UWC PROTESTS: STUDENTS TURN BACKS ON INSTIGATORS

‘Why burn a piano?’GARY VAN DYK

@gvdcapejazz

Has #feesmustfall been hijacked?This is the question that many stu-

dents from the University of the West-ernCape (UWC)and theCapePeninsulaUni-versity of Technology (CPUT) are askingafter protests turned violent, leaving bothcampuses in disarray with damage to build-ings and interruptions to exams.

Brigadier Vincent Beaton, commander ofthe Blue Downs cluster, confirmed that fivestudents from UWC were arrested for as-sault and others for public violence earlierthis week.

Chaos erupted last Wednesday whengroups of “students” escalated the up to thenpeaceful protests to going on the rampage onthe campus. During one of these incidentsa medic from the university, who attemptedto retrieve a fire extinguisher,was assaulted

by protesting students.After the arrest the students went on the

rampage attacking security staff withstones, building barricades and burningequipment and furniture.

Running battles between students and po-lice and security ensued and at 17:00 severaluniversity properties were set alight.

At 18:30 policeused stungrenades and rub-ber bullets after several buildings on cam-pus were set alight, including administra-

tion, residences and the main hall.Theyarrested five students for assault and

eleven students aged between 19 and 28 forcharges of public violence.

On Monday morning more than 400 stu-dents wrote exams at an off-campus locationbut the morning started off with the settingalight of the Reslife building and the securi-ty booths outside the Kovacs building, theuniversity said in a media statement.

Three protesterswere arrested by thepolice after they were caught at theReslife building.“Theuniversity condemns these at-

tacks and reiterates its call for pro-testers to desist fromcommitting actsof violence, vandalism, intimidationand arson,” read the statement.“The security threat to students

and staff in addition to the damage ofproperty remains a concern for theuniversity. UWC will continue tomonitor the situation with the assist-ance of SAPS, andwill continue to en-gage with stakeholders in an effort tofind solutions to the current challen-ges.”On Friday TygerBurgermet with a

group of disgruntled students whosuspected that these disruptionswere caused by outsiders or studentswho had not prepared for their ex-ams.A group representative that did not

want to be named, said many of themwere surprised at these latest inci-dents because it was not called for bythemain organisers of the #feesmust-fall campaign.“As students we agree with the

campaign to make education availa-ble to all, and every meeting we haveattended stressed the importance ofpeaceful protest,” she said.“What happened last week was un-

forgivable for the success of this cam-paign. What does burning a beautifulpiano have to do with fees? We sawit happen – why?“Many of us (there were about 15

students in the group thatmet) are in-volved with many activities on cam-pus and know quite a lot of studentsandwe spotted plenty of strange facesamong the protesters.“I don’t like to make assumptions,

but there were also some studentsthat we know have not been keepingup with their studies – were they theinstigators?“We know that the management is

trying to sort out the situation, butmeanwhile there are students whoare suffering because their lives areput onhold.What about those in theirfinal years; the students from out oftown who have made travel plans?“I think as students we have done

a good thing to start this campaignbut we must not allow it to be hi-jacked.”

The Tygerberg Hospice is hostingtheir heartwarming annual “Tree ofLights” event again.

Representatives of different caregroups marched through Glenlily inParowWest on 14 November – not on-

ly to protest against drug houses and deal-ers, but also to make their voices heardabout a lack of police support.The grouponly amounted to about 35 peo-

ple, but consisted of members of the UDM,Age in Action, Parow Concerned Resi-dents, Pacrif neighbourhood watch, ParowValley neighbourhood watch and Pagad.“We want people to know that we are

tired of crime, we are tired of seeing ourchildren die of drugs andwe are tired of theuseless police in Parow,” says David Gow,a resident ofGlenlily andmember of Pagad.Ricardo Adonis, vice chairperson of the

new Pacrif neighbourhood watch, says hisgroup joined the march as they are desper-ate for support from the police.“They do not respond to us.We do not get

the assistance that was agreed upon. Theyare supposed to send a vehicle to patrolwith us, but they never do. Sometimes ittakes them two or three hours before theyrespond to a call from us,” he says.“We gather a lot of data about the weekly

alerts and we will phone them with infor-mation, but often there is no response.”Adonis says the watch understands that

there is a profiling process, “but once analert is out, that process has been done. Wewant answers about what is happening tocases,” he says.“We have pictures of policemen in uni-

form going into drug houses on their own,coming out again after only a few minutes.If they are on patrol, they are supposed tobe a pair. What are they doing in there?”He says in Parow Street alone there are

six houses where drug dealings are goingon. He claims many of these houses belongto one man and that the police know thisbut do not act on the information.He says neighbourhood watches are pa-

trolling every night, but feel they cannotmake headway without proper support.Sherm Arendse, one of the Concerned

Residents of Parow, spoke to the crowd thatturned up for the march before they tookto the streets followed by two police vehi-cles and traffic services.“Parow clinic, which is a place for the

community,wasburgled recently. TheHer-nus Kriel old age home was robbed lastweek. Awomanwas the victim of an armedrobbery in Van Eyssen Street. Gangstersand criminals are openly waiting for theirvictims. Our future leaders are hooked ondrugs. This is the kind of dramawewitnessevery day. We are concerned for the agedand the vulnerable,” she said and thenthanked the police for accompanying them.“We rarely see you, as you are always

standing downat someaccident and cannotattend our calls,” she told them.“We have seen success with the small

amount of people we have had in the past,”Abdus Salaam from Pagad told the march-ers. “Now we need to mobilise more peopleto eradicate the problem.”

@gvdcapejazz

Youth inBishopLavis are on amissionto make the area safer and motivateothers to achieve their positive po-

tential.A safety assessment workshop for the

Bishop Lavis Urban Node upgrade projectby the City of Cape Town was held at theJohn Ramsay High School at the end of Oc-tober, and processes have been put in placefor young people to make a bigger impactin the future of the area.Project steering committee member Lee

Chalklen said learners from John Ramsayand Bishop Lavis High attended with themain aim of learning about the areathrough the eyes of the youth and how theywere affected by crime and violence.“Another important discussion was to

hear what they think can be done to pre-vent crime and violence, as well as whatimprovements they would like to see in es-pecially the town centre, so that everyonefeels safe to use it,” he said.He explained that representatives of the

City of Cape Town informed the youthabout the urban node upgrade after whichit was their turn to workshop their needs.“They were divided into groups where

they had to discuss issues that concernedthem in their community.“They said gangsterismwas amajor con-

cern for them and drug abuse was also amajor concern with children as young assix already involved.“This year alone already 60 cases of

smoking dagga were reported at schoolsand this was what most youths at localschools were using. At one school a Grade3 learner was caught with a bottle of alco-hol.”One of the learners who did not want to

be named, explained that gangsterism wasone of the biggest problems.

“Our youths are targeted by older gangmembers to start selling (drugs) at schooland eventually join the gangs,” she said.“Other reasons why the children turn to

gangs are because of a lack of attention fromparents, peer pressure as well as the highrate of poverty and unemployment.“They are also attracted by the need for

money with illiteracy and boredom alsoplaying a part in them joining gangs andstarting to take drugs.”The participants were also asked to point

outwhich areaswere regarded as dangerousfor robberies and gang activity.During an exercise with a map of the area

it was revealed that Vaal and Pink flats,Bream Way, Valhalla Park, Malawi camp,DieBult/Drakenstein circle, SwanRoad andthe corner of Green Street and Sky Road,were the areas with the most problems.They also highlighted that robberies were

rife in the Station Road, Railway AvenueandMaitland Road areas during peak times.Chalklen added that looking at solutions

they wanted more education around drugsand gangsterism with the youth being madeaware of the dangers from a young age.“They also feel that there should be com-

munity involvement with more sporting ac-tivities and after-school activities available.“A youth/multi-purpose centre, including

a swimming pool, is needed and there is aneed formore security andpolicevisibility.”As a result of this workshop three repre-

sentatives were chosen to meet with Chalk-len on a regular basis. “They will look at dif-ferent means and ways to get the youth ac-tive and off the streets,” said Chalklen.“These three will serve as a link between

the youth, the steering committee and theCity of Cape Town to ensure that the up-grades planned for Bishop Lavis will caterfor the youth and their needs as they are thefuture leaders of tomorrow.”V For more information Lee Chalklen can be contact­ed on 074 817 4855 or 021 659 5696.

November is nasionale Diabetes-bewust-heidsmaand. Ter ondersteuning hiervan kanmense op Maandag 23 November ’n gratisbloedglukose-vingerpriktoets en ’n bloed-druktoets byMediclinic Cape Gate laat doen.Die toetse neem slegs twee minute elk.Volgens ’n woordvoerder van Mediclinic

kan ’n mens die risiko om diabetes te kry,verlaag deur daagliks 2 km te stap, twee han-de vol amandels te eet en die twee toetse telaat doen om jou risikovlakke te bepaal.“Daar is ’n geweldige toename in die getal

mense by wie tipe 2-diabetes gediagnoseerword – ’n toestand wat hoofsaaklik gekoppelword aan leefstylkeuses en die obesiteit-epi-demie oor die wêreld heen.Daar word bereken dat 347 miljoen mense

wêreldwyd diabetes het, van wie 90% tipe2-diabetes het. Op eie bodem het 3,5 miljoen

Suid-Afrikaners – ongeveer 6%vandiebevol-king – tipe 1- of tipe 2-diabetes.In baie gevalle word die siekte eers gedia-

gnoseer wanneer komplikasies ontstaan.Diekomplikasies vandiabetes is ernstig en

Road deaths and injuries are sudden,violent and traumatic events tearingfamilies and communities apart.

The overall scale and the individual dev-astation caused by road deaths and injuriesand its impact upon families and communi-ties, will be the main focus on Sunday,when minister of transport Dipuo Petersvisits Cape Town to commemorate WorldDay of Remembrance (WDR).This global United Nations commemora-

tion takes place on the third Sunday of No-vember every year to remember the morethan a million of people who have beenkilled and injured on the world’s roads.Peters will be joined by local community

leaders, provincialMECs, law enforcementagencies, public transport organisations aswell as members of the community at Man-dela Park Stadium on Sunday.According to statistics provided by Glob-

al Road Safety Partnership South Africa(GRSP), vehicle collisions represent theleading cause of crash fatalities across theglobe, accounting for nearly 1,3 milliondeaths and approximately 50 million non-fatal injuries per year.“Thismakes road crashes one of themost

significant contemporary public healthchallenges. More than 90% of global deathsfrom road traffic injuries occur in low andmiddle-income countries like South Afri-ca,” says GRSP spokesperson RaushanaArnold.The scourge of road traffic injuries and

fatalities is particularly worrisome in theAfrica region, where South Africa hassome of the highest fatality rates in theworld – 31,9 deaths per 100 000 per year.“While stating the global statistics and

putting the cost of traffic crashes in eco-nomic terms are important, often thismasks the human suffering endured byfamilies and communities as a result ofroad traffic crashes. We tend to forget thatbehind each statistic are families and com-munities torn apart as a result.“WDR is also a day on which we thank

the emergency services and reflect on theburden and cost of this daily continuingdisaster to families, communities andcountries, as well as on ways to halt it.“The impact is long-lasting; often perma-

nent. The distress experienced by this hugenumber of people is all the greater becausemany of the victims are young, many of thecrashes could and should have been pre-vented, and also because government’s andsociety’s response to road deaths and inju-ry and to bereaved and injured victims isoften inadequate, unsympathetic and inap-propriate to a loss of life or quality of life.”According to Arnold, WDR is intended to

respond to the need of crash victims forpublic recognition of their loss.

GARY VAN DYK@gvdcapejazz

The festive season in the Cape has manymusical traditions, but when it comesto Christmas the sacred songs of the

Christmas band will always be welcomed.In Elsies River the Perseverance Christ-

mas band has been keeping this traditionalive since 1969 and still growing to give an-other generation the gift of music.JadeAdams is the group’s public relations

officer and very proud of their activities.“Most of our founder members have al-

ready passed on, but they would be proud ofhowwe’rekeeping their aimsalive,” he said.

“Their primary goal was to focus on thedevelopment ofmusic in the immediate com-munity of Elsies River and its surroundings.

“In the past our communities relied on the

education system for our musicians, but themusic education programmes in our schoolswere stopped by the department of educa-tion a long time ago.“In 1996wemade a decision to react to this

gap and a free structured music teachingprogramme was established. Surprisingly14newyoungmusiciansgraduated fromthisfirst programme during that first year.”Since 1996 over 500 learners have regis-

tered with the music teaching programme.In the process several churches and otherChristmas bands have benefited hugelyfrom the programme.The Christmas concert will be held at the

Rapha Pentecostal Church in Elsies Riverstarting at 17:00 with tickets costing R50.V For more information and booking Adams can becontacted on 061 169 1023 or email another­adams@gmail.com.

An organisation in Elsies River is level-ling the playing fields for future leaders.On Saturday 7November the Equilibri-

um All Star Leadership Academy hostedtheir annual graduation ceremony withthe theme Reclaiming our youth as per-sons of worth, at the I-Can centre.Based at The Range High School the

academy is an after school leadership de-velopment programme.

Director of the NGO, Yolande Groep,explained they host a four-year pro-gramme for youth to encourage personaldiscovery and growth, self-reliance, per-severance, responsibility, service to thecommunity and adventurous journeys.

“We are in partnership with the Presi-dent’s Award, which is a youth empower-ment programme with international rec-ognition. The award programme is a val-uable initiative to nurture and developcapacity in our young people. It is a direct

response to the many challenges that ouryouth faces, encouraging activities andattitudes that serve to empower youngpeople,” she said.

This year the event was well supportedby proud parents, dignitaries and com-munity members.

They were also motivated by guestspeaker Dr Reinette Minnies, who grewup on the streets of Matroosfontein butpersevered the same gang infested envi-ronment that many youth are exposed to.

She was the appropriate role-model forthe graduates as she spoke about thehardships and sacrifices that she had tomake to fulfil her dream of becoming amedical doctor, and the importance of set-ting positive goals for yourself.“Equilibrium’s vision is to take com-

munities from ‘chains to change’ throughinspiring, influencing, empowering themand to assist them to implement theirnewly learnt skills,” concluded Groep.V For more information about activities at theacademy call 021 931 7745 during office hours.

Playing fields levelled for future leaders

Celebrating the All Star graduation were, from left, Elroy Duckitt (founder of the academy),Tammeryne Mpasa (gold graduate), Glennecia Muller (gold graduate), Glenda Muller(parent), Neldene Kleinsmidt, Kristen Manus (gold graduate), Charl Manus (parent), andWhidney Prins (vice chairperson of Equilibrium). Kristin Manus and Glennecia Mullerreceived certificates of merit for all of their subjects in Grade 12.

SOCCER: LOCAL TEAM GAINING GROUND

Milano staysin touchJOSEPH PILLAY

Milano United is slowly but surelygaining ground at the top of Safa’sABCMotsepe Second League compe-

tition. The team seems to be well on tracktokeep in touchwith the topdogs by the timeChristmas comes.Desmond Crowie, Milano’s coach, saw his

team fight off the challenges of FC CapeTown’s Rebels team to win 3-1 in GrassyPark over the weekend.The result means that Crowie’s charges

now boast 10 points (three wins and a draw,with one loss) after five league outings.The Grassy Park team occupies third

place on the log – 1 point behind defendingchampion Glendene United (11 points) and5 points behind log leader Steenberg United(15 points), who has already played sixleague games this season.Nevertheless, Wade Crowie, son of former

PSL player and star coach Duncan Crowie

(now a youth coach at Ajax Cape Town), putin an excellent display to showed great expe-rience on the field to place Milano United ina winning position, scoring off his first twoshots at goal.The visitors then reduced the deficit, but

RonwinGeorgehadotherplans and restoredMilano’s two-goal lead late in the secondhalfwith a well-taken goal of his own to securea 3-1 win for his team.
