Taxis caught in the actLUZUKO ZINI
THE City of Cape Town is putting thebrakes on illegal taxis operating in theHeathfield area after two taxis were im-pounded.
Residents say there are about six taxis op-erating illegally in the area and traffic offic-ers have managed to impound two of them inthe last month.
It’s alleged that taxis have been operatingillegally in the Heathfield area since 2010(“Taxi trouble in Heathfield”, People’s Post,16 November 2010 ).
Residents havebeen complaining about thetaxis, especially thoseoperatingatHeathfield
train station.A resident, who wishes to remain anony-
mous, says the taxis cause chaos.“The taxis would block traffic by parking
anywhere they want. In some instances, thedrivers would fight with each other,” hefumes.
JP Smith, Mayoral Committee Member forSafety and Security says the two taxis wereseized after traffic officials were given a taskto patrol the area.
“The taxiswould flee once they sawa trafficvehicle and traffic officers decided that theywill use unmarked vehicles and that’s whentheymanaged to impound the taxis,” he says.
Ward councillor Jan Burger says the prob-lem has been going on for a while.
“Residents have been complaining for awhile now. I am glad the officials have donesomething because the residents were nothappy. There is no rank in the area and yetthese taxis were operating there,” he says.
“We also need people who canwatch the ar-ea regularly because the taxis would comeback once the traffic officers are gone. Thetaxis are mostly around during the peakhours. I hope the taxi drivers and associa-tions linked will take the impounding of thetwo taxis as a warning,” he says.

Keeping up withKeepingKeeping upup withwiththe Eid-dashiansthethe Eid-dashiansEid-dashiansDear reader,
Occasions such asChristmasand Eid are renowned for up-holding traditions and cus-toms. On Sunday, South Afri-cans joined 1.5 billionMuslimsaround the world in celebrat-ing Eid-ul-Fitr, the festival ofcharity signalling the end ofthe holy month of Ramadan.Inaddition toprayers, spend-
ing time with family andfriends and enjoying tradition-al Eid dishes such as leg oflamb, breyani and trifle, itwas a time to cele-brate, unite and give thanks for our manyblessings.Also, to forgive. Generosity prevails dur-
ing this time, with “Labarang boxes” –equivalent of aChristmas box – given to par-ents and children and community.When my five siblings and I were laaities,
we would traipse District 6, Drydocks andWalmerEstate onEid, returninghomeat theend of the day with R2 – made up of half, oneand two cents.Money had a lot more value then. You
could get three sweets for half cent at MrGoodman’s, our favourite sweet and comicbook shop in Hanover Street. Today howev-er, with inflation as it is and the deprecia-tion of our currency, it is common for chil-dren to amass hundreds of rands on Eid.But not everything about tradition, as in-
terpreted by some families, leaves warmfuzzy feelings.In the 70s and 80s, children would spend
Eid playing games on granny’s stoep, or
gather in a room while theaunts and uncles sit in thelounge around a decadent teatable.My gran’s house in Raven-
scraig Road, Walmer Estate,would hum with happiness,laughter, chatter – and the in-variable family spat that sig-nalled the end of another “tra-ditional” Abrahams Eid, andtime for everyone to say theirperhaps not-so-fond good-byes.Despite best intent and val-
ue extracted fromevents at gran’s house,mysiblings and I have also had a few “too tradi-tional” Eids that saw among others, a deli-cate cushion being flung, ire at a sibling no-torious for visiting our parents’ house toolate and inability to reach consensus as atwhose house to end the day. Perhaps tech-nologyholds the answer to altering traditionas our family observes it. OnEid, during vis-its, most youngsters and adults spent suffi-cient quality time with their cellphones,sending greetings to others and keeping con-tact. It’s more efficient and eco-friendly tosend electronic greeting cards – and poten-tially less volatile.Another solutionmay be to revert to mak-
ing things; clothes for ourselves and ourchildren, baking pastries fromscratch as op-posed to buying almost everything nowa-days. Perhapswe aren’t tired enough onEid,becausewe’ve bought the lekker tartlets andsteak pies once traditionally lovingly madeby our mothers and grandmothers.Nice thought in theory, but nah... Go well!

Cop shop investigatedALLEGATIONS of poor service by theGrassy Park police has resulted in an in-vestigation by the provincial police man-agement.
Complaints to People’s Post included al-leged slow response times and failure by po-lice to attend to crime scenes (“We call, butcops don’t come”, People’s Post, 7 August).OnWednesday evening, aGrassyPark resi-
dent called a local radio station detailing her
experience.According to the station commander, Colo-
nel Adrian Saulse, the reason for the allegedtardy service is a shortage of police vans.However, deputy provincial commissioner
Major General Sharon Jephta called into the
radio station denying the lack of police vans.She further undertook to investigate themat-ter.Provincial police spokesperson Lieutenant
Colonel Andre Traut says an invesigation isbeing done. “The matter is receiving our ur-
gent attention. The complainant has alreadybeen interviewed, butunfortunately theproc-ess has been delayed by Eid. Once we havereceived the telephone records of the com-plainant, we can finalise this,” he says.Traut also urged the public to continue re-
porting police complacency.“We value the service we give to the public
and always want to improve. We also encou-rage the public to bring unsatisfactory ser-vice under our attention.

Concern: missing street namesConcern: missing street namesLUZUKO ZINI
Retreat – where the streets have nonames. Well, some of them.
In some instances, the names are writtenon the kerb and this can cause problems forthose who don’t know the area.RebestNgulube, a garageworker inRetreat
Road says that on many occasions motoristsstop and ask for directions.“I have seen many people coming here to
ask for certain streets. Most of the times Idon’t know the street they looking for,” hesays.“Recently people have been coming here to
ask for directions to the police station or clin-ic. I knowwhere the places are but the namesof the streets I don’t know.”Francis Penn, a street vendor in Retreat
Road, says he gets lost at times.“I come here during the weekend to sell
bags, belts and chips. I do not know the streetnames and I once got lost when I wasmeetinga friend in 12th Avenue,” he says.“Many people come passing by asking for
directions to a particular street and I refer tothem to a person from the area.”Ward 72 councillor Jan Burger confirms he
is aware of the problem.“This problem is that people remove the
names from the poles and go sell them at the
scrapyard,” he says.Burger also claims Retreat is not the only
area affected.“In places like Heathfield and Southfield,
there is a similar problem,” he says.Retreat resident Shane Adams says this
has been causing problems to people whowant to visit him.“I have friends and familywhoarenot from
the area. I have to go meet them at one of thegarages because they don’t know the streets,”he says.“For us who have been living here all our
lives it’s easy because we already know thestreet names.”According toBurger thereareplans tohave
the missing street names replaced.“I can confirm that the street names will
be up again. I am aware that this is causingproblems for motorists and the public in gen-eral,” he says.“The names of the streets being written at
the bottom of the road is not ideal, especiallyat night. Everyone wants to see the street’sname when they driving or walking insteadof searching for it.”

SAFE RETURN: This fuzzy male otter caused quite a stir in Sea Point last Wednesday when he had the SPCA’s Wildlife Unit,local policemen and the public chasing to catch him. The displaced Cape Clawless Otter was eventually caught, and althoughdistressed at the commotion, was unharmed and taken to the SPCA’s shortterm Wildlife Care Facility in Grassy Park. Theotter will be released at a suitable location soon. According to SPCA inspector Brett Glasby, six displaced otters have beenrescued across the city during the past year. The SPCA warns the public to avoid trying to catch injured and distressed wildlife,as it may cause the animal to panic and put it at risk of going into stressinduced shock.

Al-Noor cleared by MJCTAURIQ HASSEN
THE Al-Noor Child and YouthCare Centre had their collectionletters re-instated after it waswithdrawn due to an investiga-tion by the Muslim Judicial Coun-cil.
Collection letters are issued by theMJC to authorise fundraising.After allegations of a scam resur-
faced, the MJC provisionally with-drew the letters last month.However, the allegations against
the Woodstock facility were ruled tobe “untrue”, following an intense in-vestigation into the matter by theMJC’s department of mediation andarbitration.Sheikh Ismail Beg, a qualified at-
torney, headed the investigation andrevealed that the allegations againstthe home was “baseless and couldnot be proven”.
“We have in our possession evi-dence that discredits the allega-tions,” Beg says.Rumours around the home being
used as a scam quickly spreadthrough the community,with emailsbouncing around highlighting thehome’s alleged illegal activities(“Centre rallies after scandal”, Peo-ple’s Post, 31 July).People’s Post was once again in-
formed through an email from [email protected], that thehome was continuing to fleece do-nors.Beg confirms that investigations
proved that the defamatory emailswere all created by one person.He says: “This person is on a mis-
sion to destroy the name of Al-Noor,but we can now clarify that theemails being sent around are nottrue.”Prior to the investigation, theMJC
immediately withdrew the collec-
tion letter authorising fundraisingfor the home.“We immediately established a
commissionof inquiry to investigatethe allegations,” Beg says.Al-Noor director, Amina Fonguh
Madien, has seen the effects of thesmear campaign.She says donations to the home
has come to a grinding halt.“This bad news has really affected
us this past month and I don’t seewhy the children haveto suffer. Ifpeople have a problem, they canrather take it out onme, but leave thechildren out of it,” she says.Madien is overjoyed at the MJC’s
verdict, explaining that the homecan now focus on “restructuring”their image.“This was a traumatising experi-
ence for everybody here at the home.I really hope things can return tonormal and these ugly rumours canstop,” she says.

match a growing need, this country is puntedon the South African government website as“a world leader for transplants”.This accolade is not undeserved.On3December 1967,DrChristiaanBarnard
performed the world’s first heart transplantafter the family ofDeniseDarvall donated herheart to Louis Washkansky.Darvall suffered severe brain damage in a
car accident and Washkansky was sufferingof gross heart failure and in desperate needof a transplant. It took a dedicated team ninehours to perform the operation.Succumbing to pneumonia, Washkansky
only lived for 18 days after the operation.The theatre where this transplant was per-
formed has been turned into a museum inhonour of these pioneers of medicine, and toDarvall and Washkansky.In a first for the African continent, Durban
will next year host the World TransplantGames.Competitors from some 55 countries are ex-
pected to compete inwhat is the single biggestorgan donor awareness event on the planet.This, in itself, is a celebration of the human
spirit. Their tenacity and strength of charac-ter bear testimony to true grit. The Gamesshould bring togetherup to 1 500 participants.Since its 1978 creation, the World Trans-
plant Games Federation has sought to createincreased awareness of the need to donate or-gans and to promote the success of organtransplant through sport across the world.Barnard’s skill is now history, but the
shortage of adequate donors is aworrying fac-tor. The first heart transplant was gift to theworld of medicine.The selflessness of organ donors is a gift to
any other human on the face of this earth.That is the first step to being commendable.
There is no higher accolade or honour.
A specialmessageto womenMY MOTHER turned 60 onThursday 9 August whichcoincides with Women’sDay.We, her children (four
daughters and one son), tookher for lunch and supper.She did not want us to
make too much of a fuss.Each one of us gave her in-
dividual gifts, which includ-ed flowers (her favourite), a60th key and vouchers.She was happy having us
all together, but also sad atthe same time as my dad isno longer with us.He passed on four months
ago.My mother is an extraor-
dinary woman, strong, inde-pendent, hardworking andalways there for her chil-dren.Iwould like to take this op-
portunity to let her knowweall love her immensely.And we do appreciate eve-
rything she has done for us,is still doing and will contin-ue doing.I also want to say to all
women that we are strongand if you strike us youstrike a rock.Happy Women’s Month.TANYAGrassy Park
Weigh up all electricity usageI COMPLETELY agree with Tony Robinson.However, like others who have comment-
ed on this aspect of Eskom’s general plot lossbefore, he misses one important point: whenpeople go home fromwork to push up domes-tic consumption they are no longer usingpower at their place of work so there has tobe a drop in business consumption.While manual labourers use little or no
electricity during the day this must largelybe offset by the power used by large compa-nies operating large and multiple machines.To take a small but everyday example, just
walk in to your local tyre fitment depot
where there are car lifts, compressors andother machinery at work all day. When theteam knocks off for the day all these are nolonger in use, and no longer drawing fromEskom’s power supply. A while later thesesame workers are at home and need to beable to tap into the electrical supply for thosethings most of us do at the end of the day.With Eskom’s recent track record it would
not surprise me if they see domestic andbusiness use as separate issues and theydon’t see the reduction of one being offsetagainst a rise in the other.M A ROBINSON
Eskom: spread working hoursI WANT to respond to Tony Robinson’s com-ments (“No light bulb moment”, People’sPost) about Eskom’s problem and his totaldissing of the idea of spreading the workinghours.
. Spreading of work hours: Your outrightdismissal was probably prompted by dead-line pressure. It has many positive aspects,besides the spread of the peak energy load.Itwould also reduce congestion on the roads,and ease up the pressure on the public trans-port system.We have to keep our grids in readiness for
the couple of hours of peakdemand eachday,
instead of finding ways to ease out the needfor such high peaks. Not at all a bad idea toinvestigate.So please give this concept more thought
than you have granted it.. Gas: Your suggestion that gas would be
the solution to Eskom’s woes, even suggest-ing that “gas is a permanent solution” isquite short-sighted.How can gas be a permanent solution
when it is a non-renewable resource?It, too, will run out and may already be
running low.JULIAN GORDON

USE YOUR HEAD: Jamestown United player Jesse van der Bergh wins a header againstHappy Gcwa of Great Commission United during an under17 leaguematch at the TurfhallSports Complex in Athlone on Saturday. Jamestown, from Athlone, beat the Heideveldside 20.
THE future of a suspended national tabletennis coach has been left hanging in thebalance after mediated crisis talks withWestern Province Table Tennis failed tosolve a long running dispute.
Greg Naik, a former Western Province,Boland and national table tennis coach wassuspended in July for “bringing the game in-to disrepute” after the provincial body filedcharges against him.
Naik, who is also chairperson and founderof Boundary Table Tennis Club in Bonte-huewel, was subsequently banned from thegame for two years, but insists that the banis illegal and contravenes the WP Table Ten-nis constitution.
He responded by hiring lawyers and ap-
proaching the Western Province Sport Coun-cil (WPSC) and Western Province Depart-ment of Cultural Affairs and Sport (DCAS) forhelp (“Keeping mum on table tennis coach”,People’s Post, 14 August).
Last Tuesday, Naik met with Kelvin Smith,vice-chairperson and acting chairperson ofWP Table Tennis; Bennett Bailey, the deputydirector of client and scientific support atDCAS; Dave Roberts, chairperson of theWestern Province Council of Sport, and sev-eral other officials.
Bailey says no solution was found in themeeting because neither party was willing tobudge on their stance. “It’s like a negotiation,there is give and take. But if no-one wants togive and everyone wants to take then we arenot going to move,” says Bailey.
“The club didn’t move, because they wereof the opinion that Mr Naik did nothing
wrong and they need him at the club, becausethey rely heavily on him. The executive com-mittee (of WP Table Tennis) felt that theyneed to carry out the decision of the generalcouncil.”
Bailey says WPSC and DCAS have now dis-engaged themselves from the issue and willplay no further role for the immediate future.
Although no solution or decision wasreached in the meeting, Smith says he is hap-py with the result.
“They looked at our constitution and ourdisciplinary procedures. They looked verycritically at the steps that we followed andthey were happy that we followed all of theprocedures as per the constitution,” saysSmith.
“WP are happy with the meeting and we arevindicated by the comments of DCAS. We fol-lowed procedure to the letter. DCAS has prov-
en that we have followed everything correct-ly. So the ball is now in Mr Naik’s court.”
Naik, however, says the meeting is just thefirst part of an ongoing process.
“After the meeting, WP are spreading therumour that they are upholding the suspen-sion. What I understood was that the SportsCouncil wants call a meeting with me,” saysNaik.
“They said this is just the first part of theprocess. The next part will still happen. Theydidn’t uphold the suspension. They just saidthat we are closing the meeting until furthernotice.”
The former SA coach will now approach theWestern Cape Sport Arbitration Forum, as hewas advised to do at the meeting. UnlikeDCAS and WPSC, the Forum does have theauthority to either overturn or uphold Naik’sban.

LIAM MOSES
AS the opening rounds of theEngen Knockout Challengekicks tomorrow, the tourna-ment has already captured theattention of talent scoutsaround the country.
Since its inception in 2003 thepopular tournament has servedas a platform for hundreds ofplayers under the age of 17 toprove they have what it takes toprogress to the professionalranks of South African football.The current crop of talented
Cape Town youngsters will havetheir opportunity to prove them-selves when the tournament fi-nals take place in September and,according to tournament direc-tor Gilbert Kruger, they will bewatched by several representa-tives from professional teams.“I don’t want to put pressure on
players by giving their names,but if I look at some of the playersthere seems to be a nice crop com-ing throughwho could be noticedby the professional clubs,” saysKruger.“I have already been inundated
with requests from scouts and
professional clubs who are ask-ing for accreditation to come tothe tournament, because theyknow this is the area where theycould possibly find players.”The Challenge has already as-
sisted some of Cape Town andSouth Africa’s most talentedplayers on theirway toupper ech-elons of football.Former Ajax Cape Town and
current Supersport United mid-fielder George Maluleka, AjaxAmsterdam and Bafana Bafanaattacker Thulani Serero and San-tos players Tasleem Paulse andZairon van Beulen all made aname for themselves at the Chal-lenge.Besides acting as proving
ground for local talent, it also as-sists in developing young CapeTown footballers in other ways.Each one of the 16 teams that
will compete in the finals in Sep-tember will receive trainingequipment or a cash prize, re-gardless ofwhere they finish, andall the teams play the sameamount of games.The format of the competition
means the teams play against thestrongest competition availablelocally.
“Once you play against the lastsixteen teams you are playingagainst the best teams in CapeTown. You obviously have to bea bit better, and a bit more organ-ised,” says Kruger.“It gives players the opportuni-
ty to play against teams such asAjax and Vasco, who they don’tusually get to play.“Here you are going to play
against the best 16 teams in theregion, so you are already play-ing at a higher level compared toplaying your normal LFA game.”This week 96 teams will start
their journey to the finals of thecompetition,when they faceoff inthe opening rounds of the tourna-ment.The first matches were set to
take place over weekends, butwaterlogged pitches meant thatthe games could not take place.Unlike similar youth tourna-
ments all teams must qualify forthe finals of the competition andthe participating sides rangefrom small, newly establishedteams to junior teams from pro-fessional clubs and academies.

Milano awaits Rooikrans verdictMilano awaits Rooikrans verdictLIAM MOSES
NEWLY PROMOTED NationalFirst Division (NDF) sideMilanoUnited are sweating the outcomeof a meeting which will deter-minewhether theycanplay theirhome games at Rooikrans SportsComplex.
The Grassy Park-based side haveplayed at the field since their forma-tion in 1986, but may now be forcedto move away if other clubs basedat field object to it being used forprofessional football.
The club’s officials will meet withrepresentatives from the othersporting codes which are played atthe field, such as baseball and crick-et, tomorrow to work out a solution.
Nasief Brenner, Milano’s owner,says moving the club away wouldhurt the team and its passionatesupporters.
“We are here for over 20 years; it’sour home. I don’t think it would befair to the community to move us.We are using local players fromGrassy Park and Lavender Hill,”says Brenner.
“Also to take it away from thesupporters would be unfair. Thesupporters come from a disadvan-taged background, so to ask them totravel to Philippi or Wynberg is aburden on them.”
Milano were promoted after win-ning the Western Cape VodacomLeague and then finishing secondthe national promotion playoffs inPolokwane in July.
Brenner adds that the team needscommunity support for it to contin-ue its climb up the South Africanfootball ladder. “We need to playhere for our community. Like withChippa United, they did great inPhilippi because they were commu-
nity based. You are nothing withoutyour community, just another indi-vidual. We are Milano from GrassyPark. Not Milano from Wynberg orPhilippi.”
Milano have already received thego-ahead from the league, but arestill in consultation with the City ofCape Town to use Rooikrans. The fi-nal decision will be made if they re-ceive the permission of the otherclubs at Rooikrans.
Should the team stay at in GrassyPark, they will need to upgrade thefacility by adding showers andmaking other minor changes beforethe NDF conducts a final inspectionof the field at the end of the month.
Tandeka Gqada, Mayoral Com-mittee member for CommunityServices, says the City is concernedthat Milano’s request for exclusiveuse of the A-field and the hall atRooikrans, every second week,would be unfair to other codes us-ing the facility.
“This restricts the use of the hallby the broader community for func-tions and other recreational activi-ties. As this is a community facilitywe would be hard-pressed to defendone club using this hall and field onan exclusive basis every secondweek,” says Gqada.
“Secondly they requested facili-ties which are currently being usedas a first aid room and drug testingcubicle by the baseball and dartscodes, to be converted into a refe-ree’s room. In addition to all theserequirements they also require atunnel, which the facility does nothave.”
Brenner says Milano will beforced to move to the Wynberg Mili-tary base, a venue where other Pre-mier Soccer League and NDF sideshave played in the past, should theother sporting codes vote against
their stay. The City hassuggested that Milano useeither Philippi, Vy-giekraal or Athlone stadi-um for their games.
