Vlieg reik na die sterre, maar ruik iets aan ‘n planeet!

Gesteelde kabels ontwrig skousake

Verskeie groot ondernemings langs die R71 in Tzaneen is reeds twee weke lank telefonies onbereikbaar, nadat diewe ‘n groot deel van die telefoonkabels tussen Star Spares en die Fairview Hotel gesteel het.

Die skoukantoor sit hande in die hare, want dringende korrespondensie moet uitgestuur word. Hul telekommunikasie is beperk tot ‘n selfoon. Die nommer is 082 941 4136.

Tzaneen Swaarvoertuie is ook aangewese op selfoondiens. Telkom het glo laat weet dat daar nie genoeg geld in die begroting is om die lyne te vervang nie. Die lyne na twaalf besighede is gesteel, maar Telkom kan net een lyn – dié van die skoukantoor – vervang.

Wanneer dit gedoen sal word, is nie bekend nie.

Vlieg praat met die volk, en krap waar dit jeuk!

ONDER: Inwoners van Florapark in Tzaneen was die afgelope naweek erg omgekrap oor ‘n straat wat glo met die toestemming van die munisipale verkeershoof, mnr Malatji, gesluit is, om ‘n tent vir ‘n partytjie daar op te slaan. Ons het Malatji nie om kommentaar genader nie, omdat hy die standpunt huldig dat hy niks aan die koerant hoef te verduidelik nie. Na die beste van ons wete mag ‘n straat egter nie lukraak en sonder behoorlike kennisgewing en vooraf oorlegpleging vir prettighede gesluit word nie. Ons fotograaf is ook gedreig toe ons die foto daar geneem het, klaarblyklik deur een van die partytjiegangers.

Soos wat dit reeds alombekend is, is Vlieg eintlik iemand van min woorde.

Hy sit mos maar eerder eenkant in sy stilligheid en luister, as om ‘n mening oor alles en nog wat uit te spreek.

So luister Vlieg maar hoe kerm en kla ‘n ieder en elk alewig oor diens en dienslewering. Die algemene opsomming van sulke klaagliedere is mos maar altyd dat “diens in hierdie dorp nie bestaan nie”!

Vlieg kyk maar altyd eers wie die klaer of klaagster is, voordat hy hom te veel aan sulke treurmares steur. Want elke storie het mos maar sy twee kante.

Nou nie dat Vlieg nie self al ‘n bloutjie of twee geloop het nie, wat hom laat dink het dat diens eerder ‘n vierletterwoord moes gewees het.

Net verlede week moes Vlieg weer die wrede uitwerking van diens, of eerder gebrek daaraan, met sy eie twee oë aanskou. En dit was nie ‘n mooi gesig nie.

Vlieg is inderhaas deur een van sy vriende ontbied om dringend ‘n sterk pot tee te kom maak.

Hierdie goeie vriend van hom moes gelawe

word... almal het gedink hy is met die maan gepla. Maar toe die tee se uitwerking eers intree, kom almal agter hy is nie met die maan gepla nie, maar sommer met die hele sonnestelsel.

Eers het niemand verstaan wat hy sê oor sy blink driepuntster wat hy in iemand se “black hole” wil indruk waar die son nie sal skyn nie, en toe weer iets met ‘n “f” oor iemand anders die duisternis inwerp!

Gelukkig was die tee baie sterk, sodat almal gou kon agterkom hy het eintlik net sy motor vir ‘n diens gevat, en die soort diens gekry waaroor almal so kla. Toe dit lyk of hy tot sy sinne kom en vertel dat die mechanic gesê het hulle het die fout met die ratkas in die asbak gekry, toe ruik Vlieg eers weer ‘n slag aan die tee om seker te maak!

Nou sien Vlieg NASA het ‘n satelliet in ‘n wentelbaan om Mercurius gesit, en hoop om baie te leer oor dié planeet.

As Vlieg so na sy vriende luister, gaan NASA baie gou agterkom dat daar niks aangaan nie!

Family gets a new house

Beaunice Machitela A family that barely had a roof over their heads enjoyed their dreams come true when they received a newly built ánd furnished house.

Ms Lucy Maake from GaMogoboya in Tlhabine Village, 33 kilometres outside Tzaneen, had been living in a two room mud structure with her four adult children and four grandchildren.

She is unemployed and lives off small jobs she does for fellow villagers. She was in no position to build a house for here family.

The provincial department of local government and housing in partnership with the SABC through the “Celebrity Build a House” campaign built the six roomed house and also furnished it.

The handover drew a massive crowd who witnessed the joyous event. Since its inception the Celebrity Build a House initiative has built more than thirty houses in the province.

• It’s election time and scoring political points is important

Extravagant party to celebrate... the Party Louis Roux An amount of at least R1,5 million was spent on an election-inspired celebration day by the Department of Trade and Industry (Dti) in the Tours district outside Tzaneen last Saturday. It is claimed that the party was held to launch the nation-wide corporate movement among emergent farmers. However, these farmers failed over years to get any financial assistance from government.

The event was held for 3 500 guests in large marquee tents by the department’s Small Enterprise Development Agency (SEDA) on a state

farm near the Tours dam, occupied by fifteen struggling farmers. It took three bulldozers two days to level the terrain for the bash.

It was attended by an impressive group of VIP’s, such as the deputy minister of the Dti (Ms Elizabeth Thebeta), the mayor of the Greater Mopani District Municipality (Mr Joseph Matlou), the MEC for agriculture in Limpopo (Ms Dipuo Letsatsi-Duba), the mayor of the GTM (Mr OJ Mushwana) and several other prominent politicians.

The farm was selected as venue for the launch “because the fifteen farmers success-

Popular Dana loves the Lowveld

For the first time since coming to South Africa in 1998, Dana Winner is now enjoying a true safari holiday at Thornybush at Hoedspruit.

What would have been a ten day working trip for the popular Belgium singer and her husband Mark, to South Africa, took a turn for the better.

“This was not part of our plan, but a friend (Edith Venter, well-known socialite from Johannesburg) insisted that we spend some time here,” says Dana after an exciting early morning game drive.

Dana and Mark arrived on March 6 for a jam packed programme, including TV interviews and meetings (with amongst others Evita Bezuidenhout).

“Everything is free and open here. I love being as close as possible to nature and I enjoy the quietness. Having the ani-

mals roam freely seems unnatural to us though. In Belgium you have to go to a zoo to see these animals,” says Dana.

“South Africa feels like a second home to me and I love coming to visit. The climate is wonderful and you are very lucky to have so much open space. I believe people should spend more time in nature.”

When it comes to South African cuisine Dana enjoys a braai, “because it is such good meat”.

“South Africa has a mix of things that make me comfortable here, especially the people. Once they have accepted you, they treat you as one of them. I also enjoy the African time and that’s fine with me, while I am here. In Europe you have to be punctual.”

Dana will be back in December for her popular Christmas concert.

fully employed more than 800 people without a single contribution from the state”.

Fact is, however, that these farmers nagged several government departments for years with the help of facilitators for financial assistance, without success. Eventually Nedbank came to their rescue with a high risk loan and they were awarded a contract by the company Peppadew International to grow piquant peppers.

To add insult to injury, the facilitators and Nedbank were ingored and not invited to the party.

According to the leader of the group of farmers, Mr Simon Mametja, the event was a Only the best was huge success and promises were made that good enough for the the Dti will assist in the marketing process of party in the veld. future production.

Observers at the launch, however, saw it as a pre-election stunt, hijacking the success of the efforts achieved by people in the private sector. They fear the downfall of the Tours farmers within months if financial assistance from the government doesn’t come soon.

All the equipment on the farm are paid for through private loans, but a huge amount in production debt is still outstanding.

At this stage their main source of income is the contract with Peppadew International.

They also consider a variety of other cash crops and bananas, provided that state assistance turn up in the near future.

We could not get hold of any of the senior ANC politicians in the area for comment before going to print.

First with the news that matters

25 Maart 2011

Budding young artist @ work Sue Ettmayr Born and bred in Haenertsburg, twenty year-old Donny van Wyk speaks about his all consuming love for art. He discovered art at the age of fifteen and now lives breathes and tastes art and has a burning desire to share his talent.

From Haenertsburg Primary School van Wyk went to Merensky, followed by a two-year stint at Pro Arte in Pretoria and then back to Merensky for the last two years.

Allan Adams of the Haenertsburg Art Shop supplies him with all his and his pupils’ art needs. He gives private lessons and also teaches at Merensky High. His youngest pupil is fourteen and the oldest is 68. The groups range from thirteen to seven aspiring artists.

Van Wyk’s favourite theme is figures and portraits. He finds the human form challenging, as every person is different with different proportions and skin tones. He’s a realist and likes to see fine detail. He mixes realism with impressionism, as he likes to exaggerate a feature or a focal point.

Van Wyk shows two of his favourite art pieces in the photo. The one is an oil of the mystical Serala Mountains (Wolkberg). The

other is a poignant charcoal of a child called Simon.

When Sapekoe closed down, Simon (then only 5) was abandoned by his parents. Van Wyk captured Simon’s insecurity and fear three years later. He said, “Haenertsburg is my inspiration and in portraits I like looking at expressions and capturing a certain point of emotion.”

Magistrate Rambau is still trying to reduce his bail The controversy surrounding senior regional magistrate Ronnie Rambau continues.

This follows yet another attempt by him to have his bail conditions reduced, this time in the Sekgosese Magistrate’s Court last Wednesday.

During his court appearance, Rambau launched several personal attacks on one of the State’s witnesses, Capt Dieter Meyer. Meyer, who had already testified against Rambau in his pending corruption case in Musina, is one of the people whose names appear on Rambau’s alleged hit list.

The list, compiled in Rambau’s own handwriting, contains the names of nine state officials involved in Rambau’s corruption case. After this list was discovered and handed to the police, Rambau was arrested in January and charged with conspiracy to commit murder. It is alleged that Rambau had paid two witch doctors R850 and R3 500 respectively, to have the people on the list killed.

During his court appearance Rambau defended his application and said that he wished to study at the university in Thohoyandou, hence his desire to be able to leave Louis Trichardt. His present bail conditions prohibit him from leaving town. He also said that he wanted to be able to visit his house in Maxambo Village. Another reduction he asked for was to report to the police only once a day, and preferably not too early in the morning. According

to him, it is too dark in the morning and he is afraid that he will be killed by Meyer.

The State challenged Rambau’s claims and said that Rambau’s sudden notion to study was quite bizarre because, only two weeks ago, he had no money to pay his lawyers and had to apply for a state attorney. Meyer expressed the opinion that if the court were to reduce Rambau’s bail conditions, this would have a severe impact on further investigations.

It was at this stage that Rambau asked Meyer whether he had ever threatened any of the people on the list since he was released on bail. Meyer testified that even though nothing could be linked directly to Rambau, there had been certain incidents reported at the homes of four of the people on the list, including himself.

According to Meyer, there is proof that Rambau had visited Louis Trichardt’s state prison at least twice, both times under an alias. He further testified that since Rambau’s prison visits started, three suspect vehicles had been spotted outside the homes of regional prosecutor Hilke Janse van Rensburg, senior prosecutor Reino Mostert and regional magistrate Chris Mtombeni. The very same vehicles were also spotted at Meyer’s Pretoria residence. He also said that Janse van Rensburg’s dog had been poisoned two weeks ago.

In his defence, Rambau said that he had many friends that he visited in prison. He later claimed that his sister supplied vegetables to the prison and that he had helped her to carry these into the prison.

Rambau’s reduction of bail application was postponed for judgement.

Kleinhandel-motorbedryf se belange beskerm Verkose ampsdraers van die RMI (Retail Motor Industry Organization) het in Tzaneen vergader om te verseker dat die belange van die bedryf beskerm word, met die oog op die volgende bestaande en voorgestelde wetgewing: • Ve r b r u i k e r s beskermingswet • Arbeidswetwysigings • Finansiële Intelligensiesentrumwet • Swart Ekonomiese Bemagtiging.

Die belangrikheid van gesamentlike verteenwoordiging

en aktiewe deelname van RMI-lede in die streek is beklemtoon.

Tesame hiermee is die feit ook onderstreep dat sake-eienaars en -bestuurders op die hoogte van sake moet wees, met betrekking tot die konstante veranderings, asook uitdagings wat daagliks in die sake-omgewing gestel word.

Die RMI is die toonaangewende gesag in die motorbedryf wat die lewensvatbaarheid en belange van meer as 7300 lede bevorder en beskerm.

Johan weg na lyding Na ‘n lyding van sowat vyf maande weens breinkanker is mnr Johan Barnard (51) van Tzaneen verlede Woensdag oorlede.

Hy was ‘n aktiewe en geesdriftige lid van Tzaneen se rolbalklub en het ook die spel goed bemeester. In die organisering van die Hervormde Kerk se plaaslike gemeente se gewilde jaarlikse karnaval het hy etlike jare lank ‘n sleutelrol gespeel. Hy het ook lank in ander ampte in die gemeente gedien.

Johan was ‘n baanbreker in die vestiging

van vloeibare kunsmis in die Laeveld en hy was enkele jare gelede intens betrokke by die oprigting van die eerste sodanige installasie vir vloeibare kunsmis in die streek. Sy kinders, Ruan en Lané, en sy ma Martie het gevra dat almal wat hulle bygestaan het tydens sy siekbed en heengaan deur via die Bulletin bedank word. ‘n Roudiens word more-oggend (Saterdag) om 10:00 in die Nederduitse Hervormde kerk in Tzaneen ter nagedagtenis aan hom gehou.

R3m spent on party Beaunice Machitela Mopani District Municipality celebrated its tenth year of service last week, by hosting a series of events to commemorate the milestone.

The first occasion was a church service at Giyani stadium, which was followed by a gala dinner at Karibu lodge.

The main event took place at the Nkowankowa stadium.

The event drew crowds and some were transported by courtesy buses from as far out as Giyani. The crowd received a sponsored lunch and free ANC T-shirts, ahead of the local municipal elections on 18 May. The event showcased big names in the SA entertainment pool such as DJ Cleo, L’Vovo, Chomee, Selaelo Selota and Thomas Chauke.

This elaborate celebration allegedly cost the MDM a shocking R3 million.

The MDM said in a press statement “the celebrations follow after the council resolved that the district must bring people together to celebrate service delivery and the existence of the municipality”.

Ms Mashadi Mathosa, the MDM’s head of communication, was on sick leave and therefore unavailable for comment regarding the cost of the function.

Dit is belangrik vir die motoris om te weet dat lede van die RMI ‘n gedragskode onderskyf en voldoen aan neergelegde standaarde ten opsigte van toerusting en gekwalifiseerde personeel.

Dit is verkiesingtyd en ons kan ons maar staal vir politieke partye se gebruiklike verkiesingtydmanewales.

Kulkunstoertjies gaan aan die orde wees, beloftes gaan tsoenami-formaat kry, spogpraatjies oor wat alles bereik is gaan ons soos ‘n aardskudding tref en die komplimente aan kiesers gaan om ons fluit soos die koeëls tans in die Midde-Ooste fluit.

Die eerste skote het reeds geklap. By Tours is belastinggeld op ‘n yslike “tuinparty” geblaas, om mense te oortuig dat die regering se hervestiging van beginnerboere ‘n reusesukses is. Intussen is dit nie die waarheid nie.

Mopani se distriksmunisipaliteit het hul verjaarsdag met ‘n spandabele fees gevier, want stemme kan met kos en drank en vermaak gekoop word.

Beloftes word reeds gemaak dat die sosiale staat wat ons geword het, mense nog verder gaan bederf met toelaes en pensioene.

Strate en paaie word met ongekende haas hier en daar gelap (dit bly steeds lapwerk met ‘n beperkte leeftyd). Strukture wat onwettig opgerig is, sal afgebreek en teen die eienaars opgetree word, maar — en dit is ‘n groot voorwaarde — eers na die verkiesing.

Mense kan nie nou ontstel word met lawwighede soos wetsgehoorsaamheid nie.

Die binnegevegte is hard aan die gang, want politici, ongeag hul amateurstatus, vry na poste waar die beste betaal word of die meeste invloed geld.

Diegene wat nie benoem is nie of wat te laag op die kandidatelyste is, soek vergelding. (Daar is sommige wat rede tot ontevredenheid het) Die hartseer is dat niks regtig noemenswaardig gaan verander nie. Niks gaan werklik verbeter nie. Want vir politici gaan dit om baie woorde en min dade. Dit is hul onbetwiste handelsmerk.

En dit gaan vir hulle om eiebelang. Slegs mense met ‘n ego wat groter as die postuur is, vorder werklik in die politiek. Vir nederigheid is daar in die politieke spel nie ruimte nie. Waar daar wel ruimte is, is in politici se beursies en bankrekenings, of dan hul familielede en vriende s’n.

Ja, ons stereotipeer en dit mag nie. Maar dit is deesdae moeilik om dit te vermy.

Tongknopers Malkoeisiekte is iets wat nie bestaan nie. Die siekte is malbeessiekte. Dit is sponsagtige bees-enkefalopatie (Engels: bovine spongiform encephalopathy, BSE). Die variasie by die mens staan as Creutzfeld Jakob-siekte (CJS) bekend. Ongelooflik en verstommend. Ongelooflik is ‘n sterk kommentaar-woord wat soos ander sterk byvoeglike naamwoorde en bywoorde spaarsaam gebruik moet word. Vermy dit (byvoorbeeld ongelooflik mooi/sterk/slim), behalwe wanneer jy ‘n spreker aanhaal. Gebruik liewer verbasend of verstommend, wat minder sterk is. Ongenaakbaar. ‘n Mens wat ongenaakbaar is (Engels: unapproachable), is stug/ontegemoetkomend en hou ander op ‘n afstand. Dié woord word ook verkeerdelik gebruik vir onverbiddelik, meedoënloos, onbeleef, ontoeskietlik of onversetlik. ‘n Landstreek is onherbergsaam, en ‘n beleid is ontoegeeflik of ontoeskietlik.

Straler en straalvliegtuig is sinonieme. Jet setters is mense wat rondjakker op stralers; is stralerjakkeraars (nie: stralerjakkers nie!) of straalritsers of die stralerkliek.

Why do supermarkets make the sick walk all the way to the back of the store to get their prescriptions while healthy people can buy cigarettes at the front?

Why do people order cheeseburgers, fries, and a diet coke?

Why is lemon juice made with artificial flavouring, and dishwashing liquid made with real lemons?

Die tegnologie, darem Henna Minnaar van “Constantia”, Letsitele, skryf: Wat ons darem sonder die tegnologiese ontwikkeling sou gemaak het...!

Dit is die versugting van baie van die jonger geslag — en ons oueres ook wat al die nuwe ontwikkelinge/verwikkelinge leer hanteer het.

Vroeër jare het ons met plaas-telefoonlyne reggekom met elke huurder op ‘n gemeenskaplike lyn wat sy eie lui leer ken het: een korte, twee langes, ens. Toe kom die outomatiese sentrales, wat ‘n groot verbetering op die plaaslynstelsel was. En toe... die onmisbare ergernis, waarvoor daar al hoeveel kere moord gepleeg is, naamlik ons liewe selfone. Dit maak jou werk ook weliswaar makliker en/of vinniger — maar dis ook deesdae ‘n aanvegbare stelling.

Maar is dit altyd al die baie frustrasies en gesukkel werd? Dit maak jou wel enige tyd en oral bereikbaar — of nie?

Telkom se lyne word afgesny en kabels gesteel. Ons sug maar en sê: “Ai tog, die Nuwe S.A.” Maar nou: Telkom wil of kan nie meer bekostig om die ou lyne te herstel nie, weens die baie kabeldiefstalle, en om alles te kroon is Vodacom se selsein waar ons hier naby Die Eiland woon feitlik elke dag een of ander tyd vir lang rukke — soms die hele aand en nag — af. (Ek weet nie van die ander verskaffers nie).

Wat staan ons te doen? Kla ons by Vodacom daaroor, gee hulle te kenne dat hulle moeg gesukkel is met Telkom om die kabels te herstel. Ons is weer moeg gesukkel met Vodacom. Hoe maak ‘n mens nou kontak: tuis, in jou besigheid of boerdery, jou vervoerbesigheid, of oumense wat op die kleinhoewes woon en wie se enigste kontak met die buitewêreld die selfoon is?

Ons wil nie onnodig kla nie, maar het ons nie rede nie? Dalk sou die regering voor die volgende verkiesing kan begin om die handelaars in koper vas te vat — indien hulle sou kon deurkom na Telkom of Vodacom-Sonder-Sein.

• Dit is maar dieselfde met die ander verskaffers. Ons moet dalk maar trek! Maar waarheen?— Redakteur

Hoe werk gebed (nie) Ek lees in William Barclay se outobiografie die volgende oor gebed: “Omdat ek in God, en in die liefde van God glo, glo ek in gebed.

Maar deur die loop van jare het ek sekere dinge oor gebed geleer wat ek dink belangrik is om te onthou...

Eerstens glo ek dat God nie vir my iets sal doen wat ek eintlik self kan doen nie. Gebed moet nooit gesien word as `n manier om werk te ontduik nie....

Tweedens dink ek dit is nie reg om vir materiële dinge te vra nie...

Ek mag bid om die beste gebruik te maak van wat ek het en om so goed as moontlik my werk te doen waar ek is, maar ek is nie veronderstel om te bid vir materiële dinge nie. Jesus het geweier om sy mag te gebruik om klippe in brode te verander.

Derdens — en hierdie dink ek is die belangrikste les wat ek deur die loop van jare geleer het — dink ek gebed kan nooit `n ontduiking of vermyding wees, asof gebed ons moet red van die dinge wat vir ons moeilik is om te hanteer of pyn gaan veroorsaak as ons dit moet hanteer nie. In Getsemane het Jesus ontdek dat daar geen vermyding van die kruis kon wees nie... Gebed stel ons nie in staat om `n weg rondom die moeilike saak te vind nie, maar om reg deur die moeilike saak te gaan, nie om dit te vermy nie, maar dit te aanvaar en te hanteer. Gebed is nie vermyding nie, maar oorwinning...

Vierdens glo ek dat gebed beteken om in die teenwoordigheid van God te wees... Daarom glo ek ook daaraan om vir mense by God in te tree in gebed. Ek verstaan nie hoe dit werk om by God vir mense in te tree in gebed nie. Ek weet dat God baie beter as ek weet wat my geliefdes nodig het... Maar ek weet ook wat dit vir my in moeilike tye beteken het toe mense vir my by God ingetree het. Ek weet nie hoe gebed werk nie, maar ek weet ook nie hoe elektrisiteit werk nie.

Ek het nie nodig om te weet hoe iets werk voordat ek dit gebruik en daarop staatmaak nie.”1 Mooi naweek! ¹ Barclay, William, A Spiritual Autobiography, pp 46 -48. Eie vertaling.

Tzaneen kyk eerder na krieket as IDP-sake

Tzaneeners kan solank voorberei op ‘n styging van 20,38% in die kragtariewe wat aan die begin van die nuwe finansiële jaar sal inskop, terwyl die res van die dienstetariewe met 6% sal styg.

Dat die dorp se inwoners nie juis oor die tariefstrukture van die GTM gepla is nie, was die afgelope week duidelik. ‘n Goed geadverteerde Geïntegreerde Ontwikkelings-planvergadering (IDP) is in die saal van die Laerskool Tzaneen gehou, maar benewens die drie DA-raadslede, twee amptenare en die media het net elf mense opgedaag om daaraan deel te neem.

Mnr Graham McComb van die DA het gesê vanjaar se konsep-begroting beloop R750m, wat sal bestaan uit diens- en belastingtariewe (R408m), staatstoekennings en subsidies (R283m) en ander inkomstes (R59m).

Die plaas Montrose langs die Letabarivier by Letsitele het Woensdag ‘n saailing in die grond gedruk, wat in die komende jare ‘n yslike boom kan word. Soveel landbou-aktiwiteite op een perseel het die Laeveld nog nie beleef nie. Die Langs die Oever Boeredag was die eerste in sy soort en ‘n dawerende sukses, en die organiseerders is

‘n Ligpunt is die R123m wat bewillig word vir herstelwerk en onderhoud van die infrastruktuur (paaie en stormwaterdreinering). Die GTM besef dat meer as dit nodig is om behoorlike onderhoudwerk te doen en dit sal spesiale aandag in toekomstige begrotings geniet.

Vir salarisse word R169m voorsien, wat 28,3% van die bedryfsbegroting verteenwoordig. Toelaes vir raadslede sal R16m beloop en R13m sal as slegte skuld afgeskryf word. Hoofaankope is hoofsaaklik elektrisiteit, waarvoor R208m voorsien word.

Verskeie projekte wat reeds verlede jaar op die IDP-lys van voorkeure geplaas is, is nog nie voltooi nie. Dit bly egter in die beplanNet ‘n handjievol belastingbetalers het opgedaag om aan die IDP-vergadering deel te neem. ningstroom en behoort in die nuwe finansiële jaar meer aandag te geniet.

Sapekoe kry weer lewe

oorgehaal vir ‘n soortgelyke boerefees volgende jaar. Die uitstallers was in hul skik met die terrein en die haarfyn beplanning. Sowat 500 mense het opgedaag en tot laat gekuier. Vyftig trekkers en implemente van dertien verskillende fabrikate was te sien. Onder die bome was 44 uitstallers, terwyl die biertuin en kostafels tot laat stampvol gebly het.

Vrou verloor stryd vs ‘slaner’ Die regstryd van me Romé Malan van Tzaneen teen haar vermeende aanvallers in 2008 het misluk, nadat haar saak teen ‘n landdros van Boksburg en sy vrou deur die hof in Tzaneen teruggetrek is.

Sy staan nou tereg op twee aanklagte van crimen injuria en aanranding met die doel om ernstig te beseer.

Die klagte is deur die landdros en sy vrou, mnr Abel en me Domicile Shilubana, teen haar ingedien.

Die ietwat tingerige Malan sê die hele

saak “maak van die gereg ‘n bespotting”, want die Shilubanas is baie groter as sy.

Die saak spruit uit ‘n voorval op 12 Desember 2008, toe sy en die Shilubanas ‘n onderonsie by die hek van ‘n woonstelgebou in Morganstraat gehad het.

Sy woon daar en wou inry, maar die landdros en sy vrou het voor die hek parkeer.

Toe sy vir hulle op

die toeter blaas om pad te gee, het hulle glo aggressief geraak.

Sy het in ‘n stadium probeer om die landdros se motorsleutels te vat, maar hy het haar glo teen die motordeur vasgedruk en haar met sy vrou se hulp geslaan.

Malan is na die tyd

hospitaal toe om vir haar beserings behandel te word. Die mediese verslag sê haar regteroog en regterwang was erg geswel, haar bokaak was ook geswel, haar onderkaak was gekneus, haar neus was skeef na links en sy het kneusplekke

aan die elmboog en regterskouer gehad.

Nou beweer die landdros en sy vrou dat Malan hulle met ‘n hoëhakskoen, met die vuis en met die plathand aangerand het. Hulle voer ook aan dat sy die Kwoord teen hulle gebruik het.

‘n Werker hou haar snoeiskêr omhoog in die Sapekoe-teeplantasie, waar ‘n groot deel reeds tot kniehoogte afgesny is. Die teebome staan ruig op die landgoed, waar die departement van landbou nou ingespring het om weer orde op die meer as ‘n duisend hektaar vervalle plantasie te skep. ‘n Bakkievrag vol snoeiskêre en sae staan op die perseel waar nagenoeg vier honderd werkers ‘n week gelede ingeval het om die teeplante te snoei.Mnr Jan Ndimande van die Tshivhase

Teelandgoed in Venda is die bestuurder van die werkspanne in Magoebaskloof. Hy is reeds 27 jaar in die bedryf en glo hy sal met sy kennis die Tshivashe-sukses op Sapekoe herhaal.

Plasies vier hul 75 goue jare

Die Hoërskool Merensky vier vanjaar hul 75ste verjaardag en het dié groot geleentheid saam met wyle dr Hans Merensky se verjaarsdag herdenk.

Die Plasie-dirigente het weer gewys hoekom hulle as die beste dirigente tydens die interhoër aangewys is, deur die hele skool met hul optrede te vermaak. Tydens die Merenskyfeesviering het die leerlinge ook aan ‘n partytjie-parade (BO) deelgeneem, om die program te open. Die gasspreker was me Martie Tremper, wat self ‘n leerling aan die skool was, voordat sy weer as jong onderwyseres teruggekom het en waar sy steeds onderrig gee. Die Plasies het die fees afgesluit deur koek en koeldrank te geniet, wat deur CocaCola geborg is. LINKS: Mnr Magnus Steyn, die skoolhoof, ondersteun deur die kultuur-verteenwoordigers in die uitvoerende komitee, het die kersies op die spesiale verjaarsdagkoek doodgeblaas.

Elke vraestel wat gehermerk is se punt is verhoog. Agtien nuwe vakonderskeidings is behaal in Engels (12), Afrikaans (4), gasvryheidstudies (1) en lewenswetenskap (1).

Leandri behaal vierde plek

by SA’s Leandri Janse van Rensburg van Le’ Club in Tzaneen het die naweek in Port Elizabeth aan die SA Driekampkampioenskappe deelgeneem. Leandri het Gauteng Noord op die SA kampioenskappe in die junior afdeling (o.17 ouderdomsgroep) verteenwoordig.

Driekamp bestaan uit 750 m swem, 20 km fietsry en 5 km hardloop. Leandri het vierde in haar ouderdomsgroep in ’n tyd van 1:17:00 geëindig. Dis ’n groot eer om op hierdie vlak te kan deelneem, aangesien dit haar eerste jaar as driekampatleet is.

Gholfspelers moet vinnig spring vir prestige-reeks Tzaneense gholfspelers wat daarvan droom om te kwalifiseer vir Suid-Afrika se grootste amateur-sportgebeurtenis, die Sanlam Kanker-uitdaagreeks, moet so gou as moontlik by hul onderskeie klubs registreer, anders gaan hulle die kans verspeel om op twee van die wêreld se beste gholfbane in aksie te wees, die Gary Player-buiteklub en die Lost City-baan.

Klubkompetisies word vanjaar landwyd van Maart tot Julie afgehandel. Die wenners

sal kwalifiseer vir die streekeindrondes van Augustus tot September, waarna die wenners in Oktober na Sun City sal reis om aan die Sanlam Kanker-uitdaagreeks se eindronde oor 36 putjies deel te neem.

“Dis ons tweede jaar by Sun City en die verandering in baan het ’n ongelooflike verskil gemaak in die versugting van die land se amateurs om hiervan deel te wees,” sê mnr Gary van Loggerenberg, borgskapbestuurder van Sanlam.

“Dit moet enige amateur se droom wees om op twee van die wêreld se beste gholfbane, met hul ongelooflike geskiedenis en tradisie, in ‘n kompeterende toernooi te speel.”

Maar die primêre doel van die Kanker-uitdaagreeks is om geld vir KANSA te in. Sedert 1993 het dié toernooi meer as R23 miljoen in die stryd teen kanker ingesamel.

Gaan onmiddellik na jou plaaslike gholfklub en registreer vir Suid-Afrika se voorste amateur-sportgebeurtenis – en ’n tree nader aan Sun City.

Gholfklubs word aangemoedig om hul klubs aanlyn te registreer by sanlamcancerchallenge.co.za.

Vossies ploeg met Sasolburg Die Hoërskool Ben Vorster het Saterdag hul aanslag op die kroon in die Pukreeks voortgesit met nog ’n seëvierende dag op die sportveld, toe hulle vir Sasolburg in hul agterplaas gaan klop het.

Die Vossies se netbalspanne het nie ’n wedstryd verloor nie en het Saterdag hul plekke in die eindronde van die Pukreeks bespreek.

Slegs die o.16A’s en B’s speel nie in die eindronde nie. Saterdag het die o.14A’s met 17-13 gewen, terwyl die o.14B’s met 10-10 gelykop gespeel het. Die o.15A’s en B’s het met 26-12 en 15-13 gewen, die o.16A’s en B’s het met 1412 en 28-15 gewen, die o.17A’ en B’s het punte gekry omdat Sasolburg nie spanne gehad het nie, die tweede span het met 25-10 gewen en die eerste span het met 24-20 gewen.

Op die hokkieveld het sake ewe goed verloop. Die o.14A’ en B’s het met 2-1 en 2-0 gewen, terwyl die o.15B’s met 2-1 verloor het. Die o.15A’s het met ’n goeie oorwinning van 6-0 opgemaak, waarna die o.16A’s en B’s met 3-0 en 3-1 gewen het. Die tweede span het met 1-0 gewen, maar die eerste span kon net ’n 0-0 gelykop uitslag behaal.

Sasolburg was die hokkispanne se strafste opponente nog.

Op die rugbyveld het die Vossies vir Sasolburg oorrompel. Die o.14A’s het met 46-0 gewen, terwyl die o.15A’s vir ’n slag harder moes werk vir hul oorwinning van 36-0. Die o.16A’s het Sasolburg met 41-0 geklop, waarna die eerste span Sasolburg met 65-5 vermorsel het. Don Mlondobozi het twee drieë

gedruk, terwyl Herman Els, Johan Bannink, PC Engelbrecht, Oswin Shirindzi, Kefentse Mahlo, Marcel Scholtz, Tovhi Nefale, Viljoen Dreyer en Trevor Hope elk een drie gedruk het. Marcel Scholtz het met vyf doelskoppe geslaag.

Vossie-skuts staan ’n kans vir SA-proewe Skuts van die Hoërskool Ben Vorster het die naweek aan die Noord-Gauteng interprovinsiale skietkompetisie in Pretoria deelgeneem.

Die Vossies het weer eens hul staal gewys en TJ Voster van die Laerskool Tzaneen het die derde plek in die o.13ouderdomsgroep met ‘n telling van 1182 uit 1600 behaal.

Bernadine Voster het ‘n telling van 1325 uit 1600 en Jan-Daniël Griesel het 1324 in die o.16-groep behaal. Hulle het onderskeidelik die elfde en twaalfde plekke beklee. Daar was 82 Sporters in hierdie ouderdomsgroep.

Lambré Griesel het ‘n baie goeie telling van 1400 uit 1600 gehandhaaf. Daar was 62 inskrywings in die o.21groep waarin hy meegeding het.

Uit hierdie groep sal skuts na die proewe vir die SAspan genooi word, wat later vanjaar in die VSA gaan deelneem.

This week’s fitness tip Ettienne van Wyngaardt (Fitness specialist)

Fitness is accessible to you if you have the right mindset.

It is commitment that separates the fit from the unfit. Each week, you have the opportunity to make fitness a key component of your life.

Simple choices made throughout the week are all part of your transition to a healthier lifestyle. Begin each week with an in-depth

analysis of your fitness progress from the previous week.

Identify areas of weakness, such as poor eating habits, inconsistent workouts and lack of motivation. Turn these weaknesses into positive opportunities for growth by developing strategies to overcome the obstacles.

A bowler has to be mentally alert. Every bowl is different as is every green.

Most top bowlers take up the sport in their 30’s and even 40’s, but the Baragwanath fitness stood them in good stead despite them starting to play at a much later age. Many bowlers are ex tennis players. Tennis has always been a problem in the area as the only tennis court, now in disuse, is at the Magoebaskloof Hotel.

Both have already won medals. Robin won the Limpopo singles and Trish the Limpopo masters.

The couple started their bowling career at the Magoebaskloof Bowling Green. However, due to the small number of players they have all moved to the Tzaneen Bowling Green.

The Haenertsburg area needs more bowlers.

Locals are invited to consider joining and have to bear in mind that there is a selection process.
