HeeHoo and I must have driven through ten thousand roadblocks in our time in Zimbabwe. We travel a lot within the country and each 400km road trip must involve ten or twelve police roadblocks. Generally when they see HeeHoo's glorious crop of silver hair, and a road worthy vehicle they wave us through but we have been stopped on numerous occasions. There are certain protocols to be observed however at all police roadblocks. First of all be civil but not obsequious, if they see you are slightly patronizing, they will be quick to pick up on that. Secondly do not under any circumstance show anger, however unfairly you have been treated, they will make your life a misery thereafter. Never ever mutter things like 'this is ridiculous' or 'this is nonsense', if you do, you are dead!! Take it like a man on the chin!! I was caught by the cops yesterday for 'not stopping at a stop sign' Well If I had not stopped, I would have crashed into a car crossing in front of me, but no amount of remonstrating worked. Worse than that, I had not a cent on me, no driver's license, no cell phone and so I was persecuted beyond belief. 'I must find, the twenty dollar fine' they told me, I must walk to my house and collect it (only a five km distance!) I must phone a friend to bring me the twenty dollars'. I was not permitted to be served with an admission of guilt form and be allowed to pay later under any circumstances. A Spot Fine is after all a Fine on the Spot!! I mentioned that I knew it was perfectly 'legal' to sign a 'confession' and pay later but that galvanized them into a burst of vitriol that spewed forth and took me completely by surprise. 'Are you saying we are not legal Are you saying the Force is not legal Are you saying the PRESIDENT is not legal ' raged the rotund 'Police' lady with the longest painted nails I have ever seen, all the while chewing gum visibly between her front teeth. Taken aback I let down my guard completely and this offensive official actually reached into the car and deftly removed my keys from the ignition!! Accusing me of slandering the President she sauntered off with my car keys swinging from her long garish nails!! A friend later said I should have shrieked 'Thief Thief!! Call the Police' but sadly I am not quick witted enough, so I stalked over and asked her exactly what she was doing. 'You will get your keys back when you find twenty dollars' she said coolly, even offering me her phone to call HeeHoo to bring the cash!! By now her bright purple mobile phone was nestling in her hand, and I realised she was going to lend it to me to summon someone to bring me the all important twenty dollars, but instead she stated 'I have a recording of you saying that the President is not legal!' Here I am, the self appointed mayoress of my suburb, the most law abiding person in the whole country, doyen of the coffee circuit, and I have been so cleverly tied up in verbal knots, and being accused of insulting the highest person in the land!! I am seldom at a loss for words but by now I have been cleverly reduced to a quivering, slobbering mass of indignation, quite fearing for my life.... Wild horses would not allow me to 'find' twenty dollars at this stage so I slunk off to the car to lick my wounds and regroup. I asked her to call her superior and she sniggered that he was 'dead!!' Twenty minutes ensued, whilst they coterie of cops sniggered at me, but after a while they got bored with baiting me and they sauntered over to the car and gave me my keys, saying I must never slander the President again!! Talk about putting words in one's mouth.... I was free to go at last (they were knocking off from their offensive traffic duty and did not need me hanging around any more!!) So now you know how NOT to react at a police roadblock!! Be totally impassive. Take it on the chin! Do not react under any circumstances in any way. If you have the time, sit it out and let them have their moment of power. P.S. Today I drove down the exact road, stopped at the exact stop sign, and as I went around the corner there she was. She flagged me down, my legs turned to jelly, my bowels turned to water. I opened my window slowly, my heart palpitating in fright. Long bright red nails wagging, the memory of my keys still waving at the end of her accusing, confiscating finger! The confiscated cars were lined up in rows, despair and defeat emanating from every window. I braced myself, girded my loins, squared my shoulders and sharpened my tongue!!! Do you have change for fifty dollars she said brightly ++++ 2) EVENTS Zimbabwe International Trade Fair Please be advised that 56th edition of ZITF will now be held from 28 April to 02 May 2015 and not 21 to 25 April as previously advertised.

The race starts in the magnificent Matobo National Park, in the heart of the Matobo Hills World Heritage Site. In the cool early morning light, the runners will wind deeper into the hills along the Circular Drive, no doubt startling a few klipspringer and possibly a rhino or two! They will pass around Malindidzimu, otherwise known as 'Worlds View', and then swing north before exiting the park and leaving the hills behind them. The remainder of the race sees the runners pass over from the Limpopo to the Zambezi escarpment, and then onto the City of Bulawayo. Avoiding the CBD, the race will finish at the Bulawayo Athletic Club (BAC), with athletes completing the 33 miles, or 53 km ultra-marathon. The original Matopos 33 Miler was organised by the Raylton Rovers Running Club (RRRC), and was won by Mr Charlie Chase (Germiston, South Africa) in a time of 3hrs, 44 minutes and 56 seconds. Following the successful re-launch of this event in 2013 by the Matobo Conservation Society, PPC Zimbabwe will sponsor this truly historic marathon once again in 2015. In conjunction with the main ultra-marathon, a half marathon of 21 km, a relay (5 runners by 10.6km each) and a 5km Fun run, will also be run along the route, all finishing at BAC. Over 300 runners took part in 2014, with 20 sponsored water points en route. Regulations The race will be run in accordance with the regulations of the NAAZ. Entry Fee $10 per runner 33 Miler and half marathon $5 per runner 5km Fun Run $50 per relay team (5 runners) Date Sunday 12th April, 2015.

Norval Creator of Power to Emerge Series 'Awaken a new way of Seeing' thePoint is a groundbreaking 4-day adventure of self-inquiry that reveals and explores a viewpoint on Life as seen through the Mind of original intelligence - how it informs our action and is the source of authentic self-expression within all human relating. The authentic self emerges naturally and spontaneously through harnessing the Power of Present Attention. Given that the mind is the 'operating system' of awareness, it is of particular significance to see and learn how original intelligence illumines the mind, the intellect and, therefore, your thought, word and deed. When we gain true perspective, we harness the simple power of attention and stand firmly in the realm of the unimaginable, inspired to create the impossible. We stand rooted in purpose and depth of meaning with the capacity to act with clarity and effectiveness, directing our attention with precise intention. We are enabled to make a contribution to life and the living, personally and professionally, that is both satisfying and fulfilling.

Admission: $2.00 [free to film members] THE SOUND OF MUSIC Thursday 5 March in the Robert Sibson Hall at 7.00 p.m. 'The Sound of Music' was released fifty years ago on 2 March 1965 so there's not much new to say about what is perhaps the most popular family film of all time. But try Leonard Maltin's view in his current Movie Guide: 'Call it corn if you like, but Rodgers and Hammerstein's musical based on Austria's real-life Von Trapp family who fled their homeland in 1938 to escape from Nazi rule, has pleased more people than practically any other film in history. Fine music, beautiful scenery and five Oscars.... Admission: $3.00 [free to Film members] Supper available from 6.30 p.m. BIZET: LES PECHEURS DE PERLES Friday 6 March in the Robert Sibson Hall at 6.30 p.m. Bizet's opera 'The Pearl Fishers' is best known for the celebrated friendship duet 'Au fond du temple saint', but, as one recent critic remarked, it has other 'melodies to die for, and not only the vocal music is beautiful, but also the orchestral and ballet pieces too.' Set in ancient times on the island of Ceylon, the opera tells the story of how two men's vow of eternal friendship is threatened by their love for the same woman, whose own dilemma is the conflict between secular love and her sacred oath as a priestess. Admission: $3.00 [free to Red Carpet members] Dinner available during the interval ($10.00): NIAA EISTEDDFOD Monday 9 March in the Robert Sibson Hall from 8.30 a.m. to c.5.00 p.m. There will be adjudications for the National Institute of Allied Arts Eisteddfod in Bulawayo again this year.

Admission: $2.00 [free to Red Carpet members and school pupils] LIFE STORY 4 - POWER! Thursday 5 March in the Robert Sibson Hall at 5.15 p.m. The fourth stage of life's journey is for animals to gain power and the privileges it brings: enhanced social status and a better chance of siring offspring. Admission: $2.00 [free to film members] THE TUDORS SERIES 3 - PART 1 Thursday 12 March in the Robert Sibson Hall at 7.00 p.m. 'The Tudors' returns for a third series which is quite as gripping as its predecessors! Twenty-seven years into his reign, Henry VIII is at the height of his powers. A new queen means revived hope for an heir, and the growth of his Protestant Reformation promises that Henry will be the most influential religious figure in all of England, possibly the world. But when rebellion, treason and tragedy strike his court, Henry goes on the offensive to take down those who threaten him by every ruthless means possible. Admission: $3.00 [free to Film members] Supper available from 6.30 p.m. THE WINTER'S TALE Friday 13 March in the Robert Sibson Hall at 6.30 p.m. Following his highly popular 'Alice's Adventures in Wonderland', created for The Royal Ballet back in 2011, Artistic Associate Christopher Wheeldon drew on the same music and design team to create 'a triumph' and 'something entirely new' (Daily Telegraph) in this evocative reimagining of 'The Winter's Tale', Shakespeare's enduring story of jealousy, compassion and forgiveness.

When he is arrested for the umpteenth time, Cherif's exasperated mother strikes a last-chance deal with a judge to send the troubled juvenile to live quietly with his aunt and uncle and attend vocational school. Cherif's earnest attempt to go straight is sending him directly to the doldrums, until he discovers that his even straighter-laced cousin Thomas is actually part of a local gang of taggers, who roam the night bombing walls and overpasses in the shadow of a mysterious tagger whose death-defying works have made him a legend.

At the official hand-over the Ambassador emphasized how important it was for children to learn to use a library and so widen their education and general knowledge. In today's world, knowledge is power! In the meantime, the library has introduced story telling for young children on a Saturday morning. Please phone 60965 for more information. The Bulawayo Public Library was the first library to be built in this country in 1896. The Bulawayo Public Library also has a mobile library as well as a branch at Ascot Shopping Centre, which has a good selection of children's books, educational books and fiction. However, the library has been struggling financially and its great plans to create a Resource Centre but to do this it needs Speed internet connection, more computers, Wi-Fi hotspot equipment and set up in order to access the information required by its readers. and funds to build the ASCOT LIBRARY were given by the Diplomats Spouses Committee some years ago. In order to attract more readers, young and old, the library is appealing to the generous Bulawayo public for a printer for the librarian's computer and help to pay for a hi-speed internet connection. Thank you. Cape To Cairo Restaurant in Leopold Takawira Avenue, will be opened officially on the 13th March. Its aim is to offer good food, including breakfast, and nightly live entertainment. A special feature will be the Afro-Jazz pub. No casual wear will be permitted, although an exception will be made for tourists who travel light.

Bulletin No 1: 24.02.15 Page 1/3. This issue was compiled by: Lynne James and Jane High The Background December 2014 - alerted by Johnny Rodrigues ZCTF of the capture of young elephant, lion and sable in Hwange - intended for sale to zoos. January 2015 - A demonstration and March was organised (Kenesias Dambakurima) for mid-January. The planned march was called off when Police permission was not obtained. An attempt to hand a petition to Minister Kasukuwere (Environment) failed with the applicants being refused entry by security details. The petition was however received by Mr. Mzembi's office (Tourism). February 2015 - On 5th February an Application for permission for a Public protest to take place on 7th February was turned down and an urgent appeal was lodged - to be heard on 7th. The volunteer SPCA officer and her lawyer from ZLHR, David Hofisi who submitted the request, faced a panel of over 25 (many in uniforms of the armed forces and chaired by the Police Chief, Harare). This formidable group included Chiefs from the Hwange area, representatives of CAMPFIRE and CIO as well as the President's Office. Several gave prepared statements as to the virtue of this capture before the application to stage a demonstration was denied. A group of people met with the ZLHR lawyer at the Magistrates court on 7th February to hear the outcome of the appeal. It was deferred until 12th February. Having been refused permission to take photographs outside the Magistrates Court, the Police tried to stop the group. They bolted and decided to gather at a busy shopping mall to hand out leaflets and then walk around Unity Square in small groups so as not to contravene POSA (Chapt. 11.17) 'Cheerful' Elephant masks were used and these attracted the attention of members of the public who happily discussed the issue with activists... no members of the public admitted being aware that wild elephants, lion and sable were being captured in Hwange. 9th February 3 members of VAWZ, one SPCA Harare volunteer and 2 representatives from the Tourism Sector met with David Hofisi to discuss another date for a public meeting and March by those opposing the capture of wild animals for zoos. Following this a meeting was also arranged with Mr. Rodriguez primarily to thank him for exposing the situation and further to come up to speed with the responses from the International Community. Mr. Rodriguez confirmed that the secrecy surrounding the animals' present plight and their actual destinations is hugely worrying and partly explains the apparent lack of local reaction. Concerned Citizens Bulletin 1. Page 2/3 His discussions with Ed Lanca, Chairman of ZNSPCA confirmed that this project has the fullest backing of the Minister of Environment. (Kasukuwere) The Minister of Tourism (Mzembi) had on the other hand expressed his concern as to the damage this is likely to inflict on the image of Zimbabwe Vis a Vis Tourism. Mr. Rodriguez provided details of the voluble support being expressed internationally by renowned, concerned people from within Conservation, the scientific community as well as influential concerned individuals. He confirmed that the culture of fear which pervades the local business community has caused many to express private concern whilst being reluctant to go public. Loss of operating licenses (at the very least) are a genuine threat to any business seen to oppose Ministers in Zimbabwe. A copy of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Chapter 19:09 under which this issue falls was also made available by Mr. Rodriguez. 19th February a meeting was held with Ed Lanca, Chairman of ZNSPCA. Mr. Lanca outlined the policy of ZNSPCA regarding the issue. ZNSPCA and all animal welfare issues are covered by the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act Chapter 19:09 which comes under the Ministry of Environment and Tourism. These ministries are currently separate - The Minister of Environment being Kasukuwere and the Minister of Tourism is Mzembi. Telephonic contact with Kasukuwere confirmed that the Minister of Environment is fully behind this capture, stating that the Government and Parks needed the money. Mr. Lanca suggested that since this Minister is also responsible for the administration of Chapter 19:09 including the appointment of inspectors, ZNSPCA risks all its' operations if it pursues this matter. Mr. Lanca's perspective about this issue being driven at ministerial level was also clearly expressed by representatives of two other organisations who requested anonymity, but have also discussed the issue face to face with Minister Kasukuwere. The ZNSPCA Chairman stated that any further action in terms of publicity or complaints driven by ZNSPCA will jeopardise the operation of SPCA's throughout Zimbabwe. The Minister has stated that this matter is one which is covered under CITES. Ed Lanca personally regrets the capture of these animals but since CITES effectively licences such operations he is unable to provide effective opposition. Until such time as CITES provides a new directive, this action remains legitimate. The ZNSPCA Chairman outlined the variety of crucial projects presently being carried out by SPCA's throughout Zimbabwe which range from rescue of rare animals such as python and tortoises, to the control of puppy vendors, dog fighting rings, vaccination and sterilisation programmes and shelters for stray animals - the extent of these operations are already placing enormous strain, both financially and physically, on the staff and volunteers of SPCA's nationwide. Mr. Lanca feels that these equally vital operations would all be compromised if further action is taken on the elephant calf issue by ZNSPCA. Mr. Lanca also made it clear that funding is required to engage in such issues and that whilst the international community are rightly incensed by what is happening, he said that ZNSPCA will not act until funding is received. 20th February: Meeting with Rowan Martin (Elephant Management Consultant for ZIMPARKS) Rowan Martin denied having played any part in the current project of capturing young elephants and stressed that his advice to ZIMPARKS is as follows: 1.Not to export elephants under 6 years of age. 2.Not to export wild elephants - rather domesticate them locally (a process which he says takes about a year and he has written the manual on how to domesticate them) and then export already trained elephants. 3.Any long journeys need to be made by air and not by sea. Concerned Citizens Bulletin 1. Page 3/3. In a nutshell Rowan Martin believes that 'Domesticated' adults are the valuable asset and not wild caught juveniles, although, of course wild caught juveniles are the starting point. He denied any knowledge of the Lion captures although he is aware of the Sable. He confirmed that ZIMPARKS have orders for over 200 elephants and that demand for these animals is almost unlimited and the Chinese buyers 'Are very rich and determined men'. He described the places that these animals are destined for as being 'like amusement parks.' Rowan Martin outlined his relationship with an Australian Mr. Hank Jenkins who runs Creative Conservation Solutions and who has a 'Direct door into the Chinese Government.' Following the outcry to proposed sales in 2010 ZIMPARKS had agreed not to conduct such operations but they have been overridden by the Ministry of Environment in this case. He stated that he has not seen the elephants being kept at Hwange and agreed that these types of sales are in no way a solution nor an effective management tool for ZIMPARKS. Mr. Martin confirmed he had been interviewed for the Pro Hunting film 'The Pauper and the Elephant' made by Osprey Films (Zig Macintosh ) and that this film which was made in Hwange, caused a great deal of angst among 'the animal rights types.' Mr. Martin still feels that hunting is an important and legitimate way of utilising wild animals and has the potential to exceed the income generating capacity of photographic tourism. He confirmed his opposition to the Peace Park/Trans frontier Park notion in his approach to Elephant management, stating that the proponents of these Parks ignore the rights of local people to own the wildlife in their areas. Mr. Martin believes that local people 'need no skills' to make decisions about their wildlife and would learn from experience. He conceded that he has not had experience with Satellite Collaring although he was one of the first people to use radio collars on elephants and acknowledged that this technology is useful for answering specific questions. Mr. Martin considers it possible that the killing off of the oldest members of the majority of elephant herds may have substantially reduced the 'memory bank' relating to long migrations. Recent studies have shown that the average age of the oldest member of herds of African elephants is often half that of fifty years ago. Observations demonstrate that herds led by these relatively young females tend be less successful moving great distances in response to local water or food shortages, often incurring high casualties of young calves, whilst those led by old females sustain fewer casualties, appearing to move quickly through 'conflict zones' and seeming to choose 'safer' more appropriate resting areas. They also move in a far less random manner to new feeding and watering grounds. Could it be that culling (which traditionally targeted female herds) may have had yet another unforeseen influence on the ability of elephants to adapt to drought, local food shortages etc. through having lost their most experienced females Females which happen to have reasonable tusks are also hunted and would likely be the oldest females in any group. Our meeting with Mr. Rowan Martin concluded with us asking him to continue dialogue after he has read and considered our argument, outlined in the document we have named 'Elephant Trade' (See Appendix 1).
