Angs toe

opbabarig

JAMEY GORDON

n Jong ma van die Strand het n

paar oomblikke van angs beleef

toe n rower n mes teen haar ba-

ba sewanggedrukhet in ngewa-

pende rooftog.

Toe Maritza van Loggerenberg

(24) se 19 maande oue seuntjie een

vandriemanswat hulle lastig geval

het teen die skouer klap, het di glo

ges klapmyweer, dan sien jy wat

maak ek. Hy het n mes uit sy

broeksak gepluk en teen die baba se

wang gedruk voor hy die ma van

haar kontant beroof het.

Ek het magteloos gevoel toe die

man n mes uitpluk en dit teen Con-

nortjie se wang druk, het Van Log-

gerenberg ges.

Sy vertel die voorval het om-

streeks 16:40 verlede Donderdag in

die Galloway-sentrum plaasgevind,

waar haar haarsalon en woonstel

gele is.

Toe sy haar salonwou sluit, merk

sy drie jongmans op wat heeldag in

die sentrum rondgedrentel en ook

in n stadium voor haar salon kom

staan en gesels het. Een van hulle

het vroer vir haar iets te ete kom

vra, en sy het vir hom n muffin ge-

gee.

Van Loggerenberg s sy het onge-

maklik begin voel en haar gehaas

om klaar te maak, en ook haar baba

by een van die mans geneem wat

hom intussen opgetel het.

Van Loggerenberg het n blikkie

met R500 kontant in haar handsak

gedruk en die salon gesluit.

Op pad na haar woonstel het die

manshaar gevolg enprobeer omdie

stootwaentjie vir haar te stoot. By

die hyser gekom, het een van die

mans haar weer vir ietsie gevra,

maar sy het ges sy het nie in daar-

die stadium iets by haar nie.

Opdaardieoomblikhetdiebeang-

ste Connor die man teen die skouer

geklap. N dieman diemes teen die

baba se wang gedruk het, het hy die

mes onderMaritza se keel gehou en

dieblikkieuithaarhandsakgegryp.

Hy het haar voor die hyser staan en

aangluur totdat die hyserdeur ge-

sluit het.

Dis die eerste keer dat ek my

kind s bang gesien het. Ek is net

baieblyalbei vanonshet ongedeerd

daarvan afgekom.

Die Strand-polisie ondersoek n

saak van roof.

Herman Ras, gewapende reaksie-

bestuurder van die Secure Rite-se-

kerheidsmaatskappy, ag die voor-

val as ontstellend. Ras meen dit is

heeltemal barbaars van enigemens

om n baba se lewe in gevaar te stel

en dt om sy ma te beroof.

Die gemeenskap moet saam-

staan ommisdaad, wat skynbaar in

die Helderberg toeneem, ernstig

aan te spreek en te bekamp.

Manvertel vanmisluktemotordiefstal

DELIAH BRINKHUIS

Toe hy inmyo spuit, was dit

asof ek met blindheid geslaan

is.

Dis hoe Jannie Schenck (73)

van Somerset-Wes die peper-

sproei-aanval op hom, verlede

Vrydag, onthou.

Volgens Schenck was hy op

pad na die kliniek in Hoofweg,

Strand toehy syToyotaYaris net

voor 07:00 by die Fasie-Faure

plein, agter Hoofweg parkeer

het.

Schenck vertel dat dit toe nog

skemer was en dat daar slegs n

paar ander motors geparkeer

was. n Paar meter verder het hy

twee mans aangeloop sien kom.

Volgens Schenk het hy, nadat

hy die motor gesluit het, om die

kar geloop om seker te maak dat

dit reg geparkeer is. Sekondes la-

ter het hy die skok van sy lewe

gekry toe hy aan-geval word.

Met die omdraai het ek net

WOEP! gevoel toe ek teen die

kop geslaan word, vertel hy

grootoog. Schenck s dat een van

diemans homvinnig omgeswaai

het en dat die ander een hommet

pepersproei gespuit het.

Hy is na bewering ook n twee-

de keer gespuit. Als het so vinnig gebeur,

dit was sekondes.

Die mans het sy broeksakke deursoek en

sy motorsleutels uitgehaal waarna een van

die mans die motor oopgesluit het en in die

kar geklim het. Hy kon egter nie die motor

aangeskakel kry nie.

Volgens Schenk het hy toe besef dat die

mans sy motor wou steel.

Nous hier n gemors, ek sal moet keer,

het ek gedink, vertel hy.

Ek het geskree dat daai plek antwoord

gee, ek het net HELP HELP geskree.

Binne sekondes het n sekerheidswag aan-

gehardloop gekom.

Volgens Schenck het n groot fris kaalvoet

man in nkortbroekengewapenmet ngholf-

stok vanuit n ander rigting aangestorm ge-

kom.

Waars hy, waars hy?

Ek sal hom vrek slaan!

het hy geskree, onthou

Schenck.

Volgens Schenck het sy

aanvallers laat spaander.

Hulle het besef dinge

raak tewarm. Toe ekweer

sien woerts, het hy uit

die kar gespring en het

hulle indie rigtingvandie

nabygele arkade gehard-

loop, vertel hy.

Met ondersoek het

Schenck ontdek dat die

sleutel in die aanskake-

laar afgebreek het.

Hy s nog n jongerige

manhet byhulle komaan-

sluitomtehelp.Hykoneg-

ter nie die gebreekte sleu-

telverwydernieomdatdie

motor nie wou aanskakel

nie.

Na n paar probeerslae

het die motor wel aange-

skakelenisdiesleutelver-

wyder.

Die sekerheidswag het

water gebring sodat

Schenck sy o kon spoel.

Hy het slegs dankbaar-

heid vir die dapper mans

wat hom te hulp gesnel

het. Die fris geboude man het Schenk na sy

huis geneem om sy motor se spaarsleutel te

kry.

Syhaarkapper-vrou,Elbie (69) isdankbaar

dat hy nie erger beserings opgedoen het nie

en dat hulmotor veilig is. Nou dat als verby

is en ek helder kan dink, besef ek hoe geluk-

kig ek was dat niks erger gebeur het nie, en

sal nie weer daar parkeer nie, s Schenck.

Jannie Schenck was onlangs die slagoffer van n mislukte motordiefstal.

Mnyimba vertel dat wit inwoners

aanges is om na Somerset-Wes te

skuif.

Sy s mense wat voorheen grond-

eienaars was moes huurders word

en in baie gevalle ismense n skame-

Die idee van n grondeis is vir die

eerste keer verlede jaar by n Firgro-

Lwandle eviction hearings getting nasty

Politicalmudslingingescalatedwith

the start of the public hearings into

the Lwandle evictions this week.

Both theCityofCapeTownandthe

province opted for written submis-

sions and reserved their right to

comment on the inquirys findings

on Tuesday.

Western Cape premier Helen Zille

said theinquirycommitteeeffective-

ly gave the province, its human set-

tlements department and the city

one working days notice to prepare

an oral submission.

Zille also said the committee prob-

ing the Lwandle evictions has all the

hallmarks of a political hit squad,

as it consists mainly of ANC parlia-

mentary members.

Zille further pointed out that

SesKhona has allegedly been in-

volved in facilitating and encourag-

ing land invasions, hijacking the re-

lief efforts by the City for their own

patronage purposes and involving

thelocalANCcouncillorsintheseac-

tivities.

She says charges have been laid

against members of SesKhona and

a local ANC councillor Mbuyiselo

Matha, for allegedly kidnapping se-

curity guards on the Sanral site and

holding them hostage.

The City submission highlighted

the following key elements:

Only73of thepeopleevicted from

the Sanral land are legally on the

Citys housing database.

Most are relatively new entrants

to the list.

There are currently over 15 000

individuals on the Helderberg hous-

ing database who have been waiting

for a housing opportunity.

2 300 of these people havebeenon

the database (1979 to 1998) since be-

fore the first applicants from Lwan-

dle and Nomzamo.

Since the beginning of the year,

SesKhona has actively encouraged

people to invade the Sanral land,

selling plots to the evictees for as

much as R2 500.

The City will be providing basic

services such as water and sanita-

tion once the temporary structures

on the Sanral site are completed.

HIKE IN PARKING TARIFFS: The

City of Cape Town increased its park

ing rates as from the beginning of Ju

ly. According to Brett Herron, mayoral

committee member: transport for Cape

Town, the updated parking tariffs

were adopted by the City Council as

part of the 2014/15 budget. The tar

iffs are not new, but have been ad

justed for the first time in three finan

cial years. He says two categories of

parking tariffs are applied, one for

the Cape Town CBD (R3 per 15 min

utes or part thereof) and the other for

the rest of the metropolitan area (R2

per 15 minutes). The higher tariff ap

plied to the Cape Town CBD accounts

for the higher demand for parking in

this area. This Ace parking attendant

City slow to shift sewage

CASSY VAN EEDEN

On 4 July raw sewage began bubbling up

into the garden of a Gordons Bay resi-

dence, the third consecutive year that

this unpleasant occurrence has hap-

pened.

Its never been this bad though, said ten-

ant Julian White.

Whitehad first contacted themunicipality

at 13:00 on 4 July to report the problem, but

by 5 July, after the heavy rains from the pre-

vious night, the entire propertywas flooded.

The owner of the property, Lindsay Eber-

sohn, also visited the municipality that af-

ternoon to complain.

White said that officials from the Water

and Sanitation Depot only arrived at 17:00.

They did nothing, left saying theywould be

back later, said White.

By 21:00 that evening White just gave up

and went to bed.

The following morning, after the entire

garden had been covered in raw sewage, an

official arrived and located the blockage.

White said that the municipal workers

then used pressurised water in an attempt

to move the mess away from the house, but

in the process simply spread it even further

around the property.

The following Monday workers returned

to sanitise the area with chemicals.

White and his girlfriend were told not to

enter the garden or let their dogs walk there

as the chemicals were poisonous. Theywere

also told that someone would visit the prop-

erty again in a few days to cover the chemi-

cals with sand.

At the time of going to press, no-one had

visited the property to cover the chemicals.

Councillor Ernest Sonnenberg, mayoral

committee member for utility services, said

that the City of Cape Town sincerely regret-

ted the fact that the resident had been affect-

ed that way.

Sonnenberg said thatwhen the

problemwas reported, the water

and sanitation depot had already

received 20 sewage-related com-

plaints that day andas suchwas

unfortunatelyunable toattend to

this fault before 17:00.

When the team arrived at the

residence it had been raining for

some time. The mains were thus

fullofwater,andassuchtheteam

wasunable todeterminethe loca-

tion of the blockage.

The decision was taken to re-

turnwhen the rainhad subsided,

but the rain continued through-

out thenight. The team therefore

only returned early the next

morning to unblock the system.

A property in Anchorage Park, Gordons Bay was flooded with raw sewage after the

heavy rains on the weekend of 4 July.

yes I fully agree they can sugar

coat it as much as they want, but

its about time the animal hospi

and not just a money making

business. Surely one vet can be

available at all times and availa

really is no excuse, you chose the

profession and your clients pay

your salaries. Remember this.

Whatareyou

doingon

MandelaDay?

On Friday 18 July South Africans

celebrateMandela Day by giving up

67 minutes of their time to a worthy

cause.

This is also the first year that we

will celebrate our former Presi-

dents birthday without him being

here to witness it.

Mandela Day is not a public holi-

day, but a day on which we can hon-

our the legacy of this great man by

giving up 67 minutes of our time for

community service.

MandelaDayis thesedaysaglobal

call to actionwith the idea that each

individual has within themselves

the power to transform the world

and the ability to make an impact.

Helderberg residents of all ages

and fromallwalks of lifewill be join-

ing in the celebrations by offering

their time, efforts andwhere needed

funds to help those less fortunate

than themselves.

Among themanywonderful offer-

ings are knitting scarves and jer-

seys, making soup and sandwiches

and then taking these to shelters,

schools, old age homes and church-

es.

Mandela Day is such a wonderful

initiative and brings out the best in

people resulting in hundreds of

charitablegooddeedsall done inone

day.

Wouldnt it be wonderful if we

could all perform at least one good

deed or one act of kindness or sup-

port one charity every single day?

Think of how much goodness we

would generate and how much we

would inspire others to do the same.

We shouldnt have to wait for one

specific day in the year before we

perform a good deed - we should try

and do something good every day.

CASSY VAN EEDEN

Itsasbadasgivingdrugaddicts

Councillor Benedicta van Min-

nen of sub-council 22 and ward 15

advocates that by giving hand-outs

to people begging on the street only

keeps them there.

There are alternatives to giving

street people money.

For only R10 residents can pur-

chase a voucher to give to someone

begging which entitles them to a

shower, sleeping bag, blanket, a

meal, toiletriesandaccesstoasocial

workerwho canassist them in their

upliftment.

Vouchers can be purchased at the

night shelter offices in Church

Street, from Helderberg Crime

Watch, Vitus Schola, the Life

Church and United Church.

A recent debate on the Somerset

West Facebook page drew attention

to the plight of street people.

During theFacebookdebate there

was an appeal to law enforcement

to remove street people.

Although there is no bylaw that

prevents begging, VanMinnen said

that it is not a lack of law enforce-

ment that keeps people on the

streets, instead it is residents who

subsidise them, she said.

Thebylawonlyprohibitsaggres-

sivebeggingandblockingtheroad,

said Van Minnen.

The City of Cape Town recently

launched their Give Responsibly

campaign which aims to draw

awareness to the issue of the cycle

that is perpetuatedbygivingmoney

to street people.

Too often in the winter months,

Helderberg residents with big

hearts will pity beggars who stand

in thecoldandrainasking for finan-

cialsupport, saystheCitysmayoral

committee member for Social De-

velopment, councillor Suzette Lit-

tle.

Unfortunately, fieldworkers re-

port that people livingon the streets

feel that theymakemoremoneybeg-

ging and refuse assistance, says

councillor Stuart Pringle of ward 84

and chairperson of sub-council 22.

Pringle said living on the streets

is a dangerous, undignified exist-

ence and giving directly to street

people does not encourage them to

leave this lifestyle behind.

The campaign encourages people

to make donations to organisa-

tions that assist street people rath-

er thankeeping themonthestreets

in a pattern of dependency, said

Little.

Give Responsibly is a City of Cape

Town initiative that encourages Hel

derberg residents to not give hand

outs to people who beg but to

rather donate to local NGOs or to

purchase nightshelter vouchers.

wat die karnaval-

het.

Andr Paulsen, n

lid van dieGordons-

wat verantwoorde-

amptelike besoe-

kersgetalle is nog

nie bevestig nie,

maar voorlopig lyk

dit asof daar tussen

18 000 en 20 000 be-

soekers was. Hy s

dit is ietwat minder

volg van die weer,

maarhulle ismeer as tevredemet die

resultaat.

het Sondag besluit om die karnaval

na n tweede naweek uit te brei om

dieparadeteakkommodeerenomdie

stalletjie-eienaars en besoekers te

vergoed vir die slegte weer.

Om te voorkom dat die Winter

dit van n naweek tot n volle tien dae

te verleng. Dit skop aanstaande jaar

dat indien daar wr so n koue front

Die Winter Wonderland is geskep

ommense tydensdiekouemaandena

fees het veroorsaak dat Gordonsbaai

as top-toerismebestemming gesien

word.VerledejaarseWinterWonder-

land het n inkomste van amper

R6 miljoen aan di kusdorpie besorg,

asook ander meevallers, soos n fees-

ganger wat toe n huis in Gordons-

Newlook forSWNedbank

Nedbank in Somerset West recently over-

hauled not only its look, but also its system

to afford clients a more comfortable

banking experience.

Nelis de Necker, branch manager at Somer-

setWest, says thebiggest change in their opera-

tions is that tellersand informationclerkshave

beencombinedsothatbothservicescanbedone

at the same place. Another innovative change

is that the bank incorporated a seating queue

with comfortable couches to replace the stand-

ing queue.

On entering the bank, clients are met by a

service champion who helps clients to access

the service needed. Clients are given a number

in thequeueandcanwait their turnona couch,

equipped with an iPad. The bank also boasts

private video banking stations where clients

can Skype with a teller.

Internet and phone banking services are also

on offer with no charge to the customer. De

Necker says the renovations started on 24

March and were completed on 11 July. He says

the bank was only closed on four days, but tell-

ers were available to offer emergency services.

What doesmoneymean to you?

Establishing if you

have enough for re-

tirement is a fairly

simple exercise of

determining how

much income you

need to fund your

lifestyle and then

calculating how

much capital is re-

quired to provide

for this income us-

ing an assumed rate

of return, which is

governed by your

risk and return pro-

file.

Sounds likequiteamouthful, but

really fairly simple, which is why

I think there may be more to the

question do I have enough for re-

tirement than initially meets the

eye.

A good starting point

may be the favourite

question of holistic fi-

nancial planners,

what does money

mean to you. What is

the definition of

wealthy, is it the World

Banks classification

forHighNetWorthIndi-

viduals (HNWI) of

$1 million?

A friend of mine who

has had his fair expo-

sure towealthy individ-

uals believes that

wealth is a state of mind. This

seems to endorsemyperson-

al client experience where I

have been asked the ques-

tion do I have enough by

clients with very little to

those with fortunes, which they

will not spend in three lifetimes.

The answer to the question is cer-

tainly not an arbitrary number

based on a simple calculation, but

definitely something more.

Somay be the question is not do

I have enough but rather what

does money mean to me. Answer-

ing this question may unshackle

you from a lifetime of financial

slavery exploited by consumerism

and the need to keep up with the

Joneses. The person who earns

more thanhe spends and is content

with his life is wealthier than rich

man who feels poor and will never

ever be satisfied.

RaithbyUniversalsRugbyFootballClub

areoneof the success stories of theWest-

ern Province Rugby Football Union

(WPRFU) club rugby teams for the sea-

son to date.

Havingwonallninetheirmatchesthis

season, they have become serious title

contenders in the Super C League.

Theclubwasformedbytheamalgama-

tion ofRaithbyRFCandUniversalsRFC

in 1992. The town of Raithby has around

600 residents and it is truly amazing

what they have achieved by attracting

players from other surrounding towns.

Theclubs treasurer,RodneyBelchem

puts the success of the season down to

the structural changes that were imple-

mented at the start of the season.

He said that under coach Jeremy

Jansen, who was an assistant to Anwar

Josephs in 2011, the teamhas flourished.

Headdedthat insidecentreClintStew-

art and hooker Adrian Gordon have

been the standoutperformers in the first

team, which is captained by former pro-

vincial player Hein Gordon.

The next five matches are the biggest

in the clubs history starting with the

derby against Eerste River this week at

Raithbys home turf.
