MASIPHUMELELE: LAND ‘UNSUITABLE’
Move to dump site haltedMONIQUE DUVAL
@monique_duval
An investigation into the relocation ofMasiphumelele residents to Noord-hoek has been halted.
This comes after the land earmarked forthe relocation, owned by the City of CapeTown, was deemed not feasible as it was pre-viously used as a dump site.During protest action over land Disaster
Risk Management trucks were stoned inMasiphumelele at the weekend.Proportional representative councillor
Mzuvukile Nikelo says a land audit was con-ducted in the valley by the City.Following a call for better living condi-
tions by residents living in the Masiphume-lele wetlands, the City has opted to look foralternate land.“Over the years, the population of
Masiphumelele has grown significantly andpeoplehave settled in thewetlands,”he says.Due to the conditionof the land, it is inhab-
itable as there is no firm ground for peopleto build their shacks, Nikelo explains.In recent months residents have resorted
to using builder’s rubble to make the landmore sturdy.Resident PamelaMakhuphula says people
living in the wetlands are desperate for suit-able land. “Masi is over-populated and wedon’t have a choice but to live here. The landis problematic – during the winter monthsthe water rises and runs straight throughour homes,” she says.Living in the wetlands results in children
getting sick and taking long to recover as aresult of stagnant water, Makhuphula says.At night the area is completely dark and
residents are often too scared to fetch water,she comments.“You can’t even see your hand in front of
your face. Fetching water at night is like adeath sentence,” she says.Makhuphula further claims criminals are
using the wetlands to their advantage asthey often “hide out” in the area.“Everyone – even the police – are afraid
to go inside there. Some officers refuse to
chase criminals into the wetlands becausethey know their lives are at risk,” she says.In a letter to theSouthPeninsulaSubcoun-
cil, Mary Turok from the Fish Hoek ValleyOlderPersonsForumraises questions aboutthe progress of the relocation.She queries the land audit, the available
land and the use of a 148ha municipal sitein Noordhoek. The letter was written in re-sponse to questions raised by senior citizensat a meeting earlier this month.
Nikelo says officials were shocked to dis-cover theavailable landbelonged to theCity.Subcouncil chairpersonFelicityPurchase
says the City investigated four sites, one ofwhich was found to be owned by the City.“This was the Noordhoek site, but becauseit was used as a dump site, it is not feasiblefor the relocation,” she says.Due to legislation governing dump sites,
the City has to wait for the land to be clearedof harmful gases, Purchase explains.
Chaos erupted in Masiphumelele on Sat-urday 16 November when residents protest-ed for land.Purchase says stones were thrown at Dis-
aster Risk Management trucks bringing aidto those affected by the inclement weather.She agrees the wetlands are unsuitable,
but emphasises finding appropriate land forthe relocation will take time.V Share your thoughts! Starting with the word “Post”SMS your comments to 32516. SMSes cost R1.

Why the need to rain on somebody else’s parade?KEN BRIDGENS
While wandering around the suburb ofFishHoek either by foot or in amotor car,one is occasionally struck by the necessi-ty of some people to sully the surround-ings.This particularly struck me on seeing
the large collection bins situated at theFish Hoek Civic Centre parking area re-duced to blackened molten plastic.
Somebody had the whimsical need tothrow amatch into a collection of recycla-ble paper.What is it that makes one human being
have such scant regard for somebodyelse’s possessions or livelihood?Are theydeficient of a fewcaringgenes?I thinkwe all want to live in a clean and
safe environment and, by and large, wehave that in the Deep South.So, if perchance, you are about in the
early hours, and nobody is about, pleasesuppress your base instincts and do notrain on somebody else’s parade.Who knows, one day I might return the
favourwhen I pass your parade in the ear-ly hours.V This article was submitted and appeared onlineat www.peoplespost.co.za. Submit your stories byclicking in the “Tell your story tab” and logging onto the site using your user details or your Facebooklog-in.

CHILD ABUSE: PARENTS AND CAREGIVERS HESITANT TO GO TO POLICE
Sins of the mothersLAILA MAJIET
@laila_newsie
The very people meant to pro-tect their offspring are theones who are keeping quiet as
their children are hurt.The number of rape cases involv-
ing children is on the rise, sayschild protection organisation Safe-line’s director Rochelle Philander.Safeline has already treated over
390 children this year, compared tothe 250minors assisted at the facili-ty in 2012.Alarming statistics indicate chil-
dren between the ages of two andeight years old are abused for up tofour years before it is reported.“The justice system has failed
the people. Children younger thanfive are not able to testify and asa result many cases of child rapeare withdrawn. The child is putback into the environment wherethe perpetrator is and the abusecontinues,” Philander says.Disclosure of the rape causes sig-
nificant distress for the child andhis or her family.But, it should not be a deterrent
from seeking justice, experts say.Six out of seven children re-
ferred to Safeline never come forcounselling due to parental com-placency, Philander says.“Mothers or caregivers often do
not acknowledge the problemwhen their child reports being sex-ually abused. They do not believetheir children as the perpetrator iseither a relative or the mother’sboyfriend. This results in second-ary trauma. The child will then ei-ther become abuse reactive, bed
wetting may become more fre-quent and the child may even havenightmares.”Safeline’s Blanche Olivier says
withmost child rape cases, the per-petrator is often a relative.“This is why parents struggle to
come forward. In the instance
where the perpetrator is the moth-er’s boyfriend or husband, shemayworry about the impact reportingthe case will have on her family’sfinancial stability when the perpe-trator is the sole breadwinner,”she says.But nothing should take prece-
dence over a child’s safety, Olivierstresses.Unemployment and overcrowd-
ing are two of the possible contrib-utors to sexually inappropriate be-haviour among children.Philander says: “Cases of back-
yard dwellers’ children being
raped by the landlord is becomingmore prevalent. Because back-yarders use the toilet inside themain house, it provides landlordsa window of opportunity to rapeunsuspecting children.”Parents, especially mothers, are
being urged to become more pro-tective of their children.“As mothers we often become so
consumed in our work and ourproblems that we forget to take thetime out to listen to our children.Communication between a parentand child is essential. It allows youtheopportunity to get toknowyourchild better,making it easier to seethe signs should your child be sex-ually abused,” Philander says.Safeline’s PatriciaWilliams says
the children should be the parent’sfirst priority. “Value them and ifthey disclose they are beingabused, take the necessary actionto protect them,” she encourages.Helena Martin, statistics officer
at Safeline, says too often parentshear their children, but fail to lis-ten to them. “There is no one achild trusts more than his or herparents,” she insists.Knowing what to do when your
child discloses that he or she hasbeen raped is essential, Philandersays.“Report the matter at your near-
est police station. A docket will beopened and victim support officerswill refer the child to a hospital formedical intervention before thechild is referred to Safeline or anysimilar organisation,” she says.Call Safeline’s toll-free number
on 0800 35553 or the after hour cri-sis line on 072 367 4588.

ASSOCIATION ALERTED: ONUS ON OWNERS
Womaninjured indog attackMONIQUE DUVAL
@monique_duval
The management of domestic pets is un-der the spotlight in Marina Da Gama.
This comes after a resident was in-jured when she was attacked by a neigh-bour’s dogs last week.
Resident Mary Lou Qually says whilewalking her dog, Oliver, on Tuesday 12 No-vember she came across a man walking twobig dogs. “I was about to ask him to wait forme to pass, when one of his dogs pulled awayand came straight towardsOliver,” she says.
The second dog followed suit, Qually says,and in the ensuing force she was pushed tothe ground. She was in pain and sustainedinjuries to her foot and elbow as she fell.
“I was terrified and immediatelyscreamed – very loudly – which scared thedogs off. I very angrily asked the young manwhy he wasn’t holding on to the dogs moresecurely,” she says.
Themandidnot apologise andmerely saidshe was walking on the wrong side of theroad, Qually alleges.
This infuriated her as she believes petowners should be more aware of how domes-tic animals interact with each other.
She was assisted by a private securityguard. A contractor working in the areahelped her home.
Qually,whohadmeanwhileheardof apre-vious incident involving poor animal con-trol, reported the issue to the Marina DaGama Association.
Chairperson Bob Craske says they arethankful the injuries were not worse.
“It could have been very serious had anelderly or frail person, or a child been in-volved. Appreciation must be given to thosewho assisted at the time,” he says.
Pet owners are responsible for ensuring
their pets were controlled and do not posea threat to others, he adds. “If one personcannot control twodogs on leads, thendonotexercise them at the same time or ask a sec-ond adult to assist. Once one dog slips theleash or pulls away, it means the second dogmust be taken towards it to recover it – mak-ing the situation worse,” Craske says.
In a separate incident,Qually says shewit-nessed dogs swimming in the vlei and chas-ing ducklings.
With the assistance of her husband, Qual-ly jumped in apedalo to chase the dogs away.
She says the owner managed to get thedogs back to his property.
“I spoke to the owner who merely saidthey are hunting dogs and do this all thetime. In an area like Marina Da Gama, theducks on the vlei are part of thenatural envi-ronment andneed to be lookedafter,”Quallysays.
Craske says particular rules, regulated bythe City of Cape Town’s parks department,apply to the canals and vlei.
“All wildlife must be protected from do-mestic dogs,” he says.
Cape of Good Hope SPCA spokespersonLise-Marie Greeff-Villet says the City re-quires all pet owners to control their dogswhen using public streets or open spaces.
“If you have a large or active dog, and youare not sure whether you can control it onyour own, have someone assist you,” she ad-vises.
Pet owners are required to know theirneighbourhoods and avoid streets where ag-gressive dogs are situated, Greeff-Villetadds. The City requires owners to securetheir animals within their property. Thosewho do not comply can be reported to LawEnforcement.V Share your thoughts! Starting with the word “Post”SMS your comments to 35216. SMSes cost R1.

Cape Consumers shares R37-millionannual bonusCape Consumers announced last weekthat it will pay a whopping R37 millioninto the accounts of its 42 000 cardhold-ers in its much anticipated 2013 bonuspayout this month.“While this means cardholders willhave additional money for Christmasand holiday shopping, the payoutshould bring further cheer to stores inthe Western Cape and beyond over thefestive season.” So says Monty Stephen-son, acting managing director at CapeConsumers.He says that cardholders’ spend grew by4% during Cape Consumers’ financialyear, which ended on 6 July 2013. Card-holder turnover, which broke throughthe billion rand barrier for the firsttime in 2013, reached a total of R1.03billion by the company’s financial yearend.“The highest bonus to be paid into acardholder’s account is R30 023 andthe bonus for the top 100 cardholders isan average of R8 941 this year,” saysStephenson. “The latest bonus bringsthe total of the annual bonuses paid tocardholders over the past five years tomore than R186 million.”Annual bonuses are shared amongcardholders every November in propor-tion to the amount they spend during
Cape Consumers’ financial year at anyof the 5 600 stores nationwide that acceptthe b-Smart card. With the bonuscomprising up to 5% of cardholders’expenditure at these stores, the moreone shops using the b-Smart card, thehigher the bonus is likely to be. Inaddition, consumers don’t have to becardholders for a full year to qualify fora bonus.Speculating on next year’s bonus,Stephenson believes cardholderturnover should break another record.“We have recently seen encouragingresults posted by Shoprite and Pick nPay of turnover growth of between 8%and 10%. This suggests South Africanconsumers are possibly seeing anupturn in the economic environment,”says Stephenson.Cape Consumers seeks to increasecardholders’ spend over the next fiveyears to achieve its vision of developinga supplier network and product offeringtailored for the family. It has also soughtto delight cardholders through a newweb-based customer relationshipmanagement and transaction system.“This, combined with an experiencedteam, enables Cape Consumers to driveefficiencies and deliver quality service,”says Stephenson.

VRYGROND: A STEP UP
New hopefor childrenMONIQUE DUVAL
@monique_duval
Poverty, poor living conditions andmalnutrition are all in the past forfour Vrygrond children.
Last week, the childrenweremoved fromtheir homes to a safe haven to help them ex-cel at school.The children are part of a scholarship
programme run by the Homework Enrich-ment Life skills Programme (HELP).The programme,which is aimed at assist-
ing young children with homework, isbased at Capricorn and Heathfield primaryschools.HELP founder Anna-Marie Kaars-Sijpes-
teijn says since the inception of the projectat the schools, facilitators have been work-ing with children in need of a better envi-ronment.“Many of these children are so gifted, but
due to the social ills in their communitiesthey struggle to excel,” Kaars-Sijpesteijnsays.“With the programme we offer them a
safe place where they can come, have some-thing to eat, do their homework and get as-sistance with from a facilitator.”To this end the organisation bought a
house in Marina Da Gama where the chil-dren will get a second chance.Each room accommodates two children
of the same gender, who will be supervisedby house parents.
The hallways are filled with the laughterand chatter of happy children,whogreet po-litely as they enjoy their new home.Facilitator Jean Mackenzie says many of
the children live in appalling conditionsand this, in turn, affects their ability tothrive at school.“We often find that, because the parents
have not finished school they are unable toguide their children,” she says.Facilitators Langton Muyani and Carol
Sawyer tell the grim tale of an 11-year-oldboy who spent several hours at the after-school programme.“I noticed he wasn’t keen on going home
and spent several hours with us each day.One day it was raining and I offered to takehim home,” she says.“He asked me to stop when we reached
a gravel road and warned me I would be atrisk if I entered his community.”Muyani says the boy came from the poor-
est area in Vrygrond and was embarrassedby the holes in his clothes.“He had no confidence and wasn’t even
sure if hewas going tohigh school,” he says.“We are glad he is in the house and hope
being here will help him.”Kaars-Sijpesteijn says after identifying
the children most in need of a stable home,they approached the parents for permis-sion.“One of the little girls was given a bursa-
ry from anAmerican funder to attendWyn-berg Girls’ School,” she says.“Due to the requirements, she had to be
placed in an environment to help her thriveand so we moved her into the house.”V For more information visit www.help-edupro-gramme.co.za.

OCEAN VIEW: WAIVER DENIED
Cost to runa legal spazaMONIQUE DUVAL
@monique_duval
Plans to legalise spaza shops inOcean View have been delayed asbusiness owners have requested a
waiver on the requirements.OceanViewCivicAssociation (OVCA)
chairpersonOliver Castro says businessowners in the area are unhappy aboutsome of the requirements set out by theCity of Cape Town.Officials attended a workshop held in
Ocean View last week, where they ex-plained the zoning regulations which af-fected the running of businesses fromresidential properties.Earlier this year several owners were
issued with notices from City inspectorsinforming them of their non-compliancewith land use departures.For this reason a business forum was
established to assist spaza shop owners.Castro says the biggest concern was
the need for a conveyancer’s certificatein the application for zoning.“In our research, we found that it
could cost up to R1 800 for a certificate.The shop owners in Ocean View cannotafford this,” he says.The forum has now written a letter to
the City’s spatial planning departmentto request a waiver of the certificate.“It’s a very sensitive matter and we
hope the City will be able to help us,” hesays.“There are many business owners
whowant to ensure they complywith thelaw, but the income they get from theirshops isn’t much and they cannot affordthe certificate,” Castro says.Cheryl Walters, director of Planning
and Building Development Manage-ment, confirms receipt of the letter andsays she would be responding shortly.Walters explains a land use applica-
tion must be made to the planning de-partment to operate a house shop fromproperty which is zoned Single Residen-tial 1 (SR1).She says if the property is zonedSingle
Residential 2, shop owners need not ap-ply for land use departures to operate aspaza shop.“A copy of the title deed is also re-
quired, which the City official can use todetermine whether or not a conveyanc-er’s certificate is also required,” shesays.Conveyancer certificates are only
needed for SR1 properties and the Cityis unable to waiver the conveyancer cer-tificate due to the its legal framework,Walters says.“A title deed condition is an applicable
law which needs to be taken into consid-eration for an application,” she says“In some instances the application
cannot proceed without the restrictivecondition being removed, which is a sep-arate application in terms of the Remov-al of Restrictions Act.”V Share your thoughts! Starting with the word“Post” SMS your comments to 32516 at R1.

MUIZENBERG: SOME PLANS ON HOLD
MID to tackleboundariesMONIQUE DUVAL
@monique_duval
The impact of boundaries on the imple-mentation of projects took centre stageat a Muizenberg Improvement District
(MID) meeting this week.The annual meeting, held at the Muizen-
berg Bowling Club on Wednesday evening,gave members an overview of the year andupcoming projects.Inhis report, chairpersonTonySmith said
there has been significant changes to theboard.He explained each director is now respon-
sible for a portfolio and the MID has em-ployed a full-time manager.Smith also said the camera network has
continued to expand, as more streets haveopted to have cameras installed.“Street committees have started to raise
funds and are eager to join the network,” hesaid.The crime situation in Muizenberg is of-
ten distorted by the annual crime statistics,Smith commented.“TheMuizenberg police precinct also cov-
ers areas like Vrygrond and Seawinds, sothe statistics donot tell uswhat is happeningin our area,” Smith said.In the budget report, governance director
Elizabeth Milne explained while projectslike themural for the civic centre and sculp-tures for the pavilion were planned, it couldnot be executed.Due to issues with the MID operating
boundary, the organisation were informedthe park, beach and footbridge fell outsideof the demarcated area, she said.Milne further explained the MID has now
approached the City of Cape Town about ex-tending their boundary (“Plans to extendMID’s boundaries”,People’s Post, 24 Septem-ber).“It doesn’t make sense for us to manage
one side of the street and not the other,” shesaid.Smith also raised issues regarding the
cleaning contract and said after seven yearsthe MID has a new contractor.He explained after re-evaluating the needs
of the area and, under the advice of City offi-cials, the organisation tendered for a newcontractor.“The previous service provider opted not
to apply for the tender and it was awardedto a new contractor.”Smith further highlighted plans to assist
homeless people in the village and plans totackle derelict buildings in the area.He said the organisation will continue to
work with the Muizenberg police, Safer To-gether and the Muizenberg CommunitySafety Initiative (MCSI) to find solutions tomatters of concern.Resident George Hill said safety at Mui-
zenberg Park has improved, but was ada-mant a community initiative is needed.“The park is in a better condition but we
need the community to take ownership ofthe park,” Hill says.“It’s a real asset (in Muizenberg).”

Win! Have fun withFlip and his friendsChildren’s author Charlotte Ewins has apassion forwriting creatively for children.And from her pen was borne the colour-
ful series Flip, Flippie and Friends.The series is in English, Afrikaans and
isiXhosa and teaches young readersnumber recognition, as well as how toidentify the letters of the alphabet andshapes and colours.The easily-recognisable and lovable
characters will quickly endear themselvesto their readership, with some help fromparents and teachers.With her background as a writer and
producer of children’s plays at the MarketTheatre and working for a publishinghouse, Ewins believes she was ideallyplaced when “a four-year-old boy hap-pened to enter my life” and re-ignited herdesire to write for children.“I realised I was in the perfect position
to go ahead and runwith a dream project.”She decided to produce a series of books
that brought early-learning concepts tochildren through visual appeal, while in-troducing “a sense of fun and with a broadstory line”.Ewins says: “We worked towards inter-
action ideas to draw theyoung readers intothe learning experience.”The first titles in the series 1-2-3, Shapes
and Colours and A-B-C are targeted at two-to six-year-olds.Illustrator Riaan Retief, a web designer
and developer since leaving college, ad-mits to “always having had an interest inart and illustration”.He says: “This project was my first illus-
tration job and a massive learning curve.”V Five People’s Post readers can each win a set ofAfrikaans books and a sticker page. Visit www.peo-plespost.co.za to enter. Winners will be notified byphone.V Visit www.flipflippieandfriends.co.za.

Safety’s sakeWith 16 Days of Activism of No Vio-
lence Against Women and Childrenlooming, the safety of vulnerable
members of society is againhighlighted.Thehorrific circumstances in whichBredasdorp teenager Anene Booysen and afemale student in India died speak volumesabout how safe women are in society. Bothwere raped and murdered. And they’re notalone. Charmaine Mare (16) was murderedand dismembered in Kraaifontein; Thande-ka Mandonsela (14) was gang-raped andmurdered in Johannesburg and Ge-AudreyGreen (15) was found murdered and stuffedin a drawer under a bed in Kraaifontein.People’s Post readers speak up about how
to fight crime.
CHERYL COTTON believes the death penaltyneeds to reinstated. “If the criminal knows whatwill happen to them they might stop. They rapebecause they try to prove superiority.”
ALISON VAN DER MERWE believes the justice sys-tem needs to raise the bar. “There are too manypolice officers who are corrupt or are lenient tothe guilty (parties). I can’t depend on them.”
ARNOLD CHIKWIRA says women must look athow they dress as it might “tempt men”. “Womenknow there are crazy men out there who rape. Thejustice system has failed to protect them.”
KIM MITCHEL believes the unemployment rateneeds to decrease to minimise crime. “If peopleare busy at work they won’t have time to thinkabout crime. The law needs to improve.”
NOMAZULU NJEMLA says the wheels of justice areeither too slow or don’t turn at all, leading tosome being too scared to speak out. “If you reporta rape today, the rapist is out again tomorrow.”
PETRUS SNELL says police have to up their gameand clean up the streets as crime escalates in theholiday period. “We are approaching the festiveseason and we will hear of more rape cases.”
ENRICO KOORDOM says alcohol and drug abuseplay a major role in violent incidents. “Some peo-ple don’t think when they drink. The death penal-ty must be brought back.”

HOME LOANS: RECORD MONTH
Bonds arewithin reachOctoberwas a recordmonth for the country’sbiggest mortgage origination group.More than 3 600 home loans have formally
been granted to homebuyers for whom thegroup had submitted applications to thebanks, a statement states.“And that brought the total number of fam-
ilies we have helped to acquire their dreamhomes over the past year to more than36 000,” says the group’s CEO Shaun Rade-meyer.What is more, the total value of the bonds
granted through the group in October wasjust over R3bn – or about 25% of the totalmonthly value of bonds currently being reg-istered in the Deeds Office. This puts themortgage originator well in the lead amongSA’s originators, he says.“It also reveals a very healthy recovery in
thepropertymarket since the 2009 recession,when bond approval rates plummeted andwe were only able to secure around R1bnworth of bonds a month for our clients.”At that time, the total value of bonds regis-
tered nationally – according to the Deeds Of-fice – was only around R5bn a month; downfrom a high of around R32bn worth of regis-trations a month during the boom years,when the group was achieving around R6bnworth of grants a month.Now Deeds Office figures show that the
value of mortgages registered has totalled
more than R10bn a month and has beentrending upwards for the past two years.And, Rademeyer says, all indications are
thatOctober’s final registerednumberwill bea new high for the past five years.However, the rate of growth in total house-
hold mortgage balances is currently onlyaround 2.7% a year, so the group iswell aheadof the curve, having achieved a 21% year-on-year growth in the value of grants securedin the 12months to end-August – and a 23.85%year-on-year growth the 12 months to end-October.“The successes we have had in the past
three months are not only indicative of thecurrent higher demand for property, higherproperty prices and the banks’ greater will-ingness to lend, but also of the efficacy of ourhome loan origination procedures,” he says.“Our latest statistics show that our initial
decline rate – the percentage of applicationsdeclined by the first lending institution towhich they are submitted – showed a year-on-year drop of almost 9% at end-October, toonly 38% of applications submitted.”Rademeyer adds the “ratio of applications
declined by one bank but approved by atleast one other showed a year-on-year in-crease of 18% at end-October, resulting in a9.5% year-on-year increase in (the mortgageoriginator group’s) average approval ratio tojust over 75%”.
All amatter of recordPROPERTY24
The Estate Agency Affairs Board(EAAB) has made it clear that all estateagents – whether they operate as soleproprietors, close corporations, Pty Ltdcompanies or partnerships of any kind– need to adhere to the audit require-ments as set by the EAAB’s legislation.According to a statement there is an
audit report format which has to be fol-lowed.It includes an audit report forms and
all estate agencies should make suretheir accounting records are auditedwithin four months of the last day oftheir financial year.This is according toAnnetteEvans, re-
gional manager of the Institute of EstateAgents, who says while this seems to bea confusing and complicated process, allthe steps are listed and agents should gothrough them meticulously.The auditor must be registered with
the Independent Regulatory Board forAuditors and the recordswhich are to beincluded are documents showing all
monies received and paid out, whetherto a trust account or invested in a sav-ings or other account, all assets and lia-bilities, all financial transactions andthe financial position of the business.The statement adds that audit reports
are to be submitted by the appointed au-ditor via email andnot the agent or agen-cy, as the EAAB would prefer to avoidduplications.Evans adds agents are responsible for
making sure their auditor submits therelevant report in time.She says while the Institute will be
running an Audit and Statutory Regula-tions Compliance workshop, which willalso include further information on au-dits on Thursday 23 January, it is alsoadvisable to email PierreOlivier, the au-dit compliancemanager at the EAAB, sothat they can deal directly with queriesregarding audits in the interim.Evans also suggests that agents log in
to the MyEAAB section of their websiteso that they can check and confirm allthe details the EAAB has on record, thestatement states.

SECURING A HOUSE: KNOW WHAT TO DO
Tips on buying propertyHarcourts in Fish Hoek gives useful tips
when buying a property.
Get pre-qualified before you start lookingGetting pre-qualified for a bond is simply
getting an idea of the price range you can af-ford. Using a recognised bond originator forpre-qualification costs you nothing, your in-formation is not verified and the home loanyou are pre-qualified for is not guaranteed.With your permission, credit checks are done,eliminating possible setbacks when applyingto financial institutions once you have madean offer on your chosen property.
Keep your expectations realisticBuying a new home can be emotional, com-
plex and time-consuming. And remember nohouse is perfect!Try to be rational rather than emotional
when considering your needs and wants.If you find a property that suits you but are
worried about certain building aspects, havean inspection done. It may cost some money,but it is worth it for peace of mind.
Do your homeworkIf you find a suitable home in a neighbour-
hood that you’re not familiar with, make sureyou ask your agent the right questions.These include what kind of schools are in
the area; what is the crime like; and if thereis a neighbourhood watch.Check out the location of shopping facili-
ties, police and fire stations, as well as hospi-tals and medical clinics. These are all thingswhich might affect the property value andquality of life.Be prepared to pay market value for the
right home.
Protect yourselfAskyour estate agent for a copyof thedocu-
ments you will be asked to sign if you decideto submit an offer.Read theOffer to Purchase agreement thor-
oughly ahead of time and query the agent on
any aspects that you find confusing or whichyou are not familiar with.Also, if you are applying for a bond ensure
you have all the necessary financial informa-tion thatmay be required. If buying a Section-al Title, ask the agent to provide you with up-
to-date Body Corporate Financial Statementsand check to see that the levies are not in ar-rears.V For more information phone Harcourts Maynard Bur-goyne in Fish Hoek on (021) 782 6208 or visitwww.fishhoek.harcourts.co.za or www.harcourts.co.za.

an earthquake in Johannesburg.In Cape Town CBD, a building collapsed after the
heavy rains and in Durban a mall reportedly caved in,killing one person.
Added to the apocalyptic weather, there’s Christmasbarging its way into our collective psyche.So it’s a mad flurry of making mental notes of essen-
tial must-haves (which clearly aren’t), double-checkbookings for getaways and doing a 007 manoeuvre tofigure out what gifts to take your hosts.And as the big day looms, frustration mounts.
There’s filling Christmas stockings, checking those ev-er-lengthening lists at least twice tomake sure all basesare covered.Then there’s socialmedia adding to the chaoswe sim-
ply can’t livewithout.Constant posts slipping intoyourFacebook newsfeed about road death tolls and the esca-lating crime rate, and the gnawing worry if loved onesare safe.
The expected road death tolls combinedwith the per-sistent escalating crime rate would play on the mindwhen making sure your loved ones are safe.There’s a sane, sensible part of yourmind quietly ob-
serving your lunatic behaviour and it’s going: “Tsk!Tsk!”Yes, it disapproves of yourmanic behaviour this sea-
son. So, be kind to yourself. Please. What possible rea-son is there to try rearranging the world because it’sbeen negatively reinforced since childhood.Hit pause – you’ll find you will like it.Reflect, take stock and give yourself some time to be
at peacewith yourself and yourworld. Think of the lessfortunate, think of those trapped in dire poverty.Think. Have a calmer holiday. You need it.
Options to parking sagaThe article “New plans in pipeline for park-ing space” (People’s Post, 31 October) refers.The owner of this property shows a com-
plete lack of regard for the needs of his ownemployees and clients for safe parkingwhenat work or visiting this business.One of the best craft markets operate one
block away from this parking space, so thenoble idea of a market to raise funds for thehomeless may or may not work.His future plans of building an apartment
block with underground parking consistingof one- and two-bedroom flats with pent-house loft apartments is most ambitious.One can only hope a proper environmen-
tal assessment is done – taking into accountthepositionof this parking lot, existingbusi-ness and property, and traffic flow.Once the property has the car gate in place
it will be safer at night, as sensor lightswould alert any one to movement.An idea that could work for the owner is
to rent out a secure parking space at nightto tenants in the surrounding buildings assafe parking is in high demand.JANINE VAN VUUREN,Muizenberg
Scenic drives: time to clean up railwaysIn response to “All eyes on scenic drives”(People’s Post, 14 November). I fully agreewith Simon’s Town Civic Association chair-person Lorraine Holloway and her com-ments in the article.I would only like to add an urgent request
to Metrorail to put clean train sets on the
line to Simon’s Town. It is all very well im-proving the scenic drives, but what aboutthe terrible state of the trains on this line?Lastly, what about the awful rusty fencing
between Fish Hoek and Glencairn?TERRY,Email
Shooting pets is not a solutionThis is to bring to the attention of people liv-ing in the block bordered by Corsair Way,Brigantine Road and Caravel Street thatthere is someone shooting animals with apellet gun.I have had two cats with pellets embedded
in their skin. The latest cat had become soill that I took her to the vet, who removedthe pellet. She had lead poisoning.I have spoken to a police officer and been
advised that shooting a pellet gun in a built-up area is illegal. Should I ever find who theculprit is I will be laying a charge.This shooting must be happening during
the day, as my cats are kept in at night.If a cat is annoying you, just spray them
withwater – theywill run away fast enough.Shooting them will not solve the problem.SANDRA KNOTT,Sun Valley
Your SMSesSkate park in Kommetjie
. The skate park should be built!
. The skate park idea is better than morehousing!
. Yes for the skatepark.Checkout theonethey built in Richard’s Bay.
. Asamatter of interestwhy should therebe a debatewhenkids’ entertainment – good– should be our be all and end all. Give kidsa chance and just do it.
. Yes, go, Greg! Why worry about noisewhen a skate park can provide a safe areato skate and kids can be kids? We were allyoung once, right?Drunk driving. I think it’s an excellent idea. If youwant
to have a drink at a party, a designated driv-er who will abstain must be decided on be-fore going out. An alternate solution will beto hire a minibus and driver, get a fewfriends to club together and a party can behad by everyone. J Curtis, Faerie Knowe
. No, those who drink have no inkling ofthe state they are in. The result of thisproves otherwise. Try talking sense to adrunk person and youmay as well be tryingto make sense to a chacma baboon. NevilleHickman, Simon’s TownCCTV cameras. Cameras in our community definitely
assist in combating crime.. Yes, it will help the community, assist
police and stop robberies, break-ins anddrug trading.
. Regarding CCTV cameras: yes, it is agood thing. Just get the right police officersandneighbourhoodwatch, then itwillwork.
. Yes, it is effective, but what’s the use?If the criminals get caught, their punish-ment is R500 bail and they are free to carryon with the crimes. Harsher punishmentshould be implemented.
. I strongly support cameras to assist infighting crime. MichelleGeneral. Will Moxie feel the same if a few of
her family members are murdered? It isobvious that she is a member of theupper crust, safe from the real world.
. Regarding the boat on the beach.Truth is, why put it there in the firstplace?
. Why don’t they break up (the boat)and carry it off in pieces? Problemsolved.

Owner Clive Hingston responds: I havetraded in Muizenberg for the last 25 years(and) would like to see (the area) reach theheights it was at before.My staff and clients regularly use the
parking area, so the statement of a lack ofregard is unfounded.I strongly believe the informal trading
sector contributes to the growth and renew-al of areas.As the parking area is zoned GR2 the
rights to develop the parking area are de-fined in the Zoning Regulations of the Cityof Cape Town. All necessary processes andapprovals will be followed as defined.The security gate will be installed in the
next couple ofweekswith security included.I provided the body corporate of Doreena
Court with a proposal to rent the parkingovernight to tenants and owners in DoreenaCourt. This was done because I recognisethe parking shortage for residential proper-ty owners.Unfortunately there was no response to
the proposal. I am more than happy to reo-pen the discussion if there is interest in sucha proposal.

SA’s best fighterscollide at UMFLIAM MOSES
@LiamCPT
Glory, national titles and a shot at inter-national gold will be on the line whenthe national muaythai championships
crash into Cape Town next month.The Ultimate Muaythai Fight Night
(UMF) will see several of South Africa’s topMuaythai exponents battle it out.
Two titles will be up for contention on thenight and top performers could also be se-lected to participate in the inaugural Afri-can Championships and World Champion-ships next year.
Sifu Quinton Chong, founder of DragonPower, says only the best will be selected tothe SA team.
“We like to have full teams (for interna-tional tournaments), but it’s not just aboutgoing there to represent (South Africa) be-cause we want to get medals,” he says.
“We want the strongest guys to go; theguyswhowe thinkare going tomake it.Mostof the guys we take have a chance to winmedals.”
Chong adds all fighters will assemble atDragon Power, head camp of the South Afri-ca Amateur Muaythai Federation, for amonth-long course before the internationaltournaments.
The top-billed fight will see Jarred “Roth-wieler” Rothwell facing off against CeehKhuboni for the national professional title.
Rothwell, an Observatory resident, re-cently returned from competing against theworld’s best at the SportAccord World Com-bat Games in Russia.
Widely considered to be the best muaythaifighter in South Africa, he says the experi-ence made him a better fighter.
“I feel like it has matured me in the sport;it has (prepared me) mentally. Being physi-cally ready is the easy part,” Rothwell says.
“It makes you believe in yourself; that youcan challenge the people at the top. That’swhere I feel where I now have the edge. Ifought at that level and did so well. It givesme a lot of confidence.”
Rothwell beatKhuboni onpoints last year,but is treating the fight as if he’s facing theformer SA champion for the first time. “Ican’t underestimate him just because I’vebeaten him before,” he says.
“He has obviously studied me, so he willknow what to do and not to do – the sameon my side. I want to beat him again, but Ialso want to beat myself. I want to put on abetter performance than the last time wewent head-to-head.”
UMF will take place at Dragon Power inPaarden Eiland on Saturday 7 December.
Fighters from the Eastern Cape, Durban,Johannesburg, Free State and Western Capewill participate.
The African Championships will takeplace in Morocco from Thursday 23 to Satur-day 25 January and the World Champion-ships will take place in Langkawi, Malaysiafrom Thursday 1 to Saturday 10 May.

Baseball development battleLIAM MOSES
@LiamCPT
Baseball officials have accused theWest-ern Cape Department of Cultural Af-fairs and Sport (DCAS) of poor admin-
istration.DCAS selected Devonshire Baseball Club
to partner with Fairmount High and Mon-tague’s Gift Primary schools as part a sportdevelopment programme, leading to theclub’s junior ranks swelling as a result. Butthe chairpersons of Grassy Park’s Crusad-ers Baseball Club and Ottery’s Thistle Base-ball Club have questioned why their clubswere overlooked for the programme.Thistle chairpersonGarth vanEeden says
the club has been developing the sport in thearea for many years.“Last year Devonshire had one senior and
one junior team.Theyhaven’t beendoingde-
velopment at any of the schools in those are-as, while we did. I hold coaching clinics atthose schools,” Van Eeden says.“Montague’s Gift Primary knows about
baseball because of the clinics. The headcoach at the school toldme he has beenman-dated to send the kids to Devonshire Base-ball Club.”Crusaders chairperson Clinton Fortune
believes either Thistle or Crusaders shouldhave been selected as the club to head theprogramme.“Devonshire moved into a area where
there have been clubs for 30 years,” he says.“Now they are depleting other club’s play-
ing resources.”Devonshire’s partnership with the
schools formspart of theDCASMassPartici-pation, Opportunity and Access, Develop-ment and Growth (MOD) Centre pro-gramme.
The MOD centre programme see schoolsprovide recreational sport and other extra-mural activities to pupils. It also allowsschools to focus on particular sport codes oractivities.Baseball was selected as the focus code for
Montague’s Gift and Fairmount and, as perprocedure, the closest club to the school wasselected as the partner.The schools are thenprovidedwithall nec-
essary equipment for the sport, while coach-es from the club coach at the schools, eitheron a voluntary basis or as employees ofDCAS. Players from the school can then jointhe partner club or other clubs.VanEeeden believes the club should be se-
lected based on its history of development,while Fortune believes the club that hasbeen in the area longer should be given pref-erence. He also suggests clubs should be al-lowed to apply to head the programme in a
tender process.But DCAS spokesperson Daniel Johnson
says the process does not allow for this.“The strategy is to link local schools to lo-
cal clubs,” he says.“The strategy determined the outcome of
the process. Tender processes are generallylinked to procurement and the Public Fi-nance Management Act.”Johnson adds the pupils at schoolswith fo-
cus codes are allowed to join any club.“While there is a relationship between
Montague’s Gift and Devonshire, (pupils)may join any club of their choice,” he says.“Thismessage will certainly be communi-
cated to all our coaches.”The procedure does also not allow for the
best suited club to be selected, he adds.Crusaders currently play in the Major
League, while Devonshire play in the Pro-motion League.

Rowing to nowhere for a worthy causeLIAM MOSES
@LiamCPT
Two southern suburbs men aim to rowthemselves into thehistory bookswhen theyattempt 48 hours of non-stop rowing nextmonth.Noordhoek resident Greg Hunt and Grae-
me Colman from Plumstead plan to use onefan rowing machine and take one to twohour turns rowing and resting.The pair hope to raise money for charity
with the event Rowed to Nowhere.But the original idea was to prove any-
thing is possible, they say.It was during a hike inNoordhoek that the
idea came to mind, Colman says.“We were talking about people, optimism,
pessimism and being realistic and unrealis-tic,” he says.“The whole unrealistic thing came from a
Will Smith quote: he says being realistic isthe most commonly travelled path to medi-ocrity and that you have to be unrealisticand challenge yourself to overcome hurdles.So we decided to do something that is com-pletely unrealistic to us.”The pair aim to row the equivalent of 648
km during the planned period and are cur-rently hard at work in training.The event will not only test Hunt and Col-
man’s strength and fitness, but also their de-termination, willpower and mentalstrength.Hunt says the event was designed to be
mentally and physical exhausting.“It’s brutal and monotonous; that’s what
we wanted – something that is going to beas mental as it is physical,” he says.“That monotony of sitting on a rower in-
side, rather thanbeing outside, and the sleepdeprivation will be tough.”Headds the little sleep theywill get iswhat
sets Rowed to Nowhere apart from other ex-treme endurance events.“During many of these multi-day events
peoplewill sleep at night, be refreshed in themorning and continue,” Hunt says.“I know that once you start introducing a
little element of sleep deprivation, thewheels start falling off. You really have to fo-cus and motivate yourself.”Hunt and Colman will also have to eat
while on themachines, so touse their breaksfor nothing but resting.They plan to overcome the monotony and
sleep deprivation with good music and haveinvited anyone interested in assisting to thevenue, to join in and match them stroke forstroke or just cheer them on.The charities which will benefit from the
event are the Goodsport Trust and Pink
Drive.The Trust provides sports to underprivi-
leged communities in the SouthernPeninsu-la, while Pink Drive is a breast cancerawareness charity.Hunt and Colman hope donors will split
the amount they want to donate between thetwo organisations.
Donations can be made at www.given-gain.com.Rowed to Nowhere will take place at the
Porter Estate in Tokai from Friday 20 De-cember at 19:00 until 19:00 on Sunday 22 De-cember.For more information or to assist call Col-
man on 082 468 3943.
