BACKLOG: 900 000 TRANSACTIONS PROCESSED

Hundreds cue for licences ESMÉ ERASMUS

I

rate residents who need to renew their vehicle licences or register new motor vehicles did not only have to endure waiting for more than four hours in the queue at the Durbanville licensing office last week.

They also had to endure all kinds of weather – from hot sunny weather earlier in the week to pouring rain last Friday when TygerBurger visited the licence office at the mu-

nicipal building.

People in the queue had already been waiting for more than four hours to have their licences renewed – some from other suburbs such as Brackenfell and Bellville.

Some were there for the second time after they were unsuccessful earlier.

In the meantime, officials at licensing offices all over the City of Cape Town managed to process a record of close to 900 000 vehicle transactions in the four months since June,

according to a media release by the City.

This is more than double the amount under normal, non-pandemic conditions, Ian Neilson, Mayco member for finance and executive deputy mayor said to TygerBurger.

According to Cathy Vadas (71) from Durbanville she took matters into her own hands last Tuesday when she saw an elderly woman of “at least 90 years standing for hours in the scorching sun” in the pensioner’s queue.

“The poor woman was red in the face; it was boiling hot. Another woman went to ask if she can sit inside in the shadow to wait her turn, but was refused.

“She was told that nobody is allowed to sit inside after there was a quarrel with the people in the normal row.

“They said if they let the old people sit inside, other people complain,” Vadas told TygerBurger.

FROM PAGE 1 “In the end they allowed her inside after I pointed out how flushed she looked. It is criminal to make an old woman sit in the sun like this; it is just morally wrong to treat old people like this. There was also another woman who had an operation, who said she was already waiting since 06:45,” she says.

Vadas arrived at the office at 11:30 and it took her two hours to have her licence renewed. “The problem is you only realise you need a hat and sunscreen when you arrive there,” she says.

Vadas complained to the local councillor, Theresa Uys (ward 112) about it, who arranged for four chairs to be put inside.

Uys said to TygerBurger she undertook two site visits to the licensing office.

“There are a huge backlog after the licensing office was closed for three months during lockdown. Every time an employee tested positive for Covid-19, they had to close the office to be sanitised,” she says.

According to Uys the City is the only appointed service provider linked to the National Traffic Information System (Natis) unlike other provinces where vehicle transactions can also be done at post offices.

“We have requested for more machines to be connected to Natis, but it was denied,” she says.

“We are trying out outmost best to facilitate services to the public. We still have a better service at Durbanville licensing office, with people coming from other suburbs to do their vehicle transactions here. They definitely do not have a ‘no care’ attitude and often work until 19:30 or even 20:00 to capture the

NUUS

paper work,” she says.

She nominated the staff in Durbanville for staff awards “for the exceptionl work they have done in these times”, she says. She encourages people to make use of the online e-Service portal, and if they do go to a licensing office, to remember an umbrella and other protections against the elements.

According to Neilson City teams continue to work through the remaining renewal backlogs that arose during the Covid-19 hard lockdown period, “which is a countrywide challenge”.

“There are some 1.3 million registered vehicles in the Cape Town metro that require vehicle licensing services.

“However, officials have consistently processed double the normal monthly volumes since June,” Neilson says. About 100 000 motor vehicle-related transactions are (normally) performed per month across the city, he says.

This was done with less staff in offices at the same time to adhere to Covid-19 safety regulations and social distancing.

In the Durbanville licensing office a total of 38 970 motor vehicle registrations and licensing transactions was done from 14 July to 31 October, Neilson says.

“Officials have been working at night and over weekends to clear the three to four month backlog. We have also experienced high vehicle registration volumes from car dealers since the lifting of the hard lockdown. This is in addition to the licence renewal backlog,” he says.

“The number of people in queues has reduced over the past month. However, queues still appear to be long due to the abnormal

situation and therefore it remains vital that customers practise social distancing.

He reminded of the following national transport regulations and asked people to note that fines are nationally determined; the City may not unilaterally write off fines: . Discs that expired on 30 September: the renewal is overdue. . Discs that expired on or before 31 August (including the Covid-19 three-month grace period): the renewal is overdue. . Motor trade vehicle numbers/trade plate: renew by 30 November. . Driver’s and learner’s licences: renew by 31 January 2021.

Due to Covid-19, customers can expect to be screened at the entrance when they visit a licensing office. A limited number of customers are allowed in at a time. Social distancing is required and must be adhered to.

“If queues are too long, consider returning the following day. There are longer queues due to reduced staff at some offices as required by Covid-19 regulations and high volumes of transactions are being experienced,” Neilson says.

He encouraged people to register on e-Services. The following services are offered online: . Renew vehicle licences. . Submit water or electricity readings. . Pay accounts online. . View current account and account history. . Apply to receive accounts via email. . Log service requests.

For motor vehicle registration and licensing assistance, send an email to Vehicle.Licence@capetown.gov.za.

Crime in the area NIELEN DE KLERK @nielendk

I

t’s been a busy week of petty crimes in Stellenberg and surrounds.

Many were prevented because of the active neighbourhood watch and the area’s human detection cameras. . On Sunday, 8 November, a laptop was stolen. The owner of the house realised this when he returned from the shops at around 18:40. He did not lock the security gate after taking the purchases into the house. Upon hearing a sound, he realised his laptop had been removed. . On Friday, 6 November, a wall jumper triggered a beam in Rosendal at around 01:30. There was evidence of someone being there, but nobody could be found. . On Friday, 6 November, neighbours and patrollers prevented the theft of what is believed would have been a car battery. According to reports, a resident in Mauritius Crescent reported a suspicious man lurking around a car at around 02:49.

NHW patrollers and armed response officers responded. An NHW patroller arrived at the scene first and saw the suspect close to a parked car.

When the suspect spotted the patrol vehicle he ran away and jumped into a waiting car with CFM plates and sped off. . On the same evening, the wheels of a vehicle in Amandel Street, Eversdal were stolen off. The local NHW recommends fitting wheels with lock nuts and parking in a well-lit area. . On the evening of Tuesday 3 November at around 20:00 a visitor’s bakkie was broken into in Kontiki street. The visitor noticed the back standing open when she came out.

Nothing of value was taken. . Later that evening, at around 03:33 the NHW’s pedestrian alerts showed a person walking into Glen Ive. A patroller noticed the alert and approached the area. He saw the suspect open a bakkie. The suspect was about to take off with goods when the patroller shouted. The suspect dropped the goods and ran away.

Alet du Preez, head of the Stellenberg NHW, says the current trend of incidents is unacceptable. She believes it is because of people walking around in the area and who squat in various areas in and around the area.

“There aren’t many incidents where vehicles are used.”

She says they have an active NHW who, together with very supportive armed response companies, respond to the incidents and reports of suspicious people and are therefore successful in preventing many incidents.

“We need all residents to join the NHW and become part of the eyes and ears of the community.”

Boek ’n blik op Kaapse misdade NIELEN DE KLERK @nielendk

A

s jy soms na hoëprofiel-misdaadtonele kyk en wens iemand in die binnekring sou daaroor praat, het die regte boek vir jou pas verskyn.

Oud-brig. Fanie Brits (73) se tweede boek, Op pad na die galg, is 550 bladsye propvol agtergrondinligting oor sommige van die boeiendste sake wat die Kaap nog gesien het.

Fanie, wat in Bellair in Bellville bly, het byna elke soort saak al ondersoek, en hy het die nagmerries om dit te bewys.

In sy loopbaan in die polisie was hy onder meer speurhoof by Stellenbosch en bevelvoerder van die destydse Wes-Kaapse moord- en roofeenheid, wat in Bishop Lavis geleë was.

Hy is in 1994 medies ongeskik verklaar ná 30 jaar in die mag.

Toegang tot bronne oor moorde Waar hy nie self sake ondersoek het of in beheer was van sekere sake nie, het hy direkte toegang gehad tot baie van die ondersoekbeamptes of belanghebbendes wat wel by sake betrokke was – soos in die geval van die “kruisboog-moord” waaroor hy meer as ’n jaar lank navorsing gedoen het vir die boek.

Die boek bevat juis ses hoofstukke oor vrouemoorde, onder meer ook die “skêrmoord” waarin Marlene Lehnberg en Marthinus Charles Choegoe vir Susanna Magdalena van der Linde in 1974 vermoor het.

Daar is ook ’n hoofstuk oor bendes, ’n hoofstuk oor selfdood en genadedood, asook twee hoofstukke oor plaasmoorde.

Verder is daar nog 11 hoofstukke oor ander wrede moorde. Daar is ook ’n hoofstuk oor die Gugulethu 7, waar Fanie een van die eerstes op die toneel was.

Dit is “teen my grein op my afgedwing .... om te ondersoek”.

Waar daar talle boeke en berigte oor die meer bekende Brixton se moord- en roofeenheid geskryf is, bly die Wes-Kaap s’n nog redelik in misterie gehul.

Moord- en roof, glyjakkalse Dit is juis een van die redes vir die boek – Fanie wou erkenning gee vir van die werk wat top-polisiemanne daar verrig het.

Een voorbeeld is Frans Maritz wat onder meer twee opspraakwekkende moorde op skoolmeisies help oplos het: Lynette van Zyl (13) van Goodwood, wat in 1970 vermoor is (en waarvoor daar ’n hele polisietaakmag op die been gebring is om haar moord te ondersoek) en ook die bisarre saak van Sharon Ashford (14) van Oranjezicht, wat in 1973 wat deur ’n nabye huurder vermoor is omdat hy “iets groots” met sy lewe wou doen. Die moordenaar, Robert Morton, is in 1974 vir haar moord tereggestel.

Die boek dra ’n ouderdomsbeperking van 13 omdat daar grafiese prente van misdaadtonele ingesluit is. Hierdie ouderdomsbeperking kon selfs hoër gewees het en kopers moet hulself voorberei op ’n paar grusame tonele.

Op pad na die galg volg op Fanie se eerste boek, In die skadu van die galg, wat hy begin skryf het nadat hy deur ’n oudbevelvoerder van Bellville se polisiekantoor, André van Dyk, aangemoedig is. Dit het in 2017 verskyn.

Hy wou ’n opvolgboek skryf omdat hy nog nie afsluiting en berusting gevind het nie.

Fanie voel, soos baie ander, ook ingeloop deur die “glyjakkals” Chris Smit, wat hul eerste boek uitgegee het en nou tereg staan in talle bedrogsake.

Boonop het hy nou kans gehad om al sy bronne ten volle te benut – dit sluit dokumente, verslae en beëdigde verklarings in – die spreekwoordelike “never seen before”, wat ’n boek daardie ekstra skop gee.

Fanie sê geen van sy boeke sou bestaan het

gedoen het. Die boek self is deur die Brits-egpaar by Bidvest gedruk. Hulle verkoop self die boek.

Intussen stroom die komplimente in.

Hennie Heymans, redakteur van die polisie-tydskrif Nongqai, sê: “’n Absolute moet as voorkursus vir enige student in kriminologie of die ondersoek van misdaad. Daar is geen plaasvervanger vir ondervinding nie!”

Die proses Fanie, wat nie regtig ’n rekenaar kan gebruik nie, het sy hele boek met die hand uitgeskryf, waarna Sue dit getik en geredigeer het.

Hierna het hulle dit vir Myra Lochner by Kreativ SA gestuur, wat finale hersiening

Die toekoms Fanie is duidelik nie iemand wat iets in halwes doen nie. Buiten vir skryf, is hy ook ’n ywerige tuinman, ’n Westelike Provinsieskut en maak sy eie boerewors.

Hy bly al meer as 40 jaar in sy huidige huis, waar hy in al dié jare by Die Burger ingeteken is.

Daar is ook ’n sagter kant aan dié geharde polisieman. Die koerantafleweraar maak tydens die onderhoud ’n draai om te groet en Brits vertel met groot respek van die vrou en haar vriende.

Gaste aan sy huis word dikwels met geskenke uit sy tuin of Sue se kombuis gegroet “want dit is hoe ons grootgeword het .”

Dit het hom drie jaar geneem om Op pad na die galg te skryf en hy sê sy siel is beslis ligter noudat hy oor van sy ervarings geskryf het.

Hy dink wel alreeds aan ’n volgende boek, maar Sue is nie so seker nie. Sy is trots op wat hulle vermag het, maar sê sy wil nou terugkom na party van haar eie ander belangstellings.

“Sy stry nog met my,” sê Fanie met ’n glimlag.

“Die toekoms sal maar moet bepaal of ons nog ’n galgboek sal sien.”

V Fanie se twee boeke kan direk by hom gekoop word.

Die eerste boek, In die skadu van die galg, kos R200 en Op pad na die galg kos R280. Diegene wat albei boeke gelyk koop, kry R50 afslag. Kontak hom en Sue by 021 919 2939 of stuur ’n e-pos na fansu@telkomsa.net.

ix dogs of Fisantekraal Animal Welfare (FAW) are now more than ever urgently looking for forever homes.

This came after Uitsig Animal Rescue Centre on a farm near Melkbosstrand has now finally been given notice on Saturday 17 October and all 75 remaining dogs (including FAW’s six dogs) must be off the property by 17 January.

According to Jenni Davis, spokesperson for FAW, they have been trying to rehome these dogs for years.

In a post on the Facebook page of Uitsig Animal Rescue Centre a spokesperson of the organisaton said their landlord delivered a notice of termination of the lease agreement on Saturday 17 October, giving them three months to vacate the farm and relocate the animals presently housed on the premises.

“We’re at our wit’s end because we don’t really know what else we can do to home them in two months when we haven’t had any luck in years,” Davis says.

“Understandably, now, with the economic fall-out caused by lockdown, it is not an easy time to rehome any animals, let alone older shelter dogs,” she says.

FAW has waived its normal adoption fee for those six dogs.

“However, we are encouraging people to ‘name their fee’ – bearing in mind the dogs are sterilised, vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped, which all costs money and we are a welfare relying on donations,” she says.

“I must just emphasise that there will still be strict procedures in place regarding the application, home checks and contract. People might wonder why, if we are ‘desperate’ to rehome them, do we make it ‘harder’ for people by doing a home check.

“They are great dogs! They’re not a ‘problem’ that needs to go away. They deserve us making the effort to find the good homes that they should have. Also, we need to make

“We don’t want people to take in a dog and then feel unhappy that it just isn’t the right fit for them,” she says.

“Shelter dogs sometimes need reminders on house training and on how to be part of a family. To that end, we also provide assistance with a dog behaviourist,” she says.

According to Wilsia Metz of Uitsig Animal Rescue Centre the public response to their plight has been positive. Most dogs will be taken in by Fallen Angels, another animal welfare organisation down the road.

“We are homing many dogs and finding fosters for many more. Uitsig will remain involved with these dogs, even when they are with Fallen Angels, to help find homes for them and make sure that they have the required veterinary care.

“We have had many offers of homes for dogs, as well as generous donations of food and funds for veterinary care.

New parking at library T

here may finally be a solution to the problem of parking at Bellville Library.

The City of Cape Town has allocated 10 parking bays for the exclusive use for visitors to the library centre.

Three workers from the Expanded Public Works Programme (EPWP) have been monitoring the parking situation since 20th October.

Patrons can approach them upon arrival and ask about parking.

Once the 10 bays are full, patrons will be allowed to park inside the enclosed staff area. This development comes as a welcome relief to an institution plagued by this specific problem for years.

The large library has become notorious

for its lack of parking for visitors, as motorists use the limited space for the hospital, nearby court and businesses.

For years people have complained about the issue and it has meant a steady decline in visitor numbers.

The library itself offers a lot: it’s one of the biggest libraries in the Western Cape, with a reference section many have raved about, it houses an art gallery and many attend art classes at the centre.

In a heartbreaking flyer advertising the new arrangement, the library invites people to come to the library again.

“Please visit us; we miss our patrons.”

Ilze Swart, former chief librarian and part of the Friends of the Library, welcomes the initiative.

“Anything is better than nothing.”

She says the project is admirable and she hopes it’s just the beginning of more parking bays being made available.

She’d also like to see the EPWP marked more clearly and she hopes they get the proper training to keep out those who may be intimidating or want to misuse the system.

The Voortrekker Road Corridor Improvement District (VRCID) previously applied to manage the parking and keep the area clean of litter and illegal structures. This proposal was rejected by the City.

Derek Bock, CEO of the VRCID, says they welcome any initiative to better manage the parking situation at the library.

“The library has lost many patrons because there has been no control over parking.”

Gallery presents work inspired by distancing Showing socially distant art, a group exhibition, Apart / A Part, will take place from 11 November at Art.b Gallery.

Says Laurette de Jager, curator of the exhibition: “This year has forced us to live, create and become apart. As the pandemic crept across the globe, the reality of living separate lives crawled into the global consciousness, like an ever advancing flood.

Yet, as humanity has been forced to be Apart, we remain A Part of the greater whole. The uncertainty, the loss of surefootedness, the general feeling of the very earth shifting constantly, only served as confirmation that nothing will ever be certain again.”

According to De Jager, storytellers, illustrators, creators responded by observing, researching and reflecting on the new social reality. “We did what we do best – we made meaning of an utterly incomprehensible reality. Months into the pandemic, the first lockdown themed exhibitions started appearing. Galleries, both locally and abroad, strove to regain some footing by launching online exhibitions, almost universally with a lockdown theme.”

De Jager continues that the intention is

not to explore the banality nor the cliché of lockdown art. “The intention of this group exhibition is to delve into the human psyche, to explore the longing, the reflection and the horror of living socially distant lives. As artists, we almost universally create in isolation. Solitude provides rich and fertile soil for creation and we’re not strangers to it. What has become apparent over the past few months, is an interesting manifestation of the longing of the human psyche for connection.”

Participating artists include Gwenneth Miller, Hannalie Taute, Hermann Niebuhr, Marlise Keith, Judy Woodborne, Marike Kleynscheldt, Monique Day-Wilde, Paula Louw, Susan Grundlingh, Stian Bam, Tiaan van Deventer, Veronica Reid and Ydi Coetsee Carstens.

Art.b (Arts Association of Bellville) is a community orientated and innovative organisation, sensitive to new ideas and supportive of established and emerg-

ing artists from all cultural backgrounds.

“Every year we’re astonished with the quality of works at our exhibitions. We create a platform for and showcase visual art and artists in the Western Cape to raise public awareness of art. We’d like to invite everyone to support our not-for-profit gallery and artists,” Anne Wells concludes.

VThe exhibition will open on 11 November at 18:30 for 19:00 at Art.b Gallery which is situated inside Bellville Library Centre, Carel van Aswegen Rd, Bellville. Contact the gallery manager at artb@artb.co.za or 021 917 1197 or visit the website at www.artb.co.za for more information.

Moths se potte prut vir welsyn D

ie potte het behoorlik gekook by die potjiekoskompetisie van Pro Patria-Shellhole van die Memorable Order of Tin Hats (Moth) in Durbanville op Saterdag 31 Oktober.

Verskeie spanne was opgetooi volgens hul tema. Die potjiekoskompetisie is gehou om geld in te samel om onder meer militêre veterane by te staan.

Die beoordelaars was Stewart Hardie, ’n MasterChef-beoordelaar en voormalige sjef van Spier, Brett Nussey, ’n MasterChef-beoordelaar en eienaar van Stir Crazy Cooking School, en Kevin Vos, lid van Pro Patria-Shellhole in Durbanville.

Moth is in 1927 deur Charles Evenden gestig as ’n broederskap van Suid-Afrikaanse voormalige militêre dienspligtiges en oudsoldate.

Die ideaal is om kamerade in nood te help – finansieel of fisies, en om alle dienspligtiges te onthou wat hul lewe gegee het, beide in oorlog én vredestyd.

Pro Patria se lede is ’n groep jong en dinamiese oudsoldate en militêre dienspligtiges.

Pro Patria vergader elke derde Dinsdag van elke maand in die Tafelronde-saal op die hoek van Sportstraat en Fairtreesweg, Durbanville (oorkant die Durbanville-gholfbaan).

Minister veroordeel geweld DESIRÉE RORKE @dezzierorke

E

mosie en spanning het Maandagoggend hoog geloop by die Hoërskool Brackenfell toe sowat 500 inwoners al van vroegoggend af by die skool bymekaar gekom het, in afwagting van EFF-lede vir ’n betoging voor die skool.

Die EFF het sedert Vrydag twee betogings by die skool gehou om hul ongelukkigheid oor ’n matriekdans, wat net deur wit kinders bygewoon is, uit te spreek (sien voorbladstorie).

Dié party het ook verlede week geëis dat die skoolhoof, Jannie Muller, se kop moet rol en die dienste van nog twee onderwysers wat die geselligheid bygewoon het, opge-

skort moet word.

Die polisie, verkeerslui en lede van die Stad se wetstoepassingseenheid en private gewapende-reaksie- lede het sedert 07:00 gereed gestaan, terwyl matrieks aan die ander kant van die skoolhekke gereed gemaak het vir ’n vraestel in die matriek-eindeksamen. ’n Groep motorfietsryers het aan die oorkant van Frans Conradie-rylaan bymekaar gekom en die straat reg voor die skoolhekke is deur die polisie versper.

Teen 10:00 het klein groepies EFF-lede by die skool aangekom en teen 10:45 was daar ’n groep van sowat 50.

Dit het nie lank geneem voordat betogers en inwoners mekaar lelik en in kru taal begin uitjou het nie. Kort voor lank is ’n paar kruitdanse met gebalde vuiste uitgevoer en

keer op keer moes die polisie rookgranate gooi om die groepe uitmekaar te hou. ’n Skermutseling of drie het op die grasperk langs en om “Eli se Kruisie” plaasgevind op die hoek van Frans Conradie-rylaan en sommige betogers het inwoners met klippe bestook terwyl dié mense betogers met stokke verjaag het.

Die wit kruisie voor die Laerskool Brackenfell is in 2015, ironies genoeg deur dieselfde gemeenskap, opgerig ter herinnering aan klein Eli Mazibuko, ’n 11-jarige leerder van die Laerskool Brackenfell wat tragies gesterf het toe sy in Julie daardie jaar op die hoek van Frans Conradie-rylaan deur ’n motor raakgery is.

Die polisie het die meeste van die skermutselings vinnig ontlont en twee inwoners is

in hegtenis geneem – een wat sy vuurwapen uitgehaal het en ’n ander wat met ’n haelgeweer rondgestap het. Toe die polisie sy motor deursoek het, is nog vuurwapens gevind.

Teen druktyd het die Brackenfell-polisie nog nie die inhegtenisnemings bevestig nie.

Debbie Schäfer, minister van onderwys in die provinsie, sê die gewelddadige botsings is onaanvaarbaar.

“Ek is diep ontsteld oor wat buite die Hoërskool Brackenfell plaasgevind het oor ’n private matriekafskeid wat gereël is deur ouers van leerders wat die skool bygewoon het,” het sy in ’n verklaring aan die media gesê.

“Ek veroordeel ten sterkste die optrede van die EFF-lede en die ouers buite die skool wat geweld gebruik het om hul kommer uit te druk. Gewelddadige aanvalle is eenvoudig nie aanvaarbaar nie en sal geensins ons leerders bevoordeel nie. Geweld is ook nie die oplossing vir meningsverskille nie. Partye moet op ’n verantwoordelike en volwasse manier met mekaar praat,” sê sy.

Grocery worker publishes book NIELEN DE KLERK @nielendk

B

y day he works in the stockroom of a grocery store.

It’s at night when the magic begins.

Then Oegeng Frank Bantsijang (50) starts painting and writing his children’s stories, which he hopes will inspire the younger generation to stay in school.

Frank, as he is known at the Pick n Pay in Willowbridge where he works, recently self-published his first “real” book – in four different South African languages.

Titled The Day Naledi Went To School, the story follows the life of Naledi, a girl who grows up in Mafikeng (now Mahikeng) and who finally attends school, after initially having her reservations.

Feeling the message was so important it needed to be shared in as many languages as possible, he asked his wife Nosisi Sododile to help with the Xhosa translation. A colleague, Shaquille Philander, helped translate it into Afrikaans. Frank’s mother tongue is Setswana and he wrote the book in that language before translating it into English.

Frank, who grew up in a village called Madibogo, close to Mahikeng, says he used a lot of his own background as inspiration for the story.

He knows the feeling of hardship and having no money, just like Naledi. He knows the importance of going to school too.

He was inspired to write this specific book when he saw children begging along the road. Frank has been living in Wallacedene in Kraaifontein for almost 30 years and on his commute to Willowbridge, this is a daily sight.

“I wanted to talk to them and tell them school is important.”

He also has three children – ironically named in every language spoken in their house – Ayabonga (23), Lebogang (19) and Gift (7).

Frank only started school when he was 11 years old. His parents were farm labourers and later fell on hard times, leading to Frank quitting school when he was in Grade 11.

Until then he would walk a round trip of 12 km per day just to get to and back from GS Phoi High School.

He left for Cape Town soon after, searching for a job that could help them all.

Yet he never forgot the feeling of empowerment school gave him. It was also at school when he first started noticing his artistic talent. He remembers feeling proud when teachers asked him to draw sketches with which they would illustrate concepts.

When in Cape Town, he started working for a persian carpet store and he approached his boss’ friend who was an artist about his work. The friend, whose number

The four different books. One is in English, one in Afrikaans, one in Xhosa and one in Setswana.

PHOTOS: NIELEN DE KLERK he recently lost when his phone was stolen, started giving him free weekly art lessons.

His boss would drive him there.

Soon after, though, the Persian carpet store closed. It took some time, but in 2011 he ended up working for Angelo Melonas, who owned two Pick n Pay stores – one in Welgemoed and one in Boston.

Angelo later sold these stores and became an owner of the Willowbridge Pick n Pay. In the process he hand-picked his best personnel, including Frank, to come and work in his new store.

“He’s very quiet, but we miss him when he’s not there,” Angelo says, beaming with pride.

Frank recently went on a course offered by his store and Fisantekraal Centre for Development (FCD). It’s here that Angelo first noticed Frank thought much more deeply and positively about things than many of his peers.

“One day he showed up in my office with this published book and it totally surprised me. He didn’t ask for any help from my side.

I asked him where het got the drawings and he said he did them himself.”

Angelo believes Frank could become a full-time artist. He’s been inspired by Frank’s message on various levels.

“Here is this guy, earning a living wage, and he’s hopeful about the future.”

Frank explains he saved up for quite a while before paying the printer and graphic designer for the book. His wife, Nosisi, also helped with funds.

He used his phone to write and take pictures of a lot of his work as he doesn’t have a laptop – that is, until his phone was stolen a few weeks ago.

Frank has been published once before – in 2006 a total of seven short stories were published consecutively in Drum magazine’s children section.

After that he wanted to give up. He didn’t have the money or resources to carry on fulfilling his dream. Yet, something made him carry on, and holding the physical book in his hand is a feeling he can’t describe.

He first received his copies in October and is now selling them for R100 each.

This is his legacy, he believes, for if he dies, he wants children to know the magic of going to school. . Frank will be selling his book (for R100) outside Pick n Pay Willowbridge this coming Saturday morning, 14 November, at 11:00

SLICE OF LIFE

Waar is al die grootmense heen?

Noem my nou maar mal, maar ek het regtig as kind gedink al die grootmense het die lewe al uitgefigure teen die tyd wat hulle iets soos 20 jaar oud word.

Dit is seker een van die grootste ontnugterings van my lewe om te besef mense het wraggies nie ’n clue nie.

Moet hormone nie al teen daai tyd afgekoel het nie? Is dit nie hoekom jy laer kar-versekeringspremies betaal wanneer jy 25 tref nie?

Maar nee, hier kry ons ’n situasie waar twee groepe grootmense (waarvan meeste ouer as 25 lyk) mekaar gaan staan en aanval buite ’n hoërskool – tydens ’n matriek-eindeksamen.

Verstaan mooi, ek is nie aan die EFF of die bakleiende troep khaki-mans se kant nie. Ek is aan die skoolkinders se kant.

Het niemand nog daaraan gedink dat hierdie ’n ongelooflike stresvolle jaar is waar hierdie skoolkinders gewoond moes raak aan maskers, handwas en reëls wat gedurig verander nie? Hulle was by die skool en toe by die huis en toe by die skool en moes aanpas by digitale leer en wie weet selfs wanneer universiteite begin?

My kop draai net aan die gedagte van matriek wees in 2020.

Ek weet, ek weet, jy as EFF-man of baklei-ouer het ook jou issues (anders sou jy nie vroegoggend op ’n Maandag buite ’n skool gaan staan en baklei het nie) maar regtig? Is dit waar ons land nou is?

Is dit waar ons samelewing nou is?

Kom ek spel dit gou uit vir die mense wat dit nog nie verstaan nie. ’n Groep ouers het ’n privaatfunksie gehou vir matrieks omdat die lot een van die min hoogtetpunte van hul jaar misloop. Nou is daar glo leerders wat nie weens hul velkleur na die funksie genooi is nie (hoewel hierdie ten sterkste deur organiseerders ontken word). Indien dit waar is en my vel ’n ander kleur was, sou ek regtig baie hartseer gewees, dis waar.

Maar betoog? I don’t know. Hoekom nie eerder die beste, grootste teen-partytjie hou nie? En nee, ek speel nie af die absolute pyn wat so ’n hipotetiese gebeurtenis op enigiemand kan hê nie.

Dit sou verkeerd wees, op hordes vlakke, maar kom ons kyk na drie punte. En hierdie is drie goed wat ek gedurig vir my vierjarige sê: 1. Het dit so gebeur?

Wie sê? Kan ons die segsman se woord vetrou? 2. Hoekom reageer jy so? 3. Is daar ’n beter manier om te reageer?

Want sien, iewers het ons ’n verwronge speletjie van telefoontjie begin speel, want weet jy regtig wat gebeur het?

Kan ons ophou om oor halwe waarhede te betoog en eerder begin eis dat die regering ons dit terugbetaal wat deur korrupsie gesteel is – selfs net gedurende hierdie Covid-tydperk. Ons praat van miljarde rande, boetie. Miljarde.

Maar nou maak ons issues waar daar nie issues hoef te wees nie, nou skep ons ’n rassekwessie waar daar nie noodwendig een was nie. En as daar ’n rassekwessie in Brackenfell is, hoekom laat ons hulle dit nie uitsorteer nie? Hoekom buite-mense inkry om hul gevegte te kom klaarmaak. En daardie mans en gemeenskapslede wat die EFF ingewag het om te baklei, watter voorbeeld stel jy nou eintlik? Ja, jy’s vreeslik macho in jou kortbroek en khaki-hemp, maar wraggies.

Het jy nou regtig die eer beskerm van jou dorp? Deur dit sinoniem te maak met Brakpan? Kan Brackenfell nie veel eerder sinoniem wees met vrede en liefde nie? Kan die skoolkinders nie maar met die grootmense kom praat oor wat beter maniere is om konflik te hanteer nie?

Want wraggies, as hierdie ons grootmense is, het ons hulle nie nodig nie.

Bring vir my die kinders, die tieners, laat hulle eerder praat. – Nielen de Klerk

Thieving duo on the prowl This is a warning to all my fellow-readers of TygerBurger – especially those in the Goodwood area.

The two “aspiring” thieves who intend stealing your possessions and money, with your permission, after being invited into your home, are at it again. They wear yellow over-jackets and carry a clipboard, wanting to enter the home to “check” or “inspect” the electrical plugs or the switchboard. They even have a little “song and dance routine” asking you to confirm your house number with the one then asking the other – “are you sure it’s number 00?”

“Yes” says the other one, as if to put the homeowner at ease. Hulle praat ook Afrikaans! I so wish that someone could photograph them so that we all know who they are. Please beware!

Worry of cruelty towards animals Wehahn Geldenhuys seems to enjoy essay writing and has explained in detail how troublesome cats are and how unprofessional cat owners are (“Kattekwaad lei tot erge buretwis”, 28/10).

Miniature lions indeed, but I have never been bitten and the odd unfortunate prey has been rescued as the proud hunter has always come to show me the catch. Staying mostly on the property, they soon learn where they are not welcome.

Those of us who understand cats, and it is clear that many complainants do not, will be rewarded with tremendous love and loyalty.

The Siamese was prominent in ancient Egypt and

now suddenly they are a threat and cat owners need disciplining. It is the cruelty to animals that should be the subject of contention and worry and not a reader’s dislike of a pet species.

Speelparkie lyk soos veld My meisie en ek het onlangs in die strate van Boston in Bellville gaan stap met ons getroue woefies, Hachi en Louis, toe ons met absolute skok sien hoe die speelparkie in Tweede Laan lyk.

Die gras is verskriklik lank en dit lyk of dit maande laas gesny is. Dit lyk in groot dele van die parkie inderwaarheid soos ’n veld.Dit het ons dadelik laat wonder hoekom ons belastinggeld dan nie meer gereeld gebruik word om hierdie nabygeleë parkie en ander soos dié se gras te sny nie.

Die ander gedagte wat amper onmiddellik by my opgekom het, is die feit dat sulke lang gras tot ander gevare kan lei. Wat as ’n skobbejak-verkragter in daardie lang gras lê en wag vir ’n slagoffer? Iemand kan maklik daar oorval en aangerand of verkrag word.

BEKOMMERDE BELLVILLIET

Stel self voorbeeld Ek stem só saam met Irene van Kraaifontein (“Maak sypaadjie self skoon”, TygerBurger, 21 Oktober) en Johan Greeff (“Sorg vir jou erf”, TygerBurger, 21 Oktober).

Nog al die jare sny my man self sy gras, vee die sypaadjie en in die pad langs die sypaadjie. Wat het van ons respek (of selfrespek) geword?

As ek by ons erf indraai, voel ek trots op ons omgewing.

Wees jy die voorbeeld!

INWONER Bellville

City’s response to Covid-19 Over the past seven months, every resident has been impacted by the coronavirus pandemic and each municipality across the globe has had to respond to the crisis as effectively and strategically as possible.

Six months before the Covid-19 crisis, the City of Cape Town launched its resilience strategy across the city and I cannot stress enough how grateful I am that we were equipped with such a robust and strategic planning tool to confront such a time as this. The level of competence and strategic direction provided to the administration by the transversal team led by the chief resilience officer has truly been commendable.

The strategy classifies a pandemic as an acute shock, which is a sudden sharp event that threatens a city.

As an administration, we had to respond to this acute shock in the most collaborative way possible, which we did by incorporating 20 of the actions in the resilience strategy into our transversal response.

I believe that we were able to cope with the extreme pressures we were faced with so far because, as a municipality, we have always prioritised being a collaborative and forward-looking administration.

Our resilience strategy is therefore dedicated to underlying processes and behaviours required by the City government to improve resilience across a wide portfolio of projects.

This way, we ensured that resilience considerations had already been incorporated into our processes and started fostering resilience thinking into decision-making for some time already.

Cape Town is the only city among the members of the Global Resilient Cities Net-

work that has a dedicated focus on processes and behaviours to build resilience, irrespective of which shocks or stresses are being addressed.

The focus area of our strategy was deliberate, and followed deep reflection following the City’s response to the citywide drought.

The City’s Covid-19 transversal response took a portfolio approach to implementation. There are several programmes and projects supported by project managers and the entire response has been guided by the principles of resilience, including the need to create redundancies, to be integrated, to be flexible and to be robust.

The resilience department hosted a workshop with 25 City staff early in March to map the possible disruptions of the coronavirus on a range of City systems.

A report was produced, and this work birthed the pandemic business continuity committee, which has been chaired by the City’s resilience director.

Adaptive management remained a key founding principle in our response as the pandemic is multi-directional in nature.

Operational responses at times had to be adapted almost on a weekly basis as the trajectory of the pandemic adjusted.

Looking ahead towards our road to recovery, scenarios for recovery have now been endorsed by the City’s leadership and its mayoral committee.

Many of the actions in the resilience strategy and tools that have been developed thus far will most definitely guide our priorities during the recovery period and our response to the future trajectory of the Covid-19 pandemic in the city.

KILLARNEY: WET WEATHER SERVES UP EXCITING RESULTS

Maiden winners thrill T

he rain gods played the game and kept Killarney dry just long enough for the sixth round Western Province Rotax Max Challenge Karting regionals to deliver fast and exciting action on Saturday 7 November.

A full programme saw a few expected results, but more than one racer left the Cape Town track delighted with best-ever performances and first wins under the belt.

Jason Coetzee took two wins to one to beat newly-crowned South African champion Sebastian Boyd to premier class DD2 gearbox honours.

That did little to help Coetzee close the gap on Boyd in the regional title race as Sebastian continued his preparations for DD2 Grand Finals in Portugal in January next year.

A delighted Andrew Thomas not only won his first-ever DD2 Masters race in Saturday’s second heat, but he did enough to take the day overall.

Title fighters Jason Greyling and championship leader Conor Hughes shared out the other wins to second and third ahead of Jared Jordan and Robert Peche.

It was a good weekend for the Visser boys – elder brother Charl and the rest of the Senior Max field benefited from Tate Bishop taking an early race 1 shower to win the second race.

He beat Jason Coetzee, Storm Lanfear, Andre le Riche and the returning Kohen Bam overall.

Joaquin de Oliveira won three u.13 Mini Max races.

His race 2 exit did little to SA champion Bishop’s WP title lead. He won the other two heats, while his null score freed up a second place from his dropped worst results.

Younger Visser brother Kyle cemented his u.15 Junior championship lead with a

couple of wins and a second to take the day.

The happiest kid in that class was however an elated Andre le Riche, who took his first win in race 2 en route to second overall.

Brother Kyle le Riche also impressed with a final race win en route to third ahead of

Return to training gathers pace Western Province Club Rugby circles are engaging on various methods of return to training, which provisionally has been set for the new year.

“This week saw us meet with our various leagues again to discuss the return to training options as per the Covid-19 regulations.

This is not an easy process, but compliance and the health and safety of our members will always be our top priority,” says manager of WP Amateur Rugby Danny Jones.

SA Rugby and government regulations

require that each club must have a compliance officer, which has resulted in the union embarking on a Covid-19 awareness and education process, which includes the adoption of World Rugby’s free Covid-19 awareness course, which carries a certification.

“We understand that documentation is a major factor for return to training and as such we are constructing various online solutions which will help the clubs to get their players back on the park in a safe

manner,” says Jones.

Following the completion of the SA Rugby u.21 tournament last week, the junior format has now changed to u.20, which will see coach Jerome Paarwater commencing benchmark testing at the high-performance centre next week.

“Players will receive programmes relating to strength and conditioning applicable to home-based preparation. We are very happy to see that several of these players come from our club rugby ranks and have

New 5K series hits local streets Excitement was abound as runners kicked off the 5K Pop Up Run #2 powered by Puma on Friday 6 November.

Consisting of four bi-weekly 5km runs that will start and finish at a designated venue, each Pop-Up Run is limited to 70 runners to adhere to government regulations with the first 50 entries (per run) receiving a limitededition Run Your City Series (RYCS) T-shirt.

Runners who complete all four runs stand a chance to win their share in spectacular sponsor prizes. “If a runner cannot make it to the designated venue or if we reach capacity, he/she is welcome to take part virtually,” says Michael Meyer, managing director of Stillwater Sports, who organises the event. In other words, they can run anywhere, take photographs and share them to social media. They won’t receive the RYCS T-shirt, but they will be eligible to win sponsor prizes. This week’s colour theme is orange. We are excited to continue the spirit of the RYCS by hosting the Friday 5K Pop Up Run Series powered by Puma,” says Puma marketing director Brett Bellinger. “With

four runs taking place bi-weekly from October to December, runners are granted the perfect opportunity to catch up with like-minded individuals while enjoying a 5km run.

We would, however, like to remind all runners to please adhere to legal Government Regulations for exercise.”

How to be eligible to win: . Take a photograph after each run, either wearing the “colour themed” RYCS T-shirt or any T-shirt in that colour. . Upload the photograph to the RYCS social media platforms together with a caption that answers the question “Why do you run?” . Tag Ctown12, Durban10k, Joburg10K and @PUMASouthAfrica . Use the hashtags: #RunYourCity #ForeverFaster . Winners will be announced at the end of the series.

Ethan Stier and Matthew Wadeley, who both had podiums on the day too, and Reza Levy.

Levy meanwhile consolidated his u.13 Mini Max title advantage with fourth on the day as he left Ethan Deacon and Joshua Smit to fight it out behind Joaquin de Oliveira, who streaked to a trio of race wins to take the day.

Jordon Wadeley and Jude Stuart rounded out the top six.

Keagan Beaumont was another driver to deliver a first win and then another, to take the day too. Runaway championship leader Reese Koorzen consolidated his title lead with a final race win, a second and a third ahead of Jordon Wadeley, who was on the podium all day long too.

Dale Hobbs, Joshua Smit and Sabelo Ntuli closed off the top six.

Aiden Beaumont and Kai van Rensburg arrived at Killarney even points in their epic baby Bambino championship duel and both won again. Beaumont did so twice however, to take the day and take a three-point lead home.

Michael Danks, Siyabonga Ntuli, Sebastiano Human and John Norman were next up. A number of Cape Town’s karters will make the trip to Alberton’s Formula K Raceway in search of wildcard tickets to Portimao’s ‘Olympics of Karting’ at the Rotax Max African Open this weekend.

The seventh and presumably final round of the WP follows on Saturday 21 November.

already gained some experience playing in the u.21 championships,” he says, adding that this week sees the start of World Rugby Fifteens level 1 coaching course at Newlands, with the next course on Friday 20 November. The deadline for the course is Friday 13 November.

“I remind our members that the health and safety of our members is our first priority and in order for us to move forward with a continued approach to follow protocols the education of our members is currently a priority, and that our members must not delay in undergoing the online World Rugby Covid awareness course.”
