ROY JANKIELSOHN, leader of the DA inthe Free State, laments the rising unem-ployment in the province.

His grave concern stems from a surveyby Statistics South Africa revealing anegative picture of a general household inthe Free State.

Jankielsohn raised his concerns recentlyduring the Free State Government Depart-ments’ budget vote debate in the FreeState Provincial Legislature in Bloemfon-tein.

The survey revealed that youth unem-ployment in the Free State was currentlyat 48,2%, the highest in the country.

“The survey revealed that out of apopulation of 2,7 million people, only514 000 cited salaries as a main source ofincome, while 477 000 cited social grants asthe only source of income.

“This means that roughly only 59,6% ofFree State households are salaried, while55,2% are either completely dependent onsocial assistance or depend on grants tosupplement income,” he said.

The current unemployment rate is at40% (expanded definition).

“This means that out of a total possibleworkforce population of 1,25 million,496 000 people are unable to find jobs. TheDA has a vision for a prosperous FreeState. A Free State in which every personhas an opportunity to reach his or herpotential, depending on their own personalefforts to do so. This administration mustadopt a ‘Free State First’ policy within theprocurement process.

“Local small businesses will benefit fromthis and it will create employment. Weneed to embrace entrepreneurs, assistwhere we can and allow small businessesto flourish,” said Jankielsohn.

He challenged local municipalities toplay their role in turning around theprovince’s socioeconomic situation.

“Municipalities have a role to play incontributing to economic development.

“The Free State requires municipalitiesthat provide basic services and understandlocal economic development, we need toimprove our roads infrastructure, we needto provide a safe and secure environmentand we need to provide skills for ourlabour force. An economic environmentthat levels the playing field of opportuni-ties and encourages and sustains invest-ment. This is not beyond the potential ofthe province. The DA’s vision of an openopportunity society for all encapsulatesthis.”

Jankielsohn emphasised the provincehad the potential to improve its sorry stateof affairs, further challenging the rulingparty to practise what it preached regard-ing job creation.

“We simply need to implement theNational Development Plan. The DA willsupport any positive initiatives to improvethe economy of our province. The FreeState has the potential to turn around ourailing economy and prove to the rest ofthe country that we are a winning prov-ince,” said Jankielsohn.

Leona Kleynhans, DA member of theprovincial legislature, pointed out that theagricultural sector in the Free State wasin drastic decline.

“This sector has shed more than 39 000jobs over the last ten years. The agricul-tural sector contributes 3,9% towards theprovincial economy and it provides 19,2%of formal and 58,9% of informal employ-ment opportunities in the Free State.

“This important industry faces seriouschallenges, with little or no support fromgovernment.

“A lack of support to emerging farmers,a failure to ensure the safety and securityof our rural communities and a totaldisregard for the crucial economic impor-tance of agriculture create an environmentof instability, a hotbed for criminalactivity, continuous economic decline andalso threaten food security.”

FIVE officials of the Pelonomi RegionalHospital in Bloemfontein have been put onspecial leave after Premier Ace Magashulefound medical equipment and consumableslocked in a transit store at the hospital.Estimated to be worth millions the

consumables and equipment were discoveredby Magashule on 18 July during a clean-upoperation which coincided with InternationalNelson Mandela Day. Some of the consuma-bles included new heart monitors, uniforms,syringes and toilet paper.David Motau, the head of the Free State

Department of Health, announced thesuspension of the five officials last Thursdayduring a media briefing held at BopheloHouse in Bloemfontein.Dr Benny Malakoane, the MEC for Health,

neither denied nor confirmed whether thechief executive officer of the hospital,Marcus Molokomme, was one of the officials.Sam Mashinini, the MEC for Public Works,

said an investigation had been launchedafter the items had been found.This comes in the wake of the National

Treasury transferring financial managementauthority of the Free State Department ofHealth to the Provincial Treasury. Thisfollowed the revelation that the trouble-rid-den department had racked up R700 millionin debt and was on the verge of collapse.Mashinini said there was the possibility of

putting more officials on special leavepending an investigation. According to him,the special leave had been imposed to ensurethat implicated officials did not interferewith the investigation. Malakoane said theinvestigation would not be restricted to thePelonomi Hospital but would also probeother health facilities in the province.

“We apologise to the people of the FreeState for what they had to go through whilethe necessary consumables were unavaila-ble,” said Msebenzi Zwane, the MEC forEconomic Development, Tourism andEnvironmental Affairs and acting Free Statepremier. The shortage of medical consuma-bles at Free State health facilities has been ahuge problem for the beleaguered Malakoaneand has since caused a public outcry.Malakoane has been under extreme

pressure with non-government entities andopposition parties pointing fingers at himand calling for his axing from the influentialposition of MEC.

QWAQWA. – In an endeavour to uplift theeconomy of the rural areas of the Maluti-a-Phofung Local Municipality throughAfrican Rainbow Minerals, a subsistencefarming initiative, one of South Africa’smulti-millionaires, Patrice Motsepe, hasrecently donated three tractors to thecommunity of Makgolokoeng, Batlokoa andBakoena.

These tractors were handed over to thevillage chiefs with the believe that they arethe ones who will take care of and use thetractors.

However, Director Matlala, the transfor-mation executive leader at African RainbowMinerals, has pointed out that the tractorswere for the community and they would belent to them on request.

Matlala said they were trying to encour-age people in the rural areas to use theland to plant so that they could have food.

“We want them to use the land sustaina-bly. We want them to make the land theyare living on rich with mealies, cabbage,potatoes and many others crops,” he said.

He said it was not the first time they hadvisited Qwaqwa to donate tractors.

“We just added some to the ones we havedonated before,” he said.

“Our understanding was that the firsttractors have already been used but we arestill looking at ways to improve theireffectiveness.”

Morobinyana Letshela, a representativefrom Batlokoa, said they would like tothank the management of African RainbowMinerals for what they had done for thecommunity.

He said they had nothing to thank thecompany with but they would make surethat they encouraged the community to usethe tractors to make the companies comethrough.

“It is the first time that we get a bigdonation like this and we pray for divineintervention so that they would be used inharmony by the community.

“We know that when things like these

are presented to the people, some comewith their own agendas and we don’t wantthat,” he said.

Letshela said most of their people had

lost interest in planting crops because ofthose who stole from them.

“Some of our people have stoppedplanting because they could not harvest as

criminals ‘harvested’ their crops.“However, some of us still have big

gardens and we will encourage them to usethe tractors,” he said.

Tractors put farmers on right track

Nominate Free State’s young sports stars

THE management of the Qwaqwa-based football outfit Maluti FurtherEducation and Training (FET)College is in the process of beefingup the squad for the 2014-’15 term.

As one of only two clubs, includ-ing African Warriors, in the FreeState’s campaign in the NationalFirst Division (NFD), Malutisurvived relegation in their maidenseason of 2013-’14, finishing in thebottom half of the 16-team competi-tion.

The club’s effort to strengthenitself for the new season has seen itenlist Thato Haraba, ThulaniMaseko, Tshepo Tomanyane andSimphiwe Mafene.

The players have great experiencebetween them and Morena Ramore-bodi, Maluti’s coach, hopes theywill make a big difference in hiseffort to transform the team into aformidable side.

Mafene captained the North-WestUniversity in the UniversitiesFootball Competition last year.

Journeyman Tomanyane had astint with clubs like BloemfonteinYoung Tigers, Jomo Cosmos, ChippaUnited and defunct Karara Kicks.

The newly-recruited players willgive the club’s coach more optionsin the attacking department.

To balance the squad, the team isalso on the hunt for competitivedefenders.

The team’s defence appeared notso solid last season, and theyconceded a lot of goals that saw theclub descending from the top half ofthe log after a good start.

Maluti conceded 59 goals andscored 44. It was one of the sixteams that scored the highestnumber last season.

Their downfall was their poordefence which compelled theircoach to recruit quality players totighten the backline in the forth-coming season.

Coach aims to strengthen team
