Misdaadslagoffer Vincent Lyons (regs) van Lyons Projects en Construction het onderneem om sy privaat helikopter aan die St. Francisbaai­polisie virdie bevegting van misdaad teen geen koste beskikbaar te stel. Volgens lt. Johan Swanepoel gaan dit die polisie se werk vergemaklik.FOTO:MONIQUE BASSON

MISDADIGERS in St. Francisbaai enomliggende gebiede sal voortaanrede tot kommer hê as hulle die ge-

dreun van ’n helikopter in die lug hoor.

Met die hulp van ’n plaaslike inwoner, kandie St. Francisbaai-polisie van nou af misda-digers se bedrywighede op die grond vangroot hoogtes af dophou en binne sekondes ophulle toesak.

Na ’n huisroof op 14 November in St. Fran-cisbaai, waartydens twee werknemers deurinbrekers vasgebind was, het Vincent Lyonsvan Lyons Projects en Construction - óók ’nslagoffer van misdaad - onderneem om syprivaat helikopter aan die polisie teen geenkoste beskikbaar te stel.

Enkele minute na die polisie van die huis-roof in kennis gestel is, was Lyons in die lugom na die verdagtes te help soek.

Volgens lt. Johan Swanepoel, is die misda-digers nie vasgetrek nie, maar ’n waardevollevennootskap is uit die operasie gebore.

“Ons bedien die hele kusstrook vanaf dieKromrivier tot anderkant Oesterbaai en diévennootskap gaan beslis die werk van diepolisie vergemaklik,” sê Swanepoel.

“Die helikopter gaan egter nie op ’n daag-likse basis ingespan word nie, maar slegs re-aktief in die geval van ernstige misdaad waartyd ’n faktor is, gebruik word. Dit sluit inhuisroof, bankroof en motorkapings.”

“Die helikopter kan binne 10 minute na ’nvoorval aangemeld is, in die lug wees. Dit ver-beter ons kanse aansienlik om misdadigersvas te trek.”

Volgens Lyons het hy juis van Johannesburg,waar hy deur vier gewapende rowers in sy kluistoegesluit en van honderde duisende Rande sebesittings beroof is, na St. Francisbaai verhuisom in ’n veiliger omgewing te woon.

“Die beskikbaarstelling van my helilptervir die bevegting van misdaad in die gebied,is my bydrae om te help verseker dat die dorp’n veilige en rustige hawe vir inwoners bly,”sê Lyons.

Swanepoel sê: “Dit is ‘n duidelike voorbeeldvan hoe die private sektor met die veiligheids-dienste kan saamwerk teen misdaad. Die he-likopter sal hopelik misdadigers afskrik.

“In vergelyking met dieselfde tydperk ver-lede jaar, ervaar ons tans ’n daling in kontak-en eiendomverwante misdaad. Dít is slegsmoontlik deur die samewerking van die ge-meenskap.”

SEVERAL workers from WoodlandsDairy in Humansdorp embarked on aprotest action on Monday in demand ofhigher salary increases.

According to Lourens Martin, a rep-resentative at Woodlands, they are de-manding a salary increase in excess of30%.

This while Woodlands Dairy is offer-ing an increase of 7%.

“General workers are currently get-ting paid R10.10 per hour, while downstream operators receive R14.02 perhour. We demand that general workersat least get R14 per hour, and downstream operators R16 per hour,” saysMartin.

“Further grievances include deduc-tions from our salary without consult-ing with workers first, including funer-al cover, as well as the long period wehave to wait for back payments.

“We work very hard for little moneyand we feel that we as workers are be-ing treated unfairly.”

Lex Gutsche, Chairman & CEO ofWoodlands Dairy , says: “The strikingworkers are employed by the Work-force Group who supply WoodlandsDairy with outsourced labour.

“On Monday, December 2 these wor-kers embarked on an unprotectedstrike. Workforce has obtained an in-terdict to compel their employees to re-turn to work to which they have com-plied.

“Workforce Management will be en-gaging with their staff to address thisissue.”

SKAARS is die vorige skade herstel en ’n nu-we hek opgesit, of nog ’n motoriste jaag deurhaar muur.

Dit is die lot van ElamarieErasmus van Noorsekloofweg.

“Ons het skaars die muur be-hoorlik reggemaak en die hekvervang na ’n swart VWGolf op29 September daardeur geploeghet, voor nóg ’n motoris in ’nblou Ford Fiesta deur ’n anderdeel van die muur gejaag het,”sê Eramsus.

Volgens Eramsus het dievoorval omstreeks 03:15 opDinsdag plaasgevind. “Die be-stuurder het uitgespring enweggehardloop.

“Die beste van alles is dat diémotoriste van die see se kant afmet Noorsekloofweg opkom. Ekbly aan die regterkant van diestraat,maarhullekrydit regommy muur om te ry.”

Sedert die eerste ongeluk op

21 September waartydens Jan-Willem vanHeerden, die voormalige bestuurder van Pot-ter’s Place in Jeffreysbaai, oorlede is, was dieverkeersdepartement nog net een keer inNoorsekloofweg, sê Erasmus.

CRIMINALS beware, the Kouga boasts withthe best men and women in blue in the East-ern Cape.

For the second year running, the Hu-mansdorp Police Cluster was named the BestCluster in the province, while the PatensiePolice Station raked in the Best Station of theYear award for small stations.Police members of Joubertina and Hankey

were named as finalists in the “Star of theYear” and “Best Detective Team of the Year”categories.These awards were bestowed on the vari-

ous police stations in the Eastern Cape dur-ing the annual ServiceExcellenceAwards for2012/ 2013, acknowledging the work of offi-cers who had gone above and beyond the callof duty to serve their community in the pre-ceding year.According to Humansdorp Cluster Com-

mander, Brigadier Neil Jantjies, theseachievements were earned through dedica-tion, teamwork, discipline, proper planningand the assistance of community members.“The combination of teamwork between

police members, members of the communityand local businesses, is the key to our suc-cess. Without them, we would not be able tooperate so effectively and successfully. Wefollow up each case reported and every leadreceived, to ensure safer towns for residentsand tourists alike.”Arends contributes the success of the Pat-

ensie Police Station to effective teamwork.

“We have the interest of our community atheart, and with their help we experienced ahuge decrease in criminal activities over thelast year.“It is furthermore important to keep the

morale of members high. By achieving this,they deliver a better service to the communi-ty and in turn residents freely communicatevital information to us,” says Arends. “Wehave a highly positive team who strives toserve their community to the best of theirabilities. The excellent leadership from ourcluster commander, Jantjies, also contrib-utes towards our success.”Data typistMagdalene van derMerwe from

Hankey Detective Branch, was in the run-ning for the “Detective Team of the Year”award.“Althoughwe only have half of the necessarypersonnel, our team is positive and highlymotivated to pursue success. They workmany hourswithout any compensation to en-sure that all cases are followed up successful-ly and to ensure client satisfaction,” saysEngelbrecht.

HULLE byt my hier, hulle byt my daar, hullebyt my sommer deurmekaar . . . Maar die“vlooi-minator” is op die saak.

Twee bolletjies wol en ’n swetterjoel vlooieis nie enige superheld se idee van ’n goeiedaad nie, maar die hond Monty - aka die“vlooi-minator” - staan nie een poot terug virdie krapperige uitdaging nie. Nie eers vlooi-poeier kan so vinnig soos hy met dié onge-wenste “boosdoeners” klaarspeel nie.

So, wanneer die vlooie begin pla, is daarnet een plek om te kla: Monty. Dit is sy

selfopgelegde taak om sy huismaats, tweeses-week-oue katjies, se vlooie te vang.

Volgens die twee-jarige Monty se eienaar,Fienie Olsen van Wonderboomstraat inWavecrest, hoef sy net te sê “soek”, dan trekMonty die naaste katjie nader en begin teknibbel en te knaag. “Hy het net eendag be-gin om ons katte se vlooie te vang,” sê Olsen.

“Die katjies geniet elke oomblik hiervanen gaan al van hulle drie drie oud is na Mon-ty. Hulle draai sommer so skuins dat hybeter by die vlooie kan uitkom.”

THE Kouga Municipality has appealed tomedical doctors to stop issuing sick certifi-cates without just cause.

Kouga Municipal Manager Sidney Fadisaid the abuse of sick leave was rife with boththe municipality and private sector in the re-gion.“The majority of doctors in Kouga are ethi-

cal and professional practitioners who refuseto bend the rules andwill not issue sick certif-icates if there isn’t a genuine medical reasonwhy an employee cannot report for duty. Asa municipality, we appreciate the fine workthey do.“There are, however, a few doctors who is-

sue sick certificates without just cause.“The modus operandi is that employees

make use of various doctors’ services andeach time they have a different complaint forwhich they are booked off. If a patient is care-fully examined, the doctor should detectwhether the person is genuinely sick or not.“This fraudulent practice must be stopped.

It damages both local government and private

institutions’ ability to deliver services and isharmful to the economy as a whole,” he cau-tioned.Fadi said the municipality had already iden-

tified doctors suspected of issuing sick certifi-cates without just cause and written to them towarn them that the municipality will be ques-tioning their diagnoses where it is suspectedthat employees are abusing their sick leave.“If an employee hands in a sick certificate

from one of these doctors, the employee willbe referred to another doctor for a secondopinion. If the second opinion indicates thatthere is no medical reason for the employeeto be booked off sick, wewill report the doctorwho issued the sick certificate to the HealthProfessions Council for investigation,” hesaid.He said employees would be marked “ab-

ever be advised not to make use of a doctorof their choice, but those doctors who are sus-pected of issuing fraudulent sick notes willnot have their sick notes accepted.”

THE ANC and theDA shared thespoils in the heatedby-elections thattook place in theKouga on Wednes-day 27 - with eachparty winning oneof the highlycontested wards.

The DA hoped toclinch both wards,which would enablethem to overthrowthe ANC and takecontrol of theKouga Municipali-ty. However, theANC retains theCouncil by a slimone seat.ANC candidate

Xolisile Persentdefeated his DArival, Otto Wil-liams, by 432 votesand became thelatest councillor ofWard 9 in Hankey.In Ward 9 where

5 302 voters wereeligible to vote,3 664 votes werecast (69.11%). Ofthese 38 werespoilt.The DA’s Des-

mond Pietersensecured 1 001 andscooped up Ward 5in Humansdorpfrom executivemayor Booi Koeratwho managed toobtain 732 votes.The total number

of eligible voters inWard 5 was 3 111. Atotal of 1 744 votes(56.06%) were cast.Out of these 11were spoilt ballots.According to

municipal electoralofficer Sidney Fadi,voter turn-out inWard 5 decreasedby 2.6% from58.66% in 2011,while the voterturn-out in Ward 9remained fairlystable.“However, we are

concerned aboutthe number ofpeople who werenot registered, buttried to vote on theday, as well as themany young people- though visiblyactive in campaign-ing - who were notregistered.”Despite losing

Ward 9, the DA ispositive that theyare on track to dowell in the 2014elections.

Notice isherebygiven thatbetween fourandsixaerial applicationsof Fruit FlyBait,GF-120(RegNo.L7331,Act 36of 1947),

will take place between November 2013 and March 2014 in the Elgin/Grabouw/Villiersdorp/Vyeboom, Hex River Valley, Ceres,Langkloof, Orange River and Franschhoek/Simondium production areas. These applications are part of the Deciduous FruitIndustry's area wide action regarding the control of fruit flies in the above mentioned areas.BACKGROUND INFORMATIONFruit flies are a phytosanitary pest and cost producers millions of rands every year. All available methods for control measuresare presently being used to fight this pest. Production areas close to residential areas are being hit the hardest by fruit fliesbecause of insufficient control measures in these areas.The control measures that are being used at present may include the following:

1. Monitoring of fruit fly numbers with traps containing either a pheromone or a controlled release vapour attractantsystem.

2. Sanitation in orchards and vineyards where fruit flies can hatch, hide or find shelter and food to live on.3. Regularly applying fruit fly bait in orchards and vineyards.4. Releasing sterile males on a weekly basis.

GF-120 Fruit Fly Bait is registered for both ground and aerial applications in SouthAfrica and other countries. All the ingredientsare natural and GF-120 is used internationally as a very low risk product, which is certified organic by OMRI.The main ingredients in GF-120 include the following:Plant protein and sugar formulation, with spinosad as the active ingredient. Spinosad is obtained from a fermenting process ofSaccharopolyspora spinosa which is a natural ground organism.When this product is used according to the recommendation, only 0.24g of the active ingredient will be spread over a hectare inscattered drops. If applied as prescribed, there will be minimal risk for animals, human health, birds and any other organisms inthe environment, as it will only attract and kill fruit flies.MORE FEATURES:Colour – light brown to brownModerately stickyNot corrosive or irritatingSoluble in water and washes off easilyNot prone to staining.Despite above mentioned features of GF120, residents are requested to adhere to the following:

1. All children should be indoors at time of application.2. Seek shelter at time of application.3. Do not hang out any washing during this period.4. Where possible, vehicles should be under roof (if any drops fall on a vehicle one can easily wash it off with water

without leaving any stains).

PLEASE TAKE NOTICE THATTHE TARGETAREAFORAERIALBAITING IS NOTTOWNAREAS.For more information contact Nando Baard at 021 882 9541 or nando@fruitfly.co.za

HOOG in die lug, laag in sterk senuwees.Maar, ek wou mos.

Die betowerende gevoel om soos ’n voëldeur die lug te sweef, ismoeilik om te beskryf.’n Mens moet dit eerder self beleef - dit is ’nervaring wat jy nooit in jou lewe sal vergeetnie. Ek het dié voorreg gehad toe WalkaboutAdventures Maandag die streek se eerste enenigste glykabel (zip line) by die beroemde“waterval” net buitekant Jeffreysbaai vanstapel gestuur het. Dié glykabel is selfs hoëras die een in Tsitsikamma.Met al my vrouemoed in ’n klein bondel-

tjieymekaargeskraap, is dit net ek, die harnasen die “lewenslyn” aan die glykabel. Veronder my kabbel die water rustig oor dieklippe, omring deur lowergroen bome - maarek kan nie vir te lank afkyk nie, my senuweeskan ook net soveel verduur.My hart klink doef-doef-doef in my ore op,

elke spier span styf . . . en ek spring vir diegly . . . A-klas-adrenalien wat nie maklik geë-wenaar kan word nie. Te vinnig wys die gidsaandie anderkant virmyomremaan te slaan.Vir ’n sekonde wonder ek of dit regtig nodigis, maar toe ek sien die rotswand kom met ’nspoed opmyafgepeil, besef ek dit salwysweesom na hom te luister.Ek kan nie wag om van die volgende plat-

form te spring en die wind verby my ore tehoor suis nie.Die adrenalien-pompende rit duur net so-

wat 30 minute, maar agterna voel ’n menssommer jare jonger. Jou knieë is lam, jou hartbons in jou keel en die bloed galop deur jou

are soos ’n span wilde perde. Maar die bestevan alles is dat jy al dié aksie kan beleefsonder om vir ’n oomblik bang of onveilig tevoel.Die hoogs opgeleide gidse gespe jou stewig in

jou harnas vas, voordat dit aan die dik staal-kabels tussen die verskillende platforms ge-koppel word. Al wat jy hoef te doen, is om telaat los en elke oomblik van die asemrowenderit tot by die volgende platform te geniet.Volgens mede-eienaar Eugene Jonker, wat

meer as 10 jaar ondervinding van uitersteavonture het, voldoen alle toerusting wat ge-bruik word aan streng regulatoriese stan-daarde. “Die glykabel sal gereeld geïnspek-teerword om seker temaak dat dit deurentydin ’n goeie toestand is.“Dié glykabels is ’n drie-jaar lange droom

wat waar geword het.”Volgens Jonker troon die hoogste glykabel

40m bo die grond en span die langste kabel400m.“Die kabels is ontwerp om ’n gewig van tot

900kg te dra. Dit beteken, selfs ’n redelikegroot olifant sal op ons kabels veilig wees,”sê Jonker.Daar is tans vier glykables en nog twee

word vir die nuwe jaar beplan.Sal ek dit weer doen? Beslis. Die tweede

keer sal ek probeer om my oë minder styf toete knyp enmeer van die natuurskoon rondommy inneem.Volgens Jonker is die toer nie aan die weer

gebonde nie - of die son nou skyn, die windstormsterk waai en of dit stortreën. “As onsdieweerstoestande té gevaarlik ag, sal die ak-sie vir daardie spesifieke tydperk gestopword.”

As jy uitgedaag voel om hoogte en spoed tetrotseer en oorwin, weet jy nou wat om metjou ekstra adrenalien te doen.Groot aksie-belaaide planne word vir vroeg

volgende jaar beplan.
