    filling stations this week. Some filling stations saw

    pump attendants in normal clothes, reports of minor

    intimidation were received and overall everybodywho had to fill up a vehicle had experienced some

    form of difficulty. In the photograph (supplied by

    Magaba Filling Station), Mrs Alida Lourens is

    group in the background. Magaba Filling Station

    is one of the filling stations where non NUMSA

    Modikwa Platinum Mine acknowledges that

    unemployment is a challenge in the neighbouring

    communities. The Mine is committed to local employment,

    with more emphasis placed on the seven host communities

    and currently has 55% of its workforce coming from

    Sekhukhune District Municipality. Furthermore the mine is

    running skills development programmes that assist in

    preparing locals for the mining job market, we currently

    have 81 millwrights learners, and are in the process of

    engaging 30 Multi-Tasking Cadets. Modikwa has recently

    signed off a local procurement policy which aims to

    improve access to procurement opportunities. As at end of

    August 2013, the Mine has done business with 25 100%

    black owned companies from Greater Tubatse Municipalityto the value of R43 Million and R25 Million with black

    empowered companies ( above 25% black shareholding)

    bringing our local spend to R68 Million year to date. The

    mine is committed to continuous engagement with

    communities and would like to encourage all community

    members to raise issues through the elected community

    representatives.

    Communities march

    Anglo American Platinum and African

    Rainbow Minerals joint venture at Modikwa

    Platinum Mine at Maandagshoek near

    Burgersfort endured the wrath of the

    community this week when a group of

    villagers marched upon the mine.

    The march, headed by representativesof three sections of a Maandagshoek village

    were armed with memoranda to present to

    mine and company representatives. The

    usual gripes between communities and

    mines surfaced again, such as local

    employment by the mine, the awarding of

    tenders to entrepreneurs and companies

    within the villages and in this case,

    representation in the Section 21 company

    that handles the affairs of the community.

    Villagers were also not happy with the

    community liaison representatives who

    must interact between them and the

    company.

    Several demands in this regard are

    contained in the three memoranda. Police

    were also present and the march dispersed

    peacefully.

    people were arrested and charged in

    terms of the Liquor Act. The Police

    said no stone left unturned to root out

    concoction and the operation

    continues. The station commander

    edged the community to call the sector

    commander Warrant Officer Segabutla

    and report any criminal activities to tel

    no 072 254 0411.

    Meanwhile as 23 year old man, Happy

    Paulus Moraba, appeared in the

    Matshokgeng village on 2013-09-02. It

    is alleged the accused had a fight with

    the victim and stabbed him with a beer

    bottle and the victim died at the clinic.

    The suspect was granted a bail of

    R2000. The case continues on 2013-
