    BOSTON: QUESTIONS OVER CHILD LABOUR

    MICHELLE LINNERT & ASTRID FEBRUARIE

    @linnertmb

    I

    ts nothing less than child labour under

    the pretence of doing work for the greater

    good.

    This is the sentiment held by concerned

    Boston communitymembers who took to so-

    cial media about a group of children whom

    they believe to be the victims of blatant ex-

    ploitation by their church and an NGO the

    children work for.

    The children apparently sell cookies be-

    fore and after school on behalf of the Ambas-

    sadors forChristWorldOutreachMinistries

    (AFC) situated in Elsies River, and go to

    school there and in Bishop Lavis.

    These childrenwere interviewed by aBos-

    toner, Vicki Fick, who is also a local youth

    counsellor.

    There is a 15-year-old girl and 17-year-old

    boy, and the 14-year-old boy says that he is

    at JohnRamsayHigh.They say that themin-

    istry feeds them breakfast, school lunch and

    dinner, Fick said.

    They told her they didnt receive any pay-

    ment for their work, which involves selling

    the cookies from Bellville to Parow, Fick

    said.

    They also told her they very rarely finish

    homework before 22:00.

    They eat after 19:00 and do homework un-

    til 22:00, sometimes 23:00, before getting up

    at 05:30 to start the same procedure, Fick

    said.

    Their parents live inCapeTown, but they

    were selected by the ministry to live there,

    on the premises, in communes. I feel that

    these kids are being exploited and they seem

    to think that this is the best life they can get.

    I would like to know why these minors

    are sitting with these adult responsibilities,

    instead of focusing on their schooling, she

    said.

    You dont take kids in from such a young,

    influential age and tell them to do Gods

    work by selling cookies, instead of teaching

    them the value of being a child and above

    all, focusing on their schooling, because

    they have the rest of their lives to work. Do

    you think God would approve?

    These kids cant partake in sport, be-

    cause they have cookies to sell.

    The cookies are produced by the bakery

    of the Safe Cities organisation, which aims

    to empower poor communities, according to

    their website.

    Their website states they are an organisa-

    tion that serves children, youth and fami-

    lies in previously disadvantaged communi-

    ties such as Atlantis, Bishop Lavis, Elsies

    River, Manenberg and Khayelitsha.

    Safe Cities and the AFC punt the children

    selling the cookies as ... a teamof dedicated

    young people that go out on a daily basis sell-

    ing the cookies produced in our very own

    bakery.

    Onweekend and school holidayswe have

    students coming to volunteer and sell. By do-

    ing this, it teaches business skills, the web-

    site states.

    Safe Cities also has a housing project and

    block-making factory and mechanical skills

    training of unemployed people, and they

    provide meals and a safe haven to some des-

    titute women and children, their website

    states.

    The pictures on the website show a lot of

    positive images of the people working in

    their bakery, as well as children participat-

    ing in some of their activities, and their

    housing project, among others.

    TygerBurger interviewed some of the chil-

    dren on the street onTuesday, before school.

    They seemed entirely unsure of why they

    were actually selling the cookies.

    Asked bluntly whether they liked doing

    this job, a 14-year-old responded that she

    didnt know.

    After at least eight emails, as many phone

    calls to the numbers supplied on their web-

    site and at least six messages to three key

    people from the AFC church, the children fi-

    nally gave TygerBurger a number for one

    Joy Josephs, a senior from the church, on

    Tuesday.

    Josephs was sitting in her BMW when

    TygerBurger arrived, and when questioned

    about thehours the childrenwork, eventual-

    ly responded that this was a race issue.

    FROM PAGE 1

    When asked about this afterwards, Joseph

    denied having told our journalist that if

    there had been white children doing the

    work, this would not have been an issue,

    stating outrightly our journalist was lying.

    I wasnt aware it was an interview; be-

    sides, there were three other peole standing

    around me who can vouch I never said any-

    thing like that; that this is not the case.

    She gave TygerBurger the number for

    project leader George Josephs, who said he

    had left a voice message for TygerBurger to

    get into contact. However, no such message

    could be found.

    Are these children being exploited? No.

    They do well in school, they work and ask

    for donations and do collections to further

    our cause on a daily basis, he said.

    This is why we wanted you to come and

    check out our programme; to see that they

    work hard, that they pass every year. Why

    didnt they seem positive when you inter-

    viewed them? Well, maybe they were nerv-

    ous, he said.

    These children are happy. The fact is not

    that they are working, but that they are do-

    ing a community service and that they are

    doing it under our programme.

    Be careful

    Would you rather have them smoking

    dagga, or doing this, that or the other? We

    want you to come and see our success sto-

    ries, to see howmany people we have helped

    people who have gone through this pro-

    gramme, said Josephs.

    Whatever you are going to put out there,

    remember if its the truth, we are okay with

    it, but if its a lie, we are going to have to

    do something about it, so be careful before

    you publish something, Josephs said.

    A very thin line

    TygerBurger next contacted at least two

    youth agencies to further question the legiti-

    macy of these childrens work.

    Chairperson of Kraaifontein youth orga-

    nisation,HewLinCompassion,Hewitt de Ja-

    ger, said he had seen the children himself,

    selling the cookies near Parow.

    There are youngsters at the robots before

    the N1 bridge after Karl Bremer, as well as

    at the corner orMikePienaarBoulevardand

    Frans Conradie Road, he said.

    Although a very thin line between the

    two, there is this distinct difference between

    push-and-pull factors and child exploita-

    tion.

    Child exploitation is the manipulation of

    under-aged children to advanceyourown in-

    terests. The Basic Conditions of Employ-

    mentAct (BCEA)makes it a criminal offence

    to employ a child under 15 years of age or

    under the minimum school-leaving age, if

    older, De Jager said.

    Therefore, if the children in this case are

    proven to be under-age, it would be a clear

    violation of the law and regarded as child ex-

    ploitation. The facts state that these under-

    aged children go out andwork, and in return

    they are provided with shelter, food, and so

    forth, he said. If these facts are proven to

    be true, we would conclude this to be a case

    of child abuse, and therefore a direct viola-

    tion of the BCEA.

    Call for investigation

    Janice Sparg, chairperson of the Western

    Cape Street Childrens Forum, agreed.

    I would say an investigation should be

    done by the department of social develop-

    ment questioning the parents, the school

    teachers, the church and the children.

    Even if everybody is okay with the situa-

    tion, it is still child labour and I do think the

    children are being exploited, she said.

    One would have to look at the home cir-

    cumstances of the parents: are they terribly

    poor and the children in a better situation

    than they would be? Do the parents know

    that the childrenare expected towork in this

    way? If not, how do they feel about it? If so,

    are they okay with it? This is telling about

    whether the children would be safe in ei-

    ther situation, with parents or church, she

    said.

    What are the new home circumstances

    now for the children at the church hostel?

    Are they well cared for? Are the children be-

    inghelpedwith theirhomework, completing

    their homework and performing well, ac-

    cording to the teachers, or are they tired,

    overworked and coming to school unpre-

    pared and showing signs of parental ne-

    glect by the church?

    Sparg said there were a lot of deeper is-

    sues.

    It is not like richer kids in richer areas.

    Bishop Lavis is an extremely poor area (like

    the other surrounding areas, Kalksteenfon-

    tein, Valhalla Park, Netreg) where most of

    our street children come from.

    The churchmight feel as if they are doing

    the kids a huge favour by giving them this

    opportunity for a better life a life where

    they learn life skills.

    However, it is a situation thatwouldneed

    to be carefully investigated to ascertain

    what the best interests of the child in their

    particular situation would be.

    Once more information is acquired, it

    might be found that the churchs pro-

    gramme just needs to be tweaked to make it

    more appropriate for children of this age.

    We need to get more involved in situa-

    tions like these for there to be real improve-

    ment for children in these poor areas and in

    dire circumstances.

    I challenge the public to do more than

    write about it on Facebook.

    here? Let us know at [email protected].

    Two Fidelity Guards officers feared for

    their liveswhen they cameunder attack last

    weekatAirportMallBelhar inBelharDrive

    A delegation of cleaners and gardeners em-

    ployed by outsourced companies at Univer-

    sity of the Western Cape (UWC) held a si-

    lent protest demanding for immediate

    insourcing and a minimum wage.

    The protest follows a meeting with the

    rector of the university on Monday 22 Feb-

    ruary where the protesters repeated their

    demands for immediate insourcing and a

    minimum wage of R10 000 per month.

    UWC spokesman Luthando Tyhalibongo

    says the executive management reiterated

    their position that UWCs precarious finan-

    cial situationdoesnot put theminaposition

    to afford insourcing at a minimum wage of

    R10 000 per month.

    Tyhalibongo says their wage subsidy and

    the study benefit that the university is cur-

    rently giving to the outsourcedworkers rep-

    resent the best they can do at the moment,

    without compromising the future sustaina-

    bility of the university.

    However,UWCcommitted to look into the

    position of temporary cleaning and garden

    workers who have not received the R2000

    subsidy and the study benefit.

    Tyhalibongo says the workers left the

    meeting peaceful, but congregated in front

    of the administration building, singing gen-

    erally inapeacefulmanner, albeit that litter

    from rubbish bins were splashed around.

    The protesting group then proceeded to

    the rest of the campus and we have con-

    firmed reports of classes being affected.

    They later attempted to occupy the library

    and set alight a wastepaper bin in the base-

    ment of the library, he says.

    Staff and students evacuated the library

    as smoke from the basement entered the

    main library through the extractors. Secu-

    rity personnel were deployed to protect the

    adjacent Robben Island-Mayibuye archive

    and the police then moved onto campus to

    monitor the situation.

    Asmuchasweempathisewith theplight

    of the outsourced workers, we also have an

    obligation to protect the rights of all staff

    and students and to ensure the integrity of

    the academic programme.

    UWC has appealed to the service compa-

    nies to engage their staff to ensure that they

    refrain from disrupting the academic activ-

    ities and to assist the university in manag-

    ing the situation. We call on students and

    workers to desist fromviolent activities and

    to respect the right of others to study and

    their right not to protest, he adds.

    UWC trashed once again

    to speak out about what is happening in

    their homes and in the community; to report

    crime and gang activity if they want a safer

    community, Plato says.

    He says the fingers people keep pointing

    at governmentmust be pointed back at those

    accusing the government of not doing

    enough to eradicate the community of

    crime.

    Parents must start investing more time

    in their children. Pay close attention towhat

    theyaredoing,who theyare socialisingwith

    and where they are. They must engage with

    their children and encourage them to take

    responsibility of their actions and future,

    he says.

    Plato explains that a mother knows her

    house and if their child is involved in crimi-

    nal activity she knows about it. She can

    lookat themandknowtheyaredoingwrong,

    but many pretend that their child is not in-

    volved in any illegal activities.

    We live in a society where parents speak

    among each other about the activities their

    children are involved in, but they do not re-

    port these activities to the police, instead

    they turn a blind eye and go on with their

    lives, says Plato.

    Hewent on to say that they keep the devil

    in their homes evenwhen they see the pain

    of other parents who have lost their child

    through a shooting or other form of crime,

    they keep quiet knowing that their child

    may have had a hand in the crime.

    There are families who accept that their

    child or children are involved in gang activi-

    ty because they benefit from the drug sales.

    Their children give them money and they

    ask no questions and this is another reason

    why they do not report the illegal activi-

    ties, Plato says.

    He has had parents complain to him

    about their children between the ages of 12

    and 15 who are hitmen, who are lured in-

    to gangs with promises of earning money

    and being able to do whatever they want.

    In one incident during a drug raid in Uit-

    sig, Plato explains they came across a

    group of children between the ages of 10

    and 15 sitting and smoking hubbly bubbly

    while they were supposed to be at school.

    When I questioned them about not be-

    ing at school they said it was their right to

    choose whether or not they wanted to at-

    tend school, and the mother who was at

    homewith them, agreedwithher child, he

    says.

    Plato says he struggles to understand

    how a parent allows his or her child to con-

    trol them, and how a parent can allow a

    child to choose to go to school or not.

    The end result will be that the child will

    become a gangster, alcoholic, drug dealer

    or addict due to the parents negligence,

    he says.

    A resident who requested to speak under

    condition of anonymity, says her grandchild

    who is 10 years old, refuses to go to school

    and threatened to kill all of them.

    He has no respect for us and tells us that

    it is what he wants to do. I do not knowwhat

    to do or how to help him get his mind

    straight to understand that although he has

    rights, he is a child and needs to be guided,

    she says.

    Others shared the same concerns and

    spokeabout the spate of crime in the commu-

    nity robberies and attempted murders,

    house break-ins and domestic violence.

    It is heartbreaking to see our own people

    in the community rob each other and think

    nothing of it. Those who commit the crimes

    come from the community and surrounds,

    but no action is taken against them, because

    people are afraid to speak up about it, an-

    other resident says.

    Plato adds that if each family can focus on

    their own homes and children, it will better

    their chances of decreasing and deterring

    crime in the community. Parentsmust take

    charge now and push their children to do

    better, encourage them and be active and

    positive role models to them, he says.

    @febastrid

    I

    f you are unable to sleep or find yourself

    up late at night, then you can help keep

    your community safe by joining the local

    neighbourhood watch.

    This is a call from the Riverton Estate

    Neighbourhood Watch in Elsies River who

    strongly believes that the decision lies with

    each of the residents to deter crime.

    Steve Ross, chairperson of the watch,

    says they are not about fighting crime or

    purposefully engagingwith thugs, but to de-

    ter criminal activity and to inform the com-

    munity of potential threats of crime.

    Are we going to leave it to others or are

    we going to join forces in securing our com-

    munity, as our personal safety is just as im-

    portant as anyone elses?

    Neighbourhood watch members should

    not engage in fights or with armed persons

    this is why we partner with and call on

    the police to do that, Ross says.

    The watch members stay connected

    through emails and their WhatsApp alert

    group to ensure everyone in the community

    has the same power to curb crime.

    We are the eyes and ears of our neigh-

    bours and we need to watch over others

    property as you would want them to watch

    over yours, Ross says.

    He explains the neighbourhoodwatch pa-

    trollers are no different from anyone else,

    except that they have committed them-

    selves to active duty of patrol and response

    when they are available.

    Ross says the neighbourhood watch has

    about 23 out of 2100 adult residents who are

    active.

    They are exhausted because they patrol

    most days of the week, yet they have to go

    to work and care for their families as well.

    Therefore we are calling on more residents

    tobecomeactivepatrollers sowecandouble

    up on our efforts and have a better balance

    when it comes to patrolling, he says.

    Ross says residents can join the neigh-

    bourhood watch without leaving their

    homes. Those who are up late at night can

    use that time to sit in a dark room facing

    the road and slightly open the blinds or cur-

    tains. This allows you to see others outside,

    while they cannot see you.

    You can watch over your own street and

    record all activity and call the police and

    alert the community via the WhatsApp

    group, if you consider the activity to be sus-

    picious. Do this during daytime as well.

    Residents are further encouraged not to

    be paranoid, but to apply basic safety and

    security measures like not placing bins out

    the night before collection and taking the

    bin in as soon as possible after collection.

    V If you would like to join the Riverton Estate Neigh-

    bourhood Watch and participate in patrols, call

    Steve Ross on 081 389 8026.

    M

    ore than100 learners fromGoodwood

    College in Ruyterwacht armed with

    paint brushes, dirt bags and gloves

    took to Elsies River canal in Riverton Estate

    to get rid of the grime in an effort to deter

    crime.

    The learners in partnership with Opera-

    tionRestorePride and theCity of CapeTown

    engaged in a transformation of the canal

    fromChelsea to Paul Kruger avenues on Fri-

    day 19 February.

    Operation Restore Pride was established

    by the Riverton Estate Residents Associa-

    tion (Rera) in an effort to uplift, unite and

    secure the community.

    Thanks to various community projects

    and partnering with other community orga-

    nisations, schools and the City, they have

    transformed their community.

    Several City departments supported the

    initiative.

    These included safety and security, City

    Parks and environmental resource manage-

    ment.

    The paint, paint brushes, dirt bags and

    gloves were supplied by the latter.

    Take ownership

    Steve Ross, chairperson of Rera, says they

    are proud to partner with a school that has

    vision and passion to take ownership of its

    surroundings.

    We applaud the principal of the school,

    as well as her staff who came out with their

    learners to make a visible difference in the

    neighbourhood, he says.

    After encouraging speeches byward coun-

    cillor Clive Justus and the principal, the

    learnerswere enthusiastic and full of energy

    as they covered themore than 500 metres on

    either side of the canal in just less than an

    hour.

    Quick work

    The learners wasted no time in cleaning

    up the banks of the canal and painting its

    concrete edges, Ross says.

    It was important for us to get the learners

    involved so they too could realise the impact

    they can have on the community and envi-

    ronment when taking ownership of their

    surroundings, he adds.

    Ross says they took on the work as crimi-

    nal activity along the canal and bridge is of

    great concern to residents.

    He adds many people cross the bridge to

    get to the station and many robberies have

    been reported there.

    Painting thebridgewhitewillmakepedes-

    trians crossing the bridge more visible and

    creates a sense of safety.

    Clean surroundings deter criminal activ-

    ity. We often have cleaning projects where

    the community is involved.

    The canal is a hotspot for dumping and

    robberies and thereforewewanted to beauti-

    fy the space. Where there is community in-

    volvement there is less crime, Ross be-

    lieves.

    ford campus held a graduation ceremony on Friday 12 February at the I-can Centre in Elsies

    River. Graduates received certificates for courses ranging from essential business skills to IT

    essentials.

    Riebeeck Street Primary School will host its

    first major fundraising event, a fun walk/

    run in March, and urges the public to sup-

    port them.

    The school is situated inBelhar Extension

    13, and as a no-fees institution is dependent

    on fundraising events and donations from

    the private sector to attend to learner re-

    quirements in extra-mural activities and

    other needs.

    They are urging the public to assist them

    with a donation of any kind, be it monetary

    or products, and to join them on Friday 4

    March at 09:15 for the fundraising fun walk/

    run event. They are planning to hand out

    goody bags, T-shirts or caps to the first 200

    learner entries and have lucky draws on the

    day of the event for parents as well as

    learners.

    Each learner will receive a collection card

    which amounts to R120 and also a school

    drawstring backpack when he/she returns

    the completed card. Parents who would like

    to participate need to pay an entry fee of R30.

    They will be part of a lucky draw at the end

    of the event.

    The walk/run (5km) will take place in the

    vicinity of the school and will end on the

    school grounds. The foundation phase

    learners will walk a shorter route.

    Learners will have placards with slogans

    to promote fitness and a healthy life style

    during the event. The school will sell boere-

    wors rolls and entertain learnerswith jump-

    ing castles and slip slides.

    V For more information or to support the school

    through donations and to participate, contact the

    school on 021 952 1250.

    Koes, sister, want ons stry oor jou k

    MICHELLE LINNERT

    @linnertmb

    R

    aai, raai: wat is nie regtig n

    koek nie, pronk met n straat

    in Kaapstad wat daarna ver-

    noem is, bestaanuit variantewaar-

    van een se wortels diep inMaleisi

    begrawe l, en het n stropie mt

    of sonder anys wat daardeur

    loop?

    nKoeksister, natuurlik!Of, as jy

    dan nou van die Kaap is en die spe-

    seryagtige een verkies, n koesis-

    ter sonder die tweede k (di

    heerlike eetding het immers Penz-

    straat in die Bo-Kaap tot Koeksis-

    ter-heuwel herdoop gekry ...)

    Meeste mense wat enigiets van

    nuuskantore weet, weet dat die

    vreemdste s-goed uit daardie in-

    ligtingsgrotte ontsnap of oor-en-

    weer gegooi word. S was dit ook

    toe n klomp in die TygerBurger-

    kantoor op die drukspertyd oor

    koeksisters begin redeneer het.

    Die een van Bloemfontein wat

    lief is vir kosmaak en darem sy

    kardamom van sy kremetart

    uitken, begin die debat deur ewe

    dapper en vol selfvertroue te ver-

    klaar (tussen die klomp Kape-

    naars) dat daar gn verskil is nie.

    En hyhaal boonop sy feite uit die

    Handwoordeboek vandieAfrikaan-

    se Taal aan! En selfs met opperste

    opposisie, weier hy om hom van

    stryk te laat bring.

    Dt ontlok toe die gegons en n ge-

    jeuk wat gekrap mt word: Wat is

    die verskil nou eintlik tussen die

    twee?

    TygerBurger wend hom toe eers

    tot die sosiale media.

    Lionel Adendorf vat dadelik

    raak: Koeksisters word gevleg, en

    koesisters het anys in en word dan

    in stroop gedoop en later met klap-

    per bestrooi.

    Jannie Hennop (toevallig ook n

    Vrystater), s: Geen verskil nie

    albei is watertandlekker. Meer

    plaaslik stem Theresa Olivier

    100% met Adendorf saam: Dis

    hoe ek hom ook ken. My mond wa-

    ter nou vir die koesister met anys,

    in stroop gedoop en geklapper.

    Petro-ann Nicholas bring n hele

    nuwe dimensie tot die redenasie:

    Michelle Linnert, dan is daar na-

    tuurlik ook die oliebol, wat in En-

    gels doughnut genoem word. Dis

    sonder die anys en sy tekstuur ef-

    fens sagter. Dit het baie variasies

    room, custard, met klapper, son-

    derklapper. Strooisuikerwordook

    soms in plaas van klapper ge-

    bruik. Toevallig bak Nicholas oor

    naweke van die sonder-k-soort.

    Moerieda Carolus en Quinton

    Adams meen die een is gevleg en

    word deur die tannies vir die tuis-

    nywerhede gebak en die ander se

    oorsprong is in ons eie kombuise,

    wat eg Bo-Kaaps is, met te veel

    liefde en stroop in.

    Vir Kupido Baron gee die uit-

    spraak die deurslag: Die uit-

    spraak het te doenmet hoeveel tan-

    de jy nog oorhet ... en volgensLize

    Mulder: Ooee, Michelle Linnert,

    by die Groenpunt-dagkliniek

    waarnatoe ek my ma een keer n

    maand vat, is daar koesisters soos

    net n engel dit kanmaak! Jy salmy

    nie met n koeksister vermaak nie,

    maar met daai taai, soet anys en

    klapperbolle ... Ai man, dan ver-

    geet ek gerieflikheidshalwe van di-

    abetes en vetrolle en alles anders!

    Volgens Wilma Paulse, n gereken-

    deMoslem-kok, het die koesister

    met sy donkerbruin velletjie ook

    speserye soos neut, kaneel en gem-

    mer in. Endie gevlegtes is twistees

    met nt anys, liggies gestroop en in

    klapper getol.

    Sy s bollas weer, is rond met

    korente in en gesprinkel met ver-

    siersuiker. Koeksisters is ook ge-

    draai, maar amper hol binne, wat

    dan in koue stroop gedoop word,

    met geen klapper.

    Volgens Charlene Fourie is die

    verskil semanties: Koesister is

    maar net streektaal, soos vadoek,

    vir afdroogdoek.

    Die Kalahari-joernalis Anena

    Burger antwoord van daar doer bo

    uit die hittegolwe: Sy ken die een

    sonder die k as n curly.

    My ma het hulle aan kafees ge-

    smous. Hulle is vir haar deur n

    Moslem-bakkery in Eersterivier

    gebak. Sover ek weet is hulle oor-

    sprong uit die Bo-Kaap, s sy.

    Hulle is sag aan die binnekant en

    in stroop en klapper gedoop met n

    bietjie kaneel. n Koeksister is die

    harde, stroopsoetweergawe.Ekeet

    enige dag eerder n curly.

    Volgens Anena is die beste plek

    in die hele wreld om watertand-

    koeksisters te kry, ook in die Kaap.

    Koesister of curly het net so een

    of twee draaie, waar n koeksister

    gevleg is. n Koeksister neem ook

    natuurlik die aard van die vlegter

    aan. Partymense vleg dit soos jy n

    vlegsel sal maak,met drie repe, an-

    der weer net met twee.

    Maar as jy nou jouself wil be-

    derf, vra vir Francor-bakkery in

    Parow of jy kan gaan kyk hoe die

    vroue daar koeksister vleg. Ek s

    jou, jou mond sal oophang. Hulle

    vleg daai koeksisters sommer so

    met een hand en so vinnig ...

    Maarwat is n argument dannou

    ook sonder die nodige feite ter sta-

    wing? TygerBurger het die hulp

    vanFatimaSydow, n baie bekende

    kenner van Maleise kookkuns en

    kookboekskrywer, wat ook gereeld

    van haar resepte met koerantle-

    sers deel, gekontak om lig op di

    klapperige saak te werp.

    Ons het grootgeword met die

    koeksisters op n Sondag. My ma

    het dit destyds verkoop. Vir die na-

    vorsing vir my kookboek is ek na

    ons oueres om te hoor hoekom dit

    juis op n Sondag verkoop is.

    Dit blyk toe dat omdat almal

    groot gekook het vir Sondagmid-

    dagete, die koesisters gebruik is

    om solank die gaatjie in maag te

    vul! vertel sy. Die mense sou uit

    die kerkkom indieBo-Kaap endan

    hul koesisters koop. Dit het n

    groot tradisie geraak. Sy s die

    enigste verskil tussen die twee, be-

    halwe vir die vorm, is dat die

    Kaaps-Maleise mense oneindig lief

    is vir speserye! Ja n, ons voeg

    speserye by amper alles. Dis n am-

    per genetiese geurbasis wat ons

    kan onthou. Dis ietswaarnamense

    smag.O, endie eintlikewoord s in-

    Mayor visits

    dwellers to

    hear concerns

    ASTRID FEBRUARIE

    @febastrid

    L

    ack of water, proper sanita-

    tion and no electricity box-

    es are only but a few of the

    issues raised by backyard dwell-

    ers inKalksteenfonteinduring a

    house-to-house visit this week.

    executive mayor Patricia De

    Lille on Monday visited back-

    yard dwellers to hearwhat their

    concerns are with regard to ser-

    vice delivery.

    The visit forms part of the

    Citys backyarders project

    which aims to improve the lives

    of residents through providing

    themwithbasic services suchas

    plumbing, electrical services

    and sanitation, De Lille says.

    Waiting list

    The Kalksteenfontein 331

    Backyarder services started in

    February last year and will end

    on Thursday 31 May.

    The City has completed 197 of

    water, electricity and sanitation

    installationswith 134which still

    need to be rolled out.

    One of the backyard dwellers,

    Hillary Jegels, who has been on

    the housing waiting list for

    more than 24 years, says she

    hopes one day to move from the

    backyard into a formal struc-

    ture.

    I live here with my husband

    and two sonsand the space isnot

    enough for all of us. However,

    we do with it what we must and

    appreciate having a roof over

    our heads, she says.

    Jegels says the issues they

    have is not only with regard to

    service delivery, but more so

    with living in someones back-

    yard which, at times, can create

    a tense environment.

    It really is frustrating to not

    have a house to call my own. I

    do not want to live like this for-

    ever because of the personal is-

    sues we have with those living

    in the main house. We often feel

    like we are a burden to them,

    she says.

    Jegels further claims that the

    main house belongs to her hus-

    bands late father, but due to is-

    sues with his late stepmother

    the house was never left in his

    name.

    We have tried everything to

    get the property into my hus-

    bands name but to no avail. We

    have raised our concerns with

    the mayor and hopefully there

    will be light at the end of the ter-

    ribly dark tunnel, she says.

    Jegels says what makes it dif-

    ficult to get the house in her hus-

    bands name, is that they are not

    completely clued up onwhat the

    requirements are.

    Meanwhile, she says, they

    have issues with the sanitation

    facility and water from time to

    time, as well as electricity.

    We were once cut off of elec-

    tricity for four years and it was

    hell for my family. I had to buy

    groceries every day to make

    supper for my family. When we

    bought cooldrink we had to

    drink it immediately. When I

    am off from work I cant do my

    washing because of the personal

    gripe the residents in the main

    house have, Jegels says.

    She feels extremely discour-

    aged by the lack of assistance

    she has been getting from the lo-

    cal rent office and feels her con-

    cerns are not being handled the

    way they should.

    Concerns noted

    De Lille committed to looking

    into Jegels case and to provide

    her with feedback.

    If the family has all the docu-

    mentation at hand and if her

    husband had been living on the

    property with his late father for

    the longest period between he

    and his siblings, he is entitled to

    the property, she says.

    Meanwhile De Lille visited

    three other homes during the

    walk-a-bout and encouraged one

    couple to register their details

    on the housing database.

    Another backyarder com-

    plained about not having an

    electricity box fitted while an-

    other said the sanitation facility

    was not correctly fitted as the

    door is too close to the toilet pot.

    All their concerns were noted

    and each was told that their ser-

    vice delivery issues will be at-

    tended to as part of the back-

    yarders programme.

    We are committed to im-

    prove the lives of our residents

    and work with them to make

    progress possible, De Lille

    says.

    P

    roperty owners will now

    be able to view the latest

    valuation for 2015 of their

    property.

    The City of Cape Town has

    completed the General Valua-

    tion Roll (GVR) for 2015 and it

    was published on the Citys

    website last Friday.

    According to a media release

    by the City, property owners

    will soon receive an official no-

    tice in the post or via e-mail, ad-

    vising them of the 2015 valua-

    tion of their properties.

    The City produces a GVR

    once every three years. The per-

    centage increase or decrease on

    the value of a particular proper-

    ty or properties does, however,

    not necessarily equate to the

    percentage increase or decrease

    in future rates payments, Ian

    Neilson, the Citys executive

    deputy mayor, said.

    The Citys GVR is based en-

    tirely on the market value on 1

    August 2015. The City valuer

    makes use of a computer model-

    ling programme called Comput-

    erAssistedMassAppraisal (CA-

    MA), which uses sales data, aer-

    ial imagery and other property

    information such as the proper-

    tys location, size, number of

    rooms, outbuildings, general

    quality and view to determine

    the market value of a property.

    The results are then reviewed

    by professional property valu-

    ers and adjusted if necessary.

    There is no involvement bypoli-

    ticians in the determination of

    property values, nor may they

    be involved in dealing with any

    objection to a valuation, wrote

    Neilson.

    Market value or not?

    As the Citys GVR is based en-

    tirely on the market value on

    1 August 2015, for the purposes

    of any objection to a valuation,

    the percentage change from the

    last valuation is not relevant,

    nor is the impact on the rates

    bill.

    The only consideration is

    whether it is the market value

    or not, Neilson continued.

    The rates adjustment will be

    tabled at the end ofMarch at the

    start of the public participation

    process on the Citys budget.

    Property rates based on the

    GVR for 2015 will be billed from

    1 July.

    As soon as the rate-in-the-

    rand has been tabled, property

    owners will be able to use the

    rates calculator on the website

    to determine the rates payable

    on their property as from1 July.

    Property valuations are car-

    ried out regularly to ensure that

    property owners pay a fair

    share of the total rates income

    required to operate the City,

    wrote Neilson.

    Property rates contribute to

    various municipal services

    which are for the benefit of all

    residents. This includes disas-

    ter management services,

    roads, traffic and street lights,

    and themaintenance of commu-

    nity facilities and public spaces.

    Economic pressures

    Property valuations are not

    done to chase a surplus or to

    make money out of ratepayers.

    The budget needed for munici-

    pal services is carefully calcu-

    lated and property rates con-

    tribute to the budget, he wrote.

    We are mindful that we have

    to provide top quality services

    and manage the City in a finan-

    cially sustainable and responsi-

    ble manner. We are especially

    conscious of the fact that our

    ratepayers are not immune to

    the macro economic pressures

    and uncertainties of our coun-

    try, he said.

    If a property owner disputes

    the valuation of their property,

    a well motivated objection in

    which the property owner must

    prove that themarket valuation

    is incorrect, may be submitted

    by no later than 29 April to the

    City Valuer. Objections may al-

    so be lodged via the Citys e-ser-

    vices or residents portal.

    Property owners can view the

    latest GVR for 2015 by visiting

    www.capetown.gov.za/proper-

    tyvaluations. They are also en-

    couraged to visit the Citys pub-

    lic inspection venues to view

    their property valuation and to

    engage with staff on the infor-

    mation that the City has at its

    disposal, which includes the

    sales data for a particular area.

    The public inspection venues

    in the northern suburbs are the

    conference room at the Bellville

    municipal building (next to

    Northlink College, opposite

    Sanlam), the Brackenfell coun-

    cil chambers and theminor hall

    at the Parow Civic Centre.

    The venues are open from

    08:15 to 15:45 on week days.

    MAMA LATIFAH CHANGED MY LIFE!

    I am Claire from Strand. After loosing hope i phoned

    Latifah. My life was falling apart, my marriage and

    love were a mess, my finances were bad, i didn't pay

    my accounts, car and couldn't buy food for my family.

    Money just dissapeared, was working for 30 years with

    nothing to show! People at work were jealous of me.

    Latifah helped me with my love and financial problems.

    Today i'm rich and happily in love.

    I

    t is hard to think that after only one year

    of practising karate, Robyn Petersen will

    represent her country at the Kimura Shu-

    kokai Karate World Championship in Ger-

    many come July.

    The 32-year-old karateka from the North-

    pine Samurai School of Karate in Kraaifon-

    tein is living proof that with hard work and

    dedication the sky is the limit.

    Fellow karateka at the club, Sensei Caleb

    Howard, will compete on the international

    stage for the seventh time and his experi-

    encewillmost certainly assist Robynduring

    her debut.

    When I started doing karate last year I

    immediately fell in love with the sport. I

    have really worked hard and dedicated a lot

    of time to improve myself.

    It is such an honour to know that I will

    represent my country in Germany. Having

    by my side someone like Caleb, who has the

    experience, will certainly be valuable forme

    especially now when we pick up the train-

    ing intensity, says Robyn.

    Caleb has competed in Switzerland, Portu-

    gal, USA, Turkey, Ireland and Sun City.

    Its always special to represent your

    country and it lifts your spirits to give your

    absolute best, he says. I havebeenvery im-

    pressed by Robyn, to say the least. It is not

    every day that someone gets their national

    colours in their very first year.

    We are really on track with our prepara-

    tion. Sensei Chris Ensil (7th dan) is one of

    the best in the business and he is putting us

    through gruelling workouts. The excite-

    ment and nerves will come, but for now we

    are focused on the job at hand and that is to

    be prepared to the best of our abilities, says

    Caleb.

    These two stars of the Northpine dojo are

    also giving back and sharing their expertise

    by giving classes to the next wave of up and

    coming karate stars.

    I have been teaching junior classes for

    eight years now, and love every minute of

    it. I take pride in the fact that I can help form

    the next generation of karateka, saidCaleb.

    There is however one big hurdle for these

    two karateka. They each need to raise R30

    000 in order to compete, which covers all

    their costs.

    V If any individual or company would like to support

    them financially, phone Robyn on 082 977 9090 or

    Caleb on 084 215 4047.
