NO for GTM tender Francois Aucamp

francois@bulletin.us.com

The first shots have been fired in the North Gauteng High Court in what is now referred to by informed local political observers as ”the beginning of the GTM’s season of trouble”. The court ruled for the well-known Mac P Construction (Pty) Ltd of Tzaneen, the applicant, in an interdict against the GTM and Makgetsi Construction Enterprises CC in an application regarding a tender by the GTM (Greater Tzaneen Municipality) for the construction of the road between Sasekani and Nkowankowa (known as the D3763). The court has also ruled that the respondents, the GTM and Makgetsi, who opposed the application, have to pay the applicant’s cost. In the mean time the project has been frozen, pending a revision on 3 April. In the ru-

Season of Trouble

ling the court found that there was a strong prima facie possibility of serious irregularities in the tender process. The members of Makgetsi are Reginah Sekibela Mahalefa and Makgetsi Lordwick Samson Manthatha. Mahalefa’s address is 33 Aqua Lane, Aqua Park, Tzaneen, whilst Manthatha’s address is 1357 Industrial Street, Lenyenye. The CC’s registered address is Tloung Village, Magogwe, Mafikeng, and the entity’s accounting officer is one M B Mhangwana from Chloorkop. The tender to the amount of R33 223 649,84

was awarded to Makgetsi. Rumour has it that there is a link between Makgetsi and Selby Construction, one of the GTM’s seemingly preferred civil construction companies. Mr Louis Erasmus of Thomas & Swanepoel Attorneys in Tzaneen is Mac P’s attorney and Advocate Dawie Fourie SC was commissioned to appear for the applicant. Mr Makapane Colin Modipa and his wife, Ms MM Modipa, are the directors of Mac P. The Bulletin has information indicating that a number of claims are on the cards for the GTM. One developer who has asked not to be identified at this stage is busy with litigation to slam the GTM with a R20 million claim, whilst another developer is also contemplating a substantial claim against the GTM. A number of other claims and/or other forms of legal action are also being considered, according to our information.

‘Dwelmsmous’ in GLM badly Tzaneen gevang in the red

Dwelmsmouse versteek bietjies dwelms weg van die perseel waar hulle woon, byvoorbeeld in die mik van ‘n boom. Hier ondersoek ‘n polisiebeampte tik en heroïenbehandelde kleefpapier tydens verlede week se klopjag in Tzaneen, waarop ons afgekom het.

‘n Nigeriese dwelmsmokkelaar is Vrydag aan die buitewyke van Tzaneen deur die polisie vasgetrek, nadat hy met ‘n verskeidenheid dwelms in besit betrap is. Terwyl die polisie hom op

die perseel ondervra het, het ‘n vrou wat dwelms gesoek het, hom gebel. Sy het in ‘n goudkleurige nutsvoertuig voor die Highgrove Hotel op hom gewag. Die registrasienommer van die voertuig • Na bl 9

The Greater Letaba Municipality is badly in the red after receiving an adverse report from the auditor general (AG) on its performance during the past financial year. The report, questioning the disappearance or records of more than R135 million, accused the GLM of unauthorised, irregular and wasteful expenditure – thus deciding on an adverse opinion. The AG lashed out against the GLM’s audit committee, who did not function as required by the municipal finance management act. The committee did not review the annual financial statements and did not meet at least four times a year. Another body functioning as the performance audit committee did not perform as required by municipal planning and performance management to meet at least twice

during the financial year, or review the quarterly reports of the internal auditors. It also failed to submit an auditor’s report to the council regarding the performance management system, which should be done at least twice during the financial year. The internal audit unit did not function as required by the financial management act and the GLM failed to develop mechanisms, systems and processes for auditing the results of performance measurement as required. The report added that the management of the GLM did not monitor the effectiveness of the audit committee, while the accounting officer failed to exercise oversight responsibility over financial reporting. “The chief financial officer (CFO) did not ensure that amounts disclosed in the financial statements agree to supporting schedules and documents. Accounting standards were incorrectly applied.” This report is bad news for the GLM after it received a qualified report for the previous financial year.

Stephanie Carmen Eslick: YumYum is the most amazing restaurant not only in Tzaneen, but in SA! Divine out of this world meals with complimentary wines and always have friendly faces who remember you so well they know what you like to drink/eat! Rene Viljoen: Dis lekker om iemand te tip wat jou goed behandel het. Daar is beslis ’n verskil tussen goeie diens en ’n goeie ondervinding. Jy verwag goeie diens, maar ’n goeie ondervinding sal jy nooit vergeet nie. As werkgewers mense oplei sodat hulle goeie diens gepaard met vriendlikheid en mensekennis lewer, gaan dit hul kliënte baie meer welkom laat voel, en groter tips vir die kelners. Caroline Desler: Ashley’s Continental Cafe. Actually the ENTIRE menu is awesome. The staff are always friendly and polite and they know their menu! Rialine Steyn: Ek is mal oor Crawdaddy’s se kos, maar die kelners is swak. Ek het by Crawdaddy’s in Pretoria gewerk en ek is seker die diens by al die franchises behoort dieselfde te wees. En dit kom glad nie die mas op nie! Lourens En Lelani Otto: Ons was die naweek by Country Lodge, een van die kelners daar was glad nie baie vriendelik nie. My man het toe vir hom gesê hy moet bietjie vriendeliker wees, toe draai hy om en sê: I’m not your friend. Nico Cloete: Ek is self ’n kelner en glo my, die kliënte het baie te doen met hoe vriendlik ons is. Behandel ons bietjie beter en jy sal fantastiese diens kry. Ons is ook mense en het so nou en dan ’n af aand. Yolanda Welman: Die diens by eetplekke is nie die enigste probleem nie, selfs groot kettingwinkels se diens wat eers puik was, is deesdae pateties. Die werkers staan met mekaar en praat, krap in hulle neuse en hou aan praat terwyl hulle jou bedien. Sit maar 10 minute by jou inkopies tyd vir die staf se geselsietyd. Gordon G Miller: Highgrove Lodge!

Gevaarlike neuse

Vlieg praat met die Volk, en krap waar dit jeuk

Omdat Vlieg nie baie ondervinding van regsgeleerdes het nie, vind hy dit nog altyd baie moeilik om hulle van mekaar te onderskei. Seker omdat Vlieg advies gekry het dat almal van hulle harteloos, gewetenloos en ruggraatloos is. Vlieg het gedink die woord prok het dalk iets daarmee te doen, maar sy doktersvriende sê vir hom die voorvoegsel prok- verwys na ‘n deel van die anatomie wat jy nie sommer sal sien as hulle broeke aan het nie, hoewel dit in die geval van ‘n juris blykbaar soms gepas sou gewees het as hulle een op hulle gesigte gehad het. Maar Vlieg het geweet as hy lank genoeg soek, sal hy een of ander tyd die onderskeidende kenmerk tussen hulle kry. En hy het dit!

Dit was al die tyd reg voor sy neus, oftewel, hul neuse! Ja… dit is hul neuse. Vlieg sal nou nie so laag daal soos om persoonlik te raak oor groot neuse of dalk plat neuse nie. Hulle onderskei ‘n mens in elk geval maklik. En dan lyk dit of dit in elk geval maklik is vir meeste regslui om aan die neuse gelei te word deur, kom ons sê, hul kliënte. Maar een duidelike onderskeid lê in die kleur van hul neuse. Die rooies smelt gewoonlik mooi in met die rooi van die bartan op die res van die gesigte. Maar dié wat hulle nou regtig onderskei, is die wittes. Spierwit gepoeier! En glo maar vir Vlieg, as daar net een gevang is, beteken dit nie daar is net een van hulle nie! Een van die dae is dit dalk neusie verby!

Die mense hoor

Let wel: Hulle sê nie so nie! Die mense hoor van ‘n man wat sy mond uitspoel oor ander mense, bygestaan deur een van sy lojale en vroom vriendinne wat haar tog so heilig gerdra, maar... • Vergeet van sy vrou wat lank moes betaal, nadat haar werkgewer se boeke nie geklop het nie; en • van sy dogter wat eers die kontant by die huisagent gevat het en toe sommer ‘n hele handsak vol by die fiksblyplek gegaps het; en • van sy seun wat so lekker met die papegaaitwak deurmekaar is; en • van die diensorganisasie se briefhoof wat hy misbruik het om wanvoorstelling te pleeg en geld uit die VSA te kry vir mooi bokkies wat na jare steeds soek is; en • van die Volkswagen wat hy by ‘n ander bekende in die dorp gekoop maar deur ‘n slenter nooit ten volle betaal het nie; en • van die man van die krag wat alles verloor het, selfs sy huwelik, nadat hy ook deur ‘n slenter nie betaal is nie; en • van die huurtransaksie wat danksy die ander party se genade hom nie kniediep in die pekel gelaat het nie; en • van die teeklub se geld wat so skeef

aangewend word; en • van sy dinge in die donker parkeerterrein neffens die prokureurskantore; en • van die regulatoriese liggaam wat hom geskors het vanweë oneerlikheid waardeur mense om die bos gelei en verneuk is; en • van sy hofverskyning oor die BTW-geld; en • van sy nuwe streke wat hom weer by die regulatoriese liggaam in die sop kan laat beland, omdat hy al weer besig is om mense om die bos te lei... ensovoorts, en so meer en nóg meer. • Die mense hoor dié man word verwys na Lukas (in die Bybel, as hy een besit) en moet gerus daar gaan lees, veral hoofstukke 6:43, 11:37-43, 12:1-3 en 16:1-12. Die mense hoor verder • Daar kan gerus ‘n opvolg-rolprent gemaak word, genaamd “Daar doer in die Bosveld, so ‘lapa side’ van Tzaneen”. Die draaiboek, hoor die mense, is vol drama wat enige Alfred Hitchcock-riller na ‘n Sondagskoolpiekniek sal laat lyk... • Dat daar ‘n bosbokkie naas die rugbyveld wei, onbewus daarvan dat ‘n paar tierkatte gereed is om toe te slaan...

Lede van Samwu (die munisipale werkersvakbond) het gisteroggend met massa-aksie in Tzaneen begin. Die Bulletin het verlede week volledig berig oor die dispuut en Samwu se waarskuwing dat hulle met massa-aksie sal begin.

Swyg oor padwerk-chaos Die chaotiese toestande van padwerke rondom Tzaneen is besig om die laaste geduld uit motoriste te wurg, terwyl segsmanne van die padagentskap RAL (Roads Agency Limpopo) stilswyend toekyk. Werk aan die R71 tussen Tzaneen en Gravelotte het vasgehaak naby Venbeck, waar padbouers reeds sowat vier maande lank swoeg om klaar te kry. Ingenieurs en padbouers sê dit is ‘n werkie wat nie ‘n dag langer as twee maande behoort te geduur het nie, en selfs in ‘n paar weke afgehandel kon gewees het. Opslagklippe het op dié stukkie pad reeds talle motoriste se voorruite geëis. Die Georges Valley-pad is verlede jaar herseël, maar toe raak die geld glo op en die werk word gestaak. Onlangs is toe begin om die pad ‘n nuwe oppervlak te gee en daar is sowat tien kilometer gevorder, maar toe verdwyn die konstruksiemasjinerie oornag. Al wat oorgebly het, was vyf kilometer se gespande tou in die middel van die pad wat deur verkeer flenters getrap is, glo gespan om as gids vir die masjien wat die nuwe oppervlak lê, te dien. Oral staan waarskuborde langs die pad, maar die meeste van hulle is onwettig laag en nie ewe sigbaar nie. Die Bulletin het dié week herhaaldelik met die toesighoudende ingenieurs probeer kontak maak, maar hulle het nie op boodskappe gereageer nie en vermy ons duidelik. Mnr Bennett Manyathela van RAL het navrae na mnr Ismael Issa van Sanral verwys, maar sy telefoon bly al vir dae beset. Die toesighoudende ingenieurs kruip blykbaar ook vir die media weg en ons pogings om met iemand te praat,

het ons uiteindelik Woensdag na mnr Johan Stols gelei. Hy was op pad van Tzaneen na Johannesburg en het gevra dat ons hom net tyd gun om terug in sy kantoor te kom. Maar sedertdien beantwoord hy nie sy telefoon nie en het van sy belofte om ons te woord te staan, net mooi dadels gekom. Intussen het ritse padgebruikers skade opgedoen toe teer op die pad tussen Tzaneen en Letsitele gespuit is en die baan nie vir verkeer gesluit is nie. Stringe motors het langs die pad gestaan waar mense mismoedig gekyk het na die teervlekke op hul motors. Wat mense ontstel is dat Roadspan, wat die werk doen, aan Basil Read behoort — een van SA se grootste konstruksiemaatskappye wat op die Johannesburgse Effektebeurs genoteer is.

New hope for Tzaneen swimming pool! It seems there is new hope for the municipal pool in Tzaneen. Mr Thulani Twala, the communications and marketing manager of the Greater Tzaneen Municipality, confirmed that management had taken a decision to resuscitate the pool. According to the acting manager of parks and recreation, Ms Xoliswa Gala, the pool was in need of a lot of repairs and maintenance for which there were currently no money. Twala could not say when or how the resuscitation would be done, but the GTM can only consider the project when compiling the GTM’s new budget.

Herwinning van afvalprodukte in Tzaneen het nog ‘n lang pad om te loop, nadat die sogenaamde geelsak-projek van die munisipaliteit sowat drie jaar gelede doodgeloop het. Die munisipaliteit (GTM) is verantwoordelik vir die verwydering van huis- en nywerheidsafval in swart sakke en dit word regstreeks na die stortterrein vervoer. Geen sifting vir herwinbare produkte word deur die GTM gedoen nie, maar wel deur ‘n span van 25 werkers met wie ‘n herwinningsmaatskappy, MGK Box, ‘n ooreenkoms het om die herwonne materiaal by hulle te koop. Die hoof- uitvoerende beampte vir vaste afval van die GTM, mnr Henk Mienie, sê die Wet op Afvalstowwe het soveel bepalings wat nagekom moet word dat dit in dié stadium nie vir die GTM lonend is om self herwinning te doen nie. Die maak van kompos uit tuinvullis word egter by die stortterrein hervat, nadat die vorige poging tot stilstand gekom het. ‘n Nuwe kontrakteur is aangewys om dié herwinning binnekort te hervat. MGK Box, met sy hoofkantoor in Antimoonstraat 30 in die nuwe nywerheidsgebied, is verantwoordelik vir die grootste deel van Tzaneen se herwinningspoging. Hulle hanteer alle soorte papier, karton, plastiek, blikkies en glasbottels en lewer dit aan 27 verwerkingsaanlegte in Gauteng. Die GTM is in die proses om ‘n diensverskaffer vir herwinning aan te stel. Dié

diensverskaffer moet aan sekere vereistes voldoen, wat stryk met die bepalings van die wet se nasionale strategie vir afvalbestuur. Mnr Marius Koekemoer, die eienaar van MGK Box, sê hulle hanteer nagenoeg 240 ton herwinde materiaal per maand . Hiervan kom tussen 60 en 70 ton uit die stortterrein. Dit is egter net sowat 15% van die werklike potensiaal wat by die stortterrein beskikbaar is. Met die nodige hande-arbeid kan dit tot 50% opgestoot word. Benewens dié bron hanteer hulle herwinningsmateriaal van huishoudelike afval, dié van nywerhede en winkels, asook groot kommersiële boerderye en pakhuise. In die meeste gevalle word opleiding verskaf in die sifting en skeiding van stowwe, om die herwinningsproses te vergemaklik. “Dit kos ons nagenoeg R900 per ton om die herwinningsprodukte te lewer en ons verdien sowat R1 045 per ton daaruit.” Herwinning het volgens hom ‘n waardeketting wat nie onderskat moet word nie. Bruikbare weggooigoed is geld werd en in die visier van die wet, wat daarna streef om afvalstowwe in die alledaagse lewe te verminder. Koekemoer sê voornemende herwinners kan hul produkte na die depot in Antimoonstraat bring, of hom by 083 628 6080 bel.

Impasse

The current impasse in Limpopo’s government is clearly filtering through to municipalities and it is interesting — if not pathetic — to see how councillors who are normally rather arrogant, all of a sudden seem to be lost about where their loyalties should be. It is common knowledge that orders are given from the top (in any and all forms of government), but now councillors, and we can only presume senior officials as well, clearly don’t know whether they should adhere to the expected outgoing regime’s styles and policies, or whether they should wait for a new dispensation. Suddenly nobody seems to be keen to take decisions. And suddenly people who have in the past been only too keen to demonstrate their “powers”, are meek and mild and hardly outspoken about anything. The sad part of this situation is that essential work that should be done, will be stalled. Projects will be held back for all sorts of reasons (excuses) and service delivery will once more suffer. The sooner the central government fire the people who should be fired, the better.

Op 1 Februarie het die wêreld een van sy grootste digters verloor. Wislawa Szymborska is op 88-jarige ouderdom in haar slaap in haar huis in Krakow oorlede. Sy was `n beskeie, eenkant, Poolse vrou wat in 1996 die Nobelprys vir letterkunde ontvang het. Dit was vir haar so `n onverwagse skok dat dit `n paar jaar geneem het voor sy weer `n gedig geskryf het! Toe ek in 2010 in Krakow was, het ek by `n Engelse boekwinkel ingestap en besluit om `n digbundel van `n Poolse digter te koop. Ek het uitgestap met Szymborska onder my arm, totaal vreemd vir my. Ek het by `n straatkafee gaan sit en begin lees. Dit was soos `n venster wat in `n muwwe kamer oopgemaak word, en vars lug wat begin invloei. Luister na die begin en einde van “Love at First Sight”: They are sure that a sudden feeling united them. Beautiful is such certainty, but uncertainty more beautiful. They think that they didn’t know each other earlier, nothing ever happened between them. But what would they say: those streets, stairways, and corridors where they could have been passing each other for a long time? Every beginning, after all, is nothing but a sequel, and the book of events is always open in the middle.1

Bulletin supports any lawful action to end violence against women and children Cultural neglect Jurgen Witt, PO Box 700, Tzaneen, writes: Certain persons are lamenting about the neglect of “African Cultures” especially people from the political spectrum. As this is not quite true, allow me to supplement the list of museums in this province, already mentioned in your paper. Should I have overlooked some, I beg to be excused for this neglect. I would appreciate it very much to be informed about this. It is actually the Department of Sports Arts and Culture in Polokwane, who should be able to have a list of all existing museum available. This list should include the following information: The name of the museum, the town where situated and provincial road number, the physical and postal addresses, the telephone number etc. Opening hours must also be included. The main topics of the holdings or any specialised objects unlikely to be found at other museums should be mentioned. Most museums have not been visited by the writer for some years and changes could have taken place in the meantime. Starting in the north-west of this province:

early Sotho-settlement. Establishes before 1994. Mokopane: (Potgietersrus) Arend Diepering Museum. Houses mainly the collection accumulated by Mr A Diepering, a pioneer of collectors. There one finds almost anything from Stone-Age material to Voortrekker and Sotho utensils, as well as Early Hominid and Australopithecus replicas from the nearby Makapans Caves. Established before 1994. Modjadji: Near Modjadjiskloof within the cycad reserve. Small site museum. At last visit museums and contents have, however, vanished. Established before 1994. To have the area preserved as a nature reserve was encouraged by the famous wild life author and artist Mr Charles Astley-Maberly during the late 1930s (?). In the years towards the end of the 1960s Jurgen Witt in conjunction with the Native Commissioner Mr Liefeld had the total reserve fenced in. It contains some game. Established before 1994.

Also contains largest collection of masks and sculptures from Central Africa, north of Pretoria. Established in 1995. Masorini within the Kruger N.P. near Phalaborwa. This is a site Museum of a late Metal-Age settlement. Established before 1994. Letaba Elephant Museum situated at the Letaba Rest camp within the Kruger N.P. Has exhibition of the Greatest tuskers that once lived in the park. Founded before 1994. From this summary it can be seen that by far the greater majority of Museum situated within the boundaries of Limpopo Province and concerned with the cultures of the Bantu speaking societies date from before 1994.

Leker 4x4-roete in Tzn Roy Hurter van Tzaneen skryf per e-pos: ‘n Tyd gelede het die Regering in hul “alwysheid” besluit dat alle 4x4-roete-operateurs/

eienaars aan ‘n liggaam moet behoort om die “sport te normaliseer” (dink ek was die rede aangevoer). Dit beteken dat diesulkes en hul roetes en opleidingsmetodes en wat nog aan sekere vereistes en standaarde moet voldoen, alles waarmee geld natuurlik gepaard gaan. En ek bedoel nie inkomste vir hulle nie. O nee, dis vir die bankrot gesteelde staatskas(plaaslik sowel as die res van die land). Die 4x4-roetes gaan gewoonlik gepaard met natuurskoon, heerlike vars lug, pragtige uitsigte, kabbelende rivierstroompies en graderings (jy kan kies of jy ernstig 4x4 wil doen of net die rit geniet). Maar, ”all in all” is dit ‘n wonderlike ervaring wat jou jou lewelank bybly. Jy neem foto’s, bespreek die regte lyn om te neem, watter rat is die regte een vir die spesifieke helling, ensovoorts, want jy het die roete geloop en weet presies wat om waar te verwag. Tot jy in Claude Wheatley-straat, Tzaneen, kom! Geen natuurskoon, net “pavement mechanics”, geen vars lug nie, wel waterstroompies, maar hoe skoon is debateerbaar, geen uitsig nie, want die haarsalon ensovoorts versper dit totaal, geen stilte nie, slegs ‘n kakofonie van note wat teen mekaar meeding om musiek na te aap. Al ry jy elke dag daar, is daar elke dag nuwe “graderings”, want gister se gaatjie is vandag se No 10-kookpotgat in die pad. En die ore wat daar uitsteek is nie ‘n rot nie, dis ‘n donkie! “Hulle” sê die beste 4x4 is jou maatskappy-motor. Ek daag hulle uit, bring hom Claude Wheatleystraat toe en kyk of hy gaan hou! Weet “the powers that be” dat Tzaneen ‘n ongeregistreerde 4x4-roete het? Miskien moet ons maar stilbly daaroor, netnou is daar nie geld in die plaaslike munisipale-kas om die roete te registreer nie want lyk my daar’s ook nie geld om dit reg te maak nie. Ek dog ek vra maar net.

Pupils visit hospital Twelve Phedišang interns in Grades 9 to 12 visited the Mediclinic Tzaneen. The aim of the worksite visit was to provide the Phedišang pupils, who are either orphaned or vulnerable children, with the opportunity to learn more about the medical profession. The interns took a tour through the facilities and had the chance to interact with professional staff, who shared their expertise with these young people.

The Phedišang Program is a non-profit organization and provides support to seven drop-in centres in rural Ga-Sekororo between Tzaneen and Hoedspruit. Along with job shadowing, the centre also provides meals and after school activities for over 500 orphaned and vulnerable children. With the program the interns also learn about the necessary life skills and basic job skills.

Hero is still fighting Retha Nel

A man in the Mediclinic Tzaneen is fighting not to lose his leg after saving a colleague from the jaws of a crocodile. Mr Norman Chiwawu, an assistant manager at Mogalakwena River Lodge near Alldays, heard a scream when he was heading past a river. Running closer he saw one of his colleagues struggling in the water, his leg in the jaws of a crocodile. Chiwawu jumped in with a panga and managed to distract the crocodile into letting the man go. His colleague swam to shore but the crocodile grabbed Chiwawu by the leg before he could get out of the water as well. The crocodile rolled several times with Chiwawu’s leg in his jaws. He grabbed onto reeds growing on an island in the river and Die ATKV se Letaba-tak het hul jaarvergadering gehou.

Gaan stem tog vir jou raad Die landwye skoolbeheerraadverkiesing wat vandeesmaand gehou word is van enorme belang vir onderwys. Die Skolewet is een van die mees progressiewe onderwyswetgewings en gee aan ouers meer seggenskap oor hul kinders se opvoeding as in enige ander land in die wêreld. Elke ouer het belang by die beheer en bestuur van die skool waar sy/haar kind is. Nogtans is ouers geneig om afsydig te wees hieroor en baie skole sukkel om ‘n 15%-kworum te kry, wat nodig is om ‘n wettige verkiesing te hou. ‘n Skoolbeheerraad bestaan uit ouerlede (altyd in die meerderheid), onderwysers, administratiewe personeel en in die geval van hoërskole selfs leerlinge. Die raad kan besluit oor die taalbeleid, die toelatingsbeleid, die gedragskode, vakopsies, die tye van die skooldag, buitemuurse aktiwiteite en selfs skooldrag. Verder moet dit die skool se fisiese eiendom en finansies beheer en administreer. Die raad is ook verantwoordelik vir aanbevelings oor die aanstelling van personeellede, selfs die skoolhoof.

hit the crocodile on the nose, causing it to let go of his leg. He dragged himself up out of the water and waited for help to come. He saw all the blood and thought that he was going to die. Workers, meanwhile, had called Mr Christiaan Coetsee, one of the Game Reserve’s directors. The group struggled to safely reach Chiwawu on the island. Chiwawu spoke of how Coetsee then carried him on his back. “At times we even had to crawl. I’m covered in scratches from thorns. Chris probably looks worse...” He emphasises how grateful he was for what Coetsee endured to save his life. Chiwawu’s rescuers turned a car into a makeshift ambulance and took him to a clinic in Louis Trichardt, from where he was transferred to Mediclinic Tzaneen. Despite the excellent care he is being given, Chiwawu is very worried about his leg, as there is a possibility that it might be amputated. Dr Alex Revelas, an orthopaedic surgeon from Tzaneen, will be performing several more operations in an attempt to save his leg — and he can’t stop singing Revelas’ praise.

Vermeende dwelmObituary: Guy Matthews smous aangekeer Guy Richard Matthews died peacefully at home in Agatha early on Monday morning, 27 February 2012 after a long and brave battle with cancer. He came to South Africa as a little boy of six with his parents after the War. It took three days to fly from England to South Africa then. He was sent to school at Louw Geldenhuys Laerskool in Johannesburg where he learnt good Afrikaans. At the age of eight he went to St John’s College as a boarder and matriculated there in 1959. He is well remembered for the creation of the Coach House Hotel, a splendid country hotel on one of the sites of the original Zeederberg staging posts. The Coach House offered world-class hospitality in luxurious comfort and scenic splendour. Guy was a hands-on hotelier who with his team of staff, personified the courtesy, efficiency and professionalism for which this country hotel stood. It was the first country hotel to be awarded five stars and was judged the best country hotel in South Africa for four years running. Another first for the area was the establishment of the Agatha Spa, overlooking the magnificent Wolkberg mountains. Guy had a particular love for wine and talent for wine selection. The Coach House and Magoebaskloof Hotel cellars boasted a splendid choice, thanks to his regular attendance at the annual Nederburg wine auction. Guy was an ardent supporter of all things local too such that the kitchens at both establishments were laden with milk, meat, honey and vegetables from surrounding farms in support of local farmers and their labour. Guy and Jane Matthews first moved to the Lowveld in 1973 to farm mangoes in partnership with the late Gordon McNeil on Dindinnie Farm, near Ofcolaco. Guy fell in love with the area and was dedicated to the local

products and people, expanding the company under his directorship with an objective to support and employ as many people as possible. Every arm of Agatha Investments was developed under this premise. The Coach House Nougat Company was started almost solely to use up Macadamia nuts and provide local women with employment and thus empower the communities. He is also fondly remembered by many for all the schools he helped build. Guy used his connection to his country of birth to raise funds to build primary and secondary schools in the old Lebowakgomo areas. Over several years he managed to raise enough funds and supervise the building of 9 schools. He also organised the establishment and running of a local farm clinic for the surrounding farming communities and served for several years in the local commando and as the chairman of the Mango Growers Association. His contributions were acknowledged with a Rotary award for services to the community. When Guy was diagnosed with cancer in 2007, he and Jane embarked on several wonderful holidays passing through London and visiting friends in all corners of the globe. Guy is much loved and will be dearly missed by his wife Jane and their three children, Pippa, Richard, Alison, his son-in-law, Nicolas, and his grandchildren Chloé and Alexandre. The service will be on Thursday 8 March 2012 at St Peter’s Church, corner Agatha and Hermanus Streets, Tzaneen, at 12:00. Please accept this kind intimation and if so desired, donations, in lieu of flowers, to be sent to Hospice Tzaneen: FNB, Tzaneen; Acc no: 62212333380; Branch code 260349. Hospice Tzaneen: 083 263 5894.

• Van bl 1 is aan ons bekend. ‘n Tussenganger is gebruik om die aflewering te doen en sy is kort daarna deur die polisie opgespoor. Na verneem word, het sy die dwelms vir ander mense aangeskaf. Sy het die polisie na die “klante” geneem en hulle is bereid om voortaan met dwelmondersoeke hulp te verleen. Verlede week se optrede is deel van ‘n meesterplan in Tzaneen wat ingespan word om dwelmmisbruik en die handel in

dwelms uit te roei. ‘n Deel van die optrede is om dwelmverslaafdes na vore te roep en deel te word van ‘n ondersteunersgroep. Ouers wat vermoed hul kinders is by dwelms betrokke, word versoek om saam tewerk. ‘n Man wat hom beywer vir die rehabilitasie van dwelmverslaafdes is mnr Josef van Dyk. Hy werk saam met die polisie se dwelmtaakspan, maar spits hom toe op die ondersteunersgroep. Hy is te alle tye bereikbaar by 083 441 2905.

Young presenter is a role model At the age of 16, Nonkululeko Maringa of Mapapila, Malamulele, is already a household name in the community she lives in, reports Orlando Chauke from Giyani. She presents a program at Munghana Lonene FM called “state your mind,” which is broadcast on Sundays at 13:30, when kids between the ages of eight and twelve get to raise issues and she offers her inputs in a dialogue. Speaking about her life as a young presenter on radio, Nonkululeko, a Gr 11 pupil, said the program has made a big difference in her life — since she does not only offer her inputs, but “I also learn from them.” She has grown a lot in popularity. But unlike oth-

er teenagers who would easily be swept away by fame, she said fame does not cloud her judgement when it comes to education. She tries hard to make sure that she balances her school work and her duties as a presenter. Nonkululeko plans to study for a degree in media studies. Asked about her daughter, her mother, Tintswalo Rikhotso, said she first had reservations about Nonkululeko becoming a radio presenter. She thought it would distract her from her education. However, she is happy that her daughter has proved otherwise. Her principal at Mbhanyele High School said Nonkululeko was a role model at the school, and that she was a very well disciplined person.

Girls go missing Another girl gas gone missing in the same area where 14 year old Mahlatse Mendy Ramalobela of Thabantshwana went missing when going to school in Sekgosese in October last year. The Gr 8 pupil’s decomposed body was found under the bed in a vacant house, chained and undressed, late in January. Angry villagers confronted her father Enock Ramalobela (50) and his wife, demanding to know what had happened to the girl. Ramalobela, who had been a suspect since the girl’s disappearance, was then stoned to death and his body burnt, whilst his wife managed to flee. One arrest has been made.

won’t quit as long as he had legs to walk and eyes to see. Baloyi runs a boxing club at Malamulele, which has now expanded to include body building and marathon running. He said he has a passion for helping people unearth their talents and that, as long as there is no one in his area doing what he does, he would not quit. “I’m doing this out of passion for sports and also to help people realise their talents,” he said. Asked how he started, Baloyi said by training his son, before he started a boxing club where he trained others as well. Recalling back on his life, he said boxing has helped him earn respect in many areas. “As a boxing trainer I have been to Barcelona, Cuba and London, places I would not have dreamt of as a person who left school after passing st 6,” he said. Meanwhile the chairperson of the business forum in Malamulele, Dr Jan Nkuna, praised Baloyi for helping the community by taking the kids off the streets into his boxing club. LEFT: Eric Baloyi keeps a watchful eye on two young aspirant boxers in the ring.

This week’s fitness tip Ettienne van Wyngaardt (Fitness specialist) If one of your parents is diagnosed with cancer or any life threatening illness, you should go and look at their lifestyle. Are their eating habits unhealthy by consuming too many sugars, or alcohol or too much stress or whatever? You should look at it and change it, because the chances are there that you will also develop that illness if you follow the same lifestyle. Genetics can play a big role in this circumstances and the same thing that triggered your parent’s body, can trigger your body. That’s why it is so important to know what is good and what is bad for your body.
