ROMANUS Frans Munango yesterday confirmed that the planning of the murder of the late Anton Lubowski had been done at a meeting the Suiderhof military base inJuly 1989, when Untag occupied the premises.
This emerged under cross-questioning by defence counsel Hennie Bamard in the inquest into the death of the Swapo activist.
After describing the meeting which Munango claimed was held in the canteen of Suiderhof Base, Barnard put it
to him that it could not have taken place at that time as the base had been taken over and solely manned by Untag (United Nations Transitional Assistance Group) since April I 1989. It was further "unlikely that a murder plan would take place in a canteen where Untag could enter at any time".
Munamm was adamant that the meeting had takf'O place there, and added that he had in fact seen Untag members on the premises.

Free hot water for life !
Since nothing comes cheaper than natural energy from the sun , why not use it for your domestic hot water supply?
The solar powered HotTop is a n ideal alternative for hot water heating, specifically developed for use in isolated regions. Like on farms or in communal areas , where conventional power is not always avaiable.
HotTop's capacity of 100 liters, stored in two heat absorbing pillows, provides enough hot wate~ for the needs of a family .
The functional design makes the system extremely robust and reliable and HotTop requires no maintenance since it contains no moving parts. A build-in protection anode and the vitreous enamel coating prevents the formation of line deposits. Hence, frost during winter and material becoming brittle because of Namibias harsh environmental conditions are problems of the past.
HotTop's most attractive features is its affordability. Because of the simple design, it costs around one third of typical solar sys- • tems. Once installed, it runs for free.
We want you making the right choice right from the start. If you require more information on NEe's wide range of hot water systems for urban and rural areas, talk to Niko Bruckner or Reintiold Reiss , Tel. 36720.

surrounding Lubowski 's home, as well as photographs of the house . Munango said the photographs had been taken by himself and Staal Burger. Present at the Suiderhof meeting, according to Munango , were Badenhorst, Jumbo Smit, Attie Nel, Theuns van der Merwe, Des Radmore, Riaan White, JJ van Wyk, Pedro d'Almeida, Francisco Gonsalves and others whom he "could not reme mber". Asked if Staal Burger was present, Munango said he had arrived late. It was at this meeting that the planning for the assassination had been done, and a date agreed upon, Munango said.
The witness said the final meeting oc~urred outside the municipal swimming pool in the parking area. This took was on the evening of the murder. Present were Theuns van der Merwe, driving a Cressida, and Staal Burger and Riaan White and another who arrived in a red Golf, The witness, with d ' Almeida and Gonsalves had arrived in a white Combi. In the parking area, Munango said, Theuns van der Merwe had dished out weapons from his boot. Two rifles, covered in a black canvas, were given to Burger and White as wel1 as silencers. Munango had taken two AK-47s and an RPG-7, The three had then driven off separately.
Munango denied Staal Burger had been given a sniper's rifle with tel escopic sights by Badenhorst, as one of his statements clai med. Bamard again pointed out to the witness that he was again contradicting himself.
When Judge Levy asked the witness why he had not changed inaccuracies in his statements, Munango said the police said he could elaborate in court. The Judge asked whether Munango was tell ing him that a police officer, who was taking a statement under oath, would allow him to commit perjury, saying he could correct it when he came to court. Munango replied in the affirmative .
The case is'continuing.

A FORMER principal of the Onangalo Combined School and a second year student at the University of Namibia, Etuhole Namukuwa Kaapangelwa, apparently _ shot herself through the head on Tuesday afternoon.
The fatal shooting took place in her bedroom at Onangalo village after Etuhole had returned home from Windhoek for the long weekend.
Her husband Geas Kaapangelwa, who is an Inspector of Schools, was not at home at the time.
The reason why she committed suicide has not been established as Etuhole apparently left no letter.
Members of the community have found the suicide strange. They said women in Owambo did not usually use a gun to commit suicide, but hanged themselves.

Swapo slams shooting
TYAPPA NAMUTEWA
SW APO has strongly condemned what it described as the " racial" killing of Willbard Naobeb, who was shot dead near Karibib on Tuesday, while he and two friends were standing next to the road waiting for a lift.
The ruling party also condemned the granting of bail to the suspects, Manuel de Freites Bacalhau, 19 and a minor, on a public holiday.
Swapo secretary of information and pUblicity, Alpheus N aruseb said yesterday: "We can do without incidents of this nature." Naruseb said his party would ask for an explanation from the Ministry of Justice about the granting of bail to one of the suspects and the placement of the other in the care of his parents.
Jeremiah Nambinga, Swapo secretary for labour told reporters they had been forced to respond to this case because of its brutality and because of a public outcry from party supporters over the case.
The two Swapo officials appealed to their members not to take the law into own hands and to

Speaking to a handful of reporters at a press conferenc~ convened on the eve of the holiday weekend, Malima said media reports were "exaggerated". He did not dispute tbe accuracy of a leaked report from German agency Cap Anamur, which claimed the base could explode with the force of a tactical nuclear weapon. But he said steps had already started being taken and were continuing on splitting up the concentration of ammunition at Grootfontein.
The Ministry would not give precise details of what was being done. One step would be to move detonators and more explosive parts
Malima had no comment when asked if the Cap Anamur report vindicated Colonel Des Radmore. Radmore had given slightly less serious warnings about the Grootfontein base in an internal report which was leaked to media early last year. President Sam Nujoma publicly called Radmore a liar and said the base was safe. Cap Anamur concluded Radmore was technically right, but had under-estimated the full scale of the potential disaster. It appears Cap Anamur was not invited back for a second visit.

Malima s,aid Cap Anamur"was more concerned with the concentration of large quantities of explosives and ammunition at one place" . Steps were taken to reduce ammunition and explosives stores well before their report. "However, there was a' major disagreement between Cap Anamur and ourselves when they insisted on knowing the new locations to which the ammunition was being'moved."

THE first commemor ation of Press Freedom Day in Namibia (and indeed the world at large) could by all standards be declared a success. And it is fitting that we in Nam ib ia, home of the Windhoek Declaration which has already achieved international renown, achieved no
small measure of reconciliation on this day.
IT WAS at a meeting in Namibia in 1991 of journalists from across the African continent organised by Unesco's Ed Moyo, that the Windhoek Declaration was born. And it was as a direct result of the adoption of, and universal praise for the Windhoek Declaration, that International Press Freedom Day on May 3 was declared by the United Nations General Assembly last year. And so Namibian media commemorated this day with no small measure of pride. Namibian President Sam Nujoma gave the celebration of this day his stamp of approval by his presence and his address to the gathering. SADC's General Secretary, Kaire Mbuende, received a petition from Namibian media on the commemoration of Press Freedom Day and I was encouraged to hear him say that "we in SADC subscribe to the view that independent and pluralistic media are the bedrock of genuine democracy which in turn is a prerequisite for people-centred socio--economic development. We recognise that regional integration will remain a plpedream unless the peoples of the r egion determine its content, form and direction. A free press is their weapon and vehicle for doing so" . Everyone is aware that the state of the media in ·the region varies from a most optimistic scenario in Namibia to the most negative one in Angola. In several other countries of the region, the picture is not an entirely happy one regarding prt:ss freedom, but if SADC is now intent on a path of co-operation with the me-
. dia as promised by Mbuende, then I have no doubt that things will begin to improve dramatically where they have not already begun to do so. A free and independent press is indispensable in a democracy~ But it is in those countries where democracy does not exist and where journalists place themselves in the firing line to expose corrupt and oppressive regimes, where independent press is even more crucial. Democratic governments don ' t always enjoy a critical press, and undemocratic governments tend to use all means at their disposal to muzzle freedom of expression. We who are now in more fortunate situations should therefore unite with our brothers and sisters in the region, the ,continent and the world, to give them the courage and conviction and commitment to continue with their struggle. In this sense Press Freedom Day is our weapon, and the Windhoek Declaration our ammunition to speak out on behalf of journalistic colleagues the world over w'ho suffer and die because of a commitD)etU to the truth. Namibianmedia have been hopelessly divided in the past and reconciliation or coming together has been rare. It ·was therefore immensl!ly encouraging to note that the commemoration of Press F reedom Day in Namibia· was marked by attendance of media workers from across the entire spectrum and a measure of unity was achieved.

SPEAKING to reporters recently , and quoting his statement published in The Namibian of April 13, the Nampol District Commissioner Udo Klopfer charged that "many white police ,officers were no longer wanted in the Namibian police force".
Commissioner Klopfer's view represent if at all, a s~all group of unpatriotic and non-nationaii st Namib ians, both in the force and in the general public.
Fi rstl y, we as Namibians toge ther fought and liberated this country from foreign occupation, domination and colonialism. After their defeat, both at the battlefield and in the ballot box, we established a peaceful, stable and democratic system based on the concept of n'ational reconciliation. A system where all our people, irrespective of their colour, tribe and ethnic group, enjoy the concept of human rights and fundamental freedoms enshrined in our constitution.

Chapter 15 Article I 15 stipulates very clearly that "There shall be established by Act of Parliament a Namibian Police Force with prescribed powers, duties and procedures in order to secure the internal security of Namibia and to maintain law and order".
To prove beyond doubt that Commi"ssioner Klopfer 's views are contrary to the wishes and aspirations of the people and Government, I hereby quote from the Namibian PoIic~ Act 19 of 1990: "There is hereby established a police force to be known as the Namibian Pol ice which

I SUGGEST that the person responsible for the CD World disc reviews, in future do all the reviews for the hot new releases column. After all, avid music fans are interested in sound information regarding the music scene, seeing that this may be the only reporting to be taken seriously these days.
Big G refers to L Rae Dowling (Namibian Weekender 22 April) three times as 'Downing'. Did he (obviously only a man would call himself big anything!) actually see the cassette for the spelling, let alone listen to it, to be able to give an opinion on the music itself.
Even worse, he refers to the release of The Spaniard ' four years ago' three times very specifically and in an uncalled for and inappropriate political text. (Never mind that the facts are quite wrong and he makes a fool of himself anyway).
This makes one wonder about other music reviews by this individual. Real music lovers might not know everything, but there are some basics that are important, like the spelling of a name and chronological info. Goodness, had he even heard of L Rae Dowling before the review? She has been on the scene for more than a decade after the release of The Spaniard. I am'also not a fan,of,he(s, put a keen interest in music on the whole has rewarded me with some very basic knowledge on ,the subec; t, as it has others who also love music.
I am not sure what qualifies a person to report on music, but whatever it is, I get the idea that Big G does not even have the most basic requirement i.e love for music for its own sake. One could even forgive him for the inaccurate review if he had not written it with such self-righteousness and pomp!

If we are to build a peaceful, stable and prosperous Namibiaand if our aims and objectives are geared at unit·ing ,the. future genera.tions of this country , irofespeotive of\colour, into a-cohereRt nation, then indjvidual police members and some members of the public should learn to reason humanely and logically, and understand that it is a natural phenomenon that every person has his/ her own weaknesses.
Naturally every person has his or her own peccadillo or sma ll weakness. It is therefore logical to say that, all members of the police, irrespective of colour, are naturally bound to make mistakes, and that an indiv idual's weakness should not be attributed to all members.
The only competent autho rity to decide whether such officer is guilty of the said offence is the accredited courts of law.
The impression being created by some that Government is trying to get rid of a certain group of persons from the police force, does not hold water and nor does it deserve public acknowledgement.
There is nothing in both the Constitution and the Police Act encouraging any tendency of racial segregation in the police force. The emphasis in both documents is on the establishment of a Namibian Police Force.,
On the contrary the cardinal consideration
Had the Namibian Government not been prepared to accept a certain group of persons in the police force, it would have so decided from its inception and mani fested that intention in one way or another. We are a multi-racial society, therefore we believe in the multi-racial concept and interrelation in every sphere of human activity.

THIS IS an edited version of an address by the Managing Director of the Zambian W~kly Post, Fred M'membe, given at the celebration of World Press Freedom Day in Windhoek on Tuesday.
ONE OF the' greatest hurdles to African economic and social progress, apart from the overquoted colonial legacy and international capitalist conspiracy, is that Afric ans are overgoverned by pettyminded dictators obsessed with visions of eternal rule.
African governments are not content with just running the affairs of the state and providing their people with the necessities of life, but would also run the very lives and control the thinking of the citizens they govern through controlling newspapers, TV and radio.
And yet, ironically, this was the cornerstone of colonial oppression -to smash any deviant thinking of the natives.
One of the most effective ways by which African governments have achiev'ed this state; of affairs has been blackmail and suppression of all criticism and information designed to'expose the fallacy of their policies and in some cases their crimes.
Thus before we real ise it, our ,hard-won uhuru has spawned one ty,rant after another, preying on the original commi tment of the people, All critics inside or outside the ruling party or government are crushed.
The news media are largely controlled by the dictators, resulting in all criticisms , even the
mildest, being automatically banned or censored lest our demi-gods be revealed as sinful 1!Jile ogres.
In due course the phrases 'constructive' and 'destructive criticism' or 'irresponsible' and'responsiblejoumalism' are coined in order to place potential opponents or 'enemies' in some useful categories to reward loyalists and punish the 'malcontents' .
The sponsors of this dialectic are not ashamed to attribute enmity where it may not exist. They thrive on the explosive emotions which this dialectic is likely to generate among the unsuspecting citizens of low literacy. In fact no regard is ever had for the patriotism of the critics.
Very few African leaders, however educated or intelligent they may appear to be in their kentes or pin-stripe suits or Chairman Mao outfits , can differentiate between a critic and a traitor. In most cases they see no difference between a civilian intellectual seeking to exercise his freedom of expression and a rabid political opponent who not only has arms cached away but also has thousands of troops in a neighbouring country awaiting ,an opportune moment.

And yet strangely we should know better since our whole jpdependence struggle!" arose out of the critical awareness of the evils of colonialism and imperialism.
Of course we have never forgotten those evils and never will. Hence whenever a voice of opposition - whether as a political party, pressure group, newspaper or radio station - is raised, the first instinct of African leaders is to smear it with the filth of colonialism, capitalism or imperialism - however greedy they themselves may be. Every domestic ~risis, however much self-created, will eventually be blamed on foreigners and the 'enemy within' - the critics.

WASHINGTON: President Clinton is supporting the first post-apartheid government of South Africa with a three-year US dollars 600 million aid package, designed to help promote jobs and black businesses and provide education and health assistance.
As the euphoria continued from the first multiracial elections last week, Clinton planned to send his wife, Hillary, and Vice President Al Gore to represent the United States at the presidential in'auguration of Nelson Mandela next week.
By doubling aid to South Africa, Clinton acknowledged "other nations may feel slighted."
But he said the 'potential of Mandela's Government of National Unity to restore South Africa's economy in a multiracial society justified the move.

The Rwanda Patriotic Front team flew to Uganda after two days of talks with Tanzanian Prime Minister John Malecela who shuttled between rebel and government delegations in vain.
Similar peace talks called two weeks ago in Arusha collapsed before even starting when a Rwandan government team failed to arrive and the RPF representative ruled out meeting it any-
It al~o sai~ the RPF held that negotiations on the implementation of a 10-month-old peace agreement could only start once the ceasefire was holding and massacres had ended.
The RPF says it will only hold direct talks with Rwanda's army commanders but holds the best way to stop the month of mass slaughter across R wanda is through a. total rebel victory.

Clinton faces sex case LITTLE ROCK: A former state employee was expected to rue a sexual harassmentlawsuit against President Clinton yesterday, alleging that he made an unwanted advance toward her in 1991 while he was governor of Arkansas.
Paula Corbin Jones ' attorney, Daniel M Traylor, said earlier this week thatJones' lawsuit would claim "severe emotional distress" and that Clinton violated her civil rights. He said Jones would seek an apology and "some type of damages."
The White House denies the incident took place, but took the threat of litigation seriously enough to hire Washington lawyer Robert Bennett to defend the president.
Bennett has said Jones sought a job from Clinton,
but Clinton rejected the. idea before she held a Washington news conference to publicize her allegations Feb 11 at a meeting of the Conservative Political Action Committee.
Clinton defenders portrayed Jones as a tool of conservative groups. "This event plain and simple didn't happen," Bennett told The Washington Post. "I believe this is really just another effort to rewrite the results of the election and .. . distract the president from his agenda.
I think this lady is t>e'ing used." The Post reported Wednesday that two relatives
and two friends said Jones had told them about an encounter with Clinton on May 8, ' 1991 , the day it allegedly occurred. - Sapa-AP

Earnings per share increased by 16,9% to 362 ,6 cents per share before tak ing into account the deferred taxation rate adjustment and the tax equalisation provision refl ected in the six months ended 31 March 1993. This was achieved despite the weighted average number of shares increp.sing by 1,2%. Income before taxation grew by 18,7% to R500,5 million . The trading results incorporate those of First Bowring and Associates Holdings (Pty) Limited with effect from 1 October 1993. This has resulted in both other operating income and other operating expenditure increasing sharply.
Total assets grew by R10 457,3 million to R58 528 ,1 million, an increase of 21,8%. Advances showed an 18,8% increase, while deposits and current accounts grew by 22,3%.
EXTRAORDINARY ITEMS
The extraordinary item of R29,9 million is attributable to the write-off of the financial rand premium in respect of the capitalisation of First National Bank Holdings (Botswana) Limited following the merger with the Financial Services Company of Botswana Limited , and a goodwill write-off relating to the acquisition of the 'remaining 50% of First Bowring and Associates Holdings (Pty) Limited .
PROPOSED SUBDIVISION OF ORDINARY SHARES
In order to improve the tradeability of ordinary shares on the Stock Exchanges where the company is listed , in particular to the individual shareholder, the directors have resolved that each existing ordinary share of 100 cents be subdivided into five new ordinary shares of 20 cents each. A circular , including a notice convening a general meeting of shareholders to approve the proposed subdivision , will be posted to shareholders in due course.

Most importantly, it was decided by Congress tbat all decisions taken by tbe NF A executive over tbe past two seasons would be valid.
Tbis will ubviously strengtben tbe controlling body's power over its afftliates especially in Its dispute with relegated Eleven Arrows.
Arrows bas based its protest over the NFA's decision to relegate them and Robber Chanties on the grounds tbat the executive committee of tbe NF A was not properly constituted in terms of its statutes.
Arrows claimed the NF A could not make 'any valid decision in terms of Rule 32 oftbeir constitution, thus putting tbe validity of tbe executive in doubt. Tbe arbitration board left it in tbe hands of Congress to decide whetber the decisions taken by the NF A to relegate Arrows and Robbers were legal.
By validating and recognising the executive's decision, Congress has laid the way open for tbe executive, under Kauraisa's leadersbip, to con-tinue with the Congress. .
A new structure, drawn up by national tea,n( coach Peter Ueberjahn on behalf of the Ministry of Youth and Sports, was also introduced and unanimously accepted by Congress.

Now for the referees Local referees have made drastic progress in certain aspects of the game but some referees are either too lazy to learn or simply ignorant.
Many matches have been played since the begin-_ ning ofthe year. Some went ofT smoothly but others left many players, team officials and fans with a bad taste in their mouths. Some referees also appear to live in the era of the "small" and "big" team mentality of the past.
They do not seem to realise that competition is changing from day to day. Namibia, in its fifth season of international football, still does not have a proPer national referees' organisation which is affiliated to FIFA.
Our referees do not even have a constitution and contradictory decisions are the order of the day. Refereeing in Namibia is centralised and no attempt is made to get colleagues from other parts of the country to officiate in important matches.
A few Windhoek-based officials maintain a monopoly and there appear no plans for national referee~ng development courses. The question of a constitution and a savings account remain unan- ., swered.
The Nuclues Health and Fitness Centre has asked a registered physiotherapist and instructor to assist in demonstrating how to exercise without unnecessary pain.
The workshop is of utmost importance to all serious exercisers who wantto bettertheirexercising technique. The workshop will be presented by Karin da Silva and Bianca Winterbach.

The Benfica official declined to elaborate on the conditions his club had requested but added that the club's representative in Windhoek Samuel 'Pecks' Uushona was supposed to discuss them with Stars first.
"I don't have anything to say at this moment. I hope we will be able to sort things out sometime today (Friday) and that the match will still take place this weekend.
Meanwhile, sources close to Benfica hinted that it was most unlikely that the match would take place tomorrow. It now appears the match will be played on Wednesday, May 25 (Africa Day).

The match, ~Iayed in the Stars tournament last Monday, ended in a 1-all stalemate but could not be finished due to poor light and was initially postponed until tomorrow.
However, Benfica official Onesmus Shilamba told this reporter late yesterday that his club had put certain conditions to S tars on the staging of the replay.
"It is not only about coming to Windhoek to play the match. There are great expenses to consider. Stars must remember that we are coming to Windhoek for the second time to play in their tournament.
"We have players all over the country and some come froma as far as Oranjemund. We have to . cover their travelling expenses and the players in Tsumeb must be released from their duties," Shilamba said, adding that they needed at least a week before they could ask for leave as most of the players are employed by TCL Mine.
Meanwhil e, Kozonguizi protested that Uushona had not con-
