The DSK Group held a gender-based violence luncheon on Saturday at the La Montagne Hotel & Spa in Ballito. The theme was “Versace”. The group is a non-profit organisation based in Phoenix. Its humanitarian work focuses on rescuing and supporting victims of abuse, and providing relief and rehabilitation for those who have suffered trauma, including abuse, rape, abandonment and neglect. At the event were:…

WITH more than half of marriages ending in divorce, many people wonder: “Is it really possible to find true love after divorce?” My answer is a resounding yes – but only if you are willing to take three essential steps first. Step 1: do the inner healing work: Before you can move forward, you must look honestly at the relationship that ended and take responsibility for your own healing. As long as you continue to blame your ex, you will remain stuck in pain. Without healing, you will likely attract another partner who brings the same challenges – and the same heartbreak. That’s why some people give up on love altogether, saying they “keep attracting the same type of person”. Whether it’s someone who cheats, disrespects you, avoids responsibility…

A SIGNIFICANT connection is gaining recognition: the impact of low iron levels on mental well-being. Whether it’s toddlers, teens, new mothers or seniors, iron deficiency often shows up as mood swings, brain fog and tiredness. “Iron plays a vital role in producing serotonin, dopamine and norepinephrine, the brain’s mood, sleep and focus chemicals,” said Sister Karin Davidson, anaemia advocate and head of the Cape Town Infusion Centre. Without enough iron, these neurotransmitters cannot be made efficiently, leading to emotional instability, brain fog or low mood. Global research backs this up. A 2020 population-based cohort study found that people with iron deficiency anaemia faced a significantly higher risk of depression, anxiety and sleep disorders than those with normal iron stores. A review of studies among women found that improving iron status…

ACTOR Theshen Naicker is gearing up for an exhilarating few weeks as he prepares to unveil two major projects: the highly-anticipated play, The Rich Housewives of Chatsworth, premiering on November 29; and the romantic film, My Cousin’s Big Fat Durban Wedding, set for release on December 12. Each production embodies not only Naicker's personal upliftment, but also traverses deeper societal narratives that resonate within the Indian community. Raised in the close-knit community of Kenville, in Durban, Naicker often reflects on the unwavering support his upbringing provided. “What I love most about Kenville was that we were a small community, and we all took care of one another,” he said. "Every child was treated like one part of the bigger family and we respected all the elders. Even though I left…

A PHOENIX man took the stand to recount the horrific night his cousin Wesley Steenkamp was shot dead at a Springfield Park petrol station where they had gone to watch a drag race. Shaun Sukhlal, 34, described how he was also shot four times during the incident that has left him physically and emotionally scarred. He was the first State witness to give evidence during the murder and attempted murder trial of Artish Muganlall which started in the Durban Regional Court last week. Muganlall, 22, also of Phoenix, was arrested and charged for the murder of Steenkamp, 30, and attempted murder of Sukhlal in February last year. The incident occurred after Sukhlal, Steenkamp and another cousin had gone to watch the drag racing, in Springfield Park, on the evening of…

AS SOUTH Africa commemorates the 165th anniversary of the arrival of the first indentured Indians in 1860, community leaders reflect on their ancestors' legacy of resilience, educational values, and contributions to the nation's economy and freedom struggle. From sugar cane fields to positions of leadership, their journey represents a remarkable story of perseverance and achievement despite historical challenges Ravi Pillay, a former MEC in KwaZulu-Natal, said the indentured Indians were “quite visionary and exemplary”. “Their emphasis on values – largely emanating from their religious and cultural belief system – is very important. They demonstrated by action and sacrifice the importance of education and a proper work ethic. “They were brave enough to engage in the struggle against injustice, and for political and economic rights. Of course like all communities we…

TEN-year-old Jivana Bisetty has made history as the first visually-impaired pupil to reach the Top 10 in the South African Maths Challenge (SAMC). Despite her visual impairment, the Crawford International La Lucia pupil’s extraordinary numerical abilities and determination have earned her national recognition, proving that passion and perseverance can overcome any obstacle When Jivana tackles a maths problem, she does not just see numbers – she feels them, understands their rhythm, and turns them into patterns of possibility. Jivana is the first blind pupil ever to reach the Top 10 in the competition’s history. Yet, behind this extraordinary feat lies a young girl’s unbreakable love for learning. “My love for maths has inspired me to try harder examples. I make mistakes along the way but I continue to learn from…

BY THE time Zohran Mamdani became the next mayor-elect of New York City on November 4, many Americans were familiar with his progressive platform and legislative record. But understanding the democratic candidate’s background requires examining the rich cultural tapestry woven into his surname: Mamdani. He takes the name from his father, Mahmood Mamdani, a prominent academic who was raised in Uganda and whose work focuses on postcolonial Uganda. I studied the history of the Khoja community for my doctoral work and have helped develop Khoja studies as an academic discipline. The Mamdani surname tells a story of migration, resilience and community-building that spans centuries and continents. The Khoja history Mamdanis in Uganda belong to the Khoja community, a South Asian Muslim merchant caste, that shaped economic development across the western…

IT IS A celebration that sets the subcontinent ablaze with a million points of light. This is Diwali, the great festival of lights, a sublime testament to the triumph of radiance over obscurity, of good over the profoundest evil. Imagine, if you will, the scene in its quintessential, unadulterated glory: the smoky, fragrant dusk alive with the flutter of flames from countless diyas, each tiny earthen lamp a defiant sun against the encroaching night. They line the edges of homes, spill from windowsills, and float like constellations upon sacred rivers, their warm, honeyed glow painting the world in hues of gold and saffron. And yet, in the autumn of 1860, as this pageantry of light and life reached its crescendo across the dusty plains of Bihar and other states, a…

THE family of a KwaDukuza traffic officer who was shot while investigating a stationary taxi, are hoping for the maximum sentence after his killer was convicted of murder. Senior Superintendent Mariemuthoo Desmond Arumugam, 50, of Tongaat, was employed at the KwaDukuza Municipality’s traffic department. The father of three was shot while investigating a stationary taxi on the N2 Groutville off-ramp on November 4 last year. Philakahle Hloniphani Dladla, 26, was also found guilty on two counts of robbery with aggravating circumstances, unlawful possession of a prohibited firearm and unlawful possession of ammunition in the Durban High Court last Friday. At the start of the trial, State advocate Rakesh Singh said Dladla, who was a passenger in a minibus taxi, had planned to rob the driver and the passengers of their…

HAVING served the community of Chatsworth from a young age, and now serving the country as the deputy chairperson of the National Council of Provinces (NCOP), Poobalan “Les” Govender’s remarkable life story emerges as a testament to resilience and unwavering dedication. Govender, who will turn 71 on November 21, shared his story which started from humble beginnings growing up in Cato Manor and Chatsworth. Childhood Govender said his maternal grandfather, Sadayappen Govender, who hailed from Salem in Tamil Nadu, South India, came to South Africa as an indentured labourer at the age of 15. “My grandfather worked on a sugar estate north of Durban, where he saved money and later bought a small farm in Northdene. He was quite a religious man, so he built the first temple and a…

SOUTH Africa's Women's Cricket World Cup final loss to India has ignited a fierce national debate about gender inequality in sports after a viral social media post called out the lack of support from cricket officials and male ex-players. While India’s women celebrated with national icons present, South Africa’s team stood alone, raising uncomfortable questions about how women’s sports is valued in the country. India clinched the title with a commanding 52-run win over South Africa at the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai. The match sparked a passionate social media post by South African actress and writer Thanja Vuur, known online as @cape_town_cricket_queen, who accused the nation’s cricket establishment and male cricketers of abandoning the women’s national team when they needed support the most. In her viral Instagram video,…

It’s that time again – Hugo Broos has named a Bafana Bafana squad, and as always, the noise follows. From social media outrage to barbershop debates, the Belgian coach’s selections never seem to please everyone. Yet, as the national team prepares for Saturday’s friendly against Zambia in Gqeberha ahead of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations, perhaps it’s time South Africans took a step back and appreciated what Broos has achieved. Since his appointment in 2021, Broos has had to fight battles that few foreign coaches could withstand in this country. He inherited a team low on confidence, plagued by inconsistency, and disconnected from its fan base. Names like Andile Jali were forced upon him by public demand, and his insistence on rebuilding the team his way was initially viewed…

Once the liquid starts to simmer, add the…

Childline South Africa held a gala dinner on Saturday at Coastlands Umhlanga. At the event were:…

SUMMER is around the corner and the season often changes what we feel like eating. When the sun is out, most of us want lighter meals, cold drinks and food that does not make us sleepy. It’s also a time when many people want to reset their habits, choosing fewer garage samoosas and aiming for more balance. Intermittent fasting is one of the most talked-about ways to reset these days. You might have seen it online, with before-and-after photos, and claims that just skipping breakfast is the answer. But what’s often missing is advice on how to do it in a way that really works. Many people start by skipping meals, then end up breaking their fast with fried snacks, creamy curries, or a big plate of food. It’s similar…

IN A CELEBRATION of music, nostalgia and community spirit, the Denis Hurley Centre is set to host a special fund-raiser featuring a singalong screening of the timeless musical, The Sound of Music. The event will take place at the Rhumbelow Theatre in Umbilo on November 16 at 2.30pm. Attendees are encouraged to dress up as their favourite characters from the film and immerse themselves in the magic of this beloved classic. “What is the first thing you associate with nuns, refugees and great music? The Denis Hurley Centre. What is the second? The Sound of Music,” said Dr Raymond Perrier, director of the Denis Hurley Centre. His enthusiasm encapsulates the essence of this unique fund-raiser, which ties together the spirit of the centre’s mission with the joyous celebration of a…

A CHATSWORTH Sars employee accused of the execution-style murders of his gardener and a barber intends to plead not guilty, claiming he “cannot remember” the incidents. While applying for bail, Wasim Kudoos complained about prison conditions and inadequate food for Muslim inmates as he awaited trial for the October killings. Kudoos, 33, gave evidence during his bail application in the Chatsworth Magistrate’s Court on Thursday. He was arrested by Bayview police soon after he allegedly shot dead his gardener, Mzikayise Paulos Mabida, 54, in the driveway of his Fiona Street, Mobeni Heights home, on October 8. An hour earlier, he allegedly shot and killed a barber, Mahmudel Sajid, 38, at his salon in Summerfield Road in Bayview. Kudoos, a tax consultant at Sars, told the court that he had obtained…

IF YOU, like me, get your news from social media you would have been bombarded with this song on social media last week following the news of Zohran Mamdani being elected as the new mayor of New York City. This immediately caught my attention as not only were the renditions of the song quite entertaining, they were also followed by a clip of Mamdani from his victory speech saying: “Donald Trump, since I know you’re watching, I have four words for you: ‘Turn the volume up.’” He also spelt his name out for his rival, Andrew Cuomo, after he referred to him as “Mandani” or “Mandami” during a debate. In response, Mamdani emphasised, “My name is Mamdani”, even spelling it out as ‘M-A-M-D-A-N-I’. This started a worldwide craze of the…

DAILY my phone buzzes with home remedies extolling turmeric for inflammation, honey for sore throats, and ginger for digestion. Also, just about every spice, fruit and vegetable – from garlic and black cumin to green tea, cauliflower and strawberries – is widely promoted as both a curative and preventive agent against cancer. Then there are WhatsApp videos that speak to another kind of cancer – the type that no amount of lemon juice, coconut oil or sugar elimination can help. This is the cancer that is eating into every cell of countless mothers and fathers who feel like fading shadows in the lives of their own children. And when the parents eventually succumb to the cancer caused by broken hearts, there are so many WhatsApp videos that recount the haunting…

A POWERFUL car explosion near Delhi’s Red Fort has killed at least 13 people, with investigators probing terror links. Local religious leaders have strongly condemned the attack, expressing solidarity with India while calling for unity against terrorism. The explosion occurred hours after the police in Faridabad announced the dismantling of a terror module linked to Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) and Ansar Ghazwat-ul-Hind, raising suspicions of a possible connection. Investigators had recently seized 2 900kg of explosives and a large cache of arms from the group, and arrested two doctors from Jammu and Kashmir, identified as Adil Ahmad Rather and Muzammil, for their alleged involvement. Intelligence sources suggested that the arrests may have “panicked” the network, potentially triggering the attack near the Red Fort. The 17th-century Red Fort, a Unesco World Heritage Site,…

INDIA’S triumph at the Women’s T20 World Cup last month was a spectacle of skill, grit and national pride. Yet, as the confetti settled in Dubai, a piercing voice cut through the jubilation, not from the stands, but from the digital trenches of X. Thanja Vuur, the Cape Town-based actress and writer known as @capetown cricket queen, unleashed a scathing critique that laid bare a festering truth about South African cricket. A truth that many are not prepared to even acknowledge, let alone fix. Her words, raw and unapologetic, called out the establishment and its male ex-cricketers for abandoning the Protea Fire women’s team when they needed support most. “India, you win this World Cup. Your congratulations is coming. Just give me a few minutes because first I’m gonna tell…

“Good luck preparing things that turn from day one.” This is former Proteas’ left-arm spinner Paul Harris’ message to the BCCI and Team India ahead of the two-Test series starting at Eden Gardens, Kolkata on Saturday. Harris, never far from a frank discussion, believes the visitors are more than equipped to match India in the spin department, if the hosts are to serve up Bunsen burners that spit and turn from the opening day as they have done on recent visits by the Proteas to the subcontinent. This was not without due cause though, after the Proteas, particularly under former coach Ottis Gibson and captain Faf du Plessis, produced spiteful pitches in South Africa that seamed and bounced uncontrollably when India visited these shores. Harris feels that the eye-for-an-eye period…

Max Verstappen continues to redefine Formula One excellence. The Red Bull driver set another remarkable record at the Brazilian Grand Prix, becoming the only driver to have finished on the podium from the most different starting positions in the history of the sport. Verstappen has now claimed podiums from 16 different grid slots and even the pit lane, marking an unprecedented 17 starting positions leading to a top-three finish. The achievement underlines Verstappen’s extraordinary versatility and consistency — two hallmarks that have defined his rise to the top of F1. Whether starting from pole or deep in the pack, the Dutchman has shown an uncanny ability to fight his way through the field and deliver results that others can only dream of. At Interlagos, Verstappen once again demonstrated why he…

2 cups rice flour (made from 1½ cups Spekko Jasmine Long Grain White Rice) 2 cups shredded coconut ¾ cup coconut milk 1 litre oil for frying bamboo skewers For the glaze: 1 cup white sugar 2 tbs water Make the rice flour: Pour the rice into a blender, and blend until finely ground. Sieve the rice flour, then blend again to ensure there are no large pieces remaining.

Fry the rice balls: Heat the oil in a pot over medium heat. Fry the dough balls until golden brown, about 5 minutes, stirring frequently to ensure they…

Community and civil society hosted “A call to action to stop the harm of online gambling” on Saturday at the Radisson Blu Hotel in uMhlanga. At the event were:…

YOU are still young, and that is exactly why now is the perfect time to start taking care of your health. The habits you build in your teens, twenties and beyond lay the foundation for how you will feel both physically and mentally, and later on. Think of it as an investment in your future self: strong, focused and full of energy. Eat smart: you are what you eat: What you eat shapes your energy, focus and mood. Fuel your body with whole foods, colourful fruit and veggies, lean proteins, healthy fats and whole grains. Limit processed snacks and sugary drinks – they might give quick energy but cause crashes later. Do not skip meals, especially breakfast, and listen to your body’s hunger cues. If you are busy, prep simple…

Aries (March 21 – April 19) Scorpio’s spotlight is on your emotional depth and the tender corners of your heart. This isn’t the week to sprint past your feelings or power through discomfort. Slow down and really listen to what’s stirring inside you. The strength you crave is found in softness, not resistance. Transformation is calling, and the more you let go, the lighter you’ll feel. Feeling: raw but strong. You need: to pause before reacting and give yourself space to breathe. Tarot says: death: Surrender to the shift and allow rebirth to unfold. Word: transform. Taurus (April 20 – May 20) Keep it steady. Partnerships are under cosmic inspection, and the universe is gently asking you to check in with your heart. What’s real and reciprocal stays; what…

OVER 100 organisations have united in South Africa to call for a complete ban on online gambling, which they describe as a “silent epidemic” devastating families and targeting youth. The coalition has launched a 90-day national call to action, demanding immediate legislative changes and enforcement measures to combat what they view as an urgent national crisis. Led by community activist Brandon Pillay, the event at the Radisson Blu Hotel brought together civil society organisations, women’s groups, faith-based institutions, health and social services, and advocacy movements. The 107 organisations signed the civil society declaration on the harm of online gambling, calling for an outright national ban. Their mission: to launch a national call to action against the growing harm of online gambling, which they said was ravaging families, fuelling debt, and…

THE story of New York’s new mayor, Zohran Kwame Mamdani, starts not in America, but in Cape Town. His childhood in South Africa during the end of apartheid gave him a first-hand look at inequality. This experience, he said, taught him that justice must be real and tangible, not just an idea. This lesson is now facing a backlash from powerful figures like Donald Trump and Elon Musk. Their opposition isn’t just personal. It’s a rejection of the very idea of material justice that Mamdani learnt in South Africa. For some on the South African left, Mamdani’s win is a cause for celebration. But the real lesson of his victory is being missed. His win wasn’t achieved through social media posts or by declaring himself too pure for the political…

MY FATHER was from a generation that showed little emotion toward their children. Hugs and kisses were rare, if not entirely nonexistent. For him, there was no time for emotion. His dharma was to simply provide a better life for his family; this was all that mattered to him. It was only twice that he showed affection towards me. On both occasions, he kissed my forehead. The first was when I got my matric certificate, and the next was when I became the first in my family to graduate with a degree from the University of Durban-Westville. It was only years after his death, I realised why a man who showed so little emotion kissed my forehead on both those occasions. He understood what those moments meant for him and…

THE recent court ruling against the National Energy Regulator of South Africa (Nersa) marks a significant turning point in determining electricity tariffs in the country. Beyond the legal jargon and regulatory frameworks, this decision represents a substantial victory for citizens who deserve fairness, accountability and transparency in the principles used to calculate electricity costs – elements that have long been lacking in how energy prices are set for millions of South Africans. This ruling is Nersa's third court defeat since 2022. While these court rulings do not alter the current tariffs, they do necessitate a more transparent and accountable process for future rate increases. For too many years, ordinary citizens and businesses have endured a system that often appeared arbitrary and detached from reality. Consumers have faced double-digit price increases…

I HATE buzzwords. Politicians use them liberally. They think it somehow makes them sound knowledgeable and “with it” and to be in the know. I say no-no. What are buzzwords? They are words or terms that appear suddenly and stay around for a certain period of time, and then disappear as fast as they appeared and another word becomes popular. In today’s tech-savvy world, the term “AI” has become common. Put on any politico’s speech on television or radio and slash me if they don’t use the term “grassroots level”. Do they know the meaning? Have they ever brought themselves down to that level and experienced what the majority of their supporters know simply as existence? The words “keynote address” flashed around at political rallies, and indabas carry with it…

I LISTENED eagerly to South African social media personality Thanja Vuur’s comments about the lack of support for the Proteas women’s team at last Sunday’s Cricket World Cup ODI final, and I thought I would share my thoughts. Firstly, I do think it might have been appropriate for the Minister of Sport, Gayton Mckenzie, to have attended. To many cricket fans, the ODI World Cup is considered the authentic world championship, so he may have missed a trick. That said, I do not think it is mandatory for every sports minister from every nation to show up at every major event. Imagine an Olympic Games packed with 150-odd ministers and their entourages – they would take up all the VIP seats. But enough about that. Now, to be honest, I…

I have often been asked about this in my career as a player and coach. While we may never know the correct answer, a lot comes down to feel and confidence. Putting is a fine art of golf where even the textbook methods sometimes don't make you the best putter. Let’s look at both options and just maybe help your decision-making. When it comes to putting, golfers are often faced with a fundamental question: to wear a glove or not? While some swear by the benefits of wearing a glove, others prefer the feel of the putter in their bare hands. So, what's the right answer? Wearing a glove can provide several benefits, particularly for golfers with sweaty hands or those who grip the putter tightly. It can improve grip,…

There are victories, and then there are proofs. Saturday night in Paris, after Lood de Jager’s red card left the Springboks with 14 men and a mountain to climb, the world champions delivered the latter. This wasn’t a statement win; it was a cultural exposé, a reminder that modern Springbok rugby runs on something deeper than systems, big bodies, flair or a dominant pack. It runs on mentality. A red card is the ultimate stress test for any international team in rugby. It strips away comfort and exposes the real stuff underneath: clarity, composure, discipline, unity. When De Jager walked off, the Springboks didn’t stagger. They recalibrated. The first sign of their ethos arrived at half-time, when Siya Kolisi, during the occasion of his 100th Test in the green and…
