Walvis Bay mayor welcomes vehicle assembly plant’s opening later this year Floris Steenkamp
The vehicle assembly plant that will commence operations in Walvis Bay by the close of 2018, will produce vehicles exclusively for Opel South Africa and Peugeot/Citroën South Africa. These entities will redistribute these vehicles on the auto markets in SADC. This first glimpse of local knowledge into this auto manufacturing plant was provided on Tuesday night by the mayor of Walvis Bay, Alderman Immanuel Wilfried, in his monthly statement
during the monthly council meeting. The Mayor confirmed he was briefed on the matter by the International Industrial Projects Manager for the Middle East and Africa Region, Fabrice Verastegui on the deve-
lopments. Some weeks ago, a press statement with very limited information over this vehicle assembly plant, hit the Namibian public via the media. More specific inforContinues on Page 2

“The main object now is to reduce the vessel's weight". This was confirmed by a source yesterday at the site near Cape Cross where salvage crews are still trying to re-float the Japanese fishing vessel, Fukuseki Maru, which ran aground there last month.

Floris Steenkamp
The paramount chief of the Herero people Chief Vekuii Rukoro drew negative reactions from the German Embassy in Windhoek this week for an alleged remark he made in Swakopmund at the recent Herero reparation walk and genocide commemorations. Chief Rukoro has been quoted by two national newspapers, one the popular German daily, that an intergovernmental secret agreement exists in terms of which Germany would provide Namibia with generous development aid instead of paying reparations to the Herero and Nama people to compensate for the 1904 genocide in which very close to 100 000 people lost their lives.
The Herero and Nama uprising in 1904 saw German troops crushing the revolt with deadly violence and sending many to a concentration camp at Swakopmund where more people died. Other Herero and Nama people were enslaved on farms where they were worked to death and many died of starvation and disease. Every year the Herero and Nama people organise a reparation walk at Swakopmund over the Easter weekend to emp-
hasise their demand Germany paying reparations for the genocide. Also, respects are paid to those who lost their lives. The event is centred around the Swakopmund memorial park. This year interestingly the organisers of the event said it was poorly attended. In fact, no representatives of the Nama people attended. With regard to Chief Rukoro's remarks, the German Embassy issued a strongly worded Continues on Page 2

mation is emerging. Councillor Wilfried also mentioned in his address the European automaker behind the project, PSA Group plans to sell as many as one million vehicles in Africa per year by 2025. What portion of the market would go to the SADC was not mentioned. The mayor went on to say 50 direct jobs would be created at the vehicle assembly plant and 200 indirect jobs as sub-contracting parties would get the manufacturing plant up and running. “We look forward to the first vehicles running off the assembly line by the end of this year and wish the group a prosperous future in Walvis Bay”, the mayor concluded on the matter. Adding the business and public sector would be pleased to know that Council is still very much active in promoting the investment potential of Walvis Bay.

Rukoro-statement Continued from Page 1 statement on Wednesday categorically denying the existence of such "secret agreement" and challenging Chief Rukoro (and others) to either show proof of the secret agreement as in the absence of such evidence it would be treated as "an allegation without factual basis". The statement reads: "The Namibian dailies "SUN" and "Allgemeine Zeitung" reported in their editions of Tuesday, 3 April, and Wednesday, 4 April, respectively about remarks made by Advocate Vekuii Rukoro on the occasion of a so called "Herero Reparations March" in Swakopmund. According to those reports, Advocate Rukoro alleged "that the Government of Germany and the Government of Namibia have signed a secret agreement that Germany would rather provide generous development aid instead of paying reparations to the Ovanherero and Nama people". In light of this, the German Embassy Windhoek does state officially and informs the public as follows: "Neither the current nor any previous German Government has ever signed such an alleged agreement. In fact, to this Embassy's know-ledge, such an agreement does not exist. The fact that this allegation is being repeated by Vekuii Rukoro and other members of the Herero community (like Esther Muinjangue in Berlin, end January 2018) does not turn a false into a true statement. It rather remains an allegation without any factual basis whatsoever. The Embassy calls upon Advocate Rukoro to prove his allegations by presenting the alleged agreement to the public. As long as he remains unable to do so he – and others – should refrain from repeating this allegation.""
Continued from Page 1 An attempt last week by the salvage tug SA Amandla to pull the vessel back to the deep resulted in the stricken vessel moving astern by some 100 metres only. It was then decided all efforts would first focus to reduce the vessel's weight. By late yesterday afternoon around 80 % of the estimated 55 000 litres of diesel were already removed. Crews will now commence to remove fishing gear from the vessel to further reduce the weight. SA Amandla is scheduled to make another attempt this afternoon during the high tide to try and pull the vessel off the rocks and back to the deep. Should that not be successful, another option to reduce the vessel's weight would be to remove the somewhat 80 tons of frozen tuna aboard which is currently sealed in the freezer holds.
Walvis Bay resident commits suicide Floris Steenkamp
A well-known resident of Walvis Bay and long serving employee in Namport's coatings department (paint) in the port of Walvis Bay, Mr Johan Laubscher, was found dead in his house in 6th Street on Wednesday morning. Mr Laubscher is believed to have committed suicide by hanging. He was last seen leaving his workplace with a company vehicle last Thursday before the Easter long weekend. He was on stand-by. When he did not turn up for work on Tuesday morning, nobody initially thought something was wrong. On Wednesday morning however, a colleague of Mr Laubscher who frequently drives past his home became suspicious. It was clear to him Laubscher's company vehicle had not been moved for several days. After a phone call, a family member and colleagues went to his house, forced open a door and found Mr Laubscher's body.

That is to honour the late Johnson Mabakeng who was the Ministry of Correctional Services' Deputy Commissioner for Prisons who died at the age of 45 in July 2006. Mabakeng's death was unexpected and sent shockwaves through the country at the time. He was hailed for his work excellence and Correctional Services mourned his loss at such a young age. Mabakeng joined the pre-independence prison services in South West Africa in 1982 and was promoted to Deputy Commissioner of Prisons in September 1996. ¡9th Street runs in an easterly direction from 6th Road across Sam Nujoma Avenue, Hage Geingob Street, Theo-Ben Gurirab Street and Nangolo Mbumba Avenue to the Wal-

Sources in the coast’s short-term insurance industry says dozens of claims for water damage has been filed at Swakopmund after heavy downpours on Monday. In some parts of Swakopmund rainfall figures of as much as 20mm were recorded.
One of the suspects that robbed a Dutch tourist in Swakopmund's central business district on Independence Day has been transferred in custody to Okahao in Northern Namibia where he has to stand trial for another crime he allegedly committed. Shanyaata Severenes (40) and Tomas Katya Timoteus (19) robbed the 40-year-old Rebbeca Audry Zandvliet in front of Pick 'n Pay. They threatened her with a knife and robbed her of her backpack. The two thugs were apprehended within a short while and all the stolen items were recovered. Both Timoteus and Severenes made first appearances in the Swakopmund Magistrate court a day after the robbery on 22 March. They were denied bail and the case was remanded to 30 April. In the meantime, according to Detective Inspector Daniel Gurirab of the Namibian Police at Swakopmund, Severenes was transferred to Okahao where he is expected to stand trial on another criminal case. “Arrangements are in place to bring him back to Swakopmund for his next court appearance”.

Hofmeyr hostel to be turned into classrooms Sharlien Tjambari
The Director of Education for Erongo region Mr. John Awaseb this week confirmed to namib times that the Ministry of Education is planning to shut down the Hofmeyr hostel and will turn it into classrooms to resolve both the immediate and medium-term shortages of school classrooms in Swakopmund. The hostel was flooded by rains this week and it seems at this stage the damage would not be repaired, but that the hostel would cease to exist in the foreseeable future. "We wanted to sell the hostel three/four years ago, but we could not manage because Government refused.
Now we are planning to close the Hofmeyr hostel and convert the hostel into classrooms because we have shortages of classrooms in Swakopmund", explained Awaseb. According to Awaseb children living in this hostel are from other towns in Erongo and DRC informal settlement. The plan is to give children from the
DRC settlement preference and to entice parents of learners who are receiving schooling at Swakopmund but living elsewhere in Erongo to return their children to the other towns with schools. “They can just go back to Usakos, Arandis etc. and then still receive schooling there". Although preference is given to DRC

Vessel ownership the cornerstone of profitability in the fishing industry
The Namibianisation of the Namibian fishing industry lies in real vessel ownership. With real it is meant that the vessel must belong legally to Namibian entities and an actual investment must be made by a Namibian entity. This was recently said by the Minister of Fisheries and Marine Resources Bernhard Esau when he unveiled the factory trawler Heinaste in Walvis Bay. Heinaste is an example of such real ownership and real investment. Heinaste used to be a foreign flag fishing vessel working in Namibia but ArcticNam Fishing Pty (Ltd) purchased the vessel. Various right holding companies are operating under ArcticNam. They are Sinco Fishing, Yukor Fishing, and Epango Fishing. “In the business of fishing vessel owners retain the highest proportion of the overall value of the fishing industry�, said the Minister. After vessel ownership the ownership of land based processing facilities and value adding to fish is seen as the next best alternative for sustainable profitability in any fishing industry.

Pre-paid water pilot The time is now to get back into project a big success the municipality’s good books Floris Steenkamp
Floris Steenkamp
The municipality of Walvis Bay recovered a total of N$336 858-50 sent up to mid-March this year from water sales through prepaid water meters that is now systematically installed in targeted areas across the harbour town.
The council of the municipality of Walvis Bay approved a recommendation at its Ordinary Council meeting on Tuesday night to extend the current amnesty period for those in arrears with rates and taxes to settle the capital amount and the interest portion then being written off or credited.
Before the introduction of the pilot project in 2017, the local authority had to absorb large amounts in bad debts as people were not settling their water bills on time and allow bad debt to accumulate. The prepaid water meter system virtually obliterates bad debts as you buy first and then consume. In the agenda of the Ordinary Council Meeting that took place on Tuesday night, the municipality summed up the situation as follows: “Low income and poor households struggle to pay their monthly municipal bills and to settle overdue water accounts. It has become more difficult for Council to recover debts from delinquent water consumers in Walvis Bay. The Department of Water, Waste and Environmental Management in conjunction with the Finance Department saw it necessary to implement a mechanism that will facilitate debt recovery and mitigate processes which will reduce the number of consumers accumulating debt with Council�. Prepaid water meters were the best next alternative. In 2016 a pilot project was approved for the installation of a number of prepaid water meters. In the course of 2017 these meters were installed and for the past four months a total of 195 prepaid meters are in operation. The total income generated from water sales through these meters came to N$336 858-50. Half of the income generated were allocated to bad debt of the targeted water consumers. With the project proving highly promising to turn the tide on bad debts for the Walvis Bay municipality, Council adopted a recommendation on Tuesday night that a total of 2000 more meters needed to be purchased and installed in the following
target areas: Tutaleni (951 meters); New Hostel Erf 218 Kuisebmond (679); Erf 322 Narraville (11); Erf 324 Narraville (10); Erf 218 Narraville (5); Old
Single Quarters (231) and Kuisebmond Centre (102). The municipality envisages prepaid metering for all households across Walvis Bay.
Those who are indebted to the municipality of Walvis Bay with rates and taxes must take this opportunity to settle the debts and be spared the burden of paying interest. Council resolved on 30 November last year to institute an amnesty period with the effective date 1 December 2017 to 28 February. On Tuesday night the extension date was made 30 April .

Swakopmund's fire chief Adri Goosen, said yesterday that an investigation into the cause of the fire will start today. Late yesterday, the fire brigade was still at the scene to extinguish "hot spots" where the smouldering ruins again flared up in flames. It was clear yesterday that the remains of the building where Metro has been conducting business for many years has to be demolished, as the damage is simply too big. The fire yesterday morning brought back the memories of a similar fire last year, which gutted the Dolphin Pharmacy in Swakopmund's central business district.

Stricken Japanese fishing vessel moved by 100 meters as tug tries to pull it to the deep At the time of going to press yesterday afternoon the salvage tug SA Amandla was preparing for a third attempt to pull the stricken Japanese tuna long liner, Fukuseki Maru, off the rocks where it ran aground on 21 March near Cape Cross. In the first attempt over the weekend SA Amandla managed to pull the stricken vessel astern [backwards] for an estimated one hundred metres. A second attempt failed. A towline is attached to the Fukuseki Maru's stern, and she is pulled astern (backwards). The work window to pull the vessel off the rocks is limited to the high tide which is currently around 03:00 and again late afternoon (18:00). "We maintain tension on the towline during low tide to ensure Fukuseki Maru remains in every new position as she is pulled off the rocks. We work slowly and plan every next move carefully. We are also looking at every possible option to reduce the vessel's weight", explained a source close to the salvage.Mr. Paul van der Merwe of Walvis Bay Diving & Launch confirmed yesterday attempts to reduce the vessel's weight. He cautioned, however, that it is too early to speculate on whether the vessel would be successfully refloated. He said there were various factors at play and it is too early to make a prediction as to whether the vessel would be successfully re-floated. "We do our best and we want to see this vessel refloated, and at the moment we are working very hard for a positive outcome", said van der Merwe.

The Cgals are eagerly preparing for the 10th World Choir Games On Saturday 28 April at 19h00 the coastal towns of Namibia will be treated to a vibrant performance under the guidance of Wilna Liebenberg by the Cgals Chamber Choir of Namibia, at a Gala evening in the town hall of Walvis Bay. The choir has gone from strength to strength after their category win at the previous Games in Sochi, Russia. In 2017 they passed the UNISA advanced choir examination with 97% which once again places them on the 'honour roll' of UNISA. They also sang the 2017 ABRSM (Royal School of Music) advanced ensemble examination and passed with the highest possible mark. Both examinations were special in that the examiners were choir examining specialists. The examiner from England, Mr Eric Tibbett, is himself an excellent singer who has had many years of experience with, amongst others, University choirs in England. The evening's performance will also create a platform for local singers and pianists that take lessons with Vera Malherbe and Wilna Liebenberg, two music teachers whose students regularly receive accolades for their excellent results in their practical and theoretical examinations. The Cgals Choir is busy with the preparation of 12 pieces which will be performed at the World Choir Games from 4 to 14 July in Pretoria, South Africa. To prepare for competition on this level, every experienced music teacher will agree, can take up to 18 months of intense practice to master the difficult repertoire! The pieces include a composition by Wilna Liebenberg (Psalm 23) which has been specially composed for the competition, pieces of the Renaissance genre (Duo Seraphim: Victoria), Late Romantic Period (Tantum Ergo: Faure), even a current day Afrikaans Art cycle (4 Elemente en Epiloog: Niel van der Watt) and for example a traditional choir work (We are the daughters of our Land Namibia: composed by Wilna Liebenberg with words by a Cgals choir member, Karen Miller). The choir consists of 26 members that work very hard to compete in International competition and is one of only two Namibian choirs ranked in the top 500 choirs in the world (425th with 903 points). The other choir is the COTA Youth Choir of Fanie Dorfling (174th with 974 points). Another Namibian choir that is ranked amongst the top 1000 choirs in the world is the Namib Youth Choir under the direction of Linus Shaumbwa (974th with 800 points). Considering that nearly one thousand of China's more than one million choirs and ensembles participate, that is no mean feat! According to the “Singingeurope” report of 2017, there are 625 000 choirs and ensembles in Europe alone and 46,3 million choral singers in the USA. Tickets to the Gala concert can be bought from any Cgals member, or from Irma Kruger, 081 129 9758 or Louise Serfontein 081 249 2271. The cost of N$200 per ticket includes a cherry, refreshments and finger foods. A cash bar is also available. The final concerts by the Cgals Chamber Choir of Namibia before departure to the World Choir Games will take place at the end of June in the Lutheran church in Swakopmund.

“My Storie van Hoop” Hykie Berg, die bekende gesig wat sedert 2009 elke weekaand op die kassie in sitkamers regoor die land kuier as Dr Conrad Bester in die kyknet-sepie Binnelanders, sal op 11 April in Walvisbaai wees by die Walvisbaai Gemeenskapskerk. Hykie Berg is 'n bekende film- en TVakteur, geliefd en gewild regoor SuidAfrika vir sy rol in Binnelanders en as wenner van Survivor. Hy was ook 'n verslaafde. Op die kruin van sy suksesvolle loopbaan verloor Hykie alles en draai by die dood om. Hier vertel hy sy verhaal openhartig, van die dwelmhole van Hillbrow tot in 'n maksimum-sekuriteitsel in die Weskoppies hospitaal, waar God hom van 'n gewisse dood red. Hykie nooi jou uit om te onthou dat God se liefde ook vir jou bedoel is, en dat, al doen
Hykie Berg
ons wat, God ons nie laat gaan nie. Hykie gaan sy boek “My Storie van Hoop” bekendstel en dan praat oor die gebruik van dwelms en die lewe daarna. Die fondse gaan vir Tani B's Athletes, dit is my groepie sprinters wat Namibia span gemaak het in meer as 1 span 2018. Die fondse sal aangewend word vir hul uitgawes rakende die kompetisies. Hul sal heel waarskynlik moet vlieg tussen in om betyds by verskillende kompetisies die land te verteenwoordig. Elke familie met meer as een lid is wanfunksioneel. Probleme is oral maar verslawing en alkoholisme veroorsaak soveel hartseer. Kom ons gee hoop, en versprei die boodskap deur die wêreld. God is Almagtig en bring altyd restorasie, dis Sy spesialiteit. Wat het jy om te verloor. Kom luister graag na wat hy te sê het oor die gebruik van dwelms en die lewe na dit. Liewe Walvisbaai vriende!! Kom spandeer die aand saam met Hykie Berg by die bekendstelling van sy boek. Dit gaan ‘n aand van lekker lag en lekker kuier wees. Kaartjies is beskikbaar by Viggo Lund teen N$100 per person.

An der Atlantikküste,in der Namibwüste Die Nacht der Galerien ein Mega-Erfolg Swakopmund (sk) Ob nun in der Fine Art Gallery in der Hauptstraße, in der Kunsthandlung Die Muschel in der Brauhaus-Arkade oder in der Woermann-Galerie im historischen Woermannhaus - es wimmelte am Ostersamstag Abend von Besuchern dort. Kunstliebhaber jeden Alters und aus den verschiedensten Berufsbranchen genossen die zweite “Nacht der Galerien” und ließen sich vom Schaffensdrang diverser Künstler erfreuen. Der Abend nahm um 17 Uhr in der Fine Art Galery seinen Anfang, wo zwei Schüler der Dance Factory mit ihrer Pantomime unterhielten und die 18jährige Janice van Rooi, begleitet von Marianina van Deventer, mit ihrer schillernden Stimme betörte. Die Gäste durften hier abstrakte und semi-abstrakte Meisterwerke des 1953 in

Woermann-Galerie, wo sieben Künstler und Hobbykünstler in der Ausstellung Flower Power variationsreiche Kreativität zeigten. Der Andrang war groß, man trat sich förmlich auf die Füße.” Ich habe noch nie solch eine Vibration bei einer Ausstellung erfahren”, meint Gudrun Eckleben-Berens, eine der Künstlerinnen. Ausgestellt hatten Anita Roux, Betsie van Rensburg, Gudrun Eckleben-Berens, Uta Eckleben, Heide-Marie Lacheiner-Kuhn, Heidi Louw, Helene Uba-Khais, Hildburg Böck, Ischa Ulrich, June Owen-Smith, Maria Gaeses, Mildred

Ancestral Crime nennt Pedro Vorster dieses Bild, das die verheerenden Zustände auf der Haifischinsel vor über hundert Jahren anspricht. Im Hintergrund prangt als stummer Zeuge die Lüderitzbuchter Felsenkirche. Foto: Susann Kinghorn von Lüttwitz, Nicky Marais, Rad Gaths, Sigi Kolbe, Sofie Goroses, Urte Remmert und Wellington Mushongo. Von bemalten Holzskulpturen über Linoleumschnitte, Kunstwerke aus recycled Kaffeekapseln, Blumengestecke, Stickereien, Töpferware bis Osterdekoration war hier eine bunte Palette von Kunst zu sehen und die Gäste konnten sich an einer farbenfrohen Pracht mit Blumen im Überangebot sattsehen.
Worte der Woche Der Stein der Weisen Ich suchte an allen Stränden meiner Welt, schaute alle Wege entlang, ihn am Rand zu entdecken. Ich klopfte in den Steinbrüchen herum, untersuchte sogar die Steine, mit denen man nach mir warf. Beinahe jeden Stein hebe ich auf, betrachte ihn von allen Seiten. Währenddessen lachen die Weisen mich aus. Kristiane Allert-Wybranietz (*1955), deutsche Dichterin und Lyrikerin
Man kann den Organisatoren, nämlich Martina von Wenzel, Francois Hartz, Urte Remmert, Traudel Goethje, Heidemarie Lacheiner-Kuhn, Gudrun Eckleben-Berens, Herbert Schier und Hanjörg Hoffmann von der Swakopmunder Kunstvereinigung nur gratulieren. Die Ausstellungen sind noch bis zum 5. Mai zu besichtigen.

An der Atlantikküste,in der Namibwüste
Du sollst nicht töten
Der 1959 in Kochel am See geborene deutsche Schriftsteller eines Syriers und einer Schlesierin, Friedrich Ani, hat diese Kurzgeschichte verfasst, die hier in zwei Episoden wiedergegeben wird Folge 1 “Ein Schatten bin ich ferne finsterer D ö r f e r. - G o t t e s Schweigen trank ich aus dem Brunnen des Hains.” So schrieb Georg Trakl in seinem Gedicht “de profundis”, benannt nach dem 130. Psalm, der anhebt ND mit den Worten: “Aus der Tiefe rufe ich, Herr, zu dir. Herr, höre meine Stimme! Lass deine Ohren merken auf die Stimme des Flehens.” War da ein Flehen in jener Januarnacht, als der 17jährige Felix das Haus seiner Eltern verließ, begleitet von seiner Schwester, deren Freundin und seinem besten Freund Torben, bewaffnet mit mehreren Küchenmessern, scheinbar sanftmütig und unauffällig wie sonst auch? Schrie es im Innern des Schülers? “Ich harre des Herrn, meine Seele harret, und ich hoffe auf sein Wort. Meine Seele wartet auf den Herrn mehr als die Wächter auf den Morgen.” Stille, nichts als Stille. Und Gottes Schweigen in dem 200-Seelen-Dorf. Und zwei Jungen fern aller Vergebung, zwei Schatten, ein jeder abgespaltet von dem Ich, das die anderen kennen,
vom hilfsbereiten, höflichen, netten Ich, zwei gernge-sehene Freunde, ordentliche Schüler, die keinem Lehrer Kummer bereiten. Aber jetzt, in dieser Nacht, in dieser Stunde, tragen sie sechs Messer bei sich. Und als der Nachbar, dessen Sohn ein Kumpel der beiden ist, die Haustür öffnet, hebt der unscheinbare Felix den Arm und fordert den Mann auf, sich hinzuknien. Das tut der Mann nicht. “Errette ich, Herr, von den bösen Menschen; behüte mich vor den Gewalttätigen, die Böses planen in ihrem Herzen...” Gottes Schweigen. Und Felix. Und sein Begleiter. Unzählige Male stechen sie zu. Sie töten den Mann. Dann laufen sie die tTreppe hinauf. Auf einmal steht da ihr Kumpel, er reagiert schnell und schließt sich im Zimmer ein. Er sieht nicht, was mit seiner Mutter geschieht. Zweiundsechzig Messerstiche. Zweiundsechzig Messerstiche im Körper eines einzigen Menschen. Aber sie atmet noch. Und Felix befiehlt Torben, die Freundin seiner Schwester zu holen, mit der sie bei seinen Eltern zu Abend gegessen haben, udn die sie, bevor sie an der Haustür klingeln, wie aus Spaß in einem Schuppen einsperren. Was der Sohn im verriegelten Zimmer nur ahnt, muss das Mädchen mit ansehen: Wie Felix der sterbenden Frau mit dem Messer ein letztes Mal in den Kopf sticht. Er ging aufs Gymnasium. Er nahm keine Drogen. Er trieb sich
nicht herum. Er bastelte mit seiner Mutter Marionetten. Er engagierte sich gegen Rechtsradikalismus und nahm einen Kumpel vor Skinheads in Schutz. Die Eltern dieses Kumpels schlachtete er später ab. Er saß viel Stunden vor dem Computer, spielte üble Spiele, Final Fantasy VII, Doom 3, World of Warcraft. War der Computer die Schlange, die ihn böse machte? Ist er vielleicht verrückt geworden? War er in jener Sonntagnacht geistig umnachtet? Litt er unter einer Psychose? Er wollte, dass das Mädchen sieht, was für ein Kerl er ist. Ein Held. Einer, vor dem man sich fürchten muss. Kein Weichei, nicht der Nette von nebenan, den alle zu kennen glaubten. Der war er doch immer nur zum Schein. Nach seiner Verhaftung finden seine Eltern ein Tagebuch, in dem er seine letzten Fantasien ausgelebt hat, immer wieder, Fantasien der Allmacht, der Zerstörung, des Untergangs der Schwachen und Wehrlosen, Fantasien des Todes und der Auslöschung der Welt. Wenn Felix die Tür seines Zimmers schloss und die Falltüren zur Unterwelt seines Computers hochzog, nahm er die Gestalt eines unbesiegbaren Kriegers an, der mit Messern und Schwertern dem Pack der Menschheit bei lebendigem Leib das verlogene Herz aus dem Leib riss... Fortsetzung folgt!

Claudia Sperlich: Eine ältere Dame aus Jassy, / die führte ihr Schoßhündchen Gassi. / Sein Fell und ihr Haar im Farbton gleich war, /das gleiche Futter auch fraß sie.

Locker vom Hocker Vandalismus
Liebe Küstenleser! Im vergangenen Jahr zerschlugen Vandalen im Bunurong-Nationalpark in Victoria/Australien einen 115 Millionen Jahre alten Dinosaurier-Fußabdruck mit einem Hammer. Im letzten Monat zerkratzten Zerstörer in Hamburg und Lübeck die Fenster von öffentlichen Bussen, besprühten Eisenbahnwaggons mit Graffiti und steckten Autos an Brand. Vor einigen Tagen demolierten Xenophoben Häuser und Geschäfte von Somalis im Township Zwelihle zwischen Hermanus und Sandbaai in der Kapprovinz. Vorgestern lief ich an der Eisenbahnschiene vor den Toren Swakopmunds entlang, die Teil eines weitmaschigen Streckennetzes ausmacht, das uns von Nord bis Süd mit allen wichtigen Ortschaften des Landes verbindet und dessen Grundstruktur aus der Kolonialzeit DeutschSüdwestafrikas vor über hundert Jahren stammt. Ich schaute mir dieses Stückchen Schiene unseres inzwischen 2687 km langen Eisenbahnnetzes an und dachte so im Stillen: Welche Mühe steckt allein in diesem für meine Augen sichtbaren Stück Bahnlinie. Die parallel verlaufenden, gusseisernen Schienen wurden erst einmal hergestellt, dann hierher transportiert und schließlich zusammengebaut. Für dieses hochwertige Technologieprodukt mussten Männer im Schweiße ihres Angesichts einen ellenlangen Sandwall schaufeln, auf dem die
aus Stahl gewalzten Schienen, hinter denen viel Forschergeist steckt, fest liegen können. Der Sandwall ist wiederum mit Schottersteinen aufgeschüttet worden, um ein stabiles Gleisbett zu garantieren - was wiederum härteste Knochenarbeit forderte. Vor allem im 19. Jahrhundert wird solch ein Gleisbau eine Mammutarbeit gewesen sein, wo Hunderte von Menschen noch per Hand mit Schaufel, Hacke und Meißel die
Schaffen steckt, habe ich nichts als maßlose Verachtung für Zerstörer übrig. Ich wage zu behaupten, dass solche Rohlinge noch nie selbst etwas aufgebaut oder zustande gebracht haben, und ich fordere eine saftige Strafe für solche Barbaren, die keinerlei Respekt vor dem Fleiß

drags
More than 200 motor sport enthusiasts gathered at Union Street in Walvis Bay over the Easter weekend on Saturday for a fun-filled day of drag racing. Auto-styled cars, the smell of burning rubber only petrolheads seem to love, burnouts and skilled driving ruled the day. The Easter Drags, hosted by the Walvis Bay Motor Club, was a big success with more than 50 cars from all over the country entered. Despite the stopwatch and the race-lights failing the organisers, the particpants had a lot of fun and the competition was stiff. The event is the first leg of the Namibian National Drags after all. There were also fun moments when the cars with the smaller engine capacities took on the “big guns” and then giving them a run for their money. The world of motorsport is not only glamour. The reality of break-downs are ever-looming. And it happened! For some the races were over even before it begun, suffering breakdonws “in the pits”. One breakdown was that of the Skyline GTR of Morné Wagner [sponsored by Road Assistance Dynamic]. The GTR’s prop shaft failed during the warm-up. Below: an aerial view of the drags taken by drone.

Kudus en United môre slaags in Narraville Kudus Rugby Klub en United Rugby Klub meet môre kragte op Narraville rugby stadion. Die tuisspan sal môre op alle silinders moet vuur indien hulle United wil klop. United beklee tans die tweede plek met Kudus die vierde plek op die punte leer in die liga. United het hulle eerste wedstryd teen Wanderers verloor, maar is terug op die wenpad na hul oorwinnings teen Western Suburbs en Reho Falcon. Kudus het hul eerste wedstryd teen Rehoboth gewen voordat hul hard teruggebring is aarde toe teen Unam. Daar is min swak plekke in United se mondering. Kudus sal hard moet probeer om United te ontwrig en sal hulle van die begin af onder geweldige druk moet plaas. Vir Kudus om United môre te klop, gaan hulle voluit moet speel. United sal enige swak plekke van die tuisspan uit snuffel en duur laat betaal. Die passie en vuur waarmee United die laaste twee wedstryde gespeel het, behoort hulle ook baie moed te gee. Hoe dit ook al sy op Kudu Park bly Kudus ‘n moeilike span om te klop. Kudus gaan dalk nie môre as die gunsteling op die veld opdraf nie. United sal moet uithaal en wys indien hulle die tuisspan wil klop. Sleutel spelers wat onbeskikbaar was vir die wedstryd teen Unam, sal weer môre op hul poste wees. Kudus sal bitter graag die wedstryd wil wen om hul posisie op die punteleer te verbeter en met ‘n positiewe gemoed volgende week Windhoek toe reis om Wanderers aan te durf. Kudus sal elke geleentheid môre om punte aan te teken moet aan gryp. Uli, Aurelio en Chrysansder beskik oor dodelike stel skoppers so daar is geen rede om nie pale toe te korrel nie. United het heelwat nuwelinge bygekry die seisoen en beskik oor ‘n goed afgeronde span. Voorlangs onder leiding van Kaptein, Winmarr Rust, het hulle ‘n gedugte agttal met agterlangs manne soos Riaan
van zyl, Tuna Amutenya en Elmo Van Der Bijl wat enige verdediging aan flarde kan skeur. Sou Kudus môre hul man kan staan beloof die wedstryd vir ‘n massiewe westryd. Michael Hummel, Aurelio Plato, Chrysander Botha, Calla Sevens en Lyodd Jacobs behoort die teenstaanders ‘n behoorlike les te kan leer. Die eerste wedstryd skop af om 14:00 met die hoof wedstryd wat vir 15:45 geskeduleer is. Kudus nooi die gemeenskap uit om die klub te kom ondersteun. Weens die geweldige finansiele druk om die klub te onderhou is daar ‘n aanpassing gemaak. Hekgeld bly N$10 per skolier, N$20 per volwassene en N$10 per motor. Toeskouers wat met cool boxe inkom sal egter ‘n addisionele N$50 moet opdok. Verversings sal te koop wees. Walvisbaai Rugby Klub speel môre op hul tuisveld teen Dolphins van Swakopmund.
