Road repair conflicting issue
| CHUCKLES Die dominee gaan besoek 'n dame wat baie alleen is. Op die bedkassie staan 'n bakkie met grondbone waaraan hy peusel terwyl hy gesels. Toe hy besef dat hy die bakkie alleen opgeëet het, vra hy groot omverskoning. "Dis alles reg, dit sou net daar bly staan het. Sonder my tande suig ek net die sjokolade af"

Koffie maak ‘n mens definitief aggresief!!! Ek het gisteraand 12 dubbel brannewyne gedrink en my vrou net twee koffie's. Jy moes sien hoe bedon**** was sy! Die doodverliefde kêrel aan sy meisie: "Wat sal jy sê as ek jou vra om met my te trou?" Meisie: "Niks nie. Ek kan nie terselfdertyd lag en praat nie." Dit is die Engelse juffrou se eerste oggend in die klas op Porterville en sy sê: "Good morning class!" Net een outjie spring op en sê: "Good morning miss". Juffrou vra hom toe hoekom dan net hy geantwoord het. Sê hy: "Because I is the only one whose name are Klaas miss". Have you heard about the new restaurant called Karma? There’s no menu: You get what you deserve.

Sisi Ntombela, Free State premier, announced an expenditure of more than R1 billion on the revival of the province’s road infrastructure, which is in horrific condition, during her state of the province address on 28 February. The money is set aside for work on at least 15 roads that interlink Free State towns. Ntombela said 5 000 job opportunities would be created, playing a role in countering the province’s 38,1% unemployment rate. Including discouraged job seekers, the Free State’s expanded unemployment rate stood at 45,8% according to Statistics South Africa. Among the provincial roads to be upgraded are those between Tweespruit and Hobhouse (R709); Bloemhof and Hoopstad; Bethlehem, Fouriesburg and Ladybrand (on the Maloti Route, R26); as well as between Senekal, Rosendaal, and Ficksburg. The neglect of provincial

road maintenance is notable, with natural vegetation dwarfing vehicles, tree branches stretching beyond the yellow line, potholes, and roads signs that are not clearly visible. Ntombela said maintenance and repair work on gravel roads was also in progress, with R1,50 million allocated for this purpose. “For the next financial year, we have allocated R50 million to gravel roads, R20,56 million to a pothole repair programme, and R50 million to vegetation control,” she said. Conflicting with the ambitious announcement, the shock has been expressed about the provincial government losing R45,2 million in road grants, taken back by the national treasury. According to Francois Wilken, president of Free State Agriculture (FSA), this decision was taken by Enoch Godongwana, minister of Finance, on 25 February “for unknown reasons”. He said
according to Treasury Notice No. 1794, these funds have been reallocated to other provinces in terms of the Division of Revenue Act. “The decision is reckless and totally unacceptable. Flooding during the 20212022 rainy season wreaked havoc, not only with farmers’ crops but also with Free State road infrastructure. The FSA demands to know from the minister what prompted him to stop infrastructure grant payment to the Free State Roads Department as this may shed some light on incompetence or irregularities in the department – for which they need to be held accountable. We will formally request the minister to explain the reasons for this decision, highlighting its impact on the agriculture and rural community,” said Wilken. newsroom@rekordmediafs.c o.za

Two arrested for Gate motor theft
BETHLEHEM | SAPS MEDIA RELEASE The police, security, and neighbourhood watch in Bethlehem have successfully arrested two suspects and found them in possession of a suspected stolen property after more than six gate motors were removed in the suburbs of Bethlehem in one night. On 07 March 2022, between 02:00 and 05:00, the two suspects were arrested and found with gate motors. There has been an outcry where the community of Bethlehem reported more than 10 incidents in one area where gate motors have been stolen and the culprits have been sought. The recent arrest
of the two suspects is a major breakthrough because it could see a decline in the theft of gate motors from various suburbs. The two suspects, aged in their 30s, are appeared before the Bethlehem Magistrate’s Court on Wednesday, 09 March 2022, facing charges of possession of the suspected stolen property. The Bethlehem Detective Service requests that all complainants, whose gate motors were stolen, should visit the station urgently to assist in the identification of their gate motors. newsroom@rekordmediafs.co.za

| HEUNINGDRUPPELS Ek ken 'n man, 'n Christen, wat ek dink so effe roekeloos met sy Geestelike lewe, en met die Here omgaan. Hy dien die Here en hou vas aan al die regte tekste, soos "Ek weet wat Ek vir julle beplan, voorspoed en nie teëspoed nie" en dan ander soos "As die Here vir ons is, wie kan teen ons wees?" My probleem is dat ek sien dat hy dinge so bietjie vanselfsprekend vat en elke dag amper selfvoldaan ingaan met die vaste vertroue dat die Here hom sal versorg. Wat seker wel waar is. Ek sien ook dat hy dalk selfs roekeloos met genade omgaan, want die gedagte dat Jesus vir hom gesterf laat hom so half onaantasbaar voel. Die volgende teks pas nogal vir my in hierdie situasie en ek dink dit moet dien as 'n waarskuwing. "Daar is 'n lewenswyse wat vir 'n mens reg kan lyk, maar die uiteinde daarvan is die dood." (Spr. 24:12) Ek ken 'n ander man, sy naam is Joe, en hy was vandag by my om iets te kom herstel. Joe het vanoggend vir my gesê dat hy élke oggend vir die Here uit sy hart dankie sê vir 'n nuwe dag, en dat hy en sy vrou uiters dankbaar is vir elke stukkie brood op die tafel. Jy sien, Joe het kanker en die dokters het ná die diagnose vir hom gesê hy het net ongeveer ses weke oor om te leef en hy moet sy dinge agtermekaar kry. Daardie diagnose was egter al twee jaar gelede gemaak, en intussen het sy siekte en die virus sy besigheid bykans totaal gekelder en hulle het alles verloor. Ja, alles materieel, maar nie hulle geloof en vertroue in die Here nie. Hy het nog genoeg krag om aan te gaan. Elke enkele dag is vir Joe 'n porsie nuwe genade en hy het tot die besef gekom dat aardse goed absoluut geen waarde het nie. Alles, maar álles is net vir jou geleen. Ek het vandag besef dat genade en versorging soos wat ek dit definieer dalk waar is, maar dis nie gewaarborg nie. Genade het vandag opnuut vir my nuwe betekenis gekry en ek het besef dat roekeloos met God, en genade dodelik kan wees. Die Here het my herinner aan Matt. 7:21 “Nie elkeen wat vir My sê: ‘Here, Here,’ sal in die koninkryk van die hemel ingaan nie..." Jip, soos jy kan aflei is ek self daardie roekelose ou, en die Here het dit vandag weereens vir my kom wys, deur iemand wat werklik die knie voor hom buig. Die Here het die volgende vandag weer vir my teen die bors gedruk. "Grace is free, but it doesn't come cheap". Dit het bloed gekos. ~ Willem Botha

Vrystaatse begroting: Provinsie se finansiële slaggat vergroot, minder geld vir paaie VRYSTAAT | MEDIAVERKLARING: ARMAND CLOETE VF PLUS-LPW
Die Vrystaatse begroting wat vandag ter tafel gelê is, spreek van ʼn provinsie wat nie weet hoe om sy geld te bestee nie. Die enorme salarisrekening van die provinsiale regering beslaan sowat 62% van die totale begroting. Meer as R25 miljard word vir salarisse begroot. Die onderbesteding van voorwaardelike toekennings deur provinsiale departemente as gevolg van swak beplanning, ʼn gebreek aan behoorlike leierskap en korrekte prioriteite, het daartoe bygedra dat die provinsie R65 miljoen in die 2022/23-boekjaar verbeur. Die onderbesteding van die departemente van polisie, paaie en vervoer (R45,19 miljoen) en menslike
Argief foto
nedersettings (R20 miljoen) veroorsaak dat dié geld nou na ander provinsies gekanaliseer word. Die LUR vir finansies, Gadija Brown, het tydens ʼn provinsiale rekeningekomitee voor haar begrotingstoespraak aangedui dat ʼn gebrek aan kapasiteit die rede vir die verlies is. Dit is in die vorm van menslike hulpbronne en kundigheid in veral die departement van polisie, paaie en vervoer. Sy erken dus dat ʼn tekort aan fondse nie die probleem is nie, maar eerder ʼn kundigheidsprobleem. Die provinsie word verder gepenaliseer weens dié departement se swak prestasie en sal ook sowat R107 miljoen minder in die 2022/23 boekjaar vir
padinstandhouding ontvang. Terwyl die ANC-regering sê dat hy ekonomiese ontwikkeling in die Vrystaat prioritiseer, versuim hy om toegekende fondse aan kritieke padinfrastruktuur te bestee. Padinfrastruktuur staan sentraal tot ekonomiese groei. Die vrot toestand van Vrystaatse paaie is ʼn tasbare realiteit van die ANC se regstellende aksie- en swart ekonomiese bemagtigingsbeleid wat tot ʼn gebrek aan kundige amptenare lei. Solank die ANC se beheptheid met swart ekonomiese bemagtiging as dekmantel vir selfverryking van die ANC-elite bestaan, sal die provinsie nie ontwikkel nie. newsroom@rekordmediafs.co.za

Dear Reader, I specifically want to write this week to the businessmen and women reading the Rekord Newspapers across our regions. As far back as Ancient Egypt, advertising has served a critical purpose in the business world by enabling sellers to effectively compete with one another for the attention of buyers. Whether the goods and services your company provides are a necessity, a luxury or just a bit of whimsy, you can't rely on a one-time announcement or
word-of-mouth chatter to keep a steady stream of customers. A strong commitment to advertising is as much an external call to action as it is an internal reinforcement to your sales team. If I can give you a personal tip: Advertising serves a critical purpose by enabling sellers to effectively compete with each other for the attention of buyers. Promotion of Products and Services: The primary objective of advertising is to get the word out that you have something exciting to offer, says George Felton, author of "Advertising: Concept and Copy." It can be anything from an upcoming entertainment event you're promoting, a new product line you're selling, a political campaign you're managing, the expansion of an existing platform of services or officially hanging out a shingle for your first business. Whether your promotion takes the form of print ads, commercials, billboards or handbills, the content adheres to the rules of journalism by identifying who, what, when, where and why. Creating Customer Awareness: Advertising helps to raise your target demographics' awareness of issues with which they may be unfamiliar as well as educate them on the related benefits of your product or service. A popular example of this is
the health care industry. If, for instance, a consumer watches a television commercial in which someone describes aches and pains that are similar to those experienced by the viewer, the ad not only identifies a probable cause but suggests a potential remedy or treatment option to discuss with her doctor. Comparisons with Competitors: Advertising invites your target audience to evaluate how your product or service measures up against your competitors, says Gerard Tellis, author of "Effective Advertising: Understanding When, How, and Why Advertising Works." Demonstrations of household cleaning products are a good example of this because they provide compelling visual evidence of which product does a faster and more effective job of tackling stubborn stains. Political ads are another example of how advertising serves up sideby-side comparisons of the candidates' qualifications and voting records for readers and viewers to make informed choices at the polls. Retention of Existing Customers: An ongoing advertising campaign is essential in reminding your existing customers that you're still around, say, Kenneth Roman and Jane Maas, authors of "How to Advertise." In a troubled economy where so many shops, restaurants and
companies are going out of business, maintaining a strong presence through regular ads, fliers, postcards, events and a dynamic website is invaluable for long-term relationships. This also serves to attract new customers who may not have required your products or services when you first opened but are now pleased to have their memories jogged. Boosting Employee Morale: When people ask your employees where they're working, the latter will likely feel better about their jobs if the reaction to their reply is, "Wow! I've heard a lot of great things about that store" instead of "Nope, never heard of it" or "Oh, are they still around?" Investing in an advertising plan keeps your business an active part of the conversational vocabulary and community buzz. This, in turn, gives your workers a sense of pride and emotional ownership in an enterprise that's generating positive feelings and name recognition.

TRAGIESE SAAK VAN PAMINA VERMAAK | ANNIE KLOPPER | R379.00 | 073 847 2468 TO ORDER Toe Pamina Vermaak by die werk uitfreak, sit sy skielik sonder inkomste. Boonop verloor sy haar kêrel, haar woonstel in Tamboerskloof, asook die laaste flenters toekomsideale wat sy naarstig aan ’t vasklou was – alles in een dag. Sy is gedwing om druipstert terug te keer na haar ouerhuis op die klein Weskusdorp Witwaterbaai. ’n Plek wat sy gesweer het haar nooit weer sal sien nie. Intussen basuin die voorblaaie van poniekoerante dit uit dat rockster Wolf de Jager se verlowing met aktrise Daniella du Toit verbreek is en krioel dit op sosiale media van steelfoto’s waar sy hom verneuk. Hy moet weg uit die Kaap en ’n lukrake seleksie op Google Maps bring hom tot op Witwaterbaai, waar sy swart leerbaadjie harder as sy Fender Stratocaster skreeu teen die gehekelde doilies in Ant Leentjie se gastehuis. Sal Pamina en Wolf op hierdie slakkepasdorp van bokkoms droog en stoepsit hul probleme kan ontduik? Of lê daar net nog meer komplikasies voor?
METODE 1. Sit die stokvis in ’n kastrol en bedek dit met water. Voeg die suurlemoenskyfies en peperkorrels by en verhit dit tot kookpunt. Verlaag die hitte en laat dit vir omtrent vyf minute prut totdat die vis deurgaar is en maklik vlok. Skep die vis met ’n gaatjieslepel uit en sit dit eenkant om af te koel. 2. Verwyder die vel en grate van die gerookte vis en vlok die vleis. Voeg die aartappels,
Pikante Viskoekies
wortels, ui, gemmer, ’n kwart van die broodkrummels en die koljanderblare by. Vlok die gaar stokvis en voeg dit by die mengsel. 3. Meng die mayonnaise, kerrie, eier en mosterd in ’n aparte bakkie. Roer dit liggies by die vismengsel in. Verdeel die mengsel in 10 tot 12 plat frikkadelle. 4. Versprei die res van die krummels op ’n bord en druk die frikkadelle daarin. Sit dit vir minstens ’n uur in die yskas. 5. Verhit die helfte van
die botter en die olie oor medium hitte. Sodra die pan warm is, kan jy die helfte van die viskoekies daarin sit en dit vir drie tot vier minute aan elke kant braai tot goudbruin. Skep dit uit die pan en dreineer dit op kombuispapier. Sit dit eenkant terwyl jy die res van die viskoekies in die res van die olie en botter braai. Sit dit warm óf koud voor saam met suurlemoenwiggies, wortel-enwaterkersslaai en vars broodrolletjies.

The redheaded finch feeds on seeds and insects on the ground. The red-headed finch is monogamous and uses a wide range of old birds nests, with communal nesting weavers being the most popular. The nesting can be either singular or in small colonies. The female will lay between four and six eggs that hatch after around two weeks. The red-headed finch is found either in pairs or in small colonies during the breeding season. Outside of the breeding season, they are very gregarious and are found in large flocks up to a couple of hundred birds. The redheaded finch is seen at waterholes, in large flocks, where they drink frequently. The red-headed finch is a near-endemic. It is found throughout central South Africa in arid and semi-arid areas, mostly found in open grassland, with clumps of trees. They are also found around farmlands.
