Public Protector
visits locally
Local stakeholders had the opportunity on
Wednesday and yesterday to engage with
Public Protector Adv. Busisiwe Mkhwe-
bane on issues around the importance of
establishing internal complaints resolution
units, customer service units or sectoral
ombudsman institutions within the provin-
cial government.
Adv. Mkhwebane visited Burgersfort as
part of a nationwide roadshow to hold talks
with government and other relevant stake-
holders on the importance of addressing
service and conduct failure complaints at
municipal or departmental levels before
the grievances could be escalated to her
office.
The roadshow commenced in Mpuma-
langa in July, bringing together an array
of interested parties, including repre-
sentatives of the provincial government,
municipalities traditional authorities as well
as various civil society organizations.
It seeks to give effect to Pillar 7 of the
Public Protector Vision 2023 - a detailed
plan which is essentially about taking the
institution’s services to the grassroots.
Pillar 7 encourages organs of state to
establish effective internal complaints
resolution units, customer service units or
sectoral ombudsman offices.
Mkhwebane said organs of state need
to develop Service Standards and Cus-
tomer Service charters in line with the
Batho Pele principles. Her first stop was
at Sehlaku Technical High School at Drie-
kop she had a discussion with the learners
- whom the Public Protector describes as
key to carrying her message home. Yester-
day she met with provincial and municipal
officials as well as representatives from
various civil society organizations.

Tubatse Ferrochrome infrastructure

investment assists with Eerstegeluk road
A R20 million infrastructure investment to assist the Road Agen-
cy Limpopo with the repair and rebuilding of the Eerstegeluk
road was officially handed over in March this year.
The road was in utter disrepair and a stretch of 5.5km funded
by Tubatse Ferrochrome was completed in November last year.
This project created approximately 35 jobs. During the hand
over of the project, Mr Desmond McManus, Samancor COO said:

Women take initiative

Women in law enforcement and emergency
services took the lead this week with an all
female force hosting a road block to make
sure drivers have valid licenses and that their
vehicles are roadworthy. This was part of
their Women’s Month programme.
The initiative took place on 15 August in
Burgersfort near the R37 and R555 cross at
Tubatse Crossing Mall.
The traffic officers, police officers and
emergency services ladies braved the early
summer heat to make sure that law and order
is enforced on the roads. A large number of
traffic fines were issued for various offences.

The Eastern
Limb Mines
Career Expo
-2018
T
he 2018 Eastern Limb Mines Career Expo took place
from 31st July to 3rd August at Samancor Win-
terveld Club in Steelpoort with about 24 exhibitors.
An estimated 6000 learners from surrounding schools as
well as those from as far afield as Lephalale and Phal-
aborwa visited the venue throughout the week. On arrival
each learner was treated to a meal before being ushered
to exhibiting stalls.
The pupils were divided into small groups of 10 to 15
individuals and directed towards exhibition stands where
presenters taught them about multitude of careers and
operational activities in the mines. Learners enthusiasti-
cally interacted with all sorts of practicing professionals
from mechanical and electrical engineers, geologists,

HRD manager’s forum – conveners of the exhibi-

tion – said the idea of the expo was brought about
back in 2009. Human Resource Development (HRD)
managers of mining operations in Eastern Limpopo
region came together to deal with common train-
ing challenges. They identified aneed and thus an
opportunity to provide career guidance on various
mining industry professions as well as to engage
with communities around their respective areas of
operations. The process also fulfills some of the ob-
jectives in the companies’ social labour plans (SLP).
The first expo was held at Modikwa mine in 2011
with focus on grade 9 learners.
However it was realised that many schools did
not offer relevant subject choices at that level, then
focus moved towards the grades 10 and 11.
Kobus Fourie, Jakes Van der Sandt, Peet Herbst and Peet Herbst, member of the HRD forum, ex-
Nora Mphahlele

health and safety specialists to human resource manage-

ment, finance and procurement.
They were advised of a variety of career paths lying
ahead of them as well as prerequisites of bursaries and
scholarships opportunities offered by mining organisa-
tions as well as other industries.
Not only learners were interested in the workings of the
mines and smelters, but educators also demonstrated en-
thusiasm in the information that was dished out. In many
of the presentations a good pass rate in functional math-
ematics, mathematics, accounting and physical sciences
were repeatedly mentioned as a must.
Kobus Fourie, chairperson of the Eastern Lim Mines

plained that one of logistical challenges in organiz-

ing an event of this nature, had to do with aligning
plans with learners’ academic calendar, so as to
avoid conflict with their examinations. The oth-
er challenge had to do with communication with
participating schools about a set date. In the end
though the team aced it and put up a successful
expo in all aspects.
The Provincial Department of Education, Psychol-
ogy and Guidance Services’ Ms. Nora Mphahlele
said the department receives many requests for
career expo’s from other sectors as well. Howev-
er, by targeting learners in grade 10 and 11 the
Eastern Lim Mines Career Expo plays an important
role of helping learners to make appropriate subject
choices in their final high school years.
The expo has been well received and endorsed by
local government as well as provincial government.
Councilor MJ Phokwane - the mayor of the Fetak-
gomo Tubatse municipality, accompanied by other
VIP dignitaries also visited the exhibition stalls and
interacted with both the learners and presenters.
Jakes van der Sandt, another member of the HRD
forum stressed that while there are opportunities in
mining, the sector cannot solely absorb everyone.
Looking into the future, van der Sandt indicated,
the forum intends to attract more organisations
in the services sector to take part in the expo so
learners could be exposed to career paths those
sectors and encouraged to consider them as well.

Burgersfort
land grab ends
up in court
bp Tubatse Modeling Academy hosted its first annual women’s celebration event on
11t August at Nalitos in Burgersfort, summed up with a fashion show by the models. At
the event those present celebrated women who united in 1956 and said if you ‘strike a
women you strike a rock’. Guest speakers were business women Mamokiba Yvonne,
Kelebogile Malepe from 365thoughts, Tshego from Tswaranang Support Group and
Millicent Mkhonto. The models were dressed by Classic Man.

Models strut their stuff

Owners of land in Burgersfort (in the Google Earth image the large piece of vacant land adja-
cent to the build-up area to the South of the R37 route through the town) went to court to fight
a land grab that is ongoing since the end of last week.
As far as could be established an interim court order was obtained by at least one of two
land owners. Respondents in the matter have indicated that they want to oppose the interim
order. As far as could be determined, the matter will be heard on Tuesday. The involvement
of the Police in the matter, who allegedly also did not react to the land grab is also a bone of
contention between the sparring parties.
Apart from the illegality of the land grab it is not clear if criminal aspects, that is allegations
that people are selling plots at land for thousands of rand (the fraud aspect), and the possible
political aspect (that a political party or civil group) are behind the issue, are also investigated.

Praktiseer still
‘parked in’

‘Sorry sir, but we are still parked-in in Prakti-

seer this morning. I will be unable to keep to
our appointment’.
This was the words of one of Plati-
num Gazette’s news sources on Thursday
morning about the situation in Praktiseer
where violent protests, rocks in the road and
burning tires and even an attempt to set tires
alight with LPG containers were the order of
the day.
As far as could be determined the unlaw-
full behaviour is conducted by law-abiding
citizens who oppose possible bail to certain
alleged perpretators of serious crime. By the
time of going to press 21 people were arrest-
ed for public violence.

Boxing teaches youngsters

discipline and focus
In one of the least known areas - Ga-Maguduza section
of Strekfontein village, in the Elias Motsoaledi Local
Municipality is one of the area’s best kept secrets for
boxing fraternity. Young men of school-going ages
gather daily at the homestead of Mr Phillipos Matšo-
mane to hone their boxing skills.
According to Mr Matšomane the daily routine of these
boxing legends in the making include going to school
at the local Moganetšwa Primary and Good Hope
Secondary, doing homework together, running in the
hills, fitness exercises, sparring and punching.
As a community activist, sport enthusiast and a com-
munity builder, Matšomane uses boxing to instil the
values of discipline and strict adherence to the prin-
ciples of athletic success. He also uses his constant
contact with young men to mentor them into respon-
sible, caring and considerate adults.
As the President of Matšomane Boxing Club he said his club
educates the young boxing charges to become a good exam-
ple to their peers, starting with sharing in home chores such
as drawing water and washing dishes for them to internalise
the values of non-sexism and respect for women.
“I am committed to producing holistically useful champions
who will add value to society and to boxing as they punching
their way to the titles of the future” said Matšomane
He added that their club has not received any form of funding and they
use his thatched spare room to train, punch and lift without much room
for the more than 20 athletes.
“Our biggest headache at the moment is transport to tournaments and
the parents are so poor you won’t even know how to ask them to pay
for transport fees” he added
One of Matšomane Boxing Club’s seasoned boxers Bongani Khumalo
(19) says his time to represent South Africa at any Olympic or other level
has come and wished boxing promoters from Boxing South Africa could
visit and give them a platform to shine.
“I have more fight in me, I only need to take it out there” said an enthu-
siastic Bongani

To sponsor a T-box is R1 000 and to sponsor
