    SPEECH BY CLLR MPHO PARKS TAU, EXECUTIVE MAYOR OF JOHANNESBURG, AT THE GENERAL MEETING OF MEMBERS OF THE GAUTENG CIRCLE OF THE LAW SOCIETY OF THE NOTHERN PROVINCES, SUNNYSIDE PARK HOTEL, JOHANNESBURG, 11 OCTOBER, 2014 Chairperson of the Gauteng Circle of the Law Society Mr. T. Mkhonto Our keynote speaker for today Honourable Judge V Saldanha Members of the Gauteng Circle of the Law Society Distinguished guests Ladies and Gentlemen Good Morning On behalf of the City of Johannesburg I would like to thank you for inviting us to this important function of the legal fraternity. Gatherings like these offer us an opportunity to share ideas but also to immerse ourselves in the country’s legal issues and in the latest debates in the field. Ladies and gentlemen, as a country we have come a long way since the dawn of democracy in 1994. The democratically elected government led by the African National Congress has done much to deliver on the people’s expectations since then. We now have the most liberal constitution in the world. Previously, human rights violations were an intrinsic part of the system. Now, when they occur, they are seen as a disgrace to our society and action is taken against the perpetrators. Apartheid, which left many of us with physical and mental scars, has been buried for good. As the City of Johannesburg we have also made strides in implementing national policy. We continue to transform our City, including our townships such as Soweto and Alexandra, from a city based on segregation and suspicion to a non-racial people’s city.

  • Speech by Clr Mpho Parks Tau, Executive Mayor of Johannesburg, Innovating in Financing South African Cities Conference, Sandton, 28 January, 2015
    SPEECH BY CLR MPHO PARKS TAU, EXECUTIVE MAYOR OF JOHANNESBURG, INNOVATING IN FINANCING SOUTH AFRICAN CITIES CONFERENCE, SANDTON, 28 JANUARY, 2015 Your Excellency, Honourable Gauteng MEC for Finance, Ms Barbara Creecy Mayors Senior government officials Business community Distinguished guests Ladies and gentlemen. On behalf of the City of Johannesburg I would like to welcome you all to this Innovating in Financing South African Cities Conference hosted by the City in collaboration with the Global Fund for Cities Development (FMDV). Our theme for the workshop is: “Creating funding opportunities for world-class African possibilities”. Ladies and gentlemen, economic development is high on our priority list and the onus is upon us as political leaders, national government, municipalities, banking institutions, regulatory bodies, those in the business world and the other stakeholders present here today, all of whom have the interest of our cities at heart, to ensure that the goals that are set are attained and sustained. Central to this is infrastructure development, this is key to the development of our economy. With global economic slowdown that hampers revenue targets and thus ability finance most of the infrastructure on balance sheet, it then becomes critical that we address these challenges as a collective. The harsh reality in South Africa today is that small and medium sized local government entities as well as municipalities need long term financing at reasonable cost for a number of infrastructure projects. Most urban infrastructure projects have been financed by the state up to now. However with the declining availability of state funds, the flow of money to local government infrastructure projects is steadily diminishing.

  • Reimagining the City, Rewriting Narratives: Music, Suburban Youths, and Inner City Redevelopment in Johannesburg, Circa 2015
    Reimagining the City, Rewriting Narratives: Music, Suburban Youths, and Inner City Redevelopment in Johannesburg, circa 2015 Amanda Mullins A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Humanities, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, in fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts by Research in Music Johannesburg 2016 ii Abstract This research explores the influence that inner city redevelopment in Johannesburg has had on both its music scenes and the identities of those participating in the music scenes, particularly young participants from Johannesburg’s suburbs who did not interact with the city before its redevelopment. Understanding the city’s history as well as the current lived and imagined divides between its suburbs and inner city illuminates its fragmented nature and informs the significance of the presence of suburban youths in today’s inner city music scenes. Personal and collective narratives gathered from participants of these inner city music scenes provide insight into the city’s spatial, social, and musical transitions, adding subjective voices to the city’s complex and ever- evolving history. The use of culture-led regeneration (within cultural clusters), as a model of redevelopment, has aided in the success of attracting new audiences to the inner city once eschewed by suburbanites, providing grounds for new experiences and interactions within an increasingly diverse social sphere. Due to this, the music’s diversity within these spaces is expanding too. The role of music – and in particular, alternative music – in enticing suburban youths to the inner city requires an understanding of why ‘alternative’ (or arguably, creative) people are often drawn to urban spaces, and in doing so, often become main contributors to the accomplishments and successes of redevelopment initiatives.

  • Mpho Parks Tau Johannesburg
    Voice of the Mayors Mpho Parks Tau Johannesburg Building cities that care Voice of Mpho Parks Tau the Mayors 1 About Voice of the Mayors Celebrating its thirtieth anniversary, METROPOLIS wishes to leverage the unique experience of its members, represented by the mayors of the major metrop- olises, presidents and governors of metropolitan regions. Too often, the expertise of these high-ranking officials is lost once their term has come to an end. However, at a time when global urban development is quickening its pace, their experience is more beneficial than ever for the new generations of local decision-makers, the entire spectrum of public and private local development stakeholders and partners in the international community. In its capacity as a network of the world’s major metropolises, METROPO- LIS also seeks to make an active contribution to the current international debate concerning the revision of the Millennium Development Goals, negotiations on cli- mate change and the preparations for the United Nations Conference on Housing and Sustainable Urban Development (Habitat III). This is how the idea for Voice of the Mayors came into being, as a wealth of first-hand testimonies from local and regional leaders whose experience de- serves to be recounted and disseminated. Bequeathing this legacy also conveys the willingess of METROPOLIS members to share their experiences and to enhance the exchange of knowledge, a concerted effort to contribute towards shaping sus- tainable urban development worldwide. Upon the creation of METROPOLIS in 1984, the 14 founding members expressed their desire to work together to strengthen their mutual capacities to manage their cities.

  • An Evaluation of the Functioning of Metropolitan Municipal Councils in Gauteng, South Africa
    An evaluation of the functioning of metropolitan municipal councils in Gauteng, South Africa by ONKGOPOTSE SENATLA MADUMO Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree DOCTOR OF ADMINISTRATION: (Public Administration) in the FACULTY OF ECONOMIC AND MANAGEMENT SCIENCES UNIVERSITY OF PRETORIA Supervisor: Prof. Dr C. Thornhill December 2017 DECLARATION OF ORIGINALITY I, Onkgopotse Senatla Madumo, student number 04307542, declare that the thesis, titled “An evaluation of the functioning of metropolitan municipal councils in Gauteng, South Africa” which I hereby submit for the degree Doctor of Administration (Public Administration) at the Faculty of Economic and Management Sciences, University of Pretoria, is my own work and has not previously been submitted by me for a degree at this or any other tertiary institution. Signature: Date: 05 December 2017 Onkgopotse Senatla Madumo Pretoria, Republic of South Africa ii DEDICATION This thesis is dedicated to my mother, Mamoriri Violet Madumo for the immense and instrumental role she has played in my life. My mother epitomises excellence, hard work, dedication and resilience. This thesis is the fruit of your toiling. You are appreciated. Kea leboga! “Kodumela moepathutse, ga go lehumo le le tšwago kgauswi” iii ABSTRACT The study examines the functioning of municipal councils in ensuring the provision of services to communities in a sustainable manner. Municipalities are at the coalface of service delivery, which is why they are significant in improving the quality of lives of the communities under which they serve. The study is significant as municipalities in the recent past experienced different forms of civil disobedience which could arguably be attributed on the lack of capability by municipalities to respond adequately to the delivery needs for services from communities.

They hardly communicate verbally to other people. Most of them, if not everyone, have smartphones which disturbs their social life and studies. The question is “How can people who care less about oth- ers and communicate nonverbally can be leaders?” A leader is someone who is at the top or above others ei- ther in the workplace, organization, musical band, study group and so forth, which consist of a number of people. Youth of today should get up and face reality and decrease the time they spend on social media platforms. They should go out there, meet people, engage themselves in projects of their stream, be active, connect and associate with people who are doing things relating to their careers.

  • Ramaphosa Unveils Cabinet and Cracks the Whip on Ministers
    SAFE HANDS ENTRUSTED WITH THE ECONOMY Ramaphosa unveils cabinet and cracks the whip on ministers An emboldened President Cyril Ramaphosa stamped his new-found authority on the government late Wednesday evening, trimming the Cabinet by eight ministerial posts and flexing his muscles by leaving out in the cold some of the most controversial individuals. Ramaphosa retained the reluctant but trusted Tito Mboweni as Minister of Finance, whilst placing Ebrahim Patel in charge of a combined ‘super economic portfolio’ which includes Trade and Industry as well as Economic Development. In spite of a blatant attempt by the Public Protector to rule Pravin Gordhan out of contention for Cabinet by hastily issuing a report which founded Gordhan guilty of violating the Executive Ethics Code, Ramaphosa evidently considered Advocate Busisiwe Mkhwebane’s own credibility in proceeding to reappoint Gordhan to the critical Public Enterprises post. The extractive industry’s darling, former mineworkers’ union boss Gwede Mantashe, was charged with responsibility for If we are to make effective progress in Energy, now combined with his previous Mineral Resources building the South Africa that we all portfolio. want, it is important that we deploy into In what has been widely welcomed as a deft reconfiguration positions of responsibility people who are of Government, Ramaphosa amalgamated several ministries committed, capable and hard-working, and axed the likes of ANC Women’s League President and who have integrity.
