ON THURSDAY South Africans cele-brate Human Right’s Day. Is it just an-other day off work or do Capetonians
give special attention to their hard-foughthuman rights? People’s Post interns Tarren-Lee Habelgaarn and Luzuko Zini polledreaders.
WENTZEL DANIEL: He feels the right toeducation is important, especially for the newgeneration. “In my days we didn’t have theopportunities the children today have and Idon’t want my children to struggle.”
PHOTOS: TARREN-LEE HABELGAARN AND LUZUKO ZINI
ODENDAAL GERBER: He is most passionateabout the right to access to water. “Peopleshould use water sparingly. There are so manypeople who don’t have access to drinkingwater. Yet you get others who can afford itand then waste it.”
TOBIE STEENKAMP: The right to life is themost important right, he says. “I feel if youtake away someone’s right to live, your lifeshould be taken away. In our country thatright is absolute, not even the State can takeaway your right to life.”
LEE-ANN PEDRO: She says freedom of speechshould be supreme and feels it is what ourcountry needs to move forward. “It is impor-tant and will help our country if people couldexpress what they want, when they want andhow they want.”
TERRI-LEE JENSSEN: She believes it isimportant for people to express themselves.“Freedom of speech is the most importanthuman right because people should be able tosay what is on their minds.”
CHARLES MERRINGTON: “The right to freedomof movement is important. This is not (likein) the old days when you needed permissionto enter certain places. We don’t want to goback to those days, so that right shouldn’t betaken away.”
LAWRENCE LUBBE: “I think the right toeducation is the most important becausewhen a person is educated, they have achance to land a decent job. Should that rightbe taken away a lot of people would behopeless – education is everything.”

New zoning scheme to reshape cityTASMIN CUPIDO
THE Greater Cape Town Civic Alliance(GCTCA) has raised concerns about theCity of Cape Town’s new zoning scheme.The organisation, which is the umbrel-
la body for civic associations across theCape Peninsula, raised these concerns ina press release, issued jointly with theFar South Peninsula Civic Forum.The Integrated Zone Scheme for Cape
Town (CTZS) was launched on Friday 1March, replacing the 27 former “outdat-ed” zoning schemes with a single zoningscheme.The process for the promulgation of the
scheme was divided into five phases,from 2002 until November last year. Itwas adopted at a Full Council meeting inDecember.“The newCTZS, however, does provide
for mechanisms, such as the OverlayZone to effectively respond to the protec-tion and conservation of unique and spe-cific areas within the City,” says CherylWalters, the City’s Director for PlanningandBuildingDevelopmentManagement.“The purpose of the CTZS has not
changed and still provides for the deter-mination of use rights and to provide forcontrols over such use rights. This is aConstitutional obligation of local govern-ment, as part of municipal planning.“This project did also result in the re-
peal of some of the last remains of apart-heid planning, such as those zoningschemes promulgated in terms of theformerBlackCommunitiesDevelopmentAct.”Walters describes the scheme as “mod-
ernised”, as it provides for new land useactivities such as cellular infrastructureand green technologies. “It is also, in gen-eral,more permissive, encouragesmixeduses where appropriate and equal oppor-
tunities.”The scheme was subject to various
meetings and public participation proc-esses during the planning stages. “Vari-ousmedia releases, placement of notices,advertisements in the community pressand information sessions happened inthis period to inform, warn and prepareindustry stakeholders and the public ofthe implementation date of the CTZS,”Walters says.However, the concerned organisation
flagged various aspects of the scheme, in-cluding the possibility of a “radicalchange in the character of the city andundermining its sustainability” in thepress release.The press release reads: “Nominimum
erf size has been set. This paves the wayfor cramped urbanisation, not just wisedensification. It could also herald a fieldday for developers focused on maximis-ing rental income and speculative subdi-vision.”It also highlighted the removal of serv-
ice industrial zoning, which has nowbeen replaced by light industrial zoning,mixed-use zones where there are few re-strictions on a range of activities andamenity zoning being replacedwith com-munity zoning as some of the organisa-tion’s concerns.The City also only has to advertise de-
partures if, in the opinion of City Manag-er Achmat Ebrahim, it will adversely af-fect anyone,while cellphonemasts are al-lowed anywhere.However, City officials met with repre-
sentatives of the two organisations onThursday 7 March. “It was a very con-structivemeetingwhere anumber of con-cerns where clarified, misconceptionsaddressed and future engagements dis-cussed,” Walters says.V Send any queries to [email protected].
CHAIRPERSON: BOWS OUT
Cafda power struggleends in resignationLIAM MOSES
THE Cafda executiveboard leadershipstruggle seems to have
come to an end after sus-pended chairperson FrankFredericks resigned fromthe board and the NGO.Fredericks was elected
chairperson of the board atCafda’s annual meeting inSeptember.Hewas suspend-ed just two months later, inDecember, after allegationswere levelled at him by fel-low board members.A three-person committee was subse-
quently elected from candidates suggestedby board members to investigate the claimsand present their finding to Cafda.Fredericks was to appear before the board
on Wednesday 6 March after the committeepresented its findings, but instead resignedwith immediate effect that day.He says it has become impossible to work
for Cafdawhile vice- and acting chairpersonKevin Southgate was on the board. “It hasbecome untenable with people ... like ...Kevin Southgate and company. They haveno respect for governance,” says Fredericks.“They have no idea how institutions like
Cafda should be run. If you are informed youare in conflict with the constitution, thenyou address it. These people are only thereto be in a position for power and (for) person-al agendas. They are not there to supply aservice to the community.”He says he was accused of “misrepresent-
ing” the organisation anddenies any wrongdoing dur-ing his short tenure.Fredericks has also fired
several parting shots at theboard, accusing the boardand senior employees ofnepotism, being power hun-gry, contradicting the or-ganisation’s constitution,“undermining” his leader-ship and “rigging” the exec-utive board election.Some of these claimswere
included in a letter he sentto the City of Cape Town’s
Department of Social Ser-vices, one of Caf-da’s funders. The department subsequentlyinstituted an investigation, but no evidencewas discovered.Fredericks also claimed that, due to his
resignation and the resignation of two othermembers, the board would need to hold an-other election as the board needed to haveat least eight members to operate.Southgate, however, denies this and says
the board has since filled the vacancies.“The constitution is very clear that the
board has the power to co-opt. It’s not truethat the board is less than eight (members).The constitution gives the board powers tofill the vacancieswhichhave arisen and thatis what we are doing now.”Southgate refused to list the allegations
which resulted in Fredericks’ suspensionand the findings of the committee, saying itwould be “grossly unfair” because Freder-icks did not appear before the board tomakea representation.

Home owner helps to nab suspectTINA BURGER
CRIMINALS entering propertiesthrough windows is nothing new forGrassy Park residents.
But one such home owner turned the ta-bles on a suspect when he pursued himdown the street.
In the early hours of Friday 8 MarchMichael Basson (59) and his wife Sylvia (63)were asleep in their Lake Road home whenthey were awoken by the sound of glassbreaking in their living room.
Sylvia says: “My husband heard a noisein the lounge.”
He found a man lurking behind their liv-ing room curtain.
Without the benefit of light, Michaelstumbled upon the suspect. Taken by sur-prise, the intruder climbed back out of thebroken window and fled.
Michael alerted his wife and they openedthe gates where they keep their dogs. Bark-ing vigorously, the canines rushed to thewall which fences off the yard.
Michael searched his yard and found thesuspect, of about 17 years old, hiding behindthe wall.
He pursued the suspect who ran up LakeRoad and “whistled to a nearby friend toopen a door to a house nearby”.
“This is very suspicious, it seems likethey are residents in the area,” adds Sylvia.
She contacted the Grassy Park Police Sta-tion and within 30 minutes three officers ar-rived – one of which was in plain clothes– at the Basson house.
“The police did not go around to the yardand only looked at the broken window,” shesays.
Michael followed the police to the nearbyhouse where the suspect was hiding.
However, Sylvia says the police officers
had closed the door of the house the was hid-ing.
“My husband asked to be allowed into thehouse to talk to the suspect,” she says, “butthe door was pushed closed so that he wasnot able to hear what was being said.”
Sylvia continues: “It seemed like the po-lice were covering something up and wereadamant that we stay out of their business.”
She says it “seemed as if the police knewthe suspect and was making it out as if noth-ing had really happened”.
The police told Michael that there “is notenough evidence to make a case,” she says.
According to Sylvia “the police made usfeel like we are the criminals because theysaid we do not have sufficient evidence. Butthe guy was in our living room!”
She says broken glass, with fingerprints,were found in the garden. The suspect hadbroken the lower window pane to enter theBasson house.
At 06:00 Michael went to the Grassy ParkPolice Station to lay a charge.
Warrant Officer Wynita Kleinsmith,spokesperson of the Grassy Park Police Sta-tion, says: “The case has been investigatedand the outcome will be communicatedwith Basson.”
Kleinsmith adds that “the suspect was ar-rested and he appeared in court on Monday11 March”.
Michael, meanwhile, expressed disap-pointment at the way in which the GrassyPark police handled the matter initially.
“We feel very disappointed, because weused to believe that the police were thereto protect us, but we can no longer believethat.
“If felt like they did not want us to crossthem, even though we have done nothingwrong. The suspect walks around freelylike he has done nothing wrong.”

PELICAN PARK: NEW HALL
Constructionkicks offTINA BURGER
THEIR dream of having their own schoolhall is coming true for teachers and pu-pils of Pelican Park Primary School.
Construction of the new school hall has al-ready begun.The project, which started off as a mere
dream in 2009, has finally started takingshape in 2010 when a proposal was made tothe Department of Education as part of aWork Place Pilot Project.In former years, pupils and the community
wanting to use a hall had to travel by bus tovenues outside Pelican Park.The need for a school hall was, therefore,
idenfitied. To this end, the school communi-cated their dream of having a hall to Arch-wayFoundation, anNGO,andalso to the edu-cation department.With departmental approval, the school
had to raise R200 000 towards the R3.6m costof the project.Principal VasinthaMoonsamy immediate-
ly launched fundraising projects to reach thefinancial goal.Moonsamy says it was no easy task raising
the funds as the school is situated “in a com-munity that is not affluent”.
She adds that in previous years fundsraised for the upkeep of the school was “usedto offset school fees”.Moonsamy adds “the school is very grate-
ful for the opportunity of upliftment andposi-tive contributions through the community”.She explains that the school is “doing con-
sistently well, but will need support from thecommunity to keep the hall in a prime condi-tion.”Kulsum Roomaney, an administrator at
the school, says “the Department of Educa-tion was adamant that the hall not be a whiteelephant, but be used and enjoyed by the en-tire community”.Upon completion of the construction of the
hall, some of the activities planned includeschool assemblies and concerts, as well as in-door sport events.It is envisaged the hall will also be made
available for social and community func-tions, including weddings, social upliftmentsessions, neighbourhood watch meetingsand performances by artists and musicians.The project is expected to be completed by
the end of May.Plans are afoot to extend an invitation to
the community for the official opening of thehall, says Moonsamy.

Meeting a laughing matterTINA BURGER
THE Grassy Park police have had tofield questions totally unrelated to polic-ing at the Community Policing Forum(CPF) meeting last week.Some residents voiced their opinion
that the questions were “totally ridicu-lous”, with some laughing at the ques-tions from the floor at the meeting onTuesday 12 March.Grassy Park Station Commander
Colonel Fana Dlamini faced a barrage ofquestions unrelated to his work.One resident wanted to know: “Why
are there somany northern Chinese res-idents selling the same products at thesame prices?”Other residents sniggered at the ques-
tion, but Dlamini responded that thequestion did not relate to his work.A query by the same resident ven-
tured beyond the country’s borders.“What is happening to our tactical forc-es who are being sent into Mozam-bique?”ParkwoodEstate resident EleanorAb-
rahams laughed and said: “What dothese questions have to do with GrassyPark related incidents?”Smiling politely, Dlamini replied:
“Unfortunately I cannot answer that(question) because it falls out of my ju-risdiction.”
In fielding questions related to hiswork, Dlamini confirmed that “peopledo not respect the law because it is notbeing enforced”.More serious issues were brought to
the fore, including drug-related prob-lems.Grassy ParkCPF chairpersonYassien
Meyer also raised the issue of gamblingin residential areas, as well as illegaldumping.“We have been waiting for the police
to respond to some of our queries (relat-ed to gambling and dumping) since Sun-day 6 January.”Residents also highlighted problems
related to children who beg at the inter-sections on Prince George Drive.Other complaints included under-
aged children involved in vehicle win-dows being smashed during smash-and-grab incidents.Metro Police superintendent Selvyn
Roberts says: “In some instances whenchildren do not receive money frommo-torists, they throw stones at vehicles.”Dlamini assured residents that all
their queries would be attended to.Knight Neighbourhood Watch chair-
person Chris Juris applauds the GrassyPark police, saying: “We usually foundit difficult to (reach) the police, but nowwe find they are always there to assistus.”

Sassa re-registrationTASMIN CUPIDO
CONFUSION about where Statepensioners can collect theirmonthly payout has surfaced.This comes after the South Af-
rican Social Security Agency(Sassa) adopted and introducedthe biometric- based system forall social grants in February.The system aims to ensure that
the right grant is paid to the rightindividual at the right time andplace. It’s immediate plan is toeradicate fraud and corruption.It will also allow beneficiaries
to use their Sassa branded cardanywhere in the country.But People’s Post received a
number of frantic calls fromreaders, who claim the new sys-tem was “time consuming” and“dangerous”.One such reader, Beatrice de
Wett (78) from Diep River, tells ofher experience at a local super-market. “I was not there to drawmy monthly pension – I will onlyhave to do so in April, but I washorrified and shocked when Isaw what was happening,” shesays.“When I arrived at the super-
market, the place was verycrowded. I thought the peoplewere rioting, but soon realisedthey were there to draw theirpensions.”She describes the atmosphere
as “absolute chaos”, as pension-ers queued in long lines insideand outside the store. “They allhad to stand; there was no placefor them to sit. Some of the peoplewere standing with walkingsticks, visibly uncomfortable,”De Wett says.“I also found out that they had
been standing there for a verylong time – some of them hadbeen there for up to four hours.And there are no ablution facili-ties for them to use.”De Wett claims she was in-
formed that the “chaos” was thesame the previous day, withthree of the pensioners havingbeen transported to hospital formedical treatment after they hadfainted while waiting in line.
“The staff at the supermarket al-so told the people that they hadto return the next day, becausethere was no more money,” shesays.“I cannot understand why Sas-
sa changed the process of draw-ing your pension. Why must wego to supermarket? It is heart-breaking and sad to see the pen-sioners suffer this way.”However, regional Sassa
spokesperson Shivani Wahabsays supermarkets Pick n Payand Shoprite are not the onlyplaces pensioners can draw theirmonthly grants.“The beneficiary has the op-
tion of accessing their socialgrant at aSassapaypoint, vendoror bank of their choice. With ap-proved vendors, Shoprite andPick n Pay, there is no fee appli-cable for a beneficiary to accesstheir social grant,” Wahab says.“However, should a beneficiaryopt to access their social grant ata bank, the regular bank chargeswillbe applicable.”The new system requires all
beneficiaries to re-register, notre-apply, for their social grants.The registration process com-menced in November. “The re-registration process entailsabout 15million social grant re-
cipients enrolling onto the sys-tem using biometric tools suchelectronic fingerprinting to veri-fy their identities,” Wahab says.“Beneficiaries will then be is-
sued with a smartcard that willallow the flexibility of accessingsocial grants anywhere in thecountry.”The re-registration process is
expected to be complete on Sun-day 31 March.Sassawill update all the details
and capture an electronic scan offingerprints of the beneficiary atthe last payout at the “old paypoint”. Beneficiaries need to takealong their identity document,Sassa branded master card, con-tact details and the name andcontact details of a next of kin.V For more information phone (021) 4690206 or 0800 601 011.
GRANDMA: GOES TO SCHOOL
Never too late for ABCsTINA BURGER
COMPLETING 12 years of ed-ucation is hard work, but fora 65-year-old grandmother
from Grassy Park, completingGrade 1 is a milestone she aimsto achieve this year.Veronica Myburgh is in the
process of completing her Grade1 year at Kannemeyer PrimarySchool and aims to continue untilshe reaches Grade 4.She has never read a book in
her life, nor has she been able tohelp her children with theirhomework when they wereyoung.“I had no education becausemy
mother keptme out of school. Shewanted me to look after myyounger sister. Even the teachersasked me why I was not in schoolall the time, and I cried in classbecause Iwasnot at the same levelas those who attended class everyday,” Myburgh says.She also never got her driver’s
license. “In earlier (years) it wasnot necessary for a woman to geta driver’s license, so I never com-pleted any exams or tests.”Myburgh was a domestic work-
er since the age of 14. “I used toeatwith the family at their dinnertable. They taught me confirma-tion and bought me clothes. StillI was not able to read or write.”She would walk her grandchil-
dren to Kannemeyer Primaryeach morning. Myburgh spoke to
a parent about the fact that shewas unable to learn to read orwrite.Kannemeyer Primary Grade 1
teacher Zuconie Cupido over-heard Myburgh’s conversationand approached her. “I told her Iwill teach her the alphabet andhow to spell and write her name.She is slowly getting there,” saysCupido.Myburgh has already mastered
the alphabet and how to spell dif-ferent words.For the past two years, she has
also been assisting some of the pu-pils in the class.“These pupils are wonderful to
work with,” Myburgh says. “I
used to sit at home not having an-ything to do. Now I have a pur-pose. I can helpmy grandchildrenand I have become part of some-thing bigger.”She is proud that she is learning
how to read and write.“I still struggle sometimes, but
am able to write my own nameand I am helping others.”The granny has also inspired
her children to academic achieve-ments.Her eldest son,Walter (37), com-
pleted matric in 2012 at SteenbergHigh School.And her youngest daughter, Al-
exa (31), is pursuing the equiva-lent of her matric certificate.

NPC: WP Softballsets record straightLIAM MOSES
THE decision by the provincial Softball Fed-eration to not participate in Softball SouthAfrica’s (SSA) 2013 National ProvincialChampionships (NPC) stands.
The WP Softball Federation (WPSF) wasset to review the decision at a meeting onTuesday 12 March, but no vote was taken as18 clubs are required to formaquorum.Only12 clubs turned up.
TheWPSF general council, which is madeup of chairpersons of all the affiliated clubs,initially voted against participating in thetournament at a meeting on Tuesday 5 Feb-ruary.
Following complaints from several dis-gruntled players at that meeting, it was de-cided to review the decision.
Nazeem Dulvie, chairperson of WestridgeYankees Softball and Baseball Club, waspresent at all three meetings.
Upon the mandate of the club, Dulvie toldPeople’s Post he was set to vote in favour ofparticipating in the tournament to be hostedin Kempton Park from Thursday 21 to Sun-day 24 March.
In a previous report Dulvie was quoted assaying the WPSF executive board had toldthe general council that the NPC was “notsanctioned” at the first meeting (“WP Soft-ball to review tournament participation”,People’s Post, Tuesday 12 March).
Recanting his earlier statement, Dulvienow says his initial quote was not true, ashe had meant to say the chairpersons of theclubs thought the tournament was not sanc-tioned.
Dulvie says they were told that “the NPCis going to be held in Gauteng”. Cape Town
had also put in a bid to host theNPC, he says.Dulvie says a proposal from “St Martins
Softball Club delegates was not go to theNPC. Thatwas seconded by the FalconsNor-mies chairperson.”
A vote by the chairpersons made the deci-sion final.
The WPSF says comments by formerWPSFpresident andCEONooreNacerodienwere “inaccurate” as he was not present atthe meeting of Tuesday 5 February. Nacero-dien’s presence at thismeetingwasnot clari-fied to this newspaper.
He, however, maintains that he was, infact, present at a meeting on Tuesday 5March, at which “it came to light that thedecision on Tuesday 5 February was basedon what they (the club chairpersons) weretold by the executive committee”.
“On Tuesday 5 March they had a problemwith the NPC and they had a problem withthe compilation of the SSA interim commit-tee. (WPSF transformation officer) ThelmaAchilles and (WPSF vice-president) IvorLovell got up to object to some of the peoplebeing on the interim committee.
“All the chairpersons who spoke to me af-terwards said they were confused. Theybased it (the Tuesday 5 February decision)on what the executive committee said.”
In an email to People’s Post, WPSF chair-person DenisePaulsen says 12 chairpersonsturned up at the most recent meeting.
Paulsen says while there was no quorumfor it to be an official meeting, contrary toNacerodien’s comments, “all 12 chairper-sons present conferred that at no time wasit intimated from ‘the front’ that (the) NPCwas not valid or has a problem with the in-terim committee of SSA.”
