>> AfriForum will call in the environmentalmanagement inspectors (Blue Scorpions)to take action to take pollution issueSONJA NELL>>[email protected]
ASalastresorttoaddresstheongoing problems withwater quality of the rivers,
ponds, streams and canals inAmanzimtoti, AfriForum will callin the environmental manage-ment inspectors (Blue Scorpions)to tackle the pollution issue.
AccordingtoChrisFourie,Afri-Forum KZN provincial co-ordinator, the Amanzimtoti com-munityand theorganisation is fedup with empty promises from theeThekwini Municipality to rectifythe problem.
AfriForum tookwater samplesfrom a stream on Thursday 10July after the eThekwini Munici-pality informed the Amanzimtoticommunity during the Toti RiversSummit the day before that thepollution issue has been solvedand action was taken against theguilty parties.
But tenants at the SouthgateBusiness Park allegedly againpolluted thestreamthat flows intothe Amanzimtoti Bird Sanctuary.
“A member of the communitysent AfriForum photos taken ofthe stream on Thursday 17 July.Youcanclearlyseeanoilyproductand foam floating in the stream.AfriForum was reliably informedthat the guilty party is the manu-facturers of the Black Chic Hairproducts in the Southgate Busi-ness Park,” Fourie said.
“Ronnie Naicker from eThek-wini Pollution and Environmentconfirmed on Friday 18 July, viae-mail, that his department is re-sponding to the issue. However,AfriForum and the communitywill take on the problem them-selves.
“AfriForum will request theBlue Scorpions to take actionagainst the eThekwiniMunicipal-ity for failing in itsmandate to theAmanzimtoti community.”
AfriForum plans to hold pro-test action at the entrance ofSouthgate Business Park againstthe river pollution.

Gogo’s talent and determination>> She helps her family survive by making and selling the pigs and taking in sewing jobs
SETON THOMPSON>>[email protected]
AT 69 years of age and in con-stant pain, Gogo ElizabethMaphumulo could be for-
given if she resigned herself to self-pity, a victim of kidney illness andbackproblems.But,aresolutedeter-mination to provide for herself andher family is evident as this residentof Malangeni’s Nkombo section fin-ishes spraying a glossy finish onto agaily painted, papier-mâché pig.
Herhealthproblemsputanendto
her employment as a housecleanerso she helps her family survive bymaking and selling the pigs and tak-ing in sewing jobs, plus a govern-ment grant.
Elizabeth shares the twocottagesthat make up her homewith daugh-ter Princess, a caretaker at UmdoniRetirement Village’s frail-care facili-ty, unemployed granddaughterMelanie, three-year-old great-granddaughter Olwethu and Eliza-beth’s brother’s grandson, eight-year-old Ayamba Shange.
She and three colleagues wereshown how to make thepigs by Colin and RitaVennell from Umdoni Re-tirementVillage, forwhomshe used to work. She sellsthem as piggy banks or asornaments to a widening
market of admirers from surround-ing areas, and even abroad.Her col-leagues have since found full-timeemployment,butElizabeth ishere tostay as the lone entrepreneur.
Born in the Malangeni area shemoved to Amanzimtoti 50 years agobut returned home when fighting inthatareabrokeoutbetweentheANCand the IFP in the nineties. Sheworked at Selborne Estate for 11years, cleaning houses. She thenspent more than 12 years workingfor a variety of home owners atUmdoniRetirementVillagebefore illhealth forced her retirement in2013.
Depending upon size, Elizabethsells the pigs for between R40 andR55 each.
The multifaceted process takestime and shemakes them inbatches
of up to six, taking about two weeksto do so.
For those seeking toownone, shecan be reached on 084 757 6073.

Rapist, murderer gets life>> 10 years on housebreaking and kidnap charges, life for the rape and 15 years for murder
SETON THOMPSON>>[email protected]
SUCH was public interest in thehorrific case that not evenstanding roomwas available in
Scottburgh’s No 5 regional Court onMonday21JulyafternoonwhenMag-istrate Maboee sentenced 22-year-oldSizweThandoDlamini toa totalof47 years’ imprisonment. The gallerywas jammed with community mem-bers and the open spaces filled bypolice and court officials.
This followed the conviction ofDlaminionchargesofhousebreakingand kidnapping which were treatedby the court as one and on the sepa-rate charges of rape and murder. Inpractise, the time served will besignificantly lessas thesentenceswillrun concurrently.
The basis of the case was thatDlamini had broken into the victim’shome in Amandawe on the night of4/5 October 2013. The seven-year-old granddaughter was sharing aroom with her three-year-old sister.Whenthegrandmotherheardanoiseand investigated, she foundtheseven
yearoldmissing. Sixdays later, on11October, thechild’sbodywasfoundinthe local river. Subsequent investiga-tionshowed that shehadbeenraped.
InhissummingupMaboeequotedfrom case law when assessing theright balance between the executionof justice with the rights of the
defendant. In discussing the rape, heemphasised the court’s duty to en-force“therightto lifewhichissacred”and to protect the rights of women
and children to the sanctity of theirhomes.
All offencescarryprescribedmin-imumsentencesandMaboeepointedout that in the absence of abnormalcircumstances, latitude to imposelesser sentences are largely negated.
“I findthattherearenosubstantialand compelling circumstances andaccordinglypasstheprescribedmini-mum sentences,” he summed up.
These were 10 years on the com-bined housebreaking and kidnapcharges, a life sentence for the rapeand15yearsformurder.Thesentenc-es are concurrent and a senior policeofficertranslatedthatintoabout14or15 years assuming good behaviour.

Setting local comedyscene ‘on fire’
STEPH MCLENNAN>>[email protected]
KZN’s stand-up comedy scene has explodedover the past year or two, thanks in no smallpart totheworkof local funnymanJemAtkins,founder of On Fire Comedy.
Jem,who recently causedmany a stomachat the Grahamstown Festival to ache fromlaughter, is actually a shy guy, a dedicated dadand a “happily divorced” singleton.
Jem began his adult life working at an ITfirm for five years. Upon realising that thethought of doing that for the next 35 yearsmade a part of him die inside, he had a crazythought — what if he pursued a career thatmade him happy.

EditorialcommentCar show setsthe barTHE Scottburgh Classic Car Showhas again shown a healthy increaseof some 16% in terms of feetthrough the gates and cars andbikes on stage. No doubt, there willbe those who are dismissive of thisachievement, but one can suggestthey would be wrong.
The Umdoni region itself doesnot carry much weight in the big-ger picture, but it has potential tobe more. What the show demon-strates is that what started as oneman’s dream has been elevated ina short time by him and his col-leagues to national status. Theygalvanised enthusiasm and compe-tence to a high level as exists any-where else. If we have the will, itcan be replicated on a wider scale.
As jy niks goeds het om tesê nie, hou liewer jou mondEK lees van die opmerkings opsommige van die Facebook blaaiewat gestig is om die gemeenskapvan Amanzimtoti op te hef en tedien en kan net my kop inongeloof skud.
Wat party mense dink wan-neer hulle van die goedkwytraak, gaan my verstand tebowe.
Dit is duidelik dat die gemeen-skap in verskillende groepe ver-deel is en dit is klaarblyklik poli-ties gemotiveer.
Die snedige opmerkings enpersoonlike aanvalle is verbyster-end.
Ongelukkig is kritiek sonderwerkbare voorstelle vir oploss-ings of verbeterings waardeloos.
Daarom stel niemand eintlikbelang in jou opinie as jy niepositief kan bydrae nie.
Gemeenskap van Amanzimtoti— maak julle harte en oë oop ensien wat om julle aangaan en
maak julle monde toe.Almal staan reg om te kritise-
er maar wanneer daar moueopgerol en gewerk word, is daarslegs enkeles en altyd dieselfdeswat altyd aanmeld vir diens.
‘n Goeie voorbeeld is RaadslidAndré Beetge wat soveel kritiekin die plaaslike media sowel asop sosiale media platforms verd-uur.
En sy enigste “oortreding?” Hygee om vir sy gemeenskap endoen daadwerkliks iets om ‘nverskil te maak. Hy kritiseer enpraat nie net nie – hy doen.
Vir jou wat so graag kritiseerwil ek sê — gee minder kritiek enmeer krediet.
As jy niks goeds het om te sênie, hou liewer jou mond.Onthou, wat jy van ander sê, sêmeer van jou karakter as vanhulle s’n.

Response to ‘Passing buck’ letterIWOULDliketorespondtothearticle printed in the Fever 18July headed “Passing ‘beach-front buck’”.
As a local living in a build-ing opposite the beachfrontwhere the action happens,mayIclarifysomethingforthecouncillors fromUmdoni’s in-land areas.
Nobody wants to depriveanypersonorpersonsof theirright to enjoy the beachfront.However, what we do want isfor the loud, thumping musicto be controlled.
Letmeexplain—themusicstarts at around3pmonaFri-day, it can go through to 3am,
that is an effective 12 hours ofthumping music. Then on aSaturday afternoon it willstart again at the same time,and after many calls to ourSAPS, it may stop by 1am or2am. Then it starts again onSunday afternoon and afterrepeated calls to the SAPS, itmay stop by 10pm.
As for our tourists whobring much-needed revenueintoour town, thereareblack,coloured, white and Indiantourists visiting our town inthis building. On departure,they all comment about theloud music coming from thebeachfront.
On a bad weekend we canhave up to 29 hours of loudmusic. Surely we have a rightto enjoy our weekends with-out thisproblem.TheSAPSdorespond and have some suc-cess, they do not however,have the support of our mu-nicipality to assist with thisproblem.
Ihope this responsewill beread as positive, thatwhatweneed is not another racialcomment,butasapointof try-ing to assist in controlling themusic every weekend.

Recycling makesgreat ‘cents’DID you know that South Africa ranks amongthe top six countries worldwide in terms of re-cycling rates for cans.
Harry the Hominid, Maropeng’s spokesho-minid, says that today the can is the most suc-cessfully recycled primary packaging in SouthAfricawith beverage cans now only contribut-ing less than one percent of litter.
Recycling makes great “cents” says Harry.Notonlyisitagreatwayofsavingrawmaterialsbut it also reduces theneed for landfill. Did youknow for example that the volume of all cansrecoveredduring thepast10years (thismeansthe space these saved cans take up) equals thevolume of major landfill sites designed to ac-commodate all the rubbish of amajor city overa 15-year period.
Harrysaysthatrecyclingalsocreatesmuch-needed jobs formany unemployed and under-employed entrepreneurs who operate as col-lectors.Ofthe40 000peopleearningorsupple-menting their incomeby collecting, about 80%have no other formal means of employment.
Collect-a-Can is the company responsible
for the collection of cans and tins for recyclingin South Africa. It urges all parents to teachtheir children:
• to recycle both food and beverage tins;• to encourage everyone in the family to do
this, including friends; and• start a collection point at a local school,
shopping centre or community hall.“Remember every can recycled not only
helps the environment, but also helps alleviatepoverty,” says Harry.

Next stop, Hollywood>> ‘I’ll be going back to America to study at the New York Film Academy’
SONJA NELL>>[email protected]
LOCAL aspiring actressAngelique Janssen (18) fromAthlone Park, recently re-
turned from America with agrander perspective of theperforming industry and evenbigger dreams than before.
She attended the Applause Ris-ingTalentShowcase(Arts)inOrlan-do,U.S.afterbeingscoutedbyinter-national scouting agent KimMyersat a talent showcase atMonte Casi-no last year.
At the Arts, competing against400 hopefuls from around theworld, Angelique secured call-backs from Albany Talent in NewYork, TheNewYork FilmAcademyand Atlantic Records.
Sheoriginallyentered in theact-ing and modelling categories butdecided at the last minute to addsinging to her résumé in order toadd to her stage time and compli-ment her exposure in front of theagents.
“I only started singing threemonths ago therefore getting a callback from Atlantic Records was ahighlight for me.
“They are one of the largest re-cordingstudiosandrepresentwell-known names likeBrunoMarsandColdplay, therefore for me, it’s agreat honour,” she said.
The competitors did not onlycompete in competitions, but also
attended seminars andworkshopsby industry leaders. She felt partic-ularly inspired by James Pentaudifrom Albany Talent, New York.
“Jamesgaveadeeper insight in-to the industry and it was inspira-tional to hear things fromhis view-point. He shifted the paradigm thatthe industry is mainly cruel andheartlessandmademehopefulthatit can also be spiritual.”
According to her supportivemother Yvonne and sister Simoné,Angelique’s hardwork prior to andduring the competition paid off.
“During her preparation shedidn’t only focus on perfecting herperformances, she focused onthings like branding herself so thatshe demands attention. From herlook, to her business cards andportfolio, she offered a cohesivebrand,” Yvonne said.
If shedidn’t before, shedefinite-ly has her sights set on bright lightsof Hollywood now.
“I’ll be going back to Americanext year to study at the New YorkFilm Academy’s Los Angelesbranch,” Angelique said.
But for now, the young actresswho is also the reigning Miss KZNwilldedicatehertimetohonourhertitle and the charity work that goeswith it and also focus on finishingmatric.
Angelique would like to thankeveryone for their support and hercoaches for making this dreampossible.

cycles and related activities at ScottburghCountry Club on Sunday 20 July. This repre-sents about a 16% increase over the previous2013 record and emphasises how the Scott-burghClassicCarShow,nowinitsfifthyear,hassurged each year to become the region’s iconicevent across the country.
The town and region enjoys other massiveeventssuchasthetwo“2cs”—SaniandJoburg— and the Marine Expo, but the car show hasbeen born and bred here. What is more, likethem, it is well organised andmanaged and isacknowledged as among the largest and bestin the sub-continent, if not further.
What is more it dispenses a unique legacyeachyear—virtuallyeverycentit takesisspenthereand the largebalancegoes toourmostde-serving charities. It has created an economyofits own with the spin-off being enjoyed by ourhotelsandB&Bs,ourrestaurantsandpubsandour leisureandpleasuresectorsasmanyof thehundredsof visitorsmakeaweekendof it.Anda vast army of local volunteers, headed by the“sheriff”, the inexhaustible Peter Fielding,must get the credit.

What’s the point ofcomplaining?
THE Consumer Protection Act has given SAconsumers many rights and more powerswhen it comes to taking on suppliers over poorservicesordefectivegoods.Butwhenisitworthactually pursuing a complaint and is it betterthan going to court?
Consumer Goods and Services Ombuds-man, Advocate Neville Melville explains.
“Thenewcellphoneyou’vejustboughtstopsworking and the company refuses to replace itor the furniture you paid for was never deliv-ered.Inthepastyouwouldneededtogotocourtto get justice, but the Consumer Goods andServices Ombud (CG-SO)nowprovides a fo-rum to resolve com-plaints quickly and af-fordably.
“Dissatisfied cus-tomers can approachthe CGSO, which willinvestigate furtherand try to mediate asolution between allthe parties involved. If no agreement can bereached,aformalmediationtakesplace,wherethepartiesareinvitedtoputforwardtheircasesand amediator tries to facilitate amutually ac-ceptable settlement,” says Melville.
He says the size of financial losses is not theonly deciding factor that drives people to takea complaint further.
“We’ve had claims formillions of rands, butalso complaints about something as small as alitre of milk.”
Thebenefitsofseekingasolutionthroughanombud versus through the courts, is that con-sumers are likely to get faster resolution. Theaverage age of cases closed by the CGSO is 16days,while the average age of open cases is 74days.
“Thebest resultwehadwas fromaclothingretailer who agreed to a settlement within two
hours of the CGSO sending the complaintthrough,” says Melville.
Melville points out that evidence lies at theheart of informal dispute resolution.
“The type of evidence you would need tobuild your case would include till slip or proofof purchase, a high definition photo of the al-leged defect or copy of the brochure that thespecial was advertised in, for example.”
In another case, a jewellerwas consulted todetermine the cause of damages to a valuablenecklace and in other cases, items can be sentoff to the SouthAfricanBureau of Standards to
check whether goodsare up to standard.
“Factors thatwould not be consid-ered relevant duringmediation includehowmany other com-plaints the companyhas listed againstthem on websites,such as Hellopeter.”
The findings of theCGSOarenot binding oneither party, but if the issue is not resolved bythe ombudsman, parties are informed of theirright toapproachtheNationalConsumerCom-mission. Themajority of complaints, however,are resolved at the ombud level.
“While we cannot award damages, we canpersuadea supplier to do so, but if a cool-drinkbottle explodes and injures someone, as hasbeenreportedelsewhereintheworld,andtheywant R1 million, we would suggest they go tocourt.”
Thebenefitsof resolving the issueoutsideofcourt, however, are obvious.
“Mediationisfreeandlessintimidatingthanacourtoflaw,youdonotrequirelegalrepresen-tation, and you’re far more likely to come outwith a win-win solution.”

Ngaphezu kwalokho, sithe nanxa iNd-lovukazi uThomozile ingunina ngokwen-yama, ingunina wesizwe samaZulu onke,yingakho indlunkulu yakuthola kubalule-kile ukuvuma ukuthi unina angcwatshweendaweni okuzoba lula ukuthi wonkeumuntu afinyelele kuyona, hhayi njengaK-waNongoma ngoba kuseceleni.
Akungatshazwa ukuthi uM-khumbane Cultural and Herit-age Centre uzoheha abava-kashi abaningi bakulelilenasemhlabeni wonke jikele-le, ubuye uthuthukise nezin-ga lezomnotho.Akungats-hazwa futhiukuthi ku-zovulekaamathu-

Kodwa leli phupho elihle kangakalokuthuthukisa isizwe, lizophazanyiswaumkhuba omubi ongenele umphakathiwokuthi uma ungenelisekile yindlela uhu-lumeni abusa ngayo, bese ucekela phansiimpahla nezakhiwo.

Asiboni ngani ukuthi wuku-phindisela emuva umzabalazo ukuthi umasikhononda ngokuhamba kancane kwez-inhlelo zentuthuko, bese sicekela phansiizakhiwo. Lokhu kungukumosha isikhathinezigidi zemali.

Disabled facilitiesinadequate –InkanyeziFoundationSETON THOMPSON>>[email protected]
THE Inkanyezi Foundation, whichfocuses on the interests of disabled people,has presented the Umdoni Municipalitywith a number of issues which Inkanyezifeels pertinent.
Among them have been a suggestionthat a flea market be established on thesouth bank of the Mpanbanyoni Riverbetween the railway bridge and the R102,at least until the area is included as part ofa more permanent project.
Another area of concern is the lack oframps for wheelchairs on pavements inScottburgh and Umzinto and a reduction inthe steepness of the ramp near the phar-macy in Scott Street, Scottburgh.
At Rocky Bay there is need for a rampas well as better lighting and at Penning-ton, the ramp down to the beach, whilefine as far as it goes, ends in a drop to thevarying sand level.
A third focus point are the toilets for thedisabled in all municipal halls, virtuallynone of which meet specifications.

autofeverEtios crosses overto the wild side>> The Cross ready to enter the SUV market
COMBINING the rugged goodlooks of an SUV with the fluentdrive, fuel efficiency and ma-
noeuvre-ability of a hatch, the newToyota Etios Cross is ready to writeanother chapter in this budget-beat-er’s success story.
Speaking at the launch, GlennCrompton, vice president of market-ing, said: “The Etios delivers exactlywhat customers want – car-like effi-ciency and typical crossover stylingtraits at an affordable price. It marksour entry into yet another category inthe diverse and fast growing sub-Bsegment of the car market.”
The Etios Cross allows buyers totap into the tough image of an SUVwithout incurring the cost. With thefocus firmly on practicality and effi-ciency, the Cross is user-friendly,while possessing the added robustappeal of a crossover.
LikeitsbrothersintheEtiosfamily,the Cross has a 1,5-litre, quad-valve,four-cylinder, 66kW engine pushingout132Nmof torqueanda five-speedmanual gearbox. Key standard fea-
tures of theEtios rangeinclude elec-tric powersteering, airconditioning,power win-dows, a Dou-ble Din audiosystem withUSB and AUXports, ABS,EBD, dualfront airbags
and an immobiliser.In the Cross model, the interior
boasts a sleekdashboardwithpiano-black metallic finishes and chromedetailing around the air vents.
The masculine face of the EtiosCross is a result of the new grille de-sign that extends all theway into the bumpers,mimicking the appear-anceofbumperoverrid-ers. The chunky frontbumper is further en-hancedby oversized foglamps with integratedturn indicators and aribbed front scuff plate.Completing the frontend is a revised head-light cluster whichblends in with the newgrille.
Bringing up the rear,
the back door gets a stylish garnishstrip and amatte black bumper, cou-pled with prominent “puzzle piece”reverse light lenses.
Two new colours are exclusive tothe Etios Cross - inferno metallic (avivid orange) and jet grey metallic.

ASpart of its expanding footprint inSouth Africa, Mitsubishi Motors isgearing up for the debut of the all-new Mitsubishi Mirage in August2014.
Poisedtotakethefighttocompet-itors in the budget- and youth-fo-cusedA-segment, this stylishentry-level 5-door Japanese hatchbackprides itself on providing fuel effi-cient, enjoyable motoring coupledwith youthful appeal.
The Mirage range will consist ofthreemodels, allwith compact pro-portions hiding a surprisingly spa-cious vehicle which is an ideal eve-ryday run-around.
“Mitsubishi is renowned all overtheworldasoneofJapan’sforemostautomotive brands andwe are on aresurgence in the South Africanmarket,” commented Wynand Pre-torius, generalmanager atMitsubi-shi Motors South Africa.
“The Mirage is a fun little carwhich received an extremely posi-tive responsewhen itwasexhibitedat last year’s Johannesburg Inter-national Motor Show.
In these ever-increasingly diffi-cult economic times, itmakesall thesense in the world to introduce ournew supermini, which will be verycompetitively priced.”
TheMirage is targeted at amar-ket inwhichpurchaseprice, fuel ef-ficiency and cost of ownership playvital roles in the decision-makingprocess.
All new Mirage derivatives will
be powered by Mitsubishi’s1,2-litre, 3-cylinder MIVEC DOHCpetrol engine,mated toa five-speedmanual transmission.
“The vehicle will easily keep upwith the hustle and bustle of busycitystreetsaswellas theopenroadsso characteristic of South Africa,”explained Pretorius.
“TheMirageisalsoexceptionallyfuel efficient thanks toMIVEC–Mit-subishi Innovative Valve-timingElectronic Control.”
Average fuel economy on thecombined cycle is just 4,9-litres per100 km, allowing the Mirage topunch above its weight on the fuelefficiency front.
In fact, it isacclaimedasthemostfuel-efficient non-hybrid petrolvehicle available in the UnitedStates.
Impressive too is that theMirageis fitted with creature comforts likekeylessentryanda full complementof safety equipment including ABS,EBD and dual airbags as standard.

THE weekend of cycling startedoffwithRockyBayTrailshostinga brilliant night ride around
their track. Distances of 20kms and11kms were available to explore andtherewasagoodwarmbonfireandex-cellent food to warm the bones after-wards. Once again, it was enjoyed byall.
Saturdaymorning saw a fewMam-bas set out for a good, chilly, trainingrideatVirginiaFarm.Thegroupsrodeat a nice consistent pace, with only afew pauses during the ride. One beingGiovanni Rizza doing an endo over hisbars onanuphill. That is anewone forthebooks.Therewereacoupleofother
oopsiesontheride,justtomakeitinter-esting. Distances of 40kms to 60kmswere covered on this training ride.
There were two different rides onSunday. One was held in the morningat the track by Lords and Legends,where the guys did a good few loops offast riding. The track seems to provequite punishing when done at somespeed. The second ride left Scottburghbeach at 3pm led by Phil Barker. Heshowed the Mambas all of the newtrack that has been cut at Renishaw. Itis nice, rough and quite challengingtracktoride.Hethendecidedtostretchthebravadoofthegroupandtookthemon some hair raising, dusty, rocky
switchbacks in the near dark. Thegroup finally got back to the beach at6pm,withadrenalinerushing throughtheir blood, and a few war wounds tobrag about.
The Roadies did a great ride to theBluff.Theyaveragedaspeedofaneasy27km/h. There was a steady climb upMarine Drive with the reward after-wards of the flight down to Tara Road.They stopped for coffee at the BPgarage on Tara Road before makingtheir way home. That seems like thewaytodoaSundaymorningrideright.
