“I FEEL like Australia gave me a chance, gave me an opportunity to become someone.” Springvale’s Richard Lim fled Cambodia 34 years ago and has since worked tirelessly to help people in need. “I feel very fortunate to come to this country. I cherish every moment of my time,” he said. “I feel like I have to help these unfortunate people, not just locally but internationally as well.” He was today awarded a Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM) for service to the community through a range of social welfare organisations in the Queen’s Birthday Honours List. Dandenong identities Carma Keast and Margo Hartley were also among 354 OAM recipients across the country. “I’d just come back from Cambodia for a conference. I opened the mail and what a surprise!” he said. The conference held late last month was designed to improve the Cambodian pharmacy system. “I think I contributed something to my country,” he said. It was also the first time Mr Lim had taken a good look around his former homeland since escaping to Australia in 1980. “I’m like a stranger after nearly 40 years. It looks different. You could not recognise it,” he said. “I felt very emotional.”

Mr Lim’s family had been all but wiped out when he fled Cambodia after enduring years of torture and starvation in refugee camps. He’d studied pharmacology in Cambodia for two years but had to start from scratch in his new home, with his high school certificate. For two years he attended high school classes from 8.30am to 3.30pm and worked from 4pm to 12.30pm to support himself, his brother and sister. He went on to pharmacy school and in 1991 opened Lim’s Pharmacy in Springvale. “All my customers are like my family,” he said. In April last year his pharmacy took out the Pharmacy of the Year award and the community engagement category in the national Quality Care Pharmacy Program awards. He celebrated the award win with a charity concert to thank the community and raised $40,000 for Cambodia Vision. Last year Mr Lim also supported a Save Cambodian Children Fund project to build a school in Cambodia’s west, between two villages. It opened in January and means students no longer have to trek 30 kilometres to learn. “We need to raise money to pay to the school teacher now,” he said. Mr Lim is the Cambodian Association of Victoria vice-

Jailed for child porn By CAMERON LUCADOU-WELLS A MAN has been jailed after being discovered with more than 600 downloaded child-pornographic images and videos of children as young as two years. Neil Bouchacra, 39, pleaded guilty at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on Monday to knowingly possessing the material on four hard drives in his bedroom at his parents’ Greater Dandenong home. The 599 images and four videos included category four and category five material - the two highest legal ratings for explicitness. Police seized Bouchacra’s computers and hard drives during a search warrant about 6.15am on 5 September 2012.

According to a police summary, Bouchacra told police he had downloaded material since his twenties. His reason for possessing the pornography was the “thrill out of it”, the summary stated. Magistrate Jack Vandersteen noted Bouchacra, who had no prior convictions or subsequent offences, had been assessed by a psychologist as having “minimal” chance of reoffending. The accused had not had a relationship with a woman, had lived at his parents’ home most of his life and had an intelligence rating in the bottom six per cent of the population. Defence barrister John Selimi argued Bouchacra should not serve a jail term.

“The interests of the community would be served by having a regime in place for his rehabilitation and treatment (outside prison). “It wouldn’t be in the interests of the community to place him from his isolated existence at the moment into the prison system ... mixing with God-knows-who and aggravating his condition,” barrister Selimi said. Mr Vandersteen noted mitigating factors such as Bouchacra’s guilty plea, his prospects of rehabilitation, his family and friends’ ongoing support, his “considerable” remorse, and his co-operation with police. He said those factors didn’t outweigh the need to “denounce, punish - and protect the community from people possessing that material”.

“In seeking child pornography, you’re the end user. This creates a demand. Without that demand, there is no supply.” He said the “heinous” images depicted the “systematic exploitation of children”. “Due to their age (children) are extremely vulnerable to adults. “How on Earth does a two-yearold protect themselves?” Bouchacra was jailed for 60 days and will report to police under the Sex Offenders Registry for the next 15 years. On release from jail, he will be on a supervised community corrections order for 18 months, including 200 hours of unpaid work in the first 12 months.

Works cause mains leak By Casey Neill

Kids take charge of school THREE students dispensed with their uniforms and made themselves at home in the boss’s chair at St Mary’s School, Dandenong, on Wednesday. Raul Spink, Summer Sinclair and Mariel Garcia had successfully

pitched for the right, winning an intraschool ‘persuasive writing’ competition to become ‘principal for a day’. They tasted life at the top: a special assembly, flag-raising and lots of meetings.

Erstwhile principal Greg White, who was shadowed by the trio that day, said the Principals Australia Institute national event was about helping students hone their leadership skills.

A BACKHOE ruptured a high-pressure gas main at the Springvale Railway Station building site on Wednesday. Emergency crews closed Lightwood Road for several hours and evacuated about 40 people from the surrounding area shortly after 10am on 4 June. Crews from the Noble Park, Dandenong and Springvale fire brigades and the Dandenong Hazmat Detection Unit and Hallam Heavy Hazmat team attended the incident, near Warwick Avenue. Crews monitored the air and switched off the power in many nearby buildings as a precautionary measure. The gas company worked to repair the gas main and reinstated power. The CFA issued an advisory message about 11am, advising people to shelter in place, close windows and doors and turn off heating and cooling vents. The authority issued the all-clear for the incident about 12.20pm.

Helping those who helped us I WAS shocked to read in a Journal article in April that in Papua New Guinea one in 12 children die before their fifth birthday. Those who do survive, face a daily battle to receive what many children in Australia take for granted - clean water, shelter, adequate nutrition and education. Trek 4 Education, which was founded by Keysborough couple Mark and Julie Capper, raises money for school supplies, which are distributed to children along the Kokoda Track. Many of the children are the direct descendents of the Fuzzy Wuzzy Angels who provided Australian troops with care and support during World War II. The Cappers are preparing to lead a trek along the track in September. It will be the third time Mark has completed the arduous journey. Last month the couple held a fund-raising event at the Dandenong RSL. A highlight was the presence of Kokoda Track veteran Jack Duffy and his wife Edna.

MY VOICE A MOMENT WITH

MARG STORK Guest speaker Alan Jameson, vice-president of the 39th Battalion Association, talked about the role the Fuzzy Wuzzy Angels played in assisting Aussie troops and interviewed Jack about his memories of the track during wartime. Mark said the people of the Kokoda Track had touched their hearts. “Their friendly smiles and wonderful hospitality during our treks have been one of the many highlights. Anyone who treks the Kokoda area will soon appreciate what these people did for our Diggers during WW II,” he says on the Trek 4 Education website.

The couple welcome help from any source in their trekking endeavours. They ask people to pass on the word, donate or join them on their inaugural trek. Julie and Mark show that with drive, passion and determination it is possible to make a difference. I wish them all the best for their trek, and I am sure the delight on the faces of chidren as they receive such simple items as pens, rulers and pencils will be more than ample reward.

World War II veteran Jack Duffy, his wife Edna and Dandenong-Cranbourne RSL president John Wells.

Girl Power The next South East Business Network Showcasing Women in Business breakfast on 13 June will feature fascinating guest speaker Diana Patterson. Diana was the first woman in the world to lead an Antarctic research station. Her presentation will cover the barriers she overcame to achieve her ambition, the challenges she faced in working in such a hostile environment and her experience

running a boarding house for orphans in a remote village in the Kalahari. There are so many wonderful women in the City of Greater Dandenong achieving great things. The SEBN breakfasts are a great opportunity for women to network and learn about leadership, ambition and empowerment from diverse guest speakers.

Probe into falling glass By CAMERON LUCADOU-WELLS THE Victorian Workcover Authority is making inquiries into an incident that saw glass fall from a bank of windows above Dandenong Oasis’s main pool. The glass panel was dislodged on 9 February - a day of near 40ºC temperatures and strong winds. The falling glass was captured intact by a safety net above the 50-metre pool which is frequently used by competitive and recreational swimmers. Greater Dandenong councillor John Kelly, who sits on the council’s aquatic facilities advisory group, said the net was designed to protect the windows from balls thrown in the pool rather than “the other way round”.

“We do audits all the time but sometimes something slips through the net, you could say. “I think it was an unfortunate accident. Thankfully, no-one was hurt - I’m not sure there were people in the pool at the time.” Cr Kelly said the 36-year-old building, which had become a “money drain for maintenance”, would be refurbished under the council’s long-term strategy. He said the council didn’t want a repeat of the “tragic” wall collapse at the pool in 1988. The City of Dandenong and its then chief engineer were prosecuted over that incident in which a 1.5-metre brick retaining wall at the pool collapsed during a school

swimming carnival. Some 30 children from St John’s Regional College were injured; 13-year-old Danielle Di Toro suffered spinal injuries and became a paraplegic. She has since become world number one in wheelchair tennis, representing Australia at the 2012 Paralympics. Chief executive John Bennie said after February’s glass fall, part of the pool was closed as a precaution until the panel was removed later that day - though there was “no immediate risk to patrons”. He said the council would increase the frequency of its bi-yearly inspection of the panels. The “most recent” inspection found the panels were in “good con-

dition”, Mr Bennie said. “Since the incident, visual and structural assessments of the panels have been undertaken, and there is no indication that any other windows could fall. “While no problems have been found, (the) council is committed to providing safe facilities and will remove and disassemble some of the windows to see if there are hidden issues,” he said. A spokeswoman for the Victorian WorkCover Authority said the authority “has been notified of the incident and is making inquiries”. Belgravia Leisure, which manages Dandenong Oasis on behalf of the council, did not return calls before deadline.

Showcase puts disabled ability on display A POP-UP shop at Dandenong Plaza is showcasing what people with disabilities can do. The Wallara shop will stock products its service users make, promote the Dandenong-based organisation’s support services, events and activities, and educate the community about disability. It will also provide a community site where service users can train in a ‘live’ environment, with potential for permanent employment. The Wallara Pop-Up Shop’s doors are now open, 10am to 2pm Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays at shop 268 on the plaza’s middle level. Manager Mark Tannahill said plaza operator GPT’s community mission focused on social inclusion,

healthy living and employability. “By supporting Wallara, we are delighted to develop a relationship with a community group who lives this mission on a daily basis and has done so in the Dandenong and surrounding region for over 50 years,” he said. Wallara is also seeking support for its WallaraTV initiative. An inhouse video team produces short films about some of the unique people Wallara supports. There are now more than 60 videos on YouTube, and Channel 31 airs a 30-minute program each month. “We believe these stories matter, and by sharing them we can change the way people think about disability,” Wallara chief executive Phil Hayes-Brown said.

Giving is in her nature By CASEY NEILL GIVING to the Dandenong community has always come naturally to Margo Hartley. The Endeavour Hills resident was today awarded a Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM) for service to the community of Dandenong, and to youth through the Scouting movement in the Queen’s Birthday Honours List. “There are so many people so much more worthy than me,” she said. “It’s unbelievable. I’m just humbled by it. “With everything I’ve done I’ve just had so many wonderful people backing me. I could never have done these things on my own.” Mrs Hartley moved to Dandenong when she was 12 years old. “In those days my family was struggling,” she said. “I think it’s a natural thing for me, when I could, to be able to give back. “My family’s always had a heart for the people of Dandenong.” She’s been a vestry member at St James’ Anglican Church in Dandenong for more than 25 years and has been attending its services for 50. “Reverend Michael Clarke was there when I started,” she said. “He took me under his wing and I’ve really grown and had wonderful times there. “I’m on the committee organising the church’s 150th birthday celebrations, which is a wonderful milestone.”

Mrs Hartley met her husband, Tom, through the church’s youth group, and started her 20-year service to the Scouting movement when a vicar asked her to be a 9th Dandenong St James Scouts Cub leader at age 17. “I was a very shy girl. I suppose it was one of the most important things that happened in my beginnings,” she said. “I was blown away. That was a lovely moment for me to think that I was worthy to be asked.” She was a Cub leader there for many years until joining Mr Hartley at the 7th Doveton group, and helping to establish a Hallam group where sons Todd and Mark attended. She was an assistant area commissioner and received a Medal of Merit for Outstanding Service to the Scouting movement in 1982. “We had a lovely group of leaders which were really family. We did everything together,” she said. Mrs Hartley was working on a fund-raiser for Dandenong Hospital in 2007 when she encountered a friend who was about to board a Mercy Ships vessel. “It’s a hospital ship that brings hope and healing to the forgotten poor in West Africa,” she said. “While she was away she emailed me and told me these amazing stories.” She invited her to speak at the hospital fund-raiser. “People were just dabbing their eyes while she was showing us slides and telling her stories,” she said. They’d hoped to raise $35,000 from the evening but raked in

$70,000, and gave half to Mercy Ships. The Hartleys have since supported fund-raising, become guest speakers and been on a Mercy Ships trip to Benin, West Africa. “It’s really a community - the 240 people on board, they’re all volunteers, all pay their own fare for each week to be part of this precious ministry mission,” she said. “On this ship you actually see the lame walk and the blind see before your eyes.” Mrs Hartley opened care and empowerment centre Brand New Day in November last year - a charity 10 years in the making. “I was really saddened to see and hear of the number of desperate and destitute families and single mums and dads struggling and not knowing what to do next,” she said. “Many had lost their confidence and had no-one to turn to for help and never seemed to get a lucky break.” She restored a 1920s home in Foster Street East and opened it as a safe haven to enjoy activities, learn new skills and meet new friends. Participants in the centre’s first cooking classes last week received their completion certificates. “Some of those refugees their lives are just so, so sad. For them to be receiving this certificate, you would have thought they’d won a million dollars,” she said. “To see the joy on their faces that’s what you do it for.”

AN abandoned and vandalised Noble Park school could be flattened within weeks, but its future remains unclear. A spokeswoman for Education Minister Martin Dixon last week told the Journal a demolition contractor should be engaged before the end of June, and work at the former Southvale Primary School would start soon after. This followed Lyndhurst MP Martin Pakula raising the matter in Parliament on 27 May, after first questioning Mr Dixon about it two months ago.

Her voluntary service has included 40-plus year stints at arranging flowers in the church every Sunday, the regular upkeep of the church grounds and tennis courts, and serving at Dandenong hospital’s kiosk. At the church, she has been a long-serving elder, member of its council and pastoral care program - as well as regularly getting behind fund-raisers for the church, Legacy and Cancer Council. She still keeps active in the church, presiding over the evening fellowship group since the 1970s. She was one of the group’s founding members in 1952.

A stroke last year robbed her of her driving licence. Missing the once-regular trips to visit friends, she has vowed to reapply for her licence soon. She said her peerless community work ethic came from her parents - who taught her “to be honest and to help people”. Just over 50 years ago, her mother, father and sister died in the space of 12 months. She and her late husband Roy took in her sister’s two children, adding to three of their own. “It’s been a wonderful family,” she says. She said Roy would be proud of her latest crowning recognition; her family and friends “over the moon”. “Thank you Australia!”

“It is a pigsty, it is a health hazard and it is attracting all the wrong elements to what is otherwise a quiet suburban area,” he said. Glenda Green’s home backs onto the Athol Road site, which since closing in 2012 has become a magnet for drug use, fires, graffiti, smashed windows, broken furniture and rubbish. Ms Green welcomed the news. “Anything would be better than what you see now,” she said. “It’s creating a place where people can go. There are sy-

ringes over there. “There won’t be anywhere for them to hide. “I think it would be wonderful if it could be turned into a park,” she said. The site has been declared surplus to Education Department requirements. “Government requirements state that the department must first offer the property to other government departments, then to the local council, and then to the public,” Mr Dixon’s spokeswoman said. She refused to confirm where the site was in the process.

FACTORY D IRECT

By CAMERON LUCADOU-WELLS

IT could be a case of Carma by name, good karma by nature for community-minded 89-yearold Carma Keast. Mrs Keast, of Dandenong, felt “blessed” to be listed as an Order of Australia Medal recipient for her services to Dandenong’s community and Trinity Uniting Church for more than 40 years. Known for her ready smile, she believes in and acts out of a deep-seated goodwill to her neighbours. Giving seems “natural”, the former winner of Greater Dandenong’s Good Neighbour Award said. “Smiles make such a difference to make a better world for everyone,” she said. “I try to smile a lot. Since I’ve been walking around a lot recently, it’s surprising how many stop and smile or say hello.” She’s nervous about the inevitable spotlight on her after this week’s announcement. “From my humble beginnings, I never thought I’d get such an award. “I’ve always thought I’d received help from the Lord above for trying to make the world a better place.” That help includes her robust long-term health. Up until four years ago, she had played bowls. She had struck tennis balls as well as long served as secretary at Trinity Uniting Tennis Club, up un-

IT’S NONE OF OUR BUSINESS BUT… PERHAPS someone thought he was in danger - or a little chilly in the wintry weather. The Journal last week spotted a high-visibility work shirt placed on the bicycle path sculpture on Heatherton Road, Dandenong. The cut-out man on a bicycle was definitely easier to spot in the fluorescent yellow-sleeved top, though a coat might have been a better choice this time of year.  CERTIORARI is an important legal term, but a slippery one to pronounce ... as a tonguetied judge at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court found. “I couldn’t pronounce it at law school, I can’t pronounce it now,” the magistrate said after several aborted at-

tempts. “I’ll spell it out.” A helpful barrister bellowed the correct pronunciuation from the gallery in his best rolling Latin, eliciting a slightly chastened nod from the bench.  HERE is one way to find out who your real friends are. A remand prisoner at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court had summoned glowing references from several associates but none of them were prepared to provide surety for his release on bail. “Isn’t it interesting all these character referees say he’s a great bloke, then when they have to ‘put your money where your mouth is’ ... they won’t,” mused the magistrate. “It looks like you’re on

your own.”

 IF IT’S too good to be true, it is as the saying goes. The victim of a scam, who works in the Sandown area, paid $250 upfront for a Samsung Galaxy S4 mobile on a wellknown classifieds website. Since then the Sydney ‘seller’ has failed to show. Now she knows the tell-tale signs of a scam: telling a sob story (he said he had lost money to a scam car-seller) and urging up-front payment (he said he needed the money before flying to Melbourne to hand her the phone). Since then, the vendor has contacted the victim “hundreds of times” with excuses including the old chestnut the parcel is in the mail.

Ombudsman’s eye on lines BY CAMERON LUCADOU-WELLS THE state’s energy ombudsman is investigating resident complaints over high-voltage overhead powerlines being installed without warning outside their homes in Keysborough. Residents along a 300-metre section of Cheltenham Road’s northern side, east of Corrigan Road, had been accustomed to powerlines being buried outside their homes. For some, it was a key attraction to living in the area. They say without warning, works had started to install 66,000-volt overhead lines within metres of their homes. United Energy has been petitioned by 30 residents to halt the works, which are part of a project to upgrade power supplies for Keysborough’s new

housing and industrial estates. Last month, Lyndhurst MP Martin Pakula wrote to the Energy and Water Ombudsman Victoria asking her to “investigate as a matter of urgency”. A spokesman for the ombudsman said the matter had been “escalated” to an investigation, with the agreement of United Energy. Resident Elizabeth Domanski was hopeful, though not assured of a favourable outcome. “I think the next generation will be writing about highvoltage powerlines in the same way as asbestos is written about now.” She was surprised that there were no meaningful legal buffers between homes and highvoltage powerlines. A spokesman for the Australian Radiation Protection and

Nuclear Safety Agency said buffer zones - 2.5 metres in Victoria - existed mainly so that the energy companies could have access to the lines for upgrades and repairs. He said there was “no established evidence” that living near high voltage powerlines was a health hazard. “On balance, the evidence related to childhood leukaemia is not strong enough to justify undue concern,” the ARPANSA spokesman said. “However people should be aware of the issue in order to make informed decisions.” The powerpole works also caused disruption to internet services in the Keysborough area, affecting them for three days.

GREATER Dandenong’s engineering services director Bruce Rendall has resigned, accepting a director’s role at Mornington Peninsula Council. Mr Rendall oversaw momentous projects such as the Dandenong municipal building complex and the Dandenong Market and Noble Park Aquatic Centre redevelopments. He will become Mornington Peninsula’s sustainable organisation director - a role that will give him necessary skills towards becoming a council CEO, Greater Dandenong chief executive John Bennie said. “The community can be assured that important projects which Bruce has driven, such as the ‘Great Bin Swap’, will not miss a beat with his resignation. “We will certainly miss Bruce but this is a time to celebrate his contributions and wish him well on this next phase of a promising career.”

Bruce Rendall, right, with Dandenong municipal building project manager Darren Rogers this year. 114550 Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS However, with the recent Mayor Jim Memeti paid tribute to Mr Rendall’s “signifi- opening of the transformacant impact” during his four- tive $65-million Dandenong library-civic centre complex, he year tenure as director. Last year, Mr Rendall faced leaves on a high note. Mr Rendall departs the stern criticism from councillors over a bungled footpath project council on 4 July. - Cameron Lucadou-Wells in Noble Park.

Soccer conflict boils over By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS DANDENONG Thunder associate Aldrin De Zilva had been embroiled in boardroom conflict with fellow Federation Football Victoria directors prior to being charged with misconduct at an underage soccer match last month. Mr De Zilva, team manager of the Thunder Under-13s, was charged with two counts of using offensive, insulting or abusive language or behaviour against a match official after the game. A tribunal hearing, scheduled late last month, has been adjourned and the club will fight the charges. On 23 May, a week after the charge was reported in the me-

dia, Mr De Zilva and another director ex-Socceroo Kimon Taliadoros resigned from the FFV board. In a joint statement they said they did not believe the federation’s financial statements were “true and fair”. Mr De Zilva, an accountant and lead partner of an international law firm, said the two directors had declared their concerns at the federation’s annual general meeting on 19 March. They had reported the issue to Consumer Affairs Victoria and the Australian Securities and Investment Commission. “Since September 2013, I have had - and continue to have - significant concerns in respect of the disclosures of the financial position by the FFV,” Mr

De Zilva said. He said he had continually shared those concerns with board members and former chief executive Mitchell Murphy, who resigned on 16 May. “Being heavily involved with football at the grassroots, I see at first-hand the underprivileged child who struggles to pay his or her registration fees. “It is important that the football community clearly understands what the governing body and those tasked with the responsibility of managing it are doing with their membership monies,” he said. Dandenong Thunder spokesman Cezar Jacupi told the Journal last month there had been a “trial by media” against Mr De Zilva.

By CASEY NEILL KEYSBOROUGH student Jake O’Donnell has put a unique spin on conception, using layered images of naked men. The artwork earned the Cranbourne North resident a place in this year’s TopArts exhibition, among 49 pieces selected from more than 3000 submissions from students across Victoria. He created Conception, a series of three works, while studying Studio Art in Year 11 at Haileybury last year. “It’s a contemporary biological take on the process of conception,” he said. “I’ve decided to take the idea of genesis from the Bible, where Adam is supposedly created in and of himself from the earth, and look at how concep-

tion might be if it’s a solely masculine process. “Everything is made using only a nude male body. “I got a nude male mode to curl up as sperm cell and egg cell.” Jake then manipulated the images and created transparent layers. “They look more like cells under a microscope,” he said. “It seems to be an abstract representation, but under closer inspection you can see the people. “The photoshoots themselves were time-consuming and difficult. “When I took the photos for those works, I had not been using artificial lightings. I had to find a skylight.” He created hundreds of images and used trial and error to

reach his finished product. “It’s actually really surreal. I definitely consider it a huge artistic triumph in terms of my practice,” he said. “It’s been an uplifting experience, receiving recognition for all the hard work I’ve done throughout the year. “It’s really handy as a feather in my cap when I apply for uni.” He hopes to study Fine Arts at the Victorian College of the Arts, but isn’t sure about his career path. “I’d like to be an amalgamation writer, practicing artist and photographer,” he said. StArt Up: Top Arts 2014 is on display at the National Gallery of Victoria Studio, Flinders Street, Federation Square, until 20 July.

Hands off the hookah By CAMERON LUCADOU-WELLS AN Afghan community leader has spoken out on a push to more tightly regulate shisha smoking inside public venues. Khaliq Fazal, president of the Dandenong-based Afghan Australian Association of Victoria, said it was the “people’s choice” to publicly smoke from hookahs in specialised venues. “Those who are affected by smoke, don’t go into it. “I’m personally against smoking. It affects me and when I go to them with my family, I only stay for a short time. “But when it comes down to it - it socialises people. They sit down and have a coffee and dinner. I think it’s their choice.” He said shisha was a popular trend in Middle Eastern and Asian restaurants, hotels and lounges in Dubai, Melbourne and Greater Dandenong. “There are other restaurants that are smoke-free and people have the choice to go to those.”

Afghan Australian Association of Victoria president Khaliq Fazal says smoking hookahs in specialised venues should be up to individual choice. 121128 Picture: ROB CAREW Several Melbourne councils, including Greater Dandenong, and Quit Victoria have been lobbying for Victoria to stop being the only Australian state that makes exemptions for shisha and hookah tobacco to be

smoked in public indoor spaces. World Health Organisation estimates that a one-hour shisha session produced the same volume of inhaled smoke as between 100-200 cigarettes. Health Minister David Davis

said the government had progressively introduced further restrictions on tobacco smoking in public, including bans in children’s play areas and children’s sporting events. “As part of this series of

Machete attack

steps, the government is considering shisha smoking,” Mr Davis said. Dandenong shisha lounge owner Ali Jaan said drinking at nightclubs was more of a hazard than his serene venue. “In nightclubs, people get drunk, they get smashed, they get into fights and go to hospital. There aren’t too many restrictions on that.” He said there were no legal age restrictions on entering his lounge but his policy was to refuse entry to under-18s. Greater Dandenong councillor Matthew Kirwan, who has also moved for tighter restrictions, said it was a concern that the phenomenon was spreading and the State Government wasn’t taking action. “Thankfully (Mr Jaan’s lounge) is self-regulating (clearly indicating over 18 on their signage) however there is still the health risk of smoking in a confined space.

Roof runner couldn’t escape from ice use paranoia By CAMERON LUCADOU-WELLS A MAN has claimed he suffered paranoia, thinking he was being pursued during a two-hour drug-fuelled trek across home roofs and backyards in Dandenong. Li Gang Di, who pleaded guilty to using methylamphetamine and four counts of wilful trespass in Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on Monday, had claimed he set off from home

to buy cigarettes from a Dandenong supermarket about 3am on 24 June last year. From that time, he was observed climbing on several roofs and jumping backyard fences in Vizard Street and Heatherton Road. At 4am, he fled from police who spotted him on a house roof. Di was stopped and interviewed by police in Vizard Street about 5.30am, telling

them he had smoked overnight “maybe one to two points” of ice. Defence lawyer Bill Grimshaw said Di had derived “no benefit whatsoever” during his “bizarre, aimless” excursion. “His moral culpability is low because there was no purpose behind Mr Di’s offending.” He said Di had a “bad reaction” after trying smoking methylamphetamine for the first time that night, leading to paranoia.

“He believed someone was following him, which is why he was running on roofs of houses.” The court was told Di’s “lengthy” previous criminal history was linked to heroin addiction - a drug he claimed he hadn’t used for five years. Di had not touched methylamphetamine since that night, Mr Grimshaw said. Magistrate Jack Vandersteen noted Di was more than four kilometres away from the super-

market. “It’s way, way out of his way from where he lives - unless you do a big loop to go to the shops.” “It doesn’t make sense where you were.” Di, 39, was found in breach of a suspended jail sentence and imprisoned for one month. On his release, he’ll serve a 12-month community corrections order, including mental health and drug-dependency treatment.

A NOBLE Park man will answer charges over a machete attack in Springvale last weekend. Police were called to the Waltzing Matilda Hotel, corner Heatherton and Springvale roads, about 12.20am on Saturday 31 May. Greater Dandenong CIU Acting Detective Sergeant Luke Kirton said the victim, a 35-year-old Springvale South man, had been arguing with another man in the gaming area. The man left and returned with a large machete a short time later. “He attacked the victim, slashing at him numerous times, causing some deep lacerations,” Acting Det Sgt Kirton said. He said security staff intervened, grabbed the offender and tackled him to the ground. The victim was taken to Dandenong Hospital in a stable condition with cuts to his right upper arm and left hand. Police arrested and charged a 39-year-old man with intentionally causing injury, recklessly causing serious injury, assault with a weapon and possessing a weapon namely a machete. He was bailed to appear at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on 9 October.

Guides to diversity By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS MULTICULTURALISM has become something of a badge of honour for Girl Guides in Springvale. In a pilot program, the Guides have joined forces with Springvale Learning and Activities Centre to reach out to women and girls of diverse backgrounds, including migrants and refugees. Erin Wicking, Girl Guides Victoria community development manager, is at pains to point out that Guides is not a narrow culture but has been an international movement across 145 countries. “We have always been a multicultural organisation, always welcoming of girls of all backgrounds,” Ms Wicking says. “If anyone knows how to embrace diversity, it’s the Girl Guides.”

One example is the group’s multilingual webpage “Welcome to Girl Guides”, which can be translated into 10 languages. Springvale’s Guides units are set to double. Vacancies are open for a new unit for five to nine-yearolds opening in term three, which will complement the nine-15-year-olds unit. Ms Wicking says Springvale - because of its diversity - was chosen as the kick-off for pilot projects such as Guiding Leadership Opportunities for Women. Under the GLOW program, migrant and refugee women are taught lifeskills such as conversational English, computing, leadership and first aid, and are placed for work experience at Springvale’s two Girl Guide units.

At the end of the program, they earn Girl Guide leader and volunteer coordination qualifications. Ms Wicking says the skills learnt are transferrable for women wanting to re-enter the workforce or volunteer. Guides is a different group since it axed ‘brownies’ and ‘rangers’ in the mid-90s. Rather than working to a specific plan, the girls are ‘guided’ by their leaders to pursue their own interests. Along the way, the girls learn teamwork and organisational skills, Ms Wicking says. “Leaders help the girls learn things by themselves. The girls have a really active role in what they do,” she says.

A THIEF stole more than just dough from Baker’s Delight at Parkmore Shopping Centre last week. He entered the Keysborough complex between 5pm and 6.45pm on 22 May, and went into a rear room at the bakery. He stole an employee’s handbag and rode from the scene on a bicycle. Police have released images captured on CCTV of a man they’d like to speak to. He’s described as Caucasian and 25 to 35 years old, with a medium build. Call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 with any information.

Apartment owners slapped with $500,000 fire risk bill A NOBLE Park apartment building was placing lives at risk, the Victorian Building Authority has found. Property owners are facing a bill of almost $500,000 to fix the building’s problems, following a VBA building order in response to fire safety concerns. An inspection revealed the building did not have adequate fire safety measures such as portable fire extinguishers, suitable fire exit doors, a compliant fire hydrant system and sufficient

smoke detection and alarm systems. A developer constructed the threestorey residential building and individuals bought the 55 apartments, which are mostly occupied by international students from a nearby university. VBA compliance and performance director Murray Smith said nearly all buildings in Victoria, including houses, must meet fire safety requirements under the Building Regulations 2006. “The problems identified with the

building meant that there was a risk to life and safety for the occupants,” Mr Smith said. “To comply with the building order, the owners must arrange for work to be carried out and appropriate fire safety equipment and systems installed,” he said. Temporary safety measures are in place while the work is completed. “When the plans for the building were developed, there was little con-

sideration for fire safety,” Mr Smith said. “As a result, the owners are now fixing the problem, at a cost of almost $500,000. “The owners have been very cooperative throughout the process. “But it would have saved a lot of money and time for everyone involved if the developers had made sure the required safety measures were installed when the building was constructed.”

Mr Smith said this was a reminder about the importance of doing homework before purchasing a property. “If you are thinking of buying a house or a building, you should consider arranging a professional inspection to make sure it is safe and meets the building regulations before you buy,” he said. The building surveyor who issued the building’s occupancy permit is no longer registered.

Springvale Rise Primary School

By CAMERON LUCADOU-WELLS

Open Morning All Welcome Heights HeightsCampus Campus – 32-52 Wareham Street, Springvale Heights Campus Heights Campus June 14th – 10.00 – 1.00

Guided school tours, a variety of learning activities for your children–– –– and morning tea provided At Springvale Rise – we are committed to providing every child with a relevant, ant, engaging and personalised education. Our facilities are 21st Century Learning Centres where teaching is presented in ‘Point-of-Need’ workshops.

A VOLUNTEER crime-prevention patrol piloted in Dandenong is set to move into new pastures. Sergeant Joey Herrech, who heads Operation PYLET (Police and Young Leaders Engagement Team), said the program, which had run only in Dandenong for a year, would be shifted to Frankston in coming weeks. The state-first PYLET was highlighted in the ‘blue paper’ released by police last week, which pointed to a greater use of volunteers. In the PYLET team, police tour the municipality’s roughest spots on Friday nights with volunteer leaders from Maori, Samoan and Sudanese communities.

The friendly crew makes no arrests but reaches out to young people, hosing down trouble before it ignites. Sgt Herrech says PYLET was “a really good example” of how volunteers could complement the police force. On nights that PYLET hits the streets, police callouts are markedly reduced, he says. It helped connect young people with “the right people” who could help them get housing, jobs and education. “In its infancy, it was very difficult. We saw young people who had absolutely no respect for police and the judicial system,” Sgt Herrech says. “Now we’re seeing success story after success story. Their cultural group is embracing them again.” He said he was mindful not

to burn out his unpaid PYLET leaders. “Their pay is just the success of the program and for their young people. “The concept means the community takes ownership of problems. The big thing is the communities see what’s happening. They see the problems that the police face and may come up with a solution.” Sgt Herrech said there was a limited window for volunteers - “We don’t want to panic the public and say volunteers are going out to make arrests.” But PYLET showed that window could be large enough to make a difference. “Not everyone can be cut out to be a police officer but they can be excellent volunteers for supplementary and pro-active policing,” he said.

Shabnam, who had two passengers in his Honda Legend at the time, had his car towed away and impounded for 30 days on-the-spot. His charges included driving at a dangerous speed. On Monday, police prosecutor Cameron Smithett sought a further court-imposed impoundment of the car. Magistrate Julie O’Donnell said under state hoon laws, she had no discretion but to accede to the request.

An apologetic Shabnam had argued against the impoundment, saying he was under financial stress and had already paid $800 in impoundment and towing fees last year. He said he had been unable to sell his car to raise muchneeded funds since last year’s offence. Shabnam was also convicted, disqualified from driving for 12 months and fined $500. - Cam Lucadou-Wells

Every Gem Home is finished with the highest quality fittings, a feature of every Gem. However, the sparkling service starts well before the keys are handed over. Right from the outset, the Gem

With standard features including floating floorboards to all living areas, double garages and a walk-in pantry, there is something

Gem Homes is renowned for its flowing designs which allow seamless movement throughout the house. Ideal for families, each home makes ingenious use of available storage space to create hidden away areas to keep the linen and kids’ toys out of sight.

Building with Gem Homes gives the confidence that comes with experience and after three decades in the industry Carl Henczel ensures that every home he builds stands the test of time.

NEW HOMES & LAND

CHERRINGTON’S WARM WELCOME CHERRINGTON, the latest land release in the fast-growing Officer community, has been officially launched with a family fun day attracting good crowds to view this up and coming new area. Just 1.3km from Officer’s main street, Cherrington is being sold in four stages. Sales consultant Kassy Howard said it was certainly attracting a lot of interest from people in all stages of life. She said the family fun day, on May 18, proved a successful launch for the exciting project with more than 100 people coming along to enjoy the day and check out

Cherrington for themselves. “We had a petting zoo, ice-cream van, jumping castle and coffee making,” she said. “And all the children got a balloon to take home.” Kassy said so impressed were those coming along to view that six sales were made on the day in the new Cherrington site. While there were a lot of first home buyers and families on the day the event also attracted those who were already on the

property ladder, looking to either find a bigger space for a growing family or to downsize and it didn’t hurt that Cherrington was offering a discount on the purchase price. But Kassy said the big attraction was the family-friendly atmosphere at Cherrington which is open seven days a week from noon to 5pm at 320 Princes Highway Officer. “We are here to look after the individual and cater to their needs,” she said. Cherrington has unique land packages that suit buyers looking to build their new

home whether it be a first home, downsizing or a forever home for your expanding family with lots from 243 square metres to 620 square metres. There are currently 152 lots at Cherrington on offer right now with stage one titles releasing in September and stage two coming on line from November. For further information contact Kassy Howard, 0488 972 717 at Cherrington Estate, 320 Princes Highway, Officer, open 7 days, 12 noon – 5 pm, phone 5995 3223.

Police probe rubbish fire

China’s good books THE Chinese Government has boosted Greater Dandenong’s collection of Chinese books. People’s Republic of China Consul-General Yu Ming Song presented about 200 books to City of Greater Dandenong mayor Jim Memeti at Springvale Library last week. They cover topics including traditional literature, culture, history, art and science, and some have bilingual content. Greater Dandenong has about 8500 Chinese speaking residents and more than 2500 are library members. The municipality’s Chinese book section is one of the library’s most heavilyborrowed collections.

POLICE are appealing for witnesses to a wheelie bin fire in Noble Park. A Karan Court resident heard a number of large bangs about 10.30pm on 31 May and investigated to find a bin on fire at a neighbouring home. His attempts to extinguish the fire with a garden hose were unsuccessful. The CFA attended and brought the fire under control, containing the damage to the bin. No-one was home at the time, but police spoke to the owners and determined there was nothing flammable in the bin that could have combusted. They have deemed the fire’s cause suspicious and urged anyone with information to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Dr Linda Huang browses through the new books. 121212

Operation targets theft from cars A NEW police operation will target thefts from cars in Greater Dandenong. Detective Sergeant Shane Pola said the pro-active covert and overt patrols would target areas where there’d been an increase in the crime. “Members from Operations Response Unit (ORU) in town are coming out, and we’re having a pro-active high-visibility police presence in those areas,” he said. “The aim is to deter and to catch.” Det Sgt Pola said the police would work in and around shopping centres and railway stations, on deterrence and apprehension. “We’ll respond where there’s been indications that there’s activity,” he said. “It’s to get the message out to keep valuables out of sight.” He urged motorists to ensure their cars were secure, and anyone who saw suspicious behaviour around vehicles to call police or Crime Stoppers. 1138958-ACM24-14

THEY came, saw and chanted for visiting South Sudanese political figure Wani Tombe in Dandenong last Tuesday. Dr Tombe was feted with several standing ovations - as well as uplifting chants sung in full voice – as he spoke out for the removal of South Sudanese president Salva Kiir and his Dinka-tribe government at a 200-strong public meeting at St Mary’s School hall. Dr Tombe chairs political group Greater Equatoria Council of Rights (GRECOR), which backs rebels in a six-month violent conflict in South Sudan - the world’s youngest nation.

The United Nations estimates 1.3 million have left their homes and thousands have been killed since fighting in mid-December. There are reports of government military killing Neur-tribe civilians en masse in the city of Juba. Last week, the UN stated if the ceasefire didn’t hold, famine could ensue. Dr Tombe - who has recently toured Canada and the US - described the Juba killings as a “massive genocide” against Neur people. Many women, children and men - including “your loved ones and our loved ones” - had borne the brunt of the bloodshed, he said. He told of 20 headless babies being delivered to a hos-

pital. “This, my dear sisters and brothers, is a challenge to our humanity.” He called for reforming the country’s politics, judiciary and military, for a “democratic constitution” and a “government that does not butcher its own citizens”. “You and us (GRECOR) are going to stand together not against tribes but actions and intentions that undermine our humanity. “The best allies you can have are Equatorians. It is time we came together to design the kind of South Sudan that we believe in.” When he said the Equatorian and Neur nations would be allies for the next 500 years, the audience stood as one, chanting and dancing

rapturously for several minutes. The night was organised by the South Sudanese Community in Victoria. Member Changkouth Mangij told the Journal the night was an opportunity for people to get accurate information on the conflict; the South Sudanese government so tightly controlled its domestic media. Last week, UN SecretaryGeneral Ban Ki-moon urged an end to continued military fighting, which had violated two ceasefire agreements. “He stressed the need for both parties to abide by these agreements and end all military operations immediately,” a UN spokesman said.

Man punched, kicked, robbed in laptop deal By CASEY NEILL

A CHEAP laptop deal has turned sour for a 48-yearold Dandenong man. Greater Dandenong CIU Detective Acting Sergeant Luke Kirton said the victim met a man on 31 May, and agreed to purchase a laptop

from him. They arranged to meet at Dandenong railway station later in the day, but the seller changed the location to Dandenong Showgrounds at Greaves Reserve, Bennet Street. He and a man and woman arrived in a mid-’90s

white Ford Falcon station wagon about 2.15pm. When the victim showed him the large amount of cash he’d brought to buy the computer, the man kicked and punched him and stole his money and mobile phone.

1124675-MD19-14

Det Acting Sgt Kirton said the investigation was ongoing. He said a football match was underway nearby at the time, and urged anyone who observed the vehicle in the area about 2pm to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

This FACE image is said to be a 90 per cent likeness of the man police are seeking.

Burglar in face-off A WOMAN woke up and came face to face with a man who broke into her Springvale home last month. Police last week released a FACE image of the man they believe was responsible for the Rosa Avenue burglary. The 26-year-old woman woke to knocking on her front door about 11.40am on Thursday 8 May, but ignored it. A man then entered the house, but fled when confronted with the victim. He’s described as Asian, 175 centimetres tall and aged in his midtwenties with a thin build and oval face. He was wearing a grey hooded top and grey pants.

BUSINESS SOUTH-EAST

Port for the future By CASEY NEILL

GREATER Dandenong business is getting behind the Port of Hastings as a confidence-booster for investment in the region. But the Committee for Dandenong is also calling for infrastructure upgrades to support the potential growth. “At the very least we would need it all operating effectively before the port is in place. Otherwise there’ll be no investment,” chairman Gary Castricum said. “They (governments) need to be making the right signals to industry in the area.” Committee for Dandenong and Pitcher Partners will hold a Port of Hastings project briefing for key local businesses on 22 July. Committee spokeswoman Jill Walsh said the port would drive business growth in the South-East, and the forum would outline the project’s key features and help businesses identify opportunities. Port of Hastings Development Authority CEO Mike Lean will speak, as

will Ports, Major Projects and Manufacturing Minister David Hodgett. “It’s to firstly concentrate on the Port of Hastings development as not a pie in the sky, long-term thing, but to try and bring it forward and put some political pressure to bring it forward,” Ms Walsh said. “It’s a good news story for Dandenong. It’s huge in terms of confidence and investment.” Ms Walsh said there’d been recent job announcements for Geelong. “We’re a bit bemused by that because there’s not been any attention given to Dandenong,” she said. “A large part of the auto component industry is in Dandenong South and the effects of that have not yet been felt. “That will just gradually roll out and those jobs will go unless there’s more investment into Dandenong and more confidence to invest into Dandenong to create jobs for those people.” Mr Castricum said the metropolitan planning authority had designated Dandenong South as a national employment cluster.

“It links in the with port,” he said. “I think the great thing for people in and around Dandenong is employment, and significantly improved infrastructure, because the port’s going to require that. “There’s a lot more strength in arguments about extra rail links, extra road links ... and that’s certainly going to be good for people living out here and people employing out here.” A 180-hectare site in Dandenong South has been designated as an inland container port, with the Bunnings distribution centre the first business to move in. Mr Castricum said it would bring thousands of jobs to the area over the coming decade, but would put pressure on roads, particularly Abbotts Road. He said the Bangholme Bypass concept needed to become a reality to more effectively link the area with EastLink and the South Gippsland Freeway. He said the Remington Drive overpass, linking the road with Pound Road West, was a key component and

the group would continue to advocate for it to be constructed as a toll road to speed up the process. City of Greater Dandenong will extend Produce Drive to meet Abbotts Road over the next year as part of the connection, with financial support from a key user of the road, Aldi. The council has indicated it will expand Abbotts Road to a dual lane carriage way in 2015-’16, completing another piece of the bypass. But Mr Castricum said there wasn’t yet a timeline on sealing Bangholme Road, from the Hammond Road corner. “It could be a while,” he said. “What we need to advocate is that it needs to happen within a reasonable timeframe, particularly if the Port of Hastings and the inland port development are proceeding. “We’d love to see one of the parties commit to the Remington Drive overpass before the election. “We’d be saying that the Remington Overpass is still our priority.”

Smart design finalist in architecture awards THE Dandenong Mental Health Facility is a finalist in this year’s Victorian Architecture Awards. The Bates Smart Whitefield McQueen Irwin Alsop Joint Venture project is in the Public Architecture - New category. It’s one of the largest mental health facilities in Victoria and consolidates residential, research, training and administration activities in a new complex co-located with an acute hospital. The living, dining, staff and support spaces are grouped, and 120 single bedrooms are in 38 pavilions arranged around 16 landscaped courtyards. The pavilions are framed and clad in vertical blackbutt timber slats. Timber was selected to provide warmth, texture, patterning, tactility and a non-institutional feel. The pavilions also form a courtyard, avoiding the need to construct high institutional security walls. The courtyards provide staff and patients with natural daylight and landscape views from most parts of the building and are the focal point of the lounge and dining spaces, blurring the boundaries between interior and exterior. The Australian Institute of Architects runs the National Architecture Awards program, which includes the Victorian Architecture Awards. The state winners will be announced on 20 June and the national awards presentation will be held on 6 November.

Will offices add up to shoppers? By CASEY NEILL CENTRAL Dandenong traders remain hopeful that new offices will bring more shoppers through their doors. About 70 people attended a Dandenong Retail Traders Association (DRTA) networking night at the new City of Greater Dandenong civic centre on 3 June. Glenys Cooper chairwoman said the event was “a great night” and various businesses, Dandenong Plaza and Dandenong Market were represented. “I spoke on us all working together,” she said. Ms Cooper said Mayor Jim Memeti encouraged people to be proud of Dandenong and its progress - particularly the municipal building and community square. “We had a tour of council workings,” she said. “People were interested to know what was happening behind the big doors.” Ms Cooper expected the influx of workers would benefit central Dandenong traders. “There’s no more construction work going on there. We haven’t got parts or whole sections of road closed off,” she said. “As workers get more adventurous in their lunchtimes they’ll start venturing out to the things that central Dandenong has to offer. “Traders are certainly seeing more people walking around. “I wouldn’t say that they’re spending more yet, but they are walking around and that’s good for morale.” The council is asking the community to put forward potential names for the precinct, and Ms Cooper suggested it could follow Jeff’s Shed and take its name from council CEO John Bennie - Bennie’s Backyard. “It will be interesting to see what it’s called,” she said. “It needs to bring us all together.” Ms Cooper said the DRTA hoped to hold another networking night in October, focusing on retailing trends.

Still enjoys his Sunday whistle By JARROD POTTER AFTER 35 years in the sport and blowing the whistle on 1000 junior football matches, Noble Park’s Ron Harris still enjoys his Sunday passion. Harris, 64, has been officiating junior footy since early 1980s, after retiring as a footballer following a back injury. He has been a mainstay in the Dandenong District Junior Football League (DDJFL), now known as the South East Juniors, throughout those years and has only missed two grand finals in his long career. “Back in about 1979 to 1981 give or take a few years,” Harris said, “I played football and got a back injury and after that I was the trainer for Noble Park for my son’s team while he played then I got conned into umpiring.” Staying fit for his day job as a CFA fire-fighter with the Springvale Fire Brigade was an important reason for picking up the whistle. “I thought, working with the fire brigade, I needed something to keep me fit besides what I do at work, and I enjoyed it,” Harris said. Harris ran out onto Frederick Wachter Reserve to officiate his 1000th game on Sunday 11 May - an under-15 match between Parkmore and Pakenham - and enjoyed umpiring with good friends in the milestone match.

“When I did my 1000th game, I umpired with Paul Winterton and Emily Escort,” Harris said. “It was really good to umpire in that match with those people that I’ve umpired with over a long time.” Giving back to the next generation is important for Harris and he loves guiding the rookie umpires - who wear green shirts - in their first steps as junior officials. “When you’re learning to umpire you need someone more experienced to help and I’m really pleased that I can give something back to the SEJ for what they’ve done for me over the years,” Harris said. “I go umpire with the green shirts, give them advice and that’s very good for me when you’re retiring. “It’s also the comradeship with the umpires and being able to help the other umpires out with my experience as well.” Retirement is on the horizon for both his weekday and weekend careers with Harris set to hang up his whistle either this season or next to relocate to Queensland. Harris wanted to thank his family - wife Terry, daughter Sallyanne and son Dean, for their support over his three-and-a-half decade-long umpiring journey.

South East Juniors umpire Ron Harris bounced into his 1000th game in junior football last month. 121438 Picture: JARROD POTTER

Capping it all for Cappiello By JARROD POTTER SQUEEZING another achievement onto an already impressive junior football resume, Haileybury footballer Gianluca Cappiello has earned his first Victorian representative guernsey. It is little wonder Cappiello, 14, from Mount Waverley, was selected in the School Sport Victoria under-16 football team considering what sits on his trophy shelf. Six junior best and fairest awards, two league best and fairest trophies, interleague honours and a pair of grand-final best on ground medals in premiership victories for the Oakleigh Dragons in the South Metro Junior Football League (SMJFL), highlight the young midfielder’s talent. Even with that background of success, his selection for the School Sport Victoria squad is his crowning achievement so far. “I was selected as part of the last 60 and played a match between Vic Metro and Country,” Cappiello said. “After that the selectors rang me up on the phone and told me that I made it… it was one of the best feelings. “I was relieved - it was the best thing I’ve got picked for so far.” Cappiello and the School Sport Victoria team head to Sydney from 19-26 July and the young midfielder/forward wants to showcase his skills and hopefully bring back the championship victory. “Try and play my best and show my best for the coaches and all the selectors when they come down… show them, for my size, what I can do,” Cappiello said. “Just want to knock off the championship - we usually win it every year so

FOOTBALL FEDERATION VICTORIA - Dockerty Cup

Against the odds... and out of the Blues By JARROD POTTER

Not adverse to getting a possession on the school oval, Haileybury footballer Gianluca Cappiello will now earn his kicks for the School Sport Victoria team. 121012 Picture: JARROD POTTER another one would be good.” It is his first year at Haileybury College and he has already secured his place on the school’s first football team as its youngest current player.

This will be Cappiello’s last year in club football - playing currently at Beaumaris - before he focuses on school football and region representative duties with the Oakleigh Chargers.

ODDS would have been firmly against South Springvale advancing to the Dockerty Cup quarter finals. The FFV State League One South East team had a stellar run through to the top 16 - knocking off Doncaster, Cairnlea and NPL side Pascoe Vale en route to its clash against Fawkner Blues last week. As one of the last non-NPL soccer teams in the singleelimination competition - South Springvale was able to shake off the Blues to slot the matchwinning goal via Dean Panagopoulos (1-0) to advance to the top eight. “It was a very tough game,” South Springvale coach Bill Lambropoulos said. “It was a game of two halves - they were the better side in the first half and we were the better side in the second half because of our fitness “One goal put us through and we’re looking forward to the next round.” Lambropoulos believes his side has what it takes to knock off its next opponent - NPL side Hume City - and head, not

only into the Dockerty Cup final four, but also earn a spot in the Football Federation Australia (FFA) Cup. “It’s a tough game and we’ll play it the way we’ve played the other cup games,” Lambropoulos said. “We knocked off Pascoe Vale, last week we beat them 1-0 at Pascoe Vale and it was good to know that we can mix it with the NPL teams.” South Springvale hopes to advance into the NPL structure in upcoming years as Lambropoulos said facilities were the main reason the club could not put forward a bid. “Definitely - that’s been our aim,” Lambropoulos said. “Because the facilities haven’t been finalised but it’s something that we’ll be looking at down the track.” Lambropoulos encouraged South Springvale fans to get out and support the boys in their bid to make the inaugural FFA Cup and potentially square off against an A-League team. The clash against Hume City will be hosted by Heidelberg on Wednesday 11 June from 7.30pm.

SPORT FOOTBALL FEDERATION VICTORIA - National Premier Leagues

Evening Thunder strikes Suns By JARROD POTTER A NIGHTTIME visit to Shepparton proved worthwhile for Dandenong Thunder - bringing home in its luggage a 4-0 win over Goulburn Valley Suns. Rotating his list after a strenuous last week - especially with back-toback loses to South Melbourne following a 120-minute Dockerty Cup defeat before a 0-5 belting on Sunday - Thunder coach Dean Hennessey made sure his best were rested and in some cases, left off the sheet entirely to recover. Captain Alan Mulcahy was forced to sit out with osteitis pubis while David King, Matt Millar, Jake Nakic and Ramazan Tavsancioglu all are either on the mend or facing fresh injury concerns heading into Saturday night’s clash against Heidelberg. Dandenong took the early lead through a Tavsancioglu wonder-striker in the ninth minute before Jake Nakic’s thunderbolt secured the second, but at the cost of an ankle injury to take the striker from the field. Brendan Craig slotted the third before the break from a set-piece header to comfortable stroll into the change rooms with a handy buffer. The Suns best chance came from a free kick, but Dandenong cleared through stand-in captain Alan Kearney, to find the eagerly awaiting Mar-

cus Schroen header to seal the game. “It was a great response from last week - had a really tough week where we played three games - first against Ballarat then playing South Melbourne twice,” Thunder coach Hennessey said. “Unfortunate enough to lose in the (Dockerty) Cup and on Sunday we were good in the first half and it was interesting to see how we responded. “It was a really good team performance and to score four goals away from home I was delighted with it to be honest.” Hennessey said Mulcahy and Nakic are in doubt for Saturday night’s home-clash against Heidelberg United, but the coach believes it has highlighted the depth of his squad heading into the second half of the NPL season. “It tests your squad… we’ve got a really good squad of boys, who are really competitive,” Hennessey said. “If I can throw four or five in, I think we play slightly different types of players and for a coach that’s a great thing to have - flexibility… they can do a job for us and they keep working as hard as we do.” In other results, Springvale White Eagles was beset by the rain, wind and a ferocious Avondale Heights side. The home side kicked ahead in the 58th minute through Jamie Le Page and that was enough to take the points.

The captain’s armband suited Dandenong Thunder’s Alan Kearney well as he led the Thunder to a 4-0 win over Goulburn Valley Suns. 117318 Picture: JARROD POTTER

Mepunga Hayley five on the trot Acton a cut above the rest By JASON ADAMS MEPUNGA Hayley made it five wins on the trot last Thursday night at Sandown Park, claiming the $19,250 Symmetry @ Stud Damsels Dash. Starting as the $1.90 favourite Mepunga Hayley sprung out of box one, setting a fast 5.06 at first split to lead the field first time past the post. Mepunga Hayley extended her lead in the final stages of the race, winning by three lengths in a smart time of 29.52 from kennel mate Mepunga Moss. Only having recently turned two-years-of-age, Mepunga Hayley already boasts a prize money total of $42,460. Trainer Jeff Britton was pleased with the run and hopes her good form can continue. Britton’s team was also engaged at Albion Park in the heats of the Macro Meats Gold Cup with Infinite Wish claiming the second heat of the series in an impressive come from behind win, RSN Sandown Cup finalist Mepunga Tiara also

By NICK CROOK

Mepunga Hayley and Mepunga Moss have shown their true colours as champion greyhounds for trainer Jeff Britton. 121810 qualified for next week’s $75,000 to-the-winner final. However, the show was stolen by the Queen of greyhound racing Xylia Allen, winning her heat of the Gold Cup in 41.55 just one length off the track record. “Infinite Wish would be our best hope of winning the race however I don’t think Xylia Allen can be beat-

en, something would have to go wrong for her not to win, she’s an amazing greyhound’’, said Britton. Britton wasn’t the only winner last Thursday night, with the Murrumbeena Football Club collecting $4,900 for their club courtesy of the Sandown Superwheel, the Yarra Valley Old Boys Football Club also taking home $1,000 in the Club Challenge.

BRANDON Acton saw his sister come home crying - she had found out that her best friend, Ricky Taylor, had been diagnosed with cancer. Most 14-year-olds would comfort their sister in any way they could but for Brandon, that wasn’t enough. “Just one night I was sitting there and I was wondering what I could do to help,” he said. What he ended up doing to help, of his own volition without the guidance or help of his parents, was raise over $1000 by organising a fundraiser to shave his head. “The first time I heard about it was when my friend sent me a text message saying how great it was what Brandon was doing,” said his mother. Upon hearing what Brandon planned to do, the team’s captain, Mitchell Palma took his leadership role to the next level and joined Brandon in his fundraising effort. Following football training the team returned to the Parkmore Pirates clubrooms to start culling some hair. In exchange for a donation the boys let team-

mates, club members and friends shave their locks off and it wasn’t necessarily the treatment you’d receive at your local hairdresser. “Mitch had it pretty easy but I had a couple of kids come and they shaved it pretty hard,” joked Brandon. The character of these boys was on full display as not only have they raised over $1,000 but they did so for a young man who doesn’t even play on their team or run in the same circles. When they saw the opportunity to help they didn’t just talk about doing it - Brandon didn’t even tell his parents! - they went out and did it. It wasn’t the first time that the young Parkmore Pirate has done his bit for charity; he has completed Run for the Kids and also sacrificed his hair in years gone by when he participated in the World’s Greatest Shave. Brandon was pretty modest about the whole event: “It gets a bit cold in the morning... But it’s hair - it will grow back.” Ricky went in for major surgery the following Tuesday and both Parkmore Pirates and the South East Juniors wish him a speedy recovery.

SPORT EASTERN FOOTBALL LEAGUE - round 8

Noble Park’s Stewart Kemperman leads the slog through the Pictures: JARROD POTTER Balwyn ‘mudfield’. 121812

Sam Monaghan attempts to shrug off his Balwyn opponent. 121812

Bulls’ muddy coming-of-age By JARROD POTTER AS THE darkness crept across Balwyn Reserve on Saturday, a few Eastern Football League truths had been uncovered. Balwyn is no longer the juggernaut it was in previous seasons - the backto-back premiers will need to work a lot harder now to steamroll opponents. Noble Park’s season is not a writeoff as the Bulls emerged with a 28-point win over the Tigers and most importantly, muddy football remains the most entertaining brand of the sport to watch. The Bulls and Tigers slogged through the detritus at Balwyn Reserve in Noble Park’s coming-of-age victory to final defeat Balwyn after a multipleyear drought. Work rate was determined by how

filthy you came off the field, with the likes of Stewart Kemperman, Piva Wright and Luke Bull showing their efforts via mud caked all over. Kemperman’s effort was even more impressive as he battled his way back from an Achilles ligament injury which kept him on the sidelines for two weeks. After establishing the early lead, Noble Park went tit-for-tat to keep Balwyn on the leash throughout the second half. The sealing goal came half way through the last term as Sam Monaghan drilled the clincher and started the celebrations before goals to Peter McGettigan and Dan Keely emphatically captured the win. “I went through the team and they

were all absolutely outstanding,” Noble Park coach Jon Knight said. “Johnson early in the first half was outstanding. “Will Kelly through the centre, Ando (Craig Anderson) could’ve kicked four or five goals, which would have capped off a great game, but Piva Wright nonstop in the ruck with Dorey (Brett Dore) and Monners (Sam Monaghan)… really, really good. “The blokes who aren’t as prolific in our stand-out players, the middle tiered players were good and the whole team was great.” Knight praised the efforts of his back six - especially full-back Bobby Kemperman negating Luke Barker, Jarryd Plymin holding down Jeff Gob-

CASEY CARDINIA FOOTBALL LEAGUE - round 8

bels and highlighting Dan Keely’s effort on Blake Broadhurst. It wasn’t a coincidence, a blessing or anything doled out artificially for Knight - he knew Noble Park won its most important match of the year through gritting its teeth and getting the job done. “Balwyn at Balwyn, after the season we’ve had so far, it’s one of those ones we need to get over the line… the way we got over the line and the way we played was exciting,” Knight said. “We didn’t win through luck, we won through hard work and the boys have got to know that is the required work rate every week to win.” Matches against Blackburn and Vermont and a hard week on the track

added up for Knight’s charges and the experience gained from tougher opposition made the difference. “Thought we came in a bit harder than them, and we had a tough week on the track, sometimes that can be a negative and work against you but it was a risk I was willing to take and today it paid off,” Knight said. Knight said the win helps avenge last year’s grand final loss to the Tigers and most importantly, puts the Bulls back into contention for this year’s cup. The win corrects the Bulls season and brings them up to a 3-4 record and eighth on the EFL Division 1 ladder. Noble Park heads to Rowville on Saturday to hopefully jump back up to the top half of the ladder.

VICTORIAN AMATEUR FOOTBALL ASSOCIATION - Masalapaki Cup

ROC Roos rain supreme Spicy matchup By JARROD POTTER

By DAVID NAGEL IT RAINED heavily in all aspects at Keysborough. The wet-weather slog on Saturday was relished by the opposing ROC Kangaroos - who rained goals in a 62-point win over the Burras. Nothing went well for Keysborough as only two goals flew through the uprights til half-time and they only managed to double that amount by the final siren. A slippery ball or wayward feet were the only things keeping ROC from claiming a triple-figure victory as it ran through 13.14 (92) to Keysborough’s 4.6 (30). Michael Downie claimed a pair of goals and was named best afield for his efforts while Richard Minney stormed up and down the field to negate ROC’s impact as best he could. Other Burras to impress on field were Reece Spadaccini, Cameron Dalton and Daniel Morland. Keysborough slip below ROC on the Casey Cardinia pecking order - with only Hampton Park between the Burra and the wooden spoon. In a league of haves and have nots, Keysborough will need to bounce back this week against Hampton Park to stand any chance of regaining moving back towards the middle of the Casey Cardinia pack.

INDIA and Pakistan have never been on the same page internationally, but thankfully the Victorian football community, and two representative teams of ex-pats, are able to put the past behind them. Dandenong based Masala Football Club - formed originally from the Indian Tigers International Cup team - hosted the Pakistan Shaheens on Saturday for a hit-out before the upcoming tournament. The match was played at a frenetic pace, with both Tigers and Shaheens flying through the midfield to give the ball lace-out to the forwards. Masala’s Jordan Toitalkin lit up the field as he gathered countless possessions and found his way forward to drill a couple of goals while Jarred Aoun and Ryan Harrop also claimed the hard-ball through the centre when it mattered most. The inaugural Masalapaki Cup was claimed by the Tigers with a 17.15 (117) to 7.9 (51) win over the Shaheens. The win will help Masala build confidence before its next Victorian Amateur Football Association (VAFA) clash in the Club XVIII (1) competition against Prahran Assumption on Saturday

MOTORING Skoda is in the saddle IN a very astute piece of marketing that began in 2004, Czech carmaker Skoda has made its name synonymous with Le Tour de France. No exciting driving shots - apart from swerving to avoid wobbly bikes or suicidal spectators - but lots of exposure for the distinctive bold Skoda grille and winged arrow logo. To capitalise on this, Skoda Australia has released a number of new or upgraded models that we’re currently road testing and will report on over the next few weeks. Starting at the top, we’ve just finished a very enjoyable week behind the wheel of the hottest Skoda of them all, the high-performance Octavia RS. Available as either a sedan or wagon the RS (for RallySport) is effectively a longer (+336 mm) version of the Volkswagen Golf GTi with a different body. It shares its engine and transmission with the VW. While the Skoda can’t match the iconic VW hot hatch for street cred, it does offer the convenience that comes with more interior space. Performance is reduced slightly due to the larger, heavier body. As before the 2014 Octavia RS is available as either a four-door sedan or a five-door wagon We’ve always liked the overall

styling of Skoda vehicles - perhaps because they’re still relatively rare on Australian roads it might just be a case of ‘vive le difference’. Octavia RS adds extra presence through the addition of a bolder grille design, honeycomb air inlets, 18-inch alloy wheels, wide air intake, front foglamps, LED daytime running lights and ‘RS’ badging. The interior of the Octavia RS wagon provides a surprising amount of rear seat space, both in knee and headroom. The outer rear seats have the same ribbed surface as the fronts and, although there is seating for three in the back the centre seat is narrow and uncomfortable. The 588-litre cargo area in the wagon has a low floor helped by a space-saver wheel below. The sedan’s boot takes only 20 litres less than the wagon’s. There’s a choice of two turbocharged 2.0-litre engines, a 162 kW / 350 Nm petrol or a 135 kW / 380 Nm 2.0-litre diesel. As we’ve come to expect with each new generation of modern engines, there are improvements across the board. Power is up by 15 KW, torque up by a whopping 70 Nm with zero to 100 km/h acceleration down from 7.5 to 6.9 seconds. The official combined cycle fuel consumption for the 162 TSI wagon

We’re becoming increasingly concerned about the distractive effect of these screens and were pleased to be able to use such a clear screen with large buttons and a format that’s easy to understand as well as proximity sensors. Skoda Octavia RS is right up there with the most versatile cars available in Australia. It’s available as a sedan or wagon, with petrol or diesel power, is large and comfortable enough for long distance cruising yet with driving characteristics not far short of its Golf GTi cousin it’s great fun to drive. For those with an eye for a bargain, the standard Octavia is available, again as either a sedan or wagon, starting from a very reasonable $21,690 (plus on-road costs). Model range Octavia RS 162 TSI 2.0-litre petrol four-door sedan: $36,490 (manual), $38,790 (DSG automatic); Octavia RS 135 TDI 2.0-litre diesel four-door sedan: $39,790 (DSG automatic); Octavia RS 162 TSI 2.0-litre petrol five-door wagon: $37,840 (manual), $40,140 (DSG automatic); Octavia RS 135 TDI 2.0-litre diesel five-door wagon: $41,140 (DSG automatic).

drops from 8.5 to 6.6 L/100 km although it’s unlikely that the typical RS buyer will achieve this number. In our standard urban/motorway test route, with a bit of rural hustling in between, we couldn’t get below 9.6. Transmission options are sixspeed manual in the petrol engine only and six-speed manual DSG dual-clutch transmission with both petrol and diesel. While most driving enthusiasts are likely to opt for the petrol Octavia RS, the surcharge for the diesel is now just $1000 (down from $2000) and this, together with the extra torque and better fuel economy, will make it more attractive for daily commuters. Standard safety equipment in the Octavia RS includes nine airbags, ABS brakes with EBD, Multi-Collision Braking, Passenger Protect Assist and Fatigue Detection. An optional Tech Pack is due shortly and it will provide adaptive cruise control, reversing camera, automatic parking assist and an enhanced keyless entry system. No price for the RS Tech Pack has been announced as yet but based on those for the standard Octavia models it could be about $4000. The Octavia’s system uses an eight-inch high resolution touch screen and it’s one of the best we’ve encountered.

The Skoda Octavia RS wagon is a highperformance load carrier. The Octavia RS has something for everyone.
