Human rights art 

NONTOBEKO DUMA 

Art For Humanity (AFH) 

held an exhibition of artwork 

and poetry centred around 

human rights at the KZNSA 

Art Gallery. The art work on 

display is from both national 

and international artists. 

This kind of exhibition is also 

often held at Luthuli Museum 

at Groutville, in KwaDukuza. 

The house of the late famous 

ANC President, Chief Albert 

Luthuli, who was a writer, 

farmer, teacher and deacon, 

was turned into a museum 

by KwaDukuza Municipality 

to preserve his legacy. This 

museum attracts visitors from 

all over the world. 

The AFH and Luthuli 

Museum aim to promote 

awareness of human rights 

with the poetry and artwork 

presented from various 

perspectives giving a voice 

to women’s rights, children’s 

rights and civil rights. The 

AFH has such a major impact 

in human rights education 

that it is alleged their website

of AFH, Jan Jordaan, also 

facilitates school workshops 

that not only help, awaken 

and nurture the creativity in 

young people, but also raise 

awareness of human rights. 

These workshops have been 

happening since 2006 in 

places such as Umlazi and 

Phoenix. Jordaan would like 

the human rights to become 

personal to the young people 

and for them to be aware of 

human rights violations that 

take place around them. 

He believes that more can be 

done to the support arts just 

like science and business, 

with arts being held in the 

same esteem. He went on 

further to say, ”contrary to 

popular belief artists see 

things with a logical eye, and 

to expect South Africa to be 

a country of innovation but 

to ignore the arts, is a big 

problem” . Visit the AFH and 

Luthuli Museum websites to 

view the artworks and get 

involved. Ilembe community 

is encouraged to visit Luthuli 

Museum to learn about the 

struggle of a black man. 

JSS Foundation Launch at 

Dokodweni Beach 

Marvellous Zondi 

IT was a fruitful day at the soft launch of 

JSS Foundation, an organization focusing 

primarily at equipping people to be able to 

help themselves fight hunger and improve the 

quality of their lives. 

This event was held at Dokodweni Beach, 

between Gingindlovu and Mandeni, with 

speeches delivered by the co-founders Mr. 

Linda Zama and Ms Gugulami Zama. They 

are descendants of the late Aldenville Higher 

Primary School Principal, Jeremiah Sol Zama, 

whom the organization is named after. This 

school is situated at Groutville in KwaDukuza. 

The late JSS Zama was described as a self 

motivated individual who always tried to lay 

a helping hand whenever he could, especially 

through familiarizing community members 

with new and efficient ways of modern 

farming. He used to teach them on how to use 

land to their advantage which is among the 

reasons why the newly founded NGO caters 

for these needs. In simpler terms, he was a real 

life superhero. 

Linda revealed that the organization plans 

to expand into disaster management. In the 

near future an institution which will mainly 

focus on teaching Science and Agricultural 

Studies, will be established in iLembe District 

Municipality. Other projects that will be 

under the JSS Foundation are LimaZulu and 

Nomcabango Bursary Fund.

Newly Opened Boxer Shop Brings 

Opportunities to SMMEs at Mandeni 


The popular Boxer retail shop opened 

its doors for the first time at Mandeni, 

at KwaGcaleka, on the 24th of March 

2016. 

The move to have the store located 

just outside of the Mandeni Central 

Business area, was welcome by smiles 

from residents as they can now make 

shopping closer to their homes. Since 

Boxer is widely known and attracts a 

huge number of customers, SMMEs 

from in and around Sundumbili 

township will now be introduced to 

a huge number of customers as well. 

Apart from being just a retail shop, 

Boxer offers a lot to small businesses 

based around this area. 

They will be pleased to know that since 

1995 Boxer has played an integral role 

into uplifting SMMEs. It provides 

intellectual support by imparting 

years of acquired knowledge and clear 

direction in order to help stimulate 

SMMEs to either supply a product 

or service to Boxer within the retail 

industry. Business opportunities with 

Boxer are listed in their website. 

Ketlaphela to fast track 

on ARV production 

Thandeka Ngidi 

A newly established state owned 

pharmaceutical company, 

Ketlaphela meaning “I will live” 

will now be producing ARVs to fast 

track the rollout of HIV treatment 

to the whole of South Africa. This 

was announced by President Jacob 

Zuma on his State of the Nation 

Address in February. Ketlaphela 

which is based in Pretoria was 

established in February 2015 and it’s 

manufacturing plant is still under 

construction. 

According to the Department 

of Science and Technology 

spokesperson, Lunga Ngqengelele, 

this company will not only source 

and supply the drugs, but will also 

supply other essential medicine 

required by the Department of 

Health. First Ketlaphela branded 

tablets will be available at the 

beginning of 2017. It is said that 

this pharmaceutical company will 

improve the availability of medicine 

in government health facilities by 

targeting the burden of diseases. 

Other shocking news on the AIDS 

pandemic include an announcement 

by the Deputy Police Minister, 

Maggie Sotyu, that about 88% of 

SAPS employees is infected with 

HIV/AIDS. Sotyu announced this 

at a seminar hosted by the country’s 

Parliamentary Police Portfolio 

Committee in February. This 

seminar was also aimed at focusing 

on the high number of police 

killings in the country. Sotyu said 

that the AIDS ridden force include 

both police officers and non-career 

personnel. “The 88% include active 

personnel, clerks, public service act 

members and sweepers,” she said.

SMME..What you should know 


Completing and submitting tender documents 

By Phumelela Projects 

THIS is a continuation from the March 

issue of SMME NEWS 

Here are the golden rules for 

completing and submitting tender 

documents: 

• Time – allow adequate time 

to plan how you will complete the 

documents on time and completely. 

• Ensure document is complete 

with no missing pages. 

• Know well in advance 

the place where tenders must be 

submitted. 

• Tenders have to be delivered 

in “hard copy” originals i.e. no FAXES 

or emails. 

• All pages must be signed 

• Ensure all supporting 

documents are ready on time. (Note 

Tax clearance certificate will take at 

least a week to get from SARS) 

Identify information resources of 

available business and new markets 

accessed through tendering processes. 

From a supplier perspective the first 

phase in winning a new and lucrative 

contract, is the identification of 

appropriate tenders that relate to the 

goods or services that your company 

can offer. 

It can be quite daunting, trying to 

find new business, for a business 

person in a new venture. However, 

there is no need to worry, companies 

requiring goods and services want you 

to find their tenders. They want you 

to respond. Therefore, tenders can be 

found on web-sites. They can be found 

in trade journals and they can even be 

found in your post box or email! 

Almost all major companies have 

web pages dedicated to tender and 

business opportunities. Almost all 

weekly newspapers, and most dailies, 

have pages dedicated to tender 

advertisements. 

Typically, if you find a tender for 

which you think may suit your goals 

and objectives; you will need to either 

download the relevant documents 

from the company’s web site or you 

will need to make contact with the 

designated person who will either 

email or post the relevant documents 

to you. 

Sometimes, you will need to register 

your intent to respond to the tender 

by either attending a compulsory 

information session or by submitting a 

letter of intent. 

Analyze tender documents for viability 

in the new venture context. 

It is very easy to become overwhelmed 

with tenders, whereas in reality it is 

likely that only very few of them are 

really suited to your business. It would 

be stupid to be respond to every tender 

that crosses your desk. 

In a short time, you will be exhausted, 

dispirited and insolvent. Responding 

to tenders can be onerous and the 

bigger ones can require thousands of 

man-hours and hundreds of thousands 

of rand to complete. 

As in all sales efforts, the key is to 

focus both on your target market and 

your core competencies. It is essential 

to assess the vailabity of the tender 

before expending too many resources. 

In fact, many companies have very 

stringent criteria that are evaluated 

in a BID/NO BID meeting as the first 

stage of responding. Most companies 

continue the BID/NO BID meetings 

at regular intervals, evaluating their 

ability to deliver on a technical level, 

on a commercial level, on a legal 

level and on a logistical level. If at any 

time they feel that they would not be 

able to realistically met the tender 

requirements they make a decision to 

either withdraw or to continue and 

partially comply to the requirements 

of the tender. 

Analyzing viability is essentially 

matching the requirements of the 

tender with the goods and services 

that you are potentially offering. There 

needs to be high level equipment, 

for example, they will generate a 

profit & loss analysis to understand 

the revenue and cost implications 

over the lifetime of the goods. 

Obviously they will also look at cash 

flows and other financial ratios and 

statements as well. But, what the client 

is attempting to do, is to determine the 

real cost of purchasing the required 

equipment. No-body likes surprises 

because it could end up costing the 

tender evaluation team’s jobs, if they 

make a serious error in judgement 

and damage their company through 

imprudent purchases.

Neresh Gayapershad 

Some of us were taught at an early 

age that failure is a bad thing. When we 

performed poorly on tests, we received 

a failing grade. When a business goes 

bankrupt or closes, it is said to fail. We 

are constantly reminded every day that 

failure is something negative. But what 

about the positives of failure? There 

are so many benefits to failing. I find it 

difficult to argue that failure is anything 

close to negative. Failure is a learning 

experience. Above all else, failure is 

an opportunity to learn; and there is 

a lesson to be learned in every loss we 

encounter. “I have not failed. I’ve just 

found 10,000 ways that won’t work”, 

said Thomas A. Edison. 

This quote is great because it strips 

failure of its negative influence. Failure 

is simply a way something “won’t work”. 

Instead of being a “lack of success”, it 

becomes part of the process of trial 

and error. Therefore, each idea we try 

that doesn’t work brings us that much 

closer to an idea that does. To that end, 

experiencing failure is a necessary step 

in arriving at success. Keep in mind, it 

is very important you learn from every 

failure and that the same failure isn’t 

experienced twice. This could lead to 

unnecessary wastes of time and money 

and even possibly fatal mistakes. Failure 

is something we have to get used to. 

Failure, like marketing or accounting is 

a normal business process. Because of 

this, failure is something we must get 

used to in order to survive. Failure is 

such a common occurrence it should 

come to be expected. Therefore, we 

need to ensure that we develop thicker 

skin if setbacks seem to bother us. 

Get used to the fact that we will 

experience more failures than 

successes. This doesn’t make us failures. 

Identifying opportunities and trying 

to capitalize on them are valuable 

skills that will add benefit. We are 

not prophets, so it is impossible for 

us to know which ideas, skills or 

opportunities will be profitable. The 

only way to know for sure is to try. 

Probably the most important thing to 

remember about failure is that it can’t 

be avoided. Trying to avoid failure 

will only prevent us from acting–and 

there is more danger in not acting 

than in failure itself. Failure shouldn’t 

be taken lightly, but instead it must be 

taken seriously. Because mistakes are 

expensive, they should be studied to 

ensure a lesson is learned.Even more 

important, is to accept and make sure 

we are able to identify a failure when it 

occurs. If we can’t spot a failure when 

it happens, mistakes will continue 

until we learn to fix them. This can be 

extremely costly and potentially fatal 

for us.We must handle failures with 

care by ensuring we can identify them 

when they occur. Then, be sure to 

pinpoint the lesson to be learned.

Utamuza isikimu 

odlala eNgilandi

Umdlali wase Nigeria ophekwe
