Men and women of steel came from far and wide, on Saturday 15 February, to show what they’re made of at the first Southern Peninsula Strong Man and Woman Challenge. The competition was held at Longbeach Mall in Sun Valley.

“We wanted to bring awareness of the sport to the southern peninsula, as we normally host most of the competitions in the northern suburbs,” said Andre Engelbrecht, one of the organisers.

The winners of the competition in the amateur category were Faith Totiyana and Jaco Schoonwinkel. The winners in the novice category were Lientjie Fourie and Reinu Kleyn. The next competition will be held on Saturday 21 March at Soneike Mall. Pictured is Nico Opperman who came from Gauteng to compete. PHOTO: RACINE ED-

Efforts to end dumping NETTALIE VILJOEN

A

lthough inroads have been made in curbing illegal dumping since the launch of mayor Dan Plato’s Keep Cape Town Clean campaign in March last year, the war is far from over.

On Thursday 6 February, Plato restarted his campaign in Fisantekraal to educate communities about the importance of keeping neighbourhoods clean. He said while he was glad about organisations and residents who carried out clean-ups in communities, he had noticed that some sites had returned to a filthy state.

“I encourage residents to not litter and also urge members of the public to report ille-

gal dumping when they see it. Our solid waste staff work hard to keep areas clean, but we also need your support,” Plato said.

The department of solid waste spends R340 million per annum removing illegal dumping throughout the city. Since July last year, the Wynberg Improvement District (WID) – in partnership with the City of Cape Town and its solid waste law enforcement department – has conducted two awareness campaigns in the Wynberg CBD. “Several businesses have been issued with compliance notices. Although matters are improving, dumping remains a problem that we continue to address,” says Gene Lohrentz, CEO of Geocentric – the management company of WID. In the past seven months, WID

has recorded 124 incidents of illegal dumping. In Lohrentz’s experience, offenders seem to target cul-de-sac, alleyways and areas close to and on the railway corridor. Public and private open land also end up being impromptu dumping sites.

He says the extent of the refuse dumped ranges from just a few cardboard boxes and bags of household garbage to much larger quantities.

“Dumping is, in principle, the same as illegal graffiti ‘tagging’ – if you leave it there for longer than 12 to 24 hours it sends a signal that it is ‘okay’ to dump more rubbish there.

Our motto is to remove all illegal dumping as soon as possible to prevent it from becoming an ‘invitation’ to others to dump litter

at the same spot,” he says.

Lohrentz claims businesses that do not follow the by-laws and policies of the City in terms of waste management are among the main offenders. According to the City’s bylaws, every business and property must have a waste management process – more so businesses that must either make use of the City-provided services and have a private service provider to perform waste removal from their premises.

“We find many businesses – large and small – either have no or inadequate waste management facilities, including the number of wheelie bins or waste containers that can adequately serve their needs.”.

hile the tourist-attracting Simon’s Town African penguin population may be one of the most stable at present, the aquatic bird is still under huge threat of extinction with less than 3% of its original population remaining.

Marian Nieuwoudt, the City’s Mayco member for spatial planning and environment, says the African penguin population has been steadily declining, with only 1 000 breeding pairs left on the Simon’s Town coastline.

“They are listed as endangered by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN).”

Contributing to the decline are a number of factors, including reduced food sources due to overfishing, habitat destruction, pollution, oil spills and chronic oiling, disturbances, and the birds’ introduced and natural predators.

Tourists and locals looking to have a moment with the birds also affect their habits and can prevent them from reproducing.

“Penguins are susceptible to disturbance, especially during breeding. The peak season is January to March and molting season is from October to December. These seasons

FROM PAGE 1 As a result, he says, waste is dumped on the street – usually late at night or early in the morning – with the expectation that it will be collected.

generally overlap with the peak tourism seasons in Cape Town,” explains Nieuwoudt “Penguins in molt are unable to go to sea for about 30 days as they replace their feathers. At this time, if they are disturbed and forced into the water, they are at risk of dying from exposure.”

In addition, disturbances can prevent the penguins from returning to their nests, affecting the survival of their eggs or chicks as they become susceptible to attacks from predators.

According to Nieuwoudt, the City of Cape Town and Table Mountain National Park (TMNP) have embarked on a project to manage the African penguin population in a holistic manner in Simon’s Town.

“To achieve this, we have partnered with the Southern African Foundation for the Conservation of Coastal Birds (Sanccob) and the Cape Town Environmental Education Trust (CTEET) to employ penguin rangers,” she says.

The rangers monitor the penguins daily; rescue sick or injured birds, eggs or chicks, stabilising them to be transported to the Sanccob rehabilitation facility in Table View; and remove penguins from areas where they may be at risk, for example, Main Road.

According to the City’s records, in 2018 Sanccob had an 85% success rate in rehabilitating and returning birds to the wild.

This year they have started a new project with the Dyer Island Conservation Trust, the Institute for Maritime Technology (IMT) and their project partners to install and test new artificial nest boxes.

“Over the next few years, the penguin rangers will monitor these boxes and record the breeding success rate of penguins utilising the boxes.”

Nieuwoudt offers visitors to Boulders Beach some tips to help conserve the African penguin population: . Visitors, who approach birds too closely, will see them turning their heads. What is often associated with “cuteness”, is, in fact, a sign of distress. . Visitors should be respectful to the penguins’ territories and keep their distance at all times. Taking a selfie with a penguin is not cool. . Residents should keep their dogs on a leash and should respect areas were dogs are not permitted. . Be a responsible visitor and tread lightly in areas penguins inhabit.

V Visitors who wish to assist with penguin conservation projects can donate to Sanccob or volunteer at its seabird rehabilitation centre.

bags) are stacked at strategic locations for pick-up.

“We have found that these locations become an invitation for others to ‘add’ their litter to the heap or for bin-scratchers to tear open the bags,” Lohrentz says.

To prevent this, WID now collects all these bags off the streets, three times per day. The solid waste department then collects the bags from WID. All business and property owners are

urged to make sure they have a proper waste management plan in place and that they responsibly dispose of their waste.

“This includes waste minimisation through recycling, having enough wheelie bins for the amount of waste you generate and if your bins are broken or have gone missing, you can report this to the City and secure new or additional bins,” he says.

Liz Brunette, councillor for ward 62, says refuse dumped illegally degrades residential areas. She says she receives about two to three complaints via email per month.

However, she says it is best if residents log a service request directly.

“I encourage residents to log service requests for almost everything,” says Brunette.

Faults and service requests can be reported using the following options: . The City’s service requests website www.eservices1.capetown.gov.za . Email contactUS@capetown.gov.za; . SMS 31373 (no more than 160 characters); or . The City’s general call centre on 086 010 3089.

According to a statement released by the City, vehicles used in illegal dumping can be confiscated and a release fee of nearly R16 000 will be charged, over-and-above the fines issued for dumping.

Residents who have a culprit’s vehicle registration number or can identify him or her, can call 021 400 6157 or email solidwaste.bylaw@capetown.gov.za.

HOUT BAY

Fisherwomen cry foul NETTALIE VILJOEN

W

hile last year’s announcement by the minister of agriculture, forestry and fisheries, Barbara Creecy – that small-scale fishing rights would be allocated by December 2019 – was good news for the Hangberg fishers who had qualified, for others it started a countdown that will end in them losing their interim relief fishing rights.

For the past 13 years, the national department of agriculture, forestry and fisheries (Daff) has granted interim fishing rights to just over 90 people living in Hangberg while the process to implement small-scale fishing rights were being refined. Most of the people who were on the interim relief list did not qualify for small-scale fishing rights.

According to Beatrice Yon, the chair of the First Indigenous Women group in Hangberg, of the 22 women who were on the interim relief list, not one of them were granted small-scale fishing rights.

This season – the 14th – interim fishing rights and small scale fishing rights are running concurrently but once the small-scale fishing rights are fully implemented in the Western Cape, interim relief will fall away.

When this happens, many families will be left without an income.

Yon says despite the devastating financial blow, it’s also a huge setback for transformation in the industry. “For the past 13 years, we have fought for our rights as women in the fishing industry and to take it forward.

Now the role we played all these years is not even being recognised.”

The small-scale fisheries policy places emphasis on the need to recognise traditional fishers according to an agreed upon set of criteria. In addition, it also recognises and

promotes the inclusion of women, youth and people living with disability.

According to Albi Modise, chief director of communications at Daff, of the fishers listed on the 2019/2020 small scale fishing rights list for Hangberg, 10 are women.

Yon says she only knows of four women on the Hangberg list. “Of them, none were on the interim relief list and one, Vicky Holloway, has passed away,” she says.

Yon claims that at various meetings through the years, Daff representatives told the women on the interim relief list they would automatically move to the small-scale list once it had been implemented.

Modise, however, says this is not so.

“According to the amended Marine Living Resources Act (MLRA) and the promulgated regulations, a small-scale fisher has to be verified and declared as such based on the legal framework. Hence, no individual can automatically become a small-scale fisher without being declared through the legally prescribed process,” he says.

The verification process, which the fisher-

ies branch conducted during 2018, has been widely criticised by small-scale fishers throughout the Western Cape.

Yon claims she was appointed as a verifier but on the day when the process took place, she was told to leave by a Daff official. “The women fishers were not fairly represented,” she claims.

Modise says steps were taken to ensure the verification process was fair.

“The department appointed an independent service provider to conduct the registration and verification process, with Daff providing an oversight role at every registration station.”

He says Daff officials were stationed in every community during the registration and appeals period to assist applicants with the process and that various guiding documents were developed.

Catch-all stations were also set up for any person who would have missed the day Daff visited his or her community.

“The provisional list of successful smallscale fishers was signed off by the deputy

director-general as the delegated authority and the final list was signed off by the minister as the delegated authority in terms of the Act,” says Modise.

Creecy instructed the department to implement an independent audit into the verification process in October last year. The purpose of the audit was to establish who was included and who was excluded from the Western Cape small-scale fishers; what verification process was followed; whether this process was consistently applied and whether the minister must take remedial action with regards to the existing list. “The draft audit report is in the process of being signed off for the minister’s consideration,” says Modise.

At the Hout Bay Fisheries Stakeholders meeting last year (People’s Post, “Fishers voices heard, 15 October 2019), Creecy said the application process would be reopened in 2021.

In the meantime, Modise said people who did not meet the five qualifying criteria, will have an opportunity to form part of the smallscale fishing cooperatives as employees or to be included into the cooperative once the process for cooperatives to take in new members is open.

WYNBERG EAST

Association digs in heels NETTALIE VILJOEN

W

ynberg East Civic Association’s (Weca) demand for copies of documentation pertaining to the administration of the Wynberg Youth Centre has gone unanswered. On Thursday 30 January, representatives of Weca hand-delivered copies of a letter to the board members of the nonprofit organisation (NPO) responsible for the management of the youth centre in Innis Road.

In the letter, Weca asked for copies of the minutes of all the Wynberg Youth Centre’s annual general meetings and attendance registers since 2013; copies of the audited financial statements since 2013; a copy of the decision to sell the Wynberg Youth Centre and the attendance register of those who were present; as well as a list of all the members of the NPO to be handed over within seven days.

Yunus Karriem, acting chair of Weca, says the letter followed unsuccessful attempts to engage with the board after the property was listed for sale online at the beginning of January.

“This decision (to sell the youth centre) is not in the best interests of the community of Wynberg,” says Karriem.

He says all of these documents fall in the public domain. “We are in the process of engaging with attorneys to determine the cost of legally pursuing the matter. Funds to cover legal costs will have to be raised.”

Weca was given the mandate to oppose the sale at a community meeting held at Vigilance hall on Sunday 12 January. Since then, the Wynberg Youth Centre’s registration as an NPO has been flagged as under investigation by the national department of social development’s NPO directorate monitoring and compliance department.

According to the department, the NPO has not submitted reports or audited financial statements since 2016 (“NPO under investigation”, People’s Post, 21 January).

Furthermore, Karriem claims, it appears the board of management of the NPO have not complied with its constitution.

He refers to point 17.2 in the NPO’s constitution which reads: “If upon dissolution of the Society, there remain any assets whatsoever after the satisfaction of all its debts and liabilities, such assets shall not be paid to or distributed among its members but

The Wynberg East Civic Association opposes the sale of Wynberg Youth Centre in Innis Road.

PHOTO: NETTALIE shall be given to such other organisations authorised in terms of the Fundraising Act 1978 to collect contributions from the public welfare organisations preferably having similar objectives.”

In an email sent to the national minister of social development (DSD) Lindiwe Zulu on Friday 24 January, Colin Arendse – a coopted member of Weca and a paralegal – asked the legal division of DSD to intervene by authorising an interim committee of ingood-standing residents of Wynberg to take over the day-to-day affairs of the NPO. At the time of going to print, DSD had not yet responded to Arendse’s email.

Should Weca’s efforts to stop the sale bear fruit, Karriem hopes a new interim committee would breathe life back into the centre.

Karriem (44) has been a resident of Wynberg East since birth.

“I used to walk past the youth centre everyday on my way to Wittebome High School. In all that time, nothing changed; there wasn’t any new developments, no new brickwork, nothing.”

People Post sent an email to the chair of the NPO, Joan Reagon, and called but she wasn’t available for comment.

In a previous People’s Post report, Reagon had said they had no choice but to sell the property as the cost of maintaining the building far exceeded its income.

Abubakr Petersen of Kyokushin Karate has been a tenant at the centre since 2012.

VILJOEN

In 2014, he registered an NPO, the Tsori Kyokushin Karate Association, to raise funds for his students. “My students often qualify for Western Province, national and even international tournaments but some can’t even afford the class fees or the uniforms.

The youth centre’s hall was not in a good condition so I approached its board, suggesting we raise funds in conjunction. They looked at me and said, ‘No’,” he claims.

In 2017, Petersen claims he again offered to help. “I told them, ‘Tell me what to do.

I can paint, I can do the floors, I can replace the windows’.”

He says his offer was turned down. “I eventually decided there was no point in keeping the NPO alive to assist the youth centre and I let it go dormant.”

In May 2019, the tenants received a letter from the board, informing them the NPO was struggling and that the youth centre would be put up for sale.

“As tenants, we wrote a letter to the board, offering our services, be it fundraising or whatever. We requested a meeting to discuss how we could help and was told we could meet in two weeks, but the meeting kept on being postponed,” says Petersen.

He claims six months later, they were finally told the board wasn’t interested.

“The chair is an elderly lady, so I even offered to pick her up if she couldn’t drive (to attend the meeting with the tenants). But she was adamant; she just wanted to sell.”

Facility to create and nurture entrepreneurs The launch of the Schools Entrepreneurial Programme (SEP) at Wynberg Boys’ High School (WBHS) last week comes hot on the heels of the official opening of phase 1 of the school’s new Engineering and Design Faculty.

SEP, developed in partnership with EDGE Learning Media, will see learners participate in entrepreneurial studies as part of a fixed curriculum.

Established in 2006, Edge Learning Media creates and delivers both print and digital learning experiences within the professional, occupational and educational sector.

As part of its corporate social responsibility, Edge Learning Media took on the curriculum development and subsequent software development of SEP, at no cost to the school.

Andrew Hibling, CEO of the company and an alumnus of WBHS, says the company aims to roll out the not-for-profit corporate social responsibility initiative at other schools.

“Our success as a company has been as a result of working with amazing clients and great staff, and we are delighted to be able to turn this success into partnering for future generations,” he says.

The new programme, housed in the WBHS’s Engineering and Design Faculty, came about as a result of Hibling visiting and collaborating with Greg Scott, the building’s architect, and Ben Thompson, head of academics for the school.

Hibling identified that, in addition to the technical skills being taught at the fa-

cility, there was a need for empowering the learners with entrepreneurial skills.

Learners participating in the programme will be exposed to real-life scenarios and opportunities to engage an entrepreneurial spirit.

“We chose a blended approach, combining online learning with engagement in the classroom. The learning design is based on a collaborative constructive pedagogy or learning methodology, to build meaning, personally, and then to confirm that meaning collaboratively,” Hibling says.

According to Thompson, enhancing the technical and design skill set with the entrepreneurship curriculum made perfect sense.

“Our learners are being prepared for a future, that will see them enter further ed-

ucation and training, ultimately going on to be the employers of the future, through these essential skills.”

The full programme consists of 42 modules over two years. Learners are taken through five learning activities per module, per week. Two of those learning activities are undertaken at school and three of those activities are undertaken at home. The course is for Grade 10 and Grade 11 learners, meaning the learners will do 21 topics per year. Grade 11 topics build onto the Grade 10 topics covered.

Learners who complete the programme will receive a certificate of completion.

Jan de Waal, principal of the school, says the launch of SEP forms part of the school’s commitment to preparing their learners for the future.

“Providing great educational opportunities is the bedrock for the success of our country.

Importantly, we know that we are going to need entrepreneurs to achieve this success and it is to this end that we are delighted to have the programme as part of our learners’ experience,” says de Waal.

TOKAI

Author shares power of truth NETTALIE VILJOEN

R

ecovery is sobriety and taking action, says Desiree-Anne Martin, author of We Don’t Talk About It, Ever. “Just because you are sober doesn’t mean it’s all going to be sunshine and roses. You take all your baggage with you into recovery.” Desiree-Anne, who has been sober for 15 years, gave a talk on her memoir at the Tokai Public Library on Thursday 13 February.

The addictions and general counsellor says once she got sober

she realised she needed to work on herself. “I had to accept and address my mental health issues,” she says. Desiree-Anne is now on a mission to destigmatise addiction, abuse and mental health concerns. “It is preventing people from getting the help they need.

They are afraid of the stigma, afraid of being judged, being vulnerable.” She says this is the reason why she wrote the book. “I felt compelled to tell the truth, to break the legacy of secret keeping.”

Born in Cape Town, Desiree-

Anne grew up in a family were she was taught that “we don’t talk about it, ever”. In her book she recounts her childhood abuse, multiple addictions and toxic relationships. Her experiences resulted in her getting caught in a downward spiral of drug abuse.

She says there were many psychiatric ward admissions, time spent in holding cells and being dragged to meetings. Even a threestorey drop through the window of her mom’s flat after an escape plan went wrong. Miraculously, she

was unharmed. “My motto was ‘I have to use’. And then when I couldn’t lie, cheat, steal or pawn my way to scoring drugs any longer, I became a sex worker. For me it was all I had left to bargain with. It made perfect sense.”

Desiree-Anne says the mountain of shame that this buried her under drove the cycle of addiction.

“But there is hope, always. I was given an opportunity by my mother to go to a treatment centre.”

There she learnt the power of speaking the truth.

Author Desiree-Anne Martin reads the prologue from her book “We Don’t Talk About It, Ever” at Tokai Library.

Primrose on promotion hunt GOOSAIN ABRAHAMS

P

rimrose is back in the hunt for promotion following the shock defeat by Rylands at the hands of Tygerberg by 47 runs in Western Province Cricket Association’s First Division A competition on Saturday 15 February.

A century by the promising Quasim Salie (120) enabled Primrose to post the highest score this season with a mammoth 297/8 against the hapless Gugulethu. In reply, Gugs were skittled for 64 with the burly Justin Pringle (5/31) doing most of the damage for the Roses. Tygerberg gave an improved performance scoring 204/6 with Nabeel Abrahams top scoring with a score of 51 runs. Rylands lost wickets at regular intervals in their response, eventually being dismissed for 157 with Abrahams (4/40) completing a fine performance with both bat and ball. Kraaifontein is also in the running with an easy 8-wicket win over a depleted United side. While Milnerton completed the double over Ottoman with a 62-run win.
