Keeping promises

Ms Keitumetse Moleleki, Errica Moholola and Ms Sharon Nkosi said in last weeks Platinum Gazette that they will visit Dilokong Hospital on Mandela Day (Wednesday this week) to cheer up patients. When the newspaper visited the hospital on Wednesday to attend other Mandela Day activities, our journalist bumped into the three friendly women, playing with the kids and doing exactly what they said! More Mandela Day photographs are published on pages 3, 4 and 5.

Crime prevention in Ga Mashamotane

On Tuesday 17 July 2012 Tubatse SAPS together with members of Tubatse VEP and Lehlaba VEP conducted a door to door campaign in Ga- Mashamothane village. The aim of the campaign was to sensitise the community about the prevention of housebreaking and theft cases and they were also informed about the functioning of a neighbourhood watch. During the campaign, crime prevention hints pamphlets were also distributed. The campaign was led by constable Mohlala of Tubatse Police.

It is not only roads in the Greater Tubatse Municipality that are receiving attention lately, but also acces bridges and larger projects, of which construction is now nearing completion according to the deadlines in the Integrated Development Plan. On of these projects is the access bridge over the stream in Dresden village near Burgersfort (top photograph). When in flood in the rainy season, the full stream cuts off part of the village and residents cant go to work, nor can the children reach the school on the other side. It seems that this problem is now something of the past .... In the bottom photograph is the new bridge over the Olifants River near Moroke on the road to Mafefe village. While traffic still have to pass through the very low river at the moment, the bridge as almost completed while construction of the access to the bridge is progressing fast. As far as Platinum Gazette could see, this bridge will also be in use by the time the first rains fall.

ANCs 100 years celebrated

The ANC in Sekhukhune concluded its centenary celebrations in the region last week Friday with a rally adjacent to Batubatse Primary School in Praktiseer. Keynote speaker was ANC Limpopo chairman, Premier Cassel Mathale. The event was also attended by other ANC high brass in the province and the provincial secretary, former MEC, Soviet Lekganyane (centre in bottom photograph, sharing something with Mathale on his left and regional chairman, Sekhukhune District Mayor, Mogobo David Magabe). Chairman Mathale focused his speech on three main points. Hy emphasized that party members should use the structures in the party to make grievances known and to initiate change. He called on dicipline in party ranks. With regards to the economy he reiterated that it is the partys view that economic freedom has not been achieved and that policies should be implemented in future to achieve this goal. In this regard he stated that it is imperative that the terms of reference must be clearly spelled out to all roleplayers and that uncertainty with regard to policy should be kept to the minimum in future. In that way the road to transformation will by clear to ordinary people, investors, business and government. He said that the example of Nelson Mandela should be followed, saying We need a Mandela, someone whos example in deeds and character can be followed.

Members of the press contingent at the rally is reflected in the MK veterans sunglasses, while he guards the stage at the rally (top). Although ANC regalia was seen everywhere at the rally, it seemed that the Boks and the Bulls (bottom) were also welcome ...

Deaths from inactivity - how fit are you?

South Africans are sometimes described as sport addicts. On weekends many are glued to their seats in front of the soccer, rugby and other sports on TV. In recent research it was reported that a third of adults and most adolescents are not getting the exercise they need. Inactivity is estimated to have contribute towards more than 5 million of the 57 million deaths in the world during 2008. Inactivity is responsible for a similar amount of deaths worldwide as tobacco. Inactivity is also a major contributor towards illnesses such as coronary heart disease, type-2 diabetes, breast and colon cancer. Men in general are more active than women, but physical activity goes down as people get older. We asked readers if they believe that inactivity can contribute towards people dying and what they do to keep fit.

Mr Boas Mashegoana said: It is not possible to die from inactivity. I walk a lot on my shift and stay fit that way.

Mr Mushoni Bulagi, Mr MA Muroa and Mr Khumbelo Sirakalala said: It is true. People dont exercise and are obese. We walk, jog, train with dumbells, do taebo and aerobics. Most people drive with vehicles and dont ever exercise.

Mr Kyle McKinley said: I dont keep fit in a special way. I walk and I work on the mines. I smoke to exercise my lungs. With him are Bonita and Lily McKinley.

Mnr Stephen Carelse s: Nee, Ek werk om fiks te bly. Ek is n breakdown mechanic vir Sandvik. By hom is Marcus.

Mr Stephen Mphego said: It can be the case as the research suggests. Im going to the gym every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday and sometimes on a Friday.

Ms Lauren Nicquet said: The more you exercise the better. Ive just quit smoking and I could not even run across the road without being out of breath. I now play with my child and the dog to stay fit. Mr Nic Nicquet said: I walk up and down the mine to keep fit.

Ms Mankutu Mangwale and Ms Pricilla Mogale said: We dance to stay fit and walk a lot. No, we dont think you could die of inactivity.

Mnr Jan Wolmarans s: Ek werk ondergrond in die myn so ek loop baie. Ja, dis moontlik dat mense kan doodgaan van onfiksheid. Above: Mr Vincent Phale and Ms Mary Lesenya said: We stand the whole day and walk around. Vincent: I also walk to work.

Ms Bianca Mamabola and Mr Jacob Malepe said: You have to exercise. We are running on some weekends and Im (Jacob) doing push-ups. We really believe the research. Those who are not doing exercise are dying and getting fat.

TRP: a gem unearthed

During the recent graduation ceremony of 112, community ABET learners, held at Two Rivers Platinum Mine in Steelpoort, Limpopo, Mr Adriaan de Beer, the Business Leader of this profitable Mine, was proud to honour and award the first student to achieve 100% pass rate at all the levels. Mr. Judah Mabilo, from one of the Two Rivers core communities, Kalkfontein, was assessed to be functionally illiterate when he joined the Mine in 2006. He worked as a general worker. In the past financial year Two Rivers has spent R1,290,000 on ABET only. His determination to succeed in life, inspired him to take advantage of the Two Rivers Platinums ABET programme and he enrolled for ABET level 1 in 2010 where he out-performed his peers. I am proud to be at Two Rivers because Two Rivers gave me many opportunities and now as we speak they have enrolled me on a leadership course. I am doing hard-rock breaking certificate course at Bathopele Mine, in Rustenburg. To me this is a privilege I cannot misuse. After 3 to 4 years I want to be a Mine Overseer at Two Rivers and I will work hard to achieve this, said a proud Mr Mabilo. Over the years, as attested in its close-up SLP report, Two Rivers have demonstrated that, in deed it is possible to enjoy unlimited benefits if you invest in your human capital. Over 480 employees and community members have benefitted from its ABET programme and this has proved popular within both its employees and communities within which it operates. The only way we can respond to the triple challenges of poverty, unemployment and inequality in our society is through skills development, mentorship and empowerment. This way, everyone benefits, including our shareholders. At Two Rivers we do not only talk about our Vision, but we also allow our employees to live the Photographs & article: principles and benefit Bethrum Dzonzi from them. The Mine provides a conducive environment for individual growth and our employees take charge of their own destination. We thank Judah for his exemplary behaviour and attitude, said Adriaan de Beer, the Business Leader at Two Rivers Platinum.

Losing it about trucks losing it

This truck was photographed on Saturday afternoon on the R555 between Burgersfort and Steelpoort. It was losing its contents at a rapid pace, making driving behind it a very unpleasant and dangerous experience. It also did not keep to the speed limit, making opportunities to pass it few. Similar trucks has been photographed on the same stretch of road losing anything from slag to cement and damage to vehicles due to these are common.

86
A car that says waku doki meaning it is built to create excitement and gets your heart racing in the words of Toyota president, Akio Toyoda. Toyotas newest sports car the, 86, or hachi roku in its home market, Japan, was made available to Platinum Gazette by Burgersfort Toyota this week for a photo session (unfortunately no driving, it was not fitted with permits or plates yet). Mr Toyoda earlier said of the rear-wheel-drive sports car: I am very proud of this car. Thank you for the patience of car lovers - they are going to enjoy this car. When seeing it in the metal for the first time, it seems that the compact 2+2 Toyota was conceived as an entirely driver-focused machine, designed to deliver the core qualities of the classic sports car experience. That means precise, instant response to the smallest throttle and steering inputs and the kind of performance that appeals to those for whom driving is a passion. The 86 is built on a new platform, with a highly aerodynamic bodyshell stretched tight over the cars mechanical elements. Rather than fitting a heavy, large capacity powertrain, Toyota has opted instead to go back to its sporting roots, installing a compact, frontmounted, free-revving petrol engine that drives the rear wheels. This four-cylinder boxer unit was developed in cooperation with Subaru (and it is also indicated on the plastic covering the mill) and generates 147kW at 7000 rpm. Maximum torque of 205 Nm comes in at 6600rpm, giving the 86 brisk performance. The top speed of this lightweight (around 1 200 kg), rear-wheel drive coupe is said to be just over 220 km/h and the benchmark 0-100 km/h sprint should be completed in around 7,2 seconds.

Betrekkings/Vacancies
The powertrain is matched to the worlds most compact four-seat design to create a car that benefits from light weight, low inertia and a low centre of gravity to achieve the best possible power-to-weight ratio. For the driver that means lively, accessible performance and dynamic character with minimal intrusion from electronic systems. Both the powertrain and the driving position have been set as low and as far back as possible to achieve the best balance: the car has a near-perfect 53:47 front-to-rear weight distribution. The flat-four engine format and the drivers hip point (the lowest of any current Toyota production model) together give the 86 an ultra-low centre of gravity, at just 475mm. The 86 makes the most of a light kerb weight, making it easy for drivers to exploit its nimble handling and cornering poise. The suspension features MacPherson struts at the front and double wishbones at the rear. The car rides on 17-inch wheels and is fitted with ventilated disc brakes fore and aft. Toyota has added its D-4S injection technology to the 1998 cc four-cylinder engine. This system features separate twin injectors for both direct and port injection, and a high 12.5:1 compression ratio, increasing power and torque across a wide range of engine speeds without sacrificing fuel efficiency and environmental performance. The flat-four engine has equal bore and stroke of 86.0mm and drives through either a six-speed manual or six-speed automatic transmission. The manual offers quick, precise shifts using a tactile, short-throw lever; the automatic transmission can be controlled using paddle shifts mounted on the steering wheel. Power is distributed to the rear wheels via a limited slip differential to give the best possible grip in all driving conditions. The ABS and switchable vehicle stability control systems have been tuned specifically to deliver dynamic stability at the limit of the cars performance envelope with minimal electronic intervention to help preserve the purity of the driving experience. On board, the ergonomics and function of every element the driver interacts with have been scrutinised to make driving the car as natural, instinctive and rewarding as possible. For example, the steering wheel has a 365mm diameter, making it the smallest ever fitted to a Toyota, and it is trimmed in buckskin, developed from exhaustive feedback from test drivers on how to achieve the best steering performance and grip. The three-meter instrument cluster is arranged around a large tachometer, its design benefiting from close attention to the positioning of the displays, markings and typeface. The result is the best possible visibility and readability. The driver-focus of the cockpit is further reinforced by the carbon-effect trim, all-black roof lining, red stitching on the upholstery, aviation-style rocker switches and lightweight, aluminium pedals. The car is locally available at Burgerfort Toyota just shy of R300 000, going up midway to R400 000 depending on your individual choice. You can trade in the family saloon, but then you must shrink the kids (and baggage)! This car is definitely build for fun, it is not a hauler.

Lion the king of the soccer field
Xstrata Lion Ferrochrome, Tubatse Chrome, Modikwa Platinum Mine and Thorncliffe Mines soccer teams faced off in the Iemas soccer tournament at Longtill last week Saturday. Modikwa Platinum Mine and Tubatse Chromes teams finished with a penalty shootout to determine who will be placed third and fourth. Modikwa ended in third place. (Shoot-out photographs on this page - Modikwa in blue and Tubatse in red). By the time of the final, failing light made photography impossible, but this did not deter the teams to play their hearts out. They played a full 90-minute game keeping their opponents away from the goal box. In a penalty shoot-out Lion Xstrata won 10 to Thorncliffes 9 goals. Iemas is planning to host the event every year.
