Lansdowne police spokesperson Sergeant Nkululeko Mnyaka says the police were no- tified of the fire at 21:30. “According to the complainant, her four- year-old son came to tell her that there was a fire in the room,” Mnyaka explains. After she was able to look further in the room, it was found the fire started from the little boy’s bed. “It was believed that the boy was playing with a candle alone in the room, which caused the fire. Fire fighters were on the scene and extinguished the fire,” Mnyaka says. No injuries were sustained during the in- cident. News of the fire spread rapidly on social media and the community was urged to band together to help the family who are in need after they lost their possessions. The four-year-old boy’s siblings are a 12- year-old girl, a 14-year-old girl and a 17-year- old boy. According to a community member, Noel Crowie, the family was temporarily relocat- ed to another home in Imam Haron Road while their place is repaired. “The immediate needs of the family are non-perishable food items, soap, toothpaste, warm clothing as well as bedding.

A home wherehope springsEARL HAUPT

@EarlHaupt

This week, Place of Hope (POH) resi-dence celebrated 14 years of helpingvictims of abuse.

Before its establishment in 2001 under theauspices of the Community Bible Fellow-ship, POH’s foundations were laid when amember of a local church was working withsex workers on the streets of Claremont, Ke-nilworth and Wynberg in 1998.Located in Crawford, POH offers women

and children the opportunity to not only bere-integrated into society, but also gain theskills needed to live self-sufficient liveswhilst providing a place of refuge.Victims of abuse are screened by various

organisations including the police, socialworkers and community workers before be-ing referred to POH.These women and children are offered a

period of six months’ residence duringwhich time they receive professional coun-selling, job skills and life skills training.JenniferArendorf, one of POH’s directors,

says that 18 women and 14 children are cur-rently under their care, but because of thelack of staff, numbers have had to be keptto aminimumdespite thehighdemandwith-in the community.“Lack of funding has always been the

number one challenge,” she says.“Whilst government gave some financial

support to cover running costs, the organisa-tion has always had to hustle for funding forsalaries and food bills.“One of the biggest challenges came when

the owners put the building up for sale in

February 2008 – there were 35 women and42 children in the house at the time.“The committee, who I think was tired of

constantly having to source funding, decid-ed theywould close the project. Eleven of the14 staff left, but three decided to stay on tokeep the ship afloat. And have they had arough ride!”Arendorf says that maintenance is anoth-

er challenge as POH is in need of anupgrade.However, despite the challengesPOH face,

there have been success stories.“I think of a young girlwho came fromone

of the informal settlements and (she) waspregnant at the time she came to us. Aftershe gave birth, a printing company offeredto payher tuition at a collegewhere she com-pleted a diploma in early childhood develop-ment. Her life and (that of) her little boy isso different now!“For many other of the women who have

come in through our doors, the greatest suc-cess is that they, through counselling andlife skills programmes, have come to realisethat theyhaveworth, potential and they stopbelieving the lies of their perpetrators,” shestates.“Then, with a skill tucked under their belts,they can become economically and emotion-ally independent, and be re-integrated intosociety to live in peace and with dignity.”She says that POH will continue to seek

funding. They held a market day over theweekend to raise funds formaintenance andto switch their power back on. They also fa-cilitate a soup kitchen every Thursday withthe Community Bible Fellowship.V Anyone willing to contribute by way of a donationor volunteer can call 021 697 2019.

Pupils get a pass for schoolTIYESE JERANJI

@jeranji

B-All Training Academy hosted a two-dayschool holiday programme last week inwhich 30 pupils from three schools partici-pated.Pupils from Cedar, Grassy Park and Port-

land high schoolswere trained in improvingmemory – being able to remember and proc-ess information important for their school-work. The pupils were also taught how toperform complicated operations and givenlanguage training.A pupil from Portlands High School in

Mitchell’s Plain, Ruwayda Rhode, says itwas a good and informative programme.“I have learnt how to outsmartmy calcula-

tor and how to study better than before. Thiswill not make me improve my grades at the

end of the year but will be a life lesson forall the tasks that I come across,” says Rhode.Lameez Fortune, a Grade 11 teacher at

Grassy Park High School, says it was some-thing the pupils really needed.“The pupils were blown away; motivated

by this interactive and unforgettable learn-ing experience,” he says.Bradley de Kock, founder of B-All, which

is based at Shawco in Kensington and hasbeen hosting this event annually since 2012,says it is a way of giving back to the commu-nity as well as a way to make learning fun.“Most schools in the underprivileged com-

munities never get such an opportunity. Sothis is our way to make them have hope andequip them with skills that they can use intheir day-to-day lives andgoingaround theirtasks at schoolmuch easier withmore confi-dence,” he says.

Thirty pupils from three Cape Town high schools attended a two­day B­All holiday programme.They say it was very informative to learn, among other things, how to improve memory.

Policy to improve traffic considered by CityA new traffic calming policy, aimed at ad-dressing a backlog of requests for speedhumps andwith anew focus to protect chil-dren on their way to school, is being con-sidered by the City of Cape Town.According to a statement, residents are

asked to air their views on the new policy.Brett Herron, mayoral committee mem-

ber for transport, explains the City re-ceives more than 400 requests for trafficcalming measures each year.There is currently a backlog of 500 traffic

calming projects to the value of R30m.Counting among these are requests for

speed humps, raised pedestrian crossings,mini-traffic circles, road markings androad narrowing – all devices to force driv-ers to slow down on residential roads.

“Over the past years, we have seen an in-crease in the number of requests for trafficcalmingmeasures,which canbeattributedto the deterioration in driver disciplineand a general disregard for the rules of theroad by all types of road user. Given thecurrent backlog and the steady increase inrequests, it hasbecomenecessary to revisitthe current regime.“As such, a new policy which seeks to

prioritise the implementation of thesemeasures where pedestrians, and particu-larly children, are most vulnerable atschools, parks and libraries is now on thetable.”Heexplains thepurpose of thenewpolicy

is to create a system that is financially sus-tainable, responsive to critical safety prob-

lems on residential roads and thatwill con-tribute towork through the backlogwithina reasonable time.Part of the new policy proposes that the

transport department implement trafficcalmingmeasures on roadsnext to existingschools as a matter of priority, with thebenchmark of at least 50 schools per calen-dar year.It also proposes that ward councillors

may identify, motivate and fund trafficcalming measures in response to a provenhistory of accidents on a road or in re-sponse to a recent and very urgent incidentthat demands immediate intervention.The policy alsomakes provision for indi-

viduals or organisations to fund trafficcalming measures, subject to prescribed

conditions.V Public participation on the new policy takes placeon Sunday 16 August. You can find the policy at yournearest subcouncil office or library or on www.cape-town.gov.za.

Over the past years,we have seen anincrease in thenumber of requestsfor traffic calmingmeasures

Kitchen’s blessings stretch farCHEVON BOOYSEN

@ChevonBooysen

The destitute are guaranteed at least onedecent meal a week at a soup kitchen

which some call a “blessing”.The soup kitchen, run by theMovingGos-

pel Mission of South Africa in 5th Avenue,Manenberg, has been supplying a weeklymeal to the most needy in the area for morethan two years.Parish leader Bishop Hansie Elliot says

the kitchen was initiated after a need wasrealised in the community.“We serve a large portion of people.Week-

lywe get just over 100 people standing at thegate to get their food,” he says.Elliot says, although on the day People’s

Post visited there was a shorter queue, “theneed is still there”.“People who come here every week are

the people who are really in desperate needof a plate of food. Today was a bit differentas some who frequent here are collectingtheir grant payouts,” he says.“Sometimes the samepeople return every

week and they spread theword tomore peo-ple in need,” Elliot explains.A homeless couple, Bradley Scheepers

and Connie Wilkinson, visits the soupkitchen weekly and says they are grateful.“We have been coming to the soup kitch-

en since it opened a few years ago. We arereally grateful because we survive on thissoup kitchen and another in the area andit’s the only food we get,” they say.Michelle Botha (28), who lives in Manen-

berg, says she is also grateful for the workdone by the church to feed the hungry.“I am very glad I get to have this little I

receive here weekly. It may be a little butit definitely goes a long way,” Botha says.As she leaves the soup kitchen she says

her 2F containerwill have to feed 10mouthswhen she gets home.Elliot says the soup kitchen is run purely

on donations.“We get a regular donation from a man

living near the church and he donates threepockets of potatoes every week. This helpsa lot but we also need many other ingredi-ents,” he says.Elliot says a soup truck from a large re-

tailer visits the kitchen monthly wheresoup and bread is handed out on the day.Elliot pleads with the community for do-

nations so the soup kitchen may continue.V Donations can be dropped off at the church in 5thAvenue, Manenberg.

ciously,” Bennett explains.The suspects then fired several shots

You can’t ‘buy’ housingEARL HAUPT

@EarlHaupt

The City of Cape Town has urged residentsnot to fall victim to housing scams whichhave been reported in some parts of the city.Benedicta van Minnen, mayoral commit-

tee member for human settlements, saysthat victims should report it to the police.“It has been confirmed that some resi-

dents have fallen victim to these scams andhave indeed ‘bought’ land or housing unitswhich were promised to them through theseillegal sales,” says Van Minnen in a state-ment.The City confirms that scammers, who

claim to be from the human settlements di-rectorate, have been operating with unau-

thorised documents which contain theCity’s official logo. It is alleged that once thepromised housing units or pieces of landhave been “sold”, the culprits disappearwith the money.“Residents must note that, should a per-

son qualify for a subsidy, they must not payany money to anyone to be placed on thehousing database or to receive a house.”

Update databaseVan Minnen urges applicants to contact

their local housing office to update their de-tails on the housing database so that theycan be contacted easily.“I also ask those who are not registered to

find out whether they qualify for a subsi-dised housing opportunity.”

Planned growth in the traffic depart-ment is set to reduce offences and ac-

cidents.The City of Cape Town’s traffic service

is expecting to swell its ranks by over 120new officers in the next year.

Over 50 traffic officer positions andfour supervisor positions have been ap-proved, says JP Smith, mayoral commit-tee member for safety and security. Andthere are even more in the pipeline.

The City has made provision for thestaff appointments in the new budget.

A total of 60 traffic officer posts stillneed to be approved by the council basedon a planned business model and an ad-ditional 20 traffic officers are expected tobe recruited to enhance the newly estab-lished transport enforcement unit.

“The City of Cape Town’s traffic ser-vice is under-staffed. Road safety has be-

come one of themost important focus ar-eas due to the number of deaths and thehuge financial cost of traffic accidents,”he says.

They are set to introduce a dedicated24-hour service, Smith explains.

“The newmemberswill add to the visi-bility of the service and hopefully helpto reduce the number of offences and ac-cidents on the roads. An additional bene-fit is the indirect policing of othercrimes,” he says.

But the new traffic officers won’t bethe only addition to the service.

A new system, which will use dash-board cameras, is set to be rolled out bythe end of next year, Smith says.

“The cameras would enhance the en-forcement of offences by recording theactivities of the staff.

“This is something that is used in oth-er countries and has evidential value inthe courts to help with the justice pro-cess,” he says.

‘Gangster’ shot in front of his home in ManenbergA case of murder has been opened in con-nection with alleged gang violence in Ma-nenberg on Wednesday last week.A 24-year-old man, believed to be a mem-

ber of the Hard Livings gang, was shot andkilled while standing in front of his homein Thames Avenue late on Wednesday eve-ning.

“Flower arrangement is about the wayyou feel. Your flowers must talk to

someone and they shouldn’t feel sad or lookunrealistic.”This is what Edith Rule, a follower of the

Ikenobo school of flower arranging, be-lieves. Rulewas speaking at the Ikebana andbonsai exhibition at the University of CapeTown Irma Stern Museum which was heldlast week.The flowers in the exhibitionwhere putup

by her students in freestyle form arrange-ments.Rule believes flowers are the way people

communicate with nature.“By freestyle we mean these flowers are

able to do what you like them to do. Youmake them look the way you want. Makethem communicate. They must talk to youabout the seasons and they are an expres-sion of what’s happening. Flower arrange-ment is about how you feel, it’s a connectionbetween you and what is happening in theworld,” she says.Originally a Japanese concept, Ikebana

means living flowers and is the Japaneseterm for flower arranging. It had its originin Buddhism in China and Korea. It broughtabout, through the centuries, a refined artwhich was originally practised by priestsand noblemen and in later centuries by Jap-anese in all walks of life. It became less for-malised over more centuries and is todaypractised by enthusiastic volunteers ofmany different nationalities.Rule adds that to do flower arrangement

properly one must be aware of your chosenmaterials, their space and their surround-ings.“Some flowers won’t do well in the house

and some work perfectly on a coffee table.

Just know and understand your environ-ment. This will allow your flower to talk toyou thewayyouwant it. Some flowersmightbe too big for a house and more suitable fora public space. Flower arrangement is amodern thought into a modern feeling. It’sa way of communication and to expressyourself,” she adds.To create beautiful ikebana the selection

of different kinds of plant material demandsan experienced eye and considerable techni-cal skill in order to create a kind of beautythat cannot be found in nature.Thys Klem, exhibitor of the bonsai, says

one of his trees, a wild olive, is 40 years old.

@gvdcapejazz

All youngsters and adults who are interestedin getting a better grip on music are invitedto join Saturday music classes in Lansdowne.

IMAD, the Institute for Indigenous Musi-cal Arts Development, which serves theyouth in three schools on the Cape Flats laun-ched an initiative in June to open its doorsto all those interested in learning music.

Music teacher and IMAD director GeorgeWerner explains that talented instrumenta-lists get the chance to perform with the insti-tute’s Little Giants big band.

“IMAD’s Saturday school aims to providehigh school pupils, whose schools do not offermusical training, the opportunity to learn to

play music,” he says.“The school will also cater for young and

adult music learners from the surroundingneighbourhoods.”

Highlights of the initiative’s launch thattook place at York Road Primary School atthe end of June included performances by theLittle Giants and the Vuma Levin Quintetfrom the Netherlands.

This professional jazz group is touringSouth Africa, including performing at theNational Youth Jazz Festival in Graham-stown, where the Little Giants will also bepresent.

The IMAD Saturday classes will take placeat York Road Primary in Lansdowne.V For more details contact Nick Green on 084 660 6158or [email protected].

MANENBERG

Flat upgradesnailed to crimeThe completion of the renovation of flat

blocks in Manenberg has pushed for-ward despite continual disruptions due togang violence in the area.

The City of Cape Town says it “remainsdedicated to the completion” of the projectafter it has been halted many times due tothe flare up of gang violence incidents.

Benedicta van Minnen, mayoral commit-tee member for human settlements, saysCity officials and contractors have workedtirelessly to ensure that this project re-mains on track in an effort to improve theliving conditions of tenants.

“I am proud to announce that more than1 500 out of the 1 584 rental units in Manen-berg have been completed. This projectforms part of the broader city-wide refur-bishment programme which has seen thecompletion of more than 7 200 council rent-al units of the 7 775 initially identified in2008,” Van Minnen explains.

Hard hitVan Minnen adds Eva and Dina courts

have been particularly hard hit by disrup-tions since October last year due to gang ac-tivity.

“The abnormal violence that escalated to-wards the end of last year forced the con-tractor to temporarily suspend operations.In addition, soon after the blocks were va-cated in order for the renovation work to be-gin, armed thugs took over the blocks and

serious vandalism also occurred,” she says.The City then had to ask for extra funding

for the repairs and for additional security.Eva Court A has been completed and

some of the tenants have already movedback home. The rest of the tenants will berelocated back to their upgraded units assoon as the work is done.

AugustDina Court A has also been completed and

tenants have moved back.“The remainder of the tenants of Dina

Court B, where work is still ongoing, willbe relocated back to their upgraded units assoon as work has been completed.”

Van Minnen says the completion date hasbeen changed to August.

“But we remain concerned about the levelof gang violence which is jeopardising thesafety of our residents, our contractors andour efforts to increase service delivery. Weurge our communities to work with us sothat our refurbishment programme can becompleted on time,” Van Minnen pleads.

The Manenberg renovation project iscosting R226m and includes major mainte-nance and internal and external upgrades,external landscaping work, and construc-tion and maintenance of the temporary ac-commodation village, Van Minnen says.

Residents are urged to report any antiso-cial or criminal behaviour, such as gang-sterism to the police.

Therenovationproject inManenbergis expectedto becompleteby nextmonth.

LEGAL DEDUCTIONS FROM SOCIAL GRANTS

The SASSA Payment Card

Which Deduction Is Legal?

How can SASSA assist social grant beneficiaries with illegal deductions?

Safety tips for all social grant beneficiaries:

one

0800 60 10 11

Western Cape Helpline @ (021) 469 0235 or 0800 60 10 11.

The South African Social Security Agency (SASSA), would like to provide communities with the

following information regarding social grant deductions:

The SASSA branded payment card, was introduced to allow social grant beneficiaries the convenience of

accessing their social grant anywhere and at any time. The SASSA payment card is a debit card and

allows for cash to be withdrawn from ATM's, purchases to be made from suppliers and legal deductions to

be made. The introduction of the SASSA payment card into the banking system unfortunately also

provided an opportunity for social grant beneficiaries to be exploited through unauthorized deductions.

Before the social grant is paid into the bank account of a beneficiary only deduction is allowed to be

made for a funeral policy, which may not exceed 10% of the total value of the social grant. This premium is

deducted by SASSA before the social grant is paid to the beneficiary and then paid over to the relevant

insurance company.

Once the social grant is paid into the bank account that is linked to the SASSA debit card, legal deductions

instituted by financial entities will take effect for purchases that were made ie: airtime, electricity, micro-

loans, credit instalments, policy premiums etc. Any disputes should be resolved directly between the social

grant beneficiary and the entity that instituted the deduction.

Social grant beneficiaries are requested to report any illegal deductions to the nearest SASSA

office/service point where they will be assisted to complete a claim form so that the matters can be

investigated. Alternatively beneficiaries can contact the SASSA call centre @ where

SASSA staff will record the relevant details and refer the matter for investigation. Where beneficiaries have

not authorized deductions or for their SASSA cards/account details to be used by others, the deducted

amounts will be paid back to them. This is usually done within a period of 3 working days. Should any

social grant beneficiary not receive the required assistance from a SASSA office or staff member this must

be reported to the office manager or the

• Do not to respond to SMS messages offering airtime, electricity and other services. By responding

to these messages, beneficiaries are actually taking on a "subscription" service and the amounts

will be deducted off the bank account through the EFT debit system every month.

• Do not use your SASSA payment card as security for loans and to purchase any financial services

products.

• Do not authorize deductions to be made against your card except for the one funeral policy

deduction that should not exceed 10% of the social grant value.X1Q9NXFW-QK070715

Parents jump infor swimmersTIYESE JERANJI

@jeranji

A group of parents from Lansdowne,Mitchell’s Plain, Plumstead and Retreat

believe that swimming is not getting asmuch coverage as other sports, making itdifficult to be financed or to get sponsor-ship.For their children to take part in swim-

ming competitions, they say they have todig deeper, but they can’t always afford topay for their travel, amongst other things,when they go to a competition outside theprovince. Tomakematters worse, there arenot enough heated swimming facilities,making it difficult for their children to prac-tise throughout the year.To raisemoney the parents hosted a fund-

raisingdinnerdance for four childrenat theClaremont civic centre last week.The four swimmers, Camrin Elliot (12),

Nezario Stevens (12), Ciara Payne (11) andInez Marthinus (10), are all level two swim-mers with Vineyard Swimming Club.They have all competed at regional cham-

pionships and are currently preparing fortrials to represent the Western Cape in Pre-toria in December. The money made at thefundraiser will cover some of the expensesfor this trip.One of the parents, David Marthinus,

says they received an overwhelming re-sponse and it swept them off their feet.“We didn’t expect such presence. People

came out in support and those that weren’tthere sent their donations. The support wasmore than what we expected. We are gladthat people came out to support us and tomake sure that our kids succeed, because

they put in a lot of hours to make sure thatthey excel in what they do. The money willgo a long way in helping.“We won’t stop now because there are a

lot of other competitions, so we will contin-ue to host such events,” he says.Another parent, Tracey Payne, also says

the event was a success. They are glad thatwhat they gotwill help themprepare for thenext tournament.“We had to do everything out of our pock-

ets and it was so costly. We have to bookflights, accommodation and cars when theygo out of the province. The event was sucha success and it will help us prepare for ourchildren’s next event.“This is what they love, so we have to do

everything within our power to supportthem. Everything helps, so we are gratefulfor the people that came out to help,” saysPayne.Marthinus adds that they are proud of the

four children as they put in effort and dedi-cation.“We are exceptionally proud of them. At

that age, they can even do open-water swim-ming where they have to put in long hours.Their dedication is commendable and hav-ing to find balance between their schoolwork and swimming is just adorable. Whatwe have to do now as parents is to supportthem. We stand behind them fully becausethey are an example to everyone. They haveopportunities thatwenever had,” saysMar-thinus.The parents are already looking forward

to another fundraising event. Those whowant to attend the fundraiser or donate tohelp can contact Marthinus on 076 406 3458or Payne on 074 976 8019.

One of South Africa’s iconic couples, Archibishop Des-mond Tutu and his wife Leah, last week celebrated their60th wedding anniversary by renewing their vows.In a society plagued by high divorce rates, making it

to 60 years of wedded bliss is nomean feat, which is exact-lywhy it is so important to have such positive rolemodelswhen it comes to marriage.In fact, according to statistics released by StatsSA in

December, nearly half of marriages that end in divorcelast less than 10 years.In our consumer-driven culture, fuelled by instant grat-

ification, “fixing things” is not an idea that comes natu-rally to many people. Coupled with a high dose of over-the-top romance in themedia,manyyoung couples expectmarriage to be like something out of a Nicholas Sparksnovel.Most couples who have been married for a long time

will tell you that their secret is compromise and patience.The reality is that good relationships don’t just happen,theydevelop over time. There’s a fair amount ofwork thatgoes into keeping romance alive.Another “marriage secret” you’ll oftenhear is:A couple

that laughs together stays together. It’s the laughter thathelps keep a couple connected and “in tune” despite thestresses of daily life.We owe it to future generations towork on our relation-

ships. Instead of giving up show them that true romanceis about companionship and not just whirlwind romanceand to teach them the value of happiness that comes fromfamily stability.When previously asked her secret to staying in love for

so many years, Leah Tutu reportedly said: “There is nomagic to making marriage work. A marriage is nevermade in heaven‚ you make it what it is. If you love a per-son‚ it’s simply not enough. Youmust meet halfway‚ giveand take‚ for the rest of your lives”.

Don’t allow crime to ruleIn a recent media report the InteriorMinister of Italy denounced the homagethat arose in Oppido Mamertina, aCalabrian town and mafia stronghold. Aparade held in the town included theclergy, the mayor and high profilefamilies carrying a statue of the Madon-na. The walk took a detour to honour alocal mafia don. This event arose afterPope Francis excommunicated membersof the mafia. The incident validates thedeep connections criminals have withstate structures and the church in Italy.Criminality around the courts of Cape

Town is a warning that should becrushed instantly. Criminals that ap-peared in court, now have followers thatescort them. The fans include preachers;they display placards, stating the inno-cents of the criminal.It is a sad truth that we live in a sick

society. The fact that children andinnocent people are killed by savagesregularly near schools and playgroundsis an outrage. That murder can occur

near a magistrates’ court confirms thedeep contempt that criminals have forlaw and order.We cannot have a situation comparable

to Italy where the political and religiousleaders of a town and perhaps a nationare scared of criminals. Those who haveno respect for the sanctity of the courtsof law and the purity of public spacesmust be removed permanently fromsociety.Our society should not spend limited

tax monies on the rehabilitation orwell-being of criminals. We do not wantinsight into their criminality, we wantthem gone. We need tax and ratepayersmoney to build houses and schools andparks.In the words of the wise, those in

governance, better listen. If crime is notmanaged, soon, peaceful people willresort to required action to protectthemselves and their families.

Parents should become cyber savvyWith the school holidays in full swing, Iappeal to parents to familiarise them-selves with the various social medianetworks that their children use, to helpkeep them safe from online predators.Each social media platform has unique

risks and many children don’t realise thedangers.They underestimate how easily accessi-

ble their information is and forget thatothers are watching their online activity.Talk to your children about the dangersof social media.Social media can be a wonderful tool,

but we need to keep a close eye on itsusage in order to keep our children safe.

Act now to preventfuture ‘shedding’We have seen and we are still experienc-ing the utter chaotic demoralising effectload shedding by Eskom has had on ourpersonal and economic lives.All this is due to the fact that foresight

in maintenance and proper managementskills were and are not in place. Thisplague must teach us a lesson and wemust learn as a country that suchshortcomings must never happen again,because it affects the lives of us, thecitizen, in a negative way.We have to look at our water supply

now and ensure that the wells do not dryup. We have to put measures in placenow to ensure that we do not have watershedding. We have to look at our currentmaintenance capabilities and even go sofar as to think of investing in waterdesalination. Our politicians must placethis item on the agenda now for safe-guarding the present and supplyingfuture water resources to man and beast.The other aspect we must deal with nowis the supply and safeguarding of ourfood. No person or animal can survivewithout food so therefore we must putmeasures and plans in place now toensure a continuous, constant cheapsupply of food for now and for the future.The politicians and all role-players haveto amend current legislation in relationto food production in rural and cityareas. The monopoly on food productionby a few for profit has to end andmeasures and plans have to be imple-mented now so that food can always beafforded a place on the table. We canonly imagine what food shedding willlead to and here one has to just peepback at one of the reasons we hadFrench and Russian revolutions.South Africa, to prevent all manners of

future shedding, we as citizens now haveto be vocal and tangible in our efforts toget those we voted in to implementmeasures and to appoint the correctpersons in the various life-giving projectsor we will have such misery it will beunimaginable to describe or to experi-ence.

Marc shares his funny streakLOUISA STEYL

@LouNotes

Cape Town funnyman Marc Lot-tering will be among the local

stars on stage at Bellville CivicTheatre on Sunday 26 July for theannual Want ons kan/’Cause wecan! charity concert.TygerBurger, sister publication

of People’s Post, is the media spon-sor for the concert that each yearsees local celebrities share theirtalents for free in aid of three dif-ferent charities.Every cent generated through

ticket saleswill go to Project Digni-ty, Fisantekraal Centre for Devel-opment and CHOC Childhood Can-cer Foundation.“It’s good to do good,” Marc says

of his involvement.

New showWhen he isn’t lending his voice

to charity, the stand-up comedianis touring the countrywithhis newshowMy favourite stories. The one-man show features some of his newmaterial, along with his favouritestories from previous shows.Marc will also be acting as the

“minister of the Cape, retail thera-pyand statues”whenhe joins someof the country’s other top comedi-ans at the Nando’s mass hysteriacomedy parliament at ArtscapeTheatre in October.Known for the host of zany char-

acters he brings to the stage, likeAunty Merle, the housewife fromBelgravia Road and Smiley the“taxi gaartjie”, Marc describes hisbrand of comedy as “hair-raising”.

Local industryNot one to shy away from tack-

ling current affairs on stage, whenasked about what makes himlaugh, he simply says: “Waterkloofairport”.Marc has spent nearly two dec-

adesmakingSouthAfricans laugh.He says one of the biggest changeshe’s seen in the local comedy in-dustry during his career is the“loads” of talented younger come-dians emerging. “They keep me onmy toes,” he says.He’ll be amongmany established

names when he performs at thisyear’s Want ons kan/’Cause wecan! concert.The line-up for the star-studded

affair includes Zanne Stapelberg,NicoNel, Jak de Priester andAltusMuller, Anna Davel, Mathys Roetsand Jaconell Mouton (piano),WicusvanderMerwe, PeterMitch-ell, Schalk Joubert (bass), LunaPaige (vocals and piano), VernonSwart (drums), Corlea, Andre andThe Swingers, David Kramer,Dewald Wasserfall, Dowwe Dolla,Pedro Kruger, Hiram Koopman,Albert Frost and Arno CarstenswithTraceyLangeandHannesvanWyk acting as MCs.Marc says he’s looking forward

to seeing Dowwe Dolla most. “Ithink she has a thing for me.”

Sax man shareshis journey in notesGARY VAN DYK

@gvdcapejazz

The streets of Elsies Rivermay be betterknown for crime and gangsterism butthe smooth saxophone sound of Don-veno Prins has proved that music canempower.On Friday and Saturday you will get

the chance to discover that journeywhen he hosts From Elsies to the worldat the Baxter Concert Hall.It’s a journey that is still on a positive

path but, like so manymusicians on theCape Flats, it started in the church, ledtoChristmas bands and eventually tour-ing the world.“When I was still in school I never

thought that thiswould bemybread andbutter,” he says. “I always loved music,but it was only when I worked for Shop-rite that one day I realised that workingin the retail industrywas notwhat I wasborn todo. I remember clockingouthalf-way throughmy shift and I never lookedbackandhere I am todaydoing the thingthat I love so much and the bonus is I’mgetting paid for it.”Clocking out on that fateful day was

the best gift that local music was given.

HighlightsJoining Abdullah Ibrahim’s jazz pro-

gramme led to his ability flourishing, get-ting chosen to be part of the National YouthBand and touring to many festivals acrossthe world, but since then he has become astaple of the South African music scene.Best known for his performances in pro-

ductions such as Intimate nights chapter II,Love, jazz & duets andMusic alla Kaap, he’salso worked alongside renowned local art-ists such as Lloyd Cele, Loyiso Bala, JimmyDludlu, JudithSephuma,PJPowers andLa-dysmith Black Mambazo.“It’s always been exciting toworkwith all

these musicians but one of the highlights ofmy career was when I got the opportunityto perform with Jonathan Butler. Also re-cording with Kirk Whalum on his latestGospel according to jazz chapter 4was a phe-nomenal experience.”With this showat theBaxterhe is inviting

audiences to discover his journey in music.“This show and the process of creating it

has been so empowering and fresh to me.“Manymusicians tend to be too comforta-

ble behind their instrument, but this showallows me to showcase not just my musicalskills but also my storytelling abilities.

“This show has also kind of forced me todig a bit deeper into my heritage to find outexactly where I come from and the impactit had on where I’m now.”Inmore recent years,Donvenohas settled

into the chair of musical director for pro-ductions such asBlood brothers,Radio clas-sics, Kat and the kings, and 3 wise men.

Positive musicBut he still wants to play a role in mento-

ring young people to discover the joy andempowering force of music. Since 2009 hehasbeenpart of theDelftYouthMusicAcad-emy, training underprivileged youth toread and perform all genres of music.“Positive music can definitely play a big

role in guiding our youth away from nega-tive influences.”FromElsies to theworld is directed byAli-

stair Izobell and includes original com-posedmusic. Itwill be performed inEnglishand Afrikaans.Tickets are R120 at Computicket on

0861 915 8000, online at www.computick-et.co.za or at any Shoprite Checkers store.V For discounted corporate or block bookings, fun-draisers and charities, call Sharon on 021 680 3962or Carmen on 021 680 3993 during office hours.

The South African nationaldarts championship is under-way in Johannesburg until its

conclusion on Friday.The first national champion-

ships were held in Cape Town in1993, which served as the platformfor Darts South Africa (DSA) to beformed through the unification ofall the darting districts and associ-ations in South Africa.

TheWesternCape is representedby four affiliated districts whichform the federation: Cape Town,West Coast, Cape Winelands andEden.

Cape Town Darts is made up ofnine associations, including two-time defending inter-districtchampion Peninsula Darts Associ-ation (PDA).

The other associations are: Ath-lone, Mitchell’s Plain, NorthernSuburbs, Ocean View, South Pen-insula, Southern Suburbs, Sti-

kland and the Western ProvinceDarts Association.

The DSA tournament formatconsists of an inter-regional andinter-district four-a-side competi-tion in which players compete inboth doubles and singles play. Theinter-district competition has sev-en divisions.

Peninsula will be leading thecharge of the Cape Town teams inthe inter-district competition,where they will be chasing an un-precedented third title in a row.

They are unbeaten for the pasttwo years, having not lost a matchat thenational championship since2013.

TheWesternCapewomen’s teamtook national honours in the inter-regional competition last year,while the men’s team finished asthe runners-up in their division.

Peter Bowers, manager of thePDA men’s team, is confident thatthe team is ready to defend its na-tional title. Frank Avenant, LesleyBeukes, Jason Erasmus, Elroy

Dirks, Jason Hendricks, FranklynMiller, Sean Shaw andAshwin Ad-ams will be representing PDA atthis year’s tournament.

Avenant will also compete in theInternational World Darts tourna-ment inTurkey inOctober and rep-resent South Africa there.

Warren Hansen, Cape TownDarts’s transformation official andPDA’s vice-chairperson, echoesBowers’ optimism.

“The only challenger to thethrone is the Western ProvinceDarts Association.

“Western Province has four

players in the Western Cape DartsFederation team as well.”

Hansen also highlights top play-ers in the Cape Town district whocouldmakean impact in this year’sinter-district tournament: “Play-ers who are performing very welland are on top of their game in theregion are Wesley Daries andMar-thinus Grobelaar.

“These two gentlemen were thetwo top performers at the WesternCape Darts Federation trials. Bothplayers are from Cape Town Dartsandwill be representing theWPDAin the inter-district competition.

“The women who are perform-ing very well are Yolanda van Roo-yen from Cape Town Darts, whowill also be representing SouthernSuburbs Darts Association at thenational darts tournament, andMaxi Keet of the Cape Winelandsregion in Paarl,” he says.

Van Rooyen, along with youthplayer Tayla Carolissen, will bejoining Avenant in Turkey as theCape Town locals fly the flag forSouth Africa.

The next Darts South Africacompetition will be hosted inBloemfontein next year.

The 20th edition of the CokeCup kicked off at sportsgrounds across the city over

the weekend.The competition has been un-

earthing local talent since 1996,giving clubs in the local soccer as-sociations within the South Afri-can Football Association (Safa) achance to reveal their strengthwithin the amateur ranks.

Peninsula Beverages has put itsweight behind the initiative againas the title sponsors of the tourna-

ment.“The excitement of this competi-

tion is experienced not only in thesenior ranks, but also by the wom-en soccer players and the u.18s,”Peninsula Beverages says in astatement.

Platform415 clubs will compete in the

tournament which has seen thelikes of Anele Ngcongca, RivaldoCoetzee, Thulani Serero, BantuMzwakali and Clayton Daniels useit as a platform to the PSL and be-yond.

“It is Safa Cape Town’s noble re-

sponsibility to develop and nur-ture young talent in the region andpartners like Coke help us to meetour objective,” says Norman Ar-endse, Safa Cape Town’s chairper-son.

“This is the biggest amateursponsored soccer tournament inthe empires of Safa.

“Other regions are amazed at thesize and sponsorship of this compe-tition”.

Silver Spurs is the defendingmen’s senior champion and willhave to triumph in eight rounds ofcompetition if it is to repeat lastyear’s heroics.

GENEVIEVE LENT

The South African Table Tennis OpenChampionship at theBelhar sports cen-tre lastweek sawmore than 650 compet-

itors from 14 regions.Mitchell’s Plain native Shane Overmeyer

contested the men’s final against GautengCentral’s Terence Mathole.Overmeyer, a seven-timeSAchampionbe-

fore this year’s event, was a man on a mis-sion. He had a score to settle with Mathole,who had beaten him in last year’s tourna-ment.Overmeyer also wanted to prove that he

was indeed the best that Western Provincehad produced in recent years and claim thenational title for an incredible eighth time.Overmeyer, who plays for Bishop Lavis,

had beaten the 2014 champion, Keagan Lin-geveldt en route to the final, while Matholesecured his place in the showdown afterovercoming Kurt Lingeveldt.WP featured in all but one of the finals at

the tournamentwhichpreceded themen’s fi-nal (missing out on participating in thewomen’s final).WithOvermeyer beingWP’shead coach, the pressure stakes increasedsignificantly.A packed Belhar sports centre would bear

witness to one of the most epic table tennisfinals to date, providing an electric atmos-phere as Mathole received phenomenal sup-port from the crowd.Overmeyer said that he was nervous in

the morning and during the first set of thefinal, but that his best game is played whenfighting to win, having won many matcheswhen coming back from a deficit. He put hissuccess down to experience.WP, as it would seem, is the hub of South

African table tennis, as the province pro-duced numerous junior champions at thetournament. Lakeasha Johnson claimedboth the u.15 and u.18 girls’ titles. ZakeerMoosa was crowned the u.18 boys’ champi-

on. Other stand-out performers for WPwereJesse-Leigh Nomdo (u.13 girls’ doubles andmixed champion), Cade Peters (u.15 boys’single anddoubles champion),MusfiquhKa-lam (u.13 girls’ singles and doubles champi-

on), Trudy Barros (u.18 girls’ doubles run-ner-up and u.18 mixed doubles runner-up),Simeen Mookrey (u.18 girls’ singles runner-up, u.15 girls’ doubles champion and u.15mixed doubles champion).
