The municipality is the only area in the province that is situated on the banks of the Vaal River and Vaal Dam, covering the area formerly known as the Vaal Triangle. The municipality is a stone’s throw from Johannesburg along the scenic Vaal, Klip and Suikerbos Rivers. It is comprised of the Emfuleni, Lesedi and Midvaal Local Municipalities and includes the historic townships of Evaton, Sebokeng, Boipatong, Bophelong, Sharpeville and Ratanda, which have a rich political history and heritage. It has a variety of attractions offering a vast cultural heritage and historical experience. The Sedibeng region boasts several heritage sites related to the South African War of 1899–1902 and the two World Wars that followed. The Sharpeville Memorial Precinct stands as a reminder of the Sharpeville Massacre of 21 March 1960 when 69 people lost their lives while protesting the pass laws of the then apartheid South Africa. Sedibeng is the fourth-largest contributor to the Gauteng economy. The predominant economic sector in the district is the manufacturing of fabricated metal and chemicals. In the metal sector, the Arcelor-Mittal Steel plant, the Cape Gate Davsteel Wire and Steel plant, and the Ferromanganese plant of Samancor are the three main large baseline plants in the district, while DCDDorbyl Heavy Engineering is the biggest manufacturer of engineered products in Southern Africa.

  • Sedibeng District Municipality Annual Report 2005-2006
    Sedibeng District Municipality Annual Report 2005-2006 Chapter 1 1.1 Foreword - Executive Mayor 1.2 Foreword - Municipal Manager Municipal elections were held in March 2006 during the year under review. Mayor Hlongwane was re-elected and there were certain changes in the political leadership. The elections led thereto that the mandate for the new term of office had to be attended to and included in the Integrated Development Plan to deliver on the mandate of the ruling party until 2014. The year under review was also characterized by significant institutional challenges, as the Municipal Manager and Chief Financial Officer were suspended in September 2005 and a significant number of senior managers were acting. Notwithstanding the abovementioned problems, the people acting as Executive Managers did everything within their powers to render an effective and efficient service to Sedibeng District Municipality’s stakeholders as can be seen from the reports that follow. The 2004/5 Annual Report, IDP and budgets were considered and approved timeously. Service delivery continued in respect of health care, emergency medical services, vehicle registration and licensing, disaster management, tourism promotion, local economic development, management of fresh produce market, management of heritage facilities Some of the highlights of the year included: Installation of CCTV cameras in Vereeniging CBD and Sebokeng; Hosting of agricultural summit in December 2005; Development of permanent Sharpeville Exhibition; Rollout of Novell software to improve Information Technology Services; and. Actions to resolve critical problems of air and water pollution through an intergovernmental action committee. We were privileged on 16th October 2005 to host the President at a Presidential Imbizo.

  • BOIPATONG by Dave Steward, Chairman of the FW De Klerk Foundation
    BOIPATONG By Dave Steward, Chairman of the FW de Klerk Foundation On 17 June the EFF issued a statement to mark the 28th anniversary of the Boipatong massacre. It stated that the massacre had been orchestrated by “an Apartheid government led by FW de Klerk” who had “funded and supported the massacre in order to undermine negotiations…” I remember Boipatong. I was at the time head of the South African Communication Service (SACS). On 18 June I woke to the news of the awful event in which 45 residents of the Joe Slovo informal settlement in Boipatong had been brutally murdered. Boipatong was egregious ‐ even by the violent standards of the times. Women and babies were among the victims who were mercilessly hacked and stabbed to death. President De Klerk decided that he would visit the community to express his condolences to bereaved families the following Saturday ‐ 20 June. I was disturbed to hear an announcement of the visit on the SABC on Friday evening ‐ because it was not our practice to provide advance notice of visits to potentially sensitive areas. Our party assembled under the eggshell blue skies of a highveld winter at a police depot about 5 kms from Boipatong. SACS had made arrangements to transport members of the local and international media who wished to cover the event. We all climbed into an ancient bus and followed the presidential motorcade on its route to Boipatong. As we approached the township from the north‐ west, it became clear that my concerns about the early announcement of the visit were ominously warranted.

    INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SOCIAL SCIENCES AND HUMANITY STUDIES Vol 9, No 2, 2017 ISSN: 1309-8063 (Online) THE NEXUS OF FOOD AND HOUSING INSECURITY IN SOUTH AFRICA: THE CASE OF BOPHELONG AND SHARPEVILLE TOWNSHIPS Steven Henry Dunga North West University, South Africa [email protected] WCJ Grobler, North West University, South Africa [email protected] Abstract Considered a human right, housing and food security can be viewed as basic to what defines an individual’s well-being and is enshrined in the South African Constitution. In any country, affordable housing and food security are central to development to ensure an adequate healthy lifestyle. What makes the link between housing and food security important is that in a household with inadequate resources, housing and food security can be in a competing relationship and may even involve a trade-off between each other. Furthermore, food insecurity and housing insecurity are important components in poverty reduction policies. In this study, a random sample of 600 households was taken based on a quantitative research method. Two low income neighbourhoods were selected in the Emfuleni Municipal area in Southern Gauteng, South Africa. The relationship between food insecurity and housing insecurity was analysed using different statistical techniques. To measure food insecurity the Household Food Insecurity Access Scale (HFIAS) developed by the African Food Security Urban Network (AFSUN) was used, while a housing security measurement scale was developed. The research found that a trade-off exists between housing and food security and, in many cases, food insecurity and housing insecurity exist at the same time.

    INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ECONOMICS AND FINANCE STUDIES Vol 10, No 1, 2018 ISSN: 1309-8055 (Online) THE DEVELOPMENT AND APPLICATION OF A REGIONAL AND LOCAL ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT ASSESSMENT INSTRUMENT Daniel Francois Meyer, North-West University, South Africa [email protected] ─Abstract ─ ─Abstract ─ Globally, local economic development (LED) is recognised as a strategic process that assists with the acceleration of economic development in local regions, in both developed and in developing countries. Economic development practitioners have a need for user-friendly assessment instruments and tools to analyse and compare economic development in regions. The aim of the study was therefore to develop and apply an instrument to assess the economic development potential of a region since such a comprehensive strategic and practical instrument does not exist. Various types of regions, from national to local, could be assessed and compared using the instrument. The development potential (DP) of a region has been formulated as the aggregate of all local resources (R) multiplied by the aggregate of local capacity (C); therefore DP = R x C. Extensive research has lead to the identification of variables contributing to the extent of the local resources and capacity. The methodology included the identification of variables representing capacity and resources and the allocation of values for each variable through a quantitative survey method which included 380 local business people. The instrument was tested in a developing region in South Africa known as the “Vaal-Triangle” region, which includes the municipal areas of Emfuleni, Metsimaholo and Midvaal. In testing and applying the instrument in the study region, it was found that all three areas had low economic development indexes of below 30 (where the maximum is 100).

  • Sebokeng Wellness Centre to the Sebokeng Community and the Gauteng Department of Health
    PRESS RELEASE For immediate release 1 November 2013 ArcelorMittal South Africa donates R13m Sebokeng Wellness Centre to the Sebokeng Community and the Gauteng Department of Health ArcelorMittal South Africa, Africa’s largest steel producer is pleased to officially handover a R13 million state-of-the-art Reamohetse Wellness Centre situated at the Sebokeng Hospital precinct to the MEC for Health, Mr Hope Papo, the hospital’s management and the community on the 1st of November 2013. The project is a partnership between the ArcelorMittal South Africa Foundation and the Gauteng Department of Health. With the capacity to treat approximately 279 patients daily, 1395 patients weekly, 5580 patients monthly and 66960 per annum, the wellness centre will address the lack of adequate healthcare facilities for the disadvantaged communities residing in the Vaal Triangle. The MEC for Health, Mr Hope Papo said that the wellness centre will also fulfill a significant role in meeting the growing demand for healthcare in South Africa due to an increasing population and significant burden of disease due to HIV/AIDS and tuberculosis (TB). It will also fulfil a pivotal role in meeting the South African National Aids Council (SANAC) mandate to have three million people receiving antiretroviral (ARV) treatment by 2015. “ According to statistics on the UNAIDS website 6.1 million South Africa citizens are living with HIV/Aids and an increasing number of people are becoming infected with drug-resistant TB strains. We are in need of more healthcare institutions such as the wellness centre to treat, maintain, educate and make those who are infected with the diseases lives as comfortable as possible, “says MEC for Health, Mr Hope Papo.

  • Death in Boipatong
    DEATH IN BOIPATONG The Dead ofBoipatong More than forty people were massacred at Boipatong on Wednesday 17 June. Men, women and children, and even those in their mother's womb were hack­ ed to death. Life, which hitherto offered only suffering, was snuffed out by men so low, that they could only attack at the dead of night when the shadows concealed their identity. Even though the evidence is hidden and might never be established there is little doubt about who is guilty. This killing must be laid at the door of the Intelligence Department and their allies in the Inkatha Freedom Party. It is clearly the work of men who are out to destabilize the townships, destroy all movements of opposition and reimpose the state of emergency. Addressing this issue, John Carlin said in The Independent (24 June 1992): In Boipatong, as in the majority of other massacres, the people who actually do the killing are blacks linked to the Inkatha Freedom Party...Those who direct them are whites operating within the intelligence structures of the police and army. The only issue in doubt is how high up does the authority come from? Does it stop at the 'securocrats', the generals and colonels who effectively ran the country during the Eighties? Or does it go right up to F W de Klerk, as Nelson Mandela claims? These questions have not been conclusively answered. The argument that this event was the result of previous shootings in the area is beside the point. The townships and squatter camps are witness to violence and murders week after week.
