OAU sets up African Economic Community Southern African Customs Union praised

ABUJA, Nigeria: Thirty-two African leaders signed a treaty establishing an Afdcan Economic Community yester­day, giving themselves 34 years to set up the wUon.

The signing ceremony came at the opening of a four-day summit of the Organization of Afri­can Unity where the 51 member states for the first time in the 27-yeru: rustor of their club are divided on the issue of South Africa.

Africa' s leaders will discuss numerous top­ics, including whether to lift sanctions against Pretoria, Africa's inS! bastion of white-supremcy.

At preparatory ministerial talks last week, most countries argued for sustaining an eco­nomic blockade to keep up the pressure on Pretoria.

But a minority led by Kenya ant! Madagascar WO.ut to follow the European Economic Com­munity in lifting all sanctions to signal support for President FW de Klerk's political reforms.

Whatever the leaders decide, African mem­ber states that oppose further sanctions say they will continue to restore trade, investment and communications ties with South Africa.

An OAU report published last week said black Africa's trade with South Africa is in­creasing' 'by" leaps and bound" and stood at ahout four billion dollars a year.

Nigerian President Ibrahim Babangida, con­ference host and new chaitperson of the organi­zation, opened the summit at which leaders signed a 79-page document to create a union based on the European ('''mmon market within 34 years.

Major objectives W"re listed as '

African economies to increase economic self­reliance and encourage indigenous and self­sustained development, and promoting economic, social and cultural development.

Another is to develop, mobilize and use Af­lica's material and human resources to achieve self-reliancy for "the continent that once was a major food exporter.

The community aims also to raise standards ofliving, enhance economic stability, and foster close and peaceful rela tions between countries on the strife-tom continent.

Under the treaty, African states must spend the next five years strengthening existing re­gional economic communities and establishing new ones.

Angolans rejoice at Club Thriller

CL UU Thriller, in Windhoek's Katutura, was the scene of an historic reunion when hundreds of Angolans from both sides of the long-running civil conflict came to­gether to celebrate last week's peace accord. Angolan ambassador to Namibia, Bento Ribeiro, invited all the many Angolans in Namibia to the party irrespective of political affiliation.

According to eye-witnesses it was not an occasion for political speeches but for happy reunions, as nearly all Angolans are fed up with the 16-year-old civil war that has devastated the country.

Club Thriller and surrounds were said to be packed with rejoicing Angolans from Saturday lunchtime until early evening.

One visitor from Luanda talked of meeting a school friend who has been a Unita commandant for many years. There was also a delegation of church leaders from southern Angola for the celebration.

According to Carlos A1meida, third secretary at the Angolan embassy: "We are all Angolans, and we have to forget the past - the most important thing for ps is the present.

AIi the Angolan people together should struggle to­gether for better living conditions and we have to Wlderstand each other."

PM gets stamp of approval from NA THE National Assembly yesterday unanimously ap­proved the budget votes of the Office of the Prime Minister and the National Assembly.

Explaining his vote , Prime Minister Hage Geingob, said the Consti tution of Namibia stipulated that the Prime Min­ister shall be the leader of Governmeru business in Par­liament, co-ordinate the work of Cabinet, and ad vi se and assist the Presiden t in the execu tion of the function s of Govern­ment.

Further, Geingob said, in the case of the temporary ab sence of the President, the Prime Minister is expected to dep­utise for him and preside at meetings of the Cabinet in accordance with the provisions of the Constitution.

'The overall responsibility of the Office of the Prime Minis­ter is however to pursue the broad national policy objec­tives of promoting a stable pol itical atmosphere, and es­tablishing and maintaining an efficient system of Government administration.

Outlining the achievements of the previous finacial year, Geingob referred to the crea­tion of one, new Government structure out of the 11 govern­ments which existed at the time of independence.

" The pre-independence, cthnically-based structures were dismantled and replaced with national structures," he pointed out .

He also noted that his Office had introduced four bilis that were subsequently promul­gated, among them the Public Service Commission Act and the Public Service Amendment Act.

Explaining the importance of national tours, which he untertook to all corners of the country, the Prime Minister said " these consultations in­variably resulted in better understanding and furthered our objective of accountability to those who elected us".

Geingob also referred to the fore ign trips he had conducted during the previous financial year and said that "all these trips provided an excellent opportunity to introduce Namibia to the various foreign countries" .

Introducing a gradual phas­ing out of the Government Motor Vehicle Scheme, Gein­gob said "motor allowances are on their way out". In the first instance, he added; there would be no renewal of motor allowances.

At the same time, however, he pointed out that the reason why some people had com­plained about the motor allow­ances was because of the " extension of this facility to those who were not members of a privileged group", who

enjoyed this benefit in the pre­independence administration.

On improving the remunera­tion and service conditions structure of public servants, Geingob announced a two notch increment for everyone· ear­ling le ss than R62 OQO a year. Those earning m ore than this, but less than R 66 000, will get a one notch hike.

Responding to allegations that the Public Service is only about 50 000, and not 57 000, as put forward by himself, Geingob said the Public Serv­ice payroll has 57 000 regis­tered employees. "The 7 000 might be people who have died or resigned, " he added, prom­ising that the Government took the matter seriously and was looking into it.

The Prime Minister said his aim was to bring the bureauc­racy down to 43 000, "if not 40 000", and urged cabinet ministers not to replace vacant posts, unless vitally important.

•• Considerable economies have been achieved by not fill­ing some 30 per cent of the established posts, " he added.

Other measures will be to fret>,ze some posts and also to lOOk into early retirement, he said. "The UN does this when th.:y face a financial crisis," he explained.

After congratulations from NPF leader Moses Katjioun­gua, the votc was unanimously passed.

A MqTION requesting the Namibian Government to ask the International Committee of the Red Cross to investi­gate the issue of Namibians who went missing during the war of liberation was passed in the National Assembly on Fri­day. The motion, tabled and motivated by

Attorney-General Hartmut Ruppel, "re­iterates the Assembly's continued con­cern for the right of families to know the fate of their relatives" . It requests the Government, through the Prime Minis­ter, to inform the International Commit­tee of the Red Cross (ICRC) of the accep­tanc,e of its working procedures.

"DEMOCRACY requires due recognition of the various democr atic institutions", therefore it was necessary that these institutions be appropr iately accommodated.

TIlls was said by Prime M inister Hage Geingob when he addressed the National A ssembly yesterday on the parliamentary bu dget vote of R5 579000.

Talking about the achieve­ments of the National Assem­bly during the previous finan­cial year, Geingob said it had been extremely productive.

, 'Democracy has now been firmly entrenched in our coun­try, " the Prime Minister stated, adding that the agenda would be even more demanding as the varied issues of nation­building were addressed.

During 1990/91, the National Assembly passed 31 bills, while 28 motions were tabled.

Besides this, members of the Assembly attended various international meetings to fa­cilitate Namibia's membership

of the Commonwealth Parlia­mentary Association and the Inter-Parliamentary Union, Geingob said.

The Assembly had further approved Namibia's member­ship of the International Mone­tary Fund (IMF); had ratified the treaty on the Charter of the Child; and had taken note of m any other agreements.

Concerning the anticipated output of the coming year, Geingob said the National Assembly would continue with activities that fell within the normal scope of its function.

In mid-September, renova­tions to the Parliament Build­ing would be completed and it was hoped that the National Assembly would start its fOUlth session in the new facilities.

Geingob also called for appropriate provisions in the

not too distant future to house the Supreme Court , and the Executive branch. "In the same vain, we need to make provi­sion for the Speaker's and Chief Justice 's official residences, " he added .

Moses Katjioungua (NPF), N ahas Angula (Swapo) and Bamey Bames (DTA) congratu­lated the Speaker and the dep­uty Speaker for their sound leadership.

Peter Keyser (ACN) said the Speaker was actually like a father figure to the House and projected an exceptional im­age of Parliament to the out­side world.

In supporting the vote, Nahas Angula, said ' ' this vote is the heart of ,he democratic proc­ess of our country", without which there would be no As­sembly at all.

THE NA,MIBJAN

Ailly gets· top US award

Garere fly to

Germany NAMIBIAN pop and jazz stars the Garere group are wowing German audiences at a cultural festival in Frankfurt. Garere, many of them known to fans since the sixties and seventies when they were in the Ugly Creatures, are following in the footsteps of other megastars such as the Beatles who started their international career gig. ging in Germany.

The group is sponsored by airlines Namib Air and Lufthansa, who are providing six and seven return tickets respectively. They have been invited by the University of Cologne and Germany's Min­istry of Cultural Co-operation to take pan in a festival of Namibian culture. Theu- rep­ertoire includes tIaditional songs and dances as well as rocking jazz and dance numbers.

N amib Air is sponsoring the tickets to help promote Na­mibian cl,llture abroad. The group flew out last Friday and are to return on June 9.

AILLY Hangula ofWlndhoek, presently studying at 14 Berea C oUege in the USA, has received the Layman Memorial Scholarship which is awarded to the student most likely to make a signiflcant contrl~ut1on in the fleld of international relations.

" At a College which emphasises service as well as learning, It Is a real pleasure to see a student as deserving as Ailly winning this award," Berea President, John B Stephenson, said.

Founded in 1855, Ber ea is an independent, non-denomina­tional college which limits its enrolment to 1 500 and charges to tuition. In addition to carr ying a full academic load, students work 10 to 15 hours a week in the on·campus labour programme.

AllIy said of the award: "It is hard to describe the feeling of getting the Layman International Relations A ward. It Is a great honour for me.

But most importantly it is a good sign for my people to see how far students can make it, no matter what their back­grounds are. I was born and raised in an apartheid system where 'humanity' had no meaning.

"I hope this award will serve as an inspiration to many other students, irrespective ofthelr place and fleld of study."

MORE THAN a quarter of a million litres ofNamibian beer are to be shipped from Walvis Bay to Poland as the first consignment of a one year contract that could earn US$30 million (R84 million). Namibia Breweries says the beer is to be sold in special bars with a Namibian theme, one of which has already been set up in the tallest building in Warsaw. ' . ,

Namibian beers including Windhoek Lager, Export, Special and Tafel lager were lested repeatedly by buyers in Warsaw ,befo.re being chosen aeove other ,beers offere'd to them.

Namibia also beat South African competitors who were . able to offer lower prices be­cause of the subsidies they receive on exports.

However, said Peter Kazmaier of Namibia Brewer­ies, the contract was won by the quality of Namibian beer: "This confirms that our com­mitment to producing a natu­rally brewed beer of the high­est possible quality has been the key to the successful con­clusion of this contract."

The contract was won after

Global Conunercial's man­aging director Danie Strauss said it was important that a Namibian identity should be prominent on local products and companies.

He added that international goodwill towards Namibian products opens many doors for exporters.

The deal was clinched with the help of Standard Bank Namibia. Len Schutzler, the bank's managing director, took personal charge of organising a letter of credit from Poland

This is the biggest contract for N amibian beer.,outside tra­ditional markets. ~ The first shipment will consist of 16 sea-containers or 274 000 lit­res of beer.

Future loads could be as much as 30 containers a month, or 514000 litres.

Namibia Breweries l)nd Global Conunercial are in the process of negotiating with several countries in Africa and elsewhere and have already started exporting Namibian beer to Zambia. A first container load has reached Britain. where it got a warm welcome, but longer-term contracts are still being negotiated.

W en the · going gets 'tough the"

tough get going BAGANI: " Rather you than me " was the feeling of Wind­hoek businessm~n, Cohen van Zyl, as he watch,~ct an enthusi­astic group of journalists pre­paring to travel on a United Nations relief convoy to neigh­bouring Angola.

"This route is so tough even the drivers, after one trip, are not prepared to go again, " he said onSaturday as mechanics put the finishing touches to his company's four massive trucks at the now deserted Buffalo militmy base workshops near Bagani in Northern NanYbia.

The convoy, the fow-th from Namibia in the United Nations Special Relief Progranune for Angola (SRPA), was dest ined for Mavinga about 380km from the border in south-eastern Angola.

"There are no roads, we follow tracks and make our own," Van Zyl said.

"When we started (in March) and the ground was more compact it was easier and we were getting 2km to the litre of diesel," he said.

"'Now we use five litres to the kilometre . ..

VanZyl has a contract to do six trips. Nobody else appeared interested in the tender.

The vehicles travel non-stop at lOto 15kmanhouralongthe dusty tracks, only breaking the journey at Likua, almost half way, and for breakdowns be­fore reaching Mavinga.

The 10 white trucks are car-

rying 85 tons of food, medical supplies and six mobile ware­houses for the UN agency World Food Programme, the Ameri­can non-governmental organ­isation's International Medi­cal Corps (!MC) and World Vision International (WVI) who are also participating in the SRPA project.

!MC regional director for Southern Africa Mike Wertlzel, who has been working in.south­eastern Angola since Septem­ber 1990, said the health situ­ation in the region wlls,gener­ally poor although residents were health conscious in spite of conditions.

"It's anlazing the health status is as good as it is," he said, adding that there were severe problems with malaria, childhood diarrhoea and respi­ratory illnesses.

At lOhOOonSaturday, as the trucks with their distinctive blue UN flags lined up on the Namibian side of the border, one with brake problems made a somewhat undignified and unscheduled entry into Angola, flattening one or two posts demarcating the boundary.

Everyone, except the driver and a UN official, found the incident rather amusing and the lengthy border formalities got underway.

Visitors are greeted with a huge poster of Dr Jroas Savimbi,

leader of the National Union for the Total Independence of Angola (Unita) and brand new sign boards reading' 'welcome to free Angola, peace and democracy" and "market economy".

Others say "dynamic Afri­can unity with democracy " and "long live peace and democ­racy in Angola".

Meanwhile, the two vehicles ~ journalists were to call home for the, next week, were a story on>their own.

Built in 1942, the practically brand new Swedish Volvo trucks had been filled with supplies and hidden in caves and bunkers in Swedenin case of further hostilities after the Second World War ended. Thirty of them were bought recently by World Vision.

Once the border formalities had been completed, and a toast drunk to the Angolan peace process with the Unila Regional Commander for the Mucusso region, Colonel Jeremias Jahulo, Unita drivers joined their UN counterparts to share the driving on the long haul to Mavinga.

"Goodbye, see you next week" the journalists waved as their mobile homes bolUlCed and lurched down the track in a cloud of dust. - Sapa

Angolan peace marked deep in Namibian bush BAGANI: Thousands of kilometres away from the historic signing in Lisbon, Portugal, of accords to end Angola's 16-year-old civil war, and far from the jubilation in the capital Luanda, the event did not pass unnoticed deep in the Namibian bush.

Friday night found the small Suc!abo lodge on the Okavango River near Bagani, close to the Angolan border, packed with United Nations staffers, relief workers, Angolan officials and journalists preparing for a UN relief convoy to enter Angola on June 1.

As the hour approached for the signing, and with sporadic celebratory flares lighting the sky inside Angola about 25km away, a delighted and excited Angolan Army officer, Major Joao Gaspar, translated snatches of Portuguese shortwave radio reports on the proceedings.

With descriptions pouring in of events inside Angola as the national radio service went international for the occasion, champagne was brought out and toasts were drunk to the Angolans and to a lasting peace in thei r country.

Listening to the speeches from his President , Jose Edu­ardo dos Sanlos, and from Unita leader Dr Jonas Savimbi, a beaming Major Gaspar said he was sure peace Ju'ld finally come.

" As you know every step has been taken in that direc ti on and the most import ,Uli thing

is that both parties are in agree­ment," he said.

" There is the benefit for the first time for the country to have a real democratic politi­cal situation.

"Yes, yes I am convinced the ceasefire will hold. "

Major Gaspar and two other officials were in Namibia to monitor a UN Special Relief Pwgramme for Angola con­voy. The SRPA resumed in March after a temporary sus­pension late in 1990.

The programme requires permission and clearances from the Namibian and AngoL1Il gov­ernments and from Uoita for ' its operations.

On Saturday morning the UN staffers and journalists cele­brated the end o f the war with Uoita Colonel1eremias Jahulo just inside the border, prior to the convoy's departure for Mavinga 380km away.

The regional commander of the Mucusso region in south­eastern Angola, Colonel Jahulo said he too was convinced the ceasefire would hold.

He said Unita would apply the same determination it had shown in making war, to rc-

building Angola, He said it was difficult toput

into words what he and his soldiers had felt the previous night.

" When their is a lot of joy sometimes you do not know how to celebrate.

Nothing can exp-ress the joy we felt yesterday (Friday)," he said, ' echoing the remarks of his soldiers maruring the border post.

The Unita men marked the ceasefire with handshakes with their colleagues: "Because the.se friends are the survivors of these 16 years and we deeply hope that when conditions are changed we can commemo­rate this in a different way," Colonel Jahulo added.

After completeing the for­malities for the 10 white trucks, UN flagged and carrying 85 tons of food, medical and other supplies, to begin their jour­ney, the head of the UN agency World Food Programme in Ni""i!>i" proposed a toast to ( · .. l .. nel Jahulo and the peace I,,()(;ess.

.. May it last a long time and wi th UN help may it stay that way, " he concluded. - Sapa.

SECOND COMMEMORATION O~~E DEMISE OF ~--

IMAM KHOMEINI THE MAN OF THE CENTURY Lamehting the death of Its beloved leader, Imam Ayat­ullah Ruhullah Musawl Khomelnl, some solace can naturally be found by realiz­Ing that the bereavement is being shared by millions and millions of the World - Mus­lims and non-Muslims alike. We have lost a man, who relying on providential guid­ance and help, boldy stood up and marched ahead crushing all the obstacles on the long hazardous path. Others In the world have lost him after receiving his message afterhisdeath and some were just coming to themselves. It was because of him that they were awakening from the slumber they were lulled ivto during the long centu­ries of oppression by coroni­alist plunderers with the collaboratioon with some of their fellow Muslim brothers. Much has been written about Imam Khomeln i and his Is­lamic Revolution - much more will be written .

His death marked the be­ginning of a legend, the birth of new Khomelnl whose Influence will con­tinue to guide and shape the destiny of the Mus­lims presently and others who are not yet born.

The events that have fol­lowed the death of Imam, specially the scenes of mass grfef and public adulation during the funeral ceremo­nies, were a· spontafleous re-assertion of th e M usli ms·: The Islamic Revolution in 1979 was, among other things, history's most tele­vised RevoJution_ The Imam's funeral was likewfse hlstory's most televised funeral. But it was much more ·than a funeral. Eleven years ago, twomil­lion people lined the streets and roof-tops of Tehran on February " 1 st 1979 to wel­come the Imam to rule over that part of the world under Islam. ApprOXimately over ten mil­lion people converged on Tehran from all parts of the world to bury the body of Imam Khomeinl. The world has not witnessed such a gathering of Muslttns atone particular place. Although nearly eighty when ha stepped off the plane onto the tarmac at Tehran,lmam Khomelni was granted ten years by Allah to establish the Revolution on a sound footing. The Imam's career bears curious points of resem­blance to some of the great men of history. His letter to Soviet ruler Mikhail Gor­bachev recalls the letters the Prophet (P.B.U.H) sent to the rulers of his day, inviting them to accept Islam. What a paradox it is that a religious personality, ad­vanced in years (87), should be the inspiration of youth. It "Ias the young - and still is -

no proved most receptive . his message. It is safe to edict that it Is they who

, 11 ~ssume responsibility L execution of his will .

The Image of lmam Khomeinl seems set to be the main Inspiration force of Islam for decades to come. The lmam dead, Is likely to prove even more powerful than the lmam living.

A philosopher once said that all great men are Identified by two qualities: their ene­mies try to make them as bad as possible and their followers are prepared to sacrifice their lives for them. This describes Imam Khomelni, may God bless his soul, for the brief period the world and its entire human population became ac­quainted with him. Imam Khomeini taught the oppressed peoples of the world that they don't have to bow to any pressure and that they deserve to be ·re­spected as human-beings and t ~at they can only liber­ate themselves from their oppressive oonditions by !peir own hands with the help of faith in Allah In their hearts. Imam Khomeini was the only contemporary world leader who displayed true Independ­ence and authority, never once having to consider the reactions from other power­ful quarters of the world before Issuing a statement. He has set a new standard for leadership In the entire

-world and his untimely pass­Ing away has laid the ra­sponsibllityof <X?'1t1nulng this way 0(1 the shoulders of his students and followers. The future of the world was determ~ned ' by .• Imam Khomelni with Islam as his authority. May Allah bless his soul and grant us new and similar lead.ership.

The blography.,of. .the-late lman Khomelnl The way. to vlctory\ 'j I I'

The hlstony of the struggle ofthe peoples ofthe world always remlnds.us of the great figures who ,have been the manifestation of the will of the masses. In the history of the Islamic struggles of the Iranian people we see a brilliant name, Imam Khonielnl, that has been a symbol of love for freedom and In­dependence from · servi­tude. A study of the struggles ofthe nations would show that there have been few who have denounced co­lonialism and paved the way for achieving their goals trough reliance upon the force of the people and the strength of their own Ideology. Imam Khomelnl has won the support of the people who are motivated as well as by the advanced Ideol­ogy of Islam. He has thus given power the long-standing struggles against autoc­racy and colonialism of the years gone by. Putting an end to the domI­nation of the super-pow­ers and colonialism Is not an easy task, but Imam Khomelnl has overcome all difficulties without re­sorting to any Ideology

other than Islam or collu­sIon with any polHlcal wing.

HIS CHILDHOOD Imam Khomeinl was born in 1901 Christian Era. Imam Khomelnl was born In a cleri­cal family. His father, Ayatollah Seyyed Mustafa Musavl was edu­cated in Najaf al-Ashraf and

. Samarra. After completing

his studies, he returned to Khomeln, .l:1ls birthplace, to be the religious leader of the pe<?ple the~e. . The Imam's father was killed at tne age of 42. He had tbree sons ~nd three d~ugh­ters. The Imam's mother, Hajar,was also from a cleri­cal famlly'. She was, ~he daL!ghter of Ayatollah Mlrza Ahmed •. an 9xaltedr theolo-. . . ; I _

glan. When he was five months old, his father was killed so he 'eame ' under the charge 6f'hiS paternal aunt Sahlba, and his mother: When he Was 15: flis aunt eame to an untimely . end and shortly afterwards hi.s tnothe'r passed away. Such bereavements, how­ever, strengthened his will.

HIS SCHOOLDAVS Imam Khomeini learned as a young child to read and write. His first teacher gave him private lessons, then he went to school and contin­ued his studies. His older brother, Ayatollah Passan­dideh also taught him Ara­bic grammar and logic and the rudiments of other sub­jects. At the time the center for theological studies In Arak had become renowned un­der the auspices of Haj Sheikh Abudlkarlm Haeri Yazdl, an outstanding theo­logian. The Imam studied literature in Arak and when the center was transferred to Qum, he also went there, residing In the Darushafa School. lmam Khomeini attended leo­tures given by Ayatollah Haerl. Bythetlmetheleader passed away, the Imatn had already become an author-

. Ity on the theological and

canon lawa. He Is very knowl­edgeable in astroflomy, phi-. losophy and mysticism. From the early years of his life, the Imam tried hard to be a self-made person and refined in manners. He was eminent for his virtues in every circle in Qum. He stresses the performance of religiOUS duties and ob­servance of the Islamic ten­ets. He Is a committed and

responsible leader, abreast of the times and well aware of the difficulties of society. The Imam Is well-versed In all branches of the r.atlonal and traditional sciences and began to teach philosophy at the age of 27. t

He has written many bOoks <;/ealing Y<lth dl~ereh~ rellg,~ ious SUbjects. His role at the canter for Jh~ologlcal s.tud­ies· in Qom 'was so · gr~at that, when he was exlleCl ; It was a great 'blow nQt only to thatc enter. but als6 to Islam ~nd the lride~enderic~ of Iran. " Imam Khomeirlilnarri ed the daughter of a cleric at the age of 30 and has two Sons and three daughters.

THE IMAM'S LIFE BE­FORE·EXILE IF WE STUDY "Kashfu-I­Asrar" ,a book written by Imam Khomeini after Sep­tember 1941 we will come to know his ideology In its political and social dimen­sions. His says In this book: "R9ligion is th9 only thing that dissuad9s man from treach9ry and crim9. Unfortunat9ly, thOS9 who take the helm of state In Iran have fals9 faith or no faith at all In religion . Thes9 d9ma­gogues who speak f9rvently of safeguarding th9 Inter­ests of the country ar9 really looking aft9r their own inter­est. If a would-b9 m9mber of th9 Maj/is spends so much buying votes, it is b9cause

. he expects to gain rnor9 once elected. Aft9r a f9w months in office, a minister, suppos9dly poor, amaSS9S gr9at wealth. Are th9y s9rvlng their country whol9h9artedly? I would ratherhav9di9d and r9turn9d to God than /iV9 to

S99 the suff9ring of th9 op­pr9ss9d" Imam Khomeinl

So saying,lmam Khomelnl knew well that the three pow­ers of the country were merely tools In the hands ·of the Pahlavl regime. Else­where in this book he ob­serves: " A govemment that orders,ln 1

defiance of th9 laws of the country and justic9,a group of friends In police garb to assault innoc9nt and chaste wcvnen and tsar off their Hijab and kick th9m is th90ppr9s­sor. " Iran became Increasingly economically and politically dependent upon America. When Kennedy came into power in America, he put forward a new policy based on a series of ostensible reforms in order to exercise more influence In the Third World countries. Such reforms ensured that the urban populations be­came dependent upon im­ported goods and that vil­lagers migrated to cities and towns, denuding the villages and destroying the economy which was established on traditional agriculture and native handlcra~. Instead, the assembly Industry flour­Ished. Through Importing goods and acting as middlemen, many fortunes were made for west­ern capitalists. However, the religious flgures,the spiritual leaders of the Iranian people, dl~losed the evil plans of American Imperialism and the treacherous king who was thel,r puppet. The people of Iran In their struggles against autocracy and colonialism realized the deep attachment between themselves and their reli­gious leaders. Among 50ch leaders, Imam Khomeil'1i was prOminent. To clarify tHe position and so­cial developments, let us cite certaln' Alstorlgal examples.

," r" It,'

PROVINCIAL AND CITY COUNCIl.s In October 1962, the Cabi­n'et approved the bill for the establishment of provincial and city councils. According to this bill , the stipulation of "I slam" which the Constitution of the country ordalned'that all those elected to the Majlls should believe In was omitted from the law and the elected representa­tives could take an oath on any Holy scripture they accepted, not necessarily the glorious Quran. The Ayatollahs in Qum main­tained that the bill in ques­tion was in defiance of the Constitution. The Shah said 'that Alam, then Prime Min­ister, had taken th is action on his own. lmam Khomelni , in his cable to Alam, op­posed the bill and for the first time issued warnings against such councils and the Zionist line and called the people to struggle.

. He protested against people being tortured, jailed and executed merely to safegaurd the interests of Zionism and America. Pub­lic opposition surged. The

religious 'circles - of Qum proposed that all the people of Iran strike. The gover­mant declared a state of crisis in Tehran. The Prime Minister at a press conference held two months later announced the approval of the bill for provincial and city oouncils as null and void. At the same time Imam Khomeini protested against the dissolution of the Majlls, the lack of freedom of the press and the Intervention of Zionism In Iran. The remarkable victory of the people in this matter paved the way for more In­tense opposition on their part to the so-called "Revolution of the Shah and the people" which was nothing but the plan put forward by Ken­nedy for making the Third World countries economi­cally more dependent on the US.

The Referendum on the 6th Bahman In 1962, Imam Khomeini prot9st9d against the actions of the criminal regim9 of the Shah that W9re safsguard­ing the int9rests of Zionism and Am9rica. After the points of the "Revolution of the Shah and the people" were made known, the 6th of Bahman, 1962 was fixed for the refer­endum. The Imam called on

• the people to boycott It. At the pqlllng stations, vot­ers were mostly SAVAK agents (the notorlus secret police, Of the Shah). The }treets were empty except for ar!Tledsoldlers, !?Ut t~e propagancja machin­ery of the regime claimed a heady poll, saying 5,6000,000 voters had en­dorsed the six points of the revolution. In th·e,.same year, Imam Khomelnl;.n hl~ address to a multitude in Qum on the occasion of, !pe Fltr feast day (the first day after Rama­dan, the Muslims month of fasting) said: "Stand firm against the ille­gal measures. of the regime. Never fear any show-down. If the government resorts to force, never yield to it. Why should there be a gap between the Shah and the people? The referendum was a fiasco. Let this be a lesson to all the people'swill. We In ourcleri­cal garb are fighting for lmam. No force however great, can silence us. "The Imam's speech was animating. He had referred to the helpless­ness of the regime. Once again he had empha­sized that religion is the main support for the people and never advocates a puppet regime of American Imperf­alism.

Events ' of 1963 The religious circles in Qum had declared that the Mus­lims should not cel~brate the New Year (the vernal equi­nox) be.:ause the anniver­sary of the martrydom of Imam as-sad Iq 0 fell on the second day of the New Year. The deposed king was dls-

mayed when he saw the people supporting religion and Imam Khomeini, so he decided 10 frustrate his opponents' plan. On the morning of the sec­ond day of Farvardln (the first supporters and SAVAK agents arrived In Qum in cars and buses. Troops in army vehicles armed with ~eavy machine guns poured Into the town. The Imam's home was full of people. All of a sudden anti-religion slogans were heard. At the Faizlyyeh School, some hooligans created disturbances and attacked the people there. The Shah's agents opened fi re on the people and the clerics. The Shah wanted to bully the clergy Into remaining silent so that he could do what he was ordered by America. No sooner had the Imam received the news of the event that he came to mol­lify the mob. He said: " Keep calm. You are the oJJowers of those leaders In your religion who suffered greater atrocities. Such an outrage serves as a boomerang. Many a great figure of Islam suffered death in order to uphold Islam and entrustitto you. Therefore It is up to you to preserve this sacred heritage. The Imam's speech carried weight not only because the speaker was threatened with death, but because at such a critical time he promised victory for the people and defeat for the Shah. Imam Khomelnl requested the exalted religiohs lead­ers in Tehrantodlsclosethe atrocities of the regime. He also urged the religious preachers to refer In their sermons to the outrageous behaviour of the regime towards the clergy, to the threat of Israel and its agents and to the actual to Islam. _ linam Khomeini was always welcomed warmly by the people. . The heartfelt support that the masses gave the relig­ious leadership filled the re­gime with frustration. The regime saw this as an ob­stacle to its poliCies. The only religious figure remain­ing who gave the religious leadership weight with the people and allowed It to be a determining factor in Iranian society was Ayatollah Khomeini. Thus he was threatened by SA V AK to stop giving ser­mons at the Faiyzlyyeh School. However he went there on the afternoon of Ashura (the 1 Olh of Muhar­ram, a month In the Islamic calendar) and said: "We have come to the con­clusion that they are against Islam and the religious lead­ership. Israel wants to dis­credit the Quran, our Holy scripture, and wipe out the religious leadership. Israel wants to tighten its grip on our economy, trade and ag-riculture, -

The 15th Of Khordad -June 5, 1963 This crushing speech caused the Shah to fly Into a rage. On the night of the 15th of Khordad, troops besieged Qum and rushed to the Imam's Home and took him to Tehran where they held him in custody in the Qasr

prison. He W, I:; I,lter trans­ferred to tilt > Isllrat Abad Garrison. ' The next day till) people in ' Qum tOQI5 to till' ::treets and led by HaJ MaS!:lfn Khomeini, the I mam's SOil . shouted the slogan: "Elth,'1 death or Khomeln" " In Tehran, the people demollstrated, shout­ing for his Immediate release from prison . Tile baziilar and the univerlsty In T ehran \Vere closed down. Troops opened fire on tll", people, casualties were heavy. Despite the security crackdown, the next day,l.e. the 16th of Khordad, there were again demonstrations in Tehran In support of lmam Khomeini. In many other cit­ies and towns of Iran the people went out on strike. There was no casualty list available, but some 15000 and 400 people were re­ported killed in Tehran and in Qum respectively. _ The atrocities of the shah's martial law during these days and the support the masses gave Imam Khomeinl were reflected in the foreign press. Although the western press, especially the Imperialist pa­pers, have never been able or willing to appreciate the struggles of the oppresed

. people of the world to rid themselves of the yoke of colonialism, the 15th Khor­dad uprising and the leader­ship of Imam Khomeine made a great impression on them which could not be over­looked, The strike was broken and the Bazaar reopened when the people received the news that the Imam was well and In good health. Nearly _ two months later, he was 'trans-' fer red from his prison to a SA V Ak - owned house in Davoodieh. This lessened the public tension.

After Imprisonment Nearing the first anniversary of the Faiyziyye massa~~e, troops once again occupied Qum, but under strong public pressure, the Imam was re­leased from prison and re­turned to Qum. His first speech delivered at the Azam M;'IsJld: "They call us reactIonary. Certain foreign newspapers are brIbed lavishly to say that we are adverse to all reforms and try to lead Iran back to the Middle Ages. The "Ruhaniyat" oppose the adversity the people suffer here. We want them to maintain the independence of the country. We do not want them to be humble servants of others. We do not oppose civiliza­tion nor does Islam. You have violated all laws, whether human or divine. The radio and television programs are nerve-shatter­Ing. The press poisons the minds of the youth. You have here military experts from Israel. You send Iranian students to Israel. We oppose all this. We do not oppose freedom for women, but we do not want women to be made-up dolls for the purposes of men. Your educational system is at the service of aliens. Besides disclosing the evil schemings ofthe Pahlavi re­gime, the lmam always urged the unity of Islamic nations against Zionism and Imperi­alism.

Extraterritoriality

The puppet government of Mansour, the then Prime Min­ister, submitted the bill of the Majlis (the Lower house of the Iranian legislative branch of the government during the Pahlavi regime) which passed it. The lmam was soon informed of this treacherouS act and' In a speech he explained his rec:.sons for opposing the bill. In less then ten minutes more than 40,000 copies of an announcement embodying the Imam's views were dis­tributed by his supporters in Tehran. The Shah feit so threatened

by the power of Aycitbllah Khomeinl that he arranged for his exile.

The Imam's Life in Exile. On the night of Aban 13, 1343 (November 1964), Oum was again , occupied by troops. They arrest9cl the Imam and drove him to Mehrabad Airport to send him into. exile In Turkey. In the morning the people of Qum were not allow8d to leave their homes and troops surrounded the houses of the religious leaders. Ha] Mustafa Khomeinl was ar­rested and transferred to Tehran and put In prison. He was likewise sent into exile in Turkey some two months later. Cables were sent to the Turkish Embassy in Tehran in support of the religious leadership. Meanwhile, Hassan Ali Mansour, who was rasponslble _ for the bill and the exile of the Imam, was assassinated by a member of the Fedaveen-e Islam. The following letter was addressed to the UN Co m­mitte of Human Rights, dated April 1965, "We would like to draw your attention to the measures the UN might take against the policies of the Iranian government aimed at violating human rights. The matters have been given pub­lidty in the "New Y6m Times'; "The Times" and "Le Monde" issues of November 5. The religious leaders of Iran have been sent into exile as a "security measure". The top religious figures are jailed and nearly all other leaders are under police sur­veillance at their homes. The exile of fmam Khomeini to

Izmir, Turkey, Is the wor~tof all, Violating Articfe 14 of the Constitution of Iran to leave his residence to reside else­where unless otherwise stipu­lated by the law. Charged with revolt, the lmam has been under po­lice survei/ance in Qum since 1962. So, how can he be

'guilty of later provocation? This is practIse of the Turk­ish government to accept a religious leader of so con­sIderable a calibre In its ter­ritory and keep him under control. We shall appreciate your in­vestigation into the merit of the case and your decision thereon as the UN Charter

stipulates. -The Turkish government under pressure was obliged to transfer the Imam to Iraq with the collaboration cif the Iranian regime. The Iraqi g9Varriment agreed with such a · transfer, pro­vided that Ira'1 had no right to intervene In ttie Imam's fate, freedom of activities or length of his exile-in Iraq.

Exile to Iraq _ The Imam lived In exile In Turkey only for a short pe­riod during which he was engaged in writing books. In Najaf, Iraq, he resumed his activities, but in an announce­ment he pointed out that the resumption of his activities should not be considered as termination of his exile and the public should be enlight­ened accordingly. The lmam's position on sodal and political problems of Iran while he was In exile in Iraq are well defined in his mes­sage to the people of Iran and to the center for theo­logical studies in Qum. An instance of corruption of the monarchial regime was the celebration variously titled the occasion of 2500th an­niversary of the monarchy in Iran, or the 50th anniver­sary of the Pahlavl reign or the coronation of the de­posed king. The extravagance for such foolish pageantry was a burden on the nation. The Imam's message in this connection reads as follows: " The tyrannical regime thinks I am pleased with my life. I would rather have died and returned to God than live to see the suffering of the oppressed masses. I deem it my duty to protest. " "We have been told time

and again not to Interfere in the -state-affairs. We have been banned to stop struggling against the regime. But the history of mankind bears witness that It was always the prophets and the religious figures who rose against ,autocratic rul­ers." "The clerics total more than 150000 in-number, ino/udr Ing theologians of gooct repute as well as great au­thorities on religious mat­ters. If they will unite and give utterance to what they know of the atrocities of the regime, they will no doubt win the day". "Deprived masses starve whereas they have allocated 800000000 rails for T ehran only to hold monarchlal cele­brations. You commemorate the dead, but ignore the liv­ing. The regime ransacks the public treasury and of­fers to foreIgners the full use of our national sources of wealth." -

Martrydom of Haj Seyyed Mustafa Khomeini A sad event happened In Iraq when Imam Khomelni was in exile there. His son, Mustafa was martyred. He lost his life on October 23, 1977 at the age of 48. He Is said to have been poisoned. Imam Khome/nl has over­come all obstacles wIth­out resortIng to any Ideol­ogy other than Islam. He was an auth ority on theo­logical and canon law and also in great learning in phi­losophy, rhetoric and the ratlonl 'sciences

The way was paved for the Imam's return to his country. The Shah's regime seized every opportunity to dero­gate the reputation of relig­ious leadership and theolo­gians and tighten its grip on the masses. There was a flood of cables to Najaf con­doling ther Imam on the loss of his son. In January, 1978 there appeared an article In a newspaper in T ehran de­rogatory to the Imam's repu-tation. ' The people, especially In Qum, objected to It in a demonstration that was stopped by the regime. In Tabriz there was also a demonstration in favor of Imam Khomeini. In recent years the repres­sive and dictatorial meas­ures taken by the regime reached their peak, but there were also mass demonstra­tions almost all over the country. Meanwhile, the Imam had intensified his activities in Najaf, causing the Iraqi po­lice to bring the Imam's house under surveilance, claiming that the interest of both countries had been disre­garded by him. This began in 1978. The Iranian people and the religious leadership objected to this action of the Iraqi government. The heads of states, members of the Arab Resistance Front, who had gathered in Damascus in­tervened. Iraq ordered the police to lift their surveilance saying it was just a misun­derstanding. Still suffering too many difficulties and too much pressure, the Imam left NaJaf for the Kuwaiti

frontier on October 4, 1978 but Kuwait did not grant him permission to enter. He was forced to return to Iraq and then left for Paris two days later. Opposition and demonstra­tions surged in Iran. Demonstrations on .. Black Friday", September 8, 1978 and" Student Day', Novem­ber 4, 1.978, resulted in many deaths; the seventh and the fortieth days of these mar­tyrs' deaths witnessed addi­tional demonstration of the people at the Behesht-e Zaahra cemetry, south of Tehran.

On December 10 and 11, 1978, at Tasua and Ashura, millions participated In mas­sive rallies. On ~Ianuary 19, 1978 there was a march and rally all over the country whose resolution reads partly as follows: Deposition of the Shah who, with his father, has usurped the throne. Formation of an Islamic revolutionary Council on the part of Imam Khomeini and preparations for a referen­dum to decide the future of Iran. The Shah fleeing the coun­try has appointed Council on the part of lmam Khomelnl and preparations for a refer­endum to decide the future of Iran. The Shah fleeing the coun­try has appointed Bakhtiar as prime Minister in the hope that he might pave the way for his restoration to power. Although Bakhtiar promised certain reforms, the people did_ not believe, in him and asked earnestly for the Imam's return to Iran.

Return to Iran Imam Khomelni, the Leader of the Islamic revolution, returned -to his native land on February1, 1979. The people welcomed him en­thusiastically, a welcome un­precedented in history. From Mehrabad AirpOrt, the Imam went to Behesht-e Zahra, the cemetery for those fallen in the cause of the Revolu­tion, and addressed the crowd there. a week later the Imam appointed Mehdi Bazargan as Prime Minis­ter. In his announcment of Feb­ruary 10, he asked the people not to leave the streets even though a curfew had been announced by the Bakhthar government. The next day the important centres of the government fell. The Islamic Revolution of Iran was vlctorius, thanks to the wise and powerful leadership of the Imam. He accepted no title nor position in the govern­ment and countries to be the spiritual leader of the nation. The Imam has never set aside the interests of Islam.

Peace threat JAKARTA: Cambodianpeace talks here were threatened yesterday by a continuing squabble over leadership of the Supreme National Council (SNC) and changes proposed by the Phnom Penh Govern­ment to a UN peace plan, dip­lomats said.

Resistance leader Prince Norodom Sihanouk said the ousted Kluner Rouge regime had rejected a plan for an ex­panded SNC with hinlself as chairman and Phnom Penh premier Hun Sen as co-chair­man - along with their call for an extended cease-fire.

More troubling, diplomats said, were several amendments to the peace plan proposed by Phnom Penh, incl).Jding an inter­national tribunal to try thc Khmer Rouge for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Cambodians <iurin& its rule from 1975-1979.

The talks are a new attempt to nail down details of a plan dnlfted by the :five permanent members of the UN Security Council thai would put Canl­bodia lmder UN management pending elections. The four Cambodian factions approved the framework in December.

Doubts over Jordan's call for peace talks

JERUSALEM: Israeli politicians dismissed King Hussein's recent call for talks with Israel as aimed not at Jerusalem but at Washingt~)O, news reports said yesterday.

IRA deaths BELFAST: The security forces shot dead three members of the IRA during an undercover operation yesterday, British news reports said. Police would say only that three men, be­lieved to be connected with the Irish Republican Amly, were found dead in a burned out car after an encounter with an army patrol.

"I only hope that this isn't some gimmick by the king to try to gain points from the Americans so that they push Saudi Arabia to give him eco­nomic aid," said labour legis­lator Binyamin Ben-Eliezer, a former co-ordinator of the occupied territories .

The Jordanian ruler's hint that the time had come for Arab states to start talks with Israel, as reported on Sunday in th! French magazine Le Point, prompted Israeli leaders to offer to meet with him.

"We feel we should meet everybody ." Hussein was quoted in Le Point as saying.

"I invite him to come to Jerusalem," Israeli Foreign Minister David Levy said on Sunday. "He will find here an Israeli government that is ready to discuss the peace process with him. .. But a palace spokes­man in the Jordanian capital, speaking on condition of ano­nymity, said yesterday it would be incorrect to say the king called for direct negotiations with Israel outside of a Middle

East peace conference proposed by the Arabs.

And an Israeli ForeignMin­istry spokesman, speaking in exchange for anonymitY, noted there had been no formal com­munication between Israel and Jordan about a possible meet­ing, only the comments reported in the news media.

More squatters than whites JO!-lANNESBURG: The num- . ber of black people living around the cities of South Africa in shacks or other owner-erected housing, exceeds the total number of white people in the whole country.

This has emerged from the second edition of JOM Kane­Bernlan 's book, South Africa's Silent Revolution.

Published jointly by the South Afiican Institute .) fRace Rela­tions and Southern Book Pub­lishers, the book is being trans­lated into German in time for the Frankfurt Book Fair later tlus year, according to a news release yesterday.

Kane-Berman, the executive di rector of the SAIR, noted that in August 1990 the Gov­ernmcnt had made a commit­melU not to demolish the shacks

.

of squatters without first con­sulting the communities con­cerned. Instead of seeing such housing merely as a nuisance to be removed by a bulldoz.er, the Government now regarded it as part of the solution to the country's huge housing short­age, Kane-Berman noted.

A landmark event in the evolution of this policy was when Eskom introduced elec­tricity into Orange Fann, a site­and-service housing scheme south of Johannesburg, in December last year.

The changes did not stop there, he noted.

In the field of education, the rapid growth of the African 'school-going population re­sulted in Africans accounting for a third of all univer6ity entrancematric passes in 1991

as against only a fifth in 1981 - in spite of a pass rate much lower than that of other races.

While the average pass rate had declined substantially from around 50 per cent between 1981 and 1988 to 42 per cent in 1989 and 36 per cent in 1990, this could be directly attrib­uted to "the legacy of years of racial discrimination and re­suiting upheavals in schools" .

Progress has also been made in reducing the wage inequal­ity between white and black in South Africa, despite the fact that a high degree of inequality still existed.,

He noted that "between 1979 and 1989, the average white wage in the manufacturing sector increased by one per cent and average black wage by 29 per cent". - Sapa.

Can boredom be blamed for horrific murder?

BOSTON: After Kimberly Rae Harbour was gang-raped, beaten, stabbed 132 times and left to die, attention has fo­cused on the motive for the brutal slaying: boredom.

"There was nothing to do and so I guess we had the impression of going out to the field and kill somebody, " a 15-year-old among the ei~t

teen-agers arrested in the case told detectives.

The eight, from 15 to 19 years old, face murder charges in the killing last October. A judge is expected to rule later this month ..yhether all eight will be tried as adults or if the five who were 16 or younger when the attack occurred will be tried as juveniles.

Harbour, 26, was walking with a friend when the two were accosted by a gang of youths. The friend escaped, but Harbour was stabbed, raped, kicked and beaten. Some of those arrested said she pleaded for her life, telling her attack­ers she had a 7-year-old daugh­ter and offering to have sex with them if they didn't hurt her.

"People will do horrible, blutal, sadistic things in a group that they would never do on their own," said J ames Fox, a Northeastern University crimi­nal justice professor.

"For teen-agers, social ac­ceptance is everything," he added.

In their statements to police, the teen-agers charged withHar­bour's murder said the eve­ning began innocently enough.

"They was supposed to have a party, but they didn't," one 16-year-old told police.

Instead, police said, the group headed to one youth's house, drunk: beer there for a few hours, then went looking for another party. According to a taped statement by another 16-year­old suspect, someone suggested they rob prostitutes instead.

The suspects allegedly then came upon Harbour and her friend. The other woman was hit on the head wi th a stick and robbed, but escaped the mob.

A one-dollar bill - all the money Harbour had with her -­was found crumpled on the ground near her body.

10 Tuesd~y'.\JuJle ~,J _g.91 \

JOHANNESBl)RG: South Africa's main economic engine, the gold min­ing industry, has reached its Rubl­con, says Mineral and Energy Af­fairs Minister Dr George Bartlett.

He was speaking at the mining in­dustry summit, which started in Johan­

. nesburg yesterday morning. Bartlett believed the preser,t uncer­

tainty surrounding the gold mining' industry was triggered by mines clos­ing duwn and the retrenchment of staff after a f l'l'sistent low gold price. Howevcr, these different responses to a low gold price all were symptoms of an aging, if not ailing, gold mining industry.

" With most of South Africa's ma­jor gold mines well over 30 yea.rs old, they have passed their profitability peaks and have become high.cost mines with low grades, long tram ways and aging equipment ."

Little help could be expected from the new gold mines under the present economic circumstances, as most new major gold mines on the Witwatersrand basin would be operating at depths in excess of 2 ooom - costly ventures which could only be viable at a gold price much higher than the current 360 dollars an ounce.

He said the net result was that the main engine of South Africa's econ­omy, its gold mining industry, was slowing down - and that it was appro-

. pri ate to suggest the gold mining in­dustry had now reached its Rubicon.

" The all-encompassing themes at this summit should be to detennine ways and means of managing change in South Africa' s gold mining indus­try at this crucial time in its history ...

Battlett said the government was

sympathetic towards any propos;ds to prolong the lives of mines and mining operationS"as lollg as possible due to the eivo!al role of gold in South ~f" rjca's economy.

Financial assistance to the tune of R385 million was granted between 1968 and 1987 under the Gold Mines Assistance Act, w.hich hau , ince been repealed. In 1991, the Cabinet recon­firmed its willingness to assist mar­ginal mines and approved certain guidelines. Since then, the Interde­partmental Committee had considered 17 applications.

The government did not, however, view state subsidisation of mines as a permanent or long term solution to the problems of an ailing mining industry, Bartlett said.

" 1bis can only be a temporary measure to bolster the industry with the hope that commodity prices will recover or costs will be brought under control.

" Prolonged subsidisation of min­ing can, in due course, have immense detrimental effects on the industry and the country. "

Available tax revenue instead was urgently need to meet the rapidly growing demand for raising the stan­dards of education, rriedical care and housing of the country's rapidly ur­banising population.

Bartlett said the government ac­cepted its responsibility to assist in the retraining of retrenched miners and to assist communities affected by mine closures. - .-

On international competition, he noted that since the mid-1980s the position of South Africa' s mining industry as an international competi-

He warned that the country' s -wl­mined gold reserves were becornUlg too unprofitable as a result - and that some 1,2 billion tons of ore mjght thus not be mined in South Africa . .

Some 4 500 tons · of gold worth about R460 billion could be lust to the country's gold resource heril age.

"These are extremel y sobering sta­tistics I have sketched, which do not project a very positive picture for South Africa's future economic growth i f we are not able to effectively address the great challenges facing us.

"If the forthcoming period ·of change is not correctly managed, our nation can be plunged into the pits of poverty and despair as has been seen else­where in Africa and the Third World, and also in the so-called planned econo­mies of the socialist-mantist nations of Eastern Europe."

The collective wisdom of the thfee major participants in the minerals industry - the labour unions, mining companies and the government - would be needed to manage the industry during the crucial period of social, economic and political change in South Africa. -Sapa.

Droogtekos bring man inhof

JOHANNES Jakob van Zyl, 'n voorman in die Minis­terie van Werke op Grootfontein, het gister in die dorp vel'skyn op klagte van diefstal en bestuur onder die invloed van drank,

Die beskuldigooe het op 30 Mei twee pakkies beskuit, een pak koeldrankpoeier en vier blikkies gekondenseerde melk nit die skure van die Ministerie van Hervestiging op Grootfontein verwyder.

Na bewering het die man die betrokke dag by die skure lYUlgekom en homself voorgestel as 'n amptenaar van die Ministerie van Hervestiging op Tsumeb.

Hy wou voedselvoorrade he om soos hy blykbaar beweer het dit te gaan verdeel in die droogtegeteisterde gebiede van die noordooste, veral Tsumkwe.

Soos in die hof beweer het die man 'n denkbeeldige nommer van 'n voertuig wat aan die weermag behoort gegee terwyl hy met 'n voertuig van die ministerie waarvoor hy werk was.

Die opsigter wou nie die goedere aan horn gee nie maar hy het horn blykbaar self gehelp deur die km­ideniersware te neem.

Polisie is in kellnis gestel en van Zyl is later aangekeer. Die goedere is teruggevind en na 'n mediese onder­

soek is 'n klag van dronkbestuur teen horn aanhangig gemaak. Die saak is tot 5 JuIie uitgestel en van Zyl is nie gevra om te pieit Die.

Vrouens in hof vir messteek

VICTORIA, Maria en Christine Malgas, almal Xhosa sprekende Suid-Afrikaanse burgers, het gister in die Windhoekse-magistraatshof verskyn op 'n Idag van aannnding met die doel om ernstig te beseer.

Volgens die klagstaat het huIIe gesamentlik op 30 Mei vanjaar Thandi Mwandaba met 'n mes en gebreekte bottels gesteek.

Weens die·afwesigheid vanhul regsverteenwoordigerhet huIIe geweier om le pleit en die saak is tot 10 Junie uitgestel. Hulle is almal op bOl'gtog van R300 elk vrygelaat.

Victoria het agterna op dieselfde klag maar oor 'n ander voorval voorgekom. Daar word beweer sy het op 12 Mei Lucion Madazo met 'n mes op die kop en in die skouer gesteek.

Sy het onskuldig gepleit maar wou rue haar redes verskaf nie. Dic saak is uitgestel tot 8 JW1ie ell haar borgtog is op RHXl vasgestel.

KULTUUR MOETMENSE

VERENIG 'n KULTUURFEES is op Saterdag. 1 Junie, by die die Senior Sekondere Skool J.A. Ne! op Keetmanshoop gehou. Die fees is 'n jaarJikse instelling en die karakter van veral die Namn-, Owambo- en Herero­kulture is tydens die fees uitgebeeld.

Vertonings het gesentreer rondom die dause van die groepe en die tradisioneleplegtighede wat tydens die huwelik p!a­nsvind .

Die verrigtinge is begin met 'n mars vanaf die groot brug op die dotp nn die sportvelde van die skool waar versnaper­inge te koop aangebied en braaivleis gehou is.

Johannes Barman. vo"rsit-

ter van die skoolkomi tee het sy teleurstelling uitgespreek oor diegene wat nie deelgeneem het nie maar bygevoeg dut kultuur deel van die inwoners van die land is. Dit moet gedeel word deur alle etniese groepe sodoende 'n gesamentIik er­feni s le skep.

Pastoor Kheibeb van die Evangeliese Lutherse kerk het verder gegaan deur le se die kultuur wat deur omstandighede in die vedede begrawe is moet opgegrawe word en gebruik word om eenheid in die land te . skep. Kultuur is volgens hom in die verIede gebruik as 'n verdelende faktor maar dit moet nie meer toegelaat word om le verdeel rue.

THE NAMIBIAN

DIEFST AL wat by skole gepleeg word kan beskou word as " nasionale selfmoord" en indien hi­erdie situasie nie opgelos kan word nie kan dit baie negatiewe invloede op die bevolkingvan die land he.

Dit is die woorde van skool­hoof,FestusNuwuseb. van die Augeikhas Primere skool in Katutura. fili 'n inbraak wat vermoedelik oor die naweek

by sy skool plaasgevind het. Hy se; "Skoolhoofde en

gemeenskap sleiers behoort bymekaar te kom om na moont­like oplossings vir die probleem te kyk"

Die laaste diefstal by sy skool het byna die organisasie van sy skool tot stilstand gebring. Leerlinge begin more met hul eksamens en die skool kannic normaaIweg voortgaan met die voorbereidings vir die eksa­mennie.

Twee tikmasjiene, 'n afrol­masjien, 'n muurhorlosie. muurbehangsels. 'n draaitipe stoel vir die sekretaresse en nege opgestopte stoele het vanuit die personeelkamer verdwyn.

Een van die tikmas jiene was gebruik vir amptelike korre­spondensie terwyl die ander een gebruik was vir die vooIbereiding van die vraestelle van die leerlinge. Die grootste gedeelte van die vraesteIIe vir

TuesdayJune 41991 11

leerlinge kan nou nie voorberei word sonder die tikmasjiene nie. Die afrolmasjien word ook benodig om die vraesteIle te veImeerder en die skool moet nou hulp kry van een of ander skool wat bereid sal wees om die skool uit te help. Die mani­ere waarop diewe skoolgeboue binnegaan verkil baie min van die een skool na die ander en moontlik kan daar volgens Nuwuseb 'n oplossing hiervoor gevind word.

amibie is lekker ... Die musiek was goed. Die stemming ekstaties. Die boodskap was ondubbelsinnig. Die doemprofete kan maar gaan na die plekke waar huDe hoort. Onder die bed. .

N=bie is lekker en die paar probleme wat bestaan kan opge­los word as ons nie net sit en wag vir elke kIein dingetjie om te kritiseer en te kla nie.

Namibie is beter as baie an­der lande en diegene wat nog twyfel moes verIede Saterdag

die musiekfues in die amfiteater in Katutura bygewoonhet. Baie van die yolk se jong en mees aktiewe persone het by die amfiteater saamgetrek om te luister en te kyk na 'n verton­ing wat nie sommer in elke land te siene is nie.

Carlos Dje Dje, 'n rastafarier van Afrika, was die hoofaantrekking by die musiekfees in die Amfiteater in Katutura wat oor die naweek gehou is.

SKRYF ... SKRYF ... SKRYF Focus wil u aanmoedlg om gereeld die pen op te tel en briewe aan ons tc~ skryf sodat die menings van ons mense wyd bekend kan word. Moenie huiwer nle. Stel u gedagtes op skrif en lug u menlng. Dit kan situasies red,verander en die land ten goede wees. Dis Focus se doel om 'nwye debat oor alle belan­grike kwessies en aangeleenth~de aan die gang te kry.

Eruge persoon moet baie negatief wees of ander mo­tiewe het om nie te erken die gees by hierdie fees was puik nie en Namibiers wat werklik belangstel om vooruitgang te sien behoort te bou op wat ons reeds het.

Die gees van negatiwiteit wat tans gepropageer word moet nie 'n kans gegun word om alles wat goed is af te breek nie en gewoonte rnisdadigers ver­dien ook 'n pluimpie vir hul mooi optrede gedurende die verrigthlge.

Die man op die foto is vroeer die dag opgernerk in Independ­ence Avenue waar hy en lede van sy groep die verbygangers vergas het m~t 'n heerlike·Af­rika-dans. 'n Paartoeriste wat dopgehou bet, h:t <lit oenskynIik geniet want die pols en ritme

van die Nuwe Windhoek kon duidelik gevocl word in hul vertoning.

Diegene wat dit nog nie be­sef nie moet luister. Die skrif is teen die muur!

Windhoek is oppad na waar hy al die jare behoort het WUld­hoek is deel van Afrika en di­egene wat pamflette strooi wat slegte dinge van "kaffers" se en probeer om die gees van die yolk te breek besef moontlik nog nie hulle doen dit op die verkeerde plek nie.

HuIIe moet rnaar verskoon en vergewe word. Namibiers vergewe maklik. Namibie is lekker en indien meer van ons probeer om saam te trek aan die wa sal ons deur die drif kom. "(Foto en Byskrif: Erich Boois - met apologie aan die kettingwinkel.) .:

IWISA Kaizer Chiefs ' striker Fani 'Didiza' Madida has set a hot pace scoring 15 goals to be in an unassailable position at the top of the Richleigh Shoes top goalscorer of the NSL's CllStle League table.

The 24-year old striker has not looked back since February when, after scoring two goals to draw With IanPalmer of Orlalldo Pirates, Lovemore Chafunya of Double Action Sundowns and Steve Sekano of Moroka Swallows, he switched into top gear in March.

He increasedhis tally to eight by scoring six goals and followed that feat with six more during April and one goal during May to stretch his lead over close rivals Shane 'Chain' MacGregor his teammate at Kaj,zer Chiefs and Calvin Petersen of Moroka Swallows by seven goals.

Madida shared the March monthly award with MacGregor and Petersen on six goals. He scored as many goals to win the April award out-right by beating close rivals, Ian Service of Real Taj and Glen du Plessis of Hellenic by two goals.

Leading scorers: 15 - Fani Madida (Kaizer Chiefs. 8 - Bruce Ray (Hellenic), Calvin Petersen (Swallows), Shane

MacGregor (Chiefs). 7 - Page Mahlangu (Witbank Aces), Abel Shongwe (Dyna­

mos). 6- Greg Hepbum(Crusaders), Marks Maponyane (Dynamos),

Astaphan - the drug doctor found guilty TORONTO: Dr Jamie Astaphan - who prescribed ster­oids for sprinter Ben Johnson and other athletes be· cause he feared they " would kill themselves" if they continued to administer their own treatments - was found guilty of professional misconduct yesterday.

Astaphan stood impassively as a panel of four doctors from the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario delivered its verdict after a brief hearing.

His lawyer, Martin Peters, and college counsel lulian Porter, recommended he be suspended from practicing medicine in the province for six months.

" It is neither too harsl;1 nor too soft," Porter said.

Astaphan could also be fined or suspended for life.

The panel was to announce the penalty later.

Astaphan, who sat quietly

through the hearing, pleaded " no contest" to charges of professional misconduct.

The two lawyers presented an agreed statement of facts outlining how the doctor pre­scribed steroids, obtained black­market steroids , lied about 10hnson' s steroid use after the athlete tested positive at the 1988 Seoul Olympics, falsi­fied his patients' medical rec­ords to omit references to ster­oids and improperly billed the · provincial health insurance plan between 1983 and 1988.

Peters said. " It was anunregu­lated, dangerous environment. "

MOTOR RACE BACK ON TRACK

SA TURDAY is race day again at the TOllY Rust Track, meaning that motor racing fans cau gear themselves fo r ,mother action packed afternoon, especially since four powerful VS's will be there to put up a sizzling performance. •

Fifteen vehicles and 19 motor bikes have entered so far for the event that is generously sponsored by Cohen Cars. The company has also vowed to increase its involvement by actively contribut­ing towards the future growth and progress of motorsport in Namibia.

The SOcc motor bike section, with 10 bikes in contention, will open the day 's events followed by the l00cc bikes, who will tackle their usual eight laps.

In the motor car section, the modified A vehicles will consist of the four VS's which will be driven by some of the country's top drivers.

Some of the guys tackling the modified B section will be well known drivers. Also in this section is a newcomer to the track, Lenuna Kruger who will be driving a Mazda RX.

HENRIKSEN OFF TO ZIMBABWE

NAMmIAN junior squash star, Carl Hendriksen, will be leaving for Hru:are, Zimbabwe, to participate in the Zimbabwe Junior Open Squash Championships from 21-23 June.

The date for his departure is still to be decided. Elzabe Rodriques, chairperson of Junior Squash, said Hen­

riksen was the only one out of three nominees who was able to get sponsorship.

PIRATESSH P T LL SAILING SMOOTHLY As Tigers and Stars play to a draw ...

CONRAD ANGULA

SARUSAS Orlando Pirates scored their most convinc­ing league victory in years when they destroyed a lacklustre Golden Bees 6-0 in a one-sided Rossing Pre­mier League encounter played in front of a well-at­tended Katutura Stadium on Sunday. Pirates led 3-0 at change-over.

The visitors played without any direction and never ap­peared to threaten the home side's defence orchestrated by stalwart Axab Auchamp.

Pirates, playing without five of their regular players includ­ing the live-wire Stephen Damaseb who scored the only goal for a Central Invitation XI against Zimbabwe in a friendly last Sunday, had little diffi­culty in penetrating the shaky Bees' defence and it only took 15 minutes into the first half before Jorries Afrikanerput his side ahead with a well­angled shot from a Bandi Namaseb pass.

The Bees defence, obviously shaken by the early goal, started to lose their cool and a poor clearance from the right-back allowed former Blue Waters ace Moloi Amadhila to blast his first and his side's second home from point-blank range.

Bees defence went every which way and illustrious midfielder Bames Jansen added goal number three from an­other brilliant setter from Bandi Namaseb who was playing his first full league match for the Sea Robbers since the start f)f

the new season. Pirates continued their mas­

sacre of the Outjo side in the

second stanza with Jansennet­ling his second goal of the match with a master blaster in the 55th minute from 35 yards.

TIle Bees goalkeeper looked off-balance between the posts and free-scoring midfiehler African Areseb romped home with a tricky shot that slipped through the goalkeeper's [LU­

gers three minutes later. The Pirates supporters were

still celebrating their team' s fifth goal when Moloi rounded off the scoring-spree with his second goal of the match in the 7Sth minute to make it six.

The victory was welcomed by the Pirates coach Eric Muinjo who was sporting a bright smile after the match. In addition, the club supporters are now full of confidence for the fOIth­coming Windhoek Lager NF A Cup second round match against Ramblers this weekend.

In the other match played at the Katutura Stadium yester­day, BS Tigers nlinus a player held their own against gutsy Pep si African Stars by holding the visitors to a 1-all draw.

Tigers without their midfield match-maker, Richard Kam­banda, wOO.was in Swakopmund for personal reasons, played with authority throughout the match and were even the first

to score. Stocky winger Dave Hiko,

lately signed from relegated Explorer XI, brought the Katu­tura crowd alive with a excel­lent goal in the 17th minute.

Alllooklld set for the Ingwen­yama before the prolific Pule Tjombe, a fonner Tigers player himself, headed in a rebound in the 34th minute which went astray after a thunderous free­kick from substitute Benhardt Newman.

Both sides kept the pressure on in the second half but su­perb goalkeeping from Abiad Dila for Stars and Ephraim Davids and later Asser for TIgers kept the score board unchanged.

Both Stars and Tigers have sent a stem warning for their respective opponents in the second round of the prestig­ious NFA Cup championships this weekend.

Second-placed Chief Santos also !rept their league title hopes alive by drawing both their away matches to Liverpool at Okahandja onSaturday before they went on play to a 1-all controversial draw against Ramblers in Windhoek on Sunday.

It seems that the refereeing problems of this country are far from over as Carlos Kam­baekwa, a Ramblers official himself, was forced to play linesman.

Kambackwa clearly denied Santos a goal that cost them at least two points by waving for an off-side after a Santos player had scored .

This kind of misconduct by a referee cannot add to the upgrading of our standards and hopefully the league authori­ties will give this matter the serious attention it deserves.
