The Supreme Court of Appeal has

dismissed an appeal by the Manok Family

Trust to have a land claim allowed with

regard to the Farm Aapiesdoorndraai (No

298 KT) adjacent to Burgersfort town, where

inter alia the Motaganeng Light Industrial

Park is now in development.

Judgment in the matter between the

Manok Family Trust and amongst others,

Blue Horison Investments 10, Cranbrook

Property Projects and the Regional Land

Claims Commissioners of Limpopo and

Mpumalanga respectively, was delivered

last week Friday after the matter was heard

on 06 March this year.

The court concluded that the decision of

the Regional Land Claims Commissioner not

to publish a notice of a land claim in the

Government Gazettein 2000 on the grounds

that certain preconditions in the Restitution

of Land Rights Act precluded the registration

of a claim, was correct as the claimants laid

claim on the whole farm, while it never

owned the whole farm, but only one part of

three parts. Thus they tried to claim land

they never possessed and they were never

dispossessed of the land they owned.

This decision of the Regional Land

Claims Commissioner was reversed after

political interference in 2008 and notice of a

land claim was published. Blue Horison

Investments 10 (Pty) Ltd, a subsidiary of

Cranbrook Limited, took the matter to the

Land Claims Court and the court decided in

the companys favour in 2012, meaning that

the decision to allow a claim, was reversed.

It is against this decision that the appeal was

lodged.

The Supreme Court of Appeal pointed

out the Land Claims Court was correct in

reversing this decision as the decision was

in accordance with relevant legislation,

which stipulates that a decision by a

Regional Land Claims Commissioner not to

allow a claim on the grounds of preclusion

(and after the relevant notices had been

served) cannot be reversed, although on the

other hand a claim can be reversed later if

the conditions of preclusion can be proved.

CEO of Cranbrook Limited, Hoffman

Prinsloo, says he is relieved at the outcome

of the court case and satisfied that the

constitutionality of the issue was thoroughly

tested towards all the parties benefit.

BafflingFor at least a day you will be able to toe the line while the

potholes in Burgersforts Morone Street is still filled with

loose soil. Otherwhise the newly painted white line here and

Dwarsrivier Mine

On Thursday 13 June the Ngwaabe community gathered at

Ngwaabe Combined School for a Crime Awareness Campaign.

Various stakeholders and Dwarsrivier Mine as one of the main

sponsors supported the day. The purpose of the day was to create

awareness in the community about crime and the structures

available to those who are victims of abuse or domestic violence.

Speakers included representatives from Home based Care, Victim

Empowerment Programmes (VEP), YAC, Community Policing

Forum (CPF), Ngwaabe Combined School Principal Mr Motene,

the LRC president, Mega Bus Transport, Dwarsrivier Mine,

Glencore, Booysendal Mine, Tubatse Municipality, Department

of Health, Department of Social Development and a keynote

address by Captain Seabi from the SAPS Lebowakgomo cluster.

The days programme was not only filled with speeches but also

had lively items by artists, SKfm and learners from schools and

crches in the area. The health and safety of communities

surrounding the mines is very important to the company. Mr

Themba Sibanyoni from Dwarsrivier Mine encouraged those

present to work with the SAPS to root out crime, to stay away

from drugs and rather focus on studying and creating a better

future for themselves. Residents were encouraged to make use of

the various support structures available to victims of crime and

to report criminal activities. This event was the second crime

awareness campaign with Dwarsrivier Mine as one of the main

sponsors. Earlier the year a similar event was hosted at Mashishing

in Thaba Chweu Municipality.

Dwarsrivier Mine supports a

crime free community

Protest at Ga-Motodi ClinicOn Friday 13 June the Ga-Motodi community marched to the

Naboomkoppies Clinic in protest of a new security companyat the clinic. According to the community the new companybrought their own employees from Venda and other areas,while the local security officers previously employed at the

clinic lost their jobs. Residents were upset that local people

with the same qualifications were not taken in.

The company that received the contract is apparently underway to

negotiate with the locals so that the issue can be resolved as soonas possible.We just want the people of Sekhukhune to get preferance for jobopportunities in our area, especially when there are qualified peopleliving right next to the places of employment, the community said.

The Burgersfort SAPS gave special attention to Child ProtectionWeek. The Community Policing Unit held a crime awarenesscampaign at Twinkle Kids. The theme of the day was Breaking thesilence on child abuse.

Schools were competing with poems and choral verses related to

fighting crime.Constable Maluleka, Social Crime Coordinator elaborated that lots ofthe children are being abused even though they are still very young.She told the children they need to know the disadvantages ofkeeping silent when they are being abused. Many girls are being

sexually abused by family members and this must be reported. Wewant children to know that nobody is above the law. Even if a familymember or any other person threatens to kill them, they must reportthe abuse because the police is there to protect them. They must

grow up knowing the police are their friends.(Photographs and information: Burgersfort SAPS).

Ms Sarah Mmeya is one of the Ga-Madiseng village residents near Riba

Cross that has not had a good year so

far. In December last year her housecollapsed during a violent storm(photograph at the bottom). Since then

she and her six children have stayed in acorrugated make-shift home. In May a

damaging wind blew this shelter apart.

Now in the depth of winter she and thechildren are living in a shack with manybended corrugated iron pieces and holes.

This home was puttogether with whatcould be salvaged after

the windstorm.Her neighboursapproached the

newpaper with herplight. She is currentlystuffing clothing and

Six months without waterResidents from Ga-Motodi Moshate Section had been collectingwater from the Tswetiane river approximately 3km from their homesafter they were left with dry communal taps for the last 6 months.Residents have been boiling and bleaching the water to avoidbecoming sick. Residents with their own boreholes sell water in theward for R2-50 per 20 litre bucket.

The root of the water problem seems to be a broken pump whichrequired spares that have to be imported.

Fed-up residents told the newspaper that they were tired (and thirsty)while waiting for water to be restored. This led to a group digging upexisting pipes that are feeding water to other sections of the village.The water taken from these pipes brought relief to women walking tocollect water for cooking, washing and doing laundry. One, only

identified as Tebogo said: The water problems even forced mydaughter to move to another village. Another woman added for sixmonths weve been drinking with the animals, but this temporarysolution from pipeline is bringing us relief.

New draft food labeling legislation is aiming

to protect consumers and provide betterinformation. The document is currently open

for comments from the public and itaddresses issues such as foods claiming tobe diet products or health foods.All the health claims such as high in vitamin

C will have to be substantiated. Theproposed regulation will forcemanufacturers to put not only a list of

ingredients on the packaging, but also the

nutritional value e.g. the carbohydrate,protein and fat content per serving.The proposal is not without controversy. Adrink using artificial sweeteners instead ofsugar will not be able to use the word Zero

or Diet on its label. Shops stocking foodwith religious endorsements such askosher or halal will have to also stock

identical products without the endorsementson the label. The draft claims that this willprovide consumers with their constitutional

right of choice.Platinum Gazetteasked readers what theythink of the proposed legislation andwhether they care about reading the labels

of the food they buy.

Mr Juda Mojalefa said: I sometimes read

the labels of food packaging. It will work ifthey give the people more choice withregards to the wrapping and religious logos.

It will show respect for the various religions.

Mr Johannes Mabelane said: No, I never

read the labels. I have no time. I am always

in a hurry. If they improve the information onthe labels it will be good.

Mr Lawrence Kgoete said: Yes, I read the

labels of the things I buy. I think the

additional information that will be on thelabel will be nice. I dont think it is necessaryfor separate wrappers for each religiousendorsement.

Mr Ally Mathole said: Sometimes I read thelabels. Ive stopped regularly reading theinformation on the label because in the past

you believe it and then find out that themanufacturers have lied about what they putinside. So what is the use of reading it? I do

care about what they put in the food, buthow can you be sure? It is a good idea toprovide different wrappings for the differentendorsements.

Mr Isaac Malatji said: Not really. I only readto see pork or no pork. We would likedifferent packaging for the different religiousendorsements. I think it is a good idea.

Mr Ezzy Mosoma said: Ja, I read the

labels. People need all the information. It isgood that they regulate our foods. I dontthink they have to put the food in different

wrappers for the different endorsements.Keep things like they are, just add theadditional information.

Ms Motlatso Lekubu said: Yes, I read thelabels. I would like to have different wrapperswith the separate religious endorsement

logos. We need all the information to be ableto know the product is good.

Mnr. Terrence Roberts: Hulle is simpel! Disnie nodig om so ver te gaan en dieverpakkings vir elke geloof te gaan verandernie.

Mnr. Willem Montgomery s: Dis onpraktiesom die verskillende labels te h. Dis welgoed om al die inligting op die labels te sit

veral vir mense wat allergies vir sekeregoed is. Dis overkill om verskillendeverpakkings vir die verskillende logos te h.

Mr Mike Kgwete, Mr Thato Serage and Mr Aubrey Moela said: If we go fish, we go to theriver. We know we will get fish there. If we go to the shop, we know what we would like tobuy. We want to know all the information about the products as some of us are allergic to

things. We read all the ingredients and would appreciate the nutritional value of the foodbeing on the packaging. It is absolutely necessary to get different packaging for the differentreligious endorsements.

Me. Joyce Komane en Me. Thandi Moriri s:

Nee, dit sal te veel wees as hulle alles virelke logo apart wil verpak. Hou dit soos ditis, maar dit is goed om te weet hoeveelsuiker ens. in die produkte is. Mense metallergiesen siektes moet kan sien wat om tekies. Dis goed dat hulle gesondheidskos en

dieetkos beter wil beheer.

Mr Dumisa Madalane said: I read thelabels. I look for the low-fat products and

want to trust that if it says that it is low-fat orthat there is no pork in it, it is true. Youknow, many of us dont eat pork. It is goodto try and accommodate everyone but

people also need to be practical. Shopsdont have enough space to stock oneproduct in three or four different wrappers.

Me. Katryn de Jonge s: Hoekom moet die

verpakking vir jou alles s? Mense moet selfverantwoordelikheid vat. Nee, ek lees niedie labelsnie.

Ms. Eudif Diale and Mr Elvis Nkuna said:They must change it so that people willunderstand what they are buying. Keep one

packaging for the endorsements. People aretolerant, just have all the logos andinformation on the label.

Mr Rufus Malepe said: I read the labels. Iwould like the nutritional value on all the

labels of the things I buy. Packaging withendorsements are fine like they arecurrently being done.

Mr SM Sehlabela said: Yes, I read the

labels. It is good that theyll need to add thenutritional information because people havedifferent diets. People must be tolerant of

each other and their religions so just keepthe packaging with the endorsements as itis.

Do you care about the label?

Tubatse SUPERSPARcustomers smile all

the wayTubatse SUPERSPAR is making customers smile with theirgreat prices, friendly service and wonderful competitions.Last weekend Mr Piliso Nkoana was the lucky winner in the WildWeekend Competition. He received a R500 shopping voucher. Itwas handed to him by Ms Nonjabulo Mbiza from Spar.

If you are not in the market for a lorry size 4 x 4 , but needs something larger than a car, sayfor six people, or four people and a dog (theirs or yours) and a parrot or cat, then maybe

the Chevrolet Captiva from General Motors South Africa can be your vehicle of choice.

Keyless entry with a fob in your pocket opened the specimen we took delivery of from

Westvaal Steelpoort earlier this week.

Turn a fixed key like knob where the key usually goes, and of you go. Steelpoort equals

bumps and potholes, but the two-wheel drive manual shift (six gears) LT version we were

sitting in, did not encounter any problem with that.

The car may not look like a Ferrari, and may seem a bit uninspiring from the outside, but

get in behind the steering wheel and your perception changes.

The car / crossover is certainly not a true bundu basher, but for rough roads and gravel it

is perfect, large, comfortable and even luxurious. The 2.4 16 valve Ecotec engine will not let

you catch the Ferrari, but it is lively enough for the purpose of the vehicle. (Rephrase the

Ferrari will struggle to catch you, as it is not really designed for Steelpoort).

The vehicle is large, but not too large, it rides well, have enough space for seven people

and even the two jump seats at the back are very comfortable and easily accessible for

adults. Flipping up the mid row of seats is an easy one-lever operation and the access

space is wide. Or you can fold everything down for a massive load bay (we noticed a cargo

net in the cubby hole).

It is kind of useless to list everything the car has and can do as none of our readers are

walking acronym dictionaries. It is easier to say that the car has practically everything to

keep you safe (airbags, all the brake things) and entertained (USB slot, bluetooth, 3.5 mm

audio jack, radio etc).

Directional stability is very good, and thanks to the guy in the large bakkie who took a

chance and almost drove into us outside town, we also tested the brakes thoroughly. They

work very well and the vehicle did not flinch (we did).

The Chevrolet Captiva is certainly a very comfortable family car for the bigger family,

with a few capabilities surpassing that of cars and if you really want to go for everything the

diesel powered all-wheel drive is available.

For the family man or woman (illuminated vanity mirror on the drivers side) the Captiva

is a natural candidate if you need just a little more extra without breaking the bank

completely.

It is available from Westvaal Steelpoort if you have R345100. Phone them at 013 230

9230.

We drive the

Chevrolet Captiva
