Platinum Election update

Gazette
The Executive Mayor of Sekhukhune District Municipality Cllr Keamotseng
Stanley Ramaila together with MMC Mbusi Mahlangu engaged the community
of Ga-Mashabela last week to discuss water problems. The meeting was held
under Marula tree in the village. “We will resolve this challenge soon and supply
our people with water shortly. Victory is certain” said Executive Mayor Ramaila.
The Electoral Commission welcomed this
week’s proclamation of the 2019 National
and Provincial Elections by the President and
provincial Premiers. The proclamation triggers
the official election timetable which the Electoral
Commission will discuss with the National Party
Liaison Committee before publishing in a Gov-
ernment Gazette. The proposed election time-
table spans the next 71 days and lays down the
key dates and deadlines for various milestones
until voting day on 8 May 2019.
The proclamation places the preparation of the
elections into a different trajectory. The Com-
mission will now have to escalate its prepara-
tions so that all electoral activities are accom-
plished in time for Election Day.
The first legal consequence of the proclamation
is to close the voters’ roll for this year’s elec-
tions. This means no new applicants may be
admitted to the voters’ roll for purposes of the
2019 National and Provincial Elections. This
will include both additional registrations and
re-registrations.
Elections must submit their lists either:
• Using the Electoral Commission’s
Online Candidate Nomination System
at https://www.elections.org.za/MyIEC/
Account/Login); or
• Delivered by hand only to the office of
the Chief Electoral Officer at Election
House, Riverside Office Park, 1303
Heuvel Avenue, Centurion.
The Electoral Commission launched the Online
Candidate Nomination System ahead of the
2016 Municipal Elections to speed up and sim-
plify the process of submitting candidate nom-
ination lists for elections by allowing parties to
capture their own information and then submit
it electronically via the internet by the deadline.
At the time, more than half of the nearly 64 000
candidate nominations were submitted online.
The total cost for a political party to contest the
2019 National and Provincial Elections is R605
000:

Voters who will be outside of the Republic and
who intend to vote at embassies and consulates
need to notify the chief electoral officer of this
fact and the mission at which they intend voting.
In this regard, voters have 15 days to complete
the notification (VEC10) which is now available
on the website of the Electoral Commission.
• National Assembly = R 200 000
• Plus 9 Provincial Assemblies x R45
000 = R 405 000.
The amounts are the same as those used in
the 2014 National and Provincial Elections.
The retention of the same deposits since 2014

Last week Platinum Gazette carried an article about a fresh water pipe burst in Swart Street Ohrigstad on the front page. The leak resulted inter alia (on the face of it) water cuts to some
residents and exorbitant water use accounts.
Mr Willy Mosoma, spokesperson of Sekhukhune District Municipality reacted to the article this week, saying: “We are aware of the problem of water loss at Ohrigstad. Our team was
dispatched there to ascertain to exact cause of the leak and come with a solution.
The results of the investigation revealed a pipe leak which is beyond the responsibility of the owner. Therefore, Lepelle Northern Water committed to take financial responsibility of the
water loss while the owner will only be billed as per the normal consumption, meaning what the owner use to pay monthly.
Our team will work henceforth to repair the existing damage and restoring the old meter in a way that it complies with the current standards.”
We telephoned one of the residents in the street early on Thursday morning on 28 February. Apparently the ‘team’ has not started working as the water meter was still closed and the
water still flowing from the hole in the road down the street. Just before going to press he phoned back “the team is here, they started working on the leak” he proclaimed the reason for
some optimism on the matter. While at it, we also requested (for a fourth time) comment from the district municipality about various water issues in Burgersfort. No response ...

Month-end blues
This week saw bumper to bumper and
impossible new lane traffic situations in Burg-
ersfort again - true month-end traffic blues.
Traffic blocking crossings when the lights
turn green was not uncommon.
This weekend is expected to be very busy
again, hopefully drivers will take care and
observe rules of the road while being con-
siderate with fellow drivers. Perhaps a few
more traffic officials present will also help.

Are you willing to pay to

A new set of rules will assist South Africans
to make the most of the data they buy from
their cell phone network providers. Some of
what will be new as described in the Inde-
pendent Communications Authority of South
Africa (Icasa)’s end-user and subscriber ser-
vice charter ensures that data users will now
have an option to have the data roll over into
a new time frame. This is coming into effect
as of today, 1 March 2019.
In the past customers paid for the data
and it was valid for a certain period of time.
If you did not use all the data by the expiry
date, you lost whatever was left.
The adjusted rules will now also include
guidelines that force network operators to let
users know when their data bundle will be
depleted and they will be charged ‘out-of –
bundle-rates’.
Earlier the week Vodacom faced a
large-scale backlash as it announced plans
to charge R49 for users to roll over data of Ms Isabele Nkosi said: “I don’t think it is fair. Ms Maria Malepe, Mr Thabiso Maroge and Mr Thapelo Mokgotho said: “It is unfair because

same size as the original one.
MTN said it has been offering data rollo-
ver for a number of years. Contract custom-
ers can already roll over data automatically
up until two months of the date of purchase.
Prepaid costumers’ data bundles will now be
rolled over, as long as the customer buys an-
other bundle before the existing one expires.
Data for contract customers of Cell C
will automatically roll over to the next month,
for a maximum period of two months, at no
extra cost. The oldest data will be used first,
to ensure that the current month’s data can
be rolled over to the next month. For pre-
paid customers, recurring data bundles will

The new regulations surrounding the roll

in better management of their data. Many
consumers previously complained that data

Mr Maxwell Sekgogoba said: “I’m on gov-

data. Once I’ve paid, it belongs to me and
should be able to use it until it is finished.
They should not be allowed to charge you

Mr Khomotso Phasoane said: “I don’t think
there is a problem to pay to extend the life of
your data. I knew how long it would be valid
when I bought it. I took the risk and it is my
problem if I did not use it all. It is fair that they
want to charge us to keep it for longer”.

Ms Bonang Mapheto said: “I used to com-
