Russian navy calls at Walvis Bay Multiple cable faults reason for electricity outages

∙ Historic moment in Namibian-Russian diplomatic relations ∙ Public can visit ship on Sunday

Erwin Leuschner The power supply to various parts of Swakopmund, especially the central business district (cbd), has for the past few days been continuously interrupted. It caused considerable disruptions to businesses.

Diplomatic history is in the making. A cruiser (anti-submarine), a naval tug and an auxiliary ship of the Russian Navy are scheduled to call at the port of Walvis Bay over the weekend. It is the first visit of the Russian Navy to Namibia.

The cruiser Severomorsk will be open for a public visit on Sunday between 10:00 and 13:00, a representative explained this week. Entry permits from Namport can be purchased by the public at the security office of the main gate at N$5-75. Members of the public are also advised Namport has a zerotolerance alcohol policy and all visitors will be screened.

Five month old baby boy dies after being left home alone for 13 hours Mother faces murder charge Sharlien Tjambari A five months old baby died in Kuisebmond in Walvis Bay on Wednesday, after the 29-year old mother left the child alone at home for thirteen hours. The mother now faces a charge of murder. The incident happened in David Hambunda Street.

The mother, who is employed by a security company, left for work on 22 March at 05:00 and returned home at 18:00 and found the child died.

According to Deputy Commissioner Ottilie Kashuupulwa, police regional crime investigations co-ordinator for Erongo, the lady told Nampol that the baby was not feeling well by the time she left for work and she was supposed to come back

home to take the baby to the clinic.

She never returned. “She left the house at 05:00 and return home at 18:00 only to discover that the baby had died.

A case of murder, alternative culpable homicide and negligence was opened and the lady is expected to appear in court today (Friday)” said Kashuupulwa.

Salt hauling contractor responsible for messy streets Floris Steenkamp Walvis Bay Salt Refiners yesterday admitted a contractor hauling bulk salt between its salt mine and the port of Walvis Bay is not performing to standards and is responsible for the spillage of water on the street surfaces of Kovambo Nujoma Drive and 5th Road.

“The problem has to do with multiple cable faults supplying electricity to the cbd,” explained Benjamin Nangombe, Public Relations & Marketing Officer at Erongo RED. Nangombe said yesterday to namib times that solving problem is currently the highest priority, which is why Erongo RED has dispatched additional technicians from Walvis Bay on Wednesday to investigate the exact cause and find a solution. “Some of the faults have been identified and the technicians are working on them,” he said.

According to him the current issues have no connection with the planned power outage, which affected certain areas of Swakopmund on Sunday. The power outage was initiated to give NamPower the opportunity to perform tests on the Swakopmund Substation transformers. The first unplanned power outage hit the CBD and areas of Kramersdorf again on Independence Day. “That problem was quickly identified and repaired,” Nangombe said.

Erongo RED experienced the multiple cable failures on Wednesday morning. The power supply to various areas of Swakopmund, including some northern suburbs as well, has been sporadically interrupted ever since. “We experienced many power surges on Wednesday resulting in various circuit breakers and a control box burning out,” said Ilse Marais from the Platz Am Meer shopping centre to namib times.

Although the shopping centre has back-up generators, these only kick in when the power supply is interrupted, but does not protect against surges. “We are not happy that we weren't warned that there are issues with the power supply. We could have prepared ourselves better as we have a lot of sensitive equipment in the mall,” she added.

Nangombe apologized for any inconvenience caused, saying that the technicians have been Continues on page 2

working around the clock to solve the problem. “I don't foresee the problem to last until the weekend and hope it will be sorted soon,” he said.

According to him some issues in certain areas have been resolved, but others are still being investigated. Yesterday the power supply to areas in the CBD cut off sporadically over the course of the morning. By 11:00 the power supply to some big businesses and surrounding areas, including the Strand Hotel, PicknPay, Spur, FNB, the Dome and the sport fields was still off.

Nangombe added that the faults on the cables can be caused by various factors. “They can be due to the weather, additional strain or wear and tear to name a few,” he said.

Security guard assaulted for daring to inquire over his salary in arrears Sharlien Tjambari Fillemon Haufiku (35) a security guard at ASST Security Company since July 2016 was brutally assaulted by his supervisor on Wednesday after a fight occurred during a meeting which was called by the manager/boss of ASST and the manager of Safari Projects.

According to Haufiku ASST have not paid him his salary since December 2016 and the reason the Manager always gives him is that Safari Projects have not paid ASST and that is the reason why he (Fillemon) is not paid and they say they (ASST) do not have money to pay him. Fillemon works every-day 18:00-06:00. Fille-mon however does not know whether the other guy who guards the place during the day is also having the same problem or not.

Even though Fillemon was not paid at the end of December and January, he says he continued working because ASST Security Company has a no work no pay policy and he was afraid if he miss work he will not receive his salary.

“Since I started, the company would sometimes pay me half of my salary and promise to pay up the rest but they never bring their end of the deal” said Haufiku.

On Monday, 13 March, Haufiku received a phone call from his boss, a certain Mr. Koch, who he said is his boss, instructing Haufiku to meet him at Safari Projects at 14:00 on Wednesday, the call further said the reason for the meeting was to go and get money from the Owner of Safari Projects. Haufiku was apparently excited to hear the great news and when Wednesday came he made sure to be there on time. Upon arrival he noticed that his supervisor was also present, together with the manager of ASST Se-curity and the owner of Safari Projects. They allegedly went into the office in which a quarrel transpired between the two bosses and the supervisor because the manager of Safari Projects was not happy with ASST services and with the supervisor because he told the supervisor to tell the guards to start from 17:00-06:00 instead of six-six, and that was the reason he apparently didn't pay the security company. It was upon that time that the supervisor turned to Haufiku and started accusing him of arson because someone apparently tried burning his

Fillemon Haufiku - allegedly beaten up shack over the weekend and Haufiku asked him how it could have been him because he was at a church function all weekend. “I also asked him why he have not been to the police if he thought it was me. To that he got very defensive and told me not to backchat him and threatened to kill me even in front of the bosses, he started kicking me and hitting me with fists. He pushed me against the wall and to the floor and had his feet at my neck and said he will kill me if I do not say it was me who tried burning his shack, it was only then that the manager of the security company demanded him to leave me alone” said Haufiku.

They allegedly left Haufiku on the floor while bleeding and continued discussing their issues. He was apparently on the floor bleeding from mouth and nose for close to an hour until he regained his strength and came to his senses which was at 16:00. According to him he asked them to at least drop him at the hospital and then to the police station for him to open a case and to that they threatened him that if he opens a case then the supervisor will also go open a case of arson.

They eventually took him to the police station where he wanted to give his statement but was told that they cannot attend to him while he was bleeding and was given a form to take along to the hospital in order for him to get treated.

He received medical treatment and was told to go back to the hospital for a check-up after 7 day because his left ear was affected and he cannot hear well.

“Yesterday I asked about my salary again

and the manager via text message said 'I have to go back to that boss and he must work out our money. I have nothing yet', I am still waiting to see if they will pay me what they owe me or not and I have decided not to go back to work following the incident that took place” adds the sad and disappointed Haufiku. namib times got hold of the Manager of ASST Protection Security to find out what really let to the assault on Haufiku, because Haufiku claim that the manager was also in the room during the time the supervisor attacked him, the Manager who identified himself as Koch said he does not want to comment on such things. “If you say it was a story of assault then the right person to talk to would be the police, I will not be interrogated by a newspaper” Koch added. He however did not deny not knowing Haufiku or whatsoever. namib times also got hold of the Owner of Safari Projects but he denied ever having a security guard guarding his premises and said all this years he have been guarded by G4S only and is not aware of such a company.

A case number CR31/03/2017 was re-corded at Swakopmund Police Station.

Deputy Commissioner Ottilie Kashuupulwa, police regional crime investigations co-ordinator for Erongo yesterday confirmed that a case was reported and said the suspect who was identified as Gerson Seibeb apparently beat Haufiku because Haufiku apparently send him a text message saying he will burn his house.

Seibeb was supposed to appear in court yesterday (Thursday).

The region that keeps on giving, to get more Development Bank to stimulate growth in Erongo region

Photo:

20170317 DBN Erongo More finance for the region that keeps on giving. The Development Bank of Namibia is promoting itself in the Erongo with the goal of stimulating additional demand for finance.

The region that keeps on giving, to get more Development Bank to stimulate growth in Erongo region Development Bank of Namibia (DBN) Erongo Portfolio Manager, Simeon Unotjari Kahona, has announced that the

Bank is seeking opportunities to stimulate more demand for finance in the Erongo region. In terms of the Bank's additional focus on infrastructure and business projects, identified in the Harambee Prosperity Plan (HPP), the Bank will seek out projects promoted by private entrepreneurs, through public private partnerships (PPPs), as well as projects identified by the regional council and local authorities.

However the Bank

will also seek to finance projects that are unique to the economy of the Erongo region.

Talking about the requirement for energy, noted in HPP, Kahona says that the Bank has advanced N$280 million to Erongo RED to ensure supply of electricity, financing was also advanced for Arandis solar project and is also engaged in project finance to secure bulk fuel supply for Namibia.

Among the additional projects that the Bank

envisages financing are local authority projects, through PPPs, to develop serviced land, for affordable housing. Kahona adds that the Bank will also finance social infrastructure in Erongo, noting that economic development should walk hand-in-hand with socio-economic development, if greater levels of economic activity are to be of benefit to citizens of the region. Kahona also says that the region has the potential to strengthen

its own internal economy to serve the needs and wants of its enterprises. The Bank believes there is more opportunity to finance light engineering industry that services marine enter-prises and the transport and logistics sector, the developing energy sector, and the marine Products processing subsector.

These projects should have an annual turnover, or projected annual turnover, of N$10 million or more. In terms of local consumer de-

mand, Kahona announced N$25 million in finance for local food manufacturing, for African Deli, an enterprise established to manufacture instant meals with an African flair. This, he says, shows that there is potential in Erongo to fulfill regional demand, that can extend nationally and further into the SADC market.Kahona concludes by saying that Erongo is a region that keeps on giving to Namibia's national economy, and the Bank treats it as a gateway

for development in light of this. In the period between 2004 to January 2017, the Bank has provided more than N$4,4 billion in finance to the region. In line with its national gateway status, the majority of that finance, N$3,3 billion was allocated to transport and logistics.

This was followed by allocation of N$451 million to the electricity sector and N$197 million to business services.

According to Mr Abraham Ashipala of Namwater, World Water Day is commemorated for a number of reasons, namely, to celebrate water and life to promote public awareness on values of our water resources, to promote the wise use of water resources, to draw attention of the public to the threat and pressure to our water resources and to enhance people's understanding of water resources and our shared responsibilities towards resources, as well as to encourage communities particularly the youth to get involved in the wise use and management of water. A series of exciting events aimed at raising awareness and education on water related issues focusing attention on the importance of freshwater and advocating for the sustainable management of freshwater resources were incorporated in this year's celebration.

The theme for this year is: “WASTE WATER”.

Ashipala further said that 97% of the Earth's water

is salty water and only 3% of the earth's water is safe for drinking. He said Namibia is a very dry country with very little water and people need to be educated on the safe use of water because water is a nonrenewable resource, once water is finished then it is gone and cannot be replaced.

Ashipala continued saying that having a number of water saving measures in place which include inspections of pipelines regularly fixing of pipes leakages and breaks, replacement of ageing infrastructure, and doing water balance. “We are polluting and wasting fresh water that is available, yet the population and development keep growing. We cannot continue using water the way we do as water is unsustainable” said Ashipala. This year the commemoration targeted school learners because NACOMA beliefs in educating learners because the learners are the future generation said Iina Ruben a NACOMA Young Professional. Other stakeholders present were officials from Nadeet and Namwater as well as representatives from the Swakopmund Municipality's department of environmental health services.

Fire at service station at Arandis A fire at the Puma Service Station in Arandis destroyed a part of the building in the early hours on Monday. “The fire was confined to the kitchen area, said police spokesperson Deputy Commissioner Ottilie Kashuupulwa yesterday to namib times. The cause of the fire and the extent of the damage are yet to be established.

Ellen Hoebeb Maybe a short cuicut or arson but let's wait for the authorities to Geingob: “Harambee should not be make their findings.

Vehicle catches fire and burns ridiculed or scoffed at”

President Hage Geingob has called on all Namibians to embrace the spirit of Harambee and move the country forward. This was his key message when he addressed Namibians during the country's 27th Independence celebrations at Rundu yesterday. President Geingob looked back on the country's achievements since Independence 27 years ago, saying that there is a lot to be grateful for. However, he warned, there are “centrifugal forces” who are locked on “destroying what took us so many years and so much blood, sweat and tears to build.”

Ellen Hoebeb I congragulate his Excellency for a unifying message to all namibians, forgetting about what happened in the past is the first step in building a strong and unified Namibia..

Woman in near drowning incident at Langstrand A lady of an unknown age managed to escape certain death on Sunday while swimming in the ocean in the vicinity of Langstrand. According to the West Coast Safety Initiative the lady was swept away by the strong current and ended up in trouble and soon thereafter was unable to reach shore on her own. Friends came to her rescue in a nick of time when she started disappearing under the water. She was initially unconscious when she was pulled from the water but regained consciousness while enroute to hospital in Swakopmund. She was alert and conscious but it was decided to keep her overnight for observations.

Heatwave bordering 50 Degrees Celsius hits parts of the coast A heat wave coupled with scorching temperatures bordering the 50°C-mark has hit various parts of the coast of Namibia. Medical practitioners warn residents to take extra care during this extreme heat phase. Temperatures recorded on Monday ranged from at least 40.5°C (Swakopmund) to 46°C (Walvis Bay) and 46.5°C (Henties Bay). “Residents should take extra care and make sure they drink enough fluids,” said Aubrey Oosthuizen, coordinator of the West Coast Safety Initiative (WCSI), to namib times. Even though the extreme high temperatures bordered a new record, no person had been admitted to hospital due to heat-stroke or similar conditions at the Medi Clinic Hospital in Swakopmund, said hospital manager Peter Sander.

To the Editor 12 March 2017 Namib Times Dear Sir Recently we have seen that foreigners have more privileges in Namibia to that extend that the SME bank is rotten with corruption and Zimbabwians are preferred over Namibians to do basic jobs that Namibians can easily do. This is shocking that Zimbabwians even crocked the health system and yet the SWAPO government turns a blind eye.

We are writing to you from the Narraville holding cells where this practise of foreigners being treated like royalty and Namibians like shit is at the order of the day.

On a daily basis Zambians serve us Namibians food and they do so as if we are Rabies stricken dogs. They seem to be comrades with the police officers and they are treated as if they committed no crimes but yet they are in these cells for more than 9 months without bail this obviously means they have committed serious crimes. We personally feel that it enshrine in the constitution of Namibia that we are innocent until proven guilty, and as such we should be treated accordingly. From the Narraville holding cells we implore, lets make Namibians great again, Namibians serving Namibians with dignity. As things stand now we will be forced to do what our South African brothers did and turn xenophobic.

Drought the main reason to relocate this tourism treasure THE WILD HORSES OF THE NAMIB MAY DISAPPEAR Namibia's wild horses have lived in the desert for 100 years. They are one of the top ten tourist attractions in Namibia and they “embody the spirit of Namibia”. They have contributed to the promotion of Namibia as a destination and have been the subject of a number of documentaries about the country. The horses are also part of Namibia's history and heritage and are genetically differentiated from other horse breeds.

Twenty-two years of research has shown that the number of wild horses has varied due to changes in rainfall, often with many dying during droughts.

Donations from the generous national and international public that came to over N$1.5 million, have been used to buy food for them and as a result, there have been no deaths directly caused by malnutrition in the last two years. The supplementary feed has kept them going although it is still marginal.

Now, as well as having to cope with a serious lack of grazing from the latest drought, predation by hyaenas is threatening the survival of the wild horses in the Garub area of the Namib Naukluft National Park.

No foal has survived since 2013 and the horse population has steadily dropped. Due to the drought, most of the other migratory game has moved north and east looking for greener pastures which leaves mainly only horses to prey on in the

Garub area. Therefore, the rate of predation has increased significantly during the past two months.

The number of mares is down to 42 and we estimate that at this rate the population will be “functionally extinct” (some may still be around but it's inevitable that they will go extinct) by August.

Obviously, something has to be done without delay if the horses are to be saved. Killing the hyaenas is not an option. In a National Park this would be unethical. The alternatives are either to move the hyaenas or to move the horses.

The Namibia Wild Horses Foundation and the Ministry of Environment and Tourism, with input from the Hyaena Research groups, arrived at a conclusion that is hopefully best for both species.

The MET's primary objective of maintaining natural populations in a National Park rules out the possibility of relocating the hyaenas. Not only would this be difficult to justify but would be a fundamentally short term option as the vacuum would most probably be filled by other hyaenas.

However, it was agreed that a solution that would be best for both the hyaenas and the horses (or at least the large majority of them) is to move the horses, leaving the hyaenas to survive as before, by feeding on natural prey species such as oryx.

The immediate need is to take the pressure off the horses so to start with, the hyaenas will be provided with alternative prey that will be sourced from farms for as short a period as possible. This will give the Foundation time to find suitable land that could be

‘Unite to end TB’ theme of World TB Day

Piquet Jacobs

The world will be commemorating World TB Day today under the theme 'Unite to end TB'. The Ministry of Health and Social Services, made a statement that the event will be commemorated in Opuwo in the Kunene region.

World TB Day is designed to build public awareness that tuberculosis today remains an epidemic in much of the world, causing the deaths of nearly one-and-a-half million people each year, mostly in developing countries.

The first World TB Day celebration meeting was held by the WHO and the Royal Netherlands Tuberculosis Foundation in the year 1995 in Den Haag, Netherlands where it was declared to be celebrated annually. Next year in 1996, various organizations like WHO, the IUATLD and KNCV had organised variety of events and activities to conduct the World TB Day celebration.

The Namibia Fish Consumption Promotion Trust (NFCPT) recently donated N$50 000 to assist the Government of the Republic of Namibia through the Ministry of Health and Social Services, aimed at enhancing the quality of life against the national epidemic of TB. The donation will go towards an advertising campaign on the hosting of the World TB Day 2017 which will be commemorated at the Kunene region in Opuwo on 24 March.

“It remains our collective responsibility to ensure that we promote activities which will bolster social inclusion of all Namibians into the economic mainstream. It is only the guarantees of a healthy workforce that we can have productive citizens, which will aim towards the attainment of our National Development Goals, as well as the Harambee Prosperity Plan.

We can only have productive citizens, once we join

hands in the eradication of this epidemic known as Tuberculosis. Receiving the donation on behalf of the Ministry of Health and Social Services, Director General In the Erongo Region, Mr Jeremia Nghipundwa, stated that; the Ministry expressed their gratitude in particular to the Namibia Fish Consumption Promotion Trust for their unwavering support towards the cause of “uniting to end Tuberculosis”, said NFCPT CEO, Mr Victor Pea, in his keynote speech.

“The Ministry has indeed made great strides in the combating of Tuberculosis; we have ensured the consistent provision of high quality first- and second-line medicines for TB treatment, which are provided free of charge.

Our efforts have resulted in us being able to bring down the absolute number of Tuberculosis cases.

We humbly appeal to all members of society to join us to secure a Namibia free from Tuberculosis, the Namibia Fish Consumption Promotion Trust, must be applauded for making the fight against Tuberculosis a part of your Corporate Responsibility Initiatives, I look forward to multiple requests to join this fight”, added Mr Jeremia Nghipundwa.

Mr Jeremia further noted that; there is a need to remain pro-active in the fight against Tuberculosis, through the employment of increased care messages which are complimented with enhanced detection and treatment methods.

turned into a sanctuary in which the horses would live with the integrity of a wild population. The ideal location would be somewhere near the Garub area where the horses have lived for over 100 years and where they will still be accessible to the public.

The NWHF and MET will be cooperating closely to manage this crisis and although it can't be guaranteed, there's a good chance that there will be a happy ending for both the horses and the hyaenas.

“Our Private Banking customers can now settle their outstanding taxes through Electronic Funds Transfers (EFT), direct deposits or alternatively use POS devices which are available at most Inland Revenue offices across the country.

We urge all our clients to make use of these alternative payment methods as they are safe, convenient and fast,” Du Plessis encouraged.

An der Atlantikküste,in der Namibwüste Das ehemalige Atlanta-Theater Strandwege eine Freude!

Swakopmund (sk) Es wird weder in Hulda Rautenbergs ,,Das alte Swakopmund” erwähnt, noch hat es seinen Weg in Conny von Dewitz’ ,,Kleiner Stadtführer von Swakopmund” gefunden.

Das Atlanta-Theater befand sich in der ehemaligen Roonstraße (heute Hendrik-Witbooi-Straße), gegenüber vom Hansa-Hotel, wo man heute das Bekleidungsgeschäft Edgars betritt.

Georg Erb, Betreiber der Swakopmund Tour Company, platzierte dieses Foto auf eine Facebook-Seite namens Swakopmund Down Memory Lane.

Man erinnert sich an die gute, alte Zeit des Filmeschauens im geräumigen AtlantaTheaters.

Jörg Goldbeck: Das hat doch auch mal den Langs gehört?!?! Wir waren sehr viel dort.

Sehr schönes Kino mit quasi Sofasitzen und ganz viel Platz!

Hartmut Wenk: Viele Filme mit deutscher Nachrichtenvorschau!

Swakopmund (sk) Vor einiger Zeit erschien auf diesen Seiten die Beschwerde einer Leserin wegen der bröckelig gewordenen Strandwege.

Hier nun eine erfreuliche Nachricht von derselben Leserin: ,,Um ein wenig aufzutanken, laufe ich neulich den schönen Strandweg entlang und traue meinen Augen nicht. Die zwei

Nostalgie pur: das ehemalige Atlanta-Theater, wo die Filmwelt einen den grauen Alltag vergessen ließ. woch (und Freitag?) abends und an Samstagen gezeigt. Vor allem im Winter hat man in Swakopmund nach Arbeitsschluss keinen Menschen auf den Straßen gesehen. Mittwochsabend war die halbe Stadt im Kino.!

Sybille Gregory: In der Erinnerung schien das Kinogebäude so viel größer.

Georg Erb: Das Gebäude wurde wohl so 1995/96 demoliert.

Karin Somerville: 2.5 Cents kostete die Kinokarte, und weitere 2,5 Cents das Eiscreme.

Horst Meyer: Ich erinnere mich daran, dass Bud Spencer live dort auftauchte - bei dem Film mit den DünenBuggies, und wir trafen somit einen echten Schauspieler.... Dann ist unsere gesamte Klasse einmal hingegangen, um sich die deutsche Kinoversion ,,Das Boot” anzuschauen.

Patricia Clark: ich kann mich gut an das Kino erinnern. Filme gab es jeden Mittwoch und Samstag abend zu sehen. Wir sind immer hingegangen. Unsere Sitzplätze waren permanent gebucht. 1958 hatten Rahns ein Res-

taurant gleich nebenan, wo wir dann während der Pause Kaffee tranken oder einen Drink einnahmen.

Gudrun MacDonald: Eduard und Erika Rahn betrieben ein Restaurant im Atlantagebäude gleich neben dem Kino. Später wurde es von Willi Bönnen und seiner Frau Edith übernommen.

Patricia Clark: Rahns hatten eine Pension Rahn ganz in der Nähe, wo sich heute Erich’s Restaurant befindet.

Wolf-Dieter Mylo: War Familie Hertzig nicht auch mal am Kino beteiligt ?

Gudrun MacDonald: Ja, sie pachteten es von Familie Heuschneider, soviel ich weiss: Alfons und Lotti Herzig, früher Eigentümer des Swakopmund Meat Supplies in der ehemaligen Garnisonstraße.

Als sie die Schlachterei an Siegfried Bogendörfer verkauften, übernahmen sie das Atlanta -Theater.

Gudrun MacDonald: In den 50ern bis 70ern gehörte das Kino der Familie Heuschneider.

Paul Heuschneider (einer der zwei Brüder, die die Hansa-Brauerei besaßen) war der Kinomeister, der die Fil-

me gemeinsam mit Hans Kriess vorführte.

Später übernahm das ein Herr Buchholz. Die Dame beim Kartenverkauf war jahrelang Lieschen Pätzold. Ich glaube, sie arbeitete im Platten- bzw. Musikladen von Hans Kriess senior. Sie war die Mutter von Hoffi Hoffmann, der noch in Swakopmund lebt, soweit ich informiert bin.

Wann es gebaut wurde, weiss ich nicht genau, es muss so in den 40ern gewesen sein...

Andreas Becker: Ich habe oft oben in der Box mit meinem Pelli Buller Heuschneider frei Film getscheckt.

Haben dabei immer viele Zigaretten gequalmt, sodass der ganze Saal blau war.

Marianna BrandtWhitenburgh: Ich erinnere mich noch an die Matineevorstellungen und meinen ersten Film dort: Blue Hawaii von Elvis Presley.

Piet Sass: Als ich so zehn Jahre alt war, bezahlte man 10c für eine Vorstellung am Samstag Mittag, und abends kosteten die zwei vordersten Reihe 50c und die anderen 65c. Das war so 1969.

Peter John Louw: Eine Laubscher -Familie aus Grootfontein besaß das Kino auch mal für eine Weile nach Hertzig, glaube ich. Und ich erinnere mich an das Eiscreme von Peter’s Steakhouse, das Boris Erlank uns servierte.

Die Anwohner werden sich ja wundern, warum das plötzlich möglich war und ich vertraue, dass der Rest, der moniert wurde, auch noch erledigt wird. Also, das hat mein Herz direkt erfreut, dass ich wohl den richtigen Nerv oder

Leserbrief: Fernsehlizenz bezahlen - oder nicht?

Bitte nicht vergessen: TV-Lizenz bezahlen!

TV-Lizenz...wenn ich das im Augenblick höre, geht mir der Hut hoch. Macht man das Radio an, wird man sogleich daran erinnert, die TV-Lizenz zu bezahlen - und das schon seit Monaten. Natürlich wollte ich das auch sofort erledigen.

Also, auf zum NBCBüro, das es ja in Swakopmund gibt.

Dort schien mir viel Betrieb zu sein: drei Personen unterhielten sich, eine am Telefon und eine weitere am Handy. Also wartete ich. Nach etwa zehn Minuten fragte mich eine Dame, von der ich dachte, dass sie auch eine Kundin sei, was ich wünschte. Die Bitte, meine TV-Lizenz zahlen zu dürfen, wurde mit der Begründung abgeschlagen, sie hätten jetzt keine Zeit dafür. Kann ja passieren!

Nach drei Wochen tauchte ich wieder dort auf, und das Gleiche begann von vorne. Die gleichen Personen, die gleiche Begründung, warum ich meine Lizenz nicht zahlen kann.

Bei meinem dritten Besuch im NBC-Büro fragte ich vorsichtig nach, ob es denn überhaupt möglich sei, seine Fernsehlizenz hier zu bezahlen. Das

wurde sofort bestätigt.

Also streckte ich das Geld in meiner Hand entgegen, woraufhin mir mit Bedauern mitgeteilt wurde, dass die Dame, die das Geld einkassiert, leider nicht da sei. Ich solle doch zur Post gehen und dort zahlen.

Leider war die Post dermaßen überfüllt, dass sie eigentlich wegen Platzmangels hätte geschlossen werden müssen. Also wieder nichts....

Als nächstes schickte ich dann einen Angestellten bei meiner Arbeitsstelle los, um sein Glück zu versuchen.

Leider kam er wieder

mit meinem Geld zurück, weil man ihm gesagt hätte, man bräuchte meine IDNummer. Also schickte ich ihn am nächsten Tag mit ID-Nummer los.

Ob Sie es nun glauben oder nicht, aber ich bekam erneut mein Geld zurück - diesmal lautete der Grund, dass ich zwei Fernseher bezahlen müsse, obwohl ich unseren alten Fernseher bereits im vergangenen Jahr abgemeldet hatte.

Tja, anscheinend wollen die mein Geld nicht. Warum aber wird so viel Werbung gemacht, wenn eh keine Bezahlung akzeptiert wird?

Natürlich kann man auch zur Post gehen und warten, bis man endlich an der Reihe ist, um dann ENDLICH zahlen zu können. Wozu aber, das frage ich mich, haben wir ein NBC-Büro, das dann eh nicht genutzt wird?

Die Reise ins Inland-SPA geschieht ohne GPS, ohne Wet-

Ob die Monokofrau allerdings noch heute existiert, ist fraglich?

Modder oder Schlamm ist eben - genau wie Schnee - keine allzu solide Substanz. Übrigens haben wir als Kinder immer von Monoko gesprochen, wenn wir Schlick oder Lehm meinten. Haben Sie eine Ahnung, wo das Wort herkommt?

TOYOTA SA BORG DAKAR-UITDAGING IN 2017-WOESTYNREN Toyota SA Motors het sy steun vir die vierde ronde van die 2017-Dakar-Uitdaging, deel van die Toyota-KalahariBotswana-1 000Woestynren, aangekondig. Hierdie ikoniese ren is die derde ronde van die Suid-Afrikaanse Ve l d t y d r e n r e e k s (SACCS), en sal van 23 tot 25 Junie 2017 in die omgewing van die myndorp Jwaneng beslis word.

Die Dakar-Uitdaging is 'n jaarlikse reeks wat uit verskillende veldtydrenne regoor die wêreld bestaan. Die wenner van elke ronde van die uitdaging word genooi om aan die 2018-Dakarbyeenkoms deel te neem en hul beloning is dat hulle nie die inskrywingsgeld hoef te betaal nie.

Vanjaar se DakarUitdaging behels vyf rondes, waarvan drie vir motorfietse en twee vir motors

is. Toyota se borgskap van die DakarUitdaging as deel van die Woestynren open die deur vir plaaslike deelnemers om teen aansienlik minder koste aan die Dakar-veldtydren te gaan deelneem.

“Toyota SA Motors het ons Toyota Hilux nog van 2012 af met groot sukses in die Dakar-byeenkoms aangevoer. Ons het dus 'n noue verbintenis met dié ren en ons borgskap van die Dakar-Uitdaging is 'n manier om iets aan die plaaslike veldtydrengemeens kap terug te gee,” sê Glenn Crompton, Toyota SA Motors se visepresident vir bemarking. “Dit kan nie betwyfel word dat die ToyotaKalahari-Botswana1 000-Woestynren die kroonjuweel in die Suid-Afrikaanse Veldtydrenreeks is nie, en om die gesogte Dakar-Uitdaging by ons byeenkoms te voeg, is

uiters sinvol.”

Vanjaar se DakarUitdaging skop in die Sonora-veldtydren van 21 tot 23 Maart in Mexiko af, wat net vir motorfietse is. Die volgende ronde is die Indiese Baja van 7 tot 9 April – weer net vir die motorfietsbrigade. Die derde ronde is die Merzouga-veldtydren in Marokko, wat van 7 tot 13 Mei beslis word en die laaste geleentheid vir 'n talentvolle motorfietsjaer is om 'n gratis inskrywing in die Dakar-ren los te jaag.

Die eerste van die motorrondes is die Toyota-KalahariBotswana-1 000Woestynren wat van 23 tot 25 Junie beslis word. Die reeks eindig 'n maand later in die Baja Aragon in Spanje, wat van 21 tot 23 Julie beslis word.

“Dit is fantasties om 'n ronde van die Dakar-Uitdaging as

deel van die SuidAfrikaanse Veldtydrenreeks aan te bied,” sê Archie Rutherford, uitvoerende hoof van die SACCS. “Enige van ons nasionale deelnemers staan nou danksy Toyota se borgskap 'n kans om 'n gratis inskrywing in die Dakarren los te jaag 'n baie waardevolle prys.”

Toyota se eie jaers wat onder die vaandel van die Toyota Gazoo Racing SA-renspan deelneem, sal nie vir die Dakar-Uitdaging in aanmerking kom nie aangesien die uitdaging net vir private deelnemers is wat nog nie voorheen aan die Dakar-ren deelgeneem het nie.

Dit sal egter gewis nie dié uiters professionele span se motivering om die Woestynren te wen, demp nie.

“Giniel de Villiers sowel as Leeroy Poulter wag al opgewonde vir die begin

van die veldtydrenseisoen,” sê Glyn Hall, spanhoof v a n d i e To y o t a Gazoo Racing SArenspan. “Die eerste ronde, die Lichtenburg 400 op 31 Maart en 1 April, is oor net 'n paar weke, maar ons sien nou al uit na die Woestynren.”

Plaaslike aanhangers kan daarna uitsien om SuidAfrika se voormalige Dakar-wenner, Giniel de Villiers, in al ses rondes van vanjaar se SACC-reeks in aksie te sien. Hy deel die kajuit met die oudkampioennavigator Dennis M u r p h y. L e e r o y

Poulter en sy navigator, Rob Howie, is die verdedigende dubbele kampioene en sal groot teenstand vir hul spanmaats wees.

Mazda to Produce All-New CX-5 at Hofu Plant Mazda Motor Corporation announced that, starting from November 2017, it will produce the all-new Mazda CX-5 crossover SUV at Hofu Plant in Yamaguchi prefecture in addition to the Hiroshima Plant where it is currently produced. The move will help the automaker respond quickly and flexibly to growing demand for SUVs globally.

Mazda aims to create a production system that can respond flexibly to changes in demand for crossover vehicles as it works to meet its global sales goal of 1.65 million units, as laid out in its Structural Reform Stage 2 mediumterm business plan (covering the

period from fiscal year ending (FYE) March 2017 through FYE March 2019). In December 2016 Mazda began producing the Mazda CX-3 subcompact crossover SUV at Hofu plant in addition to Hiroshima Plant.

The All-New Mazda CX-5 will be launched in Southern Africa in the second quarter of 2017.

Starting production of the CX-5 at Hofu Plant as well is part of Mazda's plan to build a production framework that gives more flexibility between plants and between models.

Mazda will continue its efforts to enrich people's lives through a variety of touch points and become a brand with which customers feel a strong emotional connection.

We will miss you along life's way, quietly remember every day…..

No longer in our life you share, but in our hearts, you're alwayse there.

Traurig, aber mit schönen Erinnerung nehmen wir Abschied von meiner lieben Frau und unserer Mutter

Ganz still und leise, ohne ein Wort, gingst Du von Deinen Lieben fort.

Du hast ein gutes Herz besessen, nun ruht es still, doch unvergessen.

Ein Engel kam und sprach: Du sollst nicht länger leiden, lass einfach los und lass Dich treiben.

Ich breite meine Flügel aus.

Gemeinsam fliegen wir nach Haus.

The 400m Athletic Legend

Sharoldine Bock

Francis Uatema is another example to prove through hard work, determination and a positive attitude dreams become a reality. His journey started in 2010 when a teacher forced him to participate in the 400m athletics . It reached a high point in Jamaica in 2015.

Francis Uatema was born on 5 February 1996 at Otavi and moved to Walvis Bay, Narraville in 2002 to attend his first grade at Narraville Primary school.

At school in athletics he won gold in 100m and 200m. During his first year at De Duine Secondary School, “strict” Mr Bester, a former teacher at the school, forced him to participate in the 400m athletics.

Bester saw his potential and believed the young sprinter would excel in the 400m. After some time he decided to run and won the gold.

From that day onwards Uatema's athletic career changed dramatically. So much so that since that very day up to his matric year he consecutively won gold in the 400m.

But Uatema did not stop there: in December 2014 he traveled to Bulawayo in Zimbabwe for the Zone 6 Championship and came 4th in the finals.

Also in 2014, he won the title as Namibia's fastest Junior in the 400m. He achieved a personal best (Pb) of 47.3secs.

This opened the door for a Government scholarship to study in Jamaica.

There he was exposed to World- and Olympic champions. To mention a few: Shelly-Ann Fraser Pryce, Elaine Thompson and Nesta Carter.

For several years Uatema had to walk everyday to attend athletics practice at Walvis Bay Private High School.

“One thing that kept me going was to become something or someone in life”, says Uatema.

He received intensive training from coach Belinda Oberholster whom he regards as his second mother. Oberholster’s unconditional support throughout and her realising his talent will always be part of his life.

In 2015, he won both Grand Prix's in Windhoek and Swakopmund. According to him this was his toughest races, especially the one in Windhoek during the Senior Nationals in April where he had to compete against the “speedy” Ernst Narib who was the defending 400m National Champion.

“We were two athletes striving for the 400m title. It was an intense challenge, but luckily I managed to pull through”, says Uatema.

During his stay in Jamaica in 2015 he was trained by Jamaican legendary coach, Stephen Francis whom according to Uatema is the best.

Francis is known for

making athletes from “zero to hero” Olympic stars.

It is not all coaches who can do this.

In 2016 he traveled to the United States of Americato represent Namibia in the relay event for 200m along with Adiel, Hitch and Gilbert. Competing in one team they managed to break the Namibian record for the 200m relay.

During July Uatema had to return to Namibia, after encountering funding difficulties from the Government. Jamaica was also “not his thing”. He added though his opportunity in Jamaica was an experience of a lifetime, especially training amongst world star athletes & world class coaching staff.

This year he wishes to focus more on his education while taking a break from sports. In 2018 he will be back in full swing, when he plans to practice at the High Performance Center in South Africa during holidays, to prepare himself.

He wants to qualify for the Common Wealth Games in April 2018.

A wisdom from Uatema is success is 2% practice and 98 % is mental preparedness. “Your mind determines the outcome.

You can practice intensive, but if you do not have the right mindset [accompanied by faith] you will not achieve success'.”

During his training he does different types of sprints and tries to incorporate the same speed in all of them.

Uatema is inspired by people who faced difficulty, but managed to raise above the challenges. He gave as examples: Cristiano Ronaldo and Sylvester Stallone.

Uatema's daily routine includes speed & endurance workouts, strength exercises, studying and 15-20% he dedicates to his social life.

He is most thankful to his mother, since she always went out of her way to provide him with whatever he needed.

“Everything is possible when you work towards your goals. Hard work and discipline is a very important key towards reaching your goals. I went for training daily because I believed good would come of it and that's exactly how it turned out.

I came from “nothing”, started very small and if I can, then I believe everyone else who has equal determination can also achieve that”, concluded Uatema.
