       A Number of Villagers left Oshakati

      The cocks crowed six o’clock when I left the flat for the hospital. I showed the permit to the guard at the checkpoint. Though it was compulsory to check the permit, the guards followed the order often sloppily and did not look on the permit when I was accompanied by the young colleague in uniform as a lieutenant of the SADF. Military vehicles drove frequently out in respect of the fear of the whites regarding the increase of insecurity. These vehicles had driven deep ruts and big potholes into the gravel roads.

      Quite a number of villagers had left Oshakati with their families for the south what was Windhoek or one of the coastal towns, or for South Africa to get out of the danger of war and to enjoy the better life with quiet and restful nights and to start some kind of profitable businesses. They preferred to bypass the last rigours of war by joining people who lived without disturbances and fears, and in the prosperity of the white ‘peace’ and to observe the further development of the last, but decisive battle from a distance of the personal safety. The distance did depend on the prosperity they had achieved in the north. The higher the prosperity was with the hidden wealth, the bigger became the distance, but some hundred kilometres in general.

      As ‘people from the front’, they held themselves important when they discussed the ongoing war in the north and the consequences with the business people and friends and some drinks what could be expected for the country. They discussed these topics also in length with the stool neighbour at the bar counter what led by the regular repetitions to remarkable and advantageous business deals. Some houses in the village became vacant. The situation was used by the Filipinos who worked as teachers and motor mechanics when they moved from smaller houses
