FLAMINGO CRESCENT: RESIDENTS ECSTATIC OVER REBLOCKING REWARDS

W

hile shackdwellers living at Flamingo Crescent informal settlement celebrate over their more dignified homes, Lansdowne property owners are up in arms.

The City of Cape Town says the shackland is here to stay, encouraging communities to “become integrated”.

The reblocking of the settlement, established as a temporary solution to vagrancy a decade ago, has reached the halfway mark.

New roads, electricity and sanitation is also on the cards.

The settlement was created by council on public open space in 2005 to accommodate 75 shacks.

Today the erven houses 120 families.

The reblocking process is a partnership between council, the Community Organisation Resource Centre and the Informal Settlement Network.

Resource centre coordinator Melanie Manuel says the project has been in the pipeline for the past two years.

“It was a long process as we had to get people accustomed to the idea of change. The community NO PLACE LIKE HOME: Henry Nefdt and Peter Joseph have been residents of Flamingo Crescent informal settle­ has done everything themselves, ment since it was originally constructed in 2005.

“We have been living here since 2005 and there was a lack of services. Now, with us being involved, we have an opportunity to make things better for everyone and take their feelings and needs into consideration as well,” she says.

But Lansdowne residents are less optimistic.

Ebrahim Hull, secretary of the Lansdowne Civic Association, says they receive complaints from residents daily.

“We are happy about the developments in the settlement, but homeowners are still concerned about crime and are blaming the Flamingo Crescent residents for break-ins and thefts,” he says.

But a perturbed Dekoker disagrees.

“We see on many occasions how criminals run through our area and people believe it is our people,” she says.

Mamkeli says it is important for communities to become integrated and accept the Flamingo residents into the community.

“A multi-pronged effort is needed, consisting of various law enforcement bodies, government departments as well as the public and residents of the informal settlement to work together in coming up with possible solutions so that progress can be made to meet the needs of all as best as possible,” he says.

Flamingo Crescent residents say segregation in Lansdowne is still rife and no local organisations were willing to get involved in the project.

But Hull says there was no consultation with homeowners on the future of the settlement and how they felt about the shackland becoming permanent.

Manuel says in order to solve the problem, people’s mindsets need to change.

Gang boss arrest triggers audit

n advocacy group is calling for an audit on all firearm licences after the bust of a fake gun licensing syndicate.

Gun Free South Africa has requested minister of police Nkosinathi Nhleko place a moratorium on the issuing of any new firearm licenses and to conduct a forensic audit of all firearm licences issued since 2010.

This comes after the arrest of three police officers from the Central Firearms Registry and three civilians, including alleged 28s gang boss Ralph Stanfield.

Corruption charges Stanfield, his partner Nicole Johnson and sister Francisca Stanfield, were granted bail (“‘Gang boss’ granted bail”, Tuesday 1 July, www.peoplespost.co.za).

Major General Jeremy Vearey, head of the gang unit Operation Combat, is credited with Stanfield’s arrest on charges relating to the illegal gun licensing racket.

A total of 11 firearms registered to the Mitchell’s Plain residents were confiscated in a raid which led to the arrests, Vearey says. Included in the haul were two semi-automatic rifles, a Winchester hunting rifle and eight handguns.

The issuing of firearm licences, which usually takes between three and six months, took less than a month, Vearey adds.

Spokesperson for Gun Free South Africa Claire Taylor says the arrests are an example of the unreliability of the firearms control management system. “Fraud and corruption in the gun licensing process allows guns to leak into the illegal pool of weapons. and being robust commodities, are used repeatedly to commit crime.

breakdown in the integrity of the system is in lives lost and those who are injured and survive – it is too great a cost.”

South African Gun Association spokesperson John Welch says the organisation supports an audit of firearm licences.

“We believe it is necessary to ensure private and State firearms match licenses, permits and authorisations and official records. Far too many allegations of corrupt activities have been made. Government must ensure the system is legitimate and clean, including the people running the system,” he says.

However, the audit should not impact on the granting of licences, Welch says.

“Since an audit, to be legitimate, needs to be performed by an independent forensic auditing firm, it is going to be extremely expensive. Such an audit should, therefore, have no impact on the licensing process.

The association stands for the right of law abiding people to possess and use firearms for lawful purposes. Accordingly, the choice should be that of the citizen and noone else,” he says.

Troubled system The purpose of the Firearms Control Act (2000) is to establish a comprehensive and effective system of firearms control, says Taylor.

“This means knowing who owns what weapon for which purpose. Firearm licences are the cornerstone of the Firearms Control Act. The firearms licensing process ensures that any potential firearm licence holder is subjected to background checks to affirm that the individual is a ‘fit and proper person’ to possess a gun, as well as training on understanding the law regarding the responsibilities of gun ownership,” she says.

National police spokesman LieutenantGeneral Solomon Makgale says the illegal licensing involved fraud throughout the process, from the initial application to the firearm training facility involved, to the police stations where the applications are lodged and the head office where the applications are approved.

Red tape and a licensing backlog have lead to the temptation to circumvent the system, says Welch. “It is no excuse and surely no justification, but people get frustrated with lack of service delivery and they resort to illegal ways and means to speed up the process – such as fraud and corruption.” he says.

Application backlog According to a 2011 report by then Safety and Security Minister Nathi Mthethwa, over a million applications for licences had been received. But slow processing had led to a backlog of over 850 000 licences.

Taylor says this delay still needs to be cleared and proves an investigation is needed. “Under the previous police minister’s watch South Africa has seen a consistent erosion of firearms control. In November 2010, the minister admitted to the registry ‘malfunctioning’, which had resulted in a backlog of firearm licence applications. He

Call for action Gun Free South Africa called for a firearm licence moratorium and forensic audit in 2013, Taylor says, but the minister responded that “placing a moratorium during the investigation would be unnecessary”.

“In the meantime, fraud and corruption in the firearms licensing system continues, leaking guns into the illegal pool of weapons in South Africa. While the Firearms Control Act has a number of controls to keep licensed gun owners accountable, once in into the illegal pool guns are highly coveted by people who shouldn’t have them, and are used repeatedly to kill, injure and threaten,” she says.

“Gun Free South Africa has publicly expressed concern about endemic fraud and corruption in the firearms control management system. We repeat our call for a moratorium on firearm licensing and a forensic audit of the registry. It is the only way we can be sure that licensed gun owners are in fact fit and proper for the responsibility of owning a lethal weapon.”

Corruption must be rooted out, says Welch. “The root of the evil is not the law abiding firearm owner but the criminal.

Corruption causes indifferent and unequal treatment of people and some applicants who ought not to have licenses, will get licenses for firearms,” he says.

promised to turn the registry into a functional unit that would deal with the backlog

by July 2011. This has not happened.”

She adds: “In mid-2013, 18 police officers, including the head of the Central Firearms Registry, were suspended with immediate effect for alleged involvement in fraud relating to firearm licences. At the same time, the minister established a Committee of Enquiry to investigate unscrupulous dealers in firearms and illegally operating firearm training institutions, with the committee given six weeks to complete its work. A year later, we are still waiting for the committee’s findings and recommendations.”

Welch says no findings have been communicated with his organisation either.

“We have not heard a word since the preliminary investigations done by this committee – no recommendations, no report, nothing. What was the purpose of that exercise?”

The only way to clear this backlog, Welch believes, is to simplify the licensing process. “To eliminate the backlog, the registry needs to ensure there are sufficient properly trained and vetted officers to receive and process applications and there are proper preventive and tracking processes in place to prevent and if necessary, trace corruption,” he says.

“A suspension of the licensing process pending an audit will, for all intents and purposes, destroy the legitimate firearms trade. No person, be it a dealer or law abiding applicant, ought to be punished in any way, because of the crimes of others.”

The minister of police had not responded to a People’s Post query at the time of going to print.

LANSDOWNE: UNREGISTERED SECURITY COMPANIES LINKED TO CRIME SPIKE

Be careful whom you trust SAMANTHA LEE @Samantha_Lee121

C

ustomers of unregistered security companies will be criminally prosecuted.

This is according to the Private Security Industry Regulatory Authority (PSIRA) and comes following a spike in illegal security companies sprouting in the southern suburbs.

Four illegal security guards were charged following an investigation into two “rogue” security companies.

Captain Allan Manuel, operations manager for Lansdowne police, confirmed the incident.

“We assisted PSIRA to apprehend four foreign nationals following complaints they received. The four men have already appeared in court,” Manuel says.

The charges relate to fraud as the men misrepresented themselves and were not in possession of necessary documentation.

In a letter to Sniper Security Solutions, which blew the whistle on the guards’ employers, PSIRA regional manager Xolani Gwala revealed that one of the two companies was discontinued in February and instructed to no longer trade.

“The presumption of all investigations is innocent until proven guilty. It is also unconstitutional to close a business during an investigation or based on allegations,” he wrote.

Sniper owner Ridwaan Mathews says about two months ago, after an “abnormal spike in crime” in the area, he approached the police and PSIRA to look into non-compliant security companies.

He claims unqualified, untrained and drugged armed response officers are common in the industry.

“We have conducted independent research to show that over the past few years there has been an increase in drug abuse in the industry. Employing someone with a drug problem is dangerous because they can take small possessions from clients to feed their habit.”

Mathews says he made drug testing and background checks routine at Sniper.

“We once employed an armed response officer who came from another security company. After calling for a reference, he passed and was hired. We then started noticing suspicious behaviour and upon following a second check, the company claimed they no longer had any record of him,” he says.

Mathews adds it was later revealed the guard in question was dismissed from his previous employer because he was a convicted murderer.

Kenwyn Ratepayers’ and Civic Association and former Western Cape Community Policing Board chairperson Hanief Loonat says people should not be too trusting of security officials.

“Warn your domestics and workers not to get too close to them as it creates opportunity. Many crimes become inside jobs because

DANGER: Be wary of who you employ to look after your safety, warns security company specialists. those you trust know too much. It isn’t the company that is criminally involved, it is the staff who are criminals,” Loonat says.

He advises residents to use a checklist before enlisting a service provider.

“Note how long the company has been operating, read the fine print of your contract and choose a reputable company based close to your home,” he advises.

GRANTS: PICK N PAY NOT TO BLAME FOR DEDUCTIONS

Sassa pension glitch explained DESIRÉE RORKE @dezzierorke

A

GIVING BACK: With the aim of lending a helping hand to 16 500 families across the province, the South African National Zakah Fund hosted three fitrah (food aid) hamper packing sessions.

Volunteers and local residents assisted the organisation and completed the mammoth task on Sunday at mosques in Mitchell’s Plain, Bridgetown and Athlone as well as at the Islamic Coordinating Council in Grassy Park. They exceeded their target by assisting 22 000 across the country.

n administrative glitch was responsible for the irregular transaction charges deducted from pensioners who withdrew their old-age grants from Pick n Pay stores during December last year and again this April.

Several confused local pensioners contacted People’s Post after small amounts, ranging from R2.50 to R10, had been deducted.

At the time, director of customer services at Pick n Pay Jonathan Ackerman confirmed that the supermarket does not charge any fees for the withdrawal of South African Social Security Agency (Sassa) grant payments, and Sassa informed pensioners across the peninsula that it had “launched an investigation,” forwarding all complaints to its service provider, Cash Paymaster Services (CPS).

Despite numerous media enquiries to determine why the deductions were made, Sassa never clarified the reason for the deductions.

Pick n Pay in the clear Last week, some six months after the first complaints were lodged, an explanation was finally provided by CPS, the company contracted by Sassa for the payment of social grants.

CPS is owned by Net1, a global company which provides payment and transaction processing services for several industries.

Serge Belamant, CEO and chairperson of Net1, apologised for the late response to queries from People’s Post sister publication TygerBurger.

He explained the irregularities, saying: “Numerous merchant stores (including

Pick n Pay) have entered into agreements with CPS/Net1 to ensure grant beneficiaries are not charged fees when they buy goods or when they draw cash in these merchant stores.”

Agreement “This free service is not available at merchant stores that have not entered into an agreement with CPS/Net1.”

In this case, he says, standard banking fees apply for all transactions such as cash withdrawal, purchases, balance enquiries, invalid PIN entry and so forth. “They are more than 20 such fees which are charged by the issuing or acquiring banks.”

He said Pick n Pay had changed the name of some of their stores on the CPS system, so these stores no longer formed part of the agreement between Pick n Pay and CPS/ Net1. “This led to the fees under question being charged. When this was discovered, it was rectified immediately. Unfortunately, we process hundreds of thousands of transactions in a very short time and we needed to identify which grant beneficiaries had been affected and which had not.

Many grant beneficiaries complained via our call centre and these individuals were refunded immediately. Many who did not file or report a complaint had to wait for our IT division to reconcile all ten million accounts and ensure all charges that should not have been levied were reversed,” he said.

Belamant said that this had taken a few weeks to finalise but all reversals should be completed by the end of July.

He added that, as of 1 April, all Pick n Pay stores have complied with the aforementioned agreement and the deductions would not recur.

‘Drug delivery woman’ nabbed

SAMANTHA LEE @Samantha_Lee121

A 24-year-old woman was arrested in a drug bust on Thursday morning while allegedly delivering drugs in Manenberg.

Police spokesperson Lieutenant Ian Bennett says officers responded to a tip-off of a white Toyota doing the rounds in the area.

“During a patrol, officers were informed to be on the lookout for the car. As the car passed them they followed the woman driver,” Bennett says.

The woman was approached at Helen Court at 10:45.

“They searched the vehicle and found a large bag on the back seat. They found the drugs in four brown packets covered in buff tape under clothing,” he adds.

Police confiscated 4 000 mandrax tablets with a street value of R120 000.

The woman was arrested and faces charges of drug possession and dealing, defeating the ends of justice and bribery.

The police are urging residents to come forward with information on drug- and gang-related crimes.

Anyone with information can phone Manenberg Police Station on (021) 699 9400 or CrimeStop on 08600 10111.

Man killed in early morning shooting The day had barely started when shots were fired in Hanover Park on Tuesday morning, claiming the life of a 37-year-old man in Hanlyn Road.

Philippi police spokesperson Lieutenant Lance Goliath says the shooting was an isolated incident.

“The deceased sustained gunshot wounds to his head and died at the scene.

The unknown gunman fled on foot and is

still at large,” he says.

The motive for the shooting has not yet been established.

A murder case is under investigation.

Anyone with information on the incident is urged to phone investigating officer Detective Sergeant Phelesile Ludada on (021) 690 1517 or 084 595 2460.

All information will be treated as highly confidential.

Dog food recall after contamination Dog owners are advised to return potentially contaminated dog food following reports of mould being found in brands such as Bobtail, PnP No Name, Dogmor and Bonzo.

Producers Foodcorp explained in a statement that the contamination was caused by Deoxynivalenol, a mould found on maize, in certain batches produced in June.

The company says the food is likely to result in a less appetising meal for your dog, but does not pose any severe side effects.

Foodcorp is now offering pet owners the opportunity to replace their purchase with

a new bag if it was produced between Wednesday 4 and Monday 23 June.

To do this, owners should check the manufacturing date on the bag, which starts with the letters MANF. If the bag was produced during this time, contact Foodcorp’s hotline on (011) 411 5555.

A voucher will be issued for a new bag of food. This voucher can be spent at retailers stocking the brands.

For more information, phone (011) 411 5555 or email enquiries@foodcorp.co.za.

HANOVER PARK: RESIDENTS STEP UP TO TAKE ON CRIME

Street fever SAMANTHA LEE @Samantha_Lee121

H

ere’s your chance to take back your street. Concerned Hanover Park residents living in and around Stonelands Road are ready to walk the walk in an attempt to stem the number of burglaries plaguing their community.

And they want you to join them.

Following the success of the court and street committees established in recent years, active citizenship is needed on this Hanover Park throughway to keep burglars at bay, says resident and Hanover Park Civic Association chairperson Errol Davids.

“We have all come together because enough is enough,” Davids says.

Philippi Police Station commander Colonel Frankes de Vis says they have seen a decrease in crime since volunteer crime fighters act as the eyes and ears of the police on the street.

“I wish we could promise 24-hour patrols, but we can’t. These street committees can offer that because they are on the ground every day,” he says.

Fed-up, brave residents who are unafraid to point out problem individuals would make ideal volunteers, De Vis says.

The committees are elected by the residents of the street or court and they serve as a link between the police and the community. “We don’t have much resources but we will make sure to do the best we can with what we have,” De Vis says.

Volunteer Lester Daniels says the committees empower residents to make a difference. “We need to stand together to effec-

tively combat crime in our community,” he says.

HOMELESS: STUDY PINPOINTS NEEDS

Plan of action is on track

T

he City of Cape Town’s reintegration projects for street people appear to be heading in the right direction.

In less than a year, nearly 1 400 people living on the street have been assisted through access to services and reintegrating them with their families.

This comes as the City’s Department of Social Development has noted an encouraging shift in the number of street people who are making use of the interventions designed to help them get back on their feet.

The department has teams of fieldworkers across the city who engage with street people daily to assess their needs and offer assistance where possible.

Between November last year and June, fieldworkers facilitated medical and other rehabilitative services, as well as reintegration for 1 128 people.

In addition, the eight City-sponsored assessment centres that started operating in January have assessed more than 300 clients.

These centres have helped 65 people return to their communities of origin and have assisted more than 200 others in accessing mental health services, treatment for substance abuse, job skills development programmes and State grants.

The City’s Mayoral Committee member for Social Development and Early Childhood Development Suzette Little says: “I am encouraged by the progress we are making. It may seem minor in the bigger scheme of things, but when we consider the mammoth challenge we are faced with, it gives me con-

Increasing access to family planning is high on the City of Cape Town’s Health Directorate’s list, as over 4% of all births in the metro are due to teenage pregnacy.

According to the United Nations, about 16 million girls under the age of 18 give birth each year, while another 3.2 million undergo unsafe abortions. In the Mother City, the number of teenagers giving birth at State facilities has dropped from 5.3% of all recorded births in 2006 to 4.3% in 2011.

The reduction has been even greater in the Mitchell’s Plain and Khayelitsha sub-districts where the number of births has dropped by 1.5% and 1.4% respectively over the five-year period, says Mayoral Committee member for Health Benedicta van Minnen.

The teacher to pupil ratio will decrease following the introduction of 676 new teaching positions for the Western Cape in 2015.

The posts form part of the Minister of Education in the Western Cape’s annual mandate.

Minister of Education in the Western Cape Debbie Schäfer says there were many factors that played a role in the decision.

“I must, on advice from the provincial education department, decide how many teaching posts the department can afford in terms

fidence that we are on the right track. It is also imperative to highlight that we cannot force anyone to enter a programme or go to a shelter if they don’t want to – but we will continue to offer assistance.”

During the period under review, the City’s fieldworkers recorded an estimated 180 new people who had migrated to the streets – a focus area which Little says the department is investing in heavily.

“Our efforts to help people get off the streets would be futile if we ignored others who continue to migrate to the streets. Thus our overall strategy also includes a number of interventions focusing on families, substance abuse, truancy and youth development – areas of risk that tend to serve as catalysts for why people end up on the streets,” she says.

“Unfortunately, it will take some time before the fruits of our labour become apparent. There is no hard and fast solution in social development, because social conditioning and socio-economic situations do not change overnight.”

The department has meanwhile stepped up its interventions to help meet the needs of street people during winter. Sixteen organisations have qualified for the R280 000 in aid the City has made available as part of its street people winter readiness programme, in association with Community Chest and provincial government government. In the first few weeks of the programme, 200 mattresses and blankets were distributed to the organisations, as well as a range of food stuff and toiletries.

Birth control options for teen moms “The figures are encouraging, but we are under no illusion there is still a mountain to climb. Ideally, we would want to prevent teenagers from falling pregnant in the first place. This is why it is so important that we create environments which meet the needs of young people and will prompt them to seek help and guidance on effective birth control and how to prevent sexually transmitted infections,” she says.

The City is now looking to expand its family planning services, including counselling about different family planning methods, the provision of these methods, and monitoring of possible side effects.

“It’s a commonly held view that young people stay away from clinics because they fear being judged and ridiculed and that this is a factor in the number of teen pregnancies.

So, as a City, we are working to provide the widest possible range of services to our clients, but also to provide a safe environment where those services can be accessed – for example the Youth Clinic in Khayelitsha which sees an average of 7 000 patients a month. It is an ongoing process, but I believe we are making progress,’ added Van Minnen.

The City is acutely aware of the challenges facing young women who find themselves

More teachers for 2015 of its budget allocation, the increase in number of learners within the system, growth and curriculum among others,” she says.

Other factors include the need of schools, improvement of mathematics and languages, infrastructure, cost of living and continuation of pro-poor relief.

Schäfer comments this year has seen an

improvement on previous years.

“In previous years, thedepartment did not always have the financial resources to create additional teacher posts. In 2011, the number of educator posts had to be reduced as a result of the financial climate and general inflation,” she says.

But warns that it may not always be possible.

catapulted into motherhood – very often having to leave school because of the societal stigma, thus limiting their opportunities to carve out a better life for themselves and their newborn, Van Minnen says.

“We need to create an opportunity driven society where moms can still work and study. As far as I’m concerned, it means we need to keep the doors of learning open to them, without prejudice.

“It also means government must continue our drive to provide quality Early Childhood Development opportunities and other safe spaces where children are cared for while their mothers are out working or studying. Ultimately government can only do so much. At some point it needs to become a partnership and sharing of responsibility.”

“It would be financially irresponsible for any Provincial Education Minister or Department to commit to an increase in posts when it is not financially sustainable.”

Last year, provincial minister for education Donald Grant, in his capacity as MEC for education made 100 Foundation Phase posts available due to savings and efficient management.

A further 81 additional posts in the Foundation Phase and 45 posts in the other phases were also introduced.

Stokvels taking centre stage July is National Savings Month, and this year the spotlight is on stokvels.

The annual Savings Month, instigated by the South African Savings Institute (Sasi), aims to foster a culture of saving through promoting debate around key aspects of savings and raising awareness of the benefits of short, medium and long term planning.

The exclusion of many South Africans from the mainstream financial sector during apartheid caused parallel informal financial mechanisms to emerge, says SASI spokesperson Elizabeth Lwanga-Nanziri. “Stokvels, mogodisan and lekgotla – these terms are now synonymous with township savings and investment clubs and one cannot address issues around saving without including these mechanisms,” she says.

“After 20 years of democracy as well as financial sector reforms that encourage access to financial services, these informal mechanisms are still vibrant, with membership that spans across the entire income spectrum. This has clear implications for the formal financial sector.”

A study by Africa Response in 2012 put a

HANOVER PARK: RESIDENTS MOVE INTO REVAMPED FLATS

value of R44bn a year of savings accumulated through informal saving mechanisms.

Lwanga-Nanziri explains that these mechanisms continue to evolve, with research findings pointing to forward-looking stokvel structures that now encourage members to save for education for their children or to purchase or expand homes, over and above saving for basic requirements such as food and medical care.

“The outcome of the Sasi Savings Symposium of 2013 pointed to a financial regulatory framework that is inadvertently keeping many South Africans out of the operations of the formal financial system,” she says.

“As practitioners strive to observe the current regulations, ordinary South Africans either join the formal system which can be perceived as expensive or inappropriate for their needs, or to use their familiar informal system, although it could take advantage of their lack of alternative financial service and product options. This problem is exacerbated by the fragmentation of this market, which makes information sharing on financial risks and opportunities challenging.”

Joyous celebration

A

fter a three-week wait that seemed to take forever, residents of Ontario Court in Hanover Park are thrilled to finally be moving out of the container vil-

lage and into their renovated flats.

With new taps, toilets, tiles, electrical cables and a fresh coat of paint residents say they don’t have a complaint in the world.

Beware of bogus advisors Despite extensive awareness campaigns, many South Africans are still being swindled to invest in scams.

“The only way investors can completely avoid investment scams is to retain absolute control of their hard-earned money,” says Dr Koos du Toit, CEO of P3 Investment Group.

“We believe you should never give your hard-earned money to an unknown third party to invest on your behalf. You should always keep 100% control over your invested money. You should know exactly where your money is and what it is doing – preferably where you can see and touch it.”

The Financial Services Board (FSB) advised the industry that despite its licence being withdrawn in August 2013, Mentor Life Cover and Investment Ltd continues to render financial services without authorisation, and further warned the public against dealing with MBB Legacy Investment Group, another entity not licensed in terms of the FAIS Act and not authorised to render financial services.

One of the latest determinations handed down by the FAIS Ombudsman involved

a widow who was defrauded of the money received from her late husband’s life insurance policy. A man purported as being a financial advisor at Nedbank convinced her to invest in his newly established company, Jam Financial Planning. In another case, an investor invested R100 000 with iBear and R200 000 through Blue Platinum Investments in various blue chip shares and commodities on the JSE, but was swindled out of R180 000. Investors should note that the Ombudsman can only deal with cases up to the value of R800 000.

The FSB recommends that investors opt to invest in property, especially buy-to-let.

A well-chosen property will not only protect your investment by producing steady capital growth year after year, but will also generate an ongoing, passive monthly income that keeps pace with inflation, year after year. The ability to generate both capital growth and passive, ongoing income, without relinquishing control of the investment to any institution or individual, are the reasons why direct property investment remains the top asset choice for the world’s wealthiest people.

Audi hybrid could head for SA WHEELS24 @Wheels24

A

udi expands its hatchback family with the addition of its first plug-in hybrid model, the A3 Sportback e-tron, in Europe.

According to Audi South Africa, the A3 Sportback e-tron is “currently under review for local introduction” with a possible launch in 2016.

It’s powered by a 1.4 TFSI petrol and an electric motor, mated to a six-speed S-tronic dual-clutch transmission, for a total output of 150kW and 350Nm. Drivers can choose from four driving modes – comfort, auto, dynamic and individual.

Its battery has a capacity of 8.8kWh and can be charged two hours from an industrial outlet. A versatile charging system is standard, while a smartphone app provides remote charging and precooling/preheating.

It accelerates to 100km/h in 7.6 seconds on to a top speed of 222km/ h (limited to 130km/h in electric mode).

Fuel consumption is rated at a claimed 1.5 litres/100km with emissions of 35g/km. In EV mode it has a range of 50km.

The engine is shifted 6cm to the right compared to the standard A3 engine layout to make room for additional components.

Its crankcase is made of lightweight aluminum and the engine weighs just 100kg. The A3 e-tron has a curb weight (without driver) of 1540kg.

In Europe, the A3 Sportback etron is sold with a charging system that comprises of a control unit with graphical display, a car cable and two power cables with the household and industrial plugs ap-

In terms of design, it benefits from a matt black grille with 14 chromed-struts, forked chromed struts in the air inlets and sporty bumpers and side sill trims. The rear receives design changes in-

cluding a grey diffuser with two chromed horizontal slats. E-tron badges adorn the grille, the luggage compartment hatch and the fenders.

According to Audi: “The dynamic lines of the exterior continue to the elegant and clean interior of

the A3 Sportback e-tron, much the same when compared to its A3 siblings.”

Inside, the powermeter, which replaces the tachometer, shows the system’s overall output, as well as the status of the drivetrain and battery charge.

Mazda2 goes techno

WHEELS24 @Wheels24

M

azda revealed its fourth-generation Mazda2 on Thursday 17 July as production of its latest hatchback began at its Hofu factory in Hiroshima, Japan.

The new Mazda2, based on the Hazumi concept, is powered by the automaker’s SkyActiv technology and “Kodo – Soul of Motion” design language. More than 2.4million Mazda2 units (also sold as the Demio) have been sold globally since it was first launched in 1996.

The Mazda2 joins its similarly Kodo designed siblings – the Mazda CX-5, Mazda6 and Mazda3.

According to the automakers, the new

SPORTY: The Mazda2, initially to be launched in Japan, will make its global debut in 2015.

hatchback is expected to raise the bar in the crucial B segment, Europe’s largest in terms of market share.

The hatchback is powered by a new member of Mazda’s SkyActiv engine family – the 77kW/250Nm 1.5 SkyActiv-D diesel and, depending on the market, petrol versions of its 1.5 SkyActiv-G. Each can be mated to either a six-speed manual or auto with stop/start technology and brake energy regeneration.

The new model has SkyActive body and chassis. Inside it benefits from a “spacious and refined interior”, the automaker’s MZD Connect multimedia system and i-ActivSense safety.

Mazda SA could not confirm when the new Mazda2 might reach you.

Battle for ‘green’ car glory WHEELS24 @Wheels24 Global automakers are locked in a showdown evoking the video format wars of the 1980s, as they bet on what eco-friendly vehicles will prevail in the battle for dominance of the burgeoning low-emissions sector.

In a contest reminiscent of the scrap for pre-eminence in the home video market, which pitched Betamax against VHS, huge auto firms are going all out for very different technologies.

Toyota, which is ending a battery deal with US electric car leader Tesla, is concentrating on mass-producing a fuel-cell vehicle, along with smaller rival Honda.

Nissan has bet the farm on allelectrics, unveiling its second model this month – despite weak sales of its flagship Leaf – and is pushing the technology in China, where officials are scrambling to contain an air pollution crisis.

Japan’s No.2 automaker is also reportedly in talks with Germany’s BMW and Tesla about standardising re-charging systems after the electric automaker took the rare step of agreeing to share its patents with competitors to boost lacklustre battery vehicle production.

Stefan Bratzel, director of Germany’s Centre of Automotive Management, said: “Nissan and Tesla... came out with very ambitious goals for the technology but had to backtrack, partly because demand... wasn’t strong enough.”

He continues: “Daimler, Toyota and General Motors are the most advanced in fuel cells, but the problem is the high cost of the technology and necessary infrastructure.”

Limited range, high prices Analysts report very low or zero-emission vehicles will dominate the next phase of independent travel, with governments everywhere rolling out stricter emissions standards.

This near-certainty is sparking huge investment, with Japan’s seven major automakers expected to spend a record R260bn on “green” car research and development through 2014, according to the Nikkei business daily.

Detractors say electric vehicles simply shift emissions to fossil-fuel power stations that provide the energy to recharge their batteries. They are also hampered by a short driving range.

But fuel-cell cars are seen as the Holy Grail of green cars as they’re powered by a chemical reaction of hydrogen and oxygen, which produces nothing more harmful than water.

Still largely experimental, fuel-cell vehicles could get a boost as various jurisdictions launch new hydrogen fuelling stations.

Toyota is eyeing a 500km range for its fuel-cell car – more than twice the Leaf’s current (excuse the pun!) range – and much faster refuel.

The company, while not abandoning electric altogether, sees the fuel cell as the next logical step after its big early success with the Prius petrol-electric hybrid which has sold about 3.7 million since its launch in the late 1990s.

Nobuyori Kodaira, Toyota’s executive vice-president, says: “Electric vehicles are still so limited by the cruising range.

Hydrogen can be recharged in three minutes... quick-charging an electric vehicle still takes about half an hour.”

T

he 16 teams comprising the Mr Price High Schools Soccer League will resume their title challenge at Westridge High School in Mitchell’s Plain on Saturday.

Week 10 of the annual tournament will see all the teams in action, with the pick of the matches undoubtedly being the clash between Portland and defending champions Mondale.

The two teams currently occupy third and fourth place on the log respectively. A solitary point is the only difference between the two sides, with Portland on 17 points and Mondale trailing.

Current log leaders Tafelsig will look to continue the form they showed before the winter school holiday break when they take on 12th-placed Westridge.

Tafelsig, currently on 20 points, have been in subliminal form this year, remaining unbeaten in eight of their nine matches. They would also want to stretch the current one-point lead they have on second-placed Cloetesville.

Meanwhile, the Stellenbosch team will face-off against Rocklands, who have struggled to find form in the first half of the season. Rocklands are in 11th place on the table after only gaining 10 points from their last nine outings.

In two mid-table encounters Lentegeur (fifth) will take on eighth-place Glendale, while sixth-place Beacon Hill will do battle with Cedar (seventh). Victories and defeats in these two matches will ensure a mid-table shuffle at the end of the round, as only one point and points difference separates the four teams. Lentegeur, Beacon Hill and Cedar are all on 14 points, while Glendale are on 13.

At the bottom half of the table, ninth-placed Princeton (11 points) will face Oval North who are dead last on the table with six points, while Spine Road (10th; 11 points) will face 15th-placed Belgravia (6 points).

In the battle for 13th place, Aloe (13th) will face 14thplaced Strandfontein. Both teams are currently on seven points, with only goal difference separating them.

Saturday’s matches will be played in two rounds, with four clashes at 09:00 and the other four at 10:15.

V The matches kicking off at 09:00 will be Portland v Mondale (A-field), Oval North v Princeton (B-field), Westridge v Tafelsig (C-field) and Aloe v Strandfontein (D-field).

V The 10:15 kick-off will see battles between Beacon Hill and Cedar on the A-field, Belgravia and Spine Road on the B-field, Cloetesville and Rocklands on the C-field and Lentegeur and Glendale on the D-field.

Ikeys resume SLA title charge TASMIN CUPIDO @TazzCup Green Point’s Hamiltons RFC have qualified for next year’s Cell C Community Cup. Hammies, who remain unbeaten at the top of Western Province’s Super League A after nine matches, secured their spot in the top flight of South African club rugby by beating Southern Suburbs rivals False Bay RFC 2439 in Constantia on Saturday.

In what started as a tightknit encounter, Hammies led the hosts 0-10 at half-time. But the second half saw the floodgates open, as the men from the Atlantic Seaboard ran in five tries to secure a bonus point victory. It keeps them atop the top tier of WP club rugby with 43 points after eight matches.

Meanwhile, The Bay’s four tries in the last quarter of the match ensured they remain in the running for the other spot in the Community Cup. They are currently in second place on 36 points after 10 matches.

False Bay resume their title and Community Cup charge when they host stragglers NNK on Saturday 26 July.

The visitors, who have yet to notch a victory this season, will have their work cut out for them against the in-form men in green and red. The Bay will look to secure a bonuspoint victory to remain in Community Cup contention.

In the other Super League A match in the

Southern Suburbs this weekend, thirdplaced UCT will host another team languishing at the bottom of log, Bellville RFC. The match will be the first game for both teams after the mid-season break.

Ikeys last played Super League A rugby more than two months ago, when they hosted Durbanville-Bellville at the Green Mile on Friday 23 May. They won that outing 2211.

But the students in the Tigers’ squad represented the university at the annual University Sports South Africa rugby tournament at Rhodes University in Grahamstown from Monday 30 June to Friday 4 July. However, the men from the Cape were only able to win one of three matches as they narrowly lost 32-31 to arch rivals Maties on day one, beat Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University 29-24 on day two and conceded 22-19 to University of the Free State on the last day.

Since their last Super League A match in June, UCT have managed to remain in the top three of the log and will look to resurge their campaign when they face the men from the Northern Suburbs on Saturday. Bellville – on eight points in 14th place on the log – have only won one match this season, a 39-26 victory over fellow-stragglers NNK. Southern Suburbs teams in the Super League C, City and Southern Leagues are not in action this week.

V All first team matches kick-off at 16:00.
