EEN jaar nadat n juwelierswinkel
vanWellingtonberoofis,hetgewapendero-wers weer toegeslaan.
Dit blyk dat die rooftog vooraf goed be-plan is, want die mans
was geklee in uni-forms wat bekend was aan personeel.
Kort voor openingstyd Maandagog-gend,het n voertuigwatduidelik
gemerkwas met die embleem van n beken-de koerierdiens voor
AmericanSwiss in Kerkstraat gestop.
Een van die insittendes, ten vollegeklee in die uniform van die
koe-rierdiens, ook met identifikasie, hetuit die bakkie geklim en
gevra datdie verkoopsdame die deur oop-sluit.
Sy het aan hom verduidelik dathulle nog nie oop is nie en dat
hulle om09:00 moet terugkom.
Hulle het later teruggekom en het toe-gang totdiewinkel
verkrynogvoordatdieverkoopsdames die sekuriteitshek

gevlug.
Kontant van R22 000 is gesteel, maargeen juweliersware is geneem
nie.

Vakansiedae, reg of weg?Frans le Roux
DIE vraag oor of Suid-Afrika te veel va-kansiedae het of nie, is
n kwessie watsorg vir warm debat.
Veral sakelui kla dat die baie vakansie-dae inAprilproblematies
is, enproduktiwi-teit benadeel.
Hoekom moet Vryheidsdag en Werkers-dag binne een week gevier
word, kort nPaasnaweek?Dit isniesinvolnie.DalkkanVryheidsdag en
Werkersdag gekombineerword? was een voorstel.
Ander mense meen dat dit onnodig is omop n Maandag n n
vakansiedag n ekstravakansiedag te h.
Die Regering kan gerus
Paasmaandagkanselleer-dansaldieekonomieniesosleggetref word in die
Paastyd nie.
Verskeie mense wat genader is, is egterbekommerd dat Christelike
vakansiedaemag wegval en is ongelukkig dat Hemel-vaartdag nie meer
n vakansiedag is nie.
Ander meen weer dat ander geloofsgroe-pe ook hul vakansiedae
moet kan vier endat vakansiedae meer eweredig tussen ge-loofgroepe
verdeel moet word.
Werkers wat op vakansiedae dubbelloonontvang verwelkom di dae en
soek selfsmeer.
Groot fabrieke wat elektriese masjineriegebruik om hulle
produkte te vervaardig,word baie negatief geraak deur vakansie-dae
omdat die masjiene dan stil staan.Maande soos April is vir die
meeste onder-nemings n nagmerrie omdat produksie bytye gestaak
word.
Dit issoortgelykaanDesember,wanneer
ondernemings lank toe is enbestellingsniegeplaas kan word
nie.
n Finansile rekenmeester by n fabriekin die Paarl s dat April
vir hulle nag is.Produksie moet dan beplan word
rondomvakansiedae.
Ons vermy produksie ten alle koste op
vakansiedae weens die geweldige elektrisi-teitslading wat die
masjiene gebruik omweer op te warm nadat dit afgeskakel is.
Maar werkers kla glad nie - op
vakansie-daekryhullediegeleentheidomteontspansaammet
familieenvriendesonderomeni-ge salaris in te boet.
Willow van der West-huize: Ek dink al dievakansie kan maar
blywant ons ken dit so.Die meeste van onswerk in elk geval
opvakansiedae. Ek sous my gunsteling va-kansiedag is 26 De-sember
want dan is alKersfees se kos nogoor. Ek kuier graag opvakansiedae
saammet my vriende indienek nie werk nie.

Ashley Andrews: Ekis tevredemetdiehoe-veelheid dae wat daaris,
ons kan lekker rusindien ons nie moetwerk nie. TweedeKersdag is n
lekkerdag om te ontspan,naby aan die Nuwe-jaar. Ek geniet dit
omsaam met my vriendete kuier op sulke dae.
Alrich Isaacs: Ek ver-kies dat al die vakan-siedae bly, en
anderander gelowe moetook meer vakansie-dae geniet. My
gun-stelingdag is Erfenis-dag (Nasionale Braai-dag) want dan
steekons n lekker vuurtjieaan en braai n sappi-ge steak.

DETERMINEDpoliceofficersfromGrootDrakenstein apprehended three
armedrobbers last week, in real cops and rob-bers style.
The incident occurred after an
armedrobberyatafarminBanhoekneartheHels-hoogte Road.
Here five armed men held a man andwoman hostage in their
homestead for twohoursonTuesdayevening,beforeescapingwith numerous
valuables.
According to Groot Drakenstein policespokesperson, Const Rionel
Uithaler, oncethe hostages were released, the man calledthe
police.
A high alert was sent out for patrol vehi-cles in and around the
area to be on thelook-out for suspects. The help of theBoland K-9
unit was also called in.
Earlier the evening, members of GrootDrakenstein police had
spotted a suspi-cious vehicle, but, said Uithaler, only
onepersonwasinthevehicleandwhenstoppedand searched there was no
need to appre-hend the occupant.
Butwhennewsof thearmedrobberywassentoutonair, theofficers
realised that thevehicle in which the suspects had fled,matched the
description of the vehicle theyhad stopped earlier that
evening.
The vehicle was again spotted nearBoschendal and when members of
the dogunitstoppedthevehicle, threemenjumpedout and disappeared
into the vineyards.Another suspect however did not manageto
flee.
Early the following morning, detectiveswere still trying to
track down the fugitives.
They then noticed three suspicious look-ing men near the
four-way-stop in Klap-muts. The men were soaking wet and weretrying
to hitch-hike.
When the unmarked police vehiclestopped, the three suspects fled
into anopen field. One suspect was quickly appre-hended while
another disappeared.
A third suspect continued running whilea detective gave chase.
This chase contin-ued for approximately 4 km, through farmland and
even a dam, before the suspectwas eventually apprehended with the
helpof passing ADT security guards.
Three suspects are still at large whilethree suspects appeared
in the Stellen-bosch Magistrates Court in connectionwith the
incident.
TheyareSiyaSilombo (22),NdivikeMan-ga (38) and Simion Shalong
(23) of CapeTown.

LOCAL lass, MLani Bas-son (32), has been listedas one of 200
inspiringyoung South Africans.
This comes after the
influentialnewspaperMail&Guardiansannu-al list of thecountrys
top200youngSouth Africans was recently re-vealed.
Annually this newspaper com-pilesalistoftheleadersoftomorrow,as
well as in many cases, today.These outstanding young individu-als
(35 years old and under) from allwalks of life, excel in their
variousarenas, such as sports, politics andarts.
MLani was included in this elitelistofyoungpeople
fortheoutstand-ing work which she does amongstdisabled,
underprivileged childrenin and around Paarl through horse-assisted
therapy.
This is a unique form of therapywhere interaction with horses
isusedtoenhancethequalityandpro-ductivity of the lives of persons
withmental, physical, and psychologicaldisabilities.
MLani has already become well-known in Paarl for this unique
formof therapywhichhaschangedmanychildrens lives.
She has on various occasionsbeenhonoured
forherselflesswork,receiving a mayoral award in appre-ciationof
service rendered in theSo-cialServicesField,aJetCommunityAward in
recognition of dedicationandcommitmentandaRotarymeritaward for
services rendered to hu-mankind.
Having majored in psychologyand art in 2003, she wanted to
spe-cialise in art therapy, but did nothave R25 000 for the
course.
Having been an avid horse ridersince the age of three, MLani
stum-bled upon equine-assisted therapyten years ago.
She surfed the internet andhopped onto a plane to
EdinburghinScotlandwhereshestartedwork-ing as a volunteer at an
equine as-sisted therapy centre outside thecity.
Her income came from the farmnext door, where she had to
cleantwenty stables a day and was
re-sponsibleforcheckingaherdofcowsevery two hours during the night
forsigns of labour.
This apprenticeship schooled herfor the future. Today she saves
onveterinary bills by inoculating herhorses herself, cleaning and
trim-ming hooves and teeth.
Amado was then eventually bornin 2006.
Today MLani offers horse-assist-ed therapy to 60 children of the
Lig-straalSchool for thedisabled inAm-stelhof. Groups of children
are dailytransportedbyMLani toherstableson the slopes of Paarl
Mountainwhere theyparticipate inall kindsofactivities related to
horses.
Iamnotoneofthose horseypeo-plewhoareonlyinterestedinthean-imals
because of the image theysometimes represent. I see the po-tential
of horses and what they canoffer the children.
In nature, horses are flight
ani-mals,buttheyalsohaveanimmensesensitivity and can sense who is
ontheir back.
It is awe-inspiring to see a
horsesuchasoldJoseph,wholovestorun,becomemeekasa lambonceadisa-bled
child mounts the saddle.
All my horses are incredible with
the children. If they seem to be slid-ing off the saddle, the
horses willmove with the falling child to stabi-lise it.
MLani has truly had inspiring re-sults from her therapy.
Childrenwhohavetheirentirelifebeenboundto a wheel chair and for
whom doc-tors had no hope, now run aroundher stables and saddle up
horses.
She also has to deal with childrenwhohavebeen sexually abused
andafter only a few encounters withhorses, these children whose
liveshave been devastated, get a newlease on life, becoming
responsive,laughing out loud and enjoyingthemselves.
But being a non-profit organisa-tion remains an uphill battle.
It is aconstant worry where next monthsfunding will come from.
We do apply for a governmentgrant, but this takes many
monthsbefore, and if, it materialises. Wethus rely on contributions
from thepublic and the support of our fund-raising events. The
public can alsobecomeinvolvedwithAmadobyreg-istering us on a My
School card atWoolworths.

in Johannesburg, where MLani was listedas one of 200 inspiring

6 . Paarl Post Thursday 5 July 2012Opinion Menings
MY heart is full of mixed fee-lings, one of gratitude and
theother of deep disappointment,if not loss.
I have laboured in this vineyard(theWesternCape)forsome50ye-ars
and come to regard the wholecommunity of Paarl, with one ortwo
notable exceptions, as a verypersonal blessing. We have someof the
finest and most talented pe-ople in the world.
We not only belong to one ano-ther, but also have an
obligationtogether to make this town andothers like itwork for our
childrenand grandchildren.
It could become a model urbansociety with less rancour and
mo-reappreciationforthegoodthingsthat we have in common and
lessrecriminationaboutapastwecanno longer change.
Mywife,however,hasremindedmethat Idoa lotof grumbling
the-sedayseverythingis always wrong and I must confessthat the
answerwould be to turn offthe news.
Then,whenevery-thing looks bleak, Iget a nice letter fromthe
Municipality,from Ester Kearns office whereshe is our Ombudsman.
Iwrote toheraboutaproblemmymanFri-days and Tuesdays is having
atFairyland and was rewarded witha positive result. It has made
MrMagele Fezile Franks life in
hisdesperatesurroundings,somuchhappier.
What has made me much sad-der, however, is that a
well-dres-sedmanwalked through thebackdoor the other morning while
mywife was busy with breakfast andfeeding the dog.
She thought he was from theMunicipality, but challenged himwhen
she found him in the passa-ge.
He justbrushedpasther,howe-ver,anddisappearedintotherain.In
themeantime,hehad looked inat my bedroom. There, he snat-ched my
wallet and cellphone
from right next to my bed.Fortunately, I was not sleeping
in it at the time, but momentarilyfetching in the Paarl Post
from theverandah.
The mercy is no one was hurt,butweexpectmore respect for oldage,
if not illness, from able-bo-died youngsters who could be do-ing a
useful days work, buildinga future for themselves and
theirchildren.
It isno jokehaving to renewcre-dit cards and driving licences,
butthe real disappointment is thedestruction of ones confidence
inthe community and the future.
Now, I hear that some folk po-singas indigentor
starvingarebegging for money or bread fromcustomers right inside
the super-markets.
Little old ladies inclined to digin their purses for the
necessarymight find theyaredonatingmore
than just alms forthe poor!
That also appliesto those who waylayheavily laden olderwomen on
the wayfrom the shop totheir vehicles.
Could we notjointly find some
wayofpromotingsoupkitchenstofeed thestarving,or justpersuadethe
trade unions to allow our yo-ung folk tostartdoingcommunitywork
somewhere, even voluntari-ly or for a menial wage? Lyingaround the
streets and living offeasy pickings is no investment fortheir own
lives or our future.
Sop Mammies could be put incharge of every block, to
adviseandassisttheirneighboursandli-aise with donors and the
Munici-pality.
I believe that if the communitywants to heal itself, it must
startrightthereinitsownhomes,chur-ches and schools. Self-help is
thebestkindofhelp,butthatdoesnotinclude people who are
caughthelping themselves.
P.S. I takemyhatoff to our localpolice for their friendly
andprompt assistance.
Bring on sop mammies

verledeweek in die Paarl Post te lees datkoopkrag nie meer
goedkoper isas gewone krag nie.
Die rede hoekom baie mensedestyds na koopkrag omgeska-kel het,
was omdat koopkraggoedkoper was. Dit maak sin,want die
Munisipaliteit kry sygeld n maand vroer, en daar isgeen risiko dat
mense nie gaanbetaal nie.
Daar was ook geen basieseheffing, soos met gewone kragnie, so al
jou geld wat jy koop-krag mee gekoop het, het vir joukrag gegee
Van 1 Julie betaal almal die-selfde vir krag en die koste
vaneenhede isverlaagvanR1,37naR1,30, maar dit gaan nie ver-goed vir
die groot hap wat dieMunisipaliteit in sy eie sak sitvoordat ons
koopkrag kry nie.
As jy die basiese heffing vanR4,26 per dag (BTW ingesluit)bytel,
kry jy heelwat minderkrag vir dieselfde geld.
Voorheen, as ek R600 se kraggekoophetvirdiemaand,hetek438
eenhede gekry nadat BTWafgetrek is. Maar nou kry ek
virdieselfdegeldslegs362eenhede- dit is 16,6% minder.
Dit isookniesomaklikomnetjou stroombreker af te gradeer
na n goedkoper vlak nie -
danmoetdiegeyserendiestrykysterafgesitwordtotMaklaargekookhet,
anders skop die krag aan-mekaar af.
Die Munisipaliteit kon regtigmaar die arm man se belange
ingedagte gehou het toe di slimplannetjies aanmekaar geslaanis om
hul boeke te laat klop!
Koopkraggebruiker
Die munisipale woordvoer-der reageer: Dit is korrek datkoopkrag
vir sekere koperstot 16,6% meer sal kos. Dit isegter steeds
goedkoper as virgebruikers met
konvensione-lemeters.Vir600eenhedesaldie konvensionele gebruikernou
R718,64 betaal (R18 of2,7% meer as die koopkragge-bruiker).
Is asking for help like begging?EVEN in a house where the
el-derly pension drawing men andwomenhavefoundrefuge,thereis a
great economic divide (seeletter regarding Huis Lizelle inPaarl
Post of 21 June).
The saying living below therailwaylinehasneverbeenmo-re apt.
Thehaughty fewwhomayha-ve access to funds from friends,family
and widows pensionsseem to think that they are ele-vated to a
higher status.
Caterers and companies of-ten have a lot of left over food
af-ter their functions.
Theyhaveinthepastdroppedthose off at Huis Lizelle, kno-wing that
there is a need in thishouse.
Ihaveneverknownanyoftho-se superior persons refusingthe food or
suggesting that it betaken to a shelter for the needy.
Thankfully the Lions organi-sation has given us boxes filledwith
grocery staples, washingpowder etc. at Christmas time.
Havethesepeopledonatedtheirboxes to those less fortunatethan
themselves?
Yes, we can all admit that ourrent is very reasonable, andfrom
what I understand it wasthe idea of Mr Tienie Malan
toprovideaffordableaccommoda-tion for the elderly. Yes its
trueliving has become very expensi-ve.
Inatownfullofstudentsthereis constantly a shortage of hou-ses to
rent which enables homeowners and estate agents tosend the rent sky
high.
Simply a question of supplyand demand, it is business, butto max
out the rent of the lessfortunate, is inhumane. For theten more
fortunate of us, thereare 20 other people who mayland up on the
street.
Begging isnotonthecards forthese people, they are proud.
Since when has asking forhelp become begging?

THE question of public holidays has arisen again.For many it is
a welcome break, while for others it is a cumbersome
disruption of what should be profitable work-time.Andaccording
toeconomiccharts, thenegative impactof theseholi-
days outweigh the advantages.Firstly, schooling is often
disrupted, with an extra school holiday
given if thepublicholiday falls onaTuesdayorThursday. It
isaknownfact that many of our schools are far behind in their
curriculum.
Not to mention the Mondays that get latched onto public
holidayswhich fall on a Sunday.
Then we must not forget the huge economic impact these
holidayshave on businesses. The financial loss runs into millions
of rands forsome.
Andon topof it all, SouthAfricahasmorepublicholidays
thanmostcountries.
In short, these holidays are counter-productive for a society in
arecession which can least afford time out.
And does the broad public actually respect and celebrate
holidayssuch as Youth Day, Womens Day and Workers Day?
Now Christian religious holidays are also under the
spotlight.Accordingtostatistics,themajorityofSouthAfricansareChristians.
If religious holidays are added on for other religious groups,
it will bea severe blow to the economy.
So maybe it is time for Christians to do the right thing, and
giveup some of their holidays for the good of the country. Surely
one cancelebrate Easter without having the Monday off?
Paarl PostToo many public holidays?
Verhoging van kragtariewe onvermydelikDIE Drakenstein stadsraad
hetreeds moeilike besluite geneemoor die gebruik van
beskikbareenskaarshulpbronne.Onskannie almal tevrede stel nie en
al-mal sal nie noodwendig saam-stem met hierdie besluite nie.
Die hoofbepalers van elektri-siteitsdiensfooie is nie
Draken-stein Munisipaliteit nie, maarwel Eskom en die
NasionaleElektrisiteitsreguleerder (Ner-sa).
As Munisipaliteit word daarvan ons verwag om by hul be-sluite in
te val. Dit sluit in dievermindering van die gapingtussen koopkrag
en konvensio-
nele krag.Tenspytevanhierdiebepalin-
ge sal ons ons steeds beywer omdie reeds armlastige inwonersvan
Drakenstein Munisipaliteitse uitgawes te verlig, sovermoontlik.
Ons het ook n goedgekeurdedeernisbeleid wat wel n direkteimpak
het op die armste van diearmes; deur vir diegene
100elektrisiteitseenhede (50 meerasandermunisipaliteite),asook10
kiloliter water, gratis te ver-skaf.
As huidige leidende party vanDrakenstein Munisipaliteit salons
die belofte soos aan inwo-
ners gemaak is, wel gestanddoen om altyd na ons armes
sebehoeftes om te sien.
Ongelukkig het ons in Dra-kenstein die uitdaging van
mul-ti-laagfinansies van ons inwo-ners wat dit soms moeilik maakom
almal te alle tye tevrede testel en inwoners sal moet pro-beer om
kostes te verminderdeur kragverbruik te beperk.
Ons bly fokus op die doeltref-fende lewering van
munisipaledienste vir alle inwoners.

Geen fondse vir herstel van grondpaaieNA klagtes oor die
grondpaaie in Agter-
Paarl wil die Kaapse Wynland Distriks-munisipaliteit die
volgende terugvoeringgee:
Distriksmunisipaliteite in die Wes-Kaap se paaiepersoneel tree
op as agen-te vir die provinsie wat betrek onder-houd van
grondpaaie.
Die provinsiale padnetwerk se toe-stand word elke jaar
herevalueer deurtegniese personeel sodat fondse aange-vra kan word
vir herstelwerk.
Die realiteit is egter dat die beskikbarefondse vir paaie ook
moet kompeteermet ander behoeftes soos behuising, ge-sondheid en
basiese dienste.
Dit is noodsaaklik om die huidige teer-padnetwerk in stand te
hou teen R8,5biljoen per jaar om te verhoed dat dieonvervangbare
bate totaal disintegreer.
Die tweede prioriteit is om te poog omdie groot agterstande wat
opgebou hetmet die voorsiening van n minimumgruislaag op die
gruispad-netwerk. Die
betrokke paaie in Agter-Paarl, is n jaargelede van n nuwe laag
gruis voorsien.
Die derde prioriteit sal wees om diebestaande geteerde
padnetwerk aan tevul met nuwe teerpaaie as daar nogfondse oorbly,
maar dit is baie duur.
Die gruispaaie vertoon redelik tot goedin vergelyking met die
meeste andergruispaaie in die Provinsie en problememet rygerief
word hoofsaaklik toegeskryfas buitengewone nat toestande
ont-staan.
Waar swaar renbuie uitgesak, het isdit onmoontlik om die
padskrapers da-delik op elke pad te kry.
Die gewone skraapsiklus vir die Wel-lington, Paarl, Stellenbosch
en Fransch-hoek se landelike gruispaaie is gemid-delde elke agt
weke deur twee padskra-pers. As die begroting dit toelaat,
wordselfs na ure gewerk.

Nadat ek getroud is, hetek en my man verskeie be-sighede gehad -
van restau-rante, tot hardeware wat ncourier, kwekery,

Ons het ook ons eie eiendomsportefeuljegehad - dit is waar my
belangstelling in diekoop en verkoop van eiendomme begin het.
Ek het besluit om die eiendomseksamente doen sodat ek die
bestuur van ons porte-feulje kan hanteer.
My pa was destyds by n Rawson-agent-skap en hy het vir my laat
weet dat die Paarlnie n tak het nie.

The cold months bring a surge in household energy costs an
increase of up to 15%: You begin to switch on space heaters Your
house might not be insulated - heat escapes through the ceiling and
through
gaps in windows and doors You take extended baths You cook for
longer periods to prepare stews and other soul-warming favourites
You run additional appliances such as tumble dryers to dry
clothes.
Winter-wise electricity Advertorial
What can I do with 1 kilowatt hour?
Why do I nd winter energy costs expensive?
Your cut-out-n-keep road map to smart energy savings when its
cold outside.
We can feel it in the air the rst little nip telling us that
winter is around the corner. But getting ready for winter doesnt
have to mean heating up your electricity bill. Be winter-wise
during these tough economic times with this step-by-step guide on
how to become electricity smart and save. Lets start our trip and
travel question to question, answer by answer .
Remember, lowering your energy costs and saving electricity
requires a combination of two simple decisions:
Switch off all appliances and lights you do not need and are not
using.
Switch to new, energy ef cient technologies throughout your
home.
Visit www.eskom.co.za/idm for more information.
500 to 750 kilowatt hours (kWh)
Immediate steps:
Lower the thermostat on your geyser to 60C, cover it with a
geyser blanket and insulate the water pipes. The most energy-hungry
appliance, the geyser is responsible for up to 39% of monthly
electricity bills. Consider replacing your geyser with an energy ef
cient alternative like solar geyser or heat pump.
Keep warm this winter by dressing appropriately, use blankets,
hot water bottles and insulate your home. Hot beverages will go a
long way in keeping you warm. Get your winter kit on, no need
toswitch on.
In the event that you do switch on, keep it energy ef cient. We
recommend that you use heaters with a built-inthermostat and a
short warm up time. Consider if the heat required is to project
directionally (like a fan heater orair-conditioner) and nally,
which option will be the safest.
Insulation is one of the most important solutions to improving
the energy ef ciency of your home. Insulated houses stay cooler in
summer and warmer in winter. This keeps ambient temperature in the
home constant. An insulated room requires 51% less energy to heat
up, while warmth generated by heaters is more effectively retained
and does not escape. Insulation reduces the need for space heating
and uses less energy.
How many kilowatt hours would the average household, a family of
four, use in an average month?
Homelight & homepower tariffs from 1 April 2012 (excl.
VAT)
Energy charge* [c/kWh] (incl. environmental levy charge of
2c/kWh)
Block 1(350 - 50 - 600 kWh) 122,21
(* Based on current Eskom tariffs)
The less you use the lower your tariff please see the inclining
block tariff rates below:

peopleand I also discovered thatin the whole of Mbekwenithere were
no conferencefacilities.
As finances becameavailable,Mtalaexpanded,slowly but surely
buildingon more venues at Chip-pas, aswell asanupstairs
conferenceareawith its own entertainment area.
But he did not stop there. Hand in hand
with conference facilitiescame the need for accom-modation. So
Mlatas wife,Gladys, now runs a bedand breakfast from theirhome
which is withinwalking distance of therestaurant.
I would like to see moretourists visiting
Chippastohaveahands-onexperi-ence of what township lifeis like.
Oftenpeople thinkthat only bad things hap-pen here, but at
Chippas
peopleget together toenjoythemselvesandjust have fun.
At Chippas the public choose their meat
at the butchery and there are grillers whobraai it for them in
the many blazing fire-places right around the venue.
They can then choose from traditionalside dishes such as samp
and pap, but sal-ads are also available. African cuisine canalso be
enjoyed. Live music and DJs seeto the entertainment over
weekends.
Mtala does not take any nonsense fromdrunkenness and disorderly
behaviour.
He employs security personnel and noweapons or any type of drug
is allowed onthe premises. Those who disobey are red-carded and are
thereafter not even allowedto buy meat at the butchery. Car
guardsare also at hand to safe-quard vehicles.
Chippas is truly a spot which deservesa visit to enjoy the vibe
of the township.

BIBC strategy to retain industry skillsTHEBuilding
IndustryBargainingCouncilWestern Cape has announced the launchof
its skills data-base, a strategy
designedtoretaintheskillsofthoseemployeesconsi-deredtobeunemployedwithinthebuildingand
construction industry.
With an annual trade turnover of up to45%, the need to maintain
this intelligenceis critical.
The data-base will go live by the end ofJune and is a first of
its kind for the indus-try.
This essential tool is designed to helpcombat the cyclical
nature of the buildingandconstruction industry,a
trendthatad-versely affects the demand for labour.
This industry cant afford to lose its skil-led labour force
during a downturn period,asoncetheindustrystartstoexpandagain,the
critical skills base will be required onshort term notice, says
Arnold Williams,Secretary for the Building Industry Bargai-ning
Council (Cape of Good Hope).
The entire data-base comprises close to500 000 employees
records, dating back
to1983,andistheresultofyearsofITdevelop-ment.
Wewillmonitortheusageofthedata-ba-se to establish trends, which
in turn willprovideuswithabarometeroftheindustry.
The valuable information capturedwithin the data-base is
available, free ofcharge, toall compliant employers toensu-re that
they have access to the skills thatare lacking at any point in time
and from
which the industry as a whole can benefit.We have on average
about 800 compli-
ant employers, at any given time, and weare once again,
rewarding those employersthatsubscribe togoodcorporategovernan-ce,
said Williams.
It therefore, goes without saying thatnon-compliant contractors
will be unabletoaccess these critical skills andwill there-fore be
at a disadvantage.
The data-base will be comprehensive fo-cusingonall artisanaswell
as semi-skilledtrades.
In addition to these, other employmentcategories such as
drivers, general wor-kers, labourers and cleaners will be
inclu-ded. The details of between 8 000-10
000employees,whoareconsideredtobeunem-ployed over a rolling
12-month period, willinclude name, trade category, address
andcontact telephone number.
TheonethingthatCouncilwillnotbeableto confirm is the competency
of the indivi-dual.
Compliant employers will have their re-quirements e-mailed to
them as soon asthey make the request online, concludedWilliams.
Once the service goes live, allcompliant employers have to do is to
log onto the BIBC website, select the Labour Bu-reau tab and follow
the relevant instructi-ons. If you are thinking of building,
ensurethat your contractor is compliant with theBIBC by logging
into www.bibc.co.za orphone 021 950 7400.
