Pangolin smugglers slammed with a scandalous N$300 guilt admission Erwin Leuschner Three Namibians came off almost scot-free after they were recently caught red-handed in Swakopmund while trying to allegedly sell two Pangolins – a rare and endangered species. Jason Nangolo (52), Juuso Ipadhi (53) and Hans Aoseb (39) were each fined N$300, while they allegedly were trying to sell the animals for a whooping N$45 000. The incident was confirmed by Deputy Commissioner Ottilie Kashuupulwa, Regional Crime Co-ordinator for the Erongo Region to the namib times this week. The three individuals were caught at the parking lot at the Jetty on 28 June. “We received an anonymous tip-off of the deal which was supposed to go down and caught them in the possession of the animals,” Kashuupulwa said. According to her two men caught the two animals in the vicinity
of Tsumeb. It was a mother Pangolin with her small baby by her side. Pangolins, also known as scaly anteaters, are extremely rare and are regarded as an endangered species in Namibia. “The animals were alive and well and were taken by officials of the Ministry of Environment and Tourism and set free again,” Kashuupulwa continued. The animals were found in a wooden crate covered in blue plastic on the back of a white pickup. After they were found in possession of the animals,

they each received a fine of N$300. “It is extremely demotivating and frustrating when we hear of such low fines being imposed in these cases,” said Francois Theart from the organisation Intelligence Support Against Poaching (ISAP) to namib times. He described the traffic of Pangolins greater as the traffic of Rhino horns. “Since ISAP's inception we managed to save five Pangolins to date from being smuggled,” he continued.

More than a drop in the bucket
wanted to sell a Pangolin for a record-breaking N$60 000. According to Theart there currently exists a huge demand on “exotic species”, which are highly sought after in the Far East. It is alleged that the scales of Pangolins are used similarly as Rhino Horn and act as an aphrodisiac. Furthermore the scales are also used in soup and it is even thought that they bring good luck. Theart described it as very difficult to get accurate data on the amount of Pangolins in Namibia as they are shy animals that are mostly active during the night. They also don't do well in captivity and suffer from stress easily. Although ISAP has good relations with officials from the Ministry of Environment and Tourism as well as the Police's Protected Resources Unit (PRU), he described the low fines imposed in such cases as very demotivating to all involved. “We pour in a huge amount of time, energy and effort to catch smugglers and protect the animals and when we finally do manage a success, the smugglers get out on bail or with very low fines. It is extremely frustrating,” he said. “There is no rationale behind it. You can get a 25 year prison sentence if you steal one goat and only a small fine for smuggling an endangered animal,” added Mike Böttger from ISAP. “The punitive provisions need to be changed,” he concluded.
Jan Arnold Continued from page 1 decisions which will impact our business environments and our personal and private lives. It is with a personal heavy heart that I communicate today that Jan Arnold, the Managing Director of Namsov Fishing Enterprises, has decided to bring forward his retirement. Jan started working for Namsov in May 1996 as a vibrant young Financial Manager exactly 20 years ago. In October 1997, he became General Manager: Namsov Group Support Services and was subsequently appointed as the Managing Director of Namsov Fishing in March 2001. The skill and passion in which he steered our ship brought Namsov the success it enjoys today. We can only express gratitude for his management of our organization, and these are qualities which are well imparted into the DNA of Namsov Fishing Enterprises. As a leader in not only the company but also the in the fishing industry, he accomplished phenomenal growth and performance at all levels. For this the shareholders, the board, management and staff applaud his sound expertise. In these times of ever-changing circumstances, we are also facing times of our greatest opportunities and new frontiers. What we have accomplished over the past decades is commendable, and I know we have the energy in us to continue and build on what Jan and his team had put in place. I am excited about our people, I am energised by our ability to change and grow and I look forward to the success which lies ahead. As Chairperson of Namsov Fishing Enterprises, I would like to thank Jan for chartering the spirit of Namibianisation in Namsov and for pioneering the sharing of commercial value with Namibian communities. We applaud his immense contribution to Namsov's huge social investment footprint in Namibia.”

Finance should lead on the route to water security. Development Bank of Namibia CEO Martin Inkumbi believes that Development Bank finance can play an important role in improving water security
Development bank of Namibia CEO Martin Inkumbi on the availability for finance to improve water security In the current circumstance of the pressing need for water security, the Development Bank of Namibia (DBN) is stepping up to the plate to assist with finance for feasible projects that work towards water security, says CEO Martin Inkumbi. The Bank, Inkumbi says, has the necessary experience to provide finance geared to water provision. In this regard, he cites projects financed by DBN, such as Aqua Utilities which semipurifies water for industrial purposes in Walvis Bay, as well as finance for water reticulation for various local authorities and private developers as part and parcel of finance for serviced land. Given feasibility and financial viability, the Bank will prioritise finance for water infrastructure. He goes on to say that the Bank is aware that finance will be a barrier to planning, so an indication of availability of finance can be a means to speed up the planning and early implementation of water infrastructure and water delivery services. Talking about project timelines, Inkumbi notes that although the Bank will seek to contribute finance for short-term alleviation of needs, the Bank is also aware that drought is a recurring phenomenon, and will look favourably on medium to long-term solutions, that ensure longterm water supply. Local authorities critical Concerning the scope of finance, Inkumbi says that the immediate focus of the Bank will be local authorities, as these are the key providers of water to households and enterprises. He says that the Bank believes that rehabilitation of aging water infrastructure, as well as provision of new infrastructure to distribute water in a more efficient manner, are areas with a high potential to generate water savings. He goes on to say that the Bank will also consider finance for better administration of water. By improving payment and administration systems for water, more funds can be released through local authorities to further develop the supply of water on a national level. In terms of practical implementation, Inkumbi says the Bank has a strong body of experience in assessing public-private partnerships (PPPs), and the Bank's assessment of an application for finance will be a strong indicator of the feasibility of the project.
Finance for enterprise initiatives On the topic of enterprise water-consumption and efficiency, Inkumbi states that this is a concern to the Bank. He points out that a loss of capacity due to water cuts, either in the form of a shutdown of production or a slowdown, immediately affects the viability of the enterprise, creates a drag on growth and will impact economic development and employment. He says that enterprises with plans to implement new water efficient technology or rehabilitate existing technology should contact the Bank concerning finance. In light of the cost of loss of productivity, he says enterprises should view this form of plan as a means to sustain themselves, not just immediately, but also in future. Feasibility crucial Although there is an immediate need for water efficiency, Inkumbi stresses that feasibility and financial viability of water delivery are crucial. We should not risk immediate solutions that are not sustainable in the long-term, or that remove water from the local authority system, as is the case with grey water, which has to be reclaimed for purification, he points out. He says the Bank will filter applications through its environmental and social management system (ESMS) to ensure that potentially harmful im-pacts are mitigated, and that the regulations of local authorities concerning water are adhered to. He also encourages engineers and project managers to approach the Bank to familiarise themselves with the Bank's ESMS. Finance for bulk water On the topic of finance for national projects, Inkumbi says due to the size of the requirement, this will be a challenge for the pool of Namibian financial resources. He notes that current projections will place strain on any single source of finance, so syndicate finance will be required. In conclusion, Inkumbi reiterates that the Bank will open the financing tap for feasible projects. He says that in the past, the Bank has responded rapidly and effectively to emerging issues, and that the Bank will do so to improve water security as well.

Uis residents without water for ten days Erwin Leuschner
Since March this year the small settlement Uis in the Dâures constituency in the Erongo Region is plagued by a serious water crisis. Currently the residents receive drinking water three times a day and only for a few hours. “We understand the situation is dire, but the worst is that we suddenly didn't have any water at all and nobody informed us,” one angered resident said to namib times yesterday. “This Thursday is the first day in exactly two weeks that water is coming out of our taps again,” said another resident, Anneline van Dyk. She runs the White Lady B+B and Camping and had it not been for her own borehole on her erf, she would not have managed the recent crisis at all. “We at least could offer brackish water to
flush the toilets, but we had to place five litre water containers in the rooms so that guests could at least brush their teeth or make coffee,” she said. Although namib times tried to get an explanation from NamWater about why there was no water for such an extended period, no answer was received from the public relations department whatsoever. Rumours circulating in Uis indicate that although water was pumped from the NeiNeis aquifer, situated about 30 kilometres from the settlement, the pipe leading to Uis had two major leaks. The pumped water never arrived in the reservoir which subsequently ran dry. “Currently we receive water for two hours in the morning, one hour during lunch and another two hours in the evening,” a resident
explained. Another resident added: “There was a tanker that came to town where we could fill up canisters for drinking water, but it came arbitrary and on some days not at all. We couldn't shower or flush our toilets.” Since March this year the residents in Uis are not allowed to water their gardens, a similar situation that many towns in Namibia are currently experiencing. “My lawn is gone and most fruit trees I had are also dead now,” van Dyk continued saying. When the water tanker didn't come to town, van Dyk had to drive to the nearby settlement Anichab, where she filled up her own water container so that she could supply her guests. “Uis has become a des ert w ith many gardens that disappeared,” she concluded.
Former Fashion World building demolished in Walvis Bay CBD
The building in Walvis Bay’s cbd on the corner of 12th Road and Hage Geingob Street which housed clothing chain Fashion World until a fire ravaged the building in the first quarter of 2016 has been complete demolished and cleared out last week. Soon after the fire it, was discovered the building’s remains and charred rubble posed an asbestos risk. It was sealed off and a local business specialising in clearing up asbestos was called in to clean the area of hazardous materials. Soon after the front end loaders roared in and in a matter of days the building was demolished and all rubble removed.

Residents of the small settlement Uis have potable drinking water again after spending more than ten consecutive days without a drop of water from the town's taps. Although the residents are now content with the situation, they are up in arms with the national water utility NamWater for keeping them in the dark about the extent of the crisis and why there was no water at all.

Crime Prevention Tips for Seniors Crime and the fear of crime create special problems for the elderly. Crime prevention is everyone's responsibility, not just a job for law enforcement. Seniors can learn how to protect themselves from crime by following these simple, common sense sug-gestions. Share these tips with your neighbors and friends, to make it tough for criminals to work in your neighborhood. AT HOME: Never open your door automatically. Install and use a peephole. Lock your doors and windows. (Three quarters of the burglaries involving older persons involved unlocked doors and windows and, less than one half of these robberies are reported) Keep your garage doors locked. Vary your daily routine. Use "Neighbourhood Watch" to keep an eye on your neighbourhood. A concerned neighbour is often the best protection against crime, because suspicious persons and activities are noticed and reported to police promptly.
The mortuary belonging to the Namibian Police Force (NamPol) at the Windhoek Central Hospital is beyond its carrying capacity with unclaimed and uncollected bodies. NamPol Spokesperson, Chief Inspector Kauna Shikwambi said the cool room at the Windhoek Police Mortuary is overloaded with 50 unclaimed and uncollected bodies. Its capacity is 24. In a media statement issued Wednesday, she humbly requested those who are aware of deceased or missing persons to come see if they know any of the dead persons in the mortuary. Part of the Police Mortuary responsibilities is to collect bodies at accident scenes, crime scenes and suicides, as well as handling bodies of natural and unnatural deaths. Shikwambi said the unclaimed bodies were collected by police officers all over the Khomas Region and some were received from //Kharas, Erongo and Hardap regions during the course of this year.

Chicken farming is a “LowHanging Fruit”economic activity which could create employment in the short and medium term for many Namibians “This is not the time to lean, this is the time to implement.” Indeed, hard times are not coming, they are with us. The Namibian economy has experienced extreme economic hardship influenced by both internal and external factors. The impact of drought has now resulted in a water shortage in the capital city and surrounding towns affecting many wet industries. The drought has also affected production, not only in Namibia but in the entire SADC region. Food prices have been on the increase, the exchange rate has not been in our favour to import and as a result our trade balance has been severely affected. The decline in the world oil prices has crippled the Angolan economy, causing a negative ripple effect on our economy. Trade in services such as retail, health and education has dropped, as many Angolans who previously were big consumers of such services are unable to afford them. Fish exports, one of Namibia's key export products to Angola has also declined as a result and the once booming border business hub between Namibia and Angola, Oshikango, has since turned into a “ghost town” retrenching many women and young people. Now more than ever we need vigorous structural reforms to adjust our economic activities. Now more than ever the government and the private sector needs to work together and collaborate on practical initiatives which could create employment as fast as possible in the short and medium term to save the local economy from drowning and pushing more people into poverty. In times like these, policymakers should focus and prioritise those “low-hanging fruit” initiatives

Maria Lisa Immanuel, Senior Trade & Investment Policy Analyst from Namibia Trade Forum which make economic sense and have great potential to create employment. One such initiative is to stimulate poultry production in the country. Poultry farming comes with untapped business opportunities carrying great potential to create employment across the entire value chain and consequently drive rural industrialisation. The poultry industry forms an integral part of the Agro - processing sector in Namibia. This sector offers significant potential to increase value addition, to create jobs, income and export opportunities to enhance food security and reduce dependence on imports and hence, has been prioritised by government through various policy initiatives. Presently, the sector unfortunately faces many constraints across the whole value chain which requires systematic planning from both government and private sector in order to develop a robust and sustainable sector which can positively grow the sector and the economy at large. Poultry production is in its infancy stage in Namibia. Until 2012, Namibia imported all its poultry products. Government under the Ministry of
Industrialisation, Trade and SME Development (MITSMED) made the decision to protect the industry through quantitative restriction measures using the Import and Export Act no. 30 of 1994. The quantitative restriction gives room for new poultry production to set up without major threats from imports. Namibia's total demand for poultry products per month is estimated to be between 3000 and 3500 tonnes. Namib Poultry Industry (NPI) presently, the only broiler company in Namibia, is able to supply the domestic market with about 1800 tonnes per month, about 50% of domestic demand. The quantitative restriction measures allow maximum importation of 1500 tonnes per month. The protection had a positive impact in the poultry industry in the sense that many people see great opportunities to stimulate production and supply the domestic market. Opportunities in this industry are at two levels. The first level is to enter into broiler production. This requires large investments as it is capital intensive. Bio-safety systems and advanced infrastructure is a must and therefore a highly skilled labour force is crucial to the successful operation of the business. Feed cost takes up to 60% of the total production cost or more. Unfortunately, Namibia is a net importer of feed. Poultry feed production could therefore also be a positive spin-off in this industry. Water is also a big component of broiler production and due to the shortage of water in and around Windhoek, future productions are viable in areas like Otavi, Ovamboland, Rundu and Katima Mulilo. Large productions also have the advantage of producing for neighbouring markets such as Zambia, Zimbabwe, Congo DR etc. Namibia has an advantage in the logistics hub
5
connecting to all these markets. The second level targets the small and medium enterprises. There is a high demand of indigenous chicken in Namibia. Small scale poultry farming has the potential to lead rural industrialisation in the regions, especially at such times where the effects of drought has threaten food security at house and national level. Most of the rural households in Namibia have always traditionally kept chicken for own consumption. This 'indigenous knowledge' factor is the comparative advantage government should take advantage of by planning targeted programmes to make this a reality. Women and youth in rural areas stand to benefit most in indigenous poultry farming. A business model which allows the youth to take over the running of business systems while the women focus on production could be viable. Indigenous chicken farming is less capital intensive, with a low rate of disease outbreak as the breed is adaptable to the environmental conditions. They also require flexible feeding ratios and feed is easily sourced, as it can be anything from mahangu, rice, insects and maize by-products etc. It requires less veterinary services and infrastructure is simple and cost effective. Support should be in the form of availing start-up inputs as well as training in poultry management and husbandry. For more information on the poultry sector and how to start poultry farming, don't hesitate to contact us at the Namibia Trade Forum. They
say the first step to starting is information empowerment.

Heavy lift vessel carrying oil rig heading for Walvis Bay
A rather unusual visitor is sailing for Walvis Bay. The semi-submersible heavy lift ship, Transporter, piggy backing the jack-up oil rig, Maersk Highlander, is expected off Walvis Bay by Tuesday for a brief call to take on supplies. The vessel is underway to the North Sea to deliver the rig to its new owner, Maersk Drilling (picture right by way of illustration). The semi-submersible heavy lift vessel, as its description indicates, can partly sink allowing for heavy vessels and rigs to float onto its deck where after the vessel re-floats lifting her cargo dry from the water (pictured above). Transporter was originally scheduled to drop anchor off Walvis Bay on Sunday, but rough weather in the Indian Ocean caused delays and provisional rescheduling to Tuesday. The vessel sailed from Singapore recently and was off Port Elizabeth by early yesterday afternoon.

Swakopmund Matters An article in The Guardian of 4 July 2016 mentioned that the United Kingdom had launched an expedition as part of a £12.5m (N$ 230 m) EU-funded research program called Blue Mining, which also involved biologists and ecologists, with the purpose of exploring the mining of rich metal deposits on the deep ocean floor “to really trying to understand what the environmental impact might be if these deposits are ever exploited commercially”. Access this article with this link: https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2016/jul/04/uk-expedition-explor espotential-and-risks-of-deep-sea-gold-rush
The article concludes by quoting the International Seabed Authority stating that its regulations give “special emphasis to ensuring that the marine environment is protected from any harmful effects which may arise during mining activities, including exploration”. The opinion of the UK's National Oceanography Centre was that information from the Blue Mining program would help policymakers decide whether these deposits could and should be exploited: “There are sensitivities around mining and always have been”. The concern of renowned oceanographic explorer, Sylvia Earle, is recorded: “What are we sacrificing by looking at the deep sea with dollar signs on the few tangible materials that we know are there? We haven't begun to truly explore the ocean before we have started aiming to exploit it.” Namibia Marine Phosphates (NMP) issued a media release on 17 June 2016 regarding the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) of its Sandpiper
processing will take place, both components of the project need to be addressed together before an environmental clearance could even be considered. Currently there is no clarity provided by NMP on how and where the dredged material will be processed. The media release sings NMP's praises for “full compliance with current environmental and mineral legislation.” That is factually not true. The regulatory EIA process has been totally unsatisfactory: no participatory or open presentation of the repeated EIA for scrutiny by the public, I&APs, other involved industry, or genuinely independent reviewers. Duly registered I&APs have not even been informed, nor consulted. That is contrary to the letter and spirit of all the relevant provisions in the Environmental Management Act and its accompanying Regulations pertaining to the involvement of I&APs and the regulatory path an EIA must follow leading up to the EC's certificate of compliance.
Phosphate Project. This is all that is in the public domain. Its reworked/revised EIA has been submitted to the Environmental Commissioner (EC). It has NOT been officially released for review, comments and criticism from the public; and likewise all duly registered Interested and Affected Parties (I&APs) have neither been informed of the additions to the EIA nor supplied with electronic access to these additional documents that are part of the EIA. The media release quotes several figures. They, however, remain predictions and promises. To have any significance they must be evaluated by I&APs and, if necessary, by a proper unconstrained review for expert analysis. Not a few I&APs NMP has selected. Nor experts who have been and still are NMP consultants and who have been appointed by the CSIR who have been party to the EIA from the start with a direct material interest in the consultancy process. Independent expert opinion must come from independent reputable experts who have sound and intimate knowledge of the Namibian marine waters. Peer review must be seen to have been done professionally by outsiders, not in-house selected “experts.” Internationally recognised independent experts will scrutinise submissions without fear or favour and will validate their comments and conclusions accordingly. Such a process will instill confidence. However, the opposite is the case with NMP's submissions to the EC which were then reviewed by a local non-marine individual. The media release repeatedly mentions “development.” The EIA submitted only focuses on the sea-based activities that involve dredging the seabed. When will an EIA be done to outline the activities planned on land to further process the dredged material? Unless no onshore
NMP is ignoring and contravening the explicit regulatory provisions guaranteeing a well defined role for all I&APs in this process. As with NMP's previous endeavor to bypass I&APs in 2012 it is now using the same ploy. Fortunately the EC was at that time not impressed with that effort and denied a clearance certificate to NMP in April 2012. He referred the EIA back to Sandpiper “due to inadequate consultations with all interested and affected parties, as required by the Environmental Management Act No. 7 of 2007, section 33 (2) (a).” It is hoped that the EC again notices this renewed effort by NMP to circumvent clearly defined Regulations whereby registered I&APs are being totally ignored. Much is being said about the N$14 m NMP has spent for a “verification study.” This is part of a risk assessment. Before beginning a project, any company should have also projected that it was possible that the project would not be granted clearance and that this was a risk the company was willing to take. Spending a lot of money neither translates into delivery of good quality studies, nor should it have any connection to securing an environmental clearance. Just because NMP has spent this money on studies does not have any bearing on the quality of the studies whatsoever and certainly should not guarantee an environmental clearance certificate. According to the Environmental Management Act, the onus is on the proponent to show scientific certainty. This NMP still has not done! NMP simply hasn't proven beyond any reasonable doubt to IA&Ps and the public at large, any scientific certainty about the damage that could be expected by mining. No one knows for sure whether that has been given to the satisfaction of the Ministry of Environment and Tourism
(MET) and the Ministry of Fisheries and Marine Resources (MFMR). The media release refers to “a group of Interested and Affected Parties (including the Confederation of Namibian Fishing Associations (CNFA), specific fishing associations, NGO's and Ministry of Fisheries and Marine Resources)” but how was this "group" assembled and at whose invitation. If this selected “group of I&APs” has been able to comment on the verification study, then their comments should form part of the public consultation communication trail and therefore available to all I&APs. It further refers to a “UNAM representative.” How is this person qualified to make any statement to be taken seriously in this context. The media release has certainly raised more questions than it answered. The bottom line coming out of it shows that NMP is not prepared to commit its studies and EIA to registered I&APs for review and comments, let alone independent, internationally recognised expert analysis – not to be done by individuals
hand-picked by NMP. Surely the Government is not so gullible to swallow both the promises of riches together with claims that such an activity will do no harm to the marine ecosystem. In view that marine mining is accepted to cause damage anywhere else in the world where it is being planned, it is extraordinarily irresponsible for NMP to claim that this will not be the case in Namibia, where the area can be considered even more sensitive because the mining operations are proposed within our country's valuable fishing grounds. NMP has the whole original EIA on their website. Why don't they make the Verification Reports available the same way? It must be clear that by trying to deny all I&APs of any involvement NMP hopes that the EC will this time side with NMP and also prefer to cut I&APs from the consultative process despite the clear and unambiguous prescriptions under which he has to perform his duties before considering a clearance certificate.

No free land for MOHSS The Swakopmund Town Council will not give a huge piece of land to the Ministry of Health and Social Services (MoHSS) for free to construct a brand new Regional Referral Hospital in the town. Although a piece of land was in principle allocated to the ministry a few months ago, the ministry recently applied for the freebie. Carlito Spencer Karlo This is witchcraft....A government project on state land...so municipalities own land in Namibia.
Coastal road also upgraded Both coastal roads between Swakopmund and Walvis Bay, namely the B2 highway and the road behind the dunes, will be upgraded to tarred dualcarriageways over the course of the next three years. The groundbreaking ceremony for the first phase of the project, the upgrade of the salt road C28 (MR44) behind the dunes to the tune of N$960 million took place last week (namib times reported).

Namibia Sports Commission trains new commissioners The Namibia Sports Commission had a two day induction training last week in Swakopmund, the main purpose of the induction training was for the newly elected commissioners who will be serving the sport commission for three years, to align their plans and visions with the Namibia Sports Act so that they can act within the framework of that Act. Dawn Els 1990, when Namibia became independent, it met with other Africa politics in a very severe way. I won't forget that... Frankie Fredericks was feared, and also the Namibian boxers. FESCAABA of 1991? (The photograph was our team - I still took all the measurements of the boxers, tailored most of the clothes, had sewing help from Frankie's mom who worked for Singer those years) held in Windhoek - but then I noticed how sport politics go..... What was i.m.o. one of the top boxers in the world, had his career drowned by sport politics. At that time already, even this lovely youngster was also feared. But beautiful Namibia, you have the spirit that became as a home to me during 10 years I lived there..... You can. Sport commissioners do need to be educated to ward of all enemies that are not exactly sport oriented..... Dawn Els Oh no, this is the very last one, the 'orphan' of 'old regime' rugby! This was internal politics that kept this world quality No. 7 down and then, after Nam Independence, he got his opening. Andre Stoop, then already in his thirties if I remember correctly, could run a path like a fox. But 'they' treated him like a runt.
Swakopmunders are proud of our lovely town, and we have much to be thankful for. We have the ocean at our doorstep, lovely gardens and historic and appealing buildings. We have also been fortunate enough to have a municipality which has kept our town from bankruptcy, unlike so many other towns which have squandered their cash reserves, mismanaged their water and power resources, and allowed their towns to become dirty and fall into disrepair. Viva Swakopmund! We trust that our change in municipal councillors with little experience, will not lead us down the wrong paths. We have the benefit of our Neighbourhood Watch, where good men volunteer, at personal cost, to safeguard our neighbourhoods. We owe them a debt of gratitude and those of us who are able to volunteer to join the association, should not hesitate to stand up and be counted, in all sections of Swakopmund. Criticism is too easily given as for every critical comment that is made we must consider all the positive actions which far outweigh any negative opinion. We must take care not to lose a positive and vital resource which our town needs. Too often people who have burglary or security problems find that our police force is unable to help, and then help is gained from our Neighbourhood Watch members instead. This resource should be valued and supported. 085999 is the number to ring for help, or to make a donation. The news of the Norwegian diplomat who was brutally atttacked on the pavement outside The Tug Restaurant some weeks ago was shocking, but not surprising. Sadly, the extensive beach area between Tiger Reef and the Beach Hotel has attracted too many unsavoury types who prey on tourists and scam them in many ways. The makalani seed sellers, in particular, have long been a problem in Swakopmund. They are often drunk and abusive and they accost our tourists and harass them as they try to move on. This stretch of our beach is a wellknown danger area for theft, muggings and violence and many sad stories can be told. One remembers Alexandra Mooren, who was shot and killed on that beach as far back as 2004.
We ask: Where are signs warning of the dangers in this area? Where are regular police patrols keeping the area clear of criminal activity? Why has no action ever been taken to protect our tourists and citizens? We appeal to our municipality, our Police Force and any other relevant agency to act and prevent this popular area from becoming a place to be avoided. Complaints have also been received of muggings, pick-pocketing and cell-phone theft in the Pick-and-Pay/KFC area. Please take care to secure your belongings in this area and avoid all suspicious types who hang around, supposedly begging but also looking for an opportunity to steal. Once again a police presence would be appreciated. At the cenotaph/museum area, a narrow oneway road was constructed to allow cars travelling north to exit town and travel along Strand Street to reach the more northern areas. Very useful, but of course the one-way rule is constantly ignored and many vehicles use this road as a short cut to drive back into town, causing some confusion and annoyance to those who are obeying the law. If the demand is there, could this not become a two-way road? The construction area of the old swimming pool remains an eyesore too many months after demolition began and one wonders when progress will be seen? The road from Haus Hohenzollern down Libertina Amathila Street is full of potholes, which are left unrepaired. This road urgently needs attention. The painting of the lighthouse has been completed and it looks most effective. Good work! Great thanks to those people in Swakopmund who work with our feral cats, (The Cat Prevention Society) our SPCA which always needs support and donations, and the Have-aHeart Spay and Neuter Project. Thanks to those who look after and protect our most attractive guinea-fowls as well. They are always a special sight to see, and are much admired by Swakopmunders and visitors to our town. *********************************

Namport careers on showcase WALVIS BAY
Piquet Jacobs “The purpose for schools to participate at this event is to assist in general career planning to help inform young people about possible future opportunities and therefore, help inform subject selections and the career choices for the future,” said Acting Chief Executive Officer of the Namibia Port Authority (Namport), Mr Elzevir Gelderbloem, during the official opening of the three-day Namport Schools Exhibition on Tuesday, 5 July, at Walvis Bay. This years' theme surrounding the exhibition is to showcase the economic impact of the Maritime Industry on trade in Namibia from the year 1994 to 2016. “Namport has gone through remarkable transitions at various fronts, such as infrastructural development, management, operational improvements and strategic direction since it was integrated into Namibia in 1994,” added Gelderbloem. Through exhibitions such as this one, young people get a clear idea of the job opportunities in the maritime industry. More often than not Grade 12 graduates realise too late that they did not make the correct subject choices to pursue a specific career that they only get to know of after matric. The exhibition is not limited to schools and learners only, but to the general public. Some of the Namport departments that you will get to know at the exhibition are the Finance Department with information on accountants and chartered accountants; Operations Department which houses logistics specialists, crane operators and vessel and yard planners; and Marine Services
which showcases Captains of Vessels, tug masters, harbour pilots, port captains, marine engineers and deck officers. With this exhibition the aim for students is to find out what careers are on offer at an institution like Namport or similar institution in the maritime sector and for schools to directly network with Industry/ Business and showcase the school. Parents and the community have the opportunity to better understand what needs of some of these specialist careers are and how to guide their children into these future careers and engage with the youth. The conclusion by Gelderbloem, “The importance to give back to the communities in which we operate and depart knowledge simultaneously. The Maritime industry is an industry that is here to stay and I encourage our future leaders to be part of the economic growth for all Namibians. I would like to officially open the exhibition to the Public and familiarize yourselves with the activities which are taking place at the Namibian Ports Authority which will benefit our immediate communities.”

Epanga group takes another stop in helping the government fight poverty Sharlien Tjambari
On Tuesday, 5 June, three ladies from Epango Charity Group and the Governor of Erongo Region Mr Cleophas Mutjavikua donated two hundred and fifty (250) blankets to the OVC's from Ebenhaeser Primary School in Karibib and Otjimbingwe Primary School in Otjimbingwe. Epango Group is a Non-profit /Charity organisation from Swakopmund, consisting of a group of ladies who are passionate about helping the orphans and vulnerable children (OVC's) and to cater for the needy all over Namibia but they are all based in Swakopmund. The blankets were equally shared amongst the two schools. Annette Tjaveondja, Ratonda Katjivikua and Marcella Kamajova from Epango were very touched to see so many OVC's at the two schools. The trio said they are willing to do whatever it takes to help the OVC's around the country, “it is very disturbing to see how many of the children live in poverty in Namibia but nothing is being done about the living conditions of OVC's in our beautiful country. The government should stop investing more money in building infrastructure and help the OVC's of this country” Tjaveondja adds. One parent who was at the handover ceremony of the blankets in Otjimbingwe was very pleased to see children receiving blankets, even though her child was not amongst the ones who received the blankets, “I am very happy and thankful to you, you who think of other people's children's instead of being greedy, I hope the parents of these beneficiaries will also appreciate this gesture and make sure that the blankets remains with the children for a very long time” she said. Mutjavikua said the Epango initiative is very helpful because it provoked the Office of the Governor to come on board. “I know the situation in some of our towns is not that good, we are struggling, parents are struggling and some children are at schools during the day and become parents to their younger brothers and sisters after school” said Mutjavikua. Mutjavikua urged the school principals and teachers to identify the families of such learners so that whenever they are reaching out, they know exactly where the target is because most of the time they just shoot in the air and not at the target. Mutjavikua further said that Erongo region is a big region and if the principal or the people do not bring their problems to him, then he will not know what they need or if they need anything at all, “only those who raise their voices will be heard,” he adds. The Governor told the learners during the handover ceremony that the only thing that's important in life is education. The learners also received tins of fish from Namsov Fishing Enterprise and Etosha Fishing. Other Sponsors are First National Bank and Areva Namibia and the Office of the Governor. Areva Namibia have doubled their sponsorship this year making them the main sponsor of the event.

Blood donations could drop as much as 50%, due to the measles and rubella nationwide immunization campaign The Ministry of Health and Social Services will be vaccinating everyone from 9 months to 39 years old against Rubella and Measles, from 11 July – 22 July 2016. This will have a big impact on the country's blood supply, as all donors who have received the vaccination will be deferred from donating blood for 30 days. “I would like to appeal to our regular blood donors to please come and donate blood before you are immunized” says Zita Tobin, Head: PR, Promotions and Recruitment at NAMBTS. Once our donors have been immunized they will need to wait 4 weeks before they can donate blood. This will definitely affect our donations which already took a steady decline since Winter started, as many donors suffer from colds and flu. Sr Judith Sinvula Manager: Clinic Division says, “In almost all cases your eligibility will be based on your condition and the medication prescribed. As long as the condition is under control and you are healthy, blood donation is usually permitted. However, we need to defer donors for 4 weeks after immunizations for German Measles (Rubella), MMR (Measles, Mumps and Rubella), Chicken Pox and Shingles”. Sinvula also echoes the appeal for all donors to come forward before they are immunized. We are also appealing to those donors who have not donated for a while and members of our communities who have not donated before to come forward and make a lifesaving donation, before the immunization campaign commences. Those interested in becoming a blood donor should be older than 16 years, weigh more than 50kg, lead a sexually safe lifestyle and enjoy general good health. Donors in Windhoek and at the Coast can donate at: · 35 Tal Street – 07h00-16h00, Windhoek. · United House Building, Independence Avenue from 08h3016h00 · Swakopmund Centre 13:00-18:00 (Monday's only) · Walvis Bay Centre 13:00-18:00 (Tuesday's only)

Monthly Monitor: June 2016 The main event of June 2016 has been the surprise outcome of the vote of British citizens in favour of the United Kingdom (UK) exiting the European Union (EU). Market Review: June can be clearly divided into started to reverse. It will be a long two. The time leading up to 23rd time before the UK officially June ('Brexit' vote) was one of leaves the EU. There is still much optimism. Investors did not expect to be negotiated on, including the UK to vote 'leave'. Investor terms of trade and labour sentiment was risk-on with movement.

However, only a few days later See Table 1 below for asset class these negative effects had already returns over various periods:
Recent ZAR strength has lifted local bond performances for the YTD, and dragged down the performance of foreign shares in local currency terms. In June, Standard and Poor's rating agency decided to leave SA's foreign credit rating the same, giving SA more time to get its finances in order.
This was done despite increasing food inflation in a slowing economy. The downgrade avoided also fuelled ZAR gains. In addition, the United States Federal Reserve kept interest rates on hold once again at their June meeting. This has been based on slowing global trade and downwardly

predictable given enough time. Table 2 shows the 1-year and 3-year (per annum) returns ending June 2016 of our five managed portfolios.
Conclusion: Whilst short-term noise (such as a surprise 'Brexit' vote) can disrupt global markets to a serious extent in the short term, it is important for investors to remain focused on the long term. This point is proven in Table 2 above which shows how portfolio performances move closer to their expected returns over the longer term (such as 3 years) despite severe market volatility in the shorter term (such as 1 year). We urge investors to practice patience and

A bit of this and that. Lately there is quite an awareness of the ramifications caused by BREXIT and the influence thereof on the international money markets. Also, the slow price increases of crude oil and uncertainties about the presidential outcome in America later this year, do have an effect on performances at the international financial platforms and stock-exchanges. It is true that there are ripple effects of these sentiments that filter into, especially, the developing countries. As it is said “if the international markets sneeze, we catch a cold” – however, it is in my opinion not all doom & gloom and normally quite a lot is learned from these happenings during the past two decades and matters always stabilises itself again. Reading and watching the media could cause the ill-informed to conclude a very negative perception and even fear of the future. But it is those with a positive approach that help to remedy adverse scenarios the soonest. From this background, it is notable that some people ascribe the current slump in the local property market as a result of the aforesaid happenings in global markets. I question this as e.g. the delay in construction in Windhoek due to an extreme water shortage has nothing to do with the international forums. As long as our economy is not directly dependant on commodities such as crude oil, etc. our capital projects and developments will still continue and our property market as a consequence will remain active and vibrant. Interesting is the number of lodges, B&B's and guest farms that came up for sale – perhaps this is more a result of insufficient or low-level marketing as most foreigners know Namibia to be an attractive destiny for tourism with affordability through a very favourable exchange-rate. Else, it could be the severe drought in areas that cripple the entrepreneur. It is furthermore apparent that many Homeowners who rent out, Sellers and Buyers became selective in the choice of a fewer number of Estate Agencies to work with in their endeavours to success and satisfaction. Focussed attention is then given by such agencies to assist clients. Gone are the days of a multiple number of Agency boards on a premises where seemingly everyone “merely take a shot in the dark” whilst the prospective client is confused as to who to contact. Our agency has for example sold a number of properties without any display board on the property whilst others had theirs cluttered along and even over each other. My conclusion is that we've entered a new sphere in the approaches of all parties active in the local property arena and dogmatic methods have been surpassed by new technology and lifestyles of the younger generations with a consequence of “adapt or die”.

An der Atlantikküste,in der Namibwüste Auf den Spuren Martin Luthers Vertretung Vertretung Die Spuren Martin Luthers sind nicht nur in Deutschland oder Europa, sondern auf der ganzen Welt zu entdecken. Ganz besonders ist dabei die Musik zu erwähnen. Luther war ein singender Theologe, die Reformation daher eine singende Bewegung.

Vom 5.bis 15. Juli wird das SopranDuo „IN DUE" Heidrun und Christiane Heinke in Namibia auftreten; beides klassisch ausgebildete Künstlerinnen und darüber hinaus Mutter und Tochter, die seit Jahren erfolgreich zusammen arbeiten.

Zum Schmunzeln Es waren einmal drei Wissenschaftler, die keine laufenden Projekte hatten. Sie einigten sich daher nach langer Debatte darauf, den Einfluss von Verstopfung an Schweinen zu untersuchen. Also beschafften sie sich ein Schwein und verstopften sein Hinterteil mit einem Korken. Nun fütterten sie das Schwein jeden Tag, wogen und vermassen es, bis es nach einem Monat ungefähr so gross wie eine Kuh war. Nicht, dass das Schwein Schäden dadurch davongetragen hätte. Es lebte noch, frass fleissig weiter und wuchs von Tag zu Tag. Es war aber so, dass das Schwein zu gross für das Labor wurde, also entschieden die Wissenschaftler, das Schwein nach draußen zu verlagern und das Experiment dort weiterzuführen. Nach ein paar Monaten hatte das Schwein nunmehr die Größe eines Elefanten. Es lebte aber noch und frass fleissig. Die Wissenschaftler wollten nun das Experiment eigentlich nicht weiter führen und entschieden, den Korken zu entfernen und alles einzustellen. Nur, keiner der drei wollte derjenige sein, der den Korken entfernen sollte. Es wurde dann entschieden, ei-
Die Laborratte! nen Affen darauf zu trainieren, den Korken zu entfernen. Also wurde ein Affe herangeschafft und trainiert, wodurch noch ein paar Monate ins Land gingen, währenddessen das Schwein fleißig weiterfraß und größer wurde. Endlich war den Tag gekommen, die drei Wissenschaftler gingen mit Affe und Leiter (weil das Schwein mittlerweile mehr als doppelt so groß wie ein Elefant war) auf das Feld. Sie stellten den Affen oben auf die Leiter und entfernten sich. Nach 20 Metern meinte der erste Wissenschaftler, es sei weit genug. Die anderen beiden entfernten sich jedoch weiter, der eine auf 50 und der letzte auf 100 Meter Entfernung. Als alle bereit waren, gab der erste Wissenschaftler dem Affen ein
Zeichen und es kam ein Schwall von Schweinemist. Der dritte stand bis über die Füsse darin. Als er es endlich geschafft hatte, seinen Kollegen zu befreien, der bis zum Brust korb eingeschlossen war, machten sich die beiden gleich dran, auch den letzten zu befreien, der nicht mehr zu sehen war. Als dies geschehen war, fanden sie den ersten Wissenschaftler, der geradezu hysterisch von einem Lachkrampf geschüttelt wurde. Dies konnten sie nun überhaupt nicht verstehen und fragten ihn, als er sich beruhigt hatte, was denn so komisch daran sei, bis über den Hals in Schweinemist zu stehen. Darauf der Wissenschaftler: "Ihr hättet den Gesichtsausdruck von dem Affen sehen sollen!” Eingesandt!

An der Atlantikküste,in der Namibwüste locker vom Höckerchen Strandwolfforschung Ganz Auf der Spur der Braunen Hyäne Swakopmund (sk) Seit knapp 20 Jahren ist die Hamburger Biologin Dr. Ingrid Wiesel dabei, die Schabrackenhyäne in Namibia zu erforschen. Sie hat auch das Brown Hyena Research Project ins Leben gerufen. Im Grunde genommen gibt es keinen ausschlaggebenden Konflikt zwischen den Hyänen und den Interessen des Menschen, meint die Forscherin. Das Problem sei eher, dass wir zu wenig über Ein 7 Monate altes Jungtier in den Ruinen diese Raubtiere wissen der Geisterstadt bei Elizabeth Bay.

Haltet unser Namibia sauber! Keep Namibia clean!
Liebe Küstenleser! Stellenweise ist das Kuisebdelta südlich unserer Hafenstadt mit undurchlässig-dichtem Schilf bewachsen. Bei einer Wanderung durch diese grandiose Riviermündung verliert man dann den sonst so selbstverständlichen Weitblick, und bei drohender Gefahr gibt es hier keine Möglichkeit zu entweichen. Just in der Enge des Rieddickichts, entdeckten mein Sohn und ich eine große, ganz frische, hundeähnliche Spur vor uns, von der wir vermuteten, dass sie von einer Schabrackenhyäne stammt. Die ist hier nämlich hin und wieder gesichtet worden. Oder handelte es sich vielleicht doch um den Pfotenabdruck eines Hundes, der unter Umständen vom Auto gefallen war? Es fiel nämlich auf, dass der Tapfen der kleinen Hinterpfote immer dicht auf die mächtige Vorderpfote folgte, weshalb ich meinte: ,,Also, was auch immer das für ein Viech ist, es muss entweder verletzt oder besoffen sein.”
Braunen Hyänen ja auch genannt werden, extrem scheu und laufen eher weg, wenn sie etwas Ungewohntes hören...und wir haben zumindest laut palavert. Das Foto, das ich von der Vorderpfote gemacht hatte, schickte ich dann per Mail an Ingrid Wiesel, eine Hamburger Biologin, die seit 17 Jahren in Lüderitz lebt und das Brown Hyena Re-

MOTORING
Toyota Surges Ahead With Hilux And Fortuner Once again, unabated demand for the all-new, eighth-generation Hilux with 3 072 sales, has placed it ahead in the motoring top five, which includes Toyota stablemate Fortuner (1 405), SA's best-selling SUV nameplate for the past ten years. Sustained demand via both privateas well as very robust rental channels, for these and other Toyota models, has lifted the brand to a market-leading sales total of 9557 vehicles for the month of June; close to 2400 units in front of its nearest rival. This equates to a creditable market share of 21,27 per cent.
Toyota's Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing, Calvyn Hamman said the combined impact of general economic lethargy, new vehicle price increases, poor consumer confidence and lower finance approvals contributed to a less-than-desirable overall market result but that Toyota is 'weathering the storm
HILUX
well'. "Hilux is well placed to extend its remarkable run of 44 years as SA's best-selling bakkie and the results reflect the enviable reputation this vehicle has developed for toughness, reliability and - in the context of this latest generation - refinement too. "Fortuner's popularity is also very telling. No other SUV comes close to the volumes (1405) it achieves. RAV4 for example, which currently leads the compact SUV segment, sold 284 units this month. It has to be said though that RAV4 sales have been somewhat hamstrung by supply constraints as demand for this model remains very

high," Calvyn said. Other notable performers that have contributed to Toyota's sales success include the Corolla/ Auris/Quest triumvirate which achieved sales of 1300 units; Etios with 1009 retail units; Quantum with 991 sales and Land Cruiser pick-up which tabled a segment-leading 392 units. Hino sales for the month equalled the target of 327 units. It was another strong showing for the 300 series in the MCV segment with 205 units sold, only one unit behind the first-placed manufacturer and 27 more units than were sold in May 2016. Hino's MCV share remains constant at 26.3 per cent.

First MX in Swakopmund in six years
Erwin Leuschner
Dust, dirt and roaring motors. For the first time in six years the revamped motocross track northeast of Swakopmund was once again filled with motorbikes and utilised to its full potential. A total of 54 bikes with riders from across the country took part in the first Swakopmund official motocross practice day held last Saturday. “We were actually surprised how many riders and spectators showed up. We are really happy with the outcome,” said Mike Nederlof, one of the organisers, to namib times. For the past four weeks a team of motocross riders and enthusiasts spent their days at the old track to bring it up to scratch. “It is now a really nice track compared to before,” Nederlof continued. In total the track is 1.7 kilometres long and consists of eleven jumps of various sizes. “We also included a few more straights and brought in a lot of sand to fill all the waterholes,” he said. Most of the riders and attendees were impressed by
the high standard of the track, so much so, that it was already deter-mined that the Namibian Motocross Championship will be hosted there on the 22 October. “It was not a competition. We had various practice sessions for the different classes and a fun race in the end,” Nederlof continued. He wishes to extend his appreciation to Salt Company for making the ground available, as well as the other sponsors being Premier Construction, RB Builders, Coastal Cement Works and to Norbert Sadlowski. Nederlof revealed that the next event will be a fun race to take place later in the year. A date is yet to be determined.

Reptile Uranium contribute towards early childhood development program Sharlien Tjambari
Giving back to the community is one of many social responsibilities of Reptile Uranium Namibia. On Monday this week Reptile Uranium donated soccer kits consisting of 15 soccer shirts, 15 shorts, 15 pairs of goalie gloves, one whistle and one soccer ball to Coastal Eleven Sports Club, a local soccer team which consist of only school boys. Mr Martin Hirsch, the Exploration Manager of Reptile Uranium said Reptile Uranium is not a big company but the contributions they make in small circles, he believes, have an impact on the lives of the beneficiaries. “We would like to support sport activities and the children. In our latest corporate and social responsibility program, we focus more on early child development and education.” Hirsch further said
that he feels that there is a need for the children to be encouraged for sport activities and to get them off the streets, to develop self-esteem and also to have fun “because quite often children do not have the additional activities after school to keep them away from any other funny problems, but having sport activities around and being active will certainly keep them off the street and give them an additional purpose with fun.” The Coach of Coastal Eleven Sport Club, Mr Ashley Nanuseb is an ex-employee of Reptile Uranium. He says that he is very grateful and never expected something like this and he further said that he wrote to many companies requesting for help but to his surprise, his ex-employer assisted him. “The main reason I have come up with this team was to keep the children from the street and to develop their soccer skills” adds Nanuseb. Coastal Eleven was founded in 2015 by Ashley Nanuseb and consist of learners from different schools.
