According to a high-ly reliable source the accused, Moses Veiko (31) represented em-ployees of Schweiz-erhaus Café Anton, Swakopmund, in a salary increment ne-gotiation, on behalf of

Nafau. The newspaper learned that workers at Café Anton approached their Union to negoti-ate for an 8.5 percent salary hike. Café Anton was apparently willing to offer an eight per-

cent increment. While negotiations were on-going, Veiko suppos-edly approached the representative of Café Anton, asking her to convince the business’ management to pay him an amount of N$5

000, promising that he will then in return convince the workers to accept the eight per-cent increment. He af-terwards raised the bar to N$7 000, believing that he has convinced her and the manage-

He spoke to the namib times from Cape Town, after the official launch of the Cape Town leg of the flight plan. Return flights between Windhoek and Johan-nesburg and Windhoek and Cape Town, taxes included, will cost around N$2 000.

Strydom said prices for return flights to and from Walvis Bay would cost more or less the same.He confirmed that they are definitely looking at the introduction of direct flights between Walvis Bay and Windhoek, and that they would also con-

tinue their quest to have direct flights from Eros Airport, to Walvis Bay, Johannesburg and Cape Town, re-instated. Stry-dom says they have been trying for the last six to seven years, to realise this. “Nomad has been operat-ing a successful airline in Namibia since 1989, but

we have always wanted to offer more to the trav-elling public. Our partnership with fly-africa.com delivers what we have always wanted: low fares and exceptional service. Travellers to Namibia have paid too much for too long and the launch

of Namibia flyafrica will change that,“ he was quoted in an earlier press release.Flyafrica.com will op-erate daily flights from Windhoek to Johannes-burg from Monday 2 Feb-ruary 2015. Strydom told us the Cape Town flights would com-

mence a few weeks later, and by mid-2015, direct flights from Walvis Bay would hopefully bring welcome relief to flyers.Sales via flyafrica.com have commenced on 21 October 2014 and travel agency sales would fol-low soon after, according to the media release.

Cheaper coastal direct flights, soon

Maria Davel-WallisThe CEO of the Namibian partner of Namibia flyafrica, Clifford Strydom of Nomad Aviation, has confirmed to the namib times that the airline will be introducing direct flights from Walvis Bay to Johannesburg and Cape Town by mid-2015.

The parent, who does not want to be named, in fear of victimisation of his two children, alleges that his Grade 3 son was playing marbles with class mates on the school grounds during the week, when an argument broke out. The argument supposedly degenerated into a fight and escalated to a point where the concerned par-ent’s son was thrown onto rocks and beaten. According to the parent the other kid, who is in the same class as his son, pro-ceeded to strangle the boy. “At that moment another child had to pull the kid off my son. My son is traumatised be-cause of this and may have to see a doctor because his arm is injured. To what ex-tent, I won’t know till we get confirmation from the doctor,” the parent com-mented. He further noted that he

understood the fact that kids, “at times need to fight their own battles, but where is the control and discipline at the school,” he asked.He alleged that that was one of many incidents that occurred at the school dai-ly. “One of my colleges re-moved his kid from the same school, just after the first term of this year, be-cause of bullying. Teachers and the principal can do nothing about it”. His other child (Grade 1) was apparently also beat-en over his lunchpack, earlier this year, at the same school.“Bullying is rife at this school and I am not sure the headmaster can control the kids - I am seriously considering removing my children and looking for other schools,” the parent told the namib times.“I am uttering my dis-

may in the hope that other parents, who have been in this position, can take steps to protect their kids against this evil that no one can seem to resolve”, he appealed. The disgruntled father concluded by saying that the rich history of aca-demic excellence of Na-mib Primary, was one of the reasons he brought his children there.The newspaper contact-ed the school’s principal, yesterday and when asked if she was aware of this incident, or of alleged bullying at the school, she demanded the parent’s name. The reporter informed her that he was not endorsed to reveal his source/s, whereafter she said that she would not give any comment and ended the call.

ment. The Anti-Corrup-tion Commission in Swakopmund was informed and a sting operation to set a trap for the accused, was arranged. Veiko al-legedly communica-ted with the repre-sentative and they agreed on a ren-dezvous to “clinch” the deal. He requested for a cash cheque to be hand delivered at the agreed place in Mondesa, Swakop-mund. The ACC apprehended the ac-cused, while he was receiving the cheque. The newspaper con-tacted NAFAU’s de-puty General Mana-ger, Ms Wilma Angu-la, yesterday, but she noted that she was not aware of such a case, yet. The matter was postponed to 11 Fe-bruary 2015 for legal aid representation and further investigation.

Hierdie tragiese voorval het Dinsdag in Swakop-mund se Mondesa-woon-buurt plaasgevind. Vol-gens Hoof-inspekteur Erastus Iikuyu het die verdagte en sy meisie die betrokke namiddag op hul bed gelê, met die babadogtertjie ook op die bed. Die kind se ma

het blykbaar haar buur-vrou met ‘n werkie gaan help en ongeveer vyftien minute later teruggekeer, waarna sy waargeneem het dat Gaoseb bo-op die baba lê en slaap. Daar word vermoed dat hy onder die invloed van al-kohol was, noem Iikuyu. Sy het blykbaar probeer

om hom van die baba af te kry, maar hy het skyn-baar in ‘n diepe slaap verkeer. Sy kon eers na ‘n gesuk-kel daarin slaag om hom weg te skuif, maar moes tot haar skok ontdek dat die baba nie meer asem haal nie. ‘n Moorddos-sier is geopen.

Liesl Losper

After the CEO of the Walvis Corridor Group (WBCG), Johny Smith, has been named by CEO Communications as the Continental winner in the sector of Logis-tics in October, the namib times wanted to share with him his vision as an acclaimed African leader.

ating opportunities for the transport and logistics sector via Namibia and thereby growing the econo-mic contribution of the sector.We posed several questions to the man who has been identi-fied as Africa’s CEO of the Year, from thou-sands of nominations from Africa: You were chosenover almost 11 500 nominations from 43 African states, and the judges called you an informed leader with a non-tradition-al approach… what makes you thus? I believe in chasing opportunities - In Na-mibia we have a rela-tively small economy in the global world and therefore we have to go out to the region-al and international market to draw peo-ple and companies to see the opportunities within Namibia. What was your big-

gest challenge in achieving this?The biggest challenge has been to convince the local industry in Namibia that we have an opportunity across the border, but also at the same time to convince importers and exporters in the region to use Nami-bia as an alternative, while the perception was there that at that time when we started, Walvis Bay was just known as a fishing port.Please share with us – who is your idol/the person/people who have inspired you/you look up to as an example…I believe that I have an inner strength to be a successful person and saw an opportunity. I had some important people who supported me all the way and it has been GOD and my wife, as well as others.What is your vision, for yourself as leader,

and for your compa-ny?We must learn as leaders not to look just in the short term, but towards the long term - We also need to make sure that we as leaders are not mak-ing selfish decisions, but decisions that in-fluence the economic development of our country.Smith said in the me-dia release on his achievement, “This could not come at a more opportune time where Namibia has incorporated into its national development plan 4, to develop Na-mibia as a Logistics Hub for the SADC region. I feel very blessed and honoured to receive this award as recog-nition for exploring the trade opportunities for other coutries via Namibia during the past eight years at the Walvis Bay Corridor Group."

A trusted source in-formed the newspa-pers on different oc-casions that Jan Japan Motors, commonly just referred to as Jan Japan, would be clo-sing its doors soon. “The company is closing down. I was informed that the Jan Japan vehicles would no longer be insured since the company was closing down and the warehouse would be handed over in December,” the source said.Several attempts to get hold of the ownerof Jan Japan in Wal-vis Bay were fruitless as he is apparently out of the country. However, staff mem-bers and a branch member of the com-pany spoke to us on his behalf, as he is out of the country at the moment.“This is a multi-mil-lion dollar company.

Fifty containers re-cently came in. It is impossible that the company is closing its doors,” a staff member of Jan Japan said.The reporter got hold of the manager of one of the branches in Walvis Bay (name known to the namib times, but withheld on request) who was also willing to com-ment on the matter.“The rumours being spread that the com-pany is closing down are all mere lies,” he said.When he was in-formed that there were additional ru-mours about the company possibly changing ownership, he rejected that, too, as being utterly false. He said he could not understand why people would spread such rumours, but he could state cate-

gorically that it was untrue. “This company has been helping people to buy cheap cars. As far as I am con-cerned, the company is not closing down nor is it changing ownership,” he said.Jan Japan has branch-es all over the world and is known for the cheap cars it sells, which, according to sources, could have led to Jan Japan put-ting other car dealer-ships out of business. According to many, the company has only benefited people along the coast.Another staff mem-ber of the company contacted the news-paper to deliver her opinion regarding these rumours.“Before I became an employee at the com-pany, I bought a car at Jan Japan. I can honestly say that this

company has only helped me as I would not have been able to buy a car if it was not for their cheap pri-ces. I believe that the rumours are spread by people envious of the company and its success and that they therefore want the company to close down. However, from what I am aware, the com-pany is not closing down nor is it chang-ing ownership,” she said.The newspaper con-tacted another source who said, “I cannot give any valid infor-mation regarding this situation as I really do not know. All I’ve heard was that the company would be changing ownership, but that, too, can be only a rumour,” she concluded.

According to a private company employee, who was also waiting in the line, the situation was extremely chaotic. The situation appar-ently escalated to the point where custom-ers had to swop staff members assigned to roadworthy tests, as a female staff member could no longer endure the chaos.Platt made the deci-sion to close the road-worthy station during the course of the day. According to him it seemed like the only way to bring the situa-tion under control.According to Platt, various customers in the queue did not be-have fairly – he said it had prevented his staff members from doing their job.When the reporter visited the site on that

specific day, one of the customers remarked, “NaTIS makes enough money to hire more people which will re-sult in the roadworthy testing process going faster. It cannot carry on like this. We stand here for hours and we are very frustrated. Something needs to change drastically”.A municipality spokes-person at the public relations department commented on this matter. “It was neces-sary to close the doors on that particular day to maintain order. Cur-rently NaTIS officials go beyond the call of duty to accommodate the high influx of ve-hicles by testing up to 50 vehicles and trucks per day, as opposed to the prescribed limit of 30 vehicles per day. It is also necessary to

consider that the same officials that conduct the testing should also capture the informa-tion the same day so that licenses and vehi-cle registration can be issued the next day. It is essential to note that we take the delivery of this particular service very seriously, because all vehicles tested ul-timately and directly involves the lives of pedestrians and drivers alike. It is thus crucial that testing officials are not disturbed while con-ducting tests on any vehicles. We therefore,call on those who come to have their ve-hicles tested, or for any other service at NaTIS, to remain in the queue, conduct themselves in an orderly manner and await their turn,” she concluded.

To be or not to beJan Japan Motors’ future in questionMadelaine Laubscher

The namib times has lately been informed on various occasions that a well-known car dealership, Jan Japan Motors, will allegedly either be closing its doors soon or will be changing owners. But, several Jan Japan Motors staff and management members have rejected the rumours, calling it malicious lies.

In September, the Na-mibian Police Force (NamPol) Detective In-spector in Walvis Bay, John Mwatongwe re-ported that three men, wearing police uni-forms, allegedly robbed the food outlet of N$40 440.On the day of the sus-pected robbery, the res-taurant manager told the

police that the suspects approached him as uni-formed police officers, but then pointed a gun at his face, handcuffed him and demanded money. The police have since been searching for the suspects, who have disappeared without a trace.On Wednesday, Mwa-

tongwe said there still have not been any ar-rests, and police inves-tigations continue.He said so far, there has not been much pro-gress because they do not have a strong lead, but they will continue to gather information which could lead to ar-rests.NAMPA

Members of the public alerted the namib times to look into this matter. The SPCA confirmed that the culprit – if and when identified - would definitely be charged with animal cruelty. The dog had two har-nesses around its neck that was physically stuck to its flesh – one seemed to have been on the dog since it was a puppy and never taken off or adjusted. A sec-ond harness on the dog caused the dog’s nose to get stuck in the harness. The dog was freed from

the harnesses through surgical procedures. Good news is that the dog will survive the ordeal, and not be put down, the wounds be-ing being serious but treatable.The volunteer kennel master said it was par-amount for people to be educated on how to treat animals properly.“Animal cruelty is a re-ality in Walvis Bay. It happens on a daily basis and needs to be prop-erly addressed through education and creating awareness,” he said.

A spokesperson of the SPCA urged anyone who might know any-thing about the dog, to contact the SPCA .“The person who caused this dog to end up with these wounds should be prosecuted. Such a per-son belongs in jail. We will protect the identity of anyone who has any information leading to the arrest of the culprit.” she said. According to the SPCA, members of the public have offered to give financial support with regard to the medi-cal costs.

Concealment of birth in Walvis BayMarshallino Beukes

Detective Inspector Mwatongwe confirmed this incident on Tues-day morning, noting that the incident took place on Monday, at around 15:30 in Opaal Street, Kuisebmond. He further comment-ed that the women was in her ninth month of

pregnancy, when giving birth. Her room-mate ar-rived home and noticed pools of blood in the bedroom, subsequent-ly alerting the police, Mwatongwe said. The women was un-der police watch in the Walvis Bay State Hos-

pital, after complica-tions were experienced during birth. She was discharged from the hospital on Wednesday morning and appeared in the Walvis Bay Magis-trate’s Court. Bail of N$2 000 was granted.

A 24-year old woman stands accused of concealment of birth or alternatively murder, after she gave birth to a baby girl on Monday afternoon, where after she supposedly put the newborn in a plastic bag and hid her under a bed, at her home.


The Lemon Tree Deli has been grow-ing in business, thus the owners, Belinda Burger and Donelia Esterhuizen, decided to invite local musi-cians to perform at the restaurant in order to promote them and to attract customers that take pleasure in listening to live music while enjoying their meal.They invited Made-laine after noticing her singing talent at a music festival that had recently been

held in Walvis Bay.According to her, the event was fun-filled and exciting and mo-tivated her to perform more frequently.“The musicians per-forming at the deli are rewarded with ‘tips’ from the audience. I have to say that the evening was a suc-cess. The people real-ly touched my heart. I am grateful for all the contributions that were given by them. Thank you very much. The crowd was really awesome. Thank you

A style of her ownStaff Reporter

On Wednesday night, local musician Madelaine Laubscher, performed at the Lemon Tree Deli in Walvis Bay, wowing the patrons with her acoustic performance.

to Belinda and Donelia for inviting me. I enjoy doing acoustic performances as I am able to make a song my own. It defines who I am and remains a personal challenge to always strive to im-

prove, and that is the pleasure behind it all. It feels good to take on a difficult song, to make it my own and to see the crowd enjoying it. I hope to only improve in my performances,” she concluded.

The project was aimed at educating the grade 8 girls on different topics that are related to teenage pregnancy namely: Self-esteem, Peer pressure, Teenage pregnancy, Contracep-tives, Baby dumping, Academic performance & dreams, Communica-tion & relationship with parents, house chores and Alcohol and drug abuse.The girls were educated on this topics through sessions that were con-ducted twice a week and thus to close off the project a mother and daughter “tea party” took place on 31 Oc-tober at the Duinesig Combined School hall. The aim of the “tea par-ty” was to discuss the importance of a moth-er and daughter rela-tionship in our society so that social problems such as teenage preg-nancy can be eradicated through open relation-ships where daughters

could feel free to talk to their mothers about any-thing and avoid seeking for advice from their peers. The theme of the tea party was “Be her role model”.Amongst the invited guests was the Mayor, school principal, life skills teachers, pastor, and social workers, girls accompanied by their mothers or guardians each. The event was opened with a powerful prayer by Prophet Ga-wanab a local pastor. It then proceeded with opening remarks by the Mayor where she nar-rated when they were growing up they were not privileged in those days and that children of today got many priv-ileges and opportuni-ties thus they needed to work hard and be suc-cessful one day. In her speech she also encour-aged mothers to be there for their daughters.The school principal Ms Lucas encouraged

the girls to avoid bad friends and leave be-hind the things of the world and focus on their school and future.The highlight of the event was the powerful message that was given by Ms Mapalo, a local pastor's wife, who em-phasised to the mothers to establish strong and close relationships with their daughters, she also touched on the role that tradition plays in our so-ciety as relationship and sex talk with our daugh-ters seem to be very dis-respectful as tradition would not let us.The event was con-cluded with a talk show which was a platform where the girls were posting questions to their parents and vice versa about issues they have and thoroughly discussed it with an in-put of the invited guests who were giving advice on a few mentioned issues during the talk show session.

Duinesig mother and daughter tea

In an attempt to reduce and eradicate teenage pregnancy after it has been identified as one of the major social problems within the Duinesig Combined School, a social worker intern student, Njomonee Tjihukununa, from the Ministry of Health and Social Services established a project called “The Crystal Rocks Girls”.


Obtaining Fishing Permits

Obtain a permit from the Namibian Ministry of Fisheries and Marine Resources (MFMR) to catch fish or dive for crayfish and respect harvesting limitations.WHY? The marine resources are limited and currently some of them are overfished or over collected. It is necessary that everybody uses them wisely and carefully to secure the future harvesting needs by protecting the stock. Quantity/number of marine resources harvestable, minimum size limits of fish and crayfish that can be caught, open season etc. help to manage stocks to avoid the total disappearance of some species in our waters.Do not leave bait or fish on the beach! Either take it home or return it to the sea. This food attracts scavengers like jackals and gulls that prey on other bio-diversity. When you are back home after the holiday, it also inflates the predator population. Where can you get a license for angling, crayfish diving & bait/mussels collection?

As a result of a coop-erative approach be-tween industry, gov-ernment and NGOs, new Namibian reg-ulations are set to massively reduce this impact in the hake fisheries.Globally 300 000 sea-birds are killed in longline and trawl fisheries where they are unintentionally hooked and drown on baited hooks, or are struck by trawl cables and dragged under water. Approximately 100 000 of these birds are albatross, the most threatened family of birds with 15 of 22 species at risk of ex-tinction.The Albatross Task Force (ATF) is part of BirdLife Interna-tional’s Marine Pro-gramme, and here it is implemented through the Namibia Nature Foundation (NNF).

The group works in the world’s global by-catch ‘hot spots’ with industry to introduce practical measures that, once in use, ra-pidly reduce the mor-tality of seabirds. The ATF has been working with the Min-istry of Fisheries and Marine Resources in Namibia since 2008. They have demonstra-ted that the combined levels of seabird mor-tality for hake longline and trawl fisheries is around 30 000 seabirds per year, which is one of the highest levels of mortality in the world. The good news is that the ATF has also demonstrated that the adoption of simple and cost-effective mitiga-tion measures in both these fisheries could reduce mortality to negligible levels. In the trawl fleet the use of bird scaring lines

with streamers that flap in the wind and scare birds away from the dangerous areas of a vessel is a simple solution that practical-ly eliminates seabird bycatch. In the longline fleet, this measure in com-bination with line weighting to sink the hooks away from for-aging birds and paired bird scaring lines, should reduce bycatch by over 95%. The Ministry of Fish-eries and Marine Re-sources has now taken a positive step toward reducing seabird by-catch in Namibia, by introducing new fish-ery regulations that

will require all trawl and longline vessels to use bird scaring lines, and for longline ves-sels to use improved line weighting. These new regulations are expected to be in effect as of the 1st No-vember 2014 and will drastically reduce the impact of these two fisheries on vulnerable seabirds.The fishing industry in Namibia, led by local fishing companies, has been cooperative with the proposed conser-vation measures, with several companies already adopting vol-untary use of the bird scaring lines. The introduction of

regulations will ensure the simple measures are adopted across the whole fleet. Namibia already has high levels of observer coverage in their fish-eries, which means it will be easy to identify compliance with these new regulations. This provides an ex-cellent example of how positive collabo-ration between conser-vation organisations, local government and responsible industry associations can make a huge contribution to sustaining global bio-diversity and reducing our impact on the ma-rine environment.

During her introductory remarks, the chairperson of ERRSF Ms Natalia/Go-agoses said it is support-ed by the National Road Safety Council of Nami-bia, “the first attempt is to try and see how we can reduce road accidents and tackle road safety issues” she said. ERRSF want to declare zero road accident deaths in the Erongo Region. The keynote speaker at this event was the Governor of Erongo Region Mr Cleop-has Mutjavikua. The governor said he is worried about the future of Namibia as our coun-try is known for tourist attractions and if we have

so many accidents on our roads, tourists will not come to our country any-more he noted. “A Namibian driver is the most impatient driver in the world and I want ana-lysts to look at it and give me feedback on why Na-mibian drivers are so im-patient” the Governor said. According to him the atti-tude of the drivers is the main cause of accidents on the roads. He also stated that it is proven that the number of tourists in Walvis Bay and Swakopmund will be double the number of last year this festive season and he is very worried about the traffic con-

gestion on the roads. Mr Haroldt Geiseb, the Director of Road Traffic Management Services said road safety will be taught in Namibian schools from Grade one to three next year. Senior Primary Syllabus for grade four to seven are received and approved by NIED ( Ministry of Edu-cation) and will be imple-mented in 2016. He also said the learners will be taught safety near roads, road signs, the law, com-munity road safety and traffic calming measures. Mr Geiseb said that chil-dren should be influenced on road safety from a ten-der age.

Liefie wil net aan al die spyse-niers noem, veral diegene wat die “corporate” funk-sies se tenders kry, dat die publiek glad nie beïndruk is met die gehalte diens wat gelewer is nie.

Liefie was die naweek in die teenwoordigheid van ander spyseniers wat self nie baie "hap-py" is nie, want hulle name word krater ge-maak deur dies wat dink hulle kan en wel nie kan nie. Dis nou ‘n taai een. Maar onthou tog vir die toekoms, as jy 10 mense tuis kan onthaal, maak jou nie ‘n gesoute “caterer” nie. Pasop, moenie julle vingers verbrand nie.

The N$126 million turn-around strategy, which has proven to be quite successful, was launched in May 2014 with the aim of improving operations at the ministry. The objective of the project was to ensure the shortest possible is-suing time for key doc-uments such as iden-tification documents (IDs), passports as well as birth, marriage and death certificates. The project is conduct-ed by consultants from South Africa’s Fever-Tree Consulting Com-pany.

At a media conference held here yesterday to celebrate 100 days of the turn-around strat-egy, the Minister of Home Affairs and Im-migration Pendukeni Iivula-Ithana said the entire backlog was eliminated because employees were work-ing overtime and ad-hering to strict perfor-mance targets. The first phase of the project focused on three key areas - front offices appearance, passports and ID pro-duction. (NAMPA)

MEDIA STATEMENTPOWER OUTAGE TO WALVIS BAY - SUNDAY, 9 NOVEMBER 2014

INFORMATION TO THE PLANNED POWER OUTAGE

This outage has mainly been reserved for NamPower to conduct final testing and operation of the Anixas- and Paratus Generation Stations together with the main electricity grid. The objective is to resolve all outstanding matters to ensure that the Generation and Grid could be operated in future with high confidence levels without any operation malfunction.

Erongo RED and NamPower had several discussions to identify all possible risks during this outage and formulated required action plans to ensure the power to the entire town will be fully restored within the specified time. Additional personnel will also be on site to coordinate at all levels.

During the next two years many planned outages could be expected to accommodate the Walvis Bay upgrade which will bring a very reliable and secure supply to the town. One should comprehend the technical complexity and the difficulty during this migration to the new infrastructure. Erongo RED is carefully planning future requirements to limit the number of outages to an absolute minimum to reduce the overall impact to all customers.

This will be the last planned outage for the entire Walvis Bay for 2014. No further planned outages will be scheduled and the next outage could only be expected towards the end of January 2015.

During this outage on Sunday 9 November, 18 Mega Watt will be available which will be reserved for the Industrial area. Should surplus capacity be available, priority will be given to the CBD areas. Further surplus capacity will then be given to the residential areas that were most affected by the previous outage on 24 September, being Kuisebmund, Narraville and Longbeach.

It should be noted that the electricity network cannot always be operated to control suburbs individually. Hence, the operation of the larger network will at all times be considered and small parts of residential area might be on during this outage.

During the entire outage time from 10:00 to 18:00, intermittent trips or interruptions to those areas being supplied, could be expected. However, should a power interruption occur, the power will be restored during a short period. It is therefore required to rather disconnect sensitive equipment during this period.

The Erongo RED Call Centre will be operated during this time to provide updates from time to time.

Erongo RED regrets any inconvenience which may result from this outage and would like to ensure that the interests of all customers are considered at all times.

Her first book, “The Most Important Book,”was published in 2012 and won a gold award at the Namibia Chil-dren’s Book Forum.Arangies writes booksfor children and youngteenagers.

She uses creative and descriptive writing to educate young deve-loping minds. Having a keen imag-inative intellect, No-reen was inspired to write children’s books after the birth of her son. Viewing children as humanity’s future and main responsibility, she focuses on moral values, choices and accountability, while

keeping her stories captivating and enter-taining. The book is available at book stores country-wide, and also direct-

ly from Wordweaver, Diehl Street, Southern Industrial, Windhoek. The Keepers of Equi-libria is Wordweaver’s 25th book.

The Windhoek Hebrew Congregation has recently published and released a book titled Jewish Life in South West Africa Namibia – A History.

Jewish Life in South West Africa, Namibia – a History

This account of the Jewish contribution to the history of Namibia has been long in the making, and is now fi-nally available. Illus-trated lavishly, it is the ultimate account of the Jewish community from German colonial times to Namibian In-dependence. Along this chronolo-gical account the book contains sections on

the specific contri-bution of Jews to the economic, cultural and educational de-velopments in SWA/Namibia. Important Jewish families are covered in yet another section. The book is finally rounded off with a chapter one could call ‘loose ends’: Jewish graves, diverse arti-cles on topics of Jew-

ish interest published over the decades, et al. A glossary and different indexes help to access the book’s wealth of fact and knowledge. The book is available in Namibia at Orum-bondeBooks in Tal Street (Namibia Craft Centre) or to be or-dered through [email protected]

Property in

Perspective

JJ van ZylPrincipal Anjo Estates

THE BIRTH OF “RENTVESTORS”. When times get tough, it is fascinating to see how innovative thinking “kicks in” to find alternative solutions. Likewise, it is common knowledge that the younger generations of today find it difficult to purchase property at prices they can ill afford from their lower based monthly income levels. In many cases, the assistance from parents, friends or family members renders rescue to enable the young adolescents an opportunity to own their first property. However, not everybody is that fortunate which cause a growing generation of property renters not seeing light to become property owners and perhaps believe “buying property only starts at 40”. But it seems a new group of rental home owners is here; the first-home buying investor. This phenomena is shaped through creative thinking to gain an entry into the

property market. Therefore, the stereotypical image of landlords being grey-haired owners of massive property portfolios is busy changing through the “birth” of – and being dubbed “Rentvestors” – i.e. buying property with the aim to rent it out and thereby secure payment of a larger portion if not all of the monthly bond repayments. Obviously the annual escalations of rent could soon, not only break even with the bond instalments but even exceed it and on the flip-side, the property generally also appreciates in value over time (a two sided win scenario). Surprising and unlike popular believe this new group is made up of single persons or couples who either keep renting where they are (normally at a lower figure than a bond instalment) or reside with their parents for an extended period to achieve their objectives in becoming first-time property owners. To this end, if you're part of this “emerging” group looking to buy your very first home there's a lot on your mind. Here's a brief synopsis to remind you of some of the factors you should be considering. Some of the more important issues include location, price, amenities, changing needs, reading the market, and the question of buying new, renovated or un-renovated. If you're falling in love with a property, it's time to stop and think about these bigger picture questions. Location: The most important thing to consider so far as location is concerned is proximity to the things that matter most in your life – your job, friends, family and places you visit regularly – remember you might want to stay there yourselves in future. Price: The basic premise is to buy the best house you can afford. If you can afford it today, it should be even easier in the future as your income increases (assuming interest rates remain fairly stable). The best way to calculate what you can afford is to approach your bank and find out what they can do for you. At the same time, get a second opinion by asking an Estate Agency to find you a good deal. It's a competitive market and there's lots of great options out there if you ask around and do your homework. Amenities: Consider that in future you might want to stay there or, if possibly consider to sell in time to come the following proximities are generally plus factors such as shops, schools, hospitals, etc. Changing needs: If you've found the perfect location and don't imagine moving for a long time, consider whether you can accommodate the changes in life. Is there a room to extend, put in another bedroom, living area, bathroom? If you're planning kids, is there enough room for them to play and grow? Is there car parking for more than one car? Is a unit sufficient or will you need to buy a house with some land? While it's impossible to know everything that life will serve up, it's important to think about how your first home will fit into your future hopes and plans, especially if you've found one that's a keeper. New, renovated or un-renovated? There's no right or wrong answer on this one. It boils down to your budget, tastes, ambitions and tolerance for things like repairs. If you're looking to buy a new home and don't have unlimited funds, this generally means you'll be buying a new house on the outskirts of the metropolitan area or a small apartment in the city. An un-renovated property provides opportunity to add value in the short term – but be honest about your DIY skills. It will be advantageous for Developers to take cognisance of this new group

of “Rentvestors” and to cater for the opportunities at hand! Should you require any further or property information please contact us on Tel: (064) 221000 or, E-mail: [email protected]

50 students passed a grading successfully on 4 November 2014 and received the following grades.

50 Karateka passed grading

The grading was held by Sensei Nico Maritz, (4th Dan) who is pleased with the performance and pro-gress of his students. It was a tough test and the students worked hard to

earn the next grade."Our Martial Arts class-es teach much more than kicking and punching. We teach life skills like respect, self-defence, self-esteem, concentration,

confidence, stranger awareness which results in improved school results."The Karate Club will close end of November for the Holidays and will open again next year when

school starts. Beginners classes will start 3 February 2015.For more info about Goju Ryu Karate in Walvis Bay phone: 081 277 9368

“Not only is this a record amount, registrations also happened within re-cord time,” says Aiden de Lange, one of the main organisers of the FNB De-sert Dash. The Desert Dash will take place from 12 - 13 Decem-ber 2014. As in the past different entry dates were used for the different race cate-gories and online entries were sold out within a short time after opening. De Lange: “On 16 July our solo entries sold out and registration closed within 7 hours, while 2 man en-tries on 30 July sold out within a mere 25 seconds

while the 4 man entries went even quicker – a staggering 6 seconds for them to be sold out and the online registration to be closed.”Ingrid Goeieman, Mana-ger of Donations and Sponsorships at FNB Na-mibia said the bank was overwhelmed with the en-thusiasm shown by local and international riders. “This is the 8th year that we are the title sponsor and the 10th anniversary that this magnificent tour takes place - through some of the most beautiful scenery Namibia has to offer.” Goeieman went on to say that this year a number of

changes have been made – based on feedback from participants, organisers and experience. “Every year we try to make it big-ger, better and more fun and this year we have thus increased our financial in-volvement in 2014.” De Lange confirmed that the prize platform has been increased and the cash prize money alone now stands at N$220 000.“There is also a change in route for the last 46km stage and a new coast-al venue for the Pupke-witz-Nissan Finish Zone. We look forward to lots of action and a fun-filled tour for all parties involved.”

Desert Dash

More than 550 riders to tackle FNB Desert Dash 2014

The play-offs and finals of each division were played in high spirits, providing exciting enter-tainment for the specta-tors who filled the grand-stands to capacity. The 8&U, 10&U, 12&U and 14&U teams from the Coastal Pirates club, under the national coach, Brian Sobel, took the

gold medals in all of these junior divisions! These teams have played exceptionally well all season with the first three teams remaining unbea-ten in league matches all year and showing a clear lead against their com-petitors in league stand-ings for 2014.The dynamic 16&U

Scorpions team took the gold medal in this di-vision. The 18&U final between the Cazadores and Scorpions clubs was definitely one of the tour-nament highlights. This game had the crowds on the edge of their seats. The match-ing skills of these two teams brought the game

into extended overtime, the deciding golden goal making the final score 5:4 to the Cazadores team from Windhoek, coached by Bryan Rob-bins. The Ladies finals took place between the Ka-mikaze and Scorpions teams. The majority of these players were part

of the Namibian Ju-nior Ladies team that competed in the FIRS World Championships in France in June. The Scorpions Ladies team, coached by Zach Sawyer, managed to snatch gold away from Kamikaze.The final Open game, where the top players in

inline hockey competed against one another, saw Coastal Pirates win gold against Badgers. This match was an ab-solute pleasure to watch as most of these play-ers were also part of the Namibian inline hockey team. The Ladies Masters di-vision showed great per-

formance and outstand-ing sportsmanship. Gold was won by the Badgers team, with their coach, Nadia Schmidt. Scorpions won gold in the Masters division - the final match of the tourna-ment. This wraps up the 2014 season for the NIIHA league.

Ronaldo Julie en Lukas Nghikembwa, alias German, is die stukrag agter die boksklub. Skoliere van graad 1 tot matriek kry boks-opleiding. Die klub word teen ‘n baie lae onderhoud-skoste bedryf. Die klubbestuurders sê Rodger Van Wyk, (The Fish Trader), James Julie (Julie Auto Elec-tric) en Freddie Liich (Impala Transport) se borgskappe en by-draes het dit moontlik

gemaak dat die klub sedert sy ontstaan kon groei. Die Walvibaai-muni-sipaliteit se goedgun-stige beskikbaarstel-ling van die perseel, beteken ook vir hulle geweldig baie.Die klub het die afge-lope week sy eerste kampioenskappe ge-had waar boksers teen ander genooide klubs kon meeding. Klubs van Uis en Walvisbaai het meegeding in dié kampioenskap.

Nóg klubs wat genooi was, kon egter nie die keer deelneem nie, weens problem soos ‘n gebrek aan akkommo-dasie. Die kampioenskappe word egter steeds as ‘n groot sukses bestempel – en die plaaslike klub het die beste prestasie gelewer. Frans Valom-bola is as die beste bokser aangewys. Ander boksers wat hulle slag en vaar-dighede gewys het, was onder andere, Max

Ipinge, Harry Simon (jr.), Ruben Shilongo en Hangula Kamhou. Die hoofborg vir die dag se trofeë en medal-jes was Impala Trans-port. Die klub sê hy sal nog borgskappe baie waar-deer, veral die sken-king van toerusting sal hoog op prys ges-tel word, sodat hy sy droom, om die jonges in die gemeenskap op te hef en positief te rig, kan verwesenlik.

The Zone Six gymnastics championships will take place in Walvis Bay from 7-13 December and five countries, namely Nami-bia, Mozambique, Zim-babwe, Angola, and South Africa will participate. Artistic men, artistic wo-men, rhythmic gymnas-

tics, aerobic gymnastics, and trampoline are the five gymnastic disciplines, in which gymnasts will be competing.Making the team for the boys were Josef Nawe-mab, Emile Pitt and Riaan Jantjies. For the girls Abi-gail Carew, Elisbe Swane-

poel, Darnell Jarmann, and Ray-Corne Coetzee were selected. Josef, Emil and Elisbe also won trophies for their in-dividual sections, joined by Karl-Heinrick Zabel, Layla Husselmann and Tatum Liebenberg at the National Championships.

Walvisbaai Boksklub wil opheffende rol speel

Liesl Losper

Die Walvisbaai Boksklub fokus die afgelope twee jaar daarop om jong kinders van Kuisebmond van Maandag tot Saterdag konstruktief besig te hou. Die aanleer van dis-sipline is ‘n belangrike aspek waaraan baie aandag bestee word.
