Laerskoolleerlinge van ‘n skool in Ga Manoke se oë was Woensdagmiddag groottoe hulle van aangesig tot aangesig met ‘n groep vermeende misdadigers gekomhet. Die groepie was net van hulle besoek van die landdroshof af oppad na diena die voorkant van die Burgersfort polisiestasie om hulle opvoedkundige toervoort te sit toe ‘n aantal Polisievoertuie met flitsende ligte aangejaag kom. DiePolisiemanne het sonder seremonie ‘n aantal aangekeerde verdagtes tenaanskoue van die kinders uit die vangwaens begin laai en na die selle by dieaanklagkantoor begin boender. Verdere navrae, by die Polisie, op plaaslike enprovinsiale vlak, het niks opgelewer nie. Platinum Gazette het egter by boerein die omgewing verneem dat die aangekeerde groep, sover vasgestel kon word,sewe mans, betrokke was by ‘n plaasroof in die Welgevonden omgewing in dieWatervalsriviervallei. Hulle het van die plaas weggejaag, maar het langs diepad van voertuig verwissel en sover vasgestel kon word, in ‘n taxi verder gereis.‘n Boer wat lid is van ‘n plaasbeskermingsgroep van die WatervalsrivierBoerevereniging (wat ook die gebied patrolleer) het egter die verdagte groepopgemerk en die taxi agternagesit terwyl hy lede van die plaasbeskermingsgroepgekontak het om die Polisie te ontbied. Burgersfort Polisie het die groep netduskant Lydenburg vasgetrek waar hulle gearresteer en na Burgersfort gebringis. Platinum Gazette het nie foto’s van die verdagtes geneem nie omdat wetgwingdit verbied.

Greater Sekhukhune DistrictMunicipality (GSDM) and the AssetForfeiture Unit issued a strong messageto would-be criminals on Wednesday (16September 2009) that crime does notpay.

Another strong message wasconveyed to emphasise that theRepublic of South Africa has put inplace stringent laws and other measuresto prevent criminals from benefitingfrom the proceeds of their unlawful acts.

This stern warning was given whena BMW, acquired through underhandmeans, was handed over to themunicipality.

The vehicle was wonby a securityguard, Mr Tsheko Maloma, who workedfor a company contracted to look afterpremises of GSDM after he stole amunicipal 3G to enter a Vodacomcompetition in 2007.

On accepting the BMW from Head ofthe Asset Forfeiture Unit (AFU) MrWillie Hofmeyer, GSDM ExecutiveMayor, Cllr Mogobo David Magabe saidthe vehicle would be registered as anasset of the municipality and thatCouncil would decide what to do with it.

“During the 2009 election campaign,President Jacob Zuma made acommitment on behalf of the rulingAfrican National Congress (ANC) thatworking together we can do more tofight crime and corruption,” Magabesaid.

“The Municipality has a vehicle foruse by the Mayor. The Council will sitdown and decide what to do with thisBMW. Most importantly, the messagehas been sent out that crime does notpay and that we must respectgovernment resources,” Magabe said.

Cllr Magabe added that whether theCouncil decides to sell the car or keep it– the final winner will be the communityof Sekhukhune as the outcome of such adecision will surely advance servicedelivery.

Hofmeyer said that this case was agood example of how collaborationamong government institutions couldeffectively boost the ongoing campaignagainst crime.

“More often the law does not favourvictims of crime, but in this case we havehelped the victim. It is not going tohappen that the (perpetrator) would goto jail and come back to drive the BMW.We have succeeded in taking the profitout of the crime”, Hofmeyer said. Themunicipality will continue to follow thecourt case with keen interest. We hopethe court will hand down a verdict thatwill serve as a deterrent for would-becriminals.

In the meantime the Afrikaans dailynewspaper Beeld said on Wednesday MrMaloma allegedly entered Vodacom’s 100cars competition and sent about 28 000SMS messages at a cost of about R10 aSMS during the competition. The AFUsaid about R277 484 was spent on theparticular card.

On 7 December 2007 Maloma’s cardwas drawn as one of the winners andthe BMW (at that time with a value ofabout R271 000) was registered in hisname.

A project manager at themunicipality discovered the misuse ofthe 3G card. He reported the case at thegroblersdal Police Station. Mr Maloma’scar was taken away and he appeared incourt on charges of theft. Bail to theamount of R2000 was granted.

Greater Sekhukhune District Municipality(GSDM) will soon engage the agricultureand tourism sectors to establish forumsthat will deal with matters of developmentand opportunities for the people.

GSDM executive mayor Cllr MogoboDavid Magabe announced this initiativeduring the Provincial Growth andDevelopment Summit (PGDS) that washeld in Groblersdal on Friday, 11September 2009. The announcementfollows a decision taken by Cllr Magabeand mining companies last week toestablish a Sekhukhune Mining EconomicForum for the purposes of tackling issuesaffecting growth, opportunities andrelationships between mines andcommunities.

Cllr Magabe said research resultsthat are contained in the District’s 2025Growth and Development Strategyindicated that there were hugeopportunities for the development ofagriculture and tourism.

He said the research found thatagriculture in Sekhukhune had a potentialin the construction of abattoirs andfeedlots, production of bio-fuels (fromplants such as soya, sorghum, sunflower) ,dry land crop growing and livestockfarming (cattle and goats).

“However, the research indicatesthat all these potential projects could behampered by lack of water due tounpredictable rainfall and many peoplecould not farm as they would like becauseover half of our land in the district isclassified as communal land which in itselfpresents us with huge legal challenges ifland has to be transferred to aspirantfarmers,” Magabe said.

“This means most of the arable landwe have cannot be leveraged for capital,”Magabe added.

Magabe said that planning in theagricultural sector should not be obliviousto the fact that the democraticdispensation inherited a legacy ofdisparity that created a huge gap betweencommercial and subsistence farmers. “Thisresearch tells us that all the requirements

for successful production are present –namely – land, labour, capital andtechnology and skills. What is needed iscorrect institutional structuring that willhelp us realise the potential,” saidMagabe.

Magabe said tourism had a potentialalso to create job and entrepreneurialopportunities for the people ofSekhukhune.

“I am happy that three months agowe issued an advertisement to invitetenders for the development of De HoopDam and T]ate Heritage Site,” he said.

“I am also glad that we have taken afew steps in this regard in Sekhukhune byestablishing the Regional TourismAssociation last year, which will solelydevise ways and means of developing thissector.”According to the 2025 SekhukhuneGrowth and Development Strategy,Sekhukhune has a great potential inbenefiting from tourism initiatives such asFamily Recreation Cluster, SpecialInterest Cluster (birding, fishing, cultureand heritage, mountain biking and 4x4trails), Mega-Conservation Cluster, Golfand Game Cluster; and lastly the MICE(Meetings, Incentives, Conference andEvents) Cluster.

With regards to mining, Magabesaid that when the global economyrecovers, it would open up moreopportunities as referred to in theDistrict’s strategy.

“The research was, before theadvent of the global economic meltdown,forecasting that employment in the miningindustry within Sekhukhune was going todouble in 2015. With the economy likely torecover in the few years, we can only hopethat these forecasts will become a realityand that our communities will benefitfrom all the mining activities taking placeon their land,” Magabe said.

“We can also hope that beneficiationof these minerals will happen right here inSekhukhune so that we can broaden thescope for the benefit of our communities inthe mineral wealth that is found in thisdistrict,” he added.

“We have noted concerns and complaintsfrom some residents of Sekhukhune thatthe decision by the Presidency to celebratethis year’s National Heritage Day in theDistrict on 24 September 2009 mean thedemise of the annual Tjate Festival” saidCllr Mogobo David Magabe, ExecutiveMayor of Greater Sekhukhune DistrictMunicipality this week.Greater Sekhukhune District Municipalityhas been, over the past three years, been

celebrating Heritage Day at the TjateHeritage Site in recognition of itshistorical and cultural significance.“This year’s celebration, scheduled to takeplace at Ntwampe Sports Grounds(Moroke) in Greater Tubatse, does notnecessarily mean that the stature of thesite and King Sekhukhune I’s feats ofparrying encroaching colonialists arebeing downgraded or relegated into therubbish dump of obscurity,” he explained.

“In fact, Deputy President KgalemaMotlanthe’s planned visit to Sekhukhuneto grace the event is recognition by thePresidency that the people of Sekhukhunepride themselves in their history, cultureand heritage”.“This is therefore a national platform forthe people of Sekhukhune to show thewhole country - whose eyes will be fixed onthem on September 24 - how much theydraw inspiration from the history of King

Sekhukhune I’s heroics whichundoubtedly contributed so much toinfluence or mould the transformation ofSouth Africa’s political landscape”.“We therefore encourage individuals fromevery nook and cranny of SekhukhuneDistrict to rally behind this momentousevent. It may take a long while before thePresidency decides to stage a nationalevent of this significance in the Districtagain”.

Thorburn Security Solutions entered the GreaterTubatse Area in the Steelpoort/Burgersfort areasof Mpumalanga and Limpopo Provinces inSeptember 2006 as an unknown role player andgradually expanded the security business. Fromthe onset Thorburn was a role player in Tubatsewho was serious about legal statutory requirementcompliance and Broad Based BEE – securityindustry registration of the company, its directors,

managemen tand employees;private securityi n d u s t r yprovident fundl e g a lc o m p l i a n c e ;paying wagesand benefits ina c c o r d a n c ewith theS e c t o r a lDeterminationand PrivateS e c u r i t yIndustry Act,tax clearance,w o r k m e n ’ scompensation

and UIF compliance and ensuring all legalrequirements, often neglected by many securitycompanies, are met. Thorburn is one of a fewprivate security industry companies that have aproud Broad Based BEE Level 2 rating, operatingunder the cover of a Level 1 BBBEE rating ofThorburn (Holdings) Pty Ltd.

Thorburn Security Makes a Difference and Matters inGreater Tubatse Mining Security – an Overview

“Our staff have sufficient rest days, an annualbonus, company contribution to the industryProvident Fund, they don’t pay for uniforms, arefull time employees (not contractors to Thorburn)and they are not paid with cash pay packets at theend of the first week of a month. Our SecurityAssociation of SA (SASA) Gold Class Membership,one of not more than 20 security companies withthis achievement, is independent confirmation of theThorburn legal compliance”, Steelpoort basedOperational Manager Ellence Monyela commented

HDSA mining security management team, frommale dominated supervisors to female supervisors,a crime risk reduction service incorporating a safetydominant service, reaching out to local HDSAsuppliers and community support. The concept ofWomen in Mining amongst female security staff hasbeen very successful with Thorburn being the leaderin the utilisation of female security officers in miningsecurity operations in SA.Containing crime in the Greater Tubatse Area whichis renowned for poverty, unemployment and highcrime levels was never easy. Year on year ThorburnSecurity’s results indicate a trend of reduced crime,higher arrest rates and improved safety awarenesson contracted mines. These operations areexecuted by a team of local security officers that

are cared for – who receive transport to and fromwork, who qualify for monthly performance bonuseswhich is not an industry norm, who are coveredunder a 100% Thorburn sponsored death policy forR200 000 which is unique for the security industry,staff who are entitled to and receive regular specialperformance bonuses and who are rewardedregularly at company reward functions. The waybusiness is done has changed and adapted tospecial conditions – some staff developed tospecialist dog handlers, vehicles have been re buildto allow for special safety requirements meeting fatalrisk standards and new innovative dog handlingcanopies have been put in place. Managed

operations within a framework of an overall ThorburnSABS ISO Quality Management System, at thedifferent contracts add value to the mannedguarding services performed.As a recognised Security and Safety Education andTraining (SASSETA) Investor in People , is Thorburnliving up to the expectations. The ability to developstaff is reflected in the internal promotion of allcurrent managers in the Greater Tubatse Area tohigher positions, the internal promotion ofsupervisors and the appointment of a Driekop bornArea Supervisor for the Greater Tubatse Area.Leadership training is very high on the Thorburnagenda, therefore the vast number of internalpromotions the past three years in the GreaterTubatse.The ability to be local is a requirement in terms ofMining Charter requirements – Thorburn Securitymanagers being in the area for the past three yearsmust be regarded as local, a manager and area Advertorial

supervisor born in Driekop is even more local, letalone having a local Steelpoort office with theThorburn HDSA female Chairperson LebaMashao also from Limpopo . The assistance tolocal business emphasises the local focus ofThorburn – local employment, local transportcompanies and local community support.Way back in December 2007 Thorburn Securitystarted with a very first community project –supporting 160 HIV Aids orphans cared for by thenon profit organisation People Against the Spreadof HIV Aids and Starvation (PASAS) in Driekopon World Aids Day, hosting golf days at TubatseClub to raise funds for additional communityprojects, supporting HIV Aids orphans with blanketprojects and food and caring for communitymembers on Women’s Day through specialprograms and financial support. Various localcommunity projects are supported ranging fromgolf sponsorships to local welfare and churchorganisations, supporting the SteelpooortAcademy with sporting gear and assistingunderprivileged individuals through job creation.We Make a Difference and therefore Matters!

No strike forAnglo PlatinumSouth Africa’s National Union of Mineworkers (NUM) said on Monday itsmembers at Anglo Platinum, the world’s top producer of the metal, had agreed to aone-year wage deal, averting a possible strike.

The workers rejected a proposal by the company for the wage settlement tocover a two-year period, which means the union and Anglo Platinum would haveto negotiate a new deal next year, Oupa Komane, the union’s deputy generalsecretary told Reuters.

“Workers have accepted the company’s offer for the first year, but they don’twant a two-year deal,” said Komane, who is also the head negotiator for the unionat Anglo Platinum.

Asked if this meant there would be no strike, Komane said: “yes, there will beno strike, no strike is planned.”

Anglo Platinum — a unit of global miner Anglo American Plc — had offeredincreases of between 9% and 10% for different category of workers for the firstyear, and between 7,5% to 8% in the second year.

The union represents about 30 000 workers at Anglo Platinum, which hasabout 60 000 workers.

Union and management agreedon a one-year wage deal

An unlawful work stoppage had taken place at Modikwa on Wednesday, 09 September2009.

The mine said in a press release employees in the bargaining unit of the NationalUnion of Mineworkers (NUM) at the South Shaft of Modikwa Platinum Mine hadproceeded to go on an unlawful work stoppage. The issue was finally resolved innegotiations between the Union and Management and the afternoon and night shiftsreturned to normal work.

The following day, Thursday, 10 September 2009, there was an urgent meeting ofthe United Association of South Africa (UASA) with Management as their memberswere implicated in the settlement agreement with the NUM. This issue was alsoresolved and Management urged both parties to get together to build relationships andto avoid the high level of conflict between supervisors and employees.

Investigations into the issues surrounding the work stoppage will be conducted byManagement together with the Unions and Associations.

‘Build relationships’Modikwa tells employees
