DA Ward 37 Candidate<br />

elect Dharmesh Dhaya<br />

explains how small<br />

changes can make a big<br />

difference in the world.<br />

WE all want a better world yet<br />

most people are<br />

overwhelmed when it comes<br />

to planning and following<br />

through with their plans.<br />

Ward 37 which comprises<br />

KWT and the surrounding<br />

areas is a big challenge for<br />

me. It covers many different<br />

areas and types of<br />

communities. As your DA<br />

candidate it is my duty and<br />

indeed my responsibility to<br />

visit and talk to as many of my<br />

supporters as possible. Even<br />

more important is for me to<br />

talk to those that oppose me.<br />

Politics is about give and take.<br />

One day I can be talking to a<br />

business owner right here in<br />

King discussing politics and<br />

looking for solutions to help<br />

them grow their business and<br />

how I can help achieve that<br />

once in office. That same<br />

afternoon I could be deep in<br />

a rural area outside town<br />

meeting a group of village<br />

elders looking at basic<br />

service delivery issues. My<br />

mandate of giving people<br />

freedom, fairness and<br />

opportunity takes me far and<br />

wide.<br />

There are times when I am<br />

completely overwhelm and<br />

indeed don’t know where to<br />

start my day or even how to<br />

tackle a problem be it large or<br />

small, simple or complicated.<br />

I work on the premise that<br />

small changes can<br />

collectively lead to big<br />

change globally.<br />

If I can help at least 1 person<br />

a day as your candidate and<br />

in turn that person can help<br />

another, then within a month<br />

I would have made a<br />

tangible positive difference<br />

to my community.<br />

Helping to clean up a street,<br />

doing door to door in<br />

Tolofenyi or even sitting in a<br />

community meeting right<br />

here in King can at times be<br />

overwhelming. Proper<br />

planning and working in<br />

small manageable junks is<br />

how things get done. A diary<br />

in my life has become a<br />

priority.<br />

Politics is a brutal game and<br />

it will get even tougher come<br />

the 3rd of August elections.<br />

Politicians will offer you the<br />

world in order to secure your<br />

vote but I urge you to<br />

question them and indeed<br />

question me. Ask me what is<br />

my plan to deliver on my<br />

promises. Get a detailed<br />

breakdown and see how my<br />

small changes will lead to<br />

bigger and better things in<br />

our ward.<br />

Hold me accountable and<br />

indeed all politicians. If in the<br />

past they have not delivered<br />

or made promises just to get<br />

your vote and then forget<br />

about you, then perhaps it is<br />

time for change.<br />

After all, spring cleaning your<br />

house is a good way to get<br />

rid of all the junk. Who says<br />

you can’t do that with our<br />

political system?<br />

As always, I am at your<br />

service. If you have any<br />

queries, suggestions or<br />

would like to organise an<br />

event – please get hold of<br />

me.
