to Zimbabwe ZIMBABWE was looking to ex­port coal through Walvis Bay and had already supplied a trial load to a northern Namibian copper mine, Zimbabwean Minister of Mines Chris An­dersen said · in Windhoek yes" terday.

He told .a media briefing that closer links for exporting coal from the Wankie Collieries in westetn Zim­babwe "would make a lot of sense". Cunent coal exports are through Soulb ' Africa and Mozambique. .

, 'We might be bringing our coal to the Tsumeb (Consolidated Limited Copper Mine) smelters, and to cut costs, transport salt back to Zim­babwe," Andersen said.

A trial.1oad of coal had already been sent to Tsumeb: Andersen is on a week~long visit to mines in Na­mibia, and to discuss areas of mutual co-operation in mining with his Namibian countexpart, Andimba Toivo ya Toivo.

He said one area where Zimbabwe could learn from Namibia was in the field of uranium.

There had been uranium finds in Zimbabwe, and if they wer-e viable, expertise from Rossing Uranium mine near SWakopmund would be greatly valued. "Also your diamond market­ing expertise could be useful to us, " Andersen said.

Small mining development was one definite area in which Zimbabwe could aid Namibia. He said small miners had organised themselves well in Zimbabwe, were receiving gov­ernment assistance, and played an important role in the country. They helped decentralise Ibe economy, generated employment and contrib­ute to rural development, Andersen said. " And, of course, small mines can always become big mines."

NAMIBIAN Prime Minister aage Geingob has condemned the fatal shooting of 13-year-old Premarco Dunn by Namib­Jan Defence Force members at Rehoboth shortly after mid­night on Friday.

Premarco died instantly w4en he was shot in Ibe head while travelling in a bakkie in the Rehoboth district.

Three NDF members were anested in connection with the shooting and will appeat in court at Rehoboth today.

According to Namibia ' Police ,spokesperson Commissioner Siggi . Eimbeck, the men will face charges of mUrder. ' ,

-Spehlcing at aD. oc'casion in Wind­hoekori Saturday to mark the World Summit on Children, Geingob said those involved should "face the law". The law must take its course, the Prime Minister emphasised.

After the government's successful handling of the potentially explosive 'Diergaardt crisis' at Rehoboth, the shooting of the youth is expected to

'provoke a widespread outcry. Ac­_ cording to unconfinned reports, feel­ings over the incident were running high at Rehoboth at the weekend .. . Last night Premarco 's mother was

unavailable for comment. A relative of the Dunn family told

The Namibian a wake was being held at the home of Marilyn Dunn, mother of the deceased child, last night.

The relative described the young- . ster's death as "sudden and a cruel blow". Apparently Premarco was an only child.

Family members contacted by The Namibian were not sure of the exact circumstances surrounding the shoot-

mg. One said she believed there were five people in the bakkie, but thought Premarco was probably the only child in the vehicle.

According to police reports, the shots were allegedly fired by three men armed with AK-47 automatic rifles who claimed to belong to the NDF.

Earlier on Friday, four armed men wearing civilian clothes, but trav­elling in anNDF'V'ehicle, arrived at a farm looking for Isaak Cloete, right­hand man to former Rehoboth Baster Kaptein Hans Diergaardt.

Police said the bakkie that was fired on resembled Qoete 's vehicle.

• Meanwhile, i5 of the 17 men caught last week with large amounts of illegal arms at roadblocks in the Rehoboth area were granted bail on Friday, folloWing a bail application.

Steven Diergaardt, son of rebel Baster leader Hans Diergaardt, and a Diergaardt relative, Michiel Dier­gaardt, were among those held by the police.

Last week bail was refused be­cause it was believed that 13 of the accused might not stand trial at a ~ later date because of the absence of an extradition treaty between Na­mibia and South Africa. The 13 all gave residential addresses at Walvis Bay.

The 'arms bust' case is scheduled to be heard tomorrow. "

Children must point the way - Geingob

DA'OUD VRIES

THE Namibian government and its , lawmakers were committed to the rights of children, Namibian Prime Minister Hage Geingob said in his addIess on Saturday to rnarlt the World Summit for Children.

1he Saturday morning event started off with a march by children from Katutura to the government build­ings. Ina colourful display, hundreds of youngsters streamed down Inde­pendence Avenue bearing placards urging a better deal for ,children. Most sported special T-shirts to mark the occasion saying 'Children'sRights­Protection from Abuse and Neglect' .

The children 's event at the govern­ment buildings was also attended by ' a number of ministers, UN officials, foreignilignitaries and leaders of political parties.

The children who took part in the occasion appeared to enjoy them­selves and many gave the speeches a

miss as they played on the lawns in front of the buildings.

There was a noticeable absence of children from the white community, 'except for a few who attended the event with their parents.

Gein~ob, who was presented with a petition by the children; said it was not only the government's responsi­bility to show and deClare its com­mitment to the young ones, but it was also up to parents and teachers to provide good standards ofliving for their children.

He stated that it was no use having childrenjust to prove to the husband that you are a woman.

"The first responsibility starts with the parent, then the community and the government comes in at a later stage," Geingob said.

A SCHOLARSHIP of R4 000 went to two matric students from Otjiwarongo this weekend for their winning project at the Young Scientists National Exhi­bition.

A project on the denitrification of sewage earned Nelson Chipbio and A Shilumana of Paresis High School widespread praise for relevant and thoughtful research aimed at providing small villages with properly purified sewage water.

According to June Horwitz, educa­tion. officer at the Rtissing EducatIOn Foundation in Khomasdal where the exhibition was held, the scholarship will be split between the two boys, who are both interested in studying engi­neering at a higher level.

Students from Paresis High School did particularly Well at the exhibition, with another of their number claiming a prize for his project on Hydroponics.

Young scientists show exciting ·roads ahead

HydropOnICs, . as 18-year-old Filemon A waseb explained on Friday before the prizes were announced, is about growing plants in a quick way. "Everything the plant needs is dis­solved in its watering solution. You don't have to spray fertiIizers onto it; it's the most direct and cost-effective way of growing better plants· in a shorter time."

Awaseb said 'he had been working on . the project since last December, after listening to a ' speech by President Nujoma. "The President said we must improve our agricultural perfonnance for the sake of the economy. I started thinking how a country without very much water or arable land could put them to better use."

Over 320 Young Scientists projects were represented at the exhibition and prizes were awarded by Deputy Educa- . tion Minister Buddy Wentworth on Fri­day evening. There were various cate­gories sub-divided into age groups, in-

cluding a special Young Engineers Construction Project, introduced fOF the first time this year.

It resulted in the building of some 27 bridges which were being rigorously . tested by competition judges through­out Friday morning. The eventual win­ners were the second team from the Deutsche Hohere Privatschule, Wind­hoek, with the Technical High School Pionierspark second team as · runners up.

In the "Investigation" section of the competttton, Samantha MacIntyre from Centaurus with a project on sleep~

walking and sleeptalking took first prize: Herexhibition was chosen from a wealth of projects covering everything from ground squirrels to asthma.

• Renelle Schoeman and Ricco Bruck­ert, also Centaurus students, had theif o~n little pharmacy to help demon­strate their findings on asthma. "We're both astIima sufferers", said Ricco, "and this is just what we've .collected together from our own medical pre­scnptions! ..

Of the 400 survey fonns returned to the students in the course of their proj­ect, 50 indicated a problem with asthma. "That's as many as 12,2 per cent in Windhoek," said Renelle.

Speaking after the exhibition had closed, June Horwitz said she was very satisfied with the way the competition had' gone and pleased to see so many visitors during the two days.

Many of the exhibitions will now be transferred to the Alte Feste where they will be on display until January. • !Hopefully . people who missed the competition will be able to see the exhibition there," said Horwitz.

ALMOST 30 entries competed in the Young Engineers Construc~ tion Project. Here, the judges put one of the ' student-designed FILEMON Awaseb checks over his Hydroponics project at the Young Scientists National Exhibition

CassingaDay debate rages on in the NA

SWAPO'S insistence that Cassinga Day, May 4, be de­clared a public holiday sparked a heated debate in the National Assembly on Friday.

During a previous debate on the issue of national holidays, Swapo suggested that Ascension Day, which in the select committee on public holidays report was eannarked as a

. public holiday~ be renamed Ascen­sion-Cassinga Day.

Pendukeni Ithana (Swapo) told the House on Friday the reason the two days should be linked was because it was on May 4, 1978, which was incidentally Ascension Day, that the Cassinga massacre took place.

Ithana said the argument that, the recognition of Cassinga' Day as a public holiday was not m line with the government policy ,of 'national reconciliation was "morally bank-

rupt and must be thrown out .of the House with the contempt it deserved".

National reconciliation, she pointed out, was a philosophy and "can't erase'memories ... The public demands that Cassinga be declared a national holiday," !thana reiterated. .

Piet Junius of the DT A said he did not agree with the procedure being followed by the ruling party on the matter. It was common practice that the Assembly should refer ail issue not agreed upon to a select commit­tee. And if problems were experi­enced with the committee's report, it should be referred back to the com­mitteeagain.

JUnius accused Swapo of steam­rolling issues in the Assembly with the idea of outvoting other parties.

The DTA mans~d if Swapo con­tinued following this procedure, his party would reconsider its participa­tion,in select committees.

Early .Learning Centre launched· at Arandis

A NEW Early Learning Training Centre has been launched at Arandis tq upgrade the skills of· people working with pre-school children in Namibia.

The project, funded ,by Rossing Uranium Limited and headed by Lucy Lest~r of the mine's community development department, kicks off this week with a five-day Early Leam­ing Workshop - the first of several planned over the next. year.

Shell Namibia Limited is sponsor­ing this initial workshop which will offer a level of non-formal pre-school training previously unavailable in Namibia.

Two women from the A,randis

the two ministries hoped to co-oper­ate.

Andersen said while the countries had different miner.als, they used similar mining methods, and geol­ogy and mining engineering remained 'the same. Zimbabwe's school of mines and university were avaiiable to Na­nubian students "and we hope people in mining could come to Namibia to get hands-on experience, " Andersen

Playgroup have also been receiving training from the Early Learning Resource Unit in Cape Town.

The courses will involve no cost to the participants and will hopefully result,in a pool of pre-school trainers being established in this country. .

Fifteen women will take part in this course imd anyone interested either in participating in or sponsor­ing further courses is asked to con­tact the Early LeamiQg Training Centre at Arandis, telephone (06432) 289 ..

said Commenting on Andersen's visit, Toivo ya Toivo said he looked for­ward to future co-operation between the two countries.

"We hope very soon Walvis Bay will be in our hands so we can assist our neighbouring states which are landlocked," Toivo ya Toivo said.

The ministers also discussed co­operation in tourism and Toivo ya Toivo announced that Namibia's national airways, Namib Air, would start flying to Victoria Falls in south-

. em Zimbabwe shortly. - Sapa

In a seemingly defeatist approach. NPF leader Moses Katjiuongua said if Swapo wished to "aominate" the calendar with days associated with it, then "let it be".

Ben ·Ulenga (Swapo) said it was false that Cassinga Day was a party political day. The Cassingamassacre did not occur in the cont~xt of party politics. "The colonialists were des­perately trying to extinguish the na­tional cause, ' , Ulenga emphasised.

He pointed out that the Cassinga massacre epitomised all massacres perpetrated against th~ Namibian people by foreign forces.

Danie Botha of Swapo said it was in the name of Christiari civilisation that the SADF had dropped bombs on the Cassinga camp on the day of the Ascencion of Jesus.

Jannie De Wet (ACN) said if po­litical representives contimJed to dwell on and talk about the past, Namibi- . ans would not become a reconciled nation.

Katutire Kaura (DTA) said he did not have any objections with Cassinga Day being declared a public holiday,

.but warned that it should not appear ' as ifNambianhistoIy was being written by victors.

He suggested that a "common denominator" be found for all mas­sacres to be commemorated.

At the end of the debate, Prime Minister Hage Geingob suggested that Family Day be dropped from the calendar as a public holiday and that

, Cassinga Day be declared one.

World Summit on Children

Leaders give their blessing to plan to save world's young

THE United Nations Summit on Children brought together leaders as far . apart ideologically as American President George Bush and AlbanianPresi­dent Ramiz Alia to give their blessing to a plan to save the world's young from hunger, disease and other woes. '. Namibian President Sam Nujoma was among the 70 plus world lead~rs who attended the unique, day-long meeting on Sunday, initiated by the leaders of Canada, Egypt, Mali, Mexico, Pakistan and Sweden.

It produced the approval by consensus of a Declaration and Plan of Action to improve the health, welfare, safety and education. of children the world over. Only last week President Nujoma said as part of the Namibian govern­ment's policy on children, "it is not enough to put a signature ~ the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child", and the summit agreed that many child deaths .could be easily prevented with existing cures and remedies costing next to nothing.

Some of the ambitious targets discussed were the reduction by oI).e-third of mortality rates among children under five years old by the ye~ 2000 and the halving of maternity death rates.

Universal access to safe drinking water and to sanitary means of waste disposal was another aim, as is Universal access to basic· education and completion of elementary education by at least 80 per cent of primary school-age youngsters.

But many other concerns surfaced in the speeches of the world leaders. " The children of Kuwait are being subjected to agony and hardship. Their

mothers are being tormented and violated," said the Emir of Kuwait, Sheik Jaber. Al-Alunad Al-Sabah, exiled by the August 2 Iraqi invasion of his country.

Czechoslovakia's President Vaclav Havel said he wanted to see the world's children protected from dictators. "I saw Hitler waving in a friendly way to fanaticised little girls of the Hitlerjugend. I saw the mass murderer Stalin kissing a child ... I saw Iraqi President Saddam Hussein patting the children of his hostages, ., Havel said.

With the conference limited to Heads of State or government, many nations were not represented although their Foreign Ministers were attend­ing the UN General Assembly. Only a handful of Asian leaders, including Bangladesh and Japan, and none of the heavily-populated countries of China and India were represented. The Declaration and the Plan of Action was formally submiued to the General Assembly yesterday.

THE southern region of Namibia, as well as Caprivi, had ~n singled out as priority areas for drought relief. A joint press statement yesterday by the Ministry of Lands and Resettlement and the CCN's RRR Committee, reacting to accusations about the drought aid programme, said food distribution had started in these two. regions and would be spread to others in due course.

The statement added that after a Presidential group investigated the extent to which the country had been affected by drought, the Ministry had embarked on a: drought relief programine in co-ordination with the RRR. The National Drought Relief Committee is centrally responsible for decision-making and food was brought to central areas, such as Windhoek, from which it was dis­tributed to warehouses in Keetman­shoop and Katima Mulilo. . The Ministry said beneficiaries had been identified and registered and final distribution and control of food lay with the local committees com­posed of the people themselves.

. "This programme is directed to the drought-stricken cbmmuDities and does not at all take into account po­litical affiliations," the statement added.

and the child's duty was to auend them.

"You have not only got the right to be provided for, but it is your duty to attend classes, to be guided, " Gein­gob said, addressing himself to the children. . .

He said the children of Namibia should march together to show a mOl!: mntied nation.

The gove~ent was aware of the problem of creating dependency and supported the Food for Work prin­ciples, excePt when it applied to small children under six years, severely ruindicapped persons, those in ad­vanced pregnancy and· early lacta­tion, advanced age, or those who were ill. These categories of people get their food rations on a free basis.

The projects. the statement added. should be seen as community self­help schemes, and not as 'food as salary'.

In the Omega, Bagani, Tsintsabis and Tsumkwe areas, several groups left destitute as a result of SADF

, withdrawal, were being assisted by the government and the LWF.

Finally, the statement said the Drought Relief Programme would run as an emergency venture running for six months.

The Prime Minister also said par­ents should only have children if they could afford them.

"How can somebody concentrate in a class ifhe/she is hungry ~dhave walked a distance to attend classes?" he asked.

A good family life was needed for a stable community and a good gov­ernment, he added.

Unfair to aliens I WOULD like to reply to the recent Aliens Act in connection with non­Namibian citizens working and liv­ing in Namibia. I feel the govern­ment is unfair and has forgotten that many 'non-Namibian citizens' who moved to Namibia in the past five years, came to Namibia because they -wanted to, certainly not because of the high cost of living and low sala­ries!

This means that they love the coun­try and want to stay. Many of them left South Africa because they did not agree with what was happening there. Why is the government so insistent on enforcing an Aliens Act for people ' not here less than five years, when the majority of people are South African citizens? Is the government forgetting that everyone was on South African passports and South African citizenship before independence, and does this not apply to govemment-employed staff as well?

Why have they not offered that people wanting to remaininNamibia or have been inNamibia since before

independence, gain Namibian citi­zenship? I agree that people who do not want to stay in Namibia should not be allowed citizenship, but why has the government not offered people who were and are living in Namibia, the choice?

It seems to me that this Act, iike in all other independent African coun­tries, is aiming to oust the white population so as to allow for their black population, but what they also forget is that many Namibians are holders of German citizenship. What of them? Will they be asked to relin­quish their German citizenship for Namibian or will they be allowed to keep both? That seems to be unfair.

What of the black people who were brought in for the elections and who were living out of the country for many years? I suppose the govern­ment will give them Namibian citi­zenship. So tell me, where does the fairness come in and the new constitution? Surely citizenship should be awarded to people who were in Namibia at the time of independence and have stayed, to build their fami­lies and the Namibian economy.

How long will 'white' and 'black' people have to go against each o~er? Just because one is 'white' in colour and the other 'black', if we are born in Africa then we are all Africans. Or will Africa only belong to black people? What of the 'white' Afri­cans? Are we to become an African race that has nowhere to go or belong to? DOes the government feel that if they get rid ofnon-Namibians (what­ever that may mean) there will be more jobs available? The fact is that there is so muchunskilled labour, not because the possibilities to better oneself were not there.

Would it not be better to keep skilled labour to teach the unskilled? Or does the government want acoun­try full of unskilled labour rather than aliens or ex-South Africans just because of their race or colO!'-? Surely if this is so, then how can our new country, Namibia, possibly hope to become an independent and economi­cally prosperous country?

Education Issues I WOULD like to address myself to the question of problems in educa­tion. Many teachers, especially those in rural areas, suffer a' lot regarding education. Their syllabi do not arrive on time and there are not enough courses for them.

During the colonial era, some of the inspectors, principals and teach­ers were employed only because they had contacts in the government, but in reality they didn't know how to do

. a proper job. . At this stage English is the me­

dium of instruction and my appeal to the Ministry of Education and Cul­ture is that we need more courses for inspectors (school inspectors) and principals. Some inspectors do not know how to control the schools in their circuits or what to do with let­ters from the Department of Educa­tion; and principals often don't know how to explain departmental direc­tives to their teachers because they do not get proper information from· school inspectors. In recent times, there were no mOre book catalogues, _ and some teachers didnotknow what books to use in their various stan­dards. I know that many people in education were trained in Afrikaans and I request them to keep reading the transitional policy guidelines state­ment on education and training in the new Namibian Republic.

unification - like Namibian independ­ence - would not have been possible without the recent shifts in world politics, and praised Soviet Presi­dent Mikhail GOJ:bachev for the "very important" role he played. "With­out the changes in the Soviet Union, we would not have achieved German ' unification at this stage," said Ganns.

people of belonging to one nation should still be so strong, the ambas- ' sador added.

With Namibia having strong his­torical, economic and diplomatic ties with, both Germanies, the ripple ef­fects of German unification are bound to be felt here. But FRG ambassador and German ambassador-in-waiting Harald Ganns believe Namibia will Leap benefits from the "miraculous" events in Germany. , '

For starters, German aid to Na­mibia and other developing coun­tries would not suffer as a result of unification, Ganns said at the week­end.

In fact, unification could signal an increased flow of development aid. , , 'There is no doubt that countries in the industrialised world will save a lot of money in forthcoming years because security willbe nruch cheaper.

"The defence budgets of some of . the industrial states will be drasti­

cally reduced, so in the long and medium run, Third :WorId countries can oI)ly profit by these ' develop­'ments." '

, Technically, from mithnght tonight the GDR will be absorbed into the FRG. But Ganns promised that the new united German govemmeot would take on commitments the old gov­ernment of the GDR had with Na­mibia, in particularconceming those

"Of course we will take care of them," said Ganns. "And when they return to Namibia (after their stud­

, ies) we will try to help them to be reintegrated in society, the same as we do with our scholarship holders. "

The German government would also honour its "responsibilities" towards Namibian children wOO stayed intheGDR "as long as the Namibian government asks us to", said the ambassador.

the collapse of the country's one­party dictatorship and the eventual removal of the barriers between East and West. Events started to snowball inJuly 1989 when more than 50000 East Germans fled to the West. Popu­lar protest within East Germany es­calated on October 7 after thousands of demonstrators opposed to the gov­ernment interrupted celebrations marking the 40th anniversary of the' founding of the GDR.

Two days later an estimated 100 000 people marched through the East German city of Leipzig and, after other similar demonstrations else­where in the country, GDR Chancel­lor Erich Honeclrer was remOved from the post he held for 18 years.

On November 4, around one mil­lion people marched through East Berlin. Three days later the govern­ment resigned and on November 9 the Berlin WaU- the infamous stretch of border barrier' between the two Gerinanies • was opened.

By February this year the Foreign Ministers of the Soviet Union, Frilrice; Britain and the United States started unification talks with their counter­parts from the GDR and FRG and, following elections in the GDR in March, the two Germanies agreed to the formation of a monetary, eco­nomic and soci81 union on July 1.

Then on August 23, the GDR par- ' liament (people's Chamber) resolved to accede to the FRG on October 3, and the unification treaty was signed on August 31.

After midnight tonight, Germany will be ruled by 'a parliament made

, up of all members of the FRG Bun­destag and 144 members of the People's Chamber until the unifica­tion process is completed in Decem­ber with the bolding of elections to appoint members to the new German Bundestag. Although Berlin is ',des­tined to become the capital of the unified GefIl1.any; the newparlia­ment must still decide whether or not it will move there or remain in Bonn,

He stressed that the treaty abol­ished Article 23 of the old constitution which called for former German ter­ritories - which the ambassador pre­sumed included Namibia as well as parts of Poland - to be reincorporated

He also paid tribute to the East German masses for their courage in staging the "peaceful revolution". "We should never forget when we get this unification that we have a lot to owe to the people of the GDR. "

And it was astonishing to think that after so many years of separa­tion, the feeling among the German ,

Unification was going to bring about problems, Ganns admitted, in par­ticular unemployment for East Ger­mans - something which was un­heard of under the old GDR regime.

"But, in spite of that, the over­whelming majority of Germans on both sides wanted this unification and wanted it quickly." Tomorrow was the day "we were dreaming of for almost 40 years", said G~.

Diary of an Aids statistic

WOULD you shake hands with, embrace or kiss someone infected with the Aids virus?

If you would, then what I write in this article does not apply to you.

If you wouldn't, then you are suf­fering from one of the worst sick­nesses to affect the human race -prejudice. . I was sitting with some friends, taking some beers at one house the other weekend when the tQPic of . discussion turned to Aids. One friend said, quite seriously, that people with Aids were "potential murderers" . . Another agreed and said Aids su ffer­ers should be sent to a special camp, locked up and isolated from unin­fected people.

They didn't explain, but I know Why they said these things. They be­lieve that those of us with Aids go around having sex with people in or­derto deliberately spread the virus. They also see us as inferior; they think we got Aids by sleeping around and therefore it was our own fault. I guess my friends see us in the same light as, for ex­ample, they see prostitutes.

Well, I tell you, my sexual exploits were nothing com­pared with those of my friends who said we Aids suf­ferers were poten­tial killers. Inever had a sexual rela­tionship with any girl other than the one I was seeing at any given time, '. and yet I still caught Aids. , My friends d~'t know I am in­fected with Aids, and their attitude proves why I can't tell them. If they knew I had Aids, they would not want to come near me, so I have to ,keep it a secret. Not that I want to. It's no fun leading a secret life which you can't tell anyone about ... living as if you were some kind of fugitive, undercover in your own home. But people's prejudices are so great, we just can't afford to tell anyone except perhaps our closest friends and rela­tives, and even that is not always possible. Instead, we have to listen to all this shit that people come out with - such as saying we are "potential

murderers" - and we have to keep quiet.

Don' t you see, 'everyone has the ability to murder someone eise, but

, that doesn't make the entire human race potential murderers. If you think of the entire population of Namibia, and then count the'mimber of people who commit murder, then you are dealing with a minute section , of society. So, too, if you take those with Aids, oniy the exceptional few will actually carry on hl)ving sex. The rest of us accept that sex is now out of the question, and we change our lives accordingly, no mafter how painful and hard that might be. We do so because, like any nonna! human being, we don't want to be respon­sible for anyone else's death, so we make the sacrifice:

Of course there will be the rare case of someone with Aids still hav­ing sex after they ' have been tested positive, just ·as 'some members of the community coron':. crimes. In the same way as you take precautions against getting killed or being robbed, by locking your house at night, you guard against Aids by making sure you don't have casual sex without using a condom. .

You wouldn't call your brother, neighbour or even a stranger in the street a "potential murderer", so why refer to us in that way? There is no way we can infect you through ordinary, day-to-day contact. I sleep in the same bed as my girlfriend, we kiss, we cuddle, we hold hands, but there ' s no way I can give her Aids.

The only way I will·pass on the virus is through having sex, so we don't have sex. If! cut myself, I make sure I cover up the wound and keep the blood away from any open wound she or anyone else who is around might have. We don't use the same toothbrush or razor·(wp.o does?), so there is no chance of passing on in­fected blood that way.

''Therefore, why should people treat us like outcasts? You don't treat cancer patients like that? Cancer patients re­ceive lots of sympathy and well­meaning charitiei give huge amounts of money towards research into how to cure the disease. So why does the same not apply to those of us with Aids? •

Oh, because we caught Aids by having sex? But sex is more natural

than smoking (the main cause of cancer). Aids is everyone ' s con­cern; sex has be­come normal be-' haviour for all but the very old, the very young and the very holy (and not even all the latter - just take Alan Boesak as a very public example).

We need your sympathy and un­derstanding just as do cancer patients and anyone else suffering from a terminal illness. We can - and will - make a bigger contribution to life in the years we still have left to live

than many of the seif-rigbleous people who sit around and talk about us as if we were lepers.

And remember, with Aids spread­ing so quickly through Namibia, it is very likely that you already have regular contact with someone infected with the Aids virus, be it at work, in the village or neighbourhood you live in, or at the club or a braai. Even some of your closest friends could be infected, so bear that in mind the next time you insult us.

Racism is not the only form of discrimination. Discriminating against people because of their colour is evil - and illegal. The same should apply to predjudice against someone with Aids, and for any other' 'condition" you might think of.

GULF CRISIS

'Humanitarian gesture' , ,

. from besieged Saddam NICOSIA: Iraqi President Saddam Hussein followed up a call for dialogue i~ the Gulf crisis on Monday by releasing nine Frenchmen held as human shields against attack from US-dominated forces massing in the region.

The official Iraqi news agency INA said Saddam, whO has welcomed parts of a peace proposal floated by French President Francois Mitterrand, had ordered the releases as a "humani­tarian gesture".

But France, which has told Sad­dam that he must pull out of Kuwait and release all hostages as a first step to a settlement, said it was 'not en­gaged in any negotiations with Iraq over the Gulf crisis.

"There is nothing between France and Iraq which could be described as negotiations," presidentil!cl spokes­person Hubert Vedrine said.

Saddam, who called for early dia­logUe 'on Sunday in a message to mark the birth of Islam's Prophet Mohammed, is defiantly refusing to bow to international demands that he pull out of Kuwait. _

World markets, which have fluc­tuated violently with each tum of the Gulf crisis, reacted little to Saddam' s

.latest gesture. US President George Bush, who

responded to Iraq's August 2 inva­sion by ordering the biggest Ameri­can military buildup since the Viet­nam war, has moved against Iraq through the United Nations.

Bush has pushed througlt a tough package of trade and oil sanctions

but has not ruled out a military strike against Iraq. He addresses the UN General Assembly on Monday.

Over the past three days, he has had talks with 20 world leaders, in­cluding British Prime Minister Mar­garet Thatcher and the leader of Brazil, once a major arms supplier to Iraq.

British officials said Britain and the United States were considering seeking a UN resolution to demand reparations from Iraq for damage inflicted on Kuwait which it annexed '

, on August 8. Foreigners and Kuwaitis fleeing

the super-rich emirate say it has been systematically stripped of all that is valuable, from computers to con­crete paving slabs.

Iraq said the nine Frenchmen would leave with members of a Franco­Iraqi friendsliip group which had been visiting Baghdad. Almost 100 French­men, most of them former Kuwait residents, are believed held with other Western and Japanese hostages at strategic military and economic in­stallations in Iraq.

France,once a friend and major , arms supplier to Iraq, has ordered 13

000 troops to the Gulf. A Fresh con­tingent arrived in Saudi Arabia on Monday.

Almost 300000 Western and Arab

troops, most of them deployed in Saudi Arabia, are digging in opposite an estimated 400 000 Iraqis.

Saddam's call for an early dia­logue on Sunday included none of the fiery war Jb:toric of recent speeches and messages.

"If dialogue replaces threats and the policy of peace replaces that of military build-ups we will not dis­pute where the starting point should be," he said.

But the message, read for him on Iraqi television, repeated demands categorically rejected by the United States and its European and Arab allies. '

. Saddam described as positive ele­ments of a peace proposal outlined by Mitterrand to the UN General Assembly last week.

"Despite our objections (to some of the contents) we feel the French president's address is different in its language from others. We hope our positive. conclusion is correct."

Mitterrand declared "everything would be possible" once Iraq with­dre~ from Kuwit.it. He proposed a four-stage process to resolve not only the Gulf crisis but also the Middle East's other problems, including Palestinian demands for an independ­ent state.

'ZambianMMD calls for interim govt

no Rebel Taylor is another dictator says new leader FREETOWN: The head of a Liberian interim govern~ent said Charles Taylor, leader of the country's biggest rebel group, is a dictator and no improvement over slain president Samuel Doe.

"What is all the suffering about when thousands of people die only to change one dictator for another?" Amos Sawyer told a news confer­'ence in Freetown, the Sierra Leone capital, on Sunday night.

"If Taylor wants to run Liberia under continuing armed control then let him show us where he is different from Samuel Doe. "

Forces of breakaway rebel leader Prince Johnson captured and killed Doe three weeks ago after a shootout with Doe's bodyguards.

Sawyer, a Liberian attorney, was chosen in August to head an interim government formed under auspices of the Economic Community of West African States (Ecowas). ,

He said he hoped to travel to Libe-

ria soon to take control despite the collapse of a week-long cease-fire.

"1he interim govenuneilt will soon enter into Liberia and at present there are logistical arrangements under way for their arrival," he said. , The interim government, which

groups a half dozen Liberian politi­cal parties; was created by Ecowas to serve until elections can be held.

Tay lor, who launched an insurrec­tion in December, opposes a 6 000-strong peace force sent to Liberia by Ecowas and has declared himself president of the West African nation founded in 1847 by freed American slaves. '

Taylor has said he will hold elec­tions in the 90 per cent of the country he claims to control on October 10.

Big EC money for African forests

BRUSSELS: 1he Europe'an Commu­~ty's Executive Commission gave 32 million dollars <Xl Mooday to protect the threatened tropical rain forest of central Africa, second largest in the world after the Amazo~ basin.

, depleted.

The money was for conservation projects over three years in seven countries at the heart of the rain ' forest - Cameroon, Central African RepUblic, Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, Sao Tome and Principe and Zaire.

• 'The, necessary surveillance and management of these areas will be strengthened; activities ... by the ex­isting population will be developed ina way compatible with the mainte­nance and strengthening of the forest ecosystems," the statement said.

AnEC spokesperson said the proj­ects aimed to preserve the forest while allowing local populations at its edges to exploit timber and other resources

, 'We feel the commission's action is quite timely.

"They are getting in there in tirrie with preventative rather than emer­gency action," WWF tropical for­ests conserv ation officer Chris Elli­ott said in a telephone interview.

The WWF estimates that up to 1,2 per cent of the forest is being de­stroyed each year, wiping out thou­sands of plant and animat species and c:ontributing to global warming.

The cash for the projects came ' from funds left over from the third Lome Convention, a five-year trade and aid treaty between the EC and 68 African, Caribbean and Pacific de­veloping countries which expired in February.

THE NAMIBIAN ' Tuesday October 2 19909

New co-operation between· Namibia and Botswana

TilE governments of Namibia and Botswana have agreed to co-operate in several important fields folloWing talks held between officials from the ministries of Works, Transport and Telecommunica­tioDSof, the two countries.

The delegations were led by Minis­ter of Works, Transport and Commu­nications Richard Kapelwa Kabajani and his Botswana counterpart, CJ

. Butale. In a joint communique released after

the talks the two governments agreed to co-operate fully in the implementa­tion of several projects.

. Officials from the aeronautical authorities of Namibia and Botswana drafted a bilateral air servic~s agree­ment for the implementati6n of air . services between the two countries . .

It was agreed to continue existing flights between Windhoek and Maun three times weekly. In addition, direct jet services would commence between Windhoek and Gabarone on 1 No­vember 1990.

'Ibis new jet service, linking the two capitals and featuring close co­operation betweeen the two national airlines, would be operated initially by Namib Air~s Boeing 737, and.by Air Botswana's BAE 146 from early 1991.

These new services would enhance tourist and business links between the two c~lUntries and also provide im­prC?ved connections to other capitals wi~ the SADCC region.

lbe two delegations also agreed to

explore means to promote co-opera­tion in technical and other fields of air transportation between the two desig­nated airlines and the aeronautical authorities, . It was further noted that officials of

the departments of Civil Aviation of Angola, Botswana and Namibia met previously to discuss and agree on technical matters related to the im­plementation and .operation of a new flight InfonnatiQll Regim which would enable Botswana to take over control of its airspace. .

. The two govemments agreed to start working towards the realisation of the Trans-Kalahari railway project.

To this end past stud!.es would be . reviewed in line with the new interna­tional developments.

In the areas of road infrastructure development and telecommunications co-operation the two agreed. to co­operate on the implementation of the following projects:

... Construction of the Trans-Kalahari highway from Gobabis to Buitepos in Namibia and from Mamuno, Gantsi, to Jwaneng in Botswana.

... Construction of the Trans-Ca­privi highway including cross border links between Bagani in Nambia, Shakawe in Botswana, and also be-

tween Katima Mulilo in Namibia and . Kasane in Botswana.

... !< new fuasibility study for a bridge across the Zambezi river covering an extendedcatchrnent area from Kazan­gulu to Katima Mulilo in view of the new scenario brought about by the independence of Namibia.

The implementation of these proj­ects was, however, dependent on funding being made available and the two parties agreed to pursue this ob­jective ouall fronts.

In addition, they agreed on mutual co-operation in the field of highway engineering and road research, in­cluding trai.Oing.

'The t""'o governments also agreed to announce their intention to con­struct a Trans-Kalahari Digital Micro­wave Link. ·

'Ibis link. which would extend from Jwaneng via Gantsi to Windhoek, wwld provide direct high grade telecommu­nication services between the two countries and would fonn the furthest south-western extension of the Panaf­tel Network.

The two governments further agreed that the microwave project would commence as soon as possible and that they were now seeking funding for it. .

Reggie en Rukoro se'pos!sies in gedrang

Gekoordineerde plan teen Swapo ontbloot

DRIB soldate van die Namibiese Weermag is gister in hegtenis geneem na die skokkende dood van 'n 13-11~rige seun, Premarco Dunn. wat oor die naweek in 'n skietvoorval noo-

. dlottig gewond is. Die voorval het naby Rehoboth plaasgevind.

die Rehoboth-distrik op reis was. Die voorval het kort na middemag pla-. asgevind. Na wat verneem word, het drie soldate op die bakkie losgebrand.

Die skietvoorval kan klaarblyklik aan 'n besoek Vrydag deur die Namibiese Weermag aan die plaas van Isaak (Tievoet) Cloete gekoppel word. Cloete is een van Hans Dier­gaardt se regterhande en was aan sy sy in die Rehoboth-opstand wat ver­lede week in die kiem gesmoor"is.

DIE anti-Swapo-psigose wat verlede jaar met die onafhanklikheidsverki­esings 'nhoogtepunthereikhet,gaan weer na yore tree nadat die ses op­posisie-partye in die Nasionale Ver­gadering (NY) onlangs in die geheim byeengekom het om teen die reger­ende party te monster.

Focus het tydens die naweek vern­eem dat 'n politieke bedmaat-soek­ery aan die gang is en dat daar druk aSter die skerms 'saanigesweer' word in die lig _van die komende streeks­en munisipale verkiesings.

In die proses is daar reeds tentan­tief 'n komitee van die opposisie­partye gestig wat ondersoek moet instel oor presies hoe Swapo by die stembus in die komende verkiesings gestuit kan word.

Voigens hetroubare inligting is al ses partye betrokke. Hulle is die DT A van Dirk Mudge, die NNF van v: ekuii Rukoro, die UDF van Justus Garoeb, die ACN van Kosie Pretorius, die FCN van Hans Diergaardt en die NPF van Moses Katjiuongua.

Die betrokkenheid van die UDF en NNF in die nuwe anti-Swapo-&ont met onderskeidelik Reggie Diergaardt en Rukoro in die Swapo-kabinet as adjunk -ministers, het die wenkbroue laat lig in politieke kringe.

Die UDF en NNF se betrokken­heid by die anti-Swapo-front -kan daartoe lei dat die twee uit hul poste geskop word omdat hulle politieke basisse steeds saamspan teen die regerende party.

Diergaardt en Rukoro kan maklik nou in Swapo-kringe beskou word as 'politieke verraaiers 'en druk kan op President Sam Nujoma geplaas sal ' word omhulle met 'nkabinet-skom­meling te verwyder.

Volgens Focus se bron word veral die verkiesings op streeksvlak deur die ses opposisie-partye in 'n ern­stige fig gesien omdat 'n oorwinning daar kan sorg dat Swapo se palitieke mag uitgebalai1seer sal word. . Uitdie streeksverkiesings, wat sal

geskied op die basis van kiesafde­lings, sal die belangrike tweede huis van die Parlement gevomi word, wat hekend sal staan as die N asionale

- Raad(NR). Wetgewing wat deur die NV gevoer

word, moet ook deur die NR gaan alvorens dit na die President gestuur ~ord vir ondertekening en promui­gering. Dit beteken dat Swapo baie politieke frustrasies sal optel indien die tweede huis deur_die anti-~wapo­groep gedomineer word. . .

Indien die opposisie-partye die streeksverkiesings inpalm, beteken dit boonop ook dat die tweedevlak­owetbede die eerstevlak-gesag harde hene kan laat kou.

Dis die hesef wat die anti-Swapo­groepreeds in top rat laat s,it het om noual tande te slyp vir die streeks- en m~sipale verkiesingli, wat reeds aanstaande jaar kan plaasvind.

Hoewel die ses partye S~ kwaai opdr--dende in die komende verkies­ings wil gee, is hulle nie sonder probleme nie.

Die DT A bet die grootste probleme, aangesien die konglomeraat net nie V,an sy sterk etniese bande ontslae lean raak sonder dat hy 'n taamlike

PIUS DUNAISKI

politieke prys sal moet betaal nie. Geluide van die DT A se -¥nt om

by die grondwetlike grondver­skuiwings aan te pas en 'n enkele struktuurte vorm, het in die afgelope . maande al sagter geraak.

Die politieke realiteit dat 'n omskep­ping in 'n enhlle strukluur en afskaffing van die 'etniese partytjies' probleme kan oplewer, het tot die DT A se leiers deurgedring.

'Etniese' leiers soos Geelbooi Kashe, Max Haraseb en andere in die DTA bet, na wat vemeem word, besef dat hulle in die vergetelheid kan verdwyn en dat hulle vervang kan deur 'leiers ' soos Kenneth en Ottilie Abrahams, Nora Chase, Albert KrOhne, wat uit NNF-kringe na 'n 'etnieslose DTA' mik.

Dis te betwyfel of die veteraan­politici, wat groot minagting vir die etniese politiek koester, ooit by 'n etnies-georienteerde DT A sal aans-luit. .

Brame in die DTAbet die afgelope tyd kommer uitgespreek oor die etni.ese driffie waarby die DT A gaan vas sit het, aangesien dit die hele 'sames­meltingsproses' waarby ook die NPF en ander betrek was, belemmer .

Dit verldaar oak: waarom die Swapo­uitgewekene, Andreas Shipanga van -Swapo-D-faam, liefs onlangs by die NPF aangesluit bet nadat hy vroeer vreeslik na die DTA gevry het. 'n Etniese DT A kan net nie 'n opsie vir hom wees me.

Wenkbroue is 'ook verlede week gelig toe Herero-opperlwof-Kuaima Riruako, president van~do, wat as die ruggraat van die DT A beskou word, oor die Diergaardt-kwessie op Rehobothlynreg met die DTA in die openbaar verskil het.

Sy uitsprake word gesien as 'n - verleentheid vir die DT A asook 'n

sterk aanduiding dat hy en die DT A , van mekaar wegdryf .

In die politieke wandelgange is dit al 'n ,bekende feit dat Riruako reeds by Diergaardtwas vir samesprekings 'oor die moontlikheid dat die Herero­sprekendes van die orA sal wegbreek en met ander meer etniese geo­rienteerde groepe 'n nuwe alliansie kan skep, wat die DT A sal vervang.

Daar is reeds 'n diep ongelukkigheid van die Herero-sprekendes se kant met di/il DT A omdat net twee parle­mentariers uit die gemeenskap in die NV vir die DTA staan. Hulle is Fan­uel Kozonguizi en Katuutire Kaura.

In die proses kan gewese AG 8-vriende mekaar opsoek, meen waar­llemers.

Die toutrekkery en dispuut in die NNF is ook iets wat op 'n vreemde . wyse stilgeraak het. -Die probleme waarmee die DTA worstel ~t 'n regstreekse invloed op die NNF in die dat niemand meer hard stoot nie.

Die wegbrekers van die NNF, onder leiding van die Abrahams-egpaar wat na die DTA gemik het, is voor 'n keuse gestel om Of by "n etniese lidparty van die DT A aan te sluit, Of om weens strategiese redes , voor­lopig plat te Ie tot die woelinge hulself uitgepluis het. .

Intussen het Gusty Graig van die , NOP reeds spore daar gemaak o.mdat

hy nie .tuis voel met die NOP-Ieier­skap nie. Hy het hom by Swanu aangesluit.

Nora Chase, wat in die politieke kruisvuuruitSwanugeskopis,hetby die onbeduidende NNF-lidparty, Mmambatho People's Party, aang­esluit net om te verseker dat sy in die NNF se hoofbestuur kan aanbly en . haar gewig teen Rukoro kan inspan

-indien die 'skietstilstand' veIbreek word.

In nog 'n politieke verwikkeling het Katjiuongua onlangs in 'n poging om polities nie onder te gaan nie '

derde briewe gepos na posbus­houers waarin hy baie openlik geld en lede soek. Sodanige optrede kan as "afstootlik" deur die kiesers gesien word en die party p.og verdere punte kos, meen waamemers.

'" Die ses partye wat nou weer teen Swapo span, het 'n reputasie daarv­oor nadat hulle verlede jaar tydens die Resolusie 435-verkiesings met die Suid-Afrikaanse regeling, die SA weermag, polisie en alle hoofde van staatsdepartemente Saamgespan <het om Swapo van 'n tweederde-meer­defueid te berOOf.

Die anti-Swapo-beweging het miljoene van SA gekryen fyn kOOrdi­nasie en beplaming is ligter die skerms gedeel, volgens aanduidings wat later op die lappe gekom het.

Volgens 'n polisiewoordvoerder is die drie soldate gister op Rehoboth inhegtenisgeneemenhulle sal seker vandag reeds vlugtig op aanklagte van moord in die land,droshof ver­skyn.

Premarco is op slag dood nadat 'n koeel hom in die kop getref het. Hy was 'n passasier op 'n bakkie wat in

Die voertuig waarin Premarco gereis het lyknes die van Cloete. Die volle besonderhede was gisteraand nog nie beskikbaar nie.

Vreemdes moet 'oppas! VREEMDE burgerlikes, wat hulself onwettig in Namibie bevind, en hul 'beskermhere', mag binnekort in die sop beland, na aanleiding van strenger beheermaatreels wat verlede week bekend gemaak is.

Luidens 'n persverklaring, wat deur die Permanente Sekretaris van Binne­landse Aangeleenthede, Ndali Kamati, in Windhoek uitgereik is, het die inwerkingstelling van die Namibiese Burgerskapwet (Wet 14 van 1990),op 15 September 1990 daarloe bygedra dat sekere amendemente met betrekking tot vreemdelinge van krag geword het.

Omdat 'n vreemdeling kragtens die V reemdelingwet 'n persoon is wat nie 'p Namibiese burger is nie, moet so 'n persoon in besit wees van 'n wettige verblyfpermit, hetsy tydelik of permanent.

"Daar is 'n groot getal vreemdelinge wat onwettig in Namibie bly, waarvan sommige in die private sowel as die openbare sektore werksaam is - in teenstelling met die wette wat betrekking op vreemdelinge het. ' ,

Die Ministerie doen 'n beroep op regeringsinstansies, georganiseerde handel en nywethede, die mynwese, die landboubedryf en werkgewers in die algemeen, om 'n bYdrae te lewer tot die bekamping van onwettige verblyf en ongemagtigde aIbeid in Namibie.

"Niemand mag 'n vreemde burger indiens neem, wat nie in besit is van die nodige wettige permitte me," lui'die verklaring wat ook waarsku dat diegene wat weI bystand ofhulp verleen aan 'n persoon wat die land onwettig binnekom enhierwoon, by skuldigbevinding van sodanige klag 'n boete vannie meer as R5 000 of gevruigenisstraf van nie meer as twee jaar opgele kan word.

'12 Tuesday' October 2 "1990 THE NAMIBIAN

·Rehoboth -'n lang tradisie van verset Die op~r~~ekkende gebeure in Rehoboth die afgelope week het weer e~ns die aandag gevestig op die posi­sie van die Rehoboth-Basters, 'n groep met'n sterk ontwikkelde onafhan­klikheidsin. Die Baster-kaptein, Hans Diergaardt, se weiering om die ampswoning, wat tradisioneel deur die kaptein bewoon is: te ontruim, moet gesien word teen die agter­grond van 'nlang era van verset,teen die Suid-Afrikaanse regering en die destydse Administrasie van Suidwes­Afrika.

Die huidige wrywing tussen die Basters en die Namibiese Regering wentel rondom die kwessie van selfbeskikkingsreg vir die mense van die Rehoboth-Gebiet, 'n reg wat tra­disioneel erken is, maar ondergeskik was aan die oppergesag wat deur die ou Volkebond en die destydse Dnie en die Republiek van Suid-Afrika uitgeoefen is.

Om by die oorsake van die huidige krisis uit te kom is dit nodig om 'n kort historiese oorsig van die staatkun-

• dige en politieke verwikkelinge met ~bet'rekking tot die Rehoboth-Basters ;te gee. " " , ,.

Die Rehoboth-gebied is in 1870 ' deur die Baster-kaptein Hermanus van Wyk van die Nama-groep, Swartboois, tydens 'n konferensie

, op Okahandja bekom. Betaling het in die vorm van 'n

perd wat jaarliks aan die Namasgegee is, geskied. Mettertyd het die gebied as die eiendom van die Basters bek­end geword en is dit dan ook as sodanig in 1915 deur die Suid-Afri­kaanse regering erken.

In 1872 is 'n Volksraad verkies en 'n grondwet, gebaseer op die ou Vaderlike Wette van die Basters, is aanvaar. In 1885 het die Baster-leier, Cornelius van Wyk, 'n sogenaamde ' Schutzvertrag' met die,Duitse be­settingsowerheid onderteken ingev­olge waarvan ,die Basters se reg op selfregering gewaarborg is. In 1915

' het VanWyk die bevelvoerder van' , die Suid-Afrikaanse magte in'Suid­, wes-Afrika, geni. Louis Botha, op ,Swakopmund optmoet waar Botha , sou beloofhet d3t dkonafhanklikheid

van die Basters behoue sal bly. In 1916het die Sekretaris van Verded­iging van die Dnie van Suid-Afrika in 'n telegram aangedui dat die Bas­ters se " status en regte soos deur die Duitsers toegeken, nie verminder sou word' nie". Die Administrasie van ' Suidwes-Afrika het die telegram vertolk as sou die Ba~ters se posisie voortaan dieselfde wees as onder die Duitse koloruale owerheid. Die probleem is egter dat daar reeds in die Duitse tyd inmenging in die Basters se aangeleenthede voorgekom het en die handhawing van die vorige bede­ling was dus vir baie Basters onaan­vaaIbaar, juis omdat dit die moont­likheid ingehouhet dat Suid-Afrika ook in hulle aange1eentbede kon inmeng'. Daar het dus reeds van meet af aan vertC?lkingsverskille bestaan tussen die Basters en die regering van,die Dnie vanSuid-Afrika oorwat presies die omvang van hulle selfbeskikkingsreg sou wees.

Op5Februarie 1919het 'nBaster­afvaardiging die goewemeiu--generaal van die Dnie versoek om Rehoboth onder Britse gesag te plaas, net soos wat met Betsjoena1and die geval was. Die versoek is egter geweier. In 1923 het die Administrasie van Suidwes- ' Afrika 'n ooreenkoms bereik met 'n seksie van die Rehobolh-gemeenskap wat positief gesind was teenoor die idee van 'n nuwe grondwet vir die Basters. Ingevolge Proklamasie 28 van 1923 is 'n beperkte vorm van sel­fregering aan die Basters toegeken' en is gedeeltelik erkenning gegee aa:n dieou ' Vaderlike Wette. Die 'ooreenkoms het ook erkenning gegee 'am die pos~sie van die kaptein, 'n e Volks '-)raad en reg'ters en magis-

trate van die ' Gebiet'. ' 'n Groot aantal Basters het geweier

om die ooreenkoms te aanvaar enhet op volkome onafhanldjkbei:d aanged~ ring. Hierop het die twee strydende Bas~ergroepe elk 'n eie raad gekies en die opponerende Nuwe Raad het die magistraat meegedeel dat hulle nie sy gesag aanvaar nie. ,

van selfbeskikking onder die aandag van die Administrasie te bring en in 1939 het die Dnie-pretnier, geni. Hertzog, 'n twee-persoon-konunissie aangestel omte bepaal " of die Bas­ters in staat was om hulleself te re­geer, en indien weI, of dit in die belang van die Baster-gemeenskap sou wees om selfregering te her­stel". Die Konunissie het die eerste vraag in,die negatiefbeantwoord en die Bastergemeenskap is meegedeel dat geen verandering in die status quo aangebring sou word nie. In 1 !?51 het 'n volgende konunissie aanbev­eel dat die magte en bevoegdhede

• van die Raad ).litgebrei moet word . Die Rehoboth-Gebiet A~leenthede Ordonnansie No. 20 van 1961 het

,:, wel'voorsiening gemaak vir die her­stel van die ooreenkoms van 1923, en dit is deur die meerderheid burgers verwetp. 'n Grondwet wat in 1962 deur die Raad in oorleg met 'n regsgeleerd.e opgestel is, is eweneens deur die 'Burgerryk van Rehoboth' verwerpendieherkoseraadhetin 'n brief aan die Eerste Minister van Suid-Afrika verklaar dat "dit besluit is om onmiddellik aan die werk te gaan deur 'n gekos~ Konunissie uit Raadslede en Burgers om die Vader­like Wette uit te brei tot 'n volwaar­dige grondwet' '. Die posisie was dus steeds dat die Adviserende Raad onder leiding van die aangestelde landdros/ kaptein gefunksioneer het.

, Die administrateur het gevolglik ingevolge Proklamasie No. 31 van 1924 die magte van die kaptein, volksraad, regters en magistrate opgeskort en aan 'n magistraat vir Rehoboth oorgedra. Die geskil is op , die spits gedryf toe die Dnit\-reger­ing 'n sogenaamde Bran/iwet uitgevaardig het wat Basters verplig het om hulle beeste te brand.

Dit die voorafgaande oorsig is dit dus ,duidelik dat die Baster-ge­meenskap oor 'n lang tydperk 'n, mindere of meerc;lere mate van sel­fregering beoefen het, maar dat dit

"'ondergeskik w~s aan enersyds die gesag van die ou Volkebond en an­dersyds die gesag van die man­

Die versetgroephet geweierom 'If ' daathouet:;.~uid-Afrika, wet van Suid-Afrika te erken omdat ,Die Verenigde N asies het na 1945 dit ,weer eens as "n aantasting' van die hoogste' soewereine gesag oor , lmlleoutonoinie beskDu is. Die Dnie- Suidwes,:Afrika geword en hoewel Verdedigingsmag se hulp is hierop Suid-Afrika die feit aanvanklik be-ingeroep om .die opstandige Basters twyfelhet,isdituiteindeliktoegegee te onderwerp. Drie vliegtuie het oor dat die staatkundige ontwikkeling van Rehoboth gevlieg en dit het die op_: die gebied slegs onder leiding van standelinge daarvan oortuig dat ver- die VN voltrek kan word. dere verset nutteloos sou wees. 'n Belangrike verdere ontwikke-

'n Ondersoekkonunissie in die ling in die Rehoboth-kwessie was die persoon van appelregter Jacob de uitvaardigin~ van die Wet op Sel-Villiers is aangewys en sy verslag is fregering viI\ die Rehoboth-Gebiet, aan die Suid-Afrikaanse parlement No. 56 van 1976. Dithetvoorsiening voorgele. Die ontevredenes wou egter gemaak vi~ die daarstelling van 'n rue hiermee genae neem nie en het Kapteinsrnad, onder leiding van 'n tussen 1926 en 1932 verskeie petisies ' burger' van Rehoboth wat vir 'n na die Permanente Mandate-Kom- periode van vyf jaar verkies sou word tnissie (PMK) van die Volkebond , en twee lede sou aanwys om op die gestuur. Die PMK het na oorweging raad te ,dien. Die raad sou as die

,van die De Villiers-verslag pertinent uitvoerende gesag (regering) van verklaar dat die Basters nie oor Rehoboth funksioneer en is byges-onaibanklikbehi beskik nie. Die taan deur 'n Wetgewende Raad van petisionarisse is meegedeel dat hulle ' ". ses lede 'wat jaarliks verkies'sou word. griewe ten volle ondersoek is en dat dittiie nodig is om verdere optrede te, onderneem nie.Dit is betekenisvol om daarop te let dat die De Villiers­konunissie onder meer aanbeveel het dat die binnekoms en verblyf van witmense in die RehoboIh-gebiet onder beheer van die Administrasie van Suidwes-Afrika moes resorteer en dat geen belang in onroerende eien­dom deur nie-Rehobothers sonder toestemming van die administrateur bekom'inag word nie. , , , Sake het hietria 'n meer vreedsame: wending geneem. 'nAdviesraad.van . ses lede, aaOvimklik deels verkose en "

, deels genomineerd, is ingestel en is sedert 1935 volle dig verkies. Daar is nietemin voortgegaan om die kwessie

Die wet het voorsiening gemaak vir , die gedeeltelikeerkenning van die ou Vaderlike Wette, maar nuwe bepalings is ingebring om dit in lyn met moderne bestuurspraktyke te bring. Vir die eerste maal sedertdie twintigerjare het die Reboboth-ge­meenskap dus weer oor 'n kaptein uit eie geledere beskik en het hulle hul

. eie sake,hanteer.' Met die uitv.aardiging van Prokla­

masie< AG 8 van , 1980 ingevolge waarVan"tweedevlakowethede vir die verskillende ' etniese ' groepe ingestel sou word, het die 'Basters geweier om selfbestuur ingevolge die bepalings

van hierdie proklamasie te aanvaar. Hulle het aangevoer dat hulle ingev­olge Wet 56 van .1976 reeds oor selfregering beskik en dat hulle geen begeerte het om oor dieselfde kam as 'etniese owethede' geskeer te word nie. Dit het die posisie gebly tot en met onafhanklikheid toe die Reho­both-regering ingestem het dat hulle owerheid ontbind word, maar vol­gens mnr. Hans Diergaardt het hulle sIegs daartoe toegestem op vootwaaroe dat die Rehoboth-regering met onafhanklikheid herstel word en dat die nuwe Namibiese Regering met die situasie sou handel. Dit wil voorkom asof die destydse adminis­tratepr-generaal een of ander mon­delinge onderneming in hierdie ver­band met die Baster-kaptein aangegaan het. Die Basters is volgens Dier­gaardt ten gunste van 'n federale stelsel waarbinne hulle hulself kan regeer. Die Namibiese Grondwet maak na hul mening nie voldoende vc;>or­siening vir streeksregerings Die.

Die vraag wat riou oDtstaan is of die Rehoboth-Basters war aandring op 'n groter 'mate' van selfregering, enige gronde' het waarop hulle aanspraak berus. - Die vraag kan beantwoord word deur kortliks na die regsimplikasies sowel as die his­tories-politiese agtergrond van die geskil te kyk. Die Volkebond het destyds finale verantwoordelikheid oor die gebied Suidwes-Afrika aan­vaar en alle reelings wat Suid-Afrika as mandaathouer in die gebied aangegaan het, het onder die gesag van die Volkebond geskied.

Die situasie is gehandhaaf met die totstandkoming van die VN wat, ingevolge die 1950 adviserende mening van die Internasionale Ger­egshof, steeds '11 belang daarin ge­had het om toe te sien dat die stoflike welsyn van die inwoners van Suid­wes-Afrika g~aaIborg word. In 1971 het die Internasionale Geregshof die mandaat van Suid-Afrika oor Suid­wes-Afrika herroep en verklaar dat al Suid-Afrika se hand~linge met betrekking tot SW.A ongeidig is.

In die lig hiervan is dit dus duide-1ik dat watter ooreeDkomSte SA ookal met onder meer die Rehoboth-Bas­ters aangegaan het; dit J?ie voorrang kon geniet bo die grondwetlike bepal­inge wat uitgevaardig word sou deur 'n onafhanklike Namibiese Reger-ing nie. ,

,Boonop is die territoriale integriteit van die Republiek van Namibie 'n saak wat internasionaal en in die Namibiese Grondwet verskans is.

Dit bring ons by die tweede aspek, naamlik die histories-politiese. Dit is duidelik dat die B!lsters 'n sterk emosionele verbintenis tot hulle grond het en die feit dat Suid-Afrika tra-

' disioneel beide die konsep vankom­munale grondbesit (die ' Rehoboth­Gebiet' as 'n geheel) en privaatgrond­besit (deur indiwiduele Basters) erken het, het ongetwyfeld aan hierdie verbintenis 'n soorttegbasis verskaf - in elk geval wat ,die Basters betref.

Vae beloftes deur die- Suid-Afri­kaanse regering en sy ampsdraers het ongetwyfeld daartoe bygedra om die Basters meer vasbeslote te maak om hulle selfbeskikkingsregte handhaaf en beheer oor lmlle grond te verseker.

Hierdie kan egter duidelik nie as norm dien wanneer dit gaan oor die judisiele verhouding tussen die sen­trale regering en streeksgroeperinge nie. In terme van die internasionale regsge~kiedenis ;van Nainibie het die beginsel vait 'n Unitere staat beslis voorrang bo die aansprake van min­derheidsgroepe in bepaalde streke geniet.

Buccaneers crush Wits TWO goals in five minutes of the second half of extra time helped Orlando Pirates reach the quarterfinals of the Bob Save Super Bowl with a 2-0 victory over Wits University at the Orlando Stadium, Soweto, on Sunday. The goals, the first by Nick :Bazooka' Sishweni in the 112th minute and the other from veteran Mandla Sithole after the 117thminute" came after Pirates were reduced to 10 men after the sending off of Alfred Gw~beni by referee Gregory Stewart in the 83rd minute. Gwabeni had come on for Bashin MahlaIigu four minutes earlier. He was sent off for deliberately stepping on Corlett Dube after both had fallen during a tussle for the ball. In a desperate move to save the game, Pirates brough on Sithole for Ian Palmer, and it paid off. Sithole laid on the pass that saw Sishweni put them into the lead, and Sishweni complimented the gesture by laying on the final pass from which Sithole made sure of victory . .

Prost seizes Spanish Grand Prix ALAIN Prost kept alive his faint hopes of retaining the World Drivers' Cham­pionship when he won an incident-packed Spanish Grand Prix on Sunday. The Frenchnian, in a Ferrari, won comfortably ahead of his team-mate Nigel .Mansell of Britain. For Ferrari it was the second one-two of the year and a repeat of their triumph in Mexico in June. The win was the record 44th of Prost's career and lifted his total number of points to within nine of Brazilian Ayrton Senna. ~ost' s victory also ruined Senna's hopes of ending the day by celebrating his second world championship victory. Senna, who was forced to retire from the race after leading in his McLaren for the opening 26 laps, now has 78 points and Prost 69 ,leaving the championship open for the last two races of the season in Japan and Australia.

McEnroe captures Swiss tourney JOHN McEnroe rallied magnificently after losing the first two sets and trailing

. 2-05 in the third to beat Yugoslav Goranlvanisevic in the final of the men's $500 000 Swiss indoor tennis tournament on Sunday. Third seed McEnroe, producing vintage tennis remini~cent of his glory years in the early 1980s,

. pulled off a 6-74-67-66-36-4 victory, his first tournament triumph for more than 12 months. Yet Ivanisevic had seemed on course for his second title this year as the American former world number one dropped the first set tiebreak 7-4 and, ~ble to get his big serve and volley working, succumbed somewhat tamely in the second set. The gangling Ivanisevic used his booming first serve effecHvely and covered the court with giant strides, retuming as winners what looked irretrievable. The American, however, achieved the crucial service break in the fifth game of the deciding set to wrap up a match lasting four hours 24 minutes.

Stars down Bucks VAAL Reefs Stars cruised to a 4-1 win over Umtata Bucks in their Bob Save Super Bowl second round soccer match at the Independence Stadium in Umtata on Sunday. The sides were level 1-1 at half-time. Within one minute of the kickoff, Stars' Caiphus Matlala beat the Bucks defence to net an easy goal, and after that Stars invaded the home side' sterritory and goalkeeper Nigel Dixon was called on to save numerous shots. Kabasa Ncube of Bucks took his opportunity to level the score in the 37th minute when he headed in a through­ball to make it 1-1. But in the 55th minute, Stars went ahead again when striker Andreas Motsoane netted. Their third goal came in the 58th minute when Vincent Webb sliced through the Bucks defence and was brought down hard in the penalty area. Referee Jorge Lobo did not hesitate to award a penalty, which John Serati slammed home. Motsoane, the hero for Stars, scored his second goal in the 87th minute to take his side into the quarterfinals.

Aces through to quarterfinals WITBANK Aces went through to the quarterfinals of the Bob Save Super Bowl when they defeated Bloemfontein Celtic 2-0 in a second round soccer tie at the. Seisa Ramabodu Stadium in Bloemfontein on Sunday. The visitors applied constant pre~sl1re in the first half, but failed to convert this advantage into goals. But Aces finally broke the deadlock in the 60th minute when Vivian . Moreko scored a fine goal. Celtic then threw everything forward and missed several scoring chances late in the match in their bid to force extra time. Because of this, Aces were allowed to go on the. break and a goal by Lucky Makhelodise put the issue beyond doubt in the 89th minute.

Eindhoven hit form DUTCH soccer league leaders ,PSV Eindhoven hit the fol'lli of the season to trounce Den Haag 4-0 after :being lifted by a penalty save from Hans van Breukelen on Sunday. Van Breukelen's save from a spot-kick by midfielder Frans Danen in the first half sparked his dormant te~who romped to their fourth win in six first division matches. PSV head the table on goal difference from defending champions Ajax Amsterdam, both teams having 10 points. Ajax beat MVV Maastricht 4-1 away. The Eindhoven side were leading by a Gerald Vanenburg goal when defender Eric Gerets gave away the penalty shortly before half time by fouling Danen. PSV's Brazilian striker Romario twice hit a post before a second half goal spree started with Juul Ellerman slotting home in the 51st minute. Vanenburg (61st) and Romario (70th) completed the tally.

Pubs shock Dynamos GRINAKER J!g,bs caused a maj or upset when they defeated Dynamos 3-1 after extra time in their Bob Save Supc?r Bowl 'second round soc~er tie at Lenasia on Sunday. The game was marred when Dynamos goalkeeper Nelson Still was shown the red card at the end of the first period of extra time for disputing Pubs' second goal. Pubs took the lead after 20 minutes when Johannes Shili scored a memorable goal. Dynamos fought back and levelled matters in the 83rd minute when Owen da Gama scored with a header to take the game into extra time. Bonnie Muma gave Pubs their controversial 2-1 lead in the 105thminute, and Jan Leloho scored three minutes from the end of exatra time when he beat standing goalkeeper Mike Lambert with a well struck shot to make it 3-1.

Botswana-Catneroon in goalless draw

. \

A TIRED.LOOKIN<;; Cameroon national soccer side, known as the 'Indomitable Lions', were held to a goalless draw by the Botswana national side at the Natiouai Stadium in Gaborone on Sunday . .

The ga.'1le, marking the Independ­ence Day celebrations for Botswana, was attended by a large crowd which included Botswana president Dr Quett Masire.

The Ciuneroon side, who per:fonned miracles in the recent World Cup in Italy, brought only four members of their World Cup squad to Botswana. The rest are playing for teams in France, Belgium and Spain.

Sunday ' s game was a thriller in all respects. It was the game in which the local team, known as the 'Ze­bras' .. performed beyond their usual standard of playas they rose to the occasion.

From the kick-offto the final whistle, the Zebras fought like wounded ti­gers, giving the visitors a tough time.

They raided the Cameroon goal time and again. And it was only through their fmishing in front of goal that they failed to score.

Cameroon brought on three sub­stitutes in a bid to go for goals, but their plan did not work as the deter­mined Bostwana side fought through-

out. The Cameroon players arrived by

air shortly before the start, and their coach, Nyongha July, blamed the team' s performance on the condi­hons they we're subjected to while on ti:ansit in Zaire on Saturday night.

He said because none of them had visas, they had to sleep on the floor without blankets.

Otherwise, he commended the Botswana team for having shown such determination. He saId they were very serious and built up some fine attacking moves. But he left a mes­sage for Botswana. "Play for goals and not for the spectators:" TIle team, . he said,.-! 'had no appetite for goals" .

He said the local team had a lot to do to gain international exposure.

For Cameroon, outstanding play­ers were Edwine Efany, Efany Da­gobete, Jeffrey Yembo, Jacob Ewana and Pius Essa. .

The local players to shine were Scara Kebalepile, City Senne, Jomo Mosweu and Teenage Gosenyang, who got a yellow card for rough play.

SW A Toyota Young Ones' match-winning striker, Lance Willentse (centre), is too late to get this one beltind t~ Arsenal goalkeeper, but the exciting striker managed to grab the equaliser for his team later in the match. Young Ones went on to win the Castle Classic quarterfinal tie 4-3 on penalties in a dull match played at the Katutura Stadium on Saturday.

CASTLE CLASSIC CUP:

Black Africa and Young' O·nes in Classic final

CONRAD ANGULA

THE soccer-hungry Katutura public will fmally see the grand cup final they have been hoping for when defending champions Nashua Black Africa entertain SW A Toyota Young Ones in the fmal of the Castle Classic Cup this Saturday.

It will be 'the first time since 1986 tllat the two Windhoek soccer giants face each other in a cup final since the IPS Cup final that saw Black Africa finishing Young Ones 4-0.

It will be quite interesting to see whether the Lively Lions, who are fast regaining · their best -form, will live up to their reputation as the tough\Jst team to beat in cup finals.

Black Africa played their best football in recent years, coming close to the superb form they displayed in 1987 when they almost made a clean sweep of all the major cup competi­tions, except the Metropolitan Cup championship.

On the other hand; Young Ones -alias the Kings at Night - have also proved that they are at their. best when the odds are against them.

The Khomasdal side twice faced defeat and where lucky to qualify for this weekend's final.

Young Ones had to come from behind against a rejuvenated Arsenal in a match that was marred by the · latter team's undisciplined tactical approach. Young Ones had to wait until the dying minutes of the dull match before Lance Willemse cancelled Arsenal ' s early lead.

Arsenal, who were . put into the lead by their skilful but temperamen­tal midfield star Sputla, had only themselves to playas they resortedto crowd-pleasing antics ratper then to hold onto theknarrow lead.

The Kings at Night had to pull all stops against a rampant Liverpool

. before they managed to scrape home 2-1 in the semifinal at the Katutura Stadium yesterday.

Liverpool, despite the talent at their disposal, consist mainly ofunimagi­native youngsters who lack the much~ needed planning and strategical

approach on the pitch. Black Africa, unlike their oppo­

nents in the final, played with more composure and the forwards were more purposeful than in their most recent outings.

Black Africa ' s forwards scored 19 goals among them in four outings, with Mike Petersen netting nine to make him the top' scorer in the com­petition so far.

The defence, well marshalled by veteran sweeper and captain Cosmos Indies Damaseb, also gave only one goal away - a record in the history of Namibian cup competitions.

Black Africa's hopes for the final were secured by Chacklas Engelbre­cht ( I), Mike Petersen (2) and Ringo Skrywer (1) in their 4-1 semifinal routing of a gutsy Sorento Bucks at a . capacity-packed Katutura Stadium yesterday.

Congo Thaniseb score the conso­lation goal for the Dolam lads.

Young Ones booked their place in the final through Lance Willemse and Kosie Springbok who shared a goal each, with Boeta Mungunda replying with a loan goal for the Okahandja-based Liverpool.

CIVICS' nimble-footed str iker, Rex English (centre), beats Liver­pool goalkeeper Isack Garoeb to the ball but the header was unfortunately ofT target. Liverpool won the exciting quarterfinal tie 2-0, thanks to two superb goals by Boeta Mungunda.
