“They can do so by checking the figures ontheir water meter. If residents suspect thatthere might be a leak on the property theyshould turn off all water in the house andcheck thewatermeter to see if it reflectswa-ter use.“If the numbers continue to increase, thismeans that there is a leak on the property.This should allow them to attend to leaksbefore they incur any additional costs.”In response, Williams pointed out thatSonnenbergwas award councillor in the ar-ea at the time the problem started and wasinformed when it happened.Mayco member for finance, Ian Neilson,also defended the water bill by confirmingthat residents are responsible for ensuringtheir plumbing doesn’t leak.“If a resident cannot afford to pay theirbill, they should please approach their near-est municipal office, where a payment ar-rangement canbe createdbasedon theabili-ty to pay,” he said.“TheCitywill seek to address theproblemof underground leaks or leaks otherwise notvisible to the eye on private property in acaring andunderstandingmanner by grant-ing an “underground rebate” for bona fideclaimants of suchplumbing leaks,whohavemade appropriate application for a rebate,”said Neilson.“In these instances, theCitywill share thecosts on an equal basis with the consumer.To prevent the abuse of the rebate system,leaks on plumbing to convenience fixturessuch as irrigation systems and automaticfilling systems to ponds, pools, fountainsand similar, are excluded from the rebate.”Williams also pointed out that there wereregular problems with pipes bursting andflooding the area,meaning therewere ongo-ing problems with faulty pipes.Sonnenberg explained that he City en-deavours to fix leaks on its infrastructure
as soon as they are identified.“Residents can assist in this regard by re-porting any leaks to the City’s call centre on0860 103 089,” he said.“Furthermore, the City has committed it-self to upgrading and replacing 300kmofwa-ter pipes over the five-year period from 2012to 2017.“This financial year, R46 million is bud-geted for water pipe replacements. A totalof approximately 242km has been replacedsince the beginning of the 2011/12 financialyear.“Areas are considered for inclusion inthis process based on factors such as thehis-tory of faults, the age of the infrastructure,materials used, and the water pressure thepiping needs to withstand.”Williams is still not happy with the situa-
tion.She says she feels the City is making peo-ple pay for bad workmanship on their part.“We’ve lost a lot ofmoney throughno faultof our own,” she says.“The city should have some sort of warn-ing system inplacewhenyou start using thesame amount of water as a small village. Itshould be obvious to them but they do noth-ing so long as they can benefit.“In the meantime we are still sufferingunder the financial strain and I amsure thatthere are manymore who have suffered thesame fate.“There are so many modern applicationsthat they can use to help them to help us,andmost importantly play a part in the big-ger picture of saving water and not lettingit go to waste.”

“Immunisation is safe and effective.”This is the message of the faculty ofmedicine and health sciences of the
Univerity of Stellenbosch, Tygerberg, du-ringWorld ImmunisationWeek that startedon 24 April.
This faculty believes immunisation is oneof the most effective ways of reducing ill-ness and death in children, yet many chil-dren in SouthAfrica andAfrica do not bene-fit from this life-saving measure.
It is estimated that 1.5 million childrenacross the globe died from vaccine-preven-table diseases in 2013.
“Vaccines are different from medicines.Normally people only take medicine whenthey are sick, but you take vaccines to pre-vent disease in future,” explains ProfessorCharles Wiysonge, deputy director of thecentre for evidence-based health care atStellenbosch University.
Robust programmeHe says South Africa has one of the most
robust immunisation programmes on thecontinent, offering vaccinations against so-me of the common diseases responsible for
childhood deaths and disability, includingpolio, measles, TB, tetanus (an infectioncharacterised by muscle spasm), rotavirus(which causes diarrhoea in children) andpneumococcal disease (responsible forpneumonia, ear infections, meningitis andother diseases).
But despite the range of vaccines availa-ble, only about two-thirds of South Africanchildren are estimated to receive the full se-ries of immunisations. Although the natio-nal health department provides vaccinationcoverage figures of close to 100 percent, fre-quent outbreaks of vaccine-preventable di-sease (especiallymeasles) prove full covera-ge is not yet achieved.
Need for education“There is an urgent need for education on
immunisation among parents and healthcare workers. Ignorance around the impor-tance and safety of vaccines cause many pe-ople to forgo the opportunity to be vaccina-ted.
“Vaccines undergo strenuous testing andthere is a strong emphasis on safety,” saysWiysonge. “One can comfortably say all the
vaccines in our immunisation programmehave a very good safety profile.”
Safety testsHe says before any vaccine is made avai-
lable it undergoes several safety and effica-cy tests. The results are combined in a syste-matic review and is scrutinised by a WorldHealth Organisation (WHO) task group.
Wiysonge, who serves on theWHO’s stra-tegic advisory group of experts on immuni-sation as well as the African task force onimmunisation, says the low uptake of vacci-nes ismostly due to health care staff and pa-rents’ lack of knowledge about immunisati-on, human resources and financial con-straints, and systematic challenges suchpoor refrigeration facilities and availabili-ty.
“In line with the millennium develop-ment goals, we have to ensure our chil-dren’s right to health, development and sur-vival is respected, protected andpromoted,”says Wiysonge.
Research byWiysonge and colleagues hasfound promising strategies to improve thecountry’s immunisation programme.

babwiërs vrylik rond. Charles Mugomba enBrianMushambi verkoop laserskywe by dieduikweg in Ruyterwacht.
“Dit is hartseer wat in die res van die landaangaan,” sê Charles oor die geweldplegingweens vreemdelingehaat wat in sommigedele van die land opgevlam het.
Sithole vanMosambiek ismetmesse dood-gesteek, omdat hy nie ’n Suid-Afrikaner isnie. In Durban en elders in KwaZulu-Natalwoon mense in vlugtelingkampe om weg tekom van gewelddadige Suid-Afrikaners. InAlexandra is die weermag ingeroep om vre-de te bewaar.
“Ons het nog nie daardie soort geweld indie Wes-Kaap ervaar nie. Ek en my vrou blyal ’n jaar en viermaande in Suid-Afrika, om-dat daar nie werk en geld in ons tuisland isnie. As (Robert) Mugabe gaan, dan sal ek ditoorweeg om terug te gaan, want hy doen netskade aan die land. Ons is almal Afrikaneen moet soos broers en susters lewe,” sêCharles. Sy kinders woon steeds in Harareen dit is sy droom omweer eendag saammethulle onder een dak te woon. “’n Ouer wilnie graag sy kinders agterlaat nie, maar watkanonsdoen?Ek stuur elkemaandgeldhuistoe, want daar gaan niks aan nie. As mensenet verstaan ons is nie hier omdat ons hierwil wees nie, maar uit nood.”
Brian sê die swakheid van die Zimbabwie-
se dollar het hom vier jaar gelede hierheengebring. “Die beelde wat ons op televisiesien, is nie mooi nie en maak ons bang. Ekhoop maar die verdraagsaamheid wat onshier ervaar, sal hou want ons het hierheengekom vir groener weivelde, nie om mensese werk en goedere te steel nie,” sê Brian.
Hy sê dit is ’n hartseerdag as Afrikaneme-kaar begin uitmoor.

Thieves ransacked a hospice for termi-nally ill children less than two weeksafter it opened its doors in Stikland.
Iris House, a mobile care and support or-ganisation for children with alimited lifespan and their fam-ilies, officially opened its newpermanent hospice premiseson 14 April on the StiklandHospital grounds.The newly revamped build-
ing – a project founded withlove and serious tenacity bySue van der Linde – became acrime statistic last Wednes-day.TygerBurger had just that
morning visited the newpremises to interview Sue onIris House’s plans for thestructure she and her teamhad brought to reality.“We had a break in last night,” Sue in-
formedTygerBurger onThursdaymorning.She said the security company was very
quick to react, but they suffered some loss-es.“We only lost the Mac (computer), petty
cash tin and our brand new hard drive withall our video footage on –we are praying thecompany has a backup,” she said.“Who steals from a Children’s Hospice?”On TygerBurger’s visit, Sue provided a
tour of the premises, showing off the newlyfunctional spaces created during phase 1 oftheir huge clean-up operation.The centre opened to wide media interest
on 14April, with the Premier of theWesternCape, Helen Zille, unveiling the plaque.During our visit, Sue mentioned they
needed to build a wall – but for a differentreason at the time than security.
It appeared that some of the neighbourswho work with fork-lift trucks, had takento using the centre’s newly laid drivewayfor their own purposes.“The driveway isn’t made for that kind of
heavy-duty wear and tear. It’s meant as aquick and easily accessible way for parents
to roll up our children whoare inwheelchairs,” she said.“But now one of the neigh-
bours is using the drive wayto turn his big trucksaround.”The house, as it stands on
the tranquil grounds of thehospital as a former employ-ee residence, was in a state ofutter neglect when Sue firstlaid eyes on it.“We got lost on the hospital
grounds and ended up at(this) property. I knew wehad to have it, and we did.Eventually.”The end of phase 1 of the re-

men, Frieda a single, youngmo-ther and her daughter Eve.Frieda, torn between her ma-

Monique Hellenboerg, LaraCrowster, Josh Prinsloo, Celes-te Florence, Monique Septem-ber, and Juanita Domingo arepart of this production that hasalreadybeen receiving lots of at-tention on social media.Some of the cast started a dia-
ry relating to their characterson Facebook and some of thosepostings got some serious re-plies as they spoke about theabuse they were suffering, andin the case of the abuser, Rogerplayed by Josh Prinsloo, thethreats of abuse.Here is a posting from Moni-
que Hellenberg who plays thepart of Eva:“I woke up this morning on
the floor with a huge headache.What did I do last night? I re-member going to my cousin’s
wedding, and I had some drinksthere and then, but – not yester-day – I think I was at home ye-sterday. Yoh, I really cant re-member.Oh, wait – okay, uhm... I was
busy with the washing – then atill slip fell out of Rodger’s poc-ket – I saw a payment of R10 000he had made for those STUPIDspeakers he bought last week! Icouldn’t believe it! Especiallysince we don’t even haveenough food on the table.I asked him about it, and then
– I don’t know, I must have fal-len from shock or something,cos I just can’t recall, and I seethere is some blood on my nigh-ty.But – boys and their toys you
know. I guess he could havebought drugs or something forthat amount of money.Josh Prinsloo had threats of
posse’s hunting himdownwhenhis diary read:The first thing I did when Eve
got home fromher cousin’swed-ding in Atlantis was take her in-to the bathroom. I slowly tookoff her clothes and made herstand on the scale facing themirror. She’s learned not to pro-test when I look at her body.As I said it, a lone tear ran

Funerals can be costly affairs, warns Bell-ville South community worker DhakirChristians.He said over the past fewmonths a num-
ber of families have approached him forhelp after the death of a family member.“I had many people knocking at my door
to assist with the funeral for a loved one asthey do not have any type of funeral cover,”said Christians.“We then have to run around to raise
funds and beg to have the person buried ina dignified manner. I have learned thatmany people sign off their houses as securi-ty to pay for a funeral and in the end losetheir houses.”Christians said that he wants to make
people aware of the importance of funeralcover and updating one’s will.“In the unfortunate, but certain event of
death, your family should not have to wor-ry about the money for the funeral.“That is why we have decided to have fu-
neral coversmade available from the coun-cillor’s office to members of the public.“We also are also appealing to business
and those who can afford to, to makemonthly contributions to a funeral trustfund for destitute families.“Many undertakers have scrapped the
idea of a destitute burial, leaving familymembers in a confusing situation and un-certainty when somebody dies.”Information about funeral cover will be
made available at the ward councillor’s of-fice at the civic centre in Kasselsvlei Roadevery Tuesday and Thursday.The publicwill also be able to discuss and
draw up their last will and testament forfree.V For more information contact Christians on 074998 4997 or ward councillor Mercia Kleinsmith on076 011 3469.

Cape Town musician Nevil-le D has teamed up withtwo other South African
artists to sing out against xeno-phobia.Gospel singers Judith Sephu-
ma and Patrick Duncan were inCape Town last week to recordPray, which was released onWednesday 22April.Neville origi-
nally wrote thesong for Ju-dith, who re-corded it forher gospel al-bum The Expe-rience, but thistime aroundthe song featu-res three voi-ces.Neville ex-
plains theythought thesong was veryappropriatewhen lookingat the currentsituation inSouth Africawith regards torecent xeno-phobic attacks.“It’s just really a prayer,” he
says, adding: “I don’t care whoyou pray to.” He adds that ofcourse there’smore to fixing thesituation than praying, but thethree believe it’s a good place tostart.“It’s where we get our wis-
dom,” and from there they goout and dowhat we can do in ac-tion.The reason Neville asked Pa-
trick and Judith to record thissingle is because the three ofthem have performed extensi-vely all over Africa.“As soon as it started, we real-
ly felt it,” he says, again refer-ring to the xenophobic attacksthat have been making headli-nes recently.Withmany friends fromother
African countries, xenophobiais an issue that hits close to ho-me, for all three singers, but itwould be something they feltstrongly about even if they
didn’t have friends north of theborder.“Just based on the fact they
are human beings, our bro-thers,we shouldbedoing somet-hing.”Patrick, Judith and Neville
recorded the single and the mu-sic video with the help of An-drew and Jeremy Viljoen fromDigital Forest Studios, TimLengfeld from TL Mastering,
WOW TV, whodid the videorecordings, andsponsors Eu-clid Jacobs andMark Jackson.“Everybody
came on board,free of charge,just saying: ‘Wewant to be apart of this’.”Pray was re-
leased as a mu-sic video on so-cial media plat-forms and isbeing sampledon local radiostations. Nevil-le says therehas been a lot ofinterest fromtelevision stati-ons to broad-cast the music
video and while he can’t con-firm who will pick it up, DStv’sFaith Broadcast Network alrea-dy aired the song on Sunday 26April.Neville says they decided to
record the single because they“just wanted to do something”.They want to encourage otherartists from all over the worldto add their voice to something.“There’s a lot of negativity all
over the world as far as SouthAfrica is concerned and we feltlike we wanted to show anotherside of South Africa.”He says he doesn’t want the
world to look at our country andsay: “They killed our people andnobody said anything.”Pray is available for downlo-
ad from digital stores like iTu-nes and Amazon.V Visit Neville’s Facebook page atwww.facebook.com/MR.NEVILLE.D orTwitter profile at @NevilleDMusic tohear the song.

Durbanville-Bellville se senior rugbyspan het’n duur prys betaal vir sy triomf in die onlang-se Gemeenskapsbeker-kompetisie.
As gevolg van ’n hele rits beserings wat inRustenburg opgedoen is, moes die Durbies dieUniversiteit van Kaapstad verlede week met’n erg uitgedunde span aandurf.
Die gevolg was ’n naelskraapse nederlaagvan 20-25 in Durbell se eerste superliga-krag-meting hierdie seisoen. Die algemene verwag-ting is dat Durbell, Hamiltons en Valsbaai dienie-universitêre klubs is wat vanjaar die bestein die superliga sal vaar, om daarmee die WP-verteenwoordiger in volgende jaar se Ge-meenskapsbeker-kompetisie te wees.
Die Durbies het egter kennis geneem vanValsbaai se verrassende sege oor die Maties,die WP se verdedigende kampioen. In middel-Mei kom Durbell teen dié Valsbaaispan testaan in ’n wedstryd wat uiteindelik deurslag-gewend kan wees. – (Sarel Burger)
