Vandals steal ‘lifelines’CHEVON BOOYSEN

@ChevonBooysen

Grassy Park residents have recently fall-en victim to thieves of telephone ca-bles.

Residents noticed a trend in the pastmonth and say it is now getting out of hand.They are left at the mercy of criminals whohave taken their “lifelines”.Proportional representative councillor

William Akim says the issue has gotten sobad that residents are now knocking on hisdoor in the middle of the night to report thecrimes.“This issue has now spiked inward 66 and

it cannot go on like this. I have had people

knocking on my door because they do notknow where to turn,” he says.He adds residents who have been affected

by the cable theft do not have cellphones andnowhave noway of reaching out in an emer-gency.According to Akim, residents from all

over the area are experiencing these issues,including in Ottery, Parkwood and LotusRiver.One resident of Helena Road, Brian Lot-

ters, says his telephone cables have been sto-len twice in as many months.The latest incident occurred on Saturday

4 July when a telephone pole was vandal-ised. “They ripped out the entire metal poleand took the wires.

This was a huge inconvenience, as it hadour telephone lines cut for more than aweek,” Lotters says. Nine households wereaffected. Telkom had the pole fixed ten dayslater.“There was an incident roughly a month

ago where we also had our cables stolen. Atthat time I was without service for an ex-tended period as well,” he says.Lotters says the situation was a huge

“bother” for them. “Ihave since gone toTelk-om and disconnected my landline and in-steadwentwireless.However, this is costingme hundreds of rands more,” he says.Akim says residents in Parkwood are at

risk after their lines were stolen too.“These people either do not have cell-

phones or if they do have they sometimes donothave airtimeon it tomake calls, especial-ly during emergencies. It’s a huge inconven-ience to them and I don’t want to think whatcould happen if these people are caught inan emergency situation and they have nomeans of communication,” he adds.Another resident from Parkwood, who re-

quested to remain anonymous, says she isstranded without a landline.“Our lines were stolen during November

last year and Telkom has not come out to re-place it. It’s a huge inconvenience for me be-cause I always used my landline more. NowI have to use my daughter’s cellphone,” shesays.V Continued on page 2

Medics targeted for ‘worthless’ tabletsNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

A new technology rolled out in ambulan-ces across the city is making emergency

medics a target for crime.This as three sources in the industry, who

do not want to be identified as they are notcontractually permitted to speak to the me-dia, claim that robberies and attacks havespiked over the last few months, especiallyin areas such as Mitchell’s Plain, Manen-berg, Hanover Park and Khayelitsha.They believe the spike coincides with the

installation of tablet devices in ambulances,which linkmedics to the call centre and pro-

vide directions to the emergency.Some medics who have been held up have

even been asked to hand over the “tablets”,sources say.

Useless outside ambulancesThe tablets, according to a source with in-

dustry knowledge, have been installed in away that makes them “impossible to re-move” from the ambulances.The tablets are also locked and will only

work on the health department’s system,and are useless for any other user.The installation of the devices, referred to

asMDTs, cost about R300m, the source says.Medics have reportedly raised their con-

cerns with management, but have receivedno reaction. They are now calling for imme-diate action to be taken, to inform the com-munity that the devices are not removableand are not useable outside the ambulance.Sources say the device, which is mounted

above the dashboard, is clearly visible atnight. The system also updates continuous-ly, and can be heard beeping from outsidethe ambulance.They say in some areas, medics even

choose to use ambulances in which the devi-ces have not yet been installed or switch itoff.They say no education has taken place in

communties to inform the general public of

the function of the MDT devices.

Added pressureThe increase in attacks has left medics

fearful, a source confirms, with many al-ready expected to attend to patients in areasthey feel are unsafe or where gang violenceis prevalent. “We already have the pressureof having to respond to as many calls as pos-sible. It’s nowbecoming just a job andwe arelosing our passion,” he says.The department of health refused to con-

firm the existance of the MDT devices, say-ing to do so could make ambulances moreof a target. They declined to comment fur-ther.

She adds she was given an alternativehandsetwhichwas cordless andcouldoper-ate without a telephone line.“But I took that phone back again. The

phone never worked because whenever wetried to make a call on it it just showedemergency,’ she says.Telkomresponded to the increasing cable

theft incidents saying business and resi-dential customers are severely affected dueto an alarming amount of copper cable theftthat results in service interruptions.“The severity of the impact is due to the

fact that Information CommunicationTechnology (ICT) services are a vital com-ponent to the running of businesses and anintegral part of everyday living.The increase in copper cable theft is cre-

ating an environment of a rapidly deterio-rating servicequality and is severelyaffect-ing the delivery of sustainable ICT servicesto customers. In many high-theft areas, ca-ble is repeatedly stolen, sometimes withindays after replacements or repairs,” theyexplain.Telkom says they have observed a trend

in the deliberately determined cycle oftheft. “This is damaging businesses, de-priving our customers of a basic serviceand, in some cases, adversely affectingtheir security. Of course this is affectingour capacity to deliver services within ac-ceptable time intervals.”In their efforts to counter the scourge of

copper cable theft, Telkomhas adopted var-ious interventions, which include proact-ively alarming critical and sensitive cableroutes and employing services of armed se-curity firms, deploying various wirelesstechnologies that are alternatives to cop-per, assessing vulnerable aerial cableroutes and,where feasible, these are buriedunderground and also working closelywith the Non-Ferrous Theft CombatingCommittee (NFTCC) under the auspices ofBusiness Against Crime and the South Af-rican Police Services, to jointly find waysof protecting the cable network.V To report cable theft to Telkom contact their toll-free number on 0800 124 000.V Have you been targeted by telephone cablethieves?

‘1000-man march’to protest violenceCHEVON BOOYSEN

@ChevonBooysen

An emergency meeting has been held byreligious leaders in Parkwood after a

spate of killings in the area.According to Voice of Parkwood chairper-

son Paul Phillips themeeting was necessaryas “things cannot go on like this”.“We need a plan of action and we need it

urgently. we are losing our youth in sense-less killings,” Phillips says.Two weeks ago two men were shot and

killed a day apart. Residents are adamantthat the victims were not gangsters, despitepolice confirming the shootings were bothgang-related (“Two youth killed in shoot-

ings”, People’s Post, 14 July).Phillips says after the successful meeting

on Tuesday last week they are planning amass march by community members to callattention to their hope to stop gang violencein the area.“We plan to mobilise our community and

hope to host a ‘thousand manmarch’. It willbe held on Sunday 9 August and we reallyhope to get more than 1000 people involved,”he says.According to Phillips religious leaders in

the area are rallying behind the cause.“We have decided that we are going be-

yond provincial level and now want the na-tional government to hear our plight.We aresick and tired of the killings in our area,”Phillips stresses.In an added effort to curb shootings in the

area, Phillips says religious leaderswill alsoapproach gang leaders in the area to createa communication platform.“We always hear the bosses saying they

never get a chance to be heard out but nowwe are creating that platform for them. Wewill give them an ear and listen to their is-sues as well. However, we will not be negoti-ating with them,” he says.Phillips says after speaking to various

gang leaders in the weeks leading up to themarch they plan to promise that if criminalscontinue to threaten the lives of the innocentand the wider community, they will givegang leaders no option but to leave the com-munity.“We want them to understand that we

want our neighbourhoods safe. We are tak-ing our communities back,” he concludes.V What are your thoughts? Starting with the word“Post”, SMS your views to 32516. SMSes cost R1Paul Phillips PHOTO: CHEVON BOOYSEN

Three deny gunnext to themThreemenwere arrested onMonday lastweek when they did not want to own upto whose unlicensed firearm the policefound.The men were arrested in a wendy

house in Ottery, says Lansdowne policespokesperson Sergeant Nkululeko Mny-aka. “Threemen, aged 31, 38 and 54, werearrested for the possession of an unli-censed firearm. After receiving a tip-offWarrant Officer Gregory Grey and theCape Town K9 unit went to conduct asearch in the wendy house in a backyardin Becott Road,” he says.He adds one suspect was arrested in

the house. “One suspect, the owner, wasinside in the house when the officer ar-rived and the other two were standingoutside. After being granted permission[to search thehome], a .38 special firearmwas found next to the bed on the ground.No-one wanted to account for the fire-arm, not even the owner of the wendyhouse,” Mnyaka says.Mnyaka adds the local criminal record

centre was on the scene to check and col-lect the firearm. “It was found that thefirearmwas stolen during a house break-in in Gauteng,” Mnyaka explains.The suspects were arrested on charges

of possession of an unlicensed firearmand appeared in court onWednesday lastweek.In a separate incident another three

suspects were arrested for the posses-sion of stolen property after they werefound with a stolen car on the corner ofBlanken and Waterloo roads. “On Sun-day 12 July at 06:47 Kenwyn residents

spotted a red Toyota Conquest with threeoccupants, twomen and a woman. The ve-hicle had no licence disc. The Lansdownepolice went to the scene and checked thevehicle and it was discovered that the ve-hicle had been stolen in the Muizenbergarea,” Mnyaka says.Mnyaka adds that one resident ex-

plained the suspects were attempting tosteal another car at a mosque. The twomen, aged 21 and 25, and the woman, aged23, were arrested and will face charges ofpossession of stolen property and attempt-ed theft of a car. He adds they appearedin court on the Tuesday after being arrest-ed. The stolen vehicle was taken to Bell-ville South for fingerprints.Station commander Colonel Jan Alex-

ander applauds the members of the com-munity for being spot-on to ensure thattheir community is safe. He also encour-ages them to participate in policing activi-ties, aiding to fight crime and criminal ac-tivities in their respective areas,” Mny-aka says.In another incident, Mnyaka says, a 32-

year-old man was found shot and killed inMuller Road at Aylesbury Place, Lans-downe on Sunday 12 July at 20:10.“According to the eyewitness the de-

ceased was chased by two unknown sus-pects shooting at him and running up thestairs of flats. After he fell down the sus-pects ran away towards Becott Road andclimbed into a white vehicle and fled thescene in the direction of Ottery,” he says.V Anyone with information is urged to contact theLansdowne police on 021 700 9000 or082 576 2804.

Beware, we shareroads with natureMotorists need to bemore vigilant and re-

duce their speed when driving near na-ture reserves, especially at night, to avoidknocking down animals when they crossthe roads, often unexpectedly, the councilhas warned.Recently a caracal andCapegrysbokwere

killed, and over the last year various ani-mals, including tortoises, Cape cobras,mole snakes, small-spotted genets and por-cupines, have been killed.In most cases, animals are hesitant to

cross roads because it is a foreign environ-ment to them so they will often do so sud-denly and unexpectedly, explains Johanvan der Merwe, mayoral committee mem-ber for energy, environmental and spatialplanning.“The challenge is two-fold: Many of the

motorists are not aware that they are driv-ing through these proclaimed nature re-serve areas, while at the same time many

of the animals are nocturnal, so it makes itdifficult for motorists to see the animals atnight when they unexpectedly cross theroads searching for food,” he says.Motorists are urged to slow down and ad-

here to speed restrictions, particularly atnight, when the nocturnal animals aremostat risk, Van der Merwe says.“It is sad that over the past few months

there has been an increase in the numberof animals being killed, particularly alongOtto du Plessis Drive and the R27 as well asOu Kaapse Weg,” he says.“Capetonians are fortunate to share this

city with a range of unique plants and ani-mals, many of which are found nowhereelse in the world.“We have a responsibility to ensure that

we conserve and protect our biodiversity.The loss of a single animal canhave a signif-icant impact on the environment,” saysVander Merwe.

Motorists have beenurged to slow downafter a number ofanimals, like a Capegrysbok, were killednear nature reserves.

About 100 electronic devices were confis-cated from prisoners in Pollsmoor prisonlast weekend; half of these being cell-phones.Dan Plato, provincial minister of com-

munity safety, says inmates’ access tocommunicating at will with the outsideworld undermines the hard work done bythe police and the judicial system.“The police spend valuable time and re-

sources to gather the necessary evidenceto ensure that criminals are put behindbars, and situations where these gang-sters and drug lords are allowed contin-ued access to the outside world severelyundermines the police’s efforts to keepour communities safe,” he says.Plato says stronger and continued ac-

tion is required against any inmate found

with any communication device aswell asagainst any prison employee found to beaiding it.Thedepartment of correctional services

is apparently implementing cellphone de-tection technology at Pollsmoor. Platosays he has requested both the nationalminister of correctional services and theacting provincial police commissioner toupdate him on the use of communicationdevices in prisons, the impact it has oncrime prevention outside prisons, as wellas how involved crime intelligence are incombating it.“If we are to have any measurable im-

pact in combatting crime and organisedcrime related to gangs and drugs in theprovincewewill all have to play ourpart,”he says.

the vagrants who sleep at the Grassy Parktaxi rank. The Grassy Park man, who re-quested to remain anonymous, says thestreet people have been causing continuousissues and he is “fed up”.“They are a big group and sometimes you

see small children there as well. It is a realeyesorewhenyou travel downFifthAvenueand this is what greets you,” he says.Another resident, Grant February, says

he has sympathy for the group of people asit is winter and they have noway of keepingwarm “but it is getting out of hand now”.“The first thing you see when you get to

the hub of Grassy Park, which is on FifthAvenue, are the vagrants. They harass mo-torists sometimeswhen parking near the li-brary,” February says.The two residents say they often hear pro-

fanities being slurred when some of the va-grants drink. “It’s not nice hearing that

when you’re out with your family andmay-be popping over to the shops or with yourchild to the library,” February adds.Another resident, Nicole Jacobus, says

she had an unsavoury experience whenpassing the taxi rank one Sunday evening.“Wewere driving past the taxi rankwhen

we just saw items being strewn back andforth. It was two vagrants throwing thingsat each other. What happens if they dam-aged someone’s car as they drove past?” Ja-cobus asks.The homeless people, who now dwell at

the taxi rank a few metres away from theGrassy Park civic centre, are the samegroup who vacated the premises just out-side the Grassy Park police station.“We need something to be done about this

because you would not see this happeningin areas such as Constantia. So why shouldwe have to put up with it? We also want ourarea to look nice,” Jacobus says.Grassy Park police were not available for

Ward 57 councillor Brett Herron unveiled a new,artistically designed bicycle rack at the corner

of Durham Avenue and Cecil Road in Salt River onThursday last week.The artsy bicycle rack came about as part of Cape

Town’s world design capital year of projects andHerron organised the installation in Salt River aspart of his ward allocation. He says this follows nu-merous requests from cyclists in his ward to havea safe place to park their bicycles.

Not the usual typeThe project promotes public art as well as bicycle

culture. The cycle rack – the first of its kind in thearea – is not the usual U-shaped rack. Two other pla-ces have these public art racks installed, one atSearle Street and the other at Keizersgracht.The rack spells the word “bike” and can handle

eight to 10 bicycles at one time.Herron says this is a way to encourage people to

cycle instead of drive.“We want people to use bicycles as this will help

decrease the congestion on our roads. This was alsothe only sustainable way to reduce congestion onour roads.

Positive start“Through this initiative we are encouraging peo-

ple to cycle knowing that they have a safe place toleave their bicycles. I’m hoping that people will usethem a lot. I have noticed a lot of interest from cy-clists about the racks so it’s a positive start for

them,” he says.Nils Hansen, a cyclist, says the racks are a good

step in the right direction: “We have to start some-where. It has been well received and we are happythat there is a place to park our bicycles properly.It will improve as the years go by, but what makesus happy is that something is being done about cy-cling. We will get things right as we go.”DavidMalan, another cyclist, says they arehappy

about the initiative but the City always misses thespot.

“What they always get wrong is that cyclists lovetheir coffee. So they should try and put the rackscloser to a coffee shop, becausewhen I’mhavingmycoffee I want to see my bike. That is why most cy-clists end up locking their bicycles on the poles sothat they will be in full view. We know that it’s awork in progress and we appreciate that and hopeit will improve with time. It makes us happy,though, that we have a proper safe place to park ourbikes,” says Malan.Another installation of bicycle racks is planned.

When Fred Mentjies (66) from Riverside in Tokaiwas diagonised with prostate cancer three yearsago he thought all was lost. He gave himself oneyear to live.The father of two sayswhen something like that

happens it takes everything away.“It’s such a huge knock. You try to deny it, ask

why it’s happening to you. You just literally startcounting thedaysyou’re leftwith to live,”he says.He vividly remembers he came from the doctor

shaken about the news. Being a friend of Arch-bishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu and drawing in-spiration from him, he gave his friend a call andbroke the news to him. Tutu himself has had pros-tate cancer.What Tutu told him got him thinking.“Inhis calmvoicehe toldme to sit and feel sorry

formyself or to get up and go. He toldme it wasn’ta death sentence and the doctors were good. Afterthosewords I had a tremendous decision tomake.To sit and feel sorry for myself or to actually dosomething,” he says.

That’s when the idea of touring to help otherpeople with cancer came to mind. He decided totour so that he could raise money to help whereit’s needed.Last year he and his wife Janey (62), who is also

a cancer survivor, toured the Kruger NationalPark through an initiative that they have called“Fredo touring for Cansa”. They stayed there for40 days and raised R32 000 to help people livingwith cancer and others who support people withcancer. After that successful tour they thought tothemselves that it wouldn’t end there – it was justthe beginning of something big.Today, they are living for yet another 37 days

in Namibia, hoping to be back by the end of Au-gust. Their aim is to raise at least R100 000.“We are so excited about the whole tour. Most

of all we want to do it for other people. If it wasn’tfor the people who supported me I wouldn’t behere. When you have cancer, you need a warmbed, clothes, support, food as you take your medi-cation, so we are hoping that we will raise thismoney and help those that are in need. There areothers who are less fortunate, so if they are diag-

nosed with cancer they lose hope. What we wantto do now is to bring a new ray of hope to thosepeople and give them courage. To let them knowthat there are peoplewho care out there and thereis the support that they need,” he says.Fred’swife says they are excited about the tour.“We are extremely busy as the days are count-

ing down as we are trying to put everything to-gether. Since we are both cancer survivors, wethoughtwe shoulddo something tohelp otherpeo-ple aswell.We are putting things together and themind is set for the road. We are doing this so thatwe help people who might find themselves affect-ed by cancer directly or indirectly,” she says.Angela Rodi, a community mobiliser for Cansa

in Mowbray, says all Cansa’s various depart-ments need funding, so they are glad that peopleare willing to help.“There are a lot of things thatwedoandweneed

money to keep going. We are happy that some-thing like this is being done and we are seeing alot of people that are knocking at our doors askinghow they can help. We are really grateful. We arein need of every bit of help,” says Rodi.

Touring to help cancer sufferers

The City of Cape Town will give a total ofR2 million to community organisationsthat help residents.Community organisations working in

the City’s areas of focus can apply for a por-tion of the funding now. The policy allowsfor funding to bemade available to externalorganisations to help deliver services inthe City’s area of responsibility, to enablecommunity development.The City has an established grant-in-aid

policy, but this is the first time that the so-cial development and early childhood de-velopment directorate is disbursing thefunds.“Our directorate is only a few years old

and so until now our focus has been on get-ting our internal policies, process and pro-grammes up and running,” said SuzetteLittle, mayoral committee member for so-cial development and early childhood de-velopment.“We are now in a better position to build

partnerships with community organisa-

tions working in the social developmentsector for the benefit of our residents.”Community organisations working in

the areas of early childhood development,street people, substance abuse, youth de-velopment, vulnerable groups and povertyalleviation can apply for funding.The minimum amount per project is

R100 000 and the applications need to in-cludeadescriptionof theproject andabusi-ness plan.“Weare boundby legislation to do proper

checks and balances and to ensure that thefunds are spent wisely.“I am excited about the prospect of em-

powering organisations to help us changethe social fabric in our communities wherethe need is greatest,” adds Little.Application forms for grants are availa-

ble at the various social development andearly childhood development district offi-ces.V For more information call Patty des Fountain on021 417 0141 or Fatima Davids on 021 417 4086.

The provincial government wants to hon-our the legacy of former president NelsonMandela by developing a tourism routewhich traces his journey in the province.Alan Winde, provincial minister of eco-

nomic opportunities, says it is part of a se-ries of heritage tourism proposals.The proposal comes from SA Tourism’s

mobile app, which is based on a map of Ma-diba-inspired tourism attractions.“The map was launched last year to en-

courage local and international tourists towalk in the footsteps of Madiba. We hopethese initiatives will offer an authentic ex-perience to visitors, allowing them to expe-rience a piece of the Western Cape’s richcultural heritage,” he says.The proposal is to develop signage for the

Madiba route, which will highlight signifi-cant sites in the province, Winde explains.“It is our goal to develop clear signage for

theMadiba route so tourists are able to eas-ily navigate to the different sites. We willwork with local and national tourism au-thorities to market the route. At this stagethis is a proposal, and we will engage therelevant stakeholders. Collaboration withkey roleplayers is key to ensure theproject’s success,” he says.The proposed Mandela journey will be

made up of Robben Island, Pollsmoor pris-on, Drakenstein correctional services, CityHall and Parliament.The proposal will be submitted for ap-

proval next month.“We can increase the economic contribu-

tion of the tourism sector by up to R28bnfrom R17bn.”

One of the oldest museums in the Southernhemisphere is receiving a multimillionrand upgrade.The Iziko South African Museum, which

was opened in 1879, has received fundingfrom the provincial department of arts andculture to create a bigger museum.The renovation and upgrade of the muse-

um will facilitate greater access to the col-lections and enable Iziko to work towardsbecoming a world-class museum, explainsmuseum CEO Rooksana Omar. “The court-yard project consists of the construction ofsix storeys within the courtyard of the ex-isting research building, adjacent to theUCT campus. When completed, this build-ing will house the research collections, offi-ces and laboratories, as well as give uniquebehind-the-scenes access to the public toview collections in storage, scientists andtechnical staff working on fossils and otherspecimens,” she says.The project aims to increase the storage

space for the growing natural history andsocial history collections, improve visitoraccess to the research and collections withthe aim of increasing public awareness andprovide additional office and exhibitionspaces for Iziko museums. The renovationsare expected to be complete late next year.A report by the Central City Improve-

ment District estimates the project to beworth R180m. The upgrade will allow Izikoto “lift the veil” on the daily activities be-hind the public exhibitions and share thefull extent of its collections with visitors,Omar says.“Visitors can learn to better understand

the constantly evolving universe we live inandmarvel at the biological and cultural di-versity of our planet. This will enable Izikoto engage in a more meaningful way withthe public,” she says.Themuseumwill remain open during the

renovations, although some exhibitionsand areas may be closed.“The work on site is scheduled in such a

manner to minimise the impact on the visi-tor experience.” she says.

Models know a DIY or twoA small company based in Crawford has

taken the initiative to give young girlsfrom the Western Cape an opportunity tolearn new skills as well as become morerounded individuals.

Topdeck Waterproofing and Restorationhas partnered with Snapshot Model Discov-ery and Northlink College to create (or rec-reate) a model search reality show based onTyra Banks’s America’s next top model, inwhich aspirant young models live togetherand compete to become a professional mod-el. “The opportunity was a collaboration be-tween Topdeck, Quicktints and NorthlinkCollege, which hosted the team buildingand training exercise at their Belhar cam-pus,” says Topdeck’s Verline Leo.

The entire competition took place and

was filmed during the school holiday to notimpact on the girls’ curricular activities.

Thirty girls initially entered the competi-tion house, eventually being whittled downto four finalists. The competition is expect-ed to premiere on CTV over the weekend of2 to 4 October and will run for 10 weeks, cul-minating in the winner announcement.

Leo says it was a boon for Topdeck andits construction affiliates to be part of thisadventure.

“Being part of the construction industry,Topdeck thought it a great idea to teach theGrade 11 models representing schoolsacross the Western Cape skills which theycould use in later life,” Leo continues.

“This was achieved by the models whowere guided through the scope of works,

which included using sandpaper, primingand decoration to create a personalised pho-to frame depicting their transformationfrom pupil to empowered youth ambassa-dor.”

Northlink’s Belhar campus was trans-formed into a filming and photoshoot set forthe television show, depicting constructionindustry-related sectors, including paint-ing, bricklaying, plastering and waterproof-ing.

This introduced the contestants to theruggedness of a construction site, mixedwith the fun factor, hard work and rewards.V For skills training workshops and programmes visitwww.topdeck.co.za or call 021 697 5924. Visitwww.northlink.co.za for the vocational training pro-grammes offered by Northlink College.

One night of hitsLOUISA STEYL

@LouNotes

A few of Cape Town’s divas willbe on stage at the Joseph Stone

Auditorium for a special once-offperformance on Saturday 1 Au-gust.They’ll be performing in Kat Gi-

lardi’sDivas one night only, a caba-ret show of drag queens lip-synch-ing.Theannual charity concert is the

brainchild of Kat, who grew up inMitchell’s Plain and now lives inRondebosch East.“IwonMissGayWesternCape in

2010 andas the titleholderyouhaveto come up with a fundraising orawareness concept,” she explains.Considering there were alreadymany pageants on offer, Kat decid-ed to instead do something shereally enjoyed.

Creativity“Cabaret or lip-synching de-

serves the respect of an art form asit was not viewed like that.”Kat explains that there’s a lot of

effort, energy and creativity thatgoes into preparing a song to per-form.She decided to create a concert to

showcase Cape Town’s talent onone stage to raise funds and edu-cate local communities.“We are not just boys or men in

dresses but men with talent andcreativity with amazing personali-ties and good souls.”Funds raised at the concert will

go to the Miss Gay Western Capecompetition. They run soup kitch-

ens and finalists of the competitionvisit old-age and children’s homes.“My team and I at Miss Gay

Western Cape have no financialbacking,” Kat points out, addingthat they welcome any contribu-tions to help themwith their chari-ty work.Kat says the audience at this

year’s Divas one night only showcan expect a bigger and better pro-duction than ever before. “The au-dience will definitely be in for anamazing show this year.”

Big namesMost of the performers involved

are seasoned cabaret artists, butthere will also be some new talentwho made it through an auditionprocess.Some of the names on stage in-

cludeManila vonTees, VidaFanta-bisher, Anastacia Khan, Angel La-lamore, Dayana Lima and 3D(ThreeDivas), who’ll be perform-ing hits by divas like Patti Labelle,Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey,Tina Turner, Ariana Grande andMadonna. Heart 104fm’s Irma Gwill be the MC for the evening.Kat says the show has become a

true community event with some-thing for everybody on stage. Shealso invites the audience to join thestars at the concert’s after-party atWest End in Rylands.V Tickets for Divas one night only on Satur-day 1 August at 19:30 for 20:00 cost R100each and are available from Computicket.V Anyone who would like to sponsor some-thing for the show or the goodie bags forthe artists can email Kat at katgilardi@gmail.com.

City staff plantgarden at ZerildaExtreme weather did not deter City officials

from investing Mandela Day time in Vil-lage Heights on Friday last week.

Various activities formed part of how Cityofficials celebrated Mandela Day while see-ing to some of the needs of Zerilda PrimarySchool in Village Heights

These activities included planting a varie-ty of indigenous plants and seeds, helpingwith environmental education activities forchildren facilitated by Zandvlei Nature Re-serve staff, painting a play park and clearinga school sports field of rocks and building de-bris.

According to a statement City officialshave been working in the Seawinds area, spe-cifically in Village Heights, for around threeyears through the “Friends and neighbours:The other side of the fence” initiative. Thisinitiative is run by the False Bay Nature Re-serve and aims to integrate surroundingcommunities with the important natural as-sets in the reserve through environmentaleducation and green jobs.

Johan van der Merwe, mayoral committeemember for energy, environmental and spa-tial planning, says the event on Friday wasnot only held to honour the legacy of formerpresident Nelson Mandela.

“Importantly, we are not only celebrating

the legacy of this great man, we are also cele-brating the culture of volunteerism. I thankour officials and the other volunteers for notbeing deterred by the extremely wet weatherand showing how we all have to work togeth-er to make progress possible,” Van der Mer-we says.

He adds the turnout at the event was en-couraging as staff and residents came out tosupport the days activities.

“Zerilda Primary School in Seawinds, nearLavender Hill, is attended by a number ofchildren from the Village Heights communi-ty.

“The Mandela Day activities, aimed at im-proving the facilities at the school, were initi-ated by Village Heights parents. This sort ofresponse from the community is very en-couraging as it highlights how, through pro-grammes such as the ‘Friends and neigh-bours’ initiative, a sense of pride and owner-ship is being cultivated,” he says.

The school plans to use the indigenous gar-den a primary tool for the environmental ed-ucation programme.

It also provides a biodiversity link to acommunity nature garden currently underconstruction at Village Heights as part ofFalse Bay Nature Reserve’s “friends andneighbours” programme.

City staff andofficials in theindigenousgardenplanted atZerildaPrimarySchool onFriday lastweek as partof theirMandela Daycelebrations.

Chauncey’s epic anti-bullying club was offi-cially launched at the Peninsula Hotel inSea Point last week.

The club, which has been in existence foronly a few months, tackles the worldwidechallenges and effects of bul-lying at schools. Founded bya mother, Beverley Davids,who saw her son suffer be-cause of bullies, she vowed todo something about bullying.

Since the formation of theclub Davids has visited dif-ferent schools in Cape Townand educated teachers, par-ents and pupils on bullying(People’s Post, “Pupils edu-cated on bullying”, 16 June).

Davids believes not a lot isbeing done to address bully-ing.

“Watching my son sufferbecause of bullying and no-one to help really tore myheart apart. We knocked onliterally every door but no-one could helphim. I watched in pain as he suffered andall the doors were shut in front of us. That’swhen I realised I had to do something to helpothers as well,” she says.

Left brokenAttending the launch last week was Dur-

ban author Sandhir Kumar Sewmungal(21), who has suffered at the hands of bullieswhile in school.

With no-one to turn to, pen and paper be-come his best friends and he chronicled ev-

erything that happened to him. However,what Sewmungal remembers is that bully-ing leaves you broken.

“You become so angry and lonely that youcan’t help yourself. It tears you apart. Formost people it has long-term effects, likenightmares, and they become so aggressive.It’s such a pain that with such devastating

effects of bullying not so muchis being done to help the vic-tims. However, I would en-courage parents to talk totheir children and help themto open up and tell you if theyare being bullied. Though theresponse might be slow, keeptalking about it – somethingwill eventually happen,” hesaid.

Bullying destroysUsing a piece of paper, Da-

vids demonstrated the effectsof bullying.

“When you squash a pieceof paper and unfold it again,it can unfold, but it will nevergo to its original state. It has

creases that will never be fixed. So let’s edu-cate each other, but mostly our kids, to sayno to bullying, because it destroys the per-son inside. Most people grow to be lonely be-ings or sad and mostly broken inside be-cause of bullying, so let’s fight together tomake sure that we win this war against bul-lying,” says Davids.

Chauncey’s epic anti-bullying club is runby Davids and her family. Anyone whowants to donate to help them carry out themessage of saying no to bullying can can Da-vids on 073 557 8849 or 021 372 0252.

We hear of people taking the law into their own handsto deal with criminals, more often these days.Andwhile not only the hardened criminals, but also the

petty thieves are “punished for their crimes” by ordinarymembers of the community fed up by a “lack of policeaction”, very often vigilante justice becomes more thanjust a “simple hiding”.Recently, a suspectedmurderer paidwith his livewhen

residents of Kalkfontein decided to take the law into theirown hands.The reason? The community “distrusts” the police.

Theyalso complain about the lackof policing in their areaas is the case with other crime ridden areas across theCape.In a separate incident earlier thisweek, nine foreigners

and a South African were robbed at the bottom of Lion’sHead in Cape Town.When the victims chased the criminals after the rob-

bery, one called the SouthAfrican emergency number 112– without success.He phoned his mother, who tried phoning the 112 emer-

gency number as well as 10111 for over 20 minutes. Whenshe finally got through to the Cape Town Central policestation, the police officer on the phone did not knowwhere Lion’s Head is. The victims gave up after waitingon help to arrive for 35.Although the above incidents are not related , there is

an agreement: the police were conspicuous in their ab-sence.Such clumsy action (or rather a lack of any action) is

a blot on the name of our sergeants.The longer this poor service continues, the more the

community will continue to take the law into their ownhands – in itself a frightening and unacceptable idea!

Look out for morel mush-roomI’m a Rondebosch-based mushroomforager and fungi researcher in need ofsome knowledge and/or advice fromFish Hoek residents who may havespotted an extremely rare mushroomgrowing in the valley.The morel mushroom is highly

sought-after for its excellent taste and isextremely rare to find in Cape Town.Research has led me to believe that

Fish Hoek was once a hotspot forforaging wild morels, but this is goingback over 50 years.

The morel is brown-yellow, shaped likea small conical brain and usually popsup in spring when the ground warmsup, at least in the northern hemisphereit does.They have been known to pop up after

fires and are believed to be mycorrhizal,meaning that they grow under certaintrees – in this case oak, ash, elm andapple orchards.I am curious as to whether they are

still around.Finding one, or a patch of them, would

be quite a discovery.Any information about these mush-

rooms and their last seen location wouldbe highly appreciated.I wish to find them and collect sam-

ples, as to preserve their spores forfuture propagation around the city.Eating them is undoubtedly a bonus!Please email me at justin@hsm.co.za if

you know anything of this rare fungusthat grew in Fish Hoek.

Cry of desperationBy the time this article is published,another two coffins would have beencarried by bereaved family members toour local cemetery.Another two young lives cut off in the

prime of their youth.More tears, more heartache and more

uncertainty of what to expect next.As a community we are desperate –

desperate to see the end of this senselessbloodshed, desperate to be freed from thisevil that seems to overwhelm everythingin its wake.These are not words of despair, but

words of desperation. In spite of all ourefforts we humanly endeavour to do tomake our community a better place, theauthorities still ignore or choose tooverlook what is happening.As community leaders, organizations,

structures and churches we are doing ourlevel best but the reality is that we arenot the authorities. We are not the police,social development, court or the govern-ment.As long as basic services are not

delivered within the reach of the commu-nity, desperate times will prevail.I hope out of our desperation this time

round we will keep those who areresponsible to render these services,accountable and that if they don’t weshall collectively deal with the matter.

PAUL PHILLIPS,Parkwood

Gender violencea serious issueThe horrendous and brutal attacksagainst the courageous 14-year-oldGrabouw girl, and the 18-year-old matricpupil, Sanet de Lange begs the question,“When will civil society start winningthe battle of violence against women?”The ongoing scourge of the abuse ofwomen and children continues unabat-ed!Have we forgotten the brutal murder

of 2-year old baby Zoey Petersen at thehands of her drug-crazed father?The most vulnerable in our society

continues to be violated almost on a

daily basis, despite campaigns such asthe 16 Days of Activism for No Violenceagainst Women and Children, whichruns globally from 25 November (Inter-national Day for the Elimination ofViolence against Women) through toInternational Human Rights Day on 10December. I urge civil society to collec-tively tackle the issue of gender violenceseriously, and for government to securethe highest political commitment to endthe pandemic expeditiously.

Muggings, robberies must be reportedIt’s been safe and quiet for the last fewmonths at sunrise beach where localMuizenberg residents enjoy walkingtheir dogs or just taking a family stroll.But in the last week three violent

attacks have occurred.Two Sundays ago a man was robbed

at knife point and last Tuesday twoseparate incidents of ladies being robbedat gun point, at 10:00 by a couple of

youths.This is terrible. The sad thing is most

of these are never reported to the police,as people feel “What’s the point?” Thenthey complain that the police do noth-ing. These attacks need to be reported inorder for the law to do something aboutit!

EARL HAUPT@EarlHaupt

The Western Province CricketClub Badgers (WPCC) hockeyteam has repeated last year’s

heroics and successfully defendedtheir Greenfields Elite Club Chal-lenge title in Durban at the week-end.

The tournament boasts the larg-est total prize money for a SouthAfrican hockey tournament.

WPCC pocketed R25 000 for its ef-forts in securing the tournament’stop honours, which is the highestprize money ever awarded inSouth African hockey history.

The Greenfields Elite Club Chal-lenge is the only non-tertiary na-tional hockey tournament on theSA circuit to feature the country’stop club hockey teams.

The tournament was establishedin 2013 by Riverside Sports andRiverside Hockey Club to show-case proficient top class hockey bypremier players in a festival typetournament.

This year, spectators were treat-ed to an exciting display of intensehockey performances from SA’s

top players and clubs.Participating teams included the

Badgers, Kearsney Hockey Club(2nd), Riverside Hockey Club (3rd),Wanderers Hockey Club (4th) andOld Edwardians Hockey Club(5th), who were also newcomers tothe tournament, and Malik Old Al-banians Hockey Club (6th).

The Badgers would seal the dealin the final match of the festival,beating Kearsney 3-0, with goalsfrom captain Andrew Cronje, Matt-hew McConkey and Ryan Crowe.

According to Jon Cook, the Badg-ers were fully deserved champi-ons.

“Throughout this outstandingevent, the Badgers were compactin defence, inventive in midfieldand composed in front of goal.

“The Cape Town side were alsoindebted to their inspirationalgoalkeeper Mark Turner, whomade a number of breathtakingsaves at vital moments in histeam’s four matches.

“The impressive Kearsney outfitmade the Badgers work hard forthe victory, yet the goal scoring op-portunities they created didn’ttranslate into dividends.”

4-in-1 special for early birdsEARL HAUPT

@EarlHaupt

Soccer lovers in the Mother City are setfor a treat this weekend as the CapeTown Stadium will play host to the in-

augural Cape Town Cup.English Premier League side Crystal Pal-

ace, as well as 18-time Portuguese PremierLeague champions Sporting Clube de Por-tugal (Sporting Lisbon), will feature along-side local clubs Ajax Cape Town and Super-Sport United.

The tournament will kick off on Fridayat 17:45 when SuperSport United’s GordonIgesund (a former Ajax Cape Town coachhimself) and his charges pit their skillsagainst Alan Pardew’s Palace.

This will be followed by home favouritesAjax facing off against Sporting, who haverecently appointed former Benfica coachJorge Jesus to mentor the Lisbon outfit.

According to Sporting’s Joao Gomes,they are proud to be invited to play in thepre-season spectacle in Cape Town.

“We are certain that participation in thistournament will be beneficial for the prep-aration of the first team for the season,”says Gomes.

“We point out that for Sporting to partici-pate in a tournament in South Africa hasa special feeling because as early as 28 July1997 we have a strong bond – the date onwhich Nelson Mandela became a memberof merit of Sporting Clube de Portugal.”

The battle lines are drawn once again onSunday with the losers of Friday’s matcheshoping to salvage pride in the third placeplay-off, which precedes the final. It takesplace at 13:00.

Ari Efstathiou, Ajax Cape Town CEO,said at the launch of the Cape Town Cupthat the tournament would be a spring-board for future collaborations betweenthe club and the City of Cape Town.

“We hope to grow this tournament in theyears to come and host other big-name soc-cer clubs in Cape Town. “We ask for thesupport of the entire Cape Town communi-ty to make this event a hugely successfulone.”

Tickets cost between R150 and R325, withthe City offering an “early bird” promo-tion: Buy a R200 ticket for Friday’s matches(for seats on the middle tier of the northand south stands of the Cape Town stadi-um) and receive the added bonus of a free

ticket to Sunday’s final day.For those only wanting to attend one day

of the spectacle, tickets will cost R150 (eaststand) or R250 (west stand). R325 will securea ticket for a seat on the west stand for bothFriday and Sunday.

An unlimited number of tickets are availa-ble for students (over 18 years) and pension-ers (over 60 years) at R150, R250 and R325.For scholars (0-18 years), an unlimited num-ber of tickets are available at R100, R200 andR300.

No tickets will be sold at the stadium onthe day.V To keep up to date on all tournament news, follow@CapeTownCup on Twitter or visit www.capetown-cup.co.za.
