We [turned down] their proposal.” Jonkers says they next heard about Envi- roworks when the company “came to our church and [did] an inspection and now the company is distributing flyers for the com- munity to know about their intentions”. Ward councillor Leslie Isaacs says that the residents need to wait for the outcomes of the assessment. “If they want to erect a mast then they need to ensure that their assessment is done and positively indicates that it is safe to erect a mast,” he says. “I have received calls from concerned res- idents demanding answers about these masts,” he says. “But we will only be able to assist residents when we have a better un- derstanding about what these masts do and what the negative and positive aspects are of it being erected in our communities.” A similar mast is also proposed for the Lakeview Community Church on the cor- ners of Cowell Way and Concert Boulevard in Retreat. Mark Day, a senior environmental con- sultant at Enviroworks, adds that the pur- pose of the mast will be to transmit and re- ceive data to cellphone users. “Given the increase in usership of cell- phones, the number of cell masts in urban spaces need to increases to capacitate growth. “Despite often mixed feelings towards the presence of cellular base stations in an ur- ban environment, their occurrence is deemed necessary if cellphone consumers are to utilise technology effectively and re- ceive service delivery from their providers,” says Day. Enviroworks is doing the assessment on behalf of Eaton Towers, which would lease the mast to South African mobile telecom- munication communities. The mast is not allocated to one particular company, as co-location by multiple compa- nies will be offered. He says studies done have proven that cell- phone masts do not pose a health threat to communities. “Exposure to unnaturally high levels of radiation can have health impacts on people.

The most widely accepted of these are the International Commission on Non-Ionis- ing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) guide- lines, also endorsed by the World Health Or- ganization and the South African Depart- ment of Health. Exposure to electromagnetic fields below the ICNIRP guidelines would not pose a neg- ative health effect to surrounding communi- ties, says Day.

CHILD TRAFFICKING: NEW RULE FROM DEPARTMENT OF HOME AFFAIRS
Securing future generationsIn an effort to reduce child trafficking inSouth Africa, the Department of HomeAffairs has issued a new and unique re-
quirement that will come into effect onWednesday 1 October.In a press release, the Department of
Home Affairs revealed children under theage of 18will be required to produce an un-abridged birth certificate in addition to apassport when entering or departing ortransiting South Africa.The Amendment Acts and the new regu-
lations came into effect on 26 May. Thenew regulation was initially going to be ineffect as of 1 July.However the Department of Home Af-
fairs has provided a grace period to allowchildren to travel with parents or guardi-ans without an unabridged birth certifi-cate until the end of September.This means that families will be able to
travel with children even for the comingschool holidays as some would have madethe necessary arrangements ahead of thenew regulation commencing.The department urges citizens and for-
eign nationals to heed the call to apply forunabridged birth certificates for children.An unabridged birth certificate of the
child reflecting the particulars of the par-ents is required in terms of the Immigra-tion Regulation 6 (12)(a) for children trav-elling with parents.This new requirement must be adhered
to regardless of the nationality, whetherthe child is travelling with parents, withother adults or unaccompanied.June Crawford, CEO of the Board of Air-
line Representatives SA (Barsa), saysSouth Africa will be the only country in
the world mandating this for travellers byair and, as a result,will cause “mass confu-sion and disruption” to tourists and airtravellers globally.“Air travellers and travel agents in
SouthAfrica and overseas just don’t knowabout this requirement. Why would they?A passport is the globally recognised trav-el document,” she says.Crawford says from 1 July airlines will
be “forced” to refuse travel to families notin possession of these documents and asa result will cause disruption to travelplans, financial impact on service provid-ers and reputational damage for South Af-rica is inevitable.“The policy timing could not be worse
as South Africa prepares to welcome tour-ists over the peak European school holi-day travel season.”The Department of Home Affairs states
that the purpose of the unabridged birthcertificate requirement is to create an ad-ditional verification todeter child traffick-ing andwhile the goal iswell-meaning, theunintended consequences of the resultingconfusion is significant.The home affairs department started is-
suing unabridged birth certificates fornewborns from 4 March 2013, on the spot,at no cost.This followed the department’s review
of the Birth and Death Act (1992) and theCitizenship Act (1995) which culminatedin the South African Citizenship Amend-ment Act 2010.The unabridged birth certificate ismore
secure and reliable with added informa-tion as it contains particulars of both par-ents, where possible, and their ID num-
bers and therefore supports the drive to se-cure the National Population Register sothat all people in the country are and feelsafe.The application can be made at any
home affairs office, by the parents (guardi-an), who should take along their identitydocuments and the child’s abridged certif-icate.These changes will also promote the de-
partment’s main function of issuing se-cure, credible and accurate birth certifi-cates as well as identity documents to allcitizens.Matipa Mwamuka, counter trafficking
project coordinator forNPOActivists Net-working against the Exploitation of Chil-dren, agrees with the protectionmeasure.“Although we have not looked at the newregulations thoroughly, we do welcome it.This will especially assist with childrentravelling from war torn countries mak-ing it easier to track them,” she says.Thiswill also assist in tracking children
in caseswhere their parents are separatedand the child travels with one parent,Mwamuka adds.“We also need to see which barriers ex-
ist.Wewant to knowhoweasily accessiblethis document is to parents andguardians,especially those living in remote areas,”she says.Mwamuka further says the home affairs
department needs to look beyond the sur-face of this new regulation. “We ask thata system be put in place to monitor the ap-plication, process and accessibility of thisdocument.V For more information on the amendment visitwww.dha.gov.za.

GRASSY PARK: FORK OUT TO JOIN NGO
Job ‘scam’ leads to confusionHENRY BOOYSEN
@henryspoke
An alleged job scam in which hundredsof Grassy Park residents are believedto be defrauded has the community up
in arms.This follows after NPO Sesikhona alleged-
ly approached residents with the promise ofwork if they registered with the organisa-tion, say residents.
Domonique Booysen, chairperson of theParkwood Backyarders’ Association, says:“People came to our houses and informed usthat Metrorail was looking to employ 15 000people to clean trains and train stationsacross Cape Town. They told us that if wepaid R25 we would be guaranteed employ-ment.
“People were excited because they weregoing to be working. For many residentspaying the R25 registration fee meant therewould not be bread in their homes for a cou-ple of days, but now they are still waiting andthey want answers,” says Booysen.
Meanwhile Metrorail spokesperson RianaScott insists there is no such agreement with
any third parties regarding work at Metro-rail.
“Residents must report the matter to theirlocal police. This is an alleged scam andMetrorail does not have any agreementswith anyone or any organisation to recruitworkers,” says Scott.
However, Metrorail regional managerMthuthuzeli Swartz confirms that the par-astatal is in serious talks with the Sesikho-na.
“Not all Metrorail employees are aware ofthis issue and will be in the dark about this,”says Swart.
“But I can confirm that Sesikhona is intalks with us on a senior level regarding cre-ating employment for residents living in im-poverished communities.”People’s Post has been informed residents
had to pay their registration fees at a housein Grassy Park.
A Sesikhona recruiter, who spoke on con-dition of anonymity, revealed they had col-lected the money from residents to join theNPO during recruitment.
The recruiter says she spoke with a wom-an, named Verdiana “Aunty Verdi” Mager-
man, who said she is affiliated with parlia-ment and has a contract with Metrorail andshe needs 15 000 employees.
“[She] came to my house and asked me toassist her in finding people in Grassy Parkand Retreat to assist her,” says the recruiter.
She says she suspected it could be a scamonly after Magerman collected the moneyfrom her.
“She came and collected the money,” therecruiter says.
“When I told her I made enquiries withMetrorail about the work she told me it wasa secret operation. I then realised this mightbe a scam,” the recruiter says.
Ward councillor Melanie Arendse advisesresidents to contact the police.
“I have contacted Metrorail who con-firmed to me that there is no work as prom-ised. We urge residents to go to the police sta-tion and open a fraud case,” Arendse tellsPeople’s Post.
“We believe [the woman who collected themoney] lives in Lost City, Mitchell’s Plain,and she is doing the same in Mitchell’s Plainand Athlone.
“We cannot allow our people to be prom-
ised work and conned out of money theyneed to survive.”
But Magerman insists the funds collectedis a joining fee for the NGO.
“The residents are confused about every-thing. The R25 is to join the NGO. It is theresponsibility of the NGO to try and sourcework for its members.”
And she insists Sesikhona has a contractwith Metrorail and residents who havesigned up will be starting work as from nextmonth.
“We have a tender with Metrorail to signup 15 000 people who will work by cleaningtrain stations,” says Magerman.
She referred People’s Post to the NGOchairperson Andile Lili.
Lili says negotiations are still underwaybetween the NGO and Metrorail.
“We are not selling any jobs. The R25 isto join the organisation,” he says.
“We approached Metrorail with a propos-al to provide internship for residents toclean their different facilities and createawareness. We want our people to work. Wehave received positive feedback but the pro-posal is yet to be approved.”

“Not on our watch and not in ourname.”The District Six Redevelopment
and Beneficiary Trust has announced thatit will withdraw from the third phase ofhousing developments, says chairpersonAnwah Nagia.TheTrust’s chief executive officer,NazAl-
ly, in a recent radio interview, has suggestedclaimants were being seduced by the prom-ise of a free home instead of subscribing tothe Trust’s vision of a sustainable DistrictSix with dignified homes and commercialopportunities.Nagia says the organisationhas pioneered
the return of claimants to District Six buthas “lots of issues” with the current phaseof development.The third phase will see almost 300 homes
built.The houses – which are around 60m² – un-
dermine the Trust’s vision for the areawhichwould allow residents business rightsto their properties. However, in order forlarger homes to be build, claimants wouldhave to contribute around R250 000.“The current phase is asking claimants to
forgo their business rights to get freehouses.The balance of commercial land rests in thehands of the claimants, as the income gener-ated will come back into the community.Wedon’t believe the view being used on thisphase is well informed. These houses are on-ly slightly bigger than an RDP house andwill devalue the entire area,” he says.“It’s not about brick andmortar. It’s about
restorative justice. It’s about bringing theworking class back to the city.”Nagia believes some interest groups are
pushing an agenda to ensure the Trust takes
a back seat. “We’re not going quietly. Somemay have turned against us, but we’ve doneeverything possible to bring claimants backto District Six. We’re used to fighting,” hesays.AReferenceGroupwas elected in 2012 and
was mandated to fast track the next phaseof development in the District Six restitu-tion process.Nagia says this step was taken by the De-
partment of Rural Development and LandReform to minimise the Trust’s involve-ment.“The government lied about theReference
Group. The Trust was always the mouth
piece for the community andwas democrati-cally elected. The minister felt a referencegroup would be more representative, but noelections were ever held,” he claims.District SixWorking Committee chairper-
son ShahiedAjam says the organisationwillstep forward to represent District Six claim-ants alongwith the electedReferenceGroup.He says the Trust has had a limited role
in the restitution process since for the lasttwo years. “Their account is not entirelytrue. In 2012, the Trust was replaced by theminister because of the R250 000 housing de-bacle. They’ve been out of the process forover two years now. I don’t see how they can
be vindictive towards those who have ac-cepted the third phase of housing,” he says.Vuyani Nkasi says the department was
not aware that the Trust had withdrawnfrom the third phase.“Wesee that they sometimes come tomeet-
ings and sometimes don’t. We are not awareof any allegations that the Trust was re-placed in 2012. Claimants are represented bya referencegroupwhichwaselected commu-nity members,” he says.However, the Trust does not intend with-
drawing from the redevelopment process al-together, says Nagia.“We’ll never walk away,” he says.

BATTSWOOD PRIMARY: UNSAFE TAXI TRANSPORT
Pupils dodgetraffic chaosHENRY BOOYSEN

Illegally parked taxis transporting pupilsto and from Battswood Primary Schoolare risking the children’s safety.So says community activist Keith Blake.Residents fear a traffic disaster iswaiting
to occur.Blake says he had noticed that illegally
parked taxis waiting to collect pupils afterschool were putting the children’s safety atrisk. “One afternoon I noticed that the taxisare parking on an island waiting to collectpupils. The pupils then have to cross BerylRoad which is extremely busy to get to thetaxis. The principal suggested we open theback gate of the school for the taxis to parkinside. This was done, but now the taxis areignoring this,” says Blake.He continues that he has requested the
provincial Department of Education to in-tervene in the situation.“I have approached them and they have
done absolutely nothing about this. Hereare trucking companies using Beryl Road.I told the department if nothing happensabout this situation and a child is hurt orin a fatal accident, the onus will solely beon them to accept the consequences,” saysa concerned Blake.Jessica Shelver, the spokesperson for the
provincial Department of Education, saysthat the department is waiting for a reportinto the situation.“To confirm, the department is aware of
the matter and it has been dealt with. Theschool principal has written to and in-formed the traffic department with regardsto the taxis. The principal has alsometwiththe parents,” says Shelver.Gavin Thomas, principal of Battswood
Primary School, insists the taxis were in-formed to operate in an orderly manner.“We have told them to park on the school
premises and ensure that pupils picked upstay in the vehicle and not leave the vehicleat any time.“There are cases where pupils cross the
road to go to shops for sweets and drinksbut we have put a stop to this. We have in-formed the traffic department about thisand they gave us feedback that they will bemonitoring the situation,” says Thomas.Phillip Bam, the chairperson of the Lotus
River/Grassy Park Ratepayers’ Associa-tion, says that the safety of pupils needs tocome first.“The circumstances must be suitable for
pupils at all times. The authorities need tobe at various schools during the morningand afternoon times so that they can moni-tor who is transgressing.V Do you have any comment about the safety ofBattswood Primary pupils? Starting with the word“Post”, SMS your comments to 32516. SMSes cost R1.

Reunited and itfeels so goodHENRY BOOYSEN
@henryspoke
An anti-apartheid group has reunitedonce again to celebrate 54 years offriendship.
The IndependentOrder of TrueTemplarsmovement – which in the 1960s ralliedagainst the apartheid “dop system” – reu-nited in Heathfield to share their tales andexperiences as friends.
The group – all ofwhomare retired – con-sists of John Cornelius from Kuils River,Francois Mettler from Bellville, AbrahamArendse from Ottery, Emmanuel Adamsfrom Grassy Park, Dave Sassman fromHeathfield andLionelHarding fromRaven-smead.
The movement – which has principles
based on Christianity – was formed aftermembers realised the “dop system” nega-tively impacted on society. The systemwasimplemented by the apartheid governmentas a method of payment to coloured farm-workers.
“Wewere involved in secretmeetings,wehad secret passwords and handshakes andwere involved in numerous marchesthrough the streets of Cape Town headingto the City Hall,” says Sassman.
“This often resulted inmany police raidsat our homes and many of us being impris-oned overnight at Caledon Square PoliceStation.
“We were fearless fighters for sobrietywho led demonstrations against a cruelgovernment who was determined to turnevery coloured into a slave to liquor.”

PARKWOOD: CITY UPGRADE WELCOMED
Backyardersto get serviceHENRY BOOYSEN
@henryspoke
Cold water, no electricity and the shar-ing of toilets will soon become a thingof the past for backyarders from Park-
wood Estate.This comes after the City of Cape Town
identified the backyard dwellings in Park-woodEstate as an area in need of urgent up-grades.“The news of the upgrades the City will
be doing comes at a timewhen backyardersreally need it. We are excited about this, ”says Domonique Booysen, chairperson oftheParkwoodEstateBackyarders’Associa-tion.The upgrades include installation of
wash basins, new toilets and electricityboxes.Ward councillor Melanie Arendse says
although she shares the excitement of thebackyarders, they still need to remain pa-tient.“This is great news for the backyarders
andwearedelighted that theCityhasdecid-ed to invest in backyarders,” she says.Arendse pleads that backyarders need to
remain patient and not expect the upgradesto take place overnight.“We urge residents to remain positive as
the upgradeswill only take placewithin theCity’s new financial year which starts inJuly,” says Arendse.Booysen adds backyarders were getting
frustrated about their living conditions andapproached the City to assist them.“Wehad sent a petition awaywith 300 sig-
natures requesting the City look at our liv-
ing conditions. We can now gladly say ourefforts have paid off,” says Booysen.Arendse adds that the City will face chal-
lenges when the upgrades start.“There are plots where there are many
dwellings involved. This will become achallenge for the City but these are thingsthat the City has dealt with in many areas,so we believe this should not deter their ef-forts with the upgrades,” she adds.Siyabulela Mamkeli, the City’s Mayoral
Committee member for Human Settle-ments, says the upgrades in Parkwood Es-tate formpart of aCity initiative to improveconditions of backyarders staying in Cityrental stock.“In ParkwoodEstate, the installation and
placement of 161 panel cast concrete toilets,sewer connections, wash trough and a tapper erf will be installed,” says Mamkeli.The City has budgeted a total of R1 233 775
for the installations in Parkwood Estate.Mamkeli adds that the Citywill face chal-
lenges doing the upgrades due to the densi-ty in the backyards.
“This limits the space in which the Cityis able to install these services,” saysMam-keli.“If those living in these structures arenot
willing to cooperate with regard to reloca-tion and deviations, it would be virtuallyimpossible to install services.”He adds: “The process of installing this
number of services can be completed with-in one month.“However, given the constraints of the
density of the structures this process couldbe prone to setbacks and could take as longas six months.”

Although Danni CarreraBeanz knows she’s gorgeous,digging holes is her favourite
activity.Danni digs, but she has plenty
more to offer than just holes in theground. She is a “therapy dog”.And her human, Edith Kriel of
Jelly Beanz, is also a therapist.People’s Post patted Danni and
spoke to Edith recently about the“therapy dog” initiative by the Ta-ble View-based non-profit organi-sation that gives hope to childrenaffected by trauma and abuse.“We called her Danni so a child
could see her as a boy or a girl,”says Edith. “As part of Danni’swork, children might project theirown issues onto her, so they canchoose what they want Danni tobe.”
Dog daysDanni, who has been involved in
playful tug-of-war with a rope,stops briefly and tilts her headquizzically.“Her surname, Beanz, is self-ex-
planatory, and her middle namecomes from the Porche Carerramodel. Porche were our initialsponsors,” says Edith.Danni is still undergoing obedi-
ence training, but she has alreadyleft her mark on Jelly Beanz.“We went to a school recently
and talked about howdogs could beused in work, such as police dogs.
After the assembly a little girlwentto her teacher and told her abouttrauma in her own life, somethingshe has never told anyone before.The girl then asked the teacher if
she could go talk to Danni about it– and the lady who belongs to Dan-ni. I became sort of insignificant,because Danni is now the draw-card,” explains Edith.
And Danni is happy to listen tochildren’s fears and help themwipe away their tears.All she asks in return is a tummy
scratch and food.
“She likes food,” says Edith.Danni sits bolt upright at the
mention of food.On the website yourpurebred-
puppy.com, the Newfoundland isdescribed as being “calm, dignifiedand generally quiet”.They forgot to add the condition-
al clause “as long as you don’tmen-tion food”.“She loves her pellets and eats a
relatively large amount of food eve-ry day... So we would love it ifsomeone helped us sponsor herfood for a while,” says Edith.Anymention of food getsDanni’s
full attention, possibly also be-cause food is used as an effectivemeans to motivate her, as it is inmost dog training.But her long lustrous coat also
needs attention.Edith says Danni is groomed
twice a month at a pet parlour.This is all to keep Danni looking
good for the important work shehas to do. “The most important as-pect is, of course, the role Danniwill be playing at Jelly Beanz.If a child sees Danni make a mis-
take then it’s a very useful place tobegin a conversation about howweallmakemistakes, howwemanageit and how people respond to it.“Also, just having an animal
there for the children is comfort-ing. Danni is my co-therapist,”elaborates Edith.V If anyone can sponsor food for Danni Carrera Beanz they can contact Jelly Beanz on(021) 556 2456 or email edith [email protected].
WOOF: Danni is not a bear, but a dog – and a therapy dog at that!
PEOPLE'S POST | GRASSY PARKThursday, 26 June 2014 NEWS 11VIRTUAL FRAUD: HOLIDAY HOME ‘DID NOT EXIST’
Scammed out of holidayCHEVON BOOYSEN
@ChevonBooysen
Online scamming is becoming a virtual nightmareas one holidaymaker found out.
Desperate for some time out and in search ofaffordable holiday accommodation, Zariah de Wetstarted looking for places online.
“I responded to an advertisement on [a website] andbooked a holiday home over the Easter weekend. Ispoke to a guy who identified himself,” she says.
“I deposited an amount of R3 560 into a Nedbank ac-count and arrangements were made to arrive onThursday 18 April. When we go to our destination werealised the address was not holiday accommodationand, in fact, did not exist,” says an angry De Wet.
The holiday home was advertised showing photos ofthe property.
Police spokesperson Constable Zandile Marashulaconfirms that a case of fraud was reported at the Mitch-ell’s Plain Police Station and the case is still under in-vestigation. No suspects have yet been arrested.
“We can confirm that a case of fraud was reportedon Friday 4 April. The complainant alleges she bookeda holiday getaway and made payments for the reserva-tion. The complainant later discovered that the placedoes not exist,” Marashula says.
De Wet has since tried to contact the person she li-aised with to make the reservation.
“They are still operating with the number I contact-ed them on, but they keep using different names. It’sso frustrating that they can get away with my hard-earned cash.”
Sergeant Jerome Voegt from Mitchell’s Plain policesays consumers should be very wise when making pur-chases online. “Do not deposit money into an accountwithout referencing and checking that the productyou’re purchasing is legitimate,” he says.
Police urge the community to be more alert of fraud-ulent internet purchases.
“We encourage the community to report such cybercrimes,” Marashula says.V Have you been scammed through an online purchase? Startingwith the word “Post”, SMS your views to 32516. SMSes cost R1.

Mercedes’ awesome S63 AMGCoupe – a car that can leanlike amotorcycle – is expect-
ed in South Africa in November,followed early in 2015 by the S500Coupe.Prices will be released closer to
the launch date.The coupe is poweredbyanAMG
5.5-litre V8 biturbo engine that’scapable of 430kW/900Nm – that’s30kW/100Nm more than the previ-ous CL 63 AMG.
Choose your exhaust soundThe engine will drive through
AMG Speedshift seven-speedsports transmission with threemodes - C (controlled efficiency), S(sport) and M (manual). A stop/start function will be standard andfuel consumption is listed as 10.1 li-tres/100km, down by 0.4 litres.How fast? 0-100 in 4.3sec and250km/h (electronically limited).The Coupe’s exhaust note de-
pends on the selected drive mode;AMG sports exhaust adjusts flapsin each rear silence. In Cmode, forinstance, the flaps remain closedfor amore sedate sound. They openearlier in sport or manual moide.
Magic body controlThe coupe will have the auto-
maker’s “magic body control” ac-tive suspension which scans theroad ahead and adapts accordinglybut for this car a tilt function forgoing through curves has beenadded – a first for series-produc-tion cars. It enables the S 63 AMGCoupe to lean through bends – justlike a motorcycle.Merc explained: “The lateral ac-
celeration acting on occupants isreduced in a way akin to whendriving on a banked curve. Thepassengers sitmore firmly. The ob-ject is not to reach higher corner-ing speeds but to produce an evenmore pleasant motoring experi-ence.”The curve-tilt function can be se-
lected as one of three drive modesand activates from 30-180km/h.The S63AMGCoupé can be fitted
with multi-spoke forged grey alloyrims (8.5x19 front and 9.5x19 rear)
with 255/45 and 285/40tyres respec-tively, 10-spoked forged alloy rims(8.5x20 front and 9.5x20 rear) with255/40 and 285/35 tyres or five-spoked matte black alloys.
And in the cabin......which has powered and heata-
ble leather sports seats with AMGbadging, a new three-spoked AMGsports steering-wheel, aluminiumshift paddles, a new touchpad as-creen and a high-resolution dis-play with two animated dials. Safe-
ty and assistance systems are car-ried over from the standard SClass.As an optional extra, buyers can
add 47 Swarovski crystals for eachheadlight.
Edition 1Buyers wanting even more ex-
clusivity can opt for the S63 AMGCoupe Edition 1 which adds thecrystals to the LED’s, grey/blackor red/black leather AMG sportsseats and contrasting stitching for
the facia, armrests and door lin-ings.“Edition 1” mats with leather
edges, sill panels with illuminatedAMG badging and gloss-blackwood trim are also part of the deal.The AMG sports steering-wheel
has “Edition 1” lettering.An infra-red “night view”projec-
tion on to the windscreen is alsostandard.The S63 AMG Coupe will be de-
livered with six-year or 100 000kmPremiumDrivemaintenance plan.

When booking a car in for a serviceor for repairs, few of you are pre-pared for the shock when you real-
ise the cost of the replacement parts.Depending on what dealership or garage
you take your car to, these costs can varybecause different types of parts are used.Les McMaster, chairpeson of the Motor
Industry Workshop Association (Miwa),says it is important to know exactly whatparts are being fitted to your vehicle foryour own safety, the good running of yourvehicle and for insurance purposes.He says there are three types of parts typi-
cally available to South Africans. OriginalEquipment Manufacturer (OEM), genericparts (non-OEM) and parts manufacturedwith no quality control measures in place(pirate parts).OEMs are usually available from your
car dealership’s service department andthey’re used as a direct replacement to theoriginal part that was fitted on your car onthe assembly line.Although these parts aremore expensive,
theyusually comewithawarranty and theyare stringently tested for quality.Non-OEMs or aftermarket parts are non-
branded and inmany case they are as good,or even better, than the OEM counterpart.Some vehicle brands have even started to
develop their own non-OEM lines as an ad-ditional income generator.“Many warranties require consumers to
use OEM parts and they would be voided ifapproved parts are not used,” says McMas-ter.“But this is not always the case, so check
with your insurance service provider if youwant to use non-OEM parts,” he continues.Additionally, some non-OEMpartsmight
not be a good physical fit for a specific vehi-cle, and using them could cause damage toyour vehicle if fitted incorrectly.However, McMaster points out that in
most instances, the non-OEM parts offergood, affordable quality, making them fa-vourable options for older models.“In fact, if it can be proven that the gener-
ic part is of the same quality as the OEMpart, many insurance companies them-selves ask repair shops to use these genericparts to lower costs,” he says.Pirate parts are the ‘cheap and nasty’ of-
fering and with these products there is noway of knowing what kind of quality youare getting.Some of these products are just as good
as the OEM parts, but others are extremelydangerous.They are cheaper because they cut cor-
ners and use poor quality materials and be-sides the potential damage to your vehicle,using these parts creates a very real physi-cal risk.If you receive a lower than expected
quote, don’t simply take it at facevalue, cau-tions McMaster. “Pirate parts are usuallyan inferior-quality forgery and they arenever a bargain, because the losses youwillincur are invariably higher than the sav-ings you thinkyouwillmake,” saysMcMas-ter.Not knowing which parts are being fitted
to your vehicle could have expensive anddangerous consequences.

Time for total recallWHEELS24

Honda, Mazda, Toyota and Nissan are re-callingmillions of vehicles globally for de-fective airbags manufactured by supplierTakata that could possibly explode.No crashes have been reported related
to Monday 23 June recalls.Takata is a major manufacturer of air-
bags, seat belts, steering wheels and otherauto parts.InApril andMay last year,Takata’s cus-
tomers – led by Honda and Toyota – re-calledmore than fourmillion vehicles dueto the risk that defective air-bag inflators
could blow apart. Takata and Honda toldUS safety regulators the core of the prob-lem was how the explosive material usedto inflate Takata air-bags had been han-dled and processed from 2000 through2002.Honda South Africa cannot yet confirm
whether local models will be affected.Last year’s recalls involving Honda and
four other automakers were intended toclose the book on a problem that emergedin 2007 and had already been linked to twodeaths.Takata reported that the earlier recall
had not included all of the problem air-bags..

Home run for A’s duoLIAM MOSES
@LiamCPT
Cape Town’s two brightest baseball tal-ents are set to test themselves againstthe world’s best when they represent
South Africa at the 15 and under BaseballWorld Cup next month.
Bridgetown’s Lance Gordon and Silver-town’s Keino Davids were called up to thenational team after impressing for WesternProvince. The two are hard at work, train-ingwith theotherCape-basednational teammembers.
Although the duo admits SA is not a bigbaseball nation, they will be heading to theWorld Cup aiming to cause upsets.
“Everyone is going to underestimate us,so when we arrive in Mexico we can showthem South Africans can play the game,”Davids says.
“We work hard and will always try to doour best.”
Gordon and Davids have been membersof Athlone Athletics Baseball Club formorethan seven years.
Both were immediately hooked on thesport after their first time on the diamondand neither has looked back since.
Belgravia High School pupil Davids rep-resented WP both last and this year, whileGroote Schuur High’s Gordon has been inthe WP side every year since 2009, exceptin 2012.
Gordon, first choice catcher at A’s, be-lieves it was his batting that resulted in hisnational call up.
“I’m quite versatile, so I can play any-where the coach wants me to, while still do-ing well,” he says.
“I also hit with power and bring lots ofspirit to the team.”
He further attributes his balling ability isa result of hard work, not only the talent he
inherited from his father.During the baseball season Davids and
Gordon train twice a week, for 90 minutes,and have been doing so with the nationalside as well.
Training is set to step-up in intensity inthe coming days, with two to three-hourlong national team training sessions eachday during the school holidays.
While Davids and Gordon will be givingtheir all at training, theywill each also needto raise R20 000 to fund the trip.
Gordon will host a fundraising party atthe Athlone A’s clubhouse on Saturday 28June and Davids will also host one in thenear future (date to be confirmed).
The International Baseball Fedaration15U World Cup will take place from Thurs-day 31 July toSunday 10August in theMexi-can towns of Mazatlán and Culiacan.V To purchase tickets or assist the players to participate in the World Cup, phone Gordon’s father on084 605 4500 or Davids’ grandmother on079 756 5057.

Vikings, Cats crowned ball champsLIAM MOSES
@LiamCPT
The Montana Vikings Basketball Clubsurged to victory in the inaugural CapeBasketball Championship on Sunday.
Vikings, a juggernaut in Cape basketball,lost just one game throughout the tourna-ment to claim the trophy and R8000 in cash.
The Championship started at the Cape Pe-ninsula University of Technology (CPUT)Cape Town campus with pool matches onSaturday.
Vikings were drawn in Pool B along withCPUT Cats and CPUT Alumni, while Pool Acomprised Constantia-based HurricanesBasketball Club, the University of CapeTown (UCT) and the University of the West-ern Cape (UWC).
Vikings got their title charge going witha narrow 67-63 win over Cats before losing54-51 to Alumni to finish second in theirgroup, while Cats placed first.
In Group A Hurricanes beat UWC 64-60and UCT 64-38 to finish on top, while UWCfinished second after beating UCT 66-48 intheir other game.
But the scores and results from the groupstages proved a poor reflection of the teamsinvolved, as both the group winners wereeliminated in the semi-finals.
Hurricanes lost 72-50 to Vikings, whileCats were beaten 84-66 by UWC. Cats wenton to beatHurricanes 77-70 in the third-placeplay-off to claim the bronze medal.
And Vikings took all the spoils after beat-ing UWC 80-75 in the final.
The final of the women’s tournament fin-
ished with the CPUT Cats first and secondteams battling it out for superiority.
Both teamswent into the final undefeated,finishing at the summit of their respectivegroups.
The Cats second team topped Pool A afterdefeating UCT 54-30 and Lethal Ladies 57-37,while Lethal Ladies were second after beat-ing UCT 60-22.
The Cats first teambeat UWC 62-49 andVi-kings 43-38, and Vikings finished second inthe group after beating UWC 65-41 in theirother match.
The first team dominated their semi-finalfixture against Lethal Ladies, winning 68-38,while the second side scraped to a 49-45 winover Vikings. The Vikings women’s teamcould not emulate their men’s team by tak-ing home amedal and lost 64-42 to Lethal La-
dies in the third-place play-off.In the end, the CPUT first team were too
strong and beat the second team 62-44 to takehome the R8000 in cash and the trophy.
The annual tournament was hosted byPlatinum Media Group.
