LABOUR: YOU CAN BEAT UNEMPLOYMENT BLUES

The grim horror of joblessnessLAILA MAJIET

@laila_newsie

The dark psychological impact of beingunemployed needs to be brought tolight.

This comes from clinical psychologist DrAdelbert Scholtz, who is urging the need forrecognising the traumatic psychologicalerosion caused by long-term unemploy-ment.

The harmful effect is on both individualSouth Africans and the national psyche.

As the sole provider for his family, *Markslipped into despair after being retrenched.

Desperate to put food on the table, he waswilling to clean windows to earn a few extrarands.

But he was losing hope against the battleto not be engulfed by depression.

“I felt I had failed my family. Having beenthe sole breadwinner for as long as I havebeen married, losing my job made me feellike I could no longer fulfil my purpose,”Mark says. “I felt hopeless and lost, but thenrealised things were not going to get betterif I did not do something to turn my hard-ships around.”

Paralysed by unemployment, he hadreached an all-time new low.

“I began to beg for odd jobs. Being able tobuya loaf of bread felt like avictory and soonmy faith and dignitywas being restored,” herecalls. “This gave me the strength to perse-vere.”

Research shows high rates of long-termunemployment are associated with higherrates of depression, says Scholtz, and cau-tions that depression is the most commoncause of suicide,

Mark has since found a permanent job.“Iwent out there in a bid to restoremydig-

nity, but often felt like I was losing a part

of my soul every day,” the 54-year-old mansays. “I was willing to do anything and witheach new day a new opportunity wouldpresent itself. God opened doors and thatwas a sign that nomatter the circumstances,He will never abandon you.”

One’s identity is ultimately linked to one’soccupation, says Scholtz.

“Your status is also dependent on your oc-cupation. Furthermore work is where wespend most of our time,” Scholtz explains.“If somebody cannot find work, his or herneed for an identity as well as their humandignity is thwarted.”

The adage every cloud has a silver liningmight seem insincere and patronising, butthis is part of Scholtz’s encouragement tothose in the doldrums.

Losing your job may be the best time fora little introspection and re-evaluation.

This includes creating your own opportu-nities, volunteering or learning a new skillor two, Scholtz recommends.

“Hardships are often a test of your faithso it is vital tonot losehope.Create yourownopportunities. Put out feelers for vacanciesand personally hand in your CV. This leavesa good impression as it shows your keen in-terest in a job,” he says.

Volunteering or working for free may notbe such a bad idea either, Scholtz adds.

“It is a good plan to work for free. Yoursupervisor may be satisfied with your workand offer you a permanent position. Beforeyou know it the company will realise theycan’t do without you. It also looks good on

your CV.”Scholtz, also a retired pastor, believes

“God has a soft spot for the poor”.“Often poor people think the Lord has for-

gotten themand thatGod is punishing them,but He has not forgotten you. Never losesight of this,” he firmly states.

“Happiness is not to be found in riches orthe pursuit of pleasure. It is a by-product ofsomething else. It is created when youmakea difference in the life of somebody else.”

The South African Depression and Anxie-tyGroup (Sadag) confirms facing the terrify-ing prospect of unemployment is a realitythat many South Africans struggle to avoidthese days.

With high unemployment rates and thejob market looking increasingly bleak forfirst-time job seekers, the stage is set for theever-escalating prevalence of depressionamong the unemployed.

Unemployment and the resulting depres-sion is a grimchallenge facingmental healthprofessionals.

Sadagmanager CasseyAmoore offers self-help tips to address depression.

“Don’t bottle things up. If you have somebad news or a major upset, tell people closeto you about it and how you feel. Althoughyou may want to be alone, you may feel bet-ter if you try to take part in some routineactivities you previously enjoyed with yourfamily and friends. Increase positive con-tact,” she says.

“Try to make a list of small activities thatcanbedoneoftenduring theday to showpos-itive loving feelings. Maintain a good dietand exercise.

“Get outdoors, even if it is only for a walk.Any form of exercise, rigorous or gentle canhave beneficial results.”V Call a counsellor at Sadag on 0800 20526 or SMS31393.

POLITICAL PARTY: ‘CHARGED’ TO GO ON HOUSING LIST

Bribery allegedHENRY BOOYSEN

@henryspoke

A local political party is in the spotlightfollowing allegations of bribery tohelp the public get onto the City of

Cape Town housing list.It is alleged that the party, Shape, is ask-

ing the public for R200 which will allowthem to either get onto the City’s housinglist or reduce their time waiting for subsi-dised housing.Ward councillor Melanie Arendse says:

“Members of the public came to my officedemanding answers because theywere toldby Shape if they pay a certain amount ofmoney theywould receivehousing from theCity of Cape Town.”“This is the first time I heard that people

have to pay to get onto the City’s housinglist. I informed them about it being a scamand they need to report the matter to thelocal police.”Shape is a registered political party from

Ottery and is chaired by Ottery residentAmien Albertyn, who vehemently deniesthe allegations.“This is not the first time I am hearing

these allegations against Shape. I do not as-sociate the party with such kind of behav-iour. We do not form part of City counciland do not accept these allegations,” saysa seething Albertyn.But Albertyn says the party had a former

employeewho had asked residents formon-ey. “We had an employee who was part ofthe party. She was allegedly dealing withsubsidies andwas verywell connectedwithofficials within the structures of the City ofCapeTown.We foundout shewasbusywithdodgy work and did not want her to tarnishthe reputation of the party andwe fired her.

We do not associate our party with thesetypes of allegations,” he asserts.A Grassy Park resident, who spoke on

condition of anonymity, says she had re-ceived back her R200 from a Shape partymember after threatening to go to the po-lice. “I received back my money after Iwarned them about my plan,” she says.Ward councillor Clive van der Merwe,

who forms part of the City’s Human Settle-ments Portfolio, says residents also ap-proached his office to intervene.“I cannotmake decisions on hearsay,” he

says.“ I told the residents that they need to get

affidavits and show me the receipts and wecan then follow thenecessary steps.We can-not allowour residentswhohave beenwait-ing more than 20 years to get a house, bemanipulated in such a manner.”Siyabulela Mamkeli, the Mayoral Com-

mittee member for Human Settlements,says aggrieved residents need to forwardthe proof to theCity of CapeTown for actionto be taken.“We urge residents to come forward with

information and proof of instances wherepromises are made regarding housing op-portunities that will be provided on receiptof payment,” says Mamkeli.“Once specific information has been re-

ceived, we will be able to advise residentson the correct processes and whether thereare irregularities.”Mamkeli warns residents if they are ap-

proached by anyone to give payment, theyneed to ensure their housing office estab-lish the validity of the requestmade for pay-ment. “No one has the right or the meansto place someone on the City housing data-base with a purpose to give them prioritytreatment for a house.”

SCAMS: BEWARE PROMISES OF INSTANT RICHES

Greed comeswith a priceMICHELLE LINNERT

@linnertMB

M ost people have at some pointreceived emails announcing theyare new “millionaires”.

Fortunately most don’t fall for the so-called 411 scams and remain skeptical oftheir luck at winning a “foreign lottery”or an “inheritance”.One such skeptic was People’ Post

reader Petro van der Merwe.She came across a new version of the

sameold trick that has seenmanypeopleunwittingly lose their money to thesweet talk of instant riches.In Petro’s case, a certain “Mr Rhaji

Haid” from Darfur in the Sudan wantsto transfer his imaginary father’s imagi-narymillions of dollars into her bank ac-count – for “investment purposes”.He uses political turmoil as the reason

for the impromptu request.She shared the email with People’s

Post.

It reads: “Though I have not met withyou before, but considering the recentpolitical instabilities inmycountry, I be-lieve one has to risk confiding in successsometimes in life (sic).“There is this huge amount of money

(US$8.5 million) which my late Fatherdeposited in a bank awaiting claim be-fore he was assassinated by unknownpersons during this war in Darfur, Su-dan.”Petro contacted the Bellville police to

try and find the origins of the email, andtold Captain Fienie Nimb about it.“I received this email from someone I

don’t know. And don’t know how theymanaged to getmy email address,” Petrosaid.Nimb confirmed it was definitely a

scam.“Many people still fall for this.We’d

like to once again warn people not to be-lieve the sender. Also, try not to opensuch emails and definitely not to replyto, or even consider the content.”

THE RIGHT FIT: Donations for the People’s Post Books and Board Games Drive are pouring in as readersopen their hearts to this newspaper’s 67 Minutes for Mandela initiative, keeping Rhodes Universityjournalism student Toni-lee Edwards and journalist Astrid Februarie busy sorting. The aim is to establisha library at the St Georges’ Girls’ Home in Wynberg. The space for the library will be turned into achild-friendly environment, complete with books, board games, puzzles and magazines. If you wishto donate books and board games still in a good condition, call (021) 910 6500 or email [email protected]. Playdough, colouring-in books, crayons, gel pens and journals or scribblers are also welcome.

WITTEBOME: SUBWAYS SUBMERGED

Flood of outrage in WynbergMONIQUE DUVAL

@monique_duval

The flooding of subways andtunnels near Wittebome trainstationhas seenmore commut-

ers resorting to crossing the rail-way line.Residents living in Castletown

Road claim the two main entrancesto the station have been prone toflooding and question whetherdrainage mechanisms are function-ing.Resident and commuter Jeanette

Stoffels explains the first subway isowned and managed by the Passen-ger Rail Agency of South Africa(Prasa). This subway leads commut-ers directly to Wittebome station.Stoffels says during heavy rainsthis subway floods and commutersliving in Wynberg East cannot ac-cess the station. During a walk-about of this subway, no watercould be seen in the subway. How-ever, stagnant water was evident inthe drainage channels.Metrorail spokesperson Riana

Scott says there have been sporadiccomplaints about the tunnel.She says there is a pump which

removes water but during heavydownpours it may not be able to re-move large volumes of water imme-diately.

“Any pump only has capacity topump a certain volume of waterwhich is determined by the initialdesign of the station, plumbing, lo-cation and capacity of the catch-ment area,” she explains.Subways are designed with sunk-

enwetwells below thewalkway sur-face,” Scott says.Therefore any seepage, ground-

water or floodwater first flowsthrough the gullies into the wetwells, where the pump removes it.“This process happens through-

out the year, even during dry sea-son, there is constant seepage espe-cially in areas with a high water ta-ble,” she explains.Flooding in subways, she adds, is

exacerbated by thugs vandalisingpumps and wiring, as well as debrisleft by vagrants blocking inlets.Stoffels says when this subway is

flooded commuters walk to a tunnelat the intersection of Park andCastletown roads which runs un-derneath the railway line.This tunnel, Scott says, is man-

aged and owned by the City of CapeTown.It is filledwith dirtywater and lit-

ter and human waste can be seenfloating on the ankle-deep water.Stoffels says this is a result of the

tunnel being home to vagrants.“They mess everywhere and

when it floods we are hit by thesmell. The tunnel is a risk to publichealth,” she explains.When this tunnel is flooded com-

muters and residents either have touse Rockley Road to access the sta-tion but many have resorted towalking over the railway lines to ac-cess the station.Residents are calling on Prasa

and the City to take urgent action.The City could not provide an-

swers on the flooding of this tunneland say they are “looking into thematter and will engage with all re-sponsible parties in order to rectifythe situation”.Scott says they have received re-

ports about commuters crossing therailway line due to flooding.She explains there is no immedi-

ate relief as the pump needs time todo its work.“Crossing the line at will, and in

any place, can be extremely danger-ous, whether it is at the stations oron the open track,” Scott says.But when access to subways and

tunnels is restricted, Scott explains,security staff have been tasked to“accompany commuters across therail tracks in a safe and supervisedmanner”.V Have you used these tunnels and sub­ways? Starting with the word “Post”, SMSyour experiences to 32516. SMSes cost R1.

Aunty Katie is a royal favouriteGARY VAN DYK

@gvdcapejazz

Aunty Annie “Katie”Carelse is hob-nobbingwith the aristocracy.From Bonnievale Court

in TheRange, Elsies River,she celebrates her birth-day on the same day asQueenElizabeth (21April).So when she turned 74

this year she decided towish the Queen well for88th birthday.“I was feeling a bit down

so decided that I wanted towish the Queen and tellher abit aboutmyself,” shesaid.She dictated the letter to

her grand-daughter and itwas sent off to Buckhing-ham Palace along with apicture of her.Imagine their surprise

when on 28 May they re-ceived a reply from one ofthe Queen’s Ladies-in-Waiting.“The Queen wishes me

to write and thank you forthe kind message whichyou have sent on the occa-sion of her 88th birthday,” read the letter.“Although unable to reply to you per-

sonally, Her Majesty was touched by thesentiments expressed in your letter andappreciated your thoughtfulness in en-

closing a photograph of yourself for theQueen to see. Her Majesty hopes that youenjoyed your own birthday celebrationsand I am to send you The Queen’s mostsincere thanks for writing as you did.”

BEST WISHES: Aunty Katie with the letter that shereceived from Buckingham Palace.

More reliable birth control on offerAnadded formof birth control is nowonofferfor women in the province.The provincial health department is now

offering Implanon and this offers 100% pro-tection.

Implanon is implanted in the upper armand lasts for three years.Through slow release of progesterone, a

woman may prevent falling pregnant.

The process is virtually painless due to lo-cal anaesthetic used before insertion.Implanon is fairly new in SouthAfrica, but

has been used in many European countriesfor a number of years and is the preferredform of birth control for many women, saysa health department statement.The whole process, including counselling

and paperwork, takes about 30 minutes.

RESTITUTION: NEW OFFICE OPENS IN MOWBRAY

All systems goNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

A n office to facilitiate thousands ofland restituation claimshasopened inMowbray.

The land claims process opened last week,allowing South Africa’s victims of land dis-possession to lodge their land claims, for aperiod of five years.Claimants need to apply in person, says

Department of Rural Development andLand Reform regional spokesperson Vuy-ani Nkasayi.“Any claimants must provide a a certi-

fied copy of your idenity, a signed letter au-thorising you to act on behalf of your familyor community and signed by twowitnesses,a list of the people you represent anda letterfrom theMaster of theHighCourt if you arethe executor of an estate. Alternatively, youmust have a written decision from a com-munity meeting, signed by the person whofacilitated the meeting, if lodging on behalfof a community,” he says.District Six Working Committee chair-

person Shahied Ajam says many familiesdid not place claims during the original res-titution process as themessagewas not car-ried across the Cape Flats by mass media.In addition, many families relocated sever-al times after the removals.This meant government was not able to

easily trace them and important documen-tation was lost.“Education is a big part of our work,”

Ajam says. “We must teach people abouttheir rights and the duties of government.Wewant the people of District Six to realisetheir value and their worth. True restitu-tion must be practised.”Claimants will have to provide certified

copies of their ID and those of their parents,Ajam says.Certified copies of any physical records

of the family’s address, such as bills orschool reports, must also be provided.Records can be accessed at the archives inRoeland Street or affidavits obtained fromneighbours, he says.A programme is also being established to

providemobileunitswhichwill travel to re-mote areas of the province, Nkasayi says.“In ensuring that we reach all corners ofour communities, the department will de-ploy mobile units to ensure that we reachevery citizenwho qualifies to lodge a claim.You do not need to pay anyone to lodge aclaim as all claimswill be filed electronical-ly,this time around.You need to completethe electronic form personally and on yourown behalf. We will come to you, through-out the province,” he says.V Claims can be lodged at the Mowbray LodgementCentre at 10 Rhodes Avenue. Office hours are Mondayto Friday, from 8:00 to 16:30.

GRASSY PARK: IPID INVESTIGATION CONTINUES

Cops drop chargesagainst ‘beaten’Parkwood manHENRY BOOYSEN

@henryspoke

T he case against a Parkwood manaccused of intimidation and assaulthas been withdrawn by the Grassy

Park police.Shadley Crowley (24) has been given

the run-around for the past threemonths at Wynberg Magistrate’s Courtafter policemade a counter-charge of in-timidation and assault against him onThursday 17 April.People’s Post had previously reported

on the claims made by Crowley (“Park-wood man claims cop assault”, 22 May).The chargewasmade against Crowley

after a Somali shopkeeper accused himof stealing stock from his bakkie.Crowley says he claimed his inno-

cence when Grassy Park police arrivedand summarily began assaulting him,refusing to listen to his protest.Lieutenant Colonel Christiaan La-

buschagne, acting station commander ofGrassy Park Police Station, says thecharge against Crowley was “with-drawn due to a lack of evidence”.When People’s Post visited Crowley at

the time, he had several bruises on hisneck, back, chest and face he claimedwas the result of the beating at the handsof police officers.

Crowley now adds that although hisbruises have healed he still has difficul-ty with the full range of motion in hisleft hand.“I am still going to the hospital to re-

ceive treatment for my hand. The policebeating has really set me back,” he says.“I have not been working for the past

couple of months because of the beating,but I am going for an interview soon. Ihope I can successfully start earningmoney again,” he says.However Independent Police Investi-

gative Directorate (Ipid) spokespersonGrace Langa says the case Crowley hadmade against the police is still under in-vestigation.“The matter is still under investiga-

tion. Ipid is totally and highly againstany kind of brutality to any person.When investigations are complete, wewill provide more information,” saysLanga.Crowley adds that Ipid has not given

him any feedback on the case he hadmade against the officers.“I am still waiting for feedback. We

cannot let these things happen to inno-cent people and nothing happens,” saysCrowley.V Have you ever been a victim of police brutality?Tell us your story. Starting with the word “Post”,SMS your comments to 32516. SMSes cost R1.

Synchro pair headedfor the big timeLIAM MOSES

@LiamCPT

South Africa’s most talented young syn-chronised swimming duo have em-barked on a punishing training regime

in hopes of making an impact at an interna-tional tournament.Tatum-Lee Petersen from Athlone and

Bergvliet resident Sarah Keyte will repre-sent SA at theMediterranean Cup in Greecein September.The pair usually train for three hours,

three times a week, but from Saturday 12 toSaturday 19 July theywill spend eight hoursdaily focusing on training.Keyte, a pupil at Spingfield Girls’ Convent

School, says its all worth it.“You have to put in a lot of hours for the

sport,” she says.“You have to give up a lot, but in the end

it’s all worth it becausewewill be competingon an international stage.”The Grade 9 pupil took up the sport when

her mother’s friend suggested she give it atry. She was only in Grade 2 at the time andshe has been hooked ever since.Petersen started at the same age when her

swimming coach recommended she give thesport a try.“I like that you are able to express yourself

in ways that you aren’t able to in othersports,” Petersen says. “You’re able todance, but you’re still in the water. It getsyour creative juices flowing. This sport isboth about creativity and physical ability.”For her, the toughest aspect of synchro-

nised swimming is memorising and perfect-ing routines, and timing.The twoyouths started competing as a duo

six years ago, dominating the sport almost

immediately.They aremembers of Barracudas Synchro

Club and are coached by Sue Manners-Wood, the national senior synchronisedswimming coach.She believes the duo is headed straight for

the top of the sport.“They have won their duet in every age

group theyhave competed in throughout theyears,” she says. “They have also been iden-tified by Swimming SouthAfrica as the duetto take over from the current SA senior duet.They have been identified to compete at theCommonwealth Games in Durban in 2020and are being groomed for that competi-tion.”Petersen andKeyte qualified for theMedi-

terranean Cup with a score of 6.3 out of 10at theNationalChampionships inApril. Thepair win gold at the championships.Theywill compete against the sport’smost

elite under-16 teams at the competition. Theworld’s top three sides, Russia, Spain andChina will also be in attendance.But a lack of facilities, finances and regu-

lar competition against top oppositionmeans the girls have virtually no hope ofbringing home a medal, but Manners-Woodhas set her students a different goal.“I look at it in terms of score. I would like

to see the girls improve on the score theyachieved at the National Championships,”she says.“I would ideally like to see my girls get be-

tween 6 and 6.5, which would mean they arevery competent. That would be a goodachievement. I’m also being conservative,because I think they can get 6.8 or 7.”V Petersen, Keyte and the six other members of theteam will each have to pay R30 000 to attend thetournament. Anyone able to assist the team withsponsorship should call Francis Keyte, convenor ofWestern Province Synchronised Swimming, on072 775 2772.

ny is delighted to be the official headlinesponsor of the marathon.“The sport of running is easily accessible

2012, but were knocked out in the quarter-fi-nals by a youthful Milano side last year.Jordan Callies then shocked local football

fans by knocking out Milano in the semi-fi-nals and went on to beat Sporting United 4-3to take the spoils.Both Hanover Park and Callies signalled

their intention to challenge for the titleagain this year,when they recorded emphat-

ic wins in the round of 64 on Sunday.Hanover Park, also champions in 2009,

thrashed Maitland’s Saxon Rovers 4-0 at theBlue Downs Sports Complex, while Callieseased past FC Mimosa with a 3-0 win.The two former champions will advance

to the round of 32 which already shows astrong field, although the all the teams havenot been decided. Central FC and Rygate Lo-cal Football Association’s (LFA) JunctionRovers, the respective champions and run-ners-up in 2011, also confirmed their places.Central knocked out Stephanians-Ottery

with a 2-1 win, while Rovers beat Cape Dis-trict LFA’s RC Athletico 2-1.Several other sides from the Southern

Suburbs have also booked their spots in the
