THE Chamber of Mines has voiced its strong opposition to Eskom's R22 billion Regulatory Clearing Account (RCA) application to the National Electricity Regulator of SA (Nersa) in respect of 2013/14.This application is over and above the 8% tariff increase Eskom was granted for that year as part of the third multi-year price determination. The Chamber of Mines represents more than 90% of South Africa's mining industry by sales value.Chamber of Mines CEO Roger Baxter notes that: “The mining industry supports Eskom's intent to resolve South Africa's long-term energy crisis. We also made clear that we have no objection to the recovery of unforeseen costs arising from circumstances that Eskom cannot control.”But, Eskom's R11.7 billion lower-than-planned-for-revenue was caused, by its own admission, by Eskom's own failure to manage its projects and operations efficiently.Another approximately R8 billion in recovery is due to unbudgeted for spending on generating diesel power to make up for normal supply shortfalls. Baxter adds: “The Chamber does not support the recovery of costs and lost revenues that could have been avoided by the utility's better management.Given that many operations are currently operating at a loss or at a very marginal profit, the Chamber estimates that Eskom's proposed electricity tariff increase of 16.6% would jeopardise an additional 20 000 of the 119 000 jobs remaining in the gold sector, and another 20 000 of the 189 000 jobs in the platinum sector.Investor concern is already reflected in the fact that the mining industry's to foreign direct investment (FDI) fell to 14% in 2013, down from 25% in 2010.In conclusion, Baxter notes: “Since 2008 there has been a 300% increase in the electricity tariff. As a result of intensive energy management and efficiency projects, some Chamber members have managed to contain their overall costs of electricity to 200%. However, there is little remaining scope for further effective energy efficiency exercises.“A more-stable electricity pricing environment is critical to ensuring some form of investment takes place in the future.” www.miningweekly.co.za

By May the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) plans to gazette the final version of the draft Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment Regulations.The regulations are supposed to flesh out the provisions of the BEE Amendment Act of 2013, which came into force in 2014. However, in some respects they go further and are thus ultra vires the BEE Amendment Act. Worse still, they will expose business to ever more bureaucratic demands while increasing uncertainty about BEE requirements.For example, the BEE Amendment Act gives a new BEE

Commission the capacity to ‘maintain a registry of major broad-based BEE transactions’ above a value specified by the minister. According to the regulations, the Commission will also be allowed to ‘assess’ a transaction ‘at any time’ so as to ‘determine its adherence’ to BEE rules. It will further be empowered to demand that ‘steps be taken to remedy the transaction within a reasonable period’.These provisions will allow the Commission, for example, to re-open an ownership deal that was concluded several years ago and is now under water – and demand that it be ‘remedied’ to its satisfaction. This is not only ultra vires but extraordinarily intrusive and economically damaging.Still more damaging is a provision saying that organs of state, in ‘determining the qualification criteria’ for the issuing of licences, the implementation of procurement policy, and the granting of incentives ‘must give more consideration to companies that are at least 51% black-owned’.These provisions will apply to virtually all companies, both large and small. Moreover, if the DTI revives and enacts the Licensing of Businesses Bill of 2013, they will apply to every enterprise without exception, including the small and medium enterprises most needed to generate more jobs. The revised generic codes, with their more onerous BEE ownership obligations, came in roughly a year ago. Now companies will be under significant pressure to raise BEE ownership from 25% to 51%. DR. Anthea Jeffery is Head of Policy Research at the IRR and author of Patents and Prosperity: Invention + Investment = Growth + Jobs, published by the IRR and available on the IRR website.

ANDOWNERSHIP comes with a responsibility. Every landowner will be held accountable / responsible for any L

fire starting on his property.The law will protect you only if you have fire breaks. If you do not have fire breaks you are guilty of an offence, plus any damages caused by the fire regardless of who started the fire. There are 3 basic rules; 1. Every landowner must make firebreaks around his property 2. Every landowner should join his local fire association to plan and coordinate the making of firebreaks with his neighbours 3. You should insure that your public liability insurance policy includes the spread of wildfire. Your insurance policy will only cover you if you have firebreaks in place.This is a very short summary of the rules and regulations regarding wildfires. For further info go to www.pafpa.org Making of fire breaks commenced on 1 May 2016 and continues until 31 July 2016. From 1 August 2016 until 31 October 2016 you may not burn at all, under any circumstances. This is not just for firebreaks, no open fires, burning of garden rubbish etc is allowed due to the very high fire danger and spread of wildfire during these months. People burning anything during this time face spot fines and prosecution. The law will be

enforced. To make firebreaks during the allowed months you will need a permit. Once you have a permit you will still need to check first if you may burn on a specific day or not. The days overall wind speed and direction, temperature and fire risk etc is taken into account before you are given the go ahead to burn on a certain day.

If permission is denied you may not burn and will have to re-schedule and re-check before you commence burning fire breaks. PAFPA covers west of Lydenburg: for further information contact Rex Baragwanath on 082 432 6193.LEFPA is east of Lydenburg so please make sure which area you fall under when you buy a permit for making fire breaks. You can contact LEFPA Nelspruit on tel: 013 752 6419 for permits.

SAMANCOR Chrome, the South African chrome mining company and ferrochrome producer last week issued a Section 189 notice to all the recognised unions representing staff across all operations and corporate office.According to a company announcement which the company issued, this action is in spite of the implementation of several measures at all the business units of the organisation over the past months.The severe drop in chrome ore prices, resulting in a decrease of the ferrochrome market price, has forced the company to take this action it says.The Section 189 will start the consultation process between the company and the unions. All options

will be explored to mitigate the current situation. These are challenging times for the chrome ore and ferrochrome industry and for all its stakeholders.Samancor's chrome mines are located on the eastern and western Limb of the Bushveld Complex – Eastern Chrome Mines and Western Chrome Mines. It also operates three ferrochrome smelters. The company has traditionally been one of the largest integrated ferrochrome producers in the world.This latest announcement sees another South African company reveal the drastic measures it has to take in order to face the current commodity crisis as cost to produce outweighs product cost.www.miningreview.co.za

ORAL waar mens in die dorp ry, sien jy winkelgeboue leeg staan, met toe deure.Dit is ’n onrusbarende verskynsel en word sommer gou afgemaak met die standaard antwoord “Dit is die ekonomie se skuld”.Sekerlik is dit so, maar die verskynsel noop mens om bietjie navorsing te doen. Diskrete navrae bring interessante feite na vore. Ek weet van ’n besigheid in Steelpoort wat na Lydenburg verskuif het, skynbaar as gevolg van eletrisiteitstariewe. Sekere gebruikers in Steelpoort betaal klaarblyklik tot R3.00 per eenheid krag, terwyl dit hier aansienlik goedkoper is. Maak sin. Die ander groot klagte onder besighede in Lydenburg wat hulle deure sluit is die koste van vloerspasie. Toe dit goed gegaan het met die ekonomie is verskeie nuwe besigheidspersele (komplekse) ontwikkel met ’n bepaalde afbetalings-model en is die koste per vierkante meter bepaal.Nou dat die ekonomie swakker is, is daar minder voete (kliënte), krag en tariewe is

duurder en die lewensvatbaarheid van die besigheid kom in gedrang. In baie gevalle wil die gebou eienaars egter niks hoor van ’n afwaartse aanpassing in huurgeld nie en die besigheid (huurder) sluit sy deure. Die e iendomsmark s i en d i t me t verhurings van huise en woonstelle. Waar ’n eienaar ’n paar jaar terug R10

500 vir sy huis ontvang het, kan hy nou net R 7 000 per maand daarvoor kry. Die vraag nou is, hoe kan daardie gebou eienaar sy kapitale koste delg as hy nie huurders vir sy perseel kry nie? Het hierdie ouens ’n slim plan om dit af te skryf, eerder as om ’n verminderde huur te beding? Is dit gierigheid? Wat ookal die antwoord is, die effek is dat dit die plaaslike ekonomie erg seermaak en baie mense se inkomste (lewe) verwoes.Geld is god en baie van ons is nie bereid om aanpassings in ons leefwyses te maak nie. Ek kan boeke vol skryf oor die etiese- en moraliteitsaspekte hiervan, maar sal volstaan deur ’n beroep op almal te doen om die ekonomie aan die lewe te hou deur aanpassings en planne te maak. Koop plaaslik en verlaag jou huurgeld is maar twee daarvan.

Spreuke 3:27: Moenie ’n weldaad weerhou van iemand aan wie dit toekom, terwyl dit in jou mag is om dit te bewys nie.Ons Vader gee dat ons met empatie na ons medemense sal omsien - Amen.

Dopper Gholfdag was groot suksesNed. Gereformeerde Kerk Lydenburg skryf: Almal het hartlik saam gekuier en gholf gespeel by die Dopper Gholfdag op 23 April. Danksy mildelike bydrae van borge en geesdriftige gholfspelers was die dag waarlik ’n groot sukses! Baie dankie aan ons borg: Lydenburg Brake & Clutch, EC Blaauw Transport, Precrete, Alunite, Kameelperd Laagte Lodge, Minopex, Westvaal Lydenburg, Sterkspruit Plaveisel, Otees Cash & Carry, Sterkspruit Projekte, Nomakanjani, Highlands Panorama NUUS, Kruger Konstruksie, Lydenburg Toyota, BMG - Lydenburg, Badfontein Wildsplaas, Sybrand de Fortier, Postnet en Lydenburg Konstruksie wat ook elk ’n bydrae gelewer het. Die dag is gewen deur Cornel Haman / Wendy du Preez, tweede was Johan Bezuidenhout / Louwrens Volschenk, derde Frans Grobler / Frikkie Fletcher, vierde Ben Smith / Fanie Archer en vyfde Schalk Grobler / Werner Britz.

Dis onrusbarend hoe die publieke opinie oor post-apartheid verander het (van die meerderheid landsmaters). Ek hoor met die Vryheidsdagviering baie sprekers van die regering en hul steungroepe sê ons moet “nou begin veg vir Vryheid.” maar soos goeie ‘Europiërs / boere’ het ons tog relatief die land sonder ’n Burgeroorlog ‘weggegee’. Maar dit was blykbaar nie goed genoeg nie. Nee dit was ‘te min’.Nog iets wat nie goed is nie, is die Gupta’s se vertrek. My eie niggie werk by een van hul maatskappye. Dit het ’n verreikende impak dat hulle die land se geldsake so te sê beheer het en weg is. Iets anders wat nie goed is nie is Suid-Afrikaanse sangers wat in die Huisgenoot kla oor die geld. Die Afrikaanse spreekwoord sê: As dit pap reën moet jy skep. En ek kan jou nou sê die meeste het musiek gekies toe dit pap gereën het. Nou is die mark oorvol. Die wat regtig talentvol en gewild is moet nou meeding met... uhm.... die res. Iets anders wat nie goed is nie is die nuwe Springbok rugbyafrigter. Nog iets is die herstel van slaggate in Lydenburg. Jou kop draai sommer soos jy al die nuus, internetberigte, tydskrifte, eposse ens. se inligting moet verwerk. En dan skryf ek ook nog weekliks oor die dorp se dinge.Geen wonder iemand loop my storm in die winkel met: “Is jy ok... wat is verkeerd?”Antwoord: “Nee ek dink net!” ~ Deur Michelle Boshoff

REVEALED at the 2016 Beijing motor show and following in the footsteps of the 718 Boxster, Porsche has now revealed the 718 Cayman, and yes, it is four-cylinders only.As in the Boxster, Porsche is ditching its much-loved flat-six engines for a turbocharged four-cylinder boxer unit, so it’ll sound and go a bit like a Subaru Impreza, but due to its cosmetic overhaul, lux interior and spades of standard kit, it certainly won’t be like one to live with on a daily basis.As the new Boxster did, the Cayman’s received a substantial cosmetic overhaul. You’ll spot the sharper nose, bigger air intakes and tweaked headlight clusters. Porsche has also worked to make the Cayman’s tail look a lot wider, and has fitted new lights to suit and a fairly blatant ‘Porsche’ badge. There are similar carryovers on the inside from the Boxster, including new air vents, a 918 Spyder-inspired steering wheel and Porsche’s latest media system.Don’t bemoan the loss of six cylinders completely. Par for the course when downsized engines come onto the scene, the new 718 Cayman is quicker, faster and more efficient than its predecessor. The lineup starts with a turbocharged 2.0-litre flat-four that produces 220kW and 380Nm (an increase of 25kW and 100Nm versus the old naturally aspirated six).Moving up a notch, there is the more potent 718 Cayman S featuring a larger 2.5-litre turbocharged four, with a variable-geometry turbocharger. This one punches out 258kW and 420Nm (up 25kW and 60Nm compared with the old Cayman S). These translate into significant performance gains. A six-speed manual is standard-fit

throughout the range but equipped with the seven-speed PDK and the optional Sport Chrono Pack, the regular Cayman will sprint from 0-100kph in 4.7sec. That’s 0.7sec faster than the outgoing model.The 718 Cayman S will complete the benchmark sprint in 4.2sec. It’s consequently some 0.5sec quicker than the outgoing Cayman S. Both are a few digits faster at the top end, too, knocking on the door of 275kph and 285kph respectively.More powerful yet more efficient and cleaner across the board: for example, the manual 718 Cayman is claimed to average 7.4l/100km and emit 168g/km of CO2

(versus 8.4l/100km and 195g/km of CO2).That’s all the engine gubbins dealt with, but what about the rest of the car? Well, there have been a whole host of chassis tweaks, including firmer springs, stiffer anti-roll bars and retuned dampers. Steering is also ‘10% more direct’, while the rear wheels are half an inch wider. This allows for fitment of a wider tyre, boosting traction and grip with the extra torque on board.Options include an electronically controlled limited-slip differential and Porsche’s electronically adjustable suspension. This also cuts 10mm out of the ride height, while those looking for the most rambunctious experience can opt for PASM sport – which drops the ride height 20mm. Stopping power comes courtesy of bigger discs – and callipers from the 911 on the 718 Cayman S.Local prices or release details are not available yet but overseas prices are on a par

w i t h c u r r e n t C a y m a n s . Therefore, given the performance and equ ipment u p g r a d e s , y o u could argue that t h e n e w 7 1 8 Cayman is better value for money.topcar.co.za

THEY’re only sketches for now but Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles clearly wants to breathe new life into its pickup truck offering and steal some thunder from the Toyota Hilux and Ford Ranger bakkie battle that’s currently raging. Odd to think but the Amarok is already six years old, so previewing a facelifted Amarok with these several stylish sketches is probably par for the course.With a length of 5.25m and a width of 2.23m, the bakkie’s dimensions are to stay the same but

the look of the sketches definitely suggests VW wants a more premium look and feel to the next Amarok – in a bid to attract more high-end buyers and those who might’ve shopped in the SUV segment before. Gauging the sketches, there is a fresh front fascia with slimmer headlamps, a more robust bumper featuring silver accents and a pronounced skid plate. Rather more obvious are the fog lamps now better integrated upfront. Around the rear, new LED taillights get a more modern look. Bigger wheel and tyre packages will no doubt be in the mix, too, to fill beefier wheel arches.

Turning our attention to the inside, round contours are swapped for more horizontal and vertical lines in the new dash layout. Repositioned air-con vents and touchscreen infotainment display are in much closer proximity to one another. The overall outcome seems to be of a more car-like interior.No further details on what will be happening under the bonnet, but the likelihood is of an updated 2.0-litre TDI (both single and biturbo) with more power and torque than before – and not the larger engine most critics have been calling for – mated to a six-speed manual or eight-speed automatic with 4Motion all-wheel drive system.

Images of the u p d a t e d V o l k s w a g e n Amarok have been captured u n d e r g o i n g t e s t i n g i n Europe, and it could go on sale in SA as soon as late 2016. Just in before Renault, Fiat, Mercedes andPeugeot/Citroen (and possibly H y u n d a i ) introduce their respective D/C bakkie models.topcar.co.za
