THE BIG HARTED MAN IN MATLOSANA 

The exciting “Water, Wings and Wheels” festival will be hosted at the Water Paradise, Klerksdorp Dam on 18 & 19 October.  The festival promises to be exciting and filled with fun like previous years.  

The fun-filled day will benefit the underprivileged children and elderly people of the Kosh area.  The day will have a host of activities that will not only entertain, but also give the children the opportunity to experience trips in a boat, 4x4 vehicle, helicopter and much more.

All funds raised by donations and entry or activity fees will be donated to organizations in the Kosh area. 

For the rugby enthusiasts a big screen TV sponsored by Rio Casino and beer tents will be available to watch the rugby final - so no excuses for not attending the festival. 

Read the Yourcity next week for more information on the happenings of the festival.  For enquiries contact Elmarie of Kwikfit 018 462 4160.

YourProfile 

Name: Anthony Edwards

Star Sign: Sagittarius

Birthday: Is this really necessary, 27 November 1968

Occupation: Executive Head  St Conrad's College 

When I look into the mirror every morning I think: Wow, how you've aged!! 

My favourite people in the world are: Definitely my family 

My favourite quote is: 'Success is not final, failure is not fatal: It is the courage to continue that counts' (Winston Churchill) 

'What we are is God's gift to us, what we become is our gift to God' (Eleanor Powell) 

I enjoy speaking to and interacting with people with a good sense of humour. Laughter, to me, is a huge stress reliever and is heavily underrated. Surrounding myself with humerous people and activities with some form of humorous element is important to me, because I often need something to   make me laugh in my line of work. 

The greatest lesson life has taught me so far is: PERSEVERENCE!!

If you can find a path without obstacles, it probably doesn't lead anywhere. The only way to face up to challenges and obstacles is through faith and perseverance. I've learnt that when things go wrong, as they inevitably do at various times of our lives, we need to persevere, endure and never quit. Remembering also that without faith you can do nothing, but with faith, all things are possible, enabling you never to submit.  

I'll do almost anything for:

     1) More quality time with my family

    2) Our crime and violence in our country to   

         subside or to be severly  curtailed 

When I get stressed I am most likely to throw my: LAPTOP out a window. 

I want my tombstone to read: ' So much to do, so little done' (Cecil J. Rhodes)

'The best is yet to come' (Frank Sinatra) 

I wouldn't mind being stuck in an elevator with: Jessica Alba! No seriously, I would love to have a long conversation with either Nelson Mandela or Hansie Cronje 

In three words I am: Passionate, approachable and enthusiastic! 

If I had a million rand to spare I would: First of all, a million wouldn't be enough to cover all of my debt, you only need to ask my wife! (ha, ha!) But, seriously, I'd like to take my family on a world ocean cruise. The rest I'd use to supplement our school's annual budget (ha, ha!)

I live in Klerksdorp because: I believe it's a great place for my children to be schooled and to grow up, away from the evils of city life. 

Peak hour traffic is also something I certainly don't need to further boost my already high stress levels.

 The first thing I would save from a house fire is: Obviously I'd try and save any people and animals in the house at the time. But, if there are no living occupants in the house at the time, I'd look for my golf clubs. 

My nickname is: Never hear the end of this one at the school, but here goes: 'Oudstes', given to me by my two young heads of school, who are not much younger than what I am. 

I love my job because: …More than any other occupation the rewards in education are far greater because you are working with children who could possibly be future leaders and decision makers or simply just solid citizens.

An education plays an immense role in the development of a child and, depending on how thoroughly it gets executed, an individual can go on to reach great success according to his/her abilities and potential.  

This is the power, we as educators have in our hands. Moulding young lives is an experience which is exceptionally rewarding, the more effort and passion you show, the more you receive in return. 

These rewards aren't based on financial gain, but the fulfilment of knowing that you've played a monumental role in the formation of a child's mind and spiritual and physical development, and that this inevitably leads to the preparedness of the young adult to successfully face the complications and evils of society.  

This is something I'm passionate about, and wouldn't change for the world. 

THE BIG HARTED MAN IN MATLOSANA 

- Written by:  Thulisile Xwazi 

Kwababamswazi Herbal shop, this is where you would find a man with a big heart.  Harry Kenny is his real name.  Babamswazi as he is popularly known for, is one man who has contributed continuously to our community in many ways.  He has created jobs for previously disadvantaged people; he has helped a number of small businesses and also helped in sports development within the Kosh area.  He has done all this on his own without any sponsors, but with much love for his people. 

Harry Kenny aka Babamswazi has been the back bone of boxing in Matlosana since 2002; he has sponsored boxing and has helped to produce champions in our region.  We, as Yourcity, took the time to acknowledge this unrecognized community business who is BABAMSWAZI. 

Kenny was born in Witbank which is now known as Malahlemi.  He did his lower education in Swaziland (He had to study in Swaziland due to the education level) He then came back to Johannesburg and studied boilermaking.  

 While he was advancing in his boilermaking he had an ancestral calling and responded to traditional healing as a herbalist. He got a new name which is the popular BABAMSWAZI which has become the emblem of his shop.

After that he came back to Klerksdorp and stayed in Alabama and started consulting(Traditional Surgeon) in a back-room. The rest is history.  He now has herbal shops around Matlosana. He has experienced poverty himself and because of this he began to help people with disadvantaged backgrounds in townships.   

He has helped others to start their own small business'. A few of them are namely: Tdxwazi Architectural Services, Senzo Staff Holding and Hiring, Mnandi Tea, Mastermind, Toro Yabatho Construction and a number of others. As if this was not enough he got involved in boxing developing in townships.  We need to recognize these people within our society.

According to Babamswazi he desires to help as many as he can. 

If he had financial support he would be able to create a better life for 'our people'.  He depends only on his herbal shops; if he could get more support he would be able to change more lives.

LIFE AND TIMES WITH COLLIN 

Freedom of Thought 

Ever thought about a time when you were not allowed to say what you think?  Those of us who grew up during the apartheid era surely can.  Criticising the state and its main agent, the Government, was a definite no-no.  And that was not so long ago.  Throughout recorded history there have been numerous attempts at trying to suppress man's thought processes.   

This week I thought of looking at this so-called freedom of thought. 

The working of the mind is limited only by the bounds of experience and the power of imagination.  But the liberty afforded by private thinking is of little value if it cannot be communicated to others.  What use is it if a man's thinking leads him to call in question ideas and customs which regulate his environment, and he is not allowed to express those concerns?  Difficult as it may seem there are many today who are still not free to express their thoughts.  And in this sense freedom of thought includes freedom of speech.  And here I am not necessarily referring only to political freedom of speech;  I am referring to that freedom, that liberty, which education and economic upliftment bring.  The ability to argue intellectually on a particular matter without undue prejudicial emotion, is possibly an example.

Freedom of thought is rather flippantly taken as a matter of course and a simple thing.  A natural right given freely to all.  Yet it is a relatively recent concept with its attainment been acquired with the blood of others. 

Throughout the ages human societies have been generally opposed to the freedom of thought or more cogently, to new ideas.  This is so because the average brain is naturally lazy and likes the line of least resistance, with the mortal world of the ordinary man consisting of beliefs which he has accepted without question.  And those beliefs are the totem around which he dances;  and nothing must upset the established order of his familiar world.  Any new idea is seen as anathema and any entertainment will require a rewiring of his thought processes.  This will require energy expenditure.  Rather let the status quo remain.  'It's always been done like this', is the mantra.  And to a greater or lesser extent we all suffer from this malaise.  Remember that young university graduate who started at your firm some years back?  Still wet behind the ears, he arrived at the first staff meeting and nervously and hesitantly he raised his hand as if to ask a question.  Everyone was suddenly riveted to this youngster.  Here, without giving the kid a chance, was something that would have to be snuffed out.  'Can't have a kid telling old hands like us what to do.'  Maybe he just wanted to go to the toilet.  Whatever, the emotional innuendo was quite palpable, and he knew exactly where he slotted into the business hierarchy.  'Won't be having anymore tripe from him anymore, will we?'  So in an almost unobtrusive way, we, due to our apathy, suppress freedom of thought;  and it didn't take a piece of government legislation to achieve that either. 

And that, I am afraid, is how we douse out future lights.  Lights that may well have illuminated our way as well. 

In doing some background reading for this article there was an incredible amount of verbiage relative to religion.  In times gone by social structures were held together by priests.  Priests who by and large had a little more education than their flock.  'A little education', as the saying goes, 'is a dangerous thing'.  Anything that was seen as criticism of the established religious order was impious and dealt with in the most severe manner.  Being burnt at the stake was not uncommon and no doubt served as a lesson to others to toe-the-line.  By so doing people were commanded without question, to accept the authority of the church.  Further, as most people were illiterate, they had to accept the priest's interpretation of the written word. 

This was the time of the Dark Ages when reason was in prison.  Where dialectic debate was not tolerated.  Where a hermeneutic interpretation of the Bible was definitely not on.

It was only as late as the 18th century that a European intellectual movement known as the Enlightenment started gaining momentum, and during which time reason was slowly starting to be set free.  A time where an opposing idea or view might very well have been better. 

It will be a sad day indeed if the democracy that we now enjoy was ever taken away from us. 

But, we the people, are largely responsible for the way we are governed.  We need to be careful in that sometimes we get what we didn't ask for.  Because we were too afraid to stick up our hands! 

Chat again next week.

Traditional dance helps discipline youth 

Klerksdorp - Traditional dance music has teaches discipline according youth attending this year's Heritage Day event held in Klerksdorp.

Tom Moses, 17, of Jourbeton of Matlosane local Municipality is from a cultural group called Matlosana performing arts. He told BuaNews that being part of the group has afforded him the opportunity to learn a lot about his culture which he did not understand before. "This traditional dancer group that we started in 2002 has taught me a lot about my culture as a Zulu boy, I did not understand a lot of things about my culture and heritage, most importantly it has taught me a lot about how to be disciplined," he said. Speaking at the event held Wednesday, North West Premier Edna Molewa encouraged members of the community to support young people who are participating in traditional dance and music. "We have a lot of talent in our young people and it's good that today I have seen a lot of them participating in the traditional dance and music.

"I would like to make a special plea to many parents who are gathered here to support our young people who are taking part in preserving our traditional dance and music," she said.

Mr Moses added that it is through his dance group that he understood the importance of attending this year's cultural event.

"I did not see the importance of attending events of this nature before and I am glad that now I do understand the significance of this day.

"I am here most importantly to celebrate and learn more about the heritage and culture of our country," he said. Thandiwe Boko, 40, of the Wolmaransstad in the Maquassi Hills Local Municipality told BuaNews that it was important for young people to be involved in cultural dance groups.

"In our municipality we have started initiated a cultural group called Tswelelang Youth Cast. We have more than 20 young people participating in this group and they are here today to perform in today's event," she said.

She highlighted that many of the youth participating in their group do not only learn about the cultural dance but also ask many questions regarding the history and the culture of various communities. “Traditional dance music in our municipality has created a platform for young people to not only dance to the music but to learn more about our heritage. "I trust that if more young people can participate and support the traditional dance music a lot of people will have respect and discipline in the communities," she said. - BuaNews

EK WIL LEWE VIR MôRE 

Hugo Niewoudt het op 3 Oktober by Mayfair Village opgetree en die gehoor omtrent vermaak met sy goue stem.  Wat heel eerste in die kol tref is Hugo se unieke en suiwer stemkwaliteit wat beslis die vermoë het om jou hartsnare te karnuffel.  Hy is die nuwe naam op almal se lippe.  Liedjies soos “Ek wil lewe vir more” en “As jy by my bly” is gesing  en kon jy hoor sy liefde vir die lewe en sy liefde vir musiek.  Hy het tans 'n cd gemaak en is 'n heerlike lekkerte om na te luister.  Soos 'n goeie speserymengsel, sorg Hugo dat die album 'n proe-van-die en 'n-leksel-van-daai bevat en die eindresultaat is 'n aangename en delikate pot-pouri van gevoelvolle snitte, gewaarborg om in elkeen se smaak te val.  Met sy grootword-wortels letterlik regoor die land, span Hugo deesdae sy musikale

sambreel vanuit die skone Kaap. Persoonlik streef hy na die beste ... en met hierdie album bewys hy dat hy een van die bestes ís. Die aantreklike man het beslis die helepakket!

A Re Ageng Mzansi House Built responds to situations of needy military veterans 

The North West Department of Developmental Local Government and Housing rounded off the National Housing Week which commenced on the 29 September 2008 by building Breaking New Ground (BNG) houses for military veterans in Motlhabeng and Tloung villages on Monday 6 October 2008. The event coincided with United Nations (UN) Habitat Day to profile the achievements made in providing houses to communities as well as highlight the challenges.

The Provincial MEC for Developmental Local Government and Housing, Howard Yawa and the Executive Mayor of Mafikeng, Councillor Mosa Sejosingoe led three teams of volunteers in constructing three 45 square meters BNG houses, i.e. two for military veterans and one emergency house for a pensioner. In line with new Provincial norms and standards, the houses are bigger than the initial 40 square meters RDP low-cost houses.

"I am happy to be one of the first beneficiaries of the Military Veteran Housing Assistance Programme. The house will create enough living space for me and my family" said Steven Lesole (45) from Motlhabeng village. He is staying with his pensioned parents, ten other unemployed siblings and several grandchildren. The Lesole family has lived in the  village since 1992. 

Another beneficiary of the programme, father of two, Ntoae Segale of Tloung village also shared the excitement. "I am very happy that I will have a house of my own" said 43 years old Segale. 

The beneficiary of the emergency housing scheme, Nyosi "Mahlathini" Herman Njovu, (59) has had to vacate his wife and seven children from the mud house in which they lived in because it could collapse at any time .Njovu who has lived in Magogoe village for 14 years said he was happy that government has responded to his situation.

 Volunteers participants included representatives of the UN Habitat, the North West Ex-Combatants Trust, the Provincial Chapter of Umkhonto We Sizwe Military Veterans Association, The Chairperson and CEO of Botshelo Water Board, Councillors of Mafikeng Local Municipality, Members of Are Ageng Mzansi Industrial theatre cast, local celebrities, Community Development Workers, officials of the National Department of Housing, the Provincial Department of Local Government and Housing, Mafikeng Local Municipality and journalists from community media.

Aardklop “Klopped” again 

Aardklop is an annual top quality national arts festival that contributes to the celebration and development of South African arts in general by creating the opportunity for upcoming talent to perform with established artists in front of existing and new audiences. Aardklop targets the whole family. Arts enthusiasts of all ages, particularly children, enjoy special attention. Aardklop appeals to a large market by distinguishing itself from other festivals by focusing on quality productions delivered to the whole community. Thanks to the town's beautiful surroundings and infrastructure, Potchefstroom is the perfect venue for Aardklop.

After a successful debut in 1998, Aardklop fulfilled a need for an arts festival in the north of South Africa because it realized that many patrons from other regions lived too far away to attend the Cape- based festivals. More than 25,000 people visited Potchefstroom for the first festival in 1998. The number of visitors escalated to approximately 60,000 in 2000, and exceeding all expectations, 2004 yielded roughly 140,000 visitors.

African Teen Foundation 

Written by Tuli Xwazi 

This name has become popular in Matlosana, especially in Muzimuhle, Kanana and in the Bosasa Juvenile Prison.  In the old housing building in Umuzimuhle this is where you will find the NGO Project.  Established in 2005 it was officially registered and launched in 2006  Multi cultural Group. 

Their mission and vision is to support efforts to ensure fundamental rights and educational opportunities for children.  They look for defined points where they can make a difference in bringing about changes that can improve the lives of countless children.

They have successfully worked with SGB's and also managed to involve parents in their children's education, working hand in hand with school governing  bodies to create a safe atmosphere for both educators and learners.

They started a campaign to stop crime, teenage pregnancy and to have an HIV free generation both at school and within the community They worked hand in hand with the SAPS and churches.  They attend to scholars who come to their offices to be helped with homework and life skill sessions on a daily basis. They also take care of orphans who are put in care of foster parents seeing that they get fed, clothed and schooled. 

They are also involved in Bosasa as a spiritual support and counseling.

The project is the missing link that was needed in our communities. African Teen Foundation has made it happen.   

AngloGold assisted them by donating wheelchairs, blankets and the old housing building to the foundation.   

Any individual or company who would like to support them with this upliftment in our community can contact Mr. Kgosi Thulo at 073 308 2411 / 073 630 8522. 

JONGBOERE ONTVANG POSITIEWE BOODSKAP

Sowat 300 jongboere uit die Vrystaat en die Noordwes Provinsie het op 18 September op NAMPO Park byeengekom vir die vyfde Senwes Jongboer Toekomsfokusdag. Sprekers tydens die dag het gefokus op die impak van die ekonomie en politieke toestande op landbou, maar met 'n sentrale boodskap van positiwiteit en geleenthede wat vir jongboere bestaan. 

Volgens die voorsitter van Vrystaat Landbou se jongboervereniging, Hentie Bothma, gee dit 'n mens hoop dat instansies en landboubesighede soos Senwes in jongboere wil belê. “Tegniese vooruitgang en bemarkingsopsies gee ons as jongboere hoop vir die toekoms,” het hy gesê.

Gawie Bothma, voorsitter van die Agri NW jongboere, het hierby aangesluit deur te sê dat Suid-Afrika 'n ongelooflike land is wat baie bied aan die jongboer. “Ons het 'n plig om hier te bly en hierop voort te bou,” aldus Gawie. 

Mnr Harald Pakendorf, 'n bekende politieke ontleder, het as gasspreker opgetree. Hy het verwys na die onstuimige ekonomiese siklus wat wêreldwyd heers en die onafwendbare effek daarvan op die plaaslike ekonomie. Die magstryd in die regerende party van die land veroorsaak tans 'n stormagtige politieke omstandighede, maar die stille stem van redelikheid behoort steeds te seëvier. Ten opsigte van 'n toekoms in boerdery, het hy gesê dat jongboere eerder 'n langtermyn as 'n korttermyn siening oor hul toekoms moet inneem. 

Die sprekers wat die verhoog met hom gedeel het, was soos volg: 

• Johan Dique, besturende direkteur van Senwes, het jongboere aangemoedig om die toekoms te betree met 'n ingestelheid as vooruitstrewende, mededingende en hoogs suksesvolle produsente. Dit gaan nie oor wat gebeur nie, maar hoe jy daarop reageer.

• Volgens Cobus van Coller, hoofbestuurslid van Graan SA, moet jongboere die regte gesindheid teenoor landbou by hulself kweek. Wees ingelig en paraat en raak betrokke by georganiseerde landbou. 

• Prof Johan Willemse het met die jongboere gesels oor die huidige en  toekomstige landbou-ekonomiese scenario's. “Daar is tans internasionaal 'n kredietknyp en laer ekonomiese groei, maar tog is daar geleenthede ook,” het hy gesê. Produsente moet vir hulself doelwitte stel en oor die selfvertroue beskik om dié doelwitte te bereik. “Oorleef die huide daalfase en posisioneer jouself vir die volgende opswaai,” het hy gesê. 

• Shelby Tyne, die dryfveer agter Biogas Power, het jongboere ingelig oor die gebruik van biogas. Die gebruik van biogas sal 'n skoner omgewing verseker en sal hoofsaaklik bydra daartoe dat die kweekhuis effek globaal verminder.

• Mel McGlinchey, besturende direkteur van John Deere Suid-Afrika, het dié vervaardiger se entoesiasme oor die toekoms met gaste gedeel.

Hy het produsente aanbeveel om hul meganisasiebeplanning vroegtydig te doen, ten einde die tydige beskikbaarheid en aflewering van nuwe werktuie te verseker. 

Die Jongboer Toekomsfokus is aangebied deur Senwes, in samewerking met die jongboerverenigings van Vrystaat Landbou en Agri NW. Graan SA en OFM Stereo het ook deel uitgemaak van die borge van die dag. 

South Africa: City of Matlosana Markets Itself for 2010 Fifa World Cup 

The City of Matlosana is ready to benefit from South Africa's hosting of the 2010 FIFA World Cup with sponsorships and football development programmes already in place.

Executive Mayor China Dodovu briefed delegates on the city's 2010 efforts at a three-day Global Investment Conference held in Klerksdorp. The conference, which started on Monday, was attended by local and international investors, local businessmen, representatives of different municipalities and senior provincial government officials.

"As a city, we have asked ourselves: how do we plan for this sporting event, how can we avoid squandering opportunities that come with 2010, how can we ensure that the expected income generated via tourism, accommodation and hospitality service remains in Matlosana? 

"We also looked into how to ensure that we host one of the 32 participating teams in the 43 days of the 2010 FIFA World Cup," Mayor Dodovu said.

He said the City of Matlosana had followed the example of other municipalities and have initiated programmes aimed at football development.

"It is for that reason that two years ago we launched the Matlosana 2010 World Cup Legacy Project to promote and facilitate the development of football through sustainable infrastructural and training initiatives. 

"We also wanted to create a mutually beneficial relationship with the corporate world so as to make our city to ascend in world football through the hosting of major events," he said.
