■ Refuge shortage is leaving family violence victims in danger...

Nowhere to run to “It’s fine to pour more money into the family violence system but it won’t work if you don’t fund housing services.”

Ms Spencer said there were more cases coming before the courts because people were more willing to report domestic abuse and police were acting on complaints more quickly.

“It’s a good thing that people can seek protection and perpetrators know they’re being held accountable.”

Ms Spencer said police weren’t just bringing intervention orders but more often pressing criminal charges.

Sometimes the perpetrator has to be jailed or refused bail to protect victims – an option that is increasingly used, Ms Spencer said.

“Often those caught for family violence don’t have any other offending but sometimes the family violence is so bad they are denied bail.

“They’ve often never been in

court before, let alone the prison system – that can be a very big eye-opener for them.”

But there are also hard cases – when the perpetrator’s brutality warrants jail which would harshly punish his partner and children.

“When the perpetrator is the bread-winner, the victim might say ‘if he goes to jail we’ll lose our house’.”

Experts agree that a victim is in the greatest danger when they choose to leave.

How does a magistrate keep them safe?

“The court is one part of the puzzle,” Ms Spencer said. “We ensure the victim is linked in with family violence services to talk to confidentially.

“They will do a safety plan: if there’s violence, who do I contact? Do they have a bag packed?

“They can support a victim over time to leave, to go to where they’re safe.”

Ms Spencer said the legal system was delving more into the “underlying causes of violence” by sending perpetrators to men’s behavioural change programs.

The Journal’s White Ribbon campaign continues on pages 12 and 13.

WELLSPRINGS for Women has been helping isolated women to learn, grow and connect with the community since 1994. The Journal spoke to manager Veronica Hassett about the White Ribbon movement and the Dandenong service’s role in challenging family violence.

A DANDENONG-based magistrate has called for funding to boost the number family violence refuges.

Pauline Spencer said the law was supported by a “fantastic network of services” in Dandenong to protect victims and stop perpetrators.

However she said a lack of emergency refuges in Greater Dandenong, Casey and Cardinia was a barrier to victims who needed to leave their aggressors.

“If someone needs to be placed (in housing) after family violence, we know the housing services are stretched.

“The law and court is one part of the puzzle – the whole system has to be properly supported.”

According to Department of Human Services statistics, there were more than 3800 people on the Dandenong public housing waiting list.

WAYSS homelessness manager Jen Kelly said the growth in family violence reporting was “adding a dimension to an already stretched system”.

“For women moving into public housing (because of family violence), there’s just no growth in the housing system.

Fuel spill flashpoint

By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS AN AVIATION fuel spill that gridlocked the Monash Freeway and the surrounding road network for five hours on Wednesday has ignited concerns about Lyndhurst’s industrial waste dump.

A Toll Group truck was parked near the freeway’s Heatherton Road overpass shortly after 10am when the truckie was alerted to a leak by another driver.

The truck driver called emergency crews, triggering the closures of the freeway and Heatherton Road until 3pm while up to 12 CFA crews cleaned up the spill.

A CFA spokeswoman said there was concern that the fuel leaking from a drum might mix and ignite with “other highly dangerous chemicals” carried by the truck. During the clean-up, the CFA issued a warning to nearby residents, advising them to stay indoors and not to turn on air-conditioners.

Last week the EPA confirmed the truck was carrying industrial waste.

RATWISE spokeswoman Thelma Wakelam said the incident highlighted the folly of locating the state’s only industrial waste dump at Taylors Road, Lyndhurst.

“It’s a disgrace and opens up more questions - how often does this occur? Where was the truck headed - to the tip or for treatment?”

She pointed to EPA regulations prohibiting the transporting of prescribed industrial wastes of different types together unless they were “compatible with each other”.

“Is any waste actually compatible with highly flammable aviation fuel?

“Just how often are we transporting dangerous material on suburban roads and freeways?

“Maybe there is cause, in an effort to avoid potential dramas, to transport waste at night to minimise this risk.

“There’s certainly a compelling argument for locating hazardous industries in areas away from suburbia.”

Clean-up crews park at a distance from a truck that leaked aviation fuel on Wednesday. 130664 Picture: GARY SISSONS RATWISE and Greater Dandenong Council are mounting complementary campaigns to lobby state election candidates to close the Lyndhurst toxic waste dump.

Mayor Sean O’Reilly said: “While this (incident) is not directly related, the community would be concerned.

“That’s why we’re continuing the campaign for the closure of (the prescribed industrial waste dump).”

The council has been collating responses from candidates on the issue, which will be published on the council’s website before the election. Neither the ALP nor the Coali-

tion parties have yet indicated they would back the council’s stance.

EPA chief executive Nial Finegan said he would not comment or speculate on the incident during the authority’s investigation.

He said transporters carrying prescribed industrial waste, the source waste generator and receiving companies were potentially liable to “substantial fines” of more than $350,000 if they failed to comply with regulations.

Toll Group spokesman Christopher Whitefield said it took its safety responsibility “extremely seriously”.

“We appreciate and apologise for the inconvenience that events like (this) cause but will always co-operate with authorities where potential safety concerns arise.”

During the clean-up, drivers reported long delays on Dandenong’s main arterials.

A ‘perfect storm’ of incidents intensified the traffic congestion, including a road closure at Dandenong Bypass due to a fatal two-car crash early the same morning, a large fire at Sandown Racecourse at 11.30am and a car crash rescue at the Monash Freeway-EastLink intersection at 11.49am.

Man faces jail in historic police assault case came into effect on 3 November.

Nezirevic was refused bail after standing accused of three counts of assaulting police officers on 9 November.

Informant Constable Michaela Orchard told the court that police were allegedly called to an intervention order breach by a “drug affected” Nezirevic at a

Noble Park house. Nezirevic was capsicum-sprayed by police who described him as “aggressive, violent and non-compliant”, the court was told.

During the incident he allegedly resisted police and hit two officers - one on the arm and the other on the leg.

The court was told Nezirevic was on a community-based order and out on

Magistrate Jack Vandersteen, in refusing bail, said this was the “fourth time you have been in trouble this year”.

Nezirevic told the court he was withdrawing from the drug ‘ice’.

He was remanded to appear at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on 10 December.

A TRUCK driver last week pleaded guilty to five charges over a fatal Dandenong South train crash.

Melville Bollen, 72, from Narre Warren North was due to answer 44 charges in a Supreme Court trial over the November 2012 collision at Abbotts Road. But at a preliminary hearing last Thursday he pleaded guilty to one count of culpable driving and four of negligently causing serious injury.

In March Melbourne Magistrates’ Court heard that Bollen drove a prime mover with a trailer through lowered boom gates as he travelled west on Abbotts Road and collided with a train shortly after 11.40am on Saturday 3 November.

The train derailed, injuring 14 people and killing Cranbourne West passenger David Cron, 43.

Bollen is due to face a pre-sentence hearing this week.

A BOMB explosion on a Dandenong front porch has prompted an arson warning from police.

Greater Dandenong CIU Detective Senior Constable Ryan Johnson has appealed for information about the blast on Tuesday 4 November and two other suspicious fires in Noble Park and Dandenong. Arsonists placed the bomb on the front porch of a home in Dandenong Street, Dandenong, about 3.20am on Melbourne Cup day.

“The device exploded, causing minor damage,” Sen Const Johnson said.

“It failed to ignite the premises. No-one was injured.”

He said the device included a plastic container and a spray paint can or similar item.

“It could have done some damage if it had got the desired effect,” he said.

“This time of year we have a real problem with arson. At this time of year the smallest little fire and it wouldn’t take much to have another recurrence of the catastrophic fires we had a few years ago with Black Saturday.”

A resident in Langley Crescent, Dandenong, saw three men running from his burning fence through neighbouring parkland about 3.30am last Tuesday, 11 November. The fire destroyed 1.5 metres of fencing before the CFA could extinguish it.

A suspicious fire caused extensive damage to a unit in Fintonia Road, Noble Park, about 2.30am on 31 October.

Sen Const Johnson said no-one was injured because the unit was vacant. He said residential Greater Dandenong wasn’t readily associated with bushfire risk.

“But setting fires in a built-up area could potentially be more dangerous,” he said.

Call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or Greater Dandenong CIU on 9767 7487 with information.

Grocery memories come flooding back JACK JOHNSON IS THE AUTHOR OF WHEN THE CLOCK STRIKES, A FASCINATING ACCOUNT OF GROWING UP IN DANDENONG, HIS YEARS TENDING TO THE CITY’S PIPES AND DRAINS AS A PLUMBER AND BRINGING UP A FAMILY WITH WIFE FRANCES IN THEIR BELOVED HOME IN MACPHERSON STREET. DANDENONG was a town so quiet and safe that as a five-year-old I would be sent on errands to the shops in Lonsdale Street.

If it were for groceries, it would be to Crump’s General Store which backed onto the wide, open brick drain that ran through central Dandenong.

As the drain regularly overflowed throughout that area the flood water beneath the building often reached to the front door of the shop.

The stumps at the rear of the building were very high and cut from round redgum logs.

Inside the shop the groceries were on the left and on the right was the general store section.

Through a doorway at the back could be seen the walls, lined with hes-

sian and wallpaper, of the quaint old living quarters of the Crumps.

The Walker Street frontage of the building was occupied by Maggs Hardware.

If it was a grocery order that had to be home-delivered I would sometimes take it to a little shop on the west side of Lonsdale Street about midway between the Albion Hotel and Clow Street.

At that time the shop was singlefronted with a residence above in which lived Mrs Johnston, a lovely little old lady. I remember it so vividly.

As you entered that perfect shop, the bell dangling on the wire door would ring and this petite lady would appear at the top of the stairs clad in her immaculate Victorian attire, with her long brown hair twisted into a knot.

The whole scene was not unlike a Gainsborough canvas.

Then there were those unforgettable aromas of spices and produce none of which was packaged, all painstakingly transferred from containers into a polished metal dish which was then weighted on scales.

The scales were counterbalanced by brass weights graded from one

ounce up to two pounds and when the correct weight was achieved the goods were tipped into a paper bag.

Mrs Johnson’s little grocery store was not of a size to warrant a large delivery vehicle but had a bicycle with a good sized steel framed basket over the front wheel in which the grocery boy would deliver our order.

That particular grocery boy, Gordon Norris, would eventually own the business and later the Gordon Norris Real Estate Agency.

If you turned left at our front gate you were heading to the shops of the excitement of the produce and stock market where you could meet some of the greatest characters ever to be found in a country town.

There were Chinese, Italian and

Greek, Jewish, Afghan, Russian and others.

I never heard their real names, only nicknames lovingly bestowed on them by their Aussie stallholder mates - who were also given nicknames in return.

Milk was delivered by Mr Kendall.

Our house sat behind a cypress hedge that had overgrown a Federation woven-wire fence.

All that was visible, in line with our front door, was an iron and wire scroll top gate on which we hung our milk billy for Mr Kendall to fill.

Mr Kendall delivered the milk from a hand can which hung from the handle bars of his old black pushbike.

Inside the can was a long-handled half pint dipper.

Although gate receipts were down on last year’s record figure, the Dandenong Agricultural and Pastoral Society’s 93rd annual show last Saturday was in many respects the best ever held.

A record number of entries and outstanding quality in nearly every section added up to success.

Last Saturday’s exhibition was most gratifying for the society’s President (Mr Arnold Keys) and new secretary (Mr Jim Taylor).

you consider the job possibilities and Dandenong as a regional centre,” he said.

Dandenong has shut the gate on a 600 bed maximum security prison despite claims it would create 600 jobs during construction and 200 ongoing positions.

The recommendation that council advise the New Prisons Project (NPP) that “no suitable sites” were available in the City of Dandenong, was supported by all councillors at last Monday’s meeting excluding South Ward councillor Greg Harris.

When contracted by ‘The Journal’ after the meeting Councillor Harris said he did not support the recommendation because he felt the vote was more a decision not to encourage the development of a prison in the city.

‘Please come home’ IT’S been almost three months since Jake Lyons mysteriously left his Dandenong North home.

His father Rick went out with friends on 25 August and returned to find his Scullin Street house unlocked and the gas stove on.

There was no sign of 20-year-old Jake and he hasn’t contacted family or friends since.

Rick, Jake’s sister Janessa, 19, and cousin Kim last Wednesday made an impassioned plea for him to come home - or at least let them know he’s OK. Kim said he was suffering from depression and “wasn’t in a good place” before he disappeared.

“He’s either not with us,” she said, choking back tears, “or he’s gone somewhere else to work.”

“He mentioned going to a rural area and just, basically, hiding away, in a quiet town with not many people.

“He didn’t like being around crowds.”

Kim described Jake as very intelligent, caring, thoughtful and loving.

“It’s hard for us to get on with our lives because we don’t know

Kim, Janessa and Rick are pleading for Jake to come home. 130681 where he is,” she said.

“We really hope that if someone sees him they can please just contact the police, just to let us know he’s OK.” Rick said his son had “a strong

character” and was sorely missed.

“Just having his presence there and knowing he’s safe and he’s got somewhere warm to sleep,” he said.

“Not knowing that is what tears you apart inside.”

Rick said Janessa, who has cerebral palsy, hadn’t said much about her brother’s disappearance.

“I spoke to her a few weeks ago and I said ‘Pray for Jake, pray for him to come home ’ safely’,” he said.

“She said ‘I’m really worried about Jake now, Dad’.

“But then she turns around and she says ‘Don’t worry, Dad, he’ll be alright, he’ll come home’.

“It made me shed a tear.”

Greater Dandenong CIU Detective Sergeant Hayes described Jake’s disappearance as “an unusual case” and said he’d never gone missing before.

He said police had interviewed his friends and family, and Jake had not accessed his bank account.

“We’re here for you,” Rick said.

“We love you and we miss you.

We’re worried sick about you.”

Jake is described as Caucasian and 178 centimetres tall with a medium build and straight brown hair.

He was last seen wearing greencoloured jeans, a blue jumper and black runners.

Det Sgt Hayes urged anyone who saw Jake to immediately call triple zero.

Early Christmas present gives city’s Santa a boost GREATER Dandenong Council will install a giant reindeer and Santa in its new civic square as part of more extravagant Christmas decorations for this coming festive season.

Stung by criticism over last year’s effort, then-mayor Jim Memeti led the charge for boosting the decorations budget from $80,000 to $185,000.

At last Monday’s council meet-

ing, Greater Dandenong Business group manager Paul Kearsley said most of that budget had been spent.

The decorations include a ninemetre tall reindeer made from hundreds of LED lights and “dressed with a coat of crystal and sequin drops”, according to a council spokeswoman.

It will be installed on 29 Novem-

ber along with a similiarly dazzling nine-metre high Santa Claus riding a reindeer.

On 4 December, a nativity display will be installed as a window display at the civic centre.

The council will also adorn shopping precincts in Dandenong, Springvale and Noble Park with green, red and gold, featuring Christmas trees, presents and tradi-

tional doves of peace.

Roving musicians and entertainers will be bringing Christmas cheer into the streets as part of a daily events and activities program.

Carols by Candlelight - including live music, stalls and a Santa visit will be staged at Dandenong Park and simulcast on the civic square big screen on 19 December.

IT’S NONE OF OUR BUSINESS BUT…

GREATER Dandenong libraries have a new 24-7 online resource.

The Vault draws on detailed databases, encyclopaedias, leading e-journals, popular newspapers magazines and more.

Springvale and Dandenong library staff will run training and support sessions for new users over the coming month.

HOW many signatures constitute a petition?

Just one - according to City of Greater Dandenong corporate services director Mick Jaensch.

"We take a fairly liberal interpretation," he told last Monday’s council meeting when one signature was added to an online petition to retain the former Dandenong Library in Stuart Street as a community facility.

As of last week, the petition had collected 104 signatures over several months.

SANDWICHES that come with still alive moving parts are rarely popular.

The discovery of a multi-legged creepycrawly in the press gallery’s sandwiches at last Monday’s council meeting certainly made local journos squirm.

A sharp-eyed councillor John Kelly jokingly called for a council investigation into the matter.

Was City of Greater Dandenong trying to ‘bug’ the journalist table?

COUNCILLOR Peter Brown was bemused

34

days till Christmas

MAX and Karstan, from the Channel 9 reality TV series The Block, stopped into Dandenong on a 1200-kilometre, 31-day journey for Starlight Children’s Foundation.

They’re walking from Prahran, the site of The Block Glasshouse, to their home in Newcastle, New South Wales, and spent their first night at the Big4 Dandenong Tourist Park on Friday 7 November.

The newlyweds hope to raise $100 per kilometre to grant more than 18 wishes for seriously ill children across Australia.

Donate at www.thediscoverytales.com.au. when he received a council letter asking him to mow the grass on his Keysborough property, which he says is kept to a "bowling green" standard.

He told last Monday’s council meeting the one property with a grass issue was the dormant block opposite Ventura on Cheltenham Road.

Cr Brown said if newly-crowned Mayor Sean O’Reilly took a walk through the block "all you’d see is the glint of the sun on his head".

There was some debate over who had responsibility for the land - it was settled that Places Victoria was the culprit.

IN IT’S None of Our Business But... (Dandenong Journal, 10 November) it was said that more than 22,000 people a week are flocking to Dandenong Library.

I am not one of the 22,000.

Yes, it is a lovely new building and granted the old site needed upgrading but, as an older person, I find it not at all user friendly.

The biggest fault is a lack of parking space. Also, the bookshelves (fiction section) are not labelled alphabetically (or weren’t when I was there last) and this is frustrating when searching for several different authors.

I have tried parking at Dandenong Plaza and walking across but have trouble walking the distance.

I note there are a lot of interesting activities for young people which is good but I am wondering if any other older people have found a similar

problem to mine. I am wondering how many of the 22,000 would be over 60 and/or with some disability?

Naurma Dawson, via email.

THE Journal, Cameron and Casey - thankyou for highlighting making a stand against family violence (Wounds Rise To The Surface, Journal, 10 November).

Especially violence/abuse against women with disabilities.

In the past this has been a sensitive subject hidden in dark places.

It’s now a subject that needs gumboots to aid in stamping out.

Each who gains courage, voice, strength and support to change circumstances stops the bullies/abusers in our communities.

They also start the process of

being empowered in ‘not’ being a victim anymore.

Let’s stand together as voices and say ‘no’ to abuse/ violence of any kind, it is not tolerated.

‘Yes’ to the urgent need for funding and supporting women with disabilities.

Sharon Harris, via web.

SO COUNCILLOR O’Reilly, you are saying only a Labor person can be mayor in Dandenong (Backroom Moves Slammed, Journal, 10 November).

That’s unbelievable! How can any of you Labor councillors look ratepayers straight in the face?

So can someone help me with who is the next mayor in 2015 - surely the deal has been done? No wonder ratepayers have lost respect for most of you.

SOCIALLY SPEAKING

THE Journal was shocked to discover last Thursday that The Age had uncovered news of a proposed theme park for Bangholme.

We were under the impression that our front page story Chinese Cheer a month ago had already done just that.

PEOPLE paying their respects at Remembrance Day commemorations in Dandenong commented that 11 November should be a public holiday.

“It’s a day to foster peace,” one said.

SPRINGVALE Police Station is trialling an Australian-first “electronic triage” system to provide better service and save thousands of dollars on interpreter fees.

Victoria Police Deputy Commissioner Lucinda Nolan launched the pilot language kiosk last Tuesday.

She said it would be an initial contact point and presented

a list of inquiries in 12 languages.

Ms Nolan said analysis found common inquiries included reporting a traffic incident and making a firearms inquiry.

The kiosk then prints a ticket to be handed to a police officer that indicates the selected inquiry in English, effectively removing the need for a translator.

SPEAK OUT... CHALLENGE FAMILY VIOLENCE

Security in a safe place

By CASEY NEILL WELLSPRINGS for Women has been a safe place for women in need since it opened its doors in Dandenong 20 years ago.

Manager Veronica Hassett said it started as a drop-in centre with a craft group to help isolated women find social connection and education.

“They used to come in and gather and tell their stories,” she said.

“It’s just a place where they can feel safe. It’s a home away from home. You walk around here and you feel it.”

The Langhorne Street centre offers outreach services, a mentor program, recreational classes and education.

Ms Hassett said many women who turned to Wellsprings had suffered family violence.

“We’re not a counselling service,” she said.

“When people do come in we have one-on-one support.

“We listen to their story and once we’ve heard their story we guide them into the right direction and then we will refer them on for further support.”

She said volunteers supported women through the Wellsprings Home Visitation Program.

“As they build that rapport and relationship, it’s like a buddy system,” she said.

“They’ll take them to court and just be there for them to debrief and talk, but we’re not there to guide them they’ve got their counsellors there to do that.

“We’re like a friendly visit to sup-

port them on that journey.” Ms Hassett said women in abusive relationships often found it difficult to confide in friends or family.

“Sometimes with people who are close to you, you wear a different mask,” she said.

“For someone who is not that connected with you, you know they’re there to just guide you through this journey by just simply listening to your story.”

She said rarely did women walk through the door and immediately ask for family violence support.

“Women have great respect for their relationship, no matter how hard that relationship is,” she said.

“They’re not going to open up straight away, but as you journey with

them and talk to them they start trusting you and they start telling you.

“Then it’s our role to build their confidence and empower them to live their life to the fullest.

“How we do that is we give them the time.”

Ms Hassett said it could take some women a long time to open up.

“It takes them years and years to break that cycle, but you’ve got to build their confidence first,” she said.

“If we get any of those emergency cases we refer them. We put her in touch with a case worker or police.”

Ms Hassett said the White Ribbon movement meant prevention and helped restore some women’s faith in men.

“White Ribbon was started by males which is a wonderful thing,” she said.

Presentation Sister Ann Halpin founded Wellsprings for Women.

She was a City of Greater Dandenong Living Treasure and passed away in 2009 following a seven-month battle with a brain tumour.

Halpin Way in central Dandenong now bears her name. Kildare Ministries now governs the organisation.

For help or support regarding family violence call the 24-hour Women’s Domestic Violence Crisis Service Victoria (WDVCS) on 1800 015 188 or visit www.asksomeone.org.au.

Women should phone triple zero if they are in immediate danger.

By FRANK CRESIA, CEO WAVERLEY INDUSTRIES

Basic needs put lives back on track A DANDENONG networking night will help women and children rebuild their lives after family violence.

Maurice Blackburn’s annual women’s networking function at the Drum

Theatre on 8 October collected bed linen, towels and pillows.

The urgently-needed items will go to McAuley Community Services for Women.

Guests also heard from Dandenong magistrate Pauline Spencer who presented on innovative ways for dealing with family violence offenders to help break the cycle of violence.

gain everyone’s attention and I said: “Guys, I’m not happy with your sexist comments, as I have a similar aged daughter and, as a father, I wouldn’t like my daughter being talked about in that manner.

“Do you have a daughter and would you like a group of men making sexist comments and laughing at her as she walks past?”

The entire group of men went silent. The man who initiated the comment eventually said he was going to get another drink.

Once he left, the remaining men commenced talking about the conference itinerary and, sure enough, the male offender didn’t return to the group.

As men we can act in a reponsible manner without sexist comments or aggression.

We can also educate other men that sexist comments are inappropriate in today’s society.

Men should respect women and children in our community hands down.

McAuley Community Services for Women CEO Jocelyn Bignold, Maurice Blackburn’s Brooke Dellavedova, Shannan Mu and Emily Anderson with some Dandenong donations.

WHEN approached by the City of Casey to participate in the White Ribbon Challenge Family Violence program I wasn’t quite sure what was required of me, but after being exposed to the family voilence statistics, particularly those against women and children, I had no hesititation in fully commiting myself to the program.

The program has been an eyeopener and extremely beneficial.

It has equipped me with ideas and strategies to assist and reduce family violence in our community.

In our program, having healthy round table discussions among other male community leaders has given me confidence to act in a smart way.

Role-playing scenarios and using strategies to diffuse situations is a great way to build confidence as you experience it first-hand.

It wasn’t long before I used my new skills during a national conference that I attended.

I was in a large group of men talking about our industry, when one chap made a sexist comment about a young lady who was walking by.

Of the eight men in the group, six joined in the laughter and some added other sexist comments.

Once the young lady passed, she stopped and turned to look at us.

Clearly, her facial expression said it all, that she was not impressed. Highly likely she had heard one of the comments directed at her.

At this point I spoke up loudly to

DANDENONG JOURNAL

Page 10 Monday, 17 November, 2014 Advertorial

PRINCIPAL OF YELLOW BRICK ROAD DANDENONG DELWYN RAYNER, EACH WEEK SHARES A COLUMN ON WEALTH MANAGEMENT AND FINANCIAL MATTERS FOR THE JOURNAL. The Melbourne Cup decision from the Reserve Bank last week ran to form: the cash rate remains the same, meaning official interest rates have been at 2.5 per cent since August last year and standard variable mortgages can be had for less than 5 per cent.

Nothing unexpected from the RBA, but there was a remark in the Governor’s statement which sums up what is going on right now.

“Investors continue to look for higher returns in response to low rates on safe instruments.”

In other words Australians are doing what they should, and they are looking for ways in which their cash can perform better.

If you accept that the ‘safe instruments’ are cash deposits and term deposits, which attract the government guarantee but yield between 3 and 4.2 per cent, you can see why motivated investors are looking for higher returns.

Earning one per cent more than inflation is not a strong investment strategy in most people’s books.

In this environment, people are stepping up to slightly higher risk levels but with better returns.

Bonds are a natural progression from cash, usually accessed through ‘fixed interest’ fund managers. They are very stable and return somewhere between cash deposits and major ASX indices, depending on the mix of cash, government bonds and corporate bonds.

Another avenue – and slightly riskier than bonds – has been the ‘yielder’ stocks on the ASX. These include shares in the big banks, Telstra and the big miners, and yield dividends of between 5 and 6 per cent while

also giving some capital growth.

But the investment gaining attention is the purchasing of rental properties. Essentially, investors can use low-cost mortgages to buy rentable assets that return annually up to 9 per cent (rent and capital growth combined).

If the rental income doesn’t cover costs, the property can be negatively geared.

The investment property market has been strong: the total income of Melbourne rental property in the year to June 2014 was 12 per cent.

Of course, you should average your total returns over 5 or 10 years to get a sensible return, but this spike has made a lot of commentators nervous about a property ‘bubble’, fueled by low interest rates and negative gearing.

I’m not convinced there’s a big problem. For a start, as I’ve mentioned above, when interest rates are low for a long time, investors have to make their money work: that’s their job.

Secondly, the RBA has mentioned investment property in its last few statements, without raising alarm. It has even acknowledged that people are looking for better returns than cash.

Finally, the RBA is aware of the banks’ mortgage data, and has good insight into the quality of Australian home lending.

No property market is a foregone conclusion; prices go up and down as do rental yields.

But for now, the cash rate is in the right place for inflation and growth, and investors are responding exactly as you’d expect.

Visit’s theme

By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS FORMER Greater Dandenong mayor Jim Memeti is confident a China-based developer’s plans for a giant theme park in Bangholme will translate well locally after recently returning from a working trip in China.

Cr Memeti said the “idea would absolutely work” after visiting would-be developer Chongqing Meixin’s Chinese theme park on 23 October, which he stressed was an aside to a trade fair visit in the council’s sister city Xuzhou.

He said the door-manufacturing company’s chief executive Ming Xian Xia who had a “passion for theme parks”, showed them around a park

filled with roller coasters, scenic train rides, waterslides and a Ferris wheel.

The park is also flavoured with Chinese iconography such as a replica Great Wall of China. “(Mr Xia) was showing us around and said that’s what he’d like to build in Australia.

“He recently purchased a house in Melbourne and just wants to contribute to Australia.

“It was free entry, and I couldn’t believe how cheap the rides are. They’re the equivalent of 20 cents a ride.”

As reported last month by the Journal, the company has proposed building the theme park within a 43-hectare paddock at 616 Frankston-Dande-

nong Road bought by Meixin Australia for $5.335 million on 29 August.

The site is in a green-wedge zone, close to EastLink and within a buffer zone prohibiting large groups of people near a Melbourne Water sewerage treatment plant.

Cr Memeti said it was up to council planners whether Bangholme was the “right site”.

“I was just trying to represent Dandenong and get good outcomes. I will continue to promote Dandenong for businesses to have chances on the world market.

“There’s two million people in the south-east, enough people to support the park.”

Grandstand fire brings race fears A FIRE at Sandown Racecourse last Wednesday morning ignited fears for Saturday’s Guineas race day.

Melbourne Racing Club spokesman Jake Norton said the fire broke out about 11.30am and 50 people were evacuated from the track.

“It was thankfully isolated to an outdoor area that’s covered, in the grandstand, at the northern end of the grandstand,” Mr Norton said.

“It’s just an outdoor viewing deck. Thankfully it didn’t make its way indoors at all.

“It’s at the opposite of the grandstand to the mounting yard and where the action takes place.”

Nine fire trucks and crews attended and the fire was put

Fire caused damage to a small area in the Sandown grandstand.

Picture: KEITH PAKENHAM - CFA out shortly after noon.

Mr Norton said the 20-metre by 10-metre area was to be cordoned off during the Guineas, the final meet of the Melbourne Racing Club Spring Racing Carnival.

He said CFA investigators

were working to determine what caused the blaze.

“From my conversation with the police it looks as if it’s accidental,” he said.

See the Sport pages for full coverage of the Guineas.

“I still can’t speak this funny language properly but I try my best,” she said.

She defied a teacher’s advice in Year 11 to give up on chemistry and finished the year with the highest marks in her class.

Sahema has just received a high distinction for her honours research at the University of Melbourne.

She also finds purpose in remembering the eight days her father spent on a leaky boat to reach Australian shores.

“This is my home. A safe home,” she said.

“I ALWAYS dreamed that one day I would have a pen in my hand, a teacher to teach me and the right to education.”

This dream came true for Dandenong’s Sahema Saberi and she’s made the most of the opportunity.

She told last week’s South East Business Networks Women of Substance breakfast that she was born into the Hazara minority in Afghanistan.

Her father supported education for women and had to flee persecution for his views,

leaving Sahema’s 26-year-old mother to care for their six children alone.

“We did not hear from him for a long time and we didn’t know where he was,” she said.

He’d made it to Australia, but it was six years before he could return to his family living in exile in Pakistan.

He sponsored their migration and they arrived at Melbourne airport on a cold August night in 2005.

Sahema attended language school for three months then went into Year 9 at Dandenong High School with only a prima-

Refugee leaders unveiled

By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS A MIX of refugees, community leaders and councillors comprise Greater Dandenong’s Asylum Seeker and Refugee Advisory Committee, which was unveiled last week.

The 15-member committee was formed in response to the pressures on

charities, agencies and volunteers to help the growing numbers of asylum seekers living in the council area.

Two refugees, Gholam Ali Yaghobi and Gul Taniwal, were accepted on the panel.

There are also members from state bodies Monash Health and the Office of Multicultural Affairs and Citizenship.

It includes councillors Roz Blades and Matthew Kirwan, as well as representatives from the council, AMES, Asylum Seeker Resource Centre, Dandenong Community Advice Bureau, Friends of Refugees and Springvale Community Aid and Advice Bureau.

Cr Blades told a council meeting

last Monday that she was pleased with the “quality of the membership”.

“We’re the most multicultural city in Victoria. This will be very worthwhile,” she said.

The council last Monday endorsed a multi-council statement in support of asylum seekers, calling for more local resources and more timely access to

up-to-date data on asylum seeker numbers in the community.

It will deliver the statement to the Federal Government when “all other councils” have formally endorsed the statement.

Cr Blades, who instigated the campaign, said “we are the right council to do this”.

Raised spirits, nurtured souls A COMMUNITY garden is a good way to grow community spirit.

Noble Park English Language School’s Springvale campus has recently built a raised garden bed to bond and nurture its students, parents and staff.

The campus teaches English to primary-schoolaged students from migrant and refugee backgrounds, many of them fleeing from traumatic situations in their homelands.

Campus co-ordinator Georgina White said the garden - full of vegies, herbs and flowers - was inclusive to their parents and families who were often prone to social isolation.

She said the project followed on from a book launch in June, which involved parents coming into school to help their children to write stories.

“We didn’t want to lose that partnership but strengthen it,” she said.

Bunnings Springvale helped with the garden’s installation and supplied materials.

Braeside firm Contract Slitters supplied the garden bed.

Family cards on the table

By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS A WOMAN whose husband’s gambling addiction ruined her family knows only too well that the odds are stacked against compulsive gamblers - and their families.

She fronted the launch of a Vietnamese community problem gambling help service in Springvale recently, telling how her and her family’s lives were skittled by her husband’s addiction.

“The chances of winning is very rare. You will lose everything,” she warned.

“You’ll destroy your family and your life by gambling.”

She advised people to seek help after Springvale Indo-Chinese Mutual Assistance Association helped her “get my life back” step-by-step.

The association was recently awarded $100,000 from the Victorian Responsible Gambling Foundation to provide culturally appropriate, in-language gambler help services.

Through an interpreter she told how she had worked long hours to support her family - including her sick son - while her husband was unable to land a job and lingered in pokies dens.

In his gambling haze, he’d forget to pick up his children from school and poured his entire Cen-

Be Ha, Hien Tat and SICMAA counsellor Bich Gresty at the gamblers' support launch.

trelink benefit into pokies.

As the family struggled to pay rent and bills, the husband took his wife’s jewellery and bet and lost all the proceeds.

He even gambled funds that she had hidden

away to cover basic expenses.

She said she was abused several times by her husband, whose aggression and stress grew unabated. Then, as she puts it, her husband had a stroke one day and became paraplegic.

She gave up work to care for him and their children.

Out of desperation, she went to SICMAA for relief.

SICMAA president Be Ha said the agency had sought to start a gamblers’ help initiative for years.

Problem gambling had been one of the Vietnamese community’s most serious issues since pokies were unleashed in the 1990s.

SICMAA will provide trained staff to support problem gamblers and their families, and spread a preventive message about gambling’s pitfalls.

Ms Ha hopes it will give “new hope” for many Vietnamese families and addicts.

Serge Sardo, chief executive of Victorian Responsible Gambling Foundation, said the foundation had funded several groups to reach out to Chinese, Arabic and Vietnamese communities.

More than 90 per cent of problem gamblers do not seek help, compounded by the reluctance of problem gamblers from CALD communities to seek help from “mainstream” services.

He hoped the services would help people to seek help early rather than wait until “crisis point” when lives were devastated.

Odds are stacked against pokies opposition says forum

By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS COUNCILS need a “level playing field” to protect disadvantaged communities from pokies, an Enough Pokies forum was told in Dandenong last Wednesday.

The forum, which invited political candidates, was staged at Greater Dandenong Council - the most disadvantaged Melbourne metro area but home to more than 970 poker machines.

The machines raked in more than $110 million in the past financial year, equivalent to $984 for every Greater

Dandenong adult.

To illustrate the targeting of poorer communities, it was stated that less than $150 per adult was spent in Boorondara, one of Melbourne’s most affluent council areas.

Monash University researcher Charles Livingstone told the forum that councils rarely won if they spent $100,000 formally objecting to an application by a venue for more pokies.

Since 2008, the Victorian Commission for Gambling and Liquor Regulation granted 140 of 154 applications in full.

He said an incoming State Government should toughen the ‘no net detriment test’ - which was “so high you could drive several trucks underneath it”.

“The applicant (should) have to prove that there’s a net benefit not just a status quo level.”

The Journal this year reported on the VCGLR giving the go-ahead to Noble Park RSL’s application for five extra poker machines. The commission deemed the estimated extra $450,000 expenditure would have a positive “likely social impact”.

The Salvation Army's Major Brad Halse said his counsellors heard many hapless tales of “out-of-control” gambling addicts who lost their life savings and mortgages down poker machine slots.

They are also known to steal from employers to fund their addiction.

He said it was estimated that only one in 10 problem gamblers sought help.

He said in one case a gambler borrowed $10,000 from his and his fiancee’s mortgage.

“He hasn’t told his fiance about the

losses,” Major Halse said.

“The extreme worry is affecting his health.

“It can be a person just living on a pension who’s lonely or a senior executive who slips down to the club or pub at lunchtime.

“We see these people come in at the point when it’s almost too late. The only time they stop is when they run out of money.”

Greater Dandenong councillor Matthew Kirwan said the “critical issue” was what drove him “over the edge” into politics.

STATE ELECTION

Disability’s political action

By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS A DANDENONG-based disability advocacy service has said that hundreds of people with disabilities are being left waiting for individual support packages in Melbourne’s south-east.

The Disability Action Southeast group - based at the Disability Resource Centre in Dandenong - has launched a state election campaign around the “critical” issue, stating that it has never seen the situation so dire.

About 1200 people in its region are languishing on the Disability Support Register, most of them in need of an individual support package which allows people to live in the community.

The packages cover aids, equip-

ment, transport, housework help and personal care, helping people with a disability to live in the community rather than in a nursing home.

DRC advocate Katrina Newman recently unsuccessfully pleaded for a support package for women in their thirties who were afflicted with multiple sclerosis.

The client was wheelchair bound, had lost the use of her arms and her mother, who is her full-time carer, was set to be out of action for four months due to surgery.

Ms Newman said the Department of Human Services deemed the client’s situation as not urgent enough for help.

“If that client isn’t at crisis point, who is?

“I haven’t seen it so difficult to get a package in my 12 years as an advocate.

Until the past year, I’ve never had to advocate for packages.”

DAS founding member Shaunagh Stevens has waited more than a dozen years for a package.

She said that, as a result, her husband has been overwhelmed with balancing work duties and caring for her - the strain taking a toll on their relationship.

“I’ve been told I’m unlikely to get a package unless we separate.”

Ms Newman said a boost would “mean the world” to people with a disability.

She said a recent government an-

nouncement for 658 extra packages over four years “didn’t scratch the surface”.

“I find it frightening to think that these people have to wait such unsustainable lengths of time for packages of care, or until the roll-out of the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS).”

A spokeswoman for Disability Services and Reform Minister Mary Wooldridge said 2000 new packages had been delivered since 2010, taking the total to more than 15,000.

Last week the Coalition pledged $18 million for 400,000 additional hours of community-based respite for families and carers of people with a disability.

ALP disability spokeswoman Jenny Mikakos said the number of people waiting on the Disability Support Register had increased every year “under the Liberals”.

“Yet while demand is growing, fewer people received an Individual Support Package in 2013-14 compared to Labor’s last budget in 2010-’11.”

According to Department of Human Services figures, 4392 people were listed as waiting on the statewide register as of 30 June.

Nearly 3000 of them were waiting for an individual support package.

Workers to be the biggest winners BOMBARDIER Transportation’s Dandenong factory has been the venue for spirited competition lately. While its workers are engaged in a Biggest Loser weight-loss competition, so too the state election’s main rivals have made it the domain for big public transport announcements.

Last Monday Premier Denis Napthine announced a $3.9 billion public transport fleet package in front of applauding workers. As part of the package, the government’s order for 43 VLocity railcars built at the Dandenong factory up until 2017 would be boosted to 67.

The order run - which Dr Napthine claimed would have 70 per cent local content - would continue through to

2019. He said the government’s order for 50 Bombardier-built E-class trams would be boosted to 75.

Dr Napthine said the “pipeline of trams from now until 2024” would provide “job security” for the factory’s 450 employees. He said the “largest rolling stock order in 30 years” would create 3500 jobs in the manufacturing, supply and construction industries.

The new trains and trams would also carry an extra 150,000 passengers each weekday, he said.

Recently ALP leader Daniel Andrews visited the factory as he pledged to buy 30 new trains for the metropolitan network and 20 new VLocity V/Line carriages.

He invited local manufacturers such as Bombardier to bid for the tender.

In a press conference at Bombardier, Dr Napthine was less forthcoming about a $2 billlion-plus upgrade of the Dandenong rail corridor to be built by a public private partnership.

He refused to engage with questions on whether contracts had been signed with the private consortium or whether details would be released prior to the election. The project includes 25 new trains, high-capacity signalling and the removal of at least four level crossings.

Bombardier is in the running to build the 25 trains for one of the overseas consortiums that are bidding, however speculation is high that the trains could be largely built overseas.

Dr Napthine declined to say where the trains would be built.

Denis Napthine pledges job security to Bombardier workers. 130768

JEAN Hollole notched up a century last month, marking the milestone with family in Noble Park.

She celebrated her 100th birthday at Belvedere Aged Care facility where she has lived since December 2007.

Daughter Margaret Hawkins’s son travelled from Gisborne for the occasion.

“We had a lovely day,” she said.

“It was very tiring - mum was pretty exhausted.”

Margaret said her mum enjoyed receiving congratulatory letters from Queen Elizabeth, Prime Minister Tony Abbott, Opposition Leader Bill Shorten, Premier Denis Napthine and local MPs. “And Belvedere decorated everything up for us,” she said.

“They did mum proud.”

Jean was born on 30 October 1914 and had five brothers and two sisters.

“The family moved around a bit and finally settled in Mentone where Jean lived until she married Harry,” Margaret said.

The newlyweds moved to Hawthorn, where they welcomed two children - Margaret and Janet.

In 1983 they moved to Dandenong North where Jean remained until moving to Belvedere.

TITLED AND READY TO BUILD

Brad Ryan of Harcourts Narre Warren South said that land prices in the area traditionally start around $300,000 and that resales of established homes also command premium prices.

According to Brad, part of the reason for this is the reputation of the nearby schools which include Haileybury, St Francis Xavier and Nossal selective government high school – and the proximity to the freeway, train station and Berwick village.

“Many people also consider that the Narre Warren South postcode provides them with a superior long-term investment compared with property in the less established areas of Clyde and Cranbourne North,” Brad said.

“But the real attraction, in my opinion, is just the feel of the place.”

A boutique development of just 80 home sites, Water Edge is located on the north side of Glasscocks Road in Narre Warren South.

NEW HOMES & LAND

LAUNCHED IN STYLE A sophisticated, turn-key solution to modern living has arrived in Pakenham with the launch of the Urban Village precinct at Ascot, offering sleek, affordable townhomes in the centre of town priced from just $335,000.

With their modern design and prime location adjoining Ascot’s first major parkland, Ascot Park, the Urban Village precinct, is the ideal solution for everyone from first home buyers who are keen to step into the property market for an affordable price through to downsizers looking to upgrade their lifestyle for minimal fuss.

Designed by MPS Architects, this collection of turn-key townhomes offers a convenient and affordable alternative to traditional house and land packages,

taking the hassle out of what can be a daunting home-building process.

These contemporary, double-storey, three bedroom homes come complete with front and back landscaping, window coverings, reverse cycle air conditioning and floor coverings, meaning all that’s left for purchasers to do is to collect the keys and move straight in.

Ascot’s first Urban Village precinct features seven stunning townhomes which are located just across the road from Ascot Park and the future town centre, offering a direct three minute walk into central Pakenham and Pakenham Train Station.

ISPT Fund manager David McFadyen said Ascot’s first Urban Village precinct had been designed with connectivity and

functionality in mind.

“When collaborating with Creation Homes and MPS Architects we were keen to deliver a complete home solution that would take the stress out of home-hunting.

“These large three bedroom townhomes are centrally located within the development, offering direct access to a host of shopping, transport, education and community facilities, all of which are of immense benefit to a host of different purchasers.

“Inside these homes are stylish and bright, using quality finishes and materials and open-plan living to maximise livability, while outside residents are just a short walk away from all this growing township has to offer.

“Nestled behind the existing town centre

on the site of the former Pakenham Racecourse, Ascot offers a rare and unique opportunity for buyers to purchase a prime site in the middle of an established locale at entry level prices.

“With just seven townhomes available in the first collection and their prime location opposite what will be Ascot’s signature parkland, we are urging home-hunters to register their interest before they are all snapped up,” he said.

Ascot’s Urban Village precinct has now launched to the market.

For more information or register details, head to www.ascot.com.au, visit the on-site sales office located on Racecourse Road, Pakenham, or call 9684 8143.

ENZO RAIMONDO

CEO Real Estate Institute of Victoria

YOU CAN’T BEAT THE POWER OF FIRST IMPRESSIONS First impressions count and many homebuyers can be hasty when making up their minds about a property.

These decisions often start with property websites - many buyers usually begin with the online photos, with the exterior shot usually the most prominent.

The colour advertisements in local papers and affixed to real estate agency windows also catch the attention of buyers.

Next is the drive by - looking at the home’s location, street and frontage to decide whether it is worth looking inside.

So if the house lacks kerb or street appeal, it will not get past these first bases.

Yet while many sellers work hard on their home’s interior decluttering, repainting and creating a magazine-style presentation - they don’t always focus on the outside.

Before buyers can be convinced of a home’s charms and potential they have to step over the threshold.

A property that appears attractive and well-maintained from the outside will lure more potential buyers to inspect closely what it

has to offer. Websites, such as realestateview.com.au, and home renovation shows provide plenty of tips for enhancing a home.

But the basics to keep in mind include repairing and painting the gate and fences and ensuring the garden and surrounding grounds are kept tidy and welltrimmed.

Additional tasks such as painting the house and around the windows, attending to eaves and gutters, and even repainting a rusted tin roof can make a real difference.

Rendering or re-cladding can give a tired facade an instant lift, and

tuckpointing on older homes can add detail to an otherwise uninspiring brick frontage.

Other touches such as restoring wrought iron lacework can provide a striking focal point.

But before embarking on an external refurbishment, make sure any money spent will be recouped.

Your agent can advise about the level of investment that is likely to generate more buyer interest and result in a higher sale price.

Often little things can make the biggest difference - and small improvements to a home’s frontage can give it instant appeal.

Step up to our award winning Milan, voted HIA’s Best Display Home 2014.* The Milan 29 from our Aspire range has just won the 2014 HIA Victorian division Best Display Home between $250,001 – 300,000.

It’s an architect designed home ofering afordable luxury, space and light and a range of innovative features.

The sun court, for instance, actually increases the usable interior space and floods the living areas with light. Or as the judges said: “A very open home that gives the impression it is bigger than it actually is.

“Excellent workmanship, attention to detail and a feeling of spaciousness.” – HIA Judges

You can sense the diference immediately with generously proportioned spaces that flow together naturally to create vistas and extended views with picture windows usually only found in more expensive homes.

The high level of luxury inclusions also caught the eye of the judges who said the Caesarstone benches, Franke sinks and Smeg appliances “represent value for money”.

NOVEMBER 16-23, 2014

Message from the Premier This week is Fire Action Week, Victoria’s annual fire planning and preparation week.

Right now is the best time to understand your fire risk and get prepared, not when a fire starts.

Now is the time to increase your understanding of the fire risk where you live, prepare your property, and decide what you’ll do if a fire starts.

What can you do to prepare? Talk to your family about the fire risk where you live and make plans for what you’ll do on hot, dry, windy days. Check the Fire Danger Rating for your area every day and know which Fire Danger Rating is your trigger to act. Understand how to stay informed by accessing warnings and updates, and know how to use them.

Last summer, firefighters responded to more than 40,000 incidents, and 4,600 bushfires and grassfires burned across the state.

This year, the season forecast tells us that we’re facing an aboveaverage risk of bushfire and grassfire.

On hot, dry, windy days, fires can start and spread quickly. If the Fire

Danger Rating is Code Red, Extreme or Severe, you’re risking your life if you wait and see.

Leaving late means driving your family through smoke, fallen trees and powerlines, and facing the risk of being trapped or worse.

Leaving early is the safest option to protect yourself and your family.

Premier Hon Dr Denis Napthine

This week, CFA brigades around the state are opening their doors and getting out and about in their community to talk about getting ready for summer. You can check cfa.vic.gov.au/events for information on what’s happening in your local area.

For more information on how to get prepared for summer, go to emergency.vic.gov.au, or ring the Victorian Bushfire Information Line on 1800 240 667.

If you have a hearing or speech impairment, contact the Victorian Bushfire Information Line (VBIL) via the National Relay Service on 1800 555 677.

Remember, it’s up to you to take responsibility for your safety and the safety of your family.

This summer, leave and live.

The Hon Dr Denis Napthine MP Premier of Victoria

Fire Action Week Nov. 16-23 Protect your family by planning ahead this summer.

Fire Action Week is a great opportunity to gather all the information you need to prepare for this year’s ire season. Find out about FireReady meetings in your area and check CFA’s website to see if your local CFA brigade is holding an Open Day during Fire Action Week.

Remember to talk to your family about what you’re going to do on a high ire risk day. For more information about Fire Action Week and how to stay safe this ire season, visit the VicEmergency website, call 1800 240 667 or download the free FireReady app today.

Walkers cross paths ABOUT 500 people pounded the pavement in the fifth annual WalkFest.

The City of Greater Dandenong event on 31 October included three accessible walks that converged on Hemmings Park, Dandenong, for a celebration.

Free entertainment, food, drinks and activities greeted walkers, including wheelchair handball, African drumming, AFL and face painting.

The all-ability and all-ages event highlighted the health benefits of walking.

Take it to the bank

By CASEY NEILL

SPRINGVALE man James Boase was cornered into making his first blood donation.

Last week he happily made his 600th.

Mr Boase still remembers his father-in-law taking him to the blood bank in the Melbourne CBD on 28 March 1968.

“He literally dragged me in there and I guess you could say it was one of the terms and conditions of marrying his daughter,” he said.

“Things have changed. They used glass bottles to do it when I first started.

“It only takes about an hour now.

It took an hour and a half back then.

“What doesn’t change is the immense contribution that you feel. It gives you peace of mind that you’re helping people.”

Mr Boase donates plasma every fortnight.

“It’s the white blood cells. It’s used in transfusions and to stop bleeding and in burns and immune deficiencies,” he said.

A machine removes blood from the donor, spins it around to remove the plasma and pumps the rest back into the donor.

“Then it goes through another cycle until the bag is full,” Mr Boase said.

“I could virtually do it myself, now.

“On your first time it’s daunting but once you’ve done it umpteen times you get used to it. You get into a rhythm.”

On 14 November he handed over his B-positive blood for the 600th time in Mt Waverley - a blood group he shares with about 8 per cent of the population.

He shared his milestone to encourage other people to follow his lead.

“I’m asking anyone hesitating to give it a go,” he said.

“It’s only takes a small amount of time.

“And you don’t know what’s around the corner, do you?

“It’s the fear of the unknown.

Once you get over that, it’s fine.”

Mr Boase said donating blood was a good way to get a health check, including blood pressure and blood sugar levels.

He’s taken blood bank tours to see how donations are processed and compare healthy and diseased cells and even been a recipient of his own donation.

“I had a knee operation and they took my blood and then I got it back later on,” he said.

Mr Boase has had spells where he was unable to donate.

“When you have an operation you can’t donate for three months,” he said.

“But it’s just something in my life that I’ve got used to doing.”

“I just think ‘where would we be without blood donors?’

“Don’t hesitate - get in there and have a go.

“They need heaps of blood, especially at Christmas time and Easter when there’s people out on the road.”

One in 30 people give blood, but one in three people will need blood in their lifetime.

A single donation can help at least three different patients and contribute to 22 different products, including immunisations.

They fought for freedom

By CASEY NEILL DANDENONG RSL president John Wells made a plea for harmony at last week’s Remembrance Day service.

A crowd assembled at the Pillars of Freedom on Clow Street, Dandenong, on 11 November for an 11am minute’s silence bookended by The Last Post and Reveille.

In light of recent tensions with the Muslim community, Mr Wells said the Anzacs would have said “give the poor buggers a go. Let’s see how good they really are”.

“They died for living in freedom,” he said.

“Remember that the blokes were people with values. Anzac values. Australian values.”

He said the spirit of a fair go was among them.

“Nowhere is it more relevant than in Dandenong today,” he said.

Sub-branch secretary Judy Murdoch said the service was deliberately kept brief and very simple “as this is a day of solemn remembrance”.

She lamented the absence of local Australian Army Cadets, following a ban on the recruits wearing their uniforms in public amid fears for their safety.

“We do look a little bare around the cenotaph because

we haven’t got our flag party,” Ms Murdoch said.

“They were coming. They were stopped.”

Dandenong High School students Brandon and Rebecca read The Ode for the Fallen and St James’ Anglican Church’s Reverend Jeffrey Parker offered a prayer.

“We remember all who have died from every faith; those who sacrificed,” he said.

New City of Greater Dandenong mayor Sean O’Reilly kept his speech short and sweet, bestowing upon the fallen the city’s deepest gratitude.

“Lest We Forget,” he said.

Wellsprings for Women’s Crafty Connections group for women with special needs is making poppies from red and black wool and felt.

They’ll join a display at Federation Square next year to mark the Anzac Centenary.

Organisers have collected 50,000 poppies so far and are hoping to reach 100,000.

“We’re going to make as many as we can,” craft leader Rita Pool said.

“It’s quite addictive once people buy their ball of wool.

“You can make about 15 from one ball.”

BUSINESS SOUTH-EAST

Invitation to feel valued

By CASEY NEILL

A CHANCE chat in a Berwick chicken shop led Chisholm CEO Maria Peters into TAFE. She told last week’s South East Business Networks’ (SEBN) Women of Substance breakfast that she was a secondary school English teacher on maternity leave when the encounter occurred in 1989.

The woman knew Ms Peters’s husband as a good teacher, assumed she would be too and offered her a job.

She initially planned to learn from TAFE and then return to high school.

“It’s in my blood now,” she said.

Sahema Saberi and Margo Hartley were the other guest speakers at the event at Highways in Springvale on Thursday 13 November.

“I wish I was more like you,” MC Jamie Sturgess said to the trio after the presentations.

Sahema arrived in Australia from Afghanistan in 2005 aged 14 with little education.

She recently completed an honours degree at the University of Melbourne.

This year Ms Hartley received a Medal of the Order of Australia for services to the community.

She has lived and worked in Dandenong since she was a little girl and was shy until she was asked to be 9th Dandenong Cubs Leader.

“That invitation made me feel valued,” she said.

“The promise I made to do my best is one I’ve kept ever since.”

Ms Hartley’s husband Tom started Hilton Manufacturing in 1976 in a tin shed with three employees.

He worked 7am to midnight while Ms Hartley cared for young sons Todd and Mark.

Hilton now has more than 200 staff

Speakers Maria Peters, Margo Hartley and Sahema Saberi. 130703 from 25 nationalities. They’re Ms Hartley’s extended family.

She told the breakfast about a “guy from the country” who asked for a job.

His dad had worked with the company so the Hartleys were happy to offer him extra support - an apartment, furniture, even sending his supervisor to get him out of bed when he failed to show up.

“Simple acts of care can indeed change lives,” she said.

“He now owns a signwriting business.”

Ms Hartley fund-raises for Dandenong Hospital and Mercy Ships and last year opened support and empowerment centre Brand New Day. She devotes her time to helping the isolated and needy, “those who never seem to get a break”, and refugees and asylum seekers who are trying to assimilate.

Ms Hartley said people might forget what someone said or did.

“But people will never forget how you made them feel,” she said.

Ms Peters became the Chisholm

CEO in April 2010. The TAFE sector was turned on its head just four weeks later.

“We lost $30 million out of a $140 million business in six months,” she said.

“We’ve been to hell and back the past four years.

“If I’d had a crystal ball I might have reconsidered.”

She made the decision to cut 230plus jobs from 1400, deciding one fell swoop was preferable to “thousands of little cuts”.

“I knew I wanted Chisholm to be there in years to come.”

Ongoing funding battles have made it hard to plan for the future but Ms Peters learnt to seek advice and support while staying true to her vision.

She also reminds herself that she’s only a custodian - one hoping to leave the place in better shape than when she arrived.

“It’s not about you,” she said.

“I love and feel passionate about Chisholm.”

Centre’s strength to reach out WAVERLEY Gardens was recently sold and is now under new management.

Global property services firm Jones Lang LaSalle has taken control of the centre, which has approximately 100 speciality retailers including all the major banks as well as Coles, Woolworth’s, Aldi, Target and Big W. New centre manager Tim Grigg said he was excited to be working alongside the new owners to reinvigorate the shopping centre.

“Our plans aim to focus on the strengths of the centre with the emphasis focused on embracing the local community,” Mr Grigg said.

“The centre needs to meet the

needs of the locals by becoming the community hub and satisfying the ever-increasing demand for convenience.

“The Waverley Gardens customer shopping experience will also be enhanced by the inclusion of marketing promotions and events tailored to reward shoppers, along with the upgrade of internal furnishings.

“The team at Waverley Gardens Shopping Centre is looking forward to building long-lasting relationships with the community and being regarded as the most convenient local shopping centre for all essential needs under one roof,” he said.

New centre manager Tim Grigg chats to Tracey and her son Koah. 130378

Traders demand political will for Little India precinct

By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS EMBATTLED Little India traders have demanded the Labor Party’s proposed showcase Indian cultural precinct be set in Dandenong.

During a grilling by traders and Indian media recently, Opposition planning spokesman Brian Tee refused to guarantee the precinct would be set in the 20-year-old south Asian-themed shopping strip despite its “compelling case”.

“There’s no three or four spaces we want to pick from.

“It’s about getting that consultation going, having a look at what’s out there and having that potential to grow - and this space has its advantages.”

Under questioning at the meeting

at Roshan’s Fashions in Foster Street, Mr Tee made some concessions such as “clearly this is one of the ideal locations... obviously this area is very competitive... you need an existing base to start with and a base to grow”.

He also criticised Places Victoria for its lack of empathy for the traders’ plight during street works in 2010 and 2011.

Mr Tee - who has supported traders’ protests to ‘save Little India’ - described the proposed precinct as something that would rival Lygon Street.

He envisaged it as an area for festivals that would be marketed as a tourist attraction and a celebration of Indian culture - but a place where “the community, more broadly” would savour the experience.

The precinct’s composition was “speculative”, he said.

It would be subject to talks with Indian community leaders, though there “clearly will be a retail aspect”, Mr Tee said.

He also hinted that it could hitch onto the “great success with Bollywood films”.

“We want to make sure we get this right.

“The crucial issue is where we will locate it. I can’t answer that today.”

He cited the “disadvantages, closing off of roads, the lack of respect... and the impact on people”.

“I do think Places Victoria has a lot to answer for,” he said.

Mr Tee acknowledged that traders

had suffered financially and emotionally after being treated “badly” by Places Victoria during the Revitalising Central Dandenong project.

He cited the “disadvantages, closing off of roads, the lack of respect... and the impact on people”.

(If an ALP government was elected) “you would have a different approach from Places Victoria... I can guarantee you.”

Questions from the floor described traders being hospitalised due to their businesses being “ruined” as roads were closed and buildings demolished in 2010 and 2011.

Shop-owner Kaushaliya Vaghela questioned Mr Tee on how building the precinct outside of Dandenong would benefit Little India traders.

She told the Journal that traders would revive protesting on parliament’s steps if they were “let down”.

Lawyer Kusum Vaghela likened resiting the precinct to “demolishing a heritage building and building it somewhere else”.

Grocer and cafe owner Steven Khan unsuccessfully appealed to Mr Tee for more compensation for traders on top of the six-months rent free which had already been provided by the State Government.

Mr Khan said he had been debt-free before the works and boasted of not “owing money to anyone”.

However, he said the works had caused him to become more than $60,000 in debt because of lost trade.

SPORT

Au Revoir to the Zipping THE international visitors have dominated this spring and that continued on Saturday when the Andre Fabre-trained, Au Revoir won the $351,000 Group 2 weight-for-age Deadly Designs Zipping Classic (2400 metres) on the Sportingbet Park, Sandown Hillside track.

The internationals had swept all before them with the ill-fated Japanese horse, Admire Rakti, winning the Crown Golden Ale Caulfield Cup. The Irish-trained, Adelaide, thrashed the opposition in the Cox Plate and then the Germans stepped up and won the Melbourne Cup with Protectionist. Now the fourth international has won a major event and Au Revoir represented France.

With the exception of Admire Rakti they will all remain here to be prepared by local trainers with Au Revoir joining the Peter Moody stables, Adelaide joining Chris Waller and Protectionist, Kris Lees. Owned by OTI Racing, managing owner Terry Henderson, was thrilled with the

victory and confirmed that the Group 1 Hong Kong Vase (2400 metres) at Sha Tin in December is likely to be the next port of call for Au Revoir. He added that the horse will be given a light autumn before planning for next spring with the Melbourne Cup the main target.

Au Revoir, ridden by Kerrin McEvoy, showed great fight at the finish to win by 0.2 lengths from Epingle, who was also second last year, with Prince of Penzance 2.45 lengths third.

After mixed fortunes this spring it was a good day for OTI Racing making it race to race doubles after previously winning the $150,000 Listed Sportingbet Sandown Cup (3200 metres) with Renew. It was a great day for young Ballarat trainer, Archie Alexander, who has only had his licence a few months. He and OTI Racing now have another horse qualified for next year’s Melbourne Cup. With Chris Symons in the saddle,

Kerrin McEvoy left his run late as Au Revior sneaks past Epingle to win the Zipping Classic. 130849

Box seat

Renew raced up near the pace early but was then shuffled back and came with a powerful run in the straight to score by 0.2 lengths from Like a Carousel, also second last year, with Shoreham 1.95 lengths away third. Originally from England it was Renew’s fourth start and first win here.

Co-trainers, David Hayes and his nephew Tom Dabernig secured the trainers division of the Spring Championship when Petrology scored an outstanding win in the Group-2 $351,000 Sportingbet Sandown Guineas (1600 metres).

The Sandown Guineas was the middle leg of a winning treble for David Hayes and Tom Dabernig having earlier won the $120,000 Listed City of Greater Dandenong Stakes (1400 metres) with Wawail and then added the $150,000 Kevin Heffernan Stakes (1300 metres) with Fast ‘N’ Rocking. The latter was ridden by Dwayne Dunn and the win secured for him the jockeys’ division of the Spring Championship. His charity partner is Beyond Blue.

By MICHAEL FLOYD DARREN McDonald has a record fourth TAB Melbourne Cup at his mercy following the box draw for the world’s richest greyhound race at Sandown Park this afternoon.

After drawing the cherished box 1, McDonald’s Perth Cup winner Keybow has been installed a $2.40 favourite by tab.com.au. A win in Friday’s $600,000 final would elevate Keybow’s prize money to a staggering $763,635, eclipsing the recently retired Xylia Allen’s Australian record.

McDonald’s second runner, Awesome Project was installed a $10 chance despite have been placed in all of his 13 starts at Sandown Park, including eight wins.

The least experienced chaser in the final, the New Zealand bred Above All, has been rated the biggest threat to Keybow after drawing favourably in box 3. Dyna Villa is also on the second line of betting after drawing box 8. The youngest greyhound in the field, Dyna Villa is undefeated in seven starts at Sandown Park, and will be aiming to give owner Brendan Wheeler a second victory in the race.

New South Wales will be rallying behind its National Sprint Champion Chica Destacada after drawing box 2. The tenacious chaser has been impressive at both of her Sandown Park starts and looks well boxed in the final.

SPORT DANDENONG DISTRICT CRICKET ASSOCIATION - Round 4 (day 1)

Looks like a Matt finish

By JARROD POTTER Premier Cricket - Round 7 (day 1)

Holding on against a Cobra barrage, Buckley Ridges’ import Anuj Dal excelled en route to 94 not out. 130850

Heinz paceman Justin Davis gets a well-earned pat on the head after Pictures: JARROD POTTER claiming his first wicket. 130850

An ace up the sleeve

By JARROD POTTER FIGHTING back from the depths of despair, Buckley Ridges (181) now sit in the driver’s seat following a collapse from Heinz Southern Districts (7/111).

The opening bowling trio - Chad Van Estrop (4/38), Justin Davis (2/15) and Michael Davies (1/34) - struck time-after-time against the enfeebled Buckley Ridges’ top order.

Van Estrop was the pick of the bowlers and got himself on a hat-trick after the expert work of wicketkeeper Brodie Yapp found Jayson Hobbs (0) outside his crease with a leg-side stumping. While the hat-trick ball just fell short of the ring field, Van Estrop continued to torment the Cobras both with the ball and his fledgling Movember moustache.

When the experience of Matt Goodwright (1) and Mick Cronin (6) came and went, they were the tail end of a six-wicket onslaught from Heinz.

You could have named your price on a Buckley Ridges’ victory when the side teetered to 7/57, but the Ridges had one last ace up their sleeve - Nottinghamshire import Anuj Dal (94 not out).

Staging one of the finest British rescue efforts, Dal excelled while others failed around him. Turning the attack back on the Cobras he finally found some willing aid via the lower-order as Lucas Hoogenboom (30) - to notch an 83-run partnership - and Hussain Ali (12) stuck fast to help Dal post his first half-ton in DDCA Turf 1.

In response Heinz started strongly but crumbled under pressure from Goodwright (3/0) and Ali (2/18).

Ali found the crucial scalp of Adam Semmens (41) late in the day to take the iniaitive away from the Cobras and leave the visitors needing 71 for first innings points.

LYNDALE v CRANBOURNE THE Barry Powell Reserve minefield was commissioned for another season as Lyndale (107) and Cranbourne (6/93) were razed by the bowlers. Conal Ranatunga (31) held up the top order while captain Ciaron Connolly (21 not out) kept the side going from the tail. In between, Lyndale’s batting effort was lacklustre as Eagles’ duo Steve Spoljaric (4/39) - with 11 maidens - and Te Ahu Davis (3/35) laid siege to all that crossed paths. Leaving a meagre total to defend, the Lyndale bowlers stood up where the batsmen failed as Ranatunga (3/27) showed his all-round chops to push Cranbourne to six-down. Ben Maroney (57 not out) - in a swashbuckling effort with six boundaries and two sixes - led the chase and will need to stick around to give the Eagles assurance of reaching the tally.

BERWICK v DANDENONG WEST BERWICK (7/107) took first innings points on day one as Dandenong West (107) failed to stick around. Cory Bevan claimed four wickets to lead the Bears through the Bulls’ order. Adam Mason (27) was the best of the Bulls along with keeper Matthew Collett (21). The Bulls’ bowling was barraged by Berwick as Peter Atkinson (4/52)

led the initiative.

HALLAM KALORA PK v PARKFIELD RHYS Serpanchy (93) took the Bears (0/2) by storm on day one as Hallam Kalora Park (225) mustered an impressive tally. The best efforts of Shane Bell (4/46), the miserly Nilochana Perera (2/16 off 16 overs) - from Sri Lanka Air Force Sports Club - and Travis D’Souza (2/66) weren’t enough to curtail Serpanchy’s rampage.

NORTH DANDENONG v COOMOORA A NORTH Dandenong (4/88) team effort derailed Coomoora (115).

Chipping in to knock off the Kangaroos, North’s trio Dean Gunawardana (2/13), Michael De Kauwe (2/13) and Liam Dudding (2/17) took their toll on the opposition.

In defence, Lance Baptist (42) and Luke Wenke (36) held on bravely while wickets fell around them.

The North Dandenong response almost claimed first innings points by stumps as Craig Gunawardana (47 not out) took the home side within 30 runs of victory by day’s completion.

SPRINGVALE STH v MORDIALLOC SPRINGVALE South’s (0/16) spin/pace duo Ruwanta Kellepotha (5/76) and Jarrod Armitage (4/52) fought earnestly to restrict a power-packed Mordialloc (202).

Taking the majority of the bowling initiative alongside Yoshan Kumara (0/27), the Bloods could not stem the run flow from the visitors. At day’s end Mordialloc were 202 off 72.5 overs.

Note: * - not out. cc - compulsory closure. dec - declared.

CHASED from the crease by St Kilda’s (3/122) star all-rounder Matt Chasemore, Dandenong (128) was all but beaten on the first innings in a lacklustre display at the Junction Oval.

The former Panther showed the form that earned him equal second in the Ryder Medal tally last season, as Chasemore ran through Dandenong’s top order en route to record his first five-for with St Kilda off figures of 5/21.

Tom Donnell (34) tried to emulate his form from last round against Frankston Peninsula, but succumbed to a straightener from Lachlan Graf (2/37). Donnell’s dismissal at 4/53 left the side struggling before the next wave of Panthers’ persistence began via James Nanopoulos (36). The crafty allrounder - coming off career best figures of 6/28 against the Heat - was left to anchor the lower order as he added 31 with captain Dan Doran (13) to give the total some character.

Justin Butterfield (11 not out) would hold on at the death to keep Dandenong at the crease, but lost the 10th man as Matt Willcocks (1) was run out. St Kilda needs seven runs for first innings points as Jackson Cooper (41) and Josh Manning (34) took charge of the attack.

VSDCA South East 1st XI - Round 4 (day 2) ENDEAVOUR Hills (279) had to toil in pursuit of a solid Ormond (194) target, but the efforts of Zach Allen (89), Ben Swift (71) and captain Chris Periera (41) shone through in the Eagles’ triumph.

The Eagles had to endeavour as strong innings up-and-down the order set up the thrilling run chase at Sydney Pargeter Reserve.

From the top of the order, Allen and Swift charged the run-rate along with a 56-run partnership for the third wicket. In five innings this season, Allen has found his way to the half-ton three times and has been the lynchpin at the top of the Eagles’ order and his form earned him a place in the Victorian under-19 squad.

Swift was left stranded at the other end by the Eagles’ middle order - falling from 2/150 to 7/173 in rapid succession - and while the chase looked a challenge, Swift held on to guide the Eagles past the required target in league with Alastair Christy. A solid captain’s innings from number 10 Pereira (41) pushed the home side well beyond the visitors, capping off an impressive match with his 5/31 in the Ormond batting innings.

Endeavour Hills sits third on the ladder and faces Elsternwick in a two-dayer starting on Saturday.

Despite a gutsy all-round performance from Mevan Fernando - snaring a fivewicket haul and belting his way to a strong half-century - Noble Park (195) fell in their chase against Kingston Saints (219). The loss leaves Noble Park eighth on the ladder before its two-day clash with Caulfield at home. (No second day scores available.)

Split down the middle On the lookout for Pirates EASTWARD bound go Dandenong City and Springvale White Eagles as Football Federation Victoria (FFV) announce a geographic split for the National Premier Leagues (NPL) Victoria 1 competition in 2015.

With the introduction of Murray United, Nunawading City, Eastern Lions, Moreland City, Melbourne Victory Youth and Melbourne City Youth to the NPL 1 competition, the 20-team NPL 1 has been split into two geographical conferences - East and West.

Dandenong City and Springvale White Eagles will be in the 10-team East conference with both conferences comprising two regional teams, one National Youth League team, and one 2014 State League 1 champion.

The top six NPL teams at the conclusion of the home-and-away season will play a finals’ series commencing 22 August.

The top team of each NPL 1 conference will contend the NPL 1 Grand Final on September 20, with the runner-up of each NPL 1 conference to play off for the chance to come up against the 12th-placed NPL team for a spot in the NPL 2016.

Round 1 of the NPL and NPL 1 2015 senior leagues will begin on the weekend of 21-22 February while the junior NPL leagues - also split into two geographical conferences which will see all teams play at least 30 matches throughout the season - will commence on March 15 (Eastern conference) and March 22 (Western conference).

FFV’S Head of NPL and Women’s Premier League Liam Bentley explained the reasons behind the new structures as necessary to even out the leagues in regards to strength, travel distance and creating some balance.

“We believe this structure (NPL 1) will provide the most geographically local leagues within reason, as well as an even balance of competition,” Bentley said.

2015 FFV NPL LEAGUE STRUCTURES NPL: Avondale Heights (promoted), Bentleigh Greens, Dandenong Thunder, Green Gully, Heidelberg United, Hume City, Melbourne Knights, North Geelong Warriors (promoted), Northcote City, Oakleigh Cannons, Pascoe Vale, Port Melbourne Sharks, South Melbourne, Werribee City.

NPL 1 East: Box Hill United, Dandenong City, Eastern Lions (new), Goulburn Valley Suns (relegated from NPL), Kingston City, Melbourne Victory Youth (new), Murray United (new), Nunawading City (new), Richmond, Springvale White Eagles.

PS4 NPL Juniors East: Bentleigh Greens, Box Hill United, Dandenong City, Dandenong Thunder, Eastern Lions, Goulburn Valley Suns, Heidelberg United, Kingston City, Murray United, FC Bulleen Lions, Victorian National Training Centre, Nunawading City, Oakleigh Cannons, Port Melbourne Sharks, Richmond, South Melbourne, Springvale White Eagles.

By JARROD POTTER PARKMORE Pirates’ Junior Football Club will set sail towards 2015 with a burgeoning line-up of at least eight teams and for the first time, a Youth Girls’ team.

With teams in under-nine, 10, 11, 12, 13 and 15, along with Premier under-17 divisions are set to compete in next year’s South East Juniors competition.

Parkmore has grown rapidly in previous years and has decided to branch out into Youth Girls for the first time next season.

Parkmore president Michael Palma said the move to start up the first Youth Girls team club in the City of Greater Dandenong was to keep a trio of devoted Pirates juniors at the club after they reached the girls’ cut-off age, in boys’ football, of 14 years of age.

“We had three girls playing our under-14s and as you know the girls have to stop playing boys’ footy at under-14 level and the girls were reluctantly going to be going,” Palma said.

“We didn’t want that as they wanted to stay at the club and had been with us for a long time.

“So we said ‘ok girls, with your help we’ll just try and get the team together’ and the girls have started asking their friends.

“At the moment without even going out there too much there are eight or nine girls that we’re aware of that already have put their hand up.”

The club is hosting an information night on Monday 24 November and is encouraging players from all backgrounds and with all levels of experience to come along and join up.

Parkmore is also asking for expressions of interest in the development of an under-12 girls’ football team in complement to the 13 to 18 year-old Youth Girls team.

Parkmore Pirates’ footballers April Sheahan (left) and Karina Diaz (right) are on the lookout for players to join the newly formed Parkmore Youth Picture: MORGAN HANCOCK Girls football team. 130852 The information night will be held at Wachter Reserve Hall, Bloomfield Road Keysborough, from 7pm.

More information is available by contacting the club at youthgirls.parkmore@hotmail.com.

VW POLO’S styling is neat and tidy, with revisions to the front and rear that see it with slightly sharper lines.

New wheel designs are part of the updated shape and some extra colours have been added to the body and trim brochures.

The interior is simple and functional, with instruments that are easy to see and controls that fall easily to hand. The little Volkswagen’s looks are likely to remain timeless, something that usually helps resale values.

The biggest change to the MY15 Volkswagen Polo is the introduction of two versions of the 1.2-litre, four-cylinder, turbo-petrol engine we have come to love in other recent Volkswagens.

Volkswagen Polo handles in a dynamic European fashion, something that gives it a handy edge over its European rivals.

It corners at much higher speeds than are likely to be attempted by most owners.

Its solid feel and high quality of finish really appealed to all who travelled in it during our week’s road testing.
