Sustain our sealifeLocal conservation organisations have
thrown their weight behind a proposedincrease to the number of marine pro-
tected areas (MPAs).BirdLife, Save Our Seas Foundation and
other organisations have started an onlinepetition to raise support for the increase inMPAs, followingan internal commitment bynational government to increase formalocean protection to 5% of the exclusive eco-nomic zone, as part of Operation Phakisa, to22 new MPAs.MPAs safeguard ocean habitats to ensure
that human activities like fishing, mining,and tourism are sustainable in the longterm.Despite their critical role, only 0.4% of
SouthAfrica’smainland oceans are current-
ly under formal protection, compared to al-most 10% of our terrestrial area. With thegrowinghumanpressures frommarinemin-ing, energy supply, fishing, aquaculture andtourism, our oceans have never been ingreater need of protection, the petition says.BirdLife South Africa, the Centre for En-
vironmental Rights, I Am Water, the SaveOur Seas Foundation and WWF-SA haveunited in their support for this process.Eleanor Yeld Hutchings, the Save Our
Seas Foundation Shark Education Centremanager, says: “We all have a stake in thisprocess. The step is the result of years of ex-cellent research, collating the best availablescience and investing in sound conservationplanning.“However, the designation of these MPAs
– seeing them through to proclamation – re-lies on the buy-in and support from not onlythe scientists and NGOs of this country, butthe South African public whose future is in-vested in this process.”Humanactivities, like fishingandmining,
are increasingly impacting the functioningof marine ecosystems, Yeld Hutchings ex-plains.“MPAs are a conservation tool to protect
vulnerable ecosystems and endangered spe-cies, setting aside ocean habitats where hu-man activities are regulated to allow for ref-uge and recovery.“This ultimatelymeans that human activ-
ities are made more sustainable in the longterm. Marine protected areas are an invest-ment in the future: for instance, by provid-
ing a place for fish to recover their popula-tions by breeding without exploitation, spe-cies can come back from the brink ofcommercial extinction.”Our oceans underpinmajor economic sec-
tors in South Africa, such as fisheries, tour-ism, aquaculture and mining, Yeld Hutch-ings says.“We need to protect and sustain ocean bio-
diversity and habitats if we are to derive thebenefits from our rich ecosystems. Ourgrowing human population, with the result-ant pressures from human activities andcommitments to future development, meansthat the number of MPAs needs to increaseto safeguard enough biodiversity to ensurea sustainable future.”V Continued on page 3

‘Rapists are useless’ – Chaka ChakaTIYESE JERANJI
@jeranji
“Today is the day we all sayenough is enough. Rape and
abuse has no colour and it doesn’tcare whether you’re white orblack, but today it must stop.”These were the words of legend-
ary musician Yvonne ChakaChaka, a guest speaker at the 11thlunch of 1000 Women UnitedAgainst Domestic Violence andAbuse, held at the Cape Town In-ternational Convention Centre(CTICC) on Thursday last week.Women from different areas
came together to speak aboutabuse and said it was time theystood together to put an end to it.The day was also used to celebratewomen who have stood tall to talkabout their circumstances. Agroup ofwomenwho are part of the“I’m Beautiful Project” spokeabout their different experiencesof violence and abuse.The exhibition will be at the
CTICC for a month. Thereafter itwill move to the Media24 buildingbefore it goes to Pick n Pay’s offi-ces.In South Africa, one in every
four women is caught in an abu-sive relationship. Every six days,a woman is murdered by her inti-mate partner.More shocking is that a woman
is raped every 25 seconds of everyday.These horrific statistics are
nothing new to people living inSouthAfrica as the escalating levelof abuse is broadcast 24hours aday
via media channels.The luncheon was a call to all
South Africans to stand togetherand speak out against the abuse ofour women.Chaka Chaka said now was the
time to fight forwomenso that theywon’t be blamed by the next gener-ation. “All men who rape and areabusive, are useless and stupid.They are notworth living.Aswom-en it’s timewe takea stand.Womenshould be nurtured and looked aft-er by men. We must work witheach other to complete one anoth-er, not to compete. Its high timemen learned to respect women. Weare not here to compete, but to beequals and work together.”She added that mothers have a
huge responsibility to play if thewar against violence and abusewas to be won. “Mothers, let’steach our children that women arenot doormats. They must be re-spected. Let’s teach our kids thatwomen are important and theyshould be valued, not trampled on.It starts at home. If we raise goodsons who respect women then wehave won the war.”Turning to women she told them
to speak against rape and abuse.“Women need to start talking
about these things, not tomake funof women being abused. In SouthAfricawehave a huge problem.Welook the other waywhen things be-gin to happen. We need to stand to-gether. Women, talk to one anoth-er. Don’t stay in an abusive rela-tionship. If he loves you, he won’tabuse you. Some stay because theyhave nowhere to go. Some stay be-
cause the man is the provider. No,God gave you your brains andhands – use them to work for your-self. Men are here to hold ourhandsandwewalk together sidebyside. We all can’t make it on ourown – we need each other as manand woman, but we should never,ever allow ourselves to be abused.”
Wendy Ackerman, patron of theevent, said shewas happy that a lotof people came out to say they havehad enough.“Themessagehas to go out there.
Touchmorewomen andwe start totalk about these things and we dosomething about it. The power ofyour voice has to be heard. At the
moment women’s voices are not asloud, but the message is very cleartoday – we’ve had enough andabuse and rape must stop now.”The money raised at the event
will help to provide access to skills,knowledge and resources and toprovide seed funding to women-ledorganisations.

South Africa has committed to a globalagreement called the Convention on Bio-logical Diversity (CBD), YeldHutchings ex-plains. “Signatories to the CBD agree toconserve biodiversity in order to providelasting development benefits to the nation.Currently, only 0.4% of South Africa’soceans are formally protected. Govern-ment has also launched Operation Phakisato develop our ‘Blue Economy’. This hope-fully represents akey step towards address-ing economic growth and equality for ourcitizens; however, sustainability should beat the core of any future development, if thebenefits from development are to be equita-ble and lasting.MPAsare a part of this solu-tion.”The declaration of new MPAs will hope-
fully lay the groundwork for increasing to-tal protection to 10% in the future, YeldHutchings says. “In tangible terms, thispresents new opportunities for alternativeforms of development, like ecotourism, inthese areas. It also sets up a sustainableframeworkwhich can support future devel-opment opportunities, as we develop ourBlue Economy and strengthen other eco-nomic sectors. Ranked as the third mostbiodiverse country in the world, South Af-ricans can rightly be proud of what repre-sents a landmark step towards recognisingthis, and implementing policies that acceptour role as custodians of this country.”

Joining global fightGARY VAN DYK
@gvdcapejazz
Learners at Holy Cross High School inMaitland are part of a global fight
against tuberculosis (TB).OnTuesday 3May they hosted some ex-
citing activities at the school as part ofthe We Beat TB project in conjunctionwith the Western Cape Department ofHealth, USAID TB Care II SA and mem-bers of the USA Congress.Alice vanZyl, provincial coordinator of
the project, explains thiswas one ofmanyinitiatives to raise awareness about TB atvarious school in the peninsula and sur-rounding areas.“The activation process started when
the learners were registered in their dif-
ferent classes while receiving a USAIDTB Care II “We Beat TB” T-shirt,” shesays.“Fromthere the learnerswent to the ac-
tivation truck where they received keyrings and We Beat TB school bags.“Different role-players of the project
entertained the children with music,dancing and health promotion on TB andHIV topics. This was an interactive ses-sion and the learners participated insharing the information they receivedfrom the role-players.”TB screening was also done according
the USAID TB Care II SA screening toolfor adults and children and the projectwill follow-up the identified TB presump-tives through theprincipal andaccordingthe school protocol.
Principal of Holy Cross High, Michael Fouche, gets introduced to the programme by USAIDTB Care II South Africa facilitators Lerato Lebona, left, and Mamorau Khaebana.
These learners from Holy Cross High School made their feelings felt about the impor-tance of TB awareness. From left, Kaylin Joseph, Ocean Cheng, Loren Sauls, Thakierah deVries and Simone Fourie. PHOTOS: GARY VAN DYK
Bounty of beauties for Ms GayGARY VAN DYK
@gvdcapejazz
On Saturday 4 June there will be a bountyof beauties at the Kensington Civic Centrefor the fifth Ms Gay Ambassador pageant.Bianca Schutter, one of the organisers, ex-
plained that this glamorous affair is hostedin Kensington because the host and founderof the pageant, LoganMcGregor, is from thearea and embarked on this project to ploughback into the community in which she wasraised.“Logan is an established drag queen, a
multiple beauty pageant title holder,” shesays.“She is a former Ms Mardi Gras National,
former Ms GayWestern Cape and the reign-ing Ms Diva South Africa.”Schutter adds that Ms Gay Ambassador is
a role model who embodies the values andmorals of adherence to the law of the land.“We host this event to illustrate fairness
and impartiality, a healthy respect for therights of all people within and outside of theboundaries of the Western Cape and SouthAfrica at large, irrespective of creed or col-our, religion or affiliation, gender or age,disability or vulnerability, and the winneris recognised as an ambassador of her com-munity and LGBTI matters.”The pageant was launched in 2012 when
Ms Gay Ambassador Zilin Ayoki Zhang was
crowned the first Ms Gay Ambassador.“The following year TasharnVonarmberg
took the title,” says Schutter.Testimony of the high standards of the
pageant and the contestants is the fact thatboth winners of this pageant have gone onto win the Ms GayWestern Cape title whichis regarded as one of the most prestigiousbeauty pageant titles in SouthAfrica, claimsSchutter.“This year, we look forward to seeing an
array of female impersonators take to thestage to vie for this title.”The event promises to provide stunning
entertainment by performers including thesensational Manila von Teez, the nationallyrenowned 3 Divas, local artist and comedianEugene Matthews and DJ Jerome Davidson(DJ Cool J).This event is one of the highlights on the
gay calendar aswell as for the local Kensing-ton community. “This gathering signifiesthe vision of Ms Gay Ambassador, aligningcommunities and merging our people into acollective population, ignorant and blind tophysical differences and preferences whichare the causes of disharmony in our commu-nities,” concludes Schutter.The event will start at 19:30. Tickets are
R50 and will be sold at the door. Refresh-ments will be on sale.V For more information send an email to [email protected].

Local kitten one of35 worldwideThe world’s rarest kitten – a Lykoi orWere-wolf Cat – has been rescued from the Com-pany’s Garden by staff and volunteers fromTears Animal Rescue Feral Cat Project.The cat, found under a bush, is the only
natural-born Lykoi on record in SouthAfri-ca and one of just 35 in the world, makingthis one of the most exciting discoveries inthe South African animal world in recentyears. Part of a litter of six kittens taken toTears for sterilisation in March after thedisappearance of their mother – a shorthaired domestic tabby – the only strange-looking kitten in the litter has since beenconfirmed as an incredibly rare Lykoi.The kitten’s strange appearance prompt-
ed Tears’ veterinarian, Dr Tracy Dicks, totake skin scrapings to test for various skindiseases. All returned negative findingsand with the help of Tears’ operations andfeline programme manager, Mandy Store,the search to uncover the mystery of thisstrange cat began in earnest.
Store says: “We even tested to see if thekitten was a Devon Rex but results alsocame back negative. The mother and fiveother kittens in the litter – all short-haireddomestic tabbies – gave us no clues aboutour new arrival so we widened our re-search. We were absolutely stunned to dis-cover that we’d brought into our shelter therarest kitten in South Africa – the weird,wonderful and legendary Werewolf Cat.”United States veterinarian and world Ly-
koi specialist, Dr Johnny Gobble, says thelittle Lykoi at Tears is the first natural mu-tation in South Africa reported to him.“The Lykoi breeder in South Africa start-
ed with Lykoi cats from another breederthat we began with our lines, so those catswere bred and did not occur naturally.”Gobble, fascinated by rare breeds and ge-
netics, was the first breeder of Lykoi in theworld from naturally occurring Lykoi. Hesays that about 20 years ago, these oddballcats were thought to have the Sphynx or

Rising young stars of the Cape Town CityBallet (CTCB) are set to take cen-
tre stage in the classic and comicballet, Coppélia, at Artscapenext week.
Based on the well-knowntale by E.T.A. Hoffmann, thissparkling production of the be-loved ballet has a short runfrom Monday 25 to Sunday29 May.
With its charm-ing and mischie-vous plot,brightly-col-ouredcostumes andglorious music,Coppélia is as ideal forfamilies and seriousdance lovers, as it is fornewcomers to the ballet.
True love triumphs inthis enchanting fairytale,which features threemain char-acters – the young Franz, his fiancéeSwanilda and the mysterious doll-maker, Dr. Coppelius, who createsthe life-like doll, Coppélia. Believ-ing the doll is a real person, Franzbecomes infatuated with her,which most definitely does notmeet with Swanilda’s approv-al. This leads to all kinds ofhilarious situationsamongst the protagonistsand culminates in a happily-ever-after wedding scene.

Maestromakesmusic inthe cityAmusician who has given Cape Town
more than “a little love” will be cominghome to The Homecoming Centre in Dis-trict Six on Friday 27 May.Ibrahim Khalil Shihab was born Chris
Schilder into the famous Schilder musicaldynasty and needs little introduction togenerations of music lovers – most notablyfor being part of Pacific Express and thesong made famous by Zayn Adams, Give aLittle Love. But it started way before that.As a 15-year-old in the early 60s, he
formed his first group with his brothersJacky on drums and Philly on bass andwent on to record one of the sought-after al-bums by collectors, Spring, that also fea-turedWinstonMankunku on sax and GaryKriel on guitar.“Yes, I started composing music long be-
fore my stint with Pacific Express andSpring was my debut album, featuring myearliest compositions,” he reflects.“I grew up in a house filled with music
and learned a lot from my elder brothersRichard and Tony – which helped me to acertain extent – but my style developedover the years by listening to classical mu-sic and following my inner voice.“However, I was influenced by Charlie
Parker, Oscar Peterson and Ahmad Jamalin the early years.”Looking back at his timewith Pacifics he
felt that it was an exciting period in his ca-reer.“There were some great musicians in the
band who inspired me to do my very bestmusically during the time of the strugglein the years of apartheid, when experi-enced and seasoned musicians were per-forming so well but had to endure and con-tend with second-rate recording studiosand bad productions.“That spurred me on to write and com-
pose all the material for the two albumsBlack Fire and Pacific Express on Time.”After leaving Pacific Express he formed
Concert Boulevard with drummer MontyWeber and then was part of Workforce atthe Village Pub inMaitland before headingfor the overseas circuit.“I have been away from Cape Town for
many years and wasn’t afforded the oppor-tunity to further my career as a composer.“Therefore, the upcoming concert pro-
vides the perfect setting forme to showcasemy current compositions and it also in-cludes that famous song,” he laughs.Another reason not to miss this concert
is that Shihabwill be performing songs des-tined for a new recording.Working with him on this concert is bas-
sist LionelBeukes, BuddyWells on sax, andLiam Webb on drums.The District Six Homecoming Centre is
at 15 Buitenkant Street. Tickets are R120and available online on www.webtick-ets.co.za.V For more information call 076 415 7244.

Driver’s attitude is keyIt is an ancient truism that the mostdangerous part of a motor vehicle is thenut behind the steering wheel, althoughobviously the Romans had their ownversion of the saying.Another saying drummed into my skull
in the days of my youthful enthusiasm fortwo wheelers is that there are old bikersand bold bikers, but there are no old-boldbikers. I must agree wholeheartedly withKeith Blake of Ottery (“Driver responsibil-ity”, People’s Post, 3 May) that “it is allabout that personal attitude while driv-ing”: something which I have repeatedlyfound to be true in the forty years since Ifirst took the wheel of a car.While all of life is dependent on “that
personal attitude” it is while in control ofa vehicle and cloaked in anonymity that a
person’s inherent attitudes are unerringlydisplayed – whether courtesy or immaturi-ty, altruism or self-centredness.This past week I noted again on the
roads those who are helpful, kind, andconsiderate, and by contrast those whogive the finger to those who observe speedlimits and other rules of the road.It is easy to pick out by their selfish
behaviour those who have no thought forothers, feel entitled to take preferenceover other road users, try to intimidateother drivers into pulling over to let thempass by tailgating at speed; in short, thosewho have not yet passed the toddler stageof “if I want it it’s mine”.Yes, personal attitude is key.
BILL ROGERSMuizenberg
Think out of the box to beat offencesWith reference to Keith Blake’s letter ondriver responsibility (“Driver responsibili-ty”, People’s Post, 3 May) I would say: thatis such old hat, nobody even considers it.Otherwise we would not have the chaoson the roads.Perhaps Mr Blake can start some
out-of-the-box thinking again and supportme in getting:1) the courts and insurance companies
to insist that after an accident even the“innocent” driver, has to do an advanceddriver’s course, at their own expense;2) all taxi and lorry/bakkie drivers pass
a driving test annually before theirlicence is renewed.3) A special court for traffic offences
such as parking, wrongful overtaking,
speeding and all other ‘simple’ trafficoffences be arranged for every 15 000 carsregistered be instituted where students-in-law must do a two-year practice.The fines they collect most probably
will cover the cost of such a court. Thiscourt must sit every day, even at week-ends, so that those visiting over theholiday time can pay their fines at once.There must be enough retired traffic
officers with plenty of years experience tofill such positions.Come Mr Blake, I am sure you will
have more ideas so that in future you willsay “my letter in the People’s Post of 3May should have said that”.

LEGAL TALK WITH DENZIL
ChangingnuptialagreementsIt is common practice that couples get mar-ried “out of community of property”. Butas people become more and more informedand educated, many wish to change theirmatrimonial regime after they have beenlegally married.Most people think that yourmatrimonial
regime is caste in “matrimonial stone”, butit can be changed after the marriage.Section 21(1) of theMatrimonial Property
Act provides that maried couples may ap-ply jointly to a court for leave to change thematrimonial property system that appliesto theirmarriage. The courtmay order thatthe existing matrimonial property systemno longer applies to their marriage andmay authorise them to enter into a notarialcontract by which their future/new matri-monial property system is to be regulatedon conditions as the court may deem fit.This Act requires that the court must be
satisfied that there are sound reasons forthe suggested change, sufficient notice ofthe suggested change has been given to allthe creditors of both spouses and that noother person will be prejudiced by the pro-posed change.The application must be brought in the
court in the area of jurisdiction in whichthe couple resides and must include infor-mation concerning any change of address.
Guidelines. Notice must be given to the Registrar
of Deeds in terms of section 97(1) of theDeeds Registries Act and must contain ap-propriate submissions with regard to theregistration procedure of the immovableproperties as contained in the agreement.
. The draft notarial contract must be an-nexed to the application.
. Notice of intention tomake the applica-tion must be published in the GovernmentGazette and two local newspapers at leasttwo weeks before the date on which the ap-plication will be heard at court.
. The date on which the application willbe heardmust be specified in the publishednotice and anyone who wishes to object tothe proposed change, or to make any repre-sentations in that regard, must be told thatthis can be done bywriting to the Registrarof the court and sending a copy to the appli-cants’ attorney, or by appearing in court onthe date of the hearing. The notice must al-so state that the application and proposedcontract can be inspected at the office of theRegistrar and the applicants’ attorney.
. At least two weeks’ prior notice of theapplication must be given by certified postto all creditors and a list of creditors, veri-fied by affidavit,must be included in the ap-plication along with proof that notice hasbeen given to them.
Financial position. Sufficient information regarding the
assets and liabilities of the couple must beset out in the application.
. The application must include detailson any past sequestration and any pendinglegal proceedings in which a creditor isseeking to recover payment of debt due byeither one of the couple.
. If any change in the parties’ financialposition occurs before the application isheard, a supplementary affidavit reflectingsuch change must be filed.
Sound reasons for the changeCare must be taken to motivate fully the
proposed change in the existing matrimo-nial property system. The reasons reasonsmust be convincing, valid and anchored toreality. Applicants must explain why noother person will be prejudiced by the pro-posed change. The order sought and thecontract which it is proposed to registermust contain a provision which preservesthe rights of pre-existing creditorsThe desire to change the matrimonial re-
gime is usually to protect assets from cred-itors. Aswe can see from the above it is pos-sible to change your matrimonial regimebut the reasons and process submitted tothe court can be onerous.
LETTERS
Death penaltyis requiredI have often wondered why it is soimportant to those who deny the deathpenalty how murders are removedfrom society.Does it really matter if the authori-
ties hang, shoot or poison the killers?Did the killers of that innocent girl,
who was killed while walking in Tokaiforest, care about her death when theyshoved her face into the dirt whilestrangling her? Did they consider herhuman rights and dignity while theysodomised her? Did they have anyconcern for her agony as she laydying?Those who refute the return of the
death penalty are in pains to find anexcuse for murderers. But never dothey mention the innocent women andchildren that are murdered every dayin this country. They never mentionthe anguish of a parent whose childwas murdered while playing in aneighbourhood park.When gangsters rob, rape and fire
guns at unarmed people – while highon drugs – why must ordinary peoplecare about the gangsters’ emotionalneeds?It is this misplaced sympathy that
has resulted in an annual SouthAfrican murder statistics of 20 000.While we have the most violent
society on earth, those – who live in awell-protected leafy suburb, far re-moved from the violence – want tolecture the victims of violence.In the words of the wise: We need
the death penalty; it is the onlypunishment criminal’s fear.

“Some of the participants also suggestedthat we consider changing the dress code
from black and white to full colour sports-wear in an effort to highlight the diversityof our rainbow nation, which we totallyagree with.”A number of schools have also indicated
that they are in the process of putting to-gether teams to participate in thewalk.Oth-er schools, corporates, church groups, sen-iors clubs, sporting bodies and especiallywalking and running clubs are encouragedto enter teams into this event.

A legend of the local entertainment indus-try has gone on to join the jam session inthe heavens.
Musical icon and legendary singer inSouth Africa, Rudolph Paulse-Porthen –known more famously as Rudolph Paulse– peacefully passed away on Wednesday 11May.He was a member of a number of vocal-
harmony groups in the ’60s and ’70s but hemade his mark as a solo performer andwasknown as the Lou Rawls of Cape Town.His version of “You’ll Never Find” was
always requested but he also made thetheme tune fromHeidi (the animatedTVse-
ries) famous by adding: “Heidi, Heidi, Watsoek jy innie Mitchell’s Plain!”
Another favourite was “Love is in the Air– wil jy staan of wil jy lê”, much to theamusement of the audience. Beyond hisability to evoke a smile with his lyrics, hisvoice always had a class of its own.
Paulse has been an entertainer for thepast 50 years and was well known in theclub and show business world.
In his career he worked with the likes ofDavid Kramer productions, the Cape TownCoon Carnival Association, various chari-ty organisations and even entertained in-ternationally in different parts of Europe.
Of his countless accolades he recently re-ceivedanaward fromtheCity ofCapeTownfor his contribution to arts and culture intheWestern Cape and inMitchell’s Plain inparticular.

Her vivid imagination has puther on the path of realising her
dreams.And now 20-year-old Tavia Mill-
ward from Ottery will soon be jet-ting off to Vancouver to fulfil herdream of becoming a successfulscreenwriter.However, the only thing stand-
ing in her way of successfully com-pleting a year course at the Van-couver Film School and “comingback to inspire the youth and cre-ate anarmyof screenwriters indis-advantaged areas and schools”, isR16 000. Millward needs people toassist and help raise this money soher seat can be kept at the filmschool that also delivered NeillBlomkamp, co-writer and directorof the critically acclaimed movieDistrict 9, as an alumni from thesame school.
“Becoming a screenwriter wasnot my first choice of career. Aftermatriculating, I applied to study inthe medical field. I assume I madethis choice because I enjoyedGrey’s Anatomy so much,” shelaughs.But Millward says her obsession
with the medically-set series wasnot because she enjoyed the field it-self, but becuase she enjoyed thefilm work.And what has made her even
more determined in her bid tomake a success of this new chal-lenge iswhen someone told her shecouldn’t do it. “I had to fetch refer-ence letters from my high schoolprincipal andwhenwespokeaboutmy future plans and I told him thatIwill be doing screenwriting he ba-sically told me that I could not doit. I was shocked that someonewhois supposed to support and moti-vate the youth could tell me this.But that day I left his office and I
told him that I would prove himwrong,” she says.Millward studied at the Cape
Peninsula University of Technolo-gy in their film department beforeshe realised that she was more in-
terestedwith the idea of havingherownwork come to life off the pagesinstead of camera operating.“I spoke to my lecturers about
this and they were very suppor-tive. My one lecturer suggested
that I start looking at my optionsand that’s when I came across theVancouver Film School.”“I was doing my hair when the
call came through and the personon the other end introduced them-selves from the Vancouver FilmSchool. At that time I did not knowthat it was the call.”After confirming that shewasac-
cepted to the school, Millward saysshe informed her family, lecturersand classmates. “My familywasn’tsurprised,” she beams, “and mylecturers and classmateswere alsoall very supportive when theyheard I wasn’t coming back thisyear,” she says.She has started a crowdfunding
campaign that has reaped onlyR2300 so far. If shemisses her dead-line topay theR16 000 theypassheracceptance on to the next candi-date.V To donate to Tavia Millward, visit http://taviatequila.wix.com/howtofundadream

Mokoka victorious in OneRunIn his debut run over 12km, South Africa’s
Stephen Mokoka showed the internation-al contingent and the top three finishers
from 2015, Emmanuel Bett, Daniel Salel andTimothy Toroitich, a clean pair of heals atthe 2016 FNB Cape Town 12 OneRun thattook place in the Mother City on Sunday 15May.
Some 13 000 runners lined up in MarineDrive next to Woodbridge Island for the sec-ond running of the FNBCape Town 12OneR-un. As in 2015, conditions were near perfectwith the temperature sitting on 12 degrees.
A frenetic start saw the first kilometre be-ing covered in 02:41. When the lead bunchof fifteen athletes went through three kilo-metres in 08:17, it was clear that the chasefor the world best time of 33:31 was on thecards. Defending champion Emmanuel Bettof Kenya and country man Daniel Salel,were driving the lead bus with Mokoka andElroy Gelant in close attendance.
Both Gelant andMokoka hadmade it veryclear before the race that they were intenton making sure that the winner’s pursestayed on home soil.
The five kilometre mark came just insidethe harbour grounds as the athletes turnedoff Marine Drive, passing in 13:55. Once inthe harbour, it was Bett who started to turnthe screws to try and shake off the South Af-rican challenge, with Salel on his shoulder.Mokoka and Gelant were having none of
it and as the athletes hit 8km, Mokoka andGelant made the break, with Salel the onlyathlete to follow the South Africans.
The nine kilometre mark was reached in25:11. Salel, Mokoka and Gelant turned intoBree Street simultaneously for the final kilo-metre.
Gelant fell off with 800m to go. Salel andMokoka raced neck andneck to the linewithMokoka edging the Kenyan by one second,coming home in 33:34 to the 33:35 of Salel.
With that Mokoka shattered the previous
record of Mathews ‘Loop ‘n Val’ Motshwara-teu by 49 seconds and missed out on theworld best time of 31:33 by a mere three sec-onds.
“It was a hard race”, said Mokoka after-wards.
“Salel pushedmy right to the line but I amhappy thatwewon the race for SouthAfrica.
Elroy (Gelant) and I worked together andwere talking to each other the whole way.So I am happy we were able to work as ateam.”Mokoka has been adamant that South Af-
rica has the ability to take the race to theKenyans if they work as a team. “I wantedthe win first,” Mokoka went on to say ofbreaking the SA best time of Motshwarateu(34:23), “but the record is a big bonus.”The bonus was worth an additional
R10 000 to Mokoka over and above theR40 000 for first prize.In the women’s race, Irvette Van Zyl was
first across the line. While most expectedthat, Van Zyl had been battling with the flufor close on a week and almost withdrew aft-er four kilometres in. “Itwas hard. I felt real-ly bad and wanted to just stop.”
Van Zyl hung on though and despite feel-ing out of sortswent into the lead after sevenkilometres and was never headed.
“When Lebogang went through the first-two kilometres in sixminutes I was hangingon as best I could. I do not know how I wasable to just stick it out. I am very surprisedby the win.”
Van Zyl was originally planning on chas-ing the SA best time of Elana Meyer (38:39),but having just recovered from flu she sether sights on thewin crossing the finish linein 39:40.Results:Men:1. Stephen Mokoka - 00:33:342. Daniel Salel - 00:33:353. Elroy Gelant - 00:33:424. Sibusiso Nzima - 00:34:085. Sibabalwe Gladwin Mzazi - 00:34:09Women:1. Irvette van Zyl - 00:39:402.

Bringing home the Vans titleJordy Maree from Kalk Bay has clinched
the junior titles at theVansSurf ProClas-sic which was completed in epic 1.0 to 1.3
metre waves and ideal conditions at YoYo’sin Lambert’s Bay on Sunday.The first World Surf league (WSL) events
to be run north of Cape Town on the Westcoast of SouthArica, the Vans Surf Pro Clas-sic showcased the country’s best men andjunior surfers as they chased a total prize-purse ofR50 000 and invaluable points on thequalifying series and WSL Africa regionalrankings.The junior final saw a quartet of the coun-
try’s topu.18 rippers tearingup the pumpingA-frame peaks withMaree dominating fromstart to finish to clinch his first JQS eventtitle in style. Accumulating scores of 8.33and 9.33 on his opening rides, Maree had hisopponents in a combination situation fromthe outset. Jake Elkington, also from Kom-metjie, delivered a 7.67 but still needed anear-perfect 9.99 while Adin Masencampfrom Strand and Max Elkington (appearingin a final with his brother for the first time),needed to improve both their counting rideswhen the heat ended.“That’s my first JQS victory and I’m su-
per-stoked. I’ve been training hard and itwas good to get a win under my belt,” saysan elated Maree.“There were so many waves that I just
waited for priority and chose the best ones.
That played in my favour and I got an 8.33and a 9.33 which was enough for the win.”Themen’s semi-finals were nail-biting en-
counters punctuated by incredible manoeu-vreswith both going down to thewire. In thefirst, deVries rackedupanexcellent 8.83 andfollowed thatwith a 7.77 before DaveyBrandgot on the scoreboard. The goofy foot fromKommetjie respondedwith scores of 7.93 and8.33 and, needing 8.28 for a place in the final,he came agonisingly close when he wasawardedan8.10 onhis last ride in the closingseconds.“It went verywell in terms of themy strat-
egy and the riding of the waves, but it’stough to figure out what went wrong there,because I don’t know what really did,” saysa disappointed Brand.“I’ve surfed here at YoYo’s a few times and
I rate it highly. As a contest venue for a QSyou probably couldn’t get anywhere betterand its pretty awesome that Vans broughtthe event up here.”The final of the QS1000 rated men’s event
saw Beyrick De Vries from uMhlanga andMichael February from Kommetjie go headto head in a spectacular high-flying airshow. With a light crosswind blowing per-fectly into the rights, both surfers puntedmanoeuvres above the lip on virtually everyride and each ended up counting a pair ofeight-point scores.It was de Vries’ rides that impressed the
judges more though, and he earned his firstQS event title along with R12 000 in prize-money and 1000 pointswhenhis 8.67 and 8.47left him a slim 0.40 of a point ahead of Febru-ary’s 8.23 and 8.07.
“Thanks to the locals for letting us usetheirwaves and especially to Vans for bring-ing a QS event to a spot where the waves areso good,” said de Vries on the podium beforegoing on to thank his sponsors and familyfor their fantastic support. “Thankyou to ev-eryone who came, you looked left or rightand everybody was smiling. Big ups!”
His points haul moved de Vries into thetop 100 on the QS ranking after just twoevents this year,while February’s 750 pointssaw him jump into the top 30.
“The final was always going to be a toughone, especially against Beyrick and with thewaveswe’ve beenhaving,” said February. “Ihad priority for the last seven minutes andnothing came, but I’m happy anyway. Thiswave is the best, it really brings out the bestin everyone’s surfing and allows you to useyour whole repertoire of manoeuvres.”
The second semi saw February open upwith an 8.67 and an incredible 9.50 beforeMatt McGillivray (Jeffreys Bay) posted hisfirst meaningful score of 7.50. The lankyKommetjie ripper then added an even better9.60 which left McGillivray facing a daunt-ing 19.10 total, the highest of the event.
But SA’s highest raneked QS surfer took
off on a setwave andposted a perfect 10 pointride, his second of the event, to get back intocontention. Still requiring 9.10, McGillivraywaited patiently but did not get the opportu-nity to complete what would have a famouscomeback and had to settle for third placeoverall and a haul of 560 points and R3000.“I knew Mikey (February) was going to
throw down some big scores and he got twonines on the lefts. So I waited a long time fora set andmanaged a 10 to break the combina-tion, but nothing more came in the last cou-ple of minutes, said McGillivray.“I’m still happy withmy performance and
the way I surfed. And I’ve never had two 10sin an event, so I’m stoked.”The Vans Surf Pro Classic has set the bar
for performance surfing in SouthAfrica andYoYo’shas establishedan instant reputationas one of the best contest sites in the country,being likened to the famous Lower Trestlesin California by many of the competitorsVans Surf Pro Classic final results:1. Beyrick de Vries (uMhlanga) 1 000
