Planning before youengage helps a lotWhich comes first a chicken or an egg?Let me just ask you a question. Why
are you in business? I am sure this maypuzzle you. Don’t be. I am just as con-fused. I hired a guy to fix my door. Thiswas Thursday last week.He came on Friday the following day. I
was impressed. I thought he meantbusiness. I was happy. But later he toldme he was missing one tool. A friend hastaken it. “Let me go and ask for it,” hesaid.Thirty minutes later he was back. This
guy means business, I thought.“How did you go?” I asked. “He is not
there,” he said. “And so what are yougoing to do?” I am kind of practical. Ifocus on action.“I will come tomorrow,” he said. What
the heck, was tomorrow not Saturday? Ithought. But a man has to be flexible,hasn’t he? I said okay, not sure whether Imeant it or not. I don’t like to be underpressure.I like my freedom. Whether I am going
to do something or not, I do.And I had an idea what I was going to
do. Do you? Do you plan ahead?Or, do you cross the bridge when you
get there?I don’t. I like planning. I like to plan
ahead. My life depends on that. Andwhen you cross my plan, I kind of feeldisempowered. That’s right. I am lost.For I don’t know when you are going to
come.I don’t know whether you are going to
come or not. My life is suspended. Itdepends on you. I don’t like that. I like tobe in charge of my life. Do you. Do youdrive your life or, do others drive it?Real business people know that. They
don’t mess around with their customers’lives. But my brother here behaved as ifwe were relatives.But I am going to pay him for service
rendered.That’s a norm. That is how business is
conducted. If I don’t he is going to beangry. I don’t know what he can do tome. He can shoot me for all I know. Wehave become a violent nation.Needless to say, on Saturday he did not
pitch up. He did not even phone. Or sentan apology. He just kept quiet. I just gotto guess.What am I to guess? I am not in his
mind!Sunday the same; he did not pitch up.
What am I to make of this, I don’t know?You just wonder, what kind of businessis this? Is it business, or what? I hope itis. On Monday no show.I don’t know when is he going to turn
up. All I know is that I am not going toblow it, because the steam is out. Ishared my frustrations with you! By thetime he shows up I’ll be cool. We willcarry on from where we left off. Staypositive.
Proof ‘Sinako Ukuzenzela’MANDLA MAHASHE
“Having lived in a shack formore than twen-ty years, it feels good to sleep at night with-out the worry of the heavy rains”.Thesewere thewords of RDPhousing ben-
eficiary Mphuthumi Tshotyane, 64, duringan inspection by theNational Human Settle-ment last Friday.Tshotyane was speaking during the visit
to Town Two Khayelitsha where housesbuilt by the Sinako Ukuzenzela Project werebeing inspected.Tshonyane who lives in his new home
with hiswife Veronica, 59, aswell three chil-dren said that the home was a ‘dream cometrue’.“We have beenwaiting since the 1990s and
we are extremely happy with the home be-cause now we don’t even notice if it rains.In the past, when the skies turned grey we
would worry as there would be leakages andthreats of being flooded in the shack,” hesaid.Tshotyane noted that the homes were of
greater quality than the RDP of yesteryear
and commended Sinako Ukuzenzela Projectfor their good work.The organisation is run by locals who ap-
point a construction company to build thehouses for the beneficiaries. Fifteen newcompleted homes across Town Two and SiteB and 10 more which are still under con-struction were being inspected on the day.Sinako Ukuzenzela Project oversees the
construction of RDP houses in Khayelitshaand has been doing so since 2000.This, according to the projects chairper-
son Lucy Tyhaliti, is not an easy task.“After getting the go ahead form the Hu-
man Settlement Department, we have tomake sure that all the material is madeavailable.We have to liaise with the construction
company and the beneficiaries throughoutthe construction process. We have to be onthe ball constantly,” she said.Tyhaliti said that they have already over-
seen the construction of over fifty homessince they launched their organisation.“When something goes wrong we are the
ones who have to douse the fires while mak-ing sure that we protect the beneficiariesand also make sure that the constructioncompanies do their jobs.But we don’t let that discourage us as we
are determined to help improve the lives ofresidents,” she said.She said that they were hoping to build
more homes and said that the inspectorswere happy with their work.They said that she was proud to announce
that their project offers niceties such as alu-minium windows, secure electrical cabling,good plumbing and above average ceiling.

Thales South Africa Systems in partnershipwith the Community Chest Western Capehave made tertiary education posible for sixlearners who received bursaries coveringthe duration of their studies.
The five year project of awarding the bur-saries, will see dozens of other learners ben-efiting during the process.
The learners, Ncebakazi Maranga,19, for-merly from Sizimisele Technical HighSchool, Siphumle Matkinca,19, ex Joe SlovoEngineering High School, Zukisa Dyantyi,18, previously from Khanyolwethu Second-ary High School, in Strand, Cameron CorneAdams,19, a former learner at ForestHeights High School in Eerster River, Fad-wa Isaacs,19, who matriculated at MalibuSecondary School, in Mitchells Plain andVoizha Maxeen Steenberg,18, who matricu-lated at Klein Vlei Secondary High Schoolin Eerste River.
Thales was approached by the Communi-ty Chest which sold their idea of improvingthe lives of learners from disadvantagedbackgrounds through empowering them ineducation, about five years ago.
They received a call a few months ago in-forming them that their request was suc-cessful.
This was the first group to benefited fromthe bursaries which included R20.000 and alaptop.
It was announced on the night of theawards that the bursaries will be raised toR100.000 per student next year.
The awards ceremony was attended by,among other dignitaries, Lorenzo Davids,Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Communi-ty Chest, Joe Msindwana, Thales director ofSales and Marketing, Albert Fritz, MEC forSocial Development and Xanthea Limberg,mayoral committee member for Corporate
Services.Msindwana said this project will surely
make a good change in the lives of the benefi-ciaries.
“We are very honoured to be part of thisproject to ensure that we participate in thedevelopment of our communities. I am surethat this will have a positive impact in theirlives,” he said.
Thales has been awarded a contract to up-grade the railway signalling system withinthe province. The contract will include themodernization of rail signalling, communi-cations and train management systems, cov-ering 46 train stations in the highly populat-ed areas of this region.
Maranga said the bursary came at theright time, just when she needed it the most.
“I am very happy to receive the bursary,because I applied for NFSAS, but they havenot responded yet. The laptop is going tohelp me a lot, because I have to stay on cam-pus until late doing my work, because I didnot have a laptop,” Maranga said.
Maranga is currently studying Civil Engi-neering at Cape Peninsula University ofTechnology (CPUT).
Noluthando Mbizo, Maranga’s mother,said she was also happy that her daughterbenefited from the bursary.
“There was no way that I would have beenbe able to pay for her fees, because I do nothave money. I am very glad she got the bur-sary,” Mbizo said.
Boniswa Xonti, deputy principal at JoeSlovo Engineering High School, also ap-plauded the awarding of the bursaries andsaid it will surely make a good impact in thelearner’s lives.
Matikinca, who resides in Mfuleni, prom-ised not to disappoint the funders of his stud-ies when he starts his Mechanical Engineer-ing course next year.
Fritz thanked the company for providing
the awards and encouraged the beneficia-ries to make use of the opportunities givento them.
“Go out and do your best in your studies.You are great. You are my instant heroes,”he said.
Fritz raised his concern about learnerswho roam the streets during school hours.
“There is no urgency for education tosome learners these days...recently sawsome learners walking on a street at 11amand when I stopped to ask them why theywere not at school at that time, they told methat their parents did not wake them up.
Limberg said the dedication of the recipi-ents in their studies led to them excelling inmaths and science, and has paid off, sincethey have been awarded bursaries.
“I really hope that you are all as proud ofyourself as I am of you. To get to stand hereamongst us today knowing that your futureeducation is taken care of is no mean feat,and it is something to be applauded and cele-brated with pride. Because when we becomeeducated, we not only equip ourselves withthe most powerful tool in the world, but weempower our children and our communitiesto continue our legacy,” she said.

Hair stylist’s shoes bring a smileMBONGISENI MASEKO
Bulumko High School learners are on cloudnineafter receivingapair of shoes each fromthe benevolent owner of a hair salon inKhayelitsha.
Sbu Zulu, 28, of Sbu’s Hair Salon which isbased at the Mitchell’s Plain Station Plaza,has donated 50 pairs of shoes to the needyat the school.
Zulu said he knows first hand the pain ofgrowing up in a disadvantaged backgroundas he became an orphan at an early age inhis young life.
“I grew up suffering and I had no parents.I had to drop out of school because of that.
You must make use of the opportunity ofstudying that you get and stop being in-volved in bad activities that will lead you tojail.
Do not do drugs like tik thinking that youare clever, because tik is cleverer than you.
You must listen(to parents and teachers)andnot lose focus. I camehere because I loveyou,” Zulu said.
His parents died in 1999 and he moved tothe Mother City in 2009.
Zulu,who originates fromSoweto inGaut-
engprovince, saidhis life tookagood changeafter he came to the city and started the sa-lon.
He said the teachers from the school aresome of the clients that are supporting hisbusiness which is why he chose the school.
Sanezo Tyuka, a Grade 10 learner and abeneficiary, said he really needed the newshoes.
“I am very happy with this gift of shoes,because mine were already worn out.
My parents could not afford to buy me anew pair as they are not employed,” Tyukasaid.
Nomaphelo Batyashe, the deputy princi-pal, said the donation will go a long way inhelping the learners.
“I amvery happy for the learners, becausetheir shoes were very old and others did nothave school shoes at all.
Some of the learners were forced to cometo school wearing tekkies and some endedup being absent most of the time as result.
We want to thank Sbu for the donation.”It was revealed that at times, some teachersalso had to dig into their pockets to help buyshoes for the learners.
Phumza Tshazi, a teacher at the school
said despite the glaring levels of poverty, theschool produced some of the best learnersaround, who have gone on to carve a namein
tertiary institutions.“Few of our learners drop out of school,
notwithstanding the challenges they face.”

School spearheads love of Africa and its people in songMANDLA MAHASHE
Africa Day is a continent-wide celebrationof the founding of the Organisation of Afri-can Unity(OAU), the precursor to the Afri-can Union(AU) exactly 52 years ago to Mon-day past.
And as part of the festivities to celebrateAfrica Day, Manyano High School in IlithaParkware theproudhosts of this year’sAfri-can Festival on this day.
Learners from the school performedaplayon Xenophobia, the choir wowed crowdswith African songs, poetry and dance, in-cluding thosewith the gift of the gab engagedin the debates about the issue.
The event was made possible, thanks tothe partnership between the school and theNGO called Bold Moves with support fromTitan Helicopter Group (THG), Indwe Avia-tion, JayDee, Vhuwa Investments and Alex-ander Forbes.
Principal Nokuzola Malgas said that itwas important for the school to host theevent as theywere facing serious challengeswith the youths.
“We find that inmost incidents of violenceand mob protests it is the children that areused. If we place them at the forefront offighting xenophobia it will go a long way inavoiding a repeat of such incidents,” saidMalgas.
He said that the eventwasaimedat educat-ing the community on the tolerance andpartnerships with people of different ori-gins.
“When we relay the message to the youththey are the ones that will carry suchmessa-ges to their community and households.
It is important that our children be theleaders in something positive, instead of thebad, which is almost always the case,” she
said.Malgas recalled a time when her pupils
were involved in anarchical behaviour thus
putting the school in bad light.“When therewere rampant pooprotests in
our communities, one of our students wasphotographed and appeared on the frontpage of a newspaper in full uniform.
That really shocked us and brought theschool a great deal of embarrassment hencewe felt that we need to engage our pupils inprogrammes that address behaviouralchanges,” she explained.
The theme of the year’s event was ‘Cele-bratingOurDiversity’. KemiAdebayo, BoldMovesCEO, said staging the event inKhaye-litsha was an effort to address the problemof xenophobia in the country.
Sello Molloko, Alexandra Forbes chair-man, warned the pupils of the dangers posedby attacks on other communities.
“Instead of building we are actually de-stroying ourselves. We should find a com-mon denominator with other Africans in-stead of always trying to find what is differ-ent,” he said.
Malgas said therewas a lot of anger amongthe young and incidents such as xenophobicattacks are a result of that anger. She saidthat the school has initiated programs tochange such behavioural problems.

Africa fashion shines asT’mbelihle joins the partyMANDLA MAHASHE
Thembelihle Senior Secondar school inKhayelitsha used the occassion of celebrtat-ing Africa Day with a display of the differ-ent fashions emanating from the continent.According to teacher Noluthando Teyi,thiswas to show the community that not on-ly should fellow Africans be tolerated, butbe celebrated as well.“We decided to dress in different cos-tumes that represent various countries toshow our support.It is also to show that fellow Africans arenot that different from us,” said Teyi.Teyi said that Africans can learn a lotfrom one another and that is the lesson tobe learnt by the pupils.Another teacher Nombuyiselo Hlomelasaid that the community needed to dig deepwithin itself to revive the spirit of ubuntu.“It really is sad that in incidents such asthe xenophobic attacks it is the youth that
are used as the perpetrators of violence.We need to educate these young childrenon the importance of other Africans andwhat they offer,” she said.She added that ignorance was a majorproblem and often the cause of such inci-dents in communities.“There is this notion that it is only Afri-cans that come here in order to do businessor in searchof a better lifewhen in fact someSouth Africans are working and runningbusiness in African countries,” she said.Local councillor Mthwalo Mkutshwanaurged the pupils to refrain from engagingin illegal and violent behaviour against for-eigners.“There isnothing to gain from looting andterrorising people from other countries.Today let us and celebrate otherAfrican,”he said. Africa day was declared in 1963 inAddis Ababa, Ethiopia after the establish-ment of the Organisation of African Unity,which today is known as theAfricanUnion.

Entrepreneurs who attended a businessbrief in Khayelitsha recently, left the eventwith their heads held high and confident ofthe commercial opportunities the area canoffer to investors.Well known Cape Town based entrepre-
neur Luvuyo Rani hosted the well attendedEkasi BusinessNetwork breakfast atUyesuuNathi hall on Saturday.Tania Overmeyer from the University of
the Western Cape said entrepreneursshould make an impact in their areas oftrade.“Business is not just business, it needs
leaders, you have to recognise that you im-pact to speak and lift up the downtrodden.”.
She urged entrepreneurs to constantlypolish their “leadership skills” through self-development and building sustainable net-works.Divya Vasant fromSorbet spoke about op-
portunities that their company is offering towomen through a partnership with Cloth-ing Bank.“We have created training programmes
for unemployedwomen and turned them in-to fruitful franchise owners,” she said.She announced that they would soon be
training 50 women in beauty therapy andwould canvass in the townships to sourcethem.Dikeledi Mosime owner of Tinpac spoke
on the subject of “entrepreneurial burn out”and urged those involved in business to lead
a balanced life.“How entrepreneursmanage their time is
vital for their businesses. They must havetime to rest, to sleep well and eat well.”She said most entrepreneurs have higher
expectations than their enterprises shoulddeliver, failing which they end up being de-motivated.“Entrepreneurship is a marathon run ,
not a sprint, take little steps and you willachieve your goals,” Dikeledi said.Main guest speakerDrKimTan of Spring-
HillManagementUK offered awide rangingtalk detailing his company’s success andhow they operated.In Singapore his company pioneered a
programmewhich converted prisoners intocall centre operators and paid thema decent
wage.“Prison is a lonely place andwhenyou are
there in most cases your family disownsyou. What we have done with these prison-ers was to give them back some of their lostdignity. When they are released they havemoney and some skills to fall back on oncereleased.”He describedhimself as “a different inves-
tor” who was easily swayed by the “peoplefactor”. “When I invested in Silulo Technol-ogies, Luvuyo did not have a decent busi-ness plan but his passion wonmy heart andI invested in his dream,” he said to thunder-ous applause.MEC Alan Winde also addressed the con-
cerns of aspiring business persons aroundthe issue of the “red tape”.

Youth should take a leafout of Mmusi’s moralityMmusi Maimane’s victory was muchanticipated although contested in theDemocratic Alliance, was celebrated as amilestone in South Africa politics but thetriumph far outweighs political signifi-cance.Analysts have applauded the victory asimportant to address the long-standingracial debates surrounding the DA andthe South African society in general, butthe story has more important impact onthe African youth.Maimane is a youthful leader who haswon the hearts of many South Africansand clearly his election is a symbol ofintegrity, hardwork and confidenceamong the youths which our countryneeds today.Whatever his fate in his political careerhe has achieved a lot in showing Africanyouths belief in oneself.This includes working hard, going forthings you want to achieve in life.Most importantly, he has demonstratedthat politics are not only for the elderlysor the seniors in society, but also for theyouth of today.They youth can participate in politicsand make a huge impact like he did.Africa is suffering from a problemwhere its youths are not taking part inthe affairs of the continent. The conti-nent’s development, according to some
analyst, has become stagnant. Thecontinent needs more youths who takeinitiatives and participate in social,political, economic and the religious lifeof its people.Youth participation can bring newblood, new vigour and new mindsets andways of thinking in addressing the longstanding problems that the continent isfacing in the post-independence era.His humble background is a similarstory to many African youths, but heworked hard to be where is now.This is proof that African youths mustnot give excuses that their upbringinghas affected their future prospects.His religious and moral backgroundhas helped him attain his present status.Lack of morality among the youth isthe main reason they don’t succeed inlife.Many of the youths end up behindbars, or worse, die young because ofmisguidance, but Maimane’s responsiblenatured has made him the success he istoday.Africa should advocate for socialentrepreneurship. The aspiring entrepre-neurs need role models to motivate themto work hard and realise that they can bewhat they want to be, like Maimane.

PAC still dreams of unityThe era of advanced neo-liberalism,capitalism and imperialism whichmanifest itself in a form of globalisationand multinational corporationism callsfor quality leadership in our organisa-tion.In the coming 2015 PAC Congress weare determined to elect a nationalexecutive committee that will take thePan Africanist revolution forward. PACbranches have no choice but to electleadership of supreme quality, with greatpotential and charisma to rally theAfrican people in Azania around thefundamental task of promoting PanAfricanism.Many in the PAC structures know thatthe model for leadership exists – theleadership of the late 1950s and 1960s seta great example for us all to follow. Theleadership then was educated about theeconomic, political, social and psychologi-cal conditions under which Africansthrived. They possessed a profoundknowledge about the terrain of Africanpeople’s struggle. It was teachers, law-yers, economists and church leaders whoqualified to lead the PAC. Our organisa-tion then was a very strong one.Quantity maybe important for demo-cratic elections, but as Africanists wemust understand that it is the qualitythat must triumph.When quality has been spotted, nomi-nated and elected Pan Africanism be-comes victorious. In the 1950s the leader-ship quality of Professor Robert Mangali-so Sobukwe and his colleagues was very
special. It comprised of professionals,intellectuals, philosophers, and above all,very strong and fearless individuals.These leaders pursued to their graves theprinciples enshrined in the basic docu-ment of the PAC, African Nationalism,PAC policies and principles, Pan African-ism, Black Consciousness, AfricanistSocialist Democracy and African Scientif-ic Socialism.In 2014, in the Botshabelo Conference,Alton Mpethi was replaced with aco-opted Acting President, LuthandoMbinda.He was given a mandate to lead the
PAC toward the 2015 Congress. Currently,he is hell-bent to betray the BotshabeloConference resolutions. Mbinda has gotmillions of rands which he may use,come the congress, to buy votes.Together with his two puppets, NariusMoloto and Bennett Khonkwane Jokothey have compromised themselves.Come the Congress, in 2015, thestaunch PAC members who are schooledin Pan Africanism, anti-liberalism,anti-capitalism and anti-imperialism willshow that money can buy our votes – ourfreedom. We are not sell-outs. The PACbranches are not confused. We hold on tothe profound principles of Pan African-ism. In the coming congress the PACbranches shall defend the basic docu-ments and the principles of the PAC. Wehold on to our profound and powerfulslogan – serve, suffer and sacrifice.

pupils between grades 5 to 7 in the province.The pupils get to learn about the Jewish
and other communities in the country.Gabi Neudilman said: “It is important for
the young people to learn about people whocome from other countries and the reasonthey leave their homes.The Jewish people left Europe for South
Africa escaping persecution and we camehere in search of a better future.”
She said the programme offered practicalactivities to expose learners to diversity,multiculturalism and respect.The pupils are also taught about Islam,
Christianity, African beliefs and Buddhism.The Western Cape Education Department
endorses the programme.“We have realised that some had informa-
tion regarding Jewish people but it’s in bitsand pieces and we can see that when theyleave, they have gained some valuable infor-mation,” she said.Up to 60 pupils can be accommodated per
visit and the programme is free.The Museum also provide lunches for
those schools on a feeding scheme pro-gramme and is able to help subsidise trans-port.Neudilman also encouraged other schools
to contact the museum as well as other com-munities from the community.Interested parties can call 021 465 1546 or

Coach Lib, his charges and the futureZILA MKONTO
After an illness that kept him away from hischarges, boxing coach Libberman Jakuka isback in the gym and raring to go.“I thank all the ringsiders who have been
concerned about me, I am back with a bangnow and am ready to produce champions,”said Libberman.As thehead coach of theHarare-based Imi-
zamo Yethu Boxing Club, Libberman has along term vision for the youths in the area.When City Vision visited the gym on
Wednesday night, we found Libberman tak-ing about fortymembers of the gym throughtheir paces.On this day, it was raining cats and dogs
outside, with everyone sweating inside thegym, as the petite coach was barking in-structions left-right centre.“We have 20 active boxers here and the
rest is people who are trying to loose weightand gain fitness,” he said.But what excited Libbermanmost was the
fact that four of his professional boxers, vet-eran Jones Kafile and three debutants, Ane-le Komani, Nkuleko Faleni and KwandisoSaba have been drafted into the forthcoming“Tribute To Madiba” boxing tournamenttaking place at the Thusong Centre on July18.“My boys are ready and we want to show
the people of Harare that we have talenthere.Anele and Nkululeko are both goldmedal-
lists in the amateur league,” he said.Libberman was quick to thank the ANC
Youth League, ward councillor Anele Gabu-za and Violence Prevention through UrbanUpgrading (VPUU) for suppporting andmaking sure that the club has “a place andequipment to train.”“They have been very supportive and
without themwewouldbe gymless,” he said.Assitant coach Andile Matyhila, a former
pro boxer himself, said they enjoyed practis-ing in their “new gym” now.“This is much better than we had before.
We still needmore equipment butwe are notcomplaining at all,” said Andile.
NolufefeDosiwho isusing the gymto gainfitness said she was very happy to be partof the club.“I like the way our coach treats us and
shares information with us,” said Nolufefe.She said staying in the gym kept her away
from troubles and joked that she will “devel-op a six pack soon”.Nomvuyiseko Mkita has already seen the
benefits of hard training.During a recent traffic recruitment run
she was only woman to cross the finishingline on time.
“Ï joined the club in December and I wantto encourage more women to participate inexercises because it’s good for one’s health,”she said. Young girl boxers Dunyiswa Mat-shini and Thandokazi Vimba showed us
some of theit skills and we agreed with theircoach when he says they are destined for agreat future in the ring.“Wewant tomake this oneof thebest clubs
in Khayelitsha and beyond. With talentedkids like these I am confident of doing justthat,” Libberman said as a parting shot.

vice Station in Gugulethu and hasbeen promoting boxing out of hispocket since 2010. Hewelcomed theannouncement by Sports MinisterFikile Mbalula that boxing wouldsoon return to SABC.“Our boyshave a chance to shine

Shakes fumes over wild claimsBafana Bafana coach Shakes Mashaba has hit backat Roger de Sa for stating that players in the Cape getoverlooked for national duty, on Tuesday.According to KickOff, the Ajax Cape Town coach
said that players based in the Mother City do not getseen as enough and he has “spoken to the nationalteam coaches”.Mashaba reveals that he had sat in meetings with
Ajax CEO, Ari Efstathiou, along with the former Or-lando Pirates coach.“I want coach Roger to come forth and say, ‘Yeah,
I’m here. You don’t select Cape Town players,” saidMashaba.“When I went to Cape Town he [De Sa] was in that
meeting. We were two and he was with the director.I tried, I spoke to them and said, ‘Make the playersavailable’ and they said the players can’t leave.“I was shocked to see that article. You are making
me look bad. We had a couple of players [from Ajax]that we selected for the Under-20, Under-23 and seniornational teams. I want him to come out clear and saywhy he is saying that.”Meanwhile, the Royal Bafokeng Stadium will play
host to the COSAFA Cup Plate section with Bafanaand Malawi set to clash at 19:30 on Wednesday, May27.Bafana were knocked out of the Cup section by Bot-
swana while Malawi lost to Mozambique.
