NUMBERS INCREASE: RESIDENTS THREATENED
Vagrants turn violent
LEON STEENKAMP
A
s the number of vagrants in Table
View increases it seems their harass-
ing of residents is also becomingmore
threatening.
One such area that is plagued by vagrants
is a public open space in Central Park, Park-
lands.
A resident of a neighbouring block of flats
is now scared towalk outside alone after she
decided to voice her displeasure about the
vagrants that sleep in this park overnight.
I started chasing them away after a
neighbour of mine was robbed by a group of
vagrants, says the womanwho asked to not
be identified.
Threats to poison some residents dogs
have also caused her to back off.
I have heard that members of the 26 and
28 prison gangs are also among these va-
grants, she adds.
Threats
A local security guard has also brought
the wrath of the vagrants upon himself after
trying to show them the road.
Whenever they come to sleep here I
would chase them away so they now know
my face. They started threateningme, it was
in Afrikaans and I didnt understand it, but
one of the guys told me: They say they are
going to stab you, says Jacques Ntenga,
who has been a guard at one of the residen-
tial complexes for the past two months.
Recently whenmy girlfriend came to vis-
it me, they threatened her with a screwdriv-
er and I told her not come here again, says
Ntengawho is originally from theDemocrat-
ic Republic of Congo.
Lt Elizabeth Munro, spokesperson for the
Table View police says the problemwith the
vagrants is an ongoing one.
We together with Complex Patrols have
regular patrols in this area in Parklands.
She says although the majority of the va-
grants are people focused on scavenging
through rubbish bins for goods to sell to re-
cycling companies, there are some criminal
elements.
Criminals
Wehave found stolen goods in the posses-
sion of some of these vagrants and there are
criminals among them who pose as beg-
gars, she said.
She added that they believe that the use
of gang graffiti on some walls was a way of
deterring people from chasing them away.
We think they might be using this to try
and intimidate the work of the Table View
Neighbourhood Watch as well, she says.
Shelter
A local business owner Anthony Kettle
confirms it is a difficult situation.
They are found in the whole of Park-
lands, wherever there is shelter from the
wind and rain.
We find them sleeping in our doorway
and they leave a lot of rubbish behind, says
Kettle who runs a martial arts gym in Vil-
lage Walk.
He too has been threatened on one occa-
sion.

Members of the police mortu
ary remove a body that was
discovered in the stormwater
canal on the corner of Blaauw
berg Road and Otto du Plessis
on Monday afternoon. Members
of the Table View police were
stopped by pedestrians at 12:10
and alerted to a body lying in
the canal. Upon investigation
police found the body of a
known male vagrant of the
Table View area lying on his
stomach in the shallow water.
According to a friend of the
deceased, he suffered from
epileptic fits. The body was
taken to Salt River mortuary,
where an autopsy will deter
mine the cause of death.

FROM PAGE 1
One guy has pulled a knife onme but I gave
him a smack and that sorted it out. They
have broken some of the gymswindows and
spraypainted on the walls.
They are not overly aggressive but if they
have been drinking and you dont want to
give them money, they can be difficult. You
also dont want to be too aggressive with
them and chase them away because then
your place gets broken into.
Kettle is however sympathetic towards
the vagrants.
Rubbish
There is no place for them to go and
where can the police move them to? If they
move on from this area, they just become
some elses problem.
If they were neater it would not be such
a big problem. I have seen trucks pulling in-
to the area onweekends. These guys buy the
recyclable goods from the vagrants and all
the rubbish that they have stripped off then
simply gets left behind.
Thewomanwhoworks forme, cleans the
area twice a day. The rubbish has become
so bad I wait until the end of the month and
then I have to hire a trailer to remove all of
it.
Munro says members of the Displaced
Peoples Unit regularly join them during
their operations.
Manyof thesevagrantshavehomes inAt-
lantis but others have grown up on the
streets of Table View. Most of them do not
want tobe replaced. It isusually a futile exer-
cise to try and get them off the streets, she
explained.
This problem was addressed during a
large scale joint operationbetween theTable
View Community Police Forum (CPF), Ta-
ble View Neighbourhood Watch, Law En-
forcement and local police last week.
We have cleaned out the areas where the
vagrants sleep like Leonardo Park, behind
theKFC (at theLifestyleCentre) andCentral
Park, said Ken Spies, CPF chairman for
subgroup twowhich includesParklands and
Sunningdale.
Alcohol
Another big problem is however the
drinking that goes on at Leonardo Park dur-
ing the day. The vagrants buy cheap wine
there and then sit on the pavements and har-
ass passersby. We have had numerous com-
plaints from residents of the River Glade Re-
tirement Village about vagrants harassing
them for money, Spies explains.
This is however a law enforcement issue.
The problem is 10minutes after law enforce-
ment leaves the area, the vagrants are back.
Strategy needed
The neighbourhood watch and CPF can
only monitor the situation. It is an ongoing
exercise and is dependant on our number of
volunteers and resources. The council has
to decide how they are going to address this
vagrancy issue in an area that is probably
one of the fastest growing areas in the Cape.
We dont have a homeless shelter or a
community court and the city needs to pro-
vide a strategy to address the social-econom-
ic side of this problem.
At this stage the neighbourhood watch
and CPF are not solving the problem we are
only moving it around, Spies says.

Michelle Smit (21) van die Eric Miles-
Cheshire-huis in Milnerton kan nou op
haar eie rolstoel deur die gange van di te-
huis jaag, te danke aan verskeie Rotarir-
klubs en Solidariteit Helpende Hand.
Die gestremdeMichelle is verjeug dat sy
nou uiteindelik n gerieflike rolstoel het.
Ek kon amper nooit skoene gedra het
nie, wantmyvoete rus nie gemaklik op die
ou ene nie. Die stoel wat ek voor hierdie
een gehad het, was meer gemaklik, maar
ek het dikwels agteroorgeval, verduide-
lik sy.
Michelle glo sy sal nie dieselfde proble-
me ervaar met die nuwe rooi Ferrari,
soos een van die skenkers skertsend daar-
na verwys het, nie.
Michelle was amper ses jaar gelede in n
motorongeluk op die N1. Sy het nie net die
vermo verloor om te stap nie, maar ook
haar niggie en krel aan die dood afge-
staan.
Sedertdien was dit een groot gesukkel
om van punt A tot punt B te kom.
Erika Botha-Rossouw, die streeksorga-
niseerder (Wes-Kaap) van Solidariteit Hel-
pende Hand, het die plaaslike Rotarirs in
kennis gestel van Michelle se probleem.
Ek kenMichelle sedert 2010 toe ek haar
ontmoet het in moeilike omstandighede.
Liret Swanepoel van Solidariteit het ook
betrokke geraak en selfs vir Michelle n
partytjie gehou met haar 21ste verjaars-
dag!
Die Helpende Hand-streekkantoor het
reeds in 2011 bydie tehuis betrokkegeraak
en verskeie verbeteringe aangebring om
die inwoners se lewensgehalte te verbeter.
Helpende Hand het die lewensomstan-
dighede van Michelle verbeter deur haar
in die tehuis te plaas en haar kamer op te
knap.
Verlede jaar is van die ander kamers
ook verbeter.
Ons het geweet dat die inwoners van
die tehuis dikwels afhanklik is van die
staat se karige ongeskiktheidspensioen,
s Erika.
Die pensioen is skaars voldoende om
hul verblyf te betaal en laat nie veel oor
vir enigiets anders nie.
In die volgende drie weke sal die Rotari-
ers 110 rolstoele oorhandig aan behoefti-
ges inKaapstad te dankeaandie Internasi-
onale Rotarir-rolstoelstigting.

A big hello: The presence of whales late in the year allowed Bloubergstrand photographer Teneal Gerry to grab this shot last Thursday.
There were two paddlers just off Bloubergstrand beach, one was very lucky and managed to pass by just as this whale surfaced, the
whales stayed with the paddlers for quite some time, Teneal said. PHOTO: TENEAL GERRY
TANDYLEE MARINUS
Sea rescue personnel had to assist a canoe-
ist on Monday afternoon after he ran into
trouble along the Milnerton coast.
Christiaan Beyers (23) from Loevenstein
suffered hypothermia after his canoe sunk
close to Woodbridge Island.
Frantically waving his arms and shout-
ing for help, Beyers caught the attention of
a person sitting on their balconywho called
in the distress call to the NSRI.
Station commander Rhine Barnes of the
National Sea Rescue Institute (NSRI) in
Melkbosstrand, said they were alerted to
the situation at about 14:30. After dispatch-
ing the rescue boat they foundBeyers adrift
half a kilometrenorth of theMinerton light-
house opposite the Sunset Links Golf Es-
tate.
We arrived at the scene and Christiaan
was very hypothermic and cold, but unin-
jured.
Michael Mcdonald (19) who was playing
golf at the Milnerton Golf course also no-
ticed Beyers predicament and rushed to
the beach to help.
Medical personnel arrived at the scene
shortly after and transported Beyers to the
Milnerton Mediclinic. He was discharged
on Monday evening.
Barnes confirmed that Beyers had forgot-
ten to insert a bung, which is a type of
drainage plug in the hull of the canoe.
Barnes said although it is an uncommon
mistake, it just illustrates how important it
is to have the necessary equipment.
Whats important is that he did have a
life jacket on but he should have had flares
which would have helped a lot, Barnes
said.
He also advised otherwatersport enthusi-
asts to inform friends or family when they
are going out onto the ocean.
Tell them how long youwill be andwhat
time you are expected to be back, this will
allow them to notify emergency services if
something happens, he explained.
V The Melkbosstrand NSRI is currently recruiting
new members from ages 16 and up. Anyone inter
ested can contact Rhine Barnes on 082 990 5958.

Nuwe waardasies vir al 850 000 eiendomme
in die Stad Kaapstad word van 1 Julie ge-
bruik vir die berekening van eiendomsbe-
lasting.
Eiendomseienaars sal van 14 Februarie
af kennisgewings ontvangoorwat dienuwe
waardasie vanhul eiendomme is. Diwaar-
dasies is gebaseer op die waarde van eien-
domme op 1 Julie 2012. Altesame 600 000 re-
sidensile eiendomme is gewaardeer. Dit
sluit nie die sowat 15 000 deeltitel-eiendom-
me in nie.
Volgens Leonore van der Walt, stads-
raadslid vir wyk 2, sal die nuwe eiendom-
swaardasies van 1 Julie vanjaar gebruik
word om eiendomsbelasting vas te stel.
Dit beteken nie dat eiendomsbelasting
met dieselfde persentasie gaan toeneem as
wat die onderskeie eiendomme in waarde
toegeneem het nie, het sy ges. Die stads-
raad begroot wat die eiendomsbelasting vir
die nuwe boekjaar van 1 Julie 2013 tot 30
Junie 2014 sal wees. Eiendomsbelasting
word hiervolgens op die nuwe eiendoms-
waardes bereken.
Eiendomseienaarswatnie saamstemmet
die nuwe waardasies nie, kry vanjaar twee
en n half maande tyd om beswaar aan te
teken. Ingevolge wetgewing moet eiendom-
seienaars 30 dae tyd vir besware gegee
word. Die beswaartydperk is van 21 Febru-
arie tot 30 April.
Die nuwe waardasies sal op die Stad se
webtuiste beskikbaar wees. Geen besware
wat na 30 April ontvangword,mag ingevol-
ge wetgewing deur die munisipaliteit oor-
weeg word nie, waarsku Leonore.
Eienaars van eiendomme sal van 14 Fe-
bruarie deur die munisipaliteit oor die nu-
we waardasies ingelig word. Daar is alte-
saam 17 munisipale punte waar die beswa-
re ingedien kan word. Die munisipale
geboue in Parow en Bellville en die burger-
sentrum in Kaapstad is van hulle.
Indien beswaar gemaak word teen n
waardasie, word die belasting op die nuwe
waardasie gehef totdat die beswaar afge-
handel is. Daar kan beswaar gemaak word
teen enigiets waarmee die eienaar nie
saamstem nie. Selfs huurders kan beswaar
maak. Iemand kan ook by n munisipale
kantoor beswaar maak teen die waardasie
van n eiendom in sy omgewing. Indien n
eiendom uit die waardasierol weggelaat is,
word eiendomsbelasting terugwerkend
van 1 Julie 2013 af bereken sodra dit regge-
stel word.
Besware teen die waardasies van Julie
2006 het twee jaar geneem om afgehandel
te word en die besware teen Julie 2009 se
waardasies een jaar. Hierdie keer mik ons
na ses maande om besware af te handel.
Elke detailwat opdie vormsgevraword,
moet ingevul word, anders kan n deurdag-
te evaluasie van die besware nie gemaak
word nie. Ons het n regsmening hieroor in-
gewin. Dit is belangrik. Enigiemand wat
sukkel om die beswaarvorms in te vul, sal
deur munisipale amptenare gehelp word.
Eiendomseienaars kan ook insae kry in die
verkooppryse van eiendomme in hul omge-
wing, s Leonore.
Nuwewaardasies
vir eiendomme
The City of Cape Town has strengthened its
partnership with the Southern African
Foundation for the Conservation of Coastal
Birds (Sanccob).
This foundation is responsible for preser-
ving South Africas vulnerable seabird spe-
cies, including the African penguin.
The past theme for World Environment
Awareness, where the city participated
withvarious educational drives about envi-
ronmental resource management, also fo-
cused on the effects of pollution and climate
change on polar ecosystems, and the ensu-
ing consequences around the world.
Chairperson of De Grendel Subcouncil,
JamesVos, explains that all types of polluti-
on are key factors in the health of a city,
represent a major health risk to our citi-
zens, and also portray Cape Town in a nega-
tive way to tourists and residents alike. He
adds that previous municipal legislation
wasnothittinghard enoughat thebig facto-
ries responsible for much of the noxious,
contaminating emissions that defile our
air, and that the existing air pollution cont-
rol bylaw of council was amended because
it is out of date and insufficiently stringent.
In addition, the city has expanded its ve-
hicle emission testing programme, targe-
ting not only big fleet owners, but also loo-
king at city-owned vehicles such as refuse
removal trucks.
It is the responsibility of every person
to protect existing trees and encourage the
planting of new ones to stem the negative
consequences of carbon emissions, says
Vos.
He also points out that judging by the
available facts on global warming, human
beings have a poor track record in caring
and managing our environment.
It is a known fact that trees are essential
in the production of oxygen and the reducti-
on of hot house gases. The City of Cape
Town therefore welcomes the contribution
by every resident who helps to plant trees,
not only duringArbourMonthheld annual-
ly in September, but throughout the year.
Pollution danger to ecosystems

Rescue Campaign by visiting www.sanccob.co.za.

Vivacious visit: Bollywood actresses Kired Bhaddal, Archana Vijaya and Barbara Mori
visited Eric Miles Cheshire Home in Milnerton on Friday and plan to donate some much
needed funds to the home. The three, along with a 20man strong film crew are in South
Africa to shoot a travel show. Among the activities included skydiving and going up Table
Mountain, but they felt their visit to South Africa must include some charity work as well.
They also mingled a bit with the homes residents, who were obviously in awe of their
beauty. PHOTO: ANDR BAKKES

Approximately 100 Joe Slovo residents in-
vadedanopen fieldbelonging toOldMutual
on Thursday evening with the intention of
claiming the land for themselves.
Milnerton police acted quickly and
nipped the invasion in the bud.
Spokesperson, W/O Daphne Dell, con-
firms that a case of trespassing was opened
by Old Mutual, but to date no arrests have
been made.
The trespassers apparently marched to
the land in the early morning hours, de-
stroyed a part of the surrounding fence and
started demarcating the territory.
Dell says the idea was that they would
start building their shacks as soon as they
had figured out who would live where.
If we didnt act quickly it could have
been awful. Our members came across the
people while they were hammering stakes
into the land, she says.
Ward councillor JoyMcCarthy adds a dif-
ferent slant to the affairswhen she says that
the ringleaders will be prosecuted in ac-
cordance with an interdict which has re-
cently been made against them by the City
of Cape Town.
Tygerburger reported on this last week
(Housing queue jumped).
Says McCarthy: The ringleaders incited
others to invade the land during a meeting.
People must understand that housing does
not fall under local government, but nation-
al. She also adds that these invaders are
not only working against the DA, but also
the Joe Slovo Park community.

The song of the secretive bird, the Baillons
crake, might at first seem as odd as people
flying all the way from Johannesburg to
steal a glimpse of this rare bird, ticking it
off on their list and then flying back again.
This oddity by birdwatchers is, however,
absolutely justified when it is driven by pas-
sion.
Their need to see that bird, even if it is for
just 40 seconds, is worth more than their
time and money.
On 19 January a Baillons crake was spot-
ted at Intaka Island in Century City.
The news hit Twitter and Facebook, went
viral, and soon hundreds of infatuated bird-
lovers descended on to the bird sanctuary.
The gates opened an hour-and-a-half earli-
er every morning and repeated sightings of
the bird enticed even more to flock to
ground zero.
Alan Liebenberg of Century Citys Envi-
ronmental Office elaborates: It created a
stir among tweeters and photographers who
have been descending in their droves in the
hope of catching a glimpse of this normally
very elusive bird. We have one previous
record of it being spotted at Intaka back in
the late 1990s, but it disappeared on the same
day it was seen.
Liebenberg confirms that people came all
the way from Johannesburg to witness the
special bird.
He adds that since the best chance one has
to see it is early in themorning, they opened
the gates at 06:00 instead of 07:30.
It is a very small and solitary creature
and indeed very rare and is usually found
near the coastline or in marshy areas. Peo-
ple will sit for three hours just to see it for
half a minute!
Liebenberg says he isnt an avid birder,
but admits that he does have an interest in
the hobby.
Three years ago fewer than 10 000 people
went to the sanctuary but last year this fig-
ure rose to 20 000.
According to him it is a fantastic place
to go and take photos and enjoy the avian
wildlife.
When asked what the Baillons crake
sounds like he said it is very difficult to ex-
plain it.
So, I will take a pop at it. It sounds some-
thing like...
A frog saying goodbye to theworld (majes-
tically, mind you) while it is slowly being
squeezed in a vice.
Crake causes birder

An elusive Baillons Crake.
Full steam ahead: The Elkanah House Senior Primary teaching staff has adopted an All
Aboard theme for 2013. To celebrate the launch of the theme, they travelled on a steam
train from Cape Town to Simons Town on Sunday 13 January. Here they are, after enjoying
a lunch they then journeyed back to Cape Town on the same train all eager to make
2013 the best year yet at the Senior Primary School.
A vegetation fire which broke out in the
Morningstar area in Melkbosstrand at 15:25
on Monday has been brought under control.
The cause of such fires are usually un-
known, Theo Layne, from the Fire and Res-
cue service said yesterday morning.
The vegetation fire was however dealt
with and the necessary precautionarymeas-
ures were being taken.
Although vegetation fires are difficult to
control, no dangers or fatalities have been
reported and rescue teams are dealing with
it. Laynes said. He said the weather and
wind conditions are contributing factors.

The incessant barking of a neighbours dog
probably rates rightup thereon themajority
of peoples list of top 10 irritations.
Something was however different from
the barking Taubelle Gersh heard on the
morning of 21 December from her house in
Milnerton.
The owner of four dogs herself, Taubelles
sympathetic ear picked up something else in
the barking that others would shrug off as
the acting out of a frustrated pooch.
I was playing with my four dogs in my
garden when I heard this incessant barking
of a dog in the neighbourhood. It wasnt a
normal bark, it sounded as if the dog was in
danger, Taubelle said.
As the barking continued for another
hour, a worried Taubelle decided to investi-
gate.
As it happened the house which the noisy
dog called homewas in Redlands Road at the
back of Taubelles house in Sheldon Road.
I knocked but no one was home. Being
vigilant I didnt want to investigate on my
own. If it was a burglary in progress I might
put myself in danger, she explained.
She phoned theMilnertonNeighbourhood
Watch and shortly one of their members
joined her at the house.
He looked around and then called me
over to come have a look. As I looked
through an open window I saw a dog stand-
ing on a table with the curtain entangled
around its neck. I told the man to not scare
the dog, fearing that it might jump off the
table and strangle itself. The barking came
from another dog on the property some-
where which I could not see.
Being a passionate dog lover, Taubelle
gently approached the distressed dog.
Sowithmy angelic voice I coaxed the dog
closer, she joked.
I managed to grab hold of it and with my
other hand I was able to untangled the cur-
tain from around its neck. What amazed me
was that the other dog was barking to alert
people to the situation, she said.
Taubelle asked the NeighbourhoodWatch
member if he knew who lived there. When
she got thename she lookedup the telephone
number and gave the owner, Bev Hoffman,
a ring.
I was very tearful and emotional, Angel
is my daughters dog. She studies at Stellen-
bosch and was coming home that weekend,
imagine if she got here and something had
happened to Angel, said a very grateful
Bev.
The 12-year-old Angel and eight-year-old
Kim, the heroine in this case, were rescue
dogs that Bev got from the Adopt-A-Pet or-
ganisation.
I am just so grateful that Taubelle lis-
tened to her inner voice.

continous barking alerted neighbour Taubelle

The social outreach programme a local ani-
mal charity has launched in informal settle-
ments, has led to a complete turn in how the
residents view their animals.
The pro-life animal charity in Milnerton
Adopt-a-Pet has been working in Sweet
Home Farm, Philippi since July 2011.
We started tending to the animals there,
after there were rumours of a pack of dogs
dragging a child out of a shack and mauling
her. The community then turned on the
stray dogs and were intent on killing them,
says Cicely Blumberg of Adopt-a-Pet.
It was while visiting the settlement at
around 06:00 one morning in the middle of
winter that they met one Edward.
He was in a terrible situation.
He was living in a shack no bigger than
a toilet and he was very sick. We told him
that we will build him a wendy house before
Mandelas birthday.
With the help of some volunteers and do-
nations, Cicely andher team thenmade good
on their promise.
Seeing what they did for Edward, some of
the mothers approached them and asked
whether they are from the government.
We told them we are only there to help
the animals, but theywanted us to help them
with their children.
I didnt know what to say, and off the top
ofmyhead I suggested getting them involved
in sport.
I had a notebook with me and said any
children interested in playing soccer or net-
ball should sign up.
It is through this initiative that they met
the 14-year-old Ebenathi and a friend.
We saw a scared looking dog which we
had trouble catching.
These two boys went down on their
haunches in the mud and called the dog to
them, and it started leopard crawling its way
to them.
This would prove to be a turning point in
the lives of Ebenathi and the lives of the dis-
regarded animals in the settlement.
Ebenathi still has the dog they rescued
that day.
He is now awatcher for all animals in dis-
tress in Sweet Home Farm. If he comes
across ananimal that is in trouble, hephones
us, an excited Cicely says.
The weekend before last he phoned us
about a little kitten he found in a dustbin.
We went out and rescued him, Cicely says.
However, another emergency call from the
sympathetic Ebenathi regarding a dog and
its puppies that appeared to have been driv-
en over by a car, did not have such a happy
ending.
The dogs appeared to have been dead for
quite a while when we got there, she says.
Cicely is grateful for the way children like
Ebenathi have been given an understanding
of life.
The place where they live is so difficult.
There is nothing.
Previously they would torture and kill
the animals andnow they are helping to save
their lives, she says.
The Safety Ambassadors social upliftment
programme they run in areas like Philippi
is aimed at showing the people who live
there, a different way of life.
We take the children to placeswhere they
havent been before. Recently I took
Ebenathi and his mother to the Waterfront
and we took them on a boat ride around the
harbour.
If you teach a young child to respect life
they will convey that thinking to the next
generation. It also serves as a crime preven-
tion programme and seems to be working,
she adds.
V Volunteers who would like to get involved with
AdoptaPet or who would like to donate towards
their cause can contact Cicely Blumberg on
021 465 4560 or visit www.adoptapet.org.za.

Cease fire and
start listening
to real needs
Cease fire! one wants to scream. Can
everyone just put their guns, sticks,
stones, posters, and yes, pens down, shut
up and listen to each other? Can we stop
destroying our surroundings and saddest
of all, each other?
Everywhere everyone is yelling for
this, demanding that. Youll swear every
single soul is being denied even the most
basic of rights. Who doesnt want more
money, a better house, better services,
better education and more opportunities?
This need is insatiable the more you
have, the more you want especially
political power.
In a democracy nobody gets what they
want. Everything is a compromise. We
strive towards being sort-of satisfied. To
get to this point, we should listen. Not
just shut up to reload the word gun, but
put you in the other partys shoes the
real party understand their concerns
and their real needs, and stop focusing
on your own screwed up urge to get to
the top.
What is prevalent everywhere, is people
trying to wipe each other out, whether by
weapons or words. Nobody is listening.
Least of all is anyone listening to the real
victims of all these egoistic wars and
struggles for power. Who are listening to
honest people just trying to get on with
their lives, doing their jobs, raising their
children? They are the people who have
to live with this dodge the bullets,
bearing the brunt of others greed.
Please, just hold your fire.

I refer to the letter (Cyclists
should start thinking about the
motorists on roads, TygerBur-
ger, 23 January).
I am a cyclist and from your
letter I assume that you are
not and never was one.
The death of Burry Stander
had me questioning myself if I
should continue to cycle or
rather take up another sport
which I rather can do on a
field or indoors.
I cycle almost everyday and
when I get home, I thank the
Lord that I got back safely. I
agree with you that we as
cyclist have to look after our
own safety, but surely you as a
motorist also have a responsi-
bility to look out for me.
Numerous times we have near
misses of trucks and cars that
pass us within the safe 1.5
meter zone.
Some cars will pass you just
to turn right in front of you so
that you have to slam on the
brakes.
You say that cyclist ride
outside the yellow line and
that you have to sit behind
them. We have just been to
Ireland in December, there the
cars do sit behind the cyclists,
where there is no yellow line,
and wait for a gap to pass
them safely without putting
anybodys lives in danger. And
that is the norm, because they
respect each others right to be
on the road.
You mention that you have
to drive into the oncoming
traffic, but if you regard a
cyclist as just another road
user, you will wait until it is
safe to pass like you will do
with another motor vehicle.
You also mention that
Government should make it a
law that all cyclist must be
registered and display a
registration number. A big
number of Mountain bikers in
the Western Cape already
belong to various clubs, like
the Tygerberg Mountainbike
Club (TBMC) and everybody
displays their own specific
This cycling issues
is a twoway street
In response to the letter
(Cyclists should start thinking
about the motorists on roads,
TygerBurger, 23 January).
I am both a cyclist and
motorist and have travelled the
Bottelary Road many times on
both of these forms of trans-
port.
I do agree that there are
large groups of cyclists that use
this very popular cycling route
from time to time, and also
agree that some are misbehav-
ing by riding three or four
abreast. The various Western
Cape cycling clubs and regional
bodies are working hard to
address these problems.
Cyclists, like all other
vehicles, are not supposed to
ride inside the yellow lines,
they do so out of courtesy to
faster vehicles and for self
preservation to some extent.
There needs to be a serious
paradigm shift in the way all
road users in SA think
motorists, cyclists, taxis, the
whole lot, towards a mentality
of live and let live.
The Argus Cycle Tour is
coming up soon and the roads
are going to be flooded with
cyclists, so perhaps, if only for
two months, motorists can
accept them with some grace
then perhaps some lives can be
saved and stress levels lowered

I am deeply disappointed that
the driver who knocked and
scratched my car just drove off.
I parked behind Checkers
supermarket on Sunday 13
January. I was in the store for
20 minutes and when I came
out my silver Polo was badly
scratched by someone that did
not have the decency to wait
for me to come out the store or
leave his/her phone number...
come forward like a decent
person and admit that you
damaged my vehicle and not a
coward that runs away.

In reply to Mr De Kocks letter
(Cyclists should start thinking
about the motorists on roads,
TygerBurger, 23 January).
Your statement that cyclists
should take responsibility for
their own safety is correct, but
I have a few concerns.
I am a cyclist myself and use
the Bottelary Road regularly. I
always ride as far left on the
shoulder of the road as possi-
ble. At stop streets and robots I
go to the front, but always
ensure that I stay out of the
way of cars not to delay or
obstruct them when they pull
away. Even though I am a very
considerate cyclist, I have an
unpleasant incident every
single time I go riding and not
once has it been my fault.
What your article does not
mention is the motorists total
disregard of road rules, the
impatience, intolerance and
general lawlessness on our
roads the cause of death and
serious accidents on our roads.
The solution is, we all need
to obey the rules of the road, to
have respect for other road
users, to be more patient and
tolerant towards one another.

if you have any trouble with
any cyclist and you can get

to see that it is compulsory for

allowed to ride where any car
is riding be that in the middle
of the lane or next to the white
line. Maybe then people will
regard us with more respect.

Die Melkbosstrand-polisie is
steeds op soek na die verdag-
te in n huisroof en verkrag-
ting, wat oor die naweek op
nnabyekleinhoeweplaasge-

Die voorval het Saterdag
tussen 19:00 en 20:00 in die

Sy het n geraas by haar
woning gehoor en gaan on-
dersoek instel.
Toe die vrou by die ber-
gingshouer kom, wat sy as n
blyplek huur, is sy deur n
jong swart man gekonfron-
teer.
Hyhet haarmet nmes ge-
dreig en binne in die ber-
gingshouer gedwing. Hy het
haar van haar skootreke-
naar, selfoon en geld beroof
en toe verkrag.
Die man het toe die klaer
in die houer toegesluit en ge-
vlug. Sy het daarin geslaag
om die gebreekte deur oop te
dwing en het haar na die bu-
re gehaas vir hulp.
Volgens die slagoffer is die
swart man in sy laat twin-
tigs. Hy is wel ter tale in bei-
de Afrikaans en Engels, was
geklee in n donkerblou pet,
wit hemp, bruin langbroek
en donker Crocs-skoene. Hy
het n uitsonderlike smal

Di rit is van uiterse belang vir die vereni-
ging, wat geldelik swaarkry.
Die vereniging bevind hom in geldelike
nood n sy grootste donateur hulle vanjaar
nie ondersteun het nie. Buiten vir uiters
noodsaaklike geldinsameling, sal die toer
ook sterk fokus op die bewusmaking van
Downsindroom.
Tineke Boshoff (skakelpersoon: DSVWK)
s die DSVWK moes noodgedwonge einde
November personeellede se dienste bein-
dig.
Noodsaaklike dienste gaan voort danksy
die bereidwilligheid van vrywilligers om
sonder vergoeding te werk, s sy.
Sy s di sindroom is die mees algemene
genetiese oorsaak van verstandelike ge-
stremdheid. Een uit elke 800 babas in Suid-
Afrika word daarmee gebore. Dit is iets wat
ons almal raak, s Tineke.
Sy s die DSVWK is daartoe verbind om
maniere te vind om die lewensgehalte van
persone met Downsindroom te verbeter.
Die vereniging beywer hom vir die bevor-
dering van dimense se reg tot onafhanklik-
heid, waardigheid en sekerheid as volwaar-
dige lede van die gemeenskap.
Dit behels die bemagtiging en ondersteu-
ning aan personemet Downsindroom en hul
gesinne, bewusmaking deur verspreiding
van inligting, sosiale interaksie-geleenthe-
de, inklusiewe onderwys en werkskepping.
Tineke sPPCSementhet reeds n donasie
van R6 000 gemaak.
Die toerword vanjaar die 13de keer ten ba-
te van die DSVWK getrap. Marius Franken
van Parow-Noord ry per voertuig saam met
die fietsryers envier verteenwoordigers van
die DSVWK, waarvan twee met Downsin-
droom, gaanook saam.Gert is fisiekgestrem
en ry met n aangepaste fiets.
Geldword langs die pad ingesamelmet be-
hulp van skole en veral nie-winsgewende or-
ganisasies, soos die Lions.
Beulah Matthee, vrywillige werker van
die DSVWK, wat reeds die afgelope vier jaar
die relings vir die fietstoer behartig, s
voor die groep vertrekword soveelmoontlik
skole gekontak vir ondersteuning.
Skole langs die pad hou muntleggings en
op van die dorpe loop vroue vooraf met kol-
lektelyste deur die dorp, s sy.

donsbaai,RiviersonderendenHeidelberg en
