An empty plot in District Six has become home to a handful of informal shacks. But the settlement is rubbing salt in the wounds of beneficiaries who have been waiting years to return home, says District Six Working Committee chairperson Shahied Ajam. “It shows how everyone is ignoring re- dress,” he says. “What impression does it create when the land earmarked for restitution is not even being safeguarded?” The ease at which informal settlements can spring up on the land has been highlight- ed by various threats of occupation by com- munity organisations, Ajam says. However, resident Melissa Morris says she has been living on the land for several years and is aware that it has been ear- marked for claimants. “They can’t go against their word. If they give the land to claimants we’ll have to find another place to sleep. But we don’t disturb the neighbours and they don’t bother us,” she says. Regional Land Claims commissioner Michael Worsnip says securing the site falls to the City of Cape Town. “The City is the present owner of the land and is responsible to keep it clear of informal dwellers and invaders on the land. The Dis- trict Six Community Forum was constituted to look after the safety and security of the returnees in the area and is made up of peo- ple currently living in District Six,” he says. The District Six Reference Group oversees the orderly integration of District Six benefi- ciaries through its social integration team, Worsnip says. Richard Bosman, executive director for safety and security, says the City’s law en- forcement teams conduct regular patrols in the area. These efforts are supplemented by patrols by the local neighbourhood watch, Worsnip says. However, Ajam is calling for the Land Claims Commission to step in and secure property intended for claimants. “The government wants the world to be- lieve District Six is sacred ground, but it’s not looking after District Six. At this rate, there will be nothing left for claimants,” he says. Local celebrations for World Belly Dance Day was held on 9 May at Gardens Commercial High School.

Over 800 people braved cold and wet weather in the city centre on Saturday to marchagainst the incorrect use of genetically modified organisms. PHOTOS: NICKY NEWMAN

Locals protestGMO foodCapetonians have taken to the street to de-mand correct labelling of genetically modi-fied foods.

As part of an international protest, themarch tookplace in the city centre onSatur-day.

Protesters claim that authorities havegiven into a handful of biotechnology com-panies by failing to require testing and la-belling of genetically engineered foods.

The march is a pro-organic, anti-trans-genic genetically modified organisms(GMO) campaign being held on six conti-nents and in over 500 cities worldwide.

GMOs are organisms whose genetic mate-rial have been artificially manipulated in alab through genetic engineering, says eventorganiser Jeannie Ross.

“GMOs are engineered to withstand di-rect application of herbicide and/or to pro-

duce an insecticide,” she says.Concerned citizens aim to spread aware-

ness about the possible harmful effects ofgenetically modified food, to demand theright to natural medicines and to supportlocal small and organic farmers.

The march was part of apro-organic, anti-transgenicgenetically modified orga-nisms (GMO) campaign beingheld on six continents and inover 500 cities worldwide

Marchers demanded thecorrect labelling of GMOs infood.

The protesters were joined bytraditional healers, speakingout against the suppressionof their right to use naturalmedicines.

A public participation process is underwayto find an alternative use for the StrandStreet quarry.

The quarry, which has been linked tocrime, vagrancy and littering, was to be de-veloped by the City of Cape Town as a 2010legacy project. But the developmentwas puton hold last year after funding dried up(“Plan grinds to a halt”, People’s Post, 23September 2014).

Funding was set aside in February 2013and tenderdocumentationwas submitted tothe council’s supply chain management de-partment two months later.

But by June 2013, when the consultantteam was due to be appointed, there was nomore budget for it.

According to a report submitted to themayor two years ago, the funds were allchannelled to the Cape Town Stadium, eventhough it was expected that the R4.5m need-ed to kickstart the quarry plan would besourced from funding freed up on the Cityof Cape Town’s adjustment budget.

This despite Johan van der Merwe, may-oral committeemember for economic, envi-ronmental and spatial planning, claimingearlier this year that the City “would stilllike to see development happen in this areaas soon as possible because of the clear op-portunities and benefits this wouldpresent,” (“More quarry cashhurdles”,Peo-ple’s Post, 13 February 2014).

The City is now investigating a short tomedium term use for the quarry, which hasbeen earmarked for development by San-parks.

Sanparks is currently carrying out feasi-

Cape Town mustbe more ‘liveable’NICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

Every resident has a part to play in drawinginvestment to Cape Town.

This was the message of Wesgro CEO TimHarris, who addressed the Mouille PointRatepayers’ Association on Thursday lastweek.

Wesgro is the official destina-tion marketing, investmentand trade promotion agency forthe Western Cape. It promotesCape Town and the region allover the world as an invest-ment destination and a place tosell products.

“To quote Michael Bloom-berg, if you want people to in-vest in your city, you have tomake it a city people want tolive in,” Harris said.

This means residents neededto be civic-minded and partnerwith the council and local agen-cies to prevent crime and makethe city more liveable, he said.

“There’s a whole lot going on that peopledon’t know about. We’ve got a lot to sell,”he said.

Wine and similar products sell them-selves – the agency needs to tell the unex-pected story, Harris said.

“There’s still the perception that if youwant to do business in South Africa, youneed to go to Johannesburg,” he said.

In his talk, Harris focused on three sec-tors, each of which has proven its viabilityas investment opportunities.

Harris told the story of Cape Town entre-preneur Cameron Stevens, who founded

Prodigy Finance, a company which offersloans to international postgraduate stu-dents at leading business schools.

As an INSEAD graduate who experiencedthe difficulties of financing an internation-al MBA, he and two fellow students set outto solve this problem.

When he approached venture capitalistsin the USA, Stevens was told hecouldn’t run a company likethis from Cape Town, Harrissaid.

Stevens has since proventhem wrong, having distribut-ed $50m in loans to postgradu-ate students from 90 nationali-ties, with exceptional repay-ment performance.

“When you look at assetmanagement, Africa’s moneyis now run out of Cape Town,”Harris said.

The food industry is anothergrowing sector, as illustratedby a local iced tea company.

“In 2009, a rooibos farmernamed Dave Evans started

making Bos iced tea,” Harris says. Today,the product is sold in 14 countries.

“Dave always says we need to ditch ourinferiority complex,” Harris said. “Withour diverse market, if you can sell a productin South Africa, you can sell it anywhere.”

And it’s not just small companies runningthe Cape Town food industry, Harris says,with retail giants like Pick n Pay, Wool-worths and Shoprite based in the Cape.

Manufacturers are also choosing CapeTown, with engines made for Mercedes-Benz trucks and flat-screen TVs producedfor Hisense in factories in Atlantis.

Abuse ‘seriouslydamages kids’The Saartjie Baartman Centre forWomenand Children has raised the alarm

around escalating levels of violence againstchildren.The Centre attributes the higher levels of

violence to an increase in violence in gener-al, with children being caught in the cross-wire – be it gang-related or domestic vio-lence.“Despite all of the awareness raised, at

least three children that we know of havegone missing over the past two weeks. Thesystem is broken and sadly children, ourmost vulnerable members of society, areeasy targets for predators,” says ShaheemaMcLeod, director of the Centre.

MotivateUsing Child Protection Week, which is thisweek, the Centre launched an anonymouspostcard campaign, aimed at exploring themotivation for violence. The campaign,named “I deserve it”, tasked 600 Grade 10pupils to describe the circumstances thatwould warrant domestic violence.Responses varied, from the unacceptabilityof violence, no matter the situation, to vio-lence being deserved when dinner wasn’tready or an expected (but unconfirmed) af-fair had taken place.McLeod says they are not surprised by

the findings of the campaign. She says oftenthere is a disconnect between what peopleknow to be wrong and how they behave.“Our findings revealed that regardless of

the community and the school, the pupil re-sponses very much depended on the envi-ronment in which the child had beenraised.”

Stories of child abuse are commonplacein SouthAfrica; one out of four children areabused daily and it has been estimated thata child goes missing every five hours. De-spite the country’s child protection laws,policies and programmes, high levels ofabuse and violence are reported on a dailybasis.

Damage“Children are not only affected when theythemselves are the victims of violence – ex-posure to violence, for example towards themother, can be seriously damaging to theiremotional psyche,” says Zeenat Osman,child counsellor at the Centre.“Children who have witnessed domestic

violence may experience a variety of emo-tions ranging from guilt to helplessness,which in turn can lead to behavioural prob-lems or social difficulties.“The postcard campaign was very in-

sightful in this regard; it provided an oppor-tunity for the children to explore the ramifi-cations of violence through an anonymousplatform.”

Help for abuseGrade 10 pupils fromSeaPointHighSchool,Leadership College, Gugulethu Compre-hensive Secondary School and NormanHenshilwood High School took part in thepostcard campaign.Established in Manenberg in 1999, the

Centre helps victims of violence and abuse.Typical problems faced by the childrenwhovisit the Centre include abuse, neglect, dis-placement, behavioural problems, sub-stance abuse and difficulties at school.

PP the Porcupinefree to wee in natureNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

While green shoots are slowly returning tothe areas on TableMountain affected by therecent wildfires, a local resident has re-turned too.An adult male porcupine has been re-

leasedback into SilvermineNatureReserveafter being rehabilitated by the SPCA.The severely burned porcupine was

found by an SPCA inspector near the San-parks Silvermine office off Ou Kaapse Wegtwo weeks after the fire.The porcupine, nicknamed “PP” due to

his habit of peeing on everyone, was takento Cape of Good Hope SPCA’s short-termwildlife care facility in Grassy Park, wherehis burns were treated daily for twomonths.“He was treated by our on-site veterinari-

ans. He was rescued a short distance fromthe road along Ou Kaapse Weg, and so wasreleased back into the same section of theTableMountainNational Park,” says SPCAspokesperson Wanika Davids.

PP is one of many animals rehabilitatedafter being injured in the fire, says Davids.“We rescued and cared for a number of tor-toises, snakes and porcupines and success-fully released two angulate tortoises, fourparrot-beak tortoises, a few Cape cobras,one puff adder, one boomslang and one por-cupine.”Another porcupine is still undergoing

treatment for his burnt feet, Davids says.“He is recovering well and we expect to

take him home to the wild soon,” she says.Most of the animals suffered burns to

their feet or were displaced.“There was a grysbok that also came into

our centre after the fire, but succumbed tohis injuries which were too severe. Threeother porcupines also suffered more severewounds and did not survive,” Davids says.However, healing the animals is only the

first step in recovery, Davids explains.“Our aim when helping displaced or in-

jured wildlife is to assist them medicallyand return them to their natural habitats asquickly as possible,” she explains.V For more information on SPCA call 021 700 4140.

even plan on winning,” says Rukadza of hisvictory.Trail queenand four-timeOldMutualTwo
