ' paper on Sunday, Bhamjee said Fasa had at no stage mooted the possibility of playing in either the NSL First or Second Divisions.

CONRAD ANGULA
. NAMIBIAN soccer clubs, which qualify for the Rossing Uranium-sponsored Premier League in the next season, will not know what hit them when they receive the "engagement" letter from the Namibia
THE TROPHY: Orlando Pirates and Iwisa Kaizer Chiefs friends pose with the coveted lwisa-Soccer Spectacular trophy before this year's final at the FNB Soccer City in Johannesburg. Chiefs clinched the competiton for the fifth time by defeating the Buccaneers 4-2 in the rmal.
Football Association (NFA). ' If one glances at the engagement
demands laid down by the soccer govemmg body, pne is not left in doubt that the football countrolling body obviously sets its goal on the achievement of much-needed discipline in the teams.
.The Namibian'Sport also welcomes the high fees demanded from the teams as we feel that the teams Will be more careful about their conduct in the new season and hopefully in the years to come.
