Fellow Namibians,
President of ANUK: Theresia !Gorases
I would like to use this opportunity to thank all Namibians, nationally and internationally who have shown interest and support in the operations of ANUK. It has been a challenge uniting our people, but you have all made it possible by being instrumental in being the leaders in assisting and indeed a partner in mobilizing the Namibian community and showing unity, not only in the UK but also across the globe.
The final draft of ANUK Constitution has been implemented. The document defines and outlines ANUK’s current structure, as well as our operational policy and practice. Copies are available on request.
The capacity in the organisation is growing, and our aim is to work towards meeting individual needs, by creating opportunities and empowering Namibian Nationals to achieve good quality life, both academically and socially. I am proud to say that Namibians are caring and loving people, and this you have demonstrated through showing unity and solidarity. Let us continue to show this through all our dealings.
ANUK recognises the work undertaken by individuals, and organisations that have contributed to sparking a new era in Namibian initiative. Organisations such as, Huisen Ltd, responsible for regrouping Namibians under a common umbrella, Hoadadi for making use of modern technology, empowering all Namibians all over the world to communicate at the click of a mouse, and spreading information about activities organised by ANUK.
I would also like to express my gratitude to the High Commissioner and Consulate, for the continual support and guidance. As Namibian Nationals in the UK and under the banner of the Association of Namibian Nationals in the UK (ANUK) we pledge our support to your policies of reconciliation and growth and promise that in our daily conduct we will strive to be good Ambassadors of our beautiful country, Namibia.
I thank you all.
Theresa !Gorases
President of ANUK and Republic of Northern Ireland.

artists missed out by a whisker and others scored big.
Omalaeti’s Tate Buti scooped the Artist of the Year Award – a coveted prize that since the inception of the Sanlam/NBC Music Awards six years ago, has only been won by two domineering artists; The Dogg – four times (2003, 2004, 2005, 2007) and Gazza – once (2006).
The man of the moment
Tate Buti, the self-confessed ‘King of Kwiku’, also bagged ‘Best Damara Punch/Ma/kaisa’, ‘Best Soukous/Rhumba/Kwiku’ and ‘Best Collaboration’. His win is considered a neutraliser for religious followers of both Gazza and The Dogg.
Manager of Omalaeti record label John Walenga applauded Tate Buti, but warned that there would be an uphill battle ahead. “I am happy for him,” he said.
“But, we have to remember that the public voted for them. This means that the public appreciate their work. What’s important now is what the winning artists will do with their win.”
However, Tate Buti dismissed suggestions that he had only managed to secure Artist of the Year because the two principals of the award - The Dogg and Gazza - were missing from this year’s event. “I can face anything in front of me,” he said.
David defeated Goliath
This year’s awards were akin to the biblical battle of David and Goliath, as fresh faces floored many of the established artists. Big achievers included Exit & Mushe, who scooped ‘Best Kwaito’, ‘Best Newcomer’ and ‘Best Duo/Group’. Another fresh face, MN Johnson, bagged ‘Best Reggae’ and ‘Best Gospel’ – Exit & Mushe and MN Johnson. Mawela Brigade scooped ‘Song of the Year’, whilst Chiwahlaw scored ‘Best Music Video’ and D-Jay ‘Best Hip Hop/Rap’ – flooring giants like Jackson Kaujeua, Phura, Tre Van De Kasie, Ees, D-Naff, Swartbaster, and Ompuff.
Barack Obama’s blackout
While most artists waited until Saturday for the after party at Club ObsessionZ - a celebratory event in honour of US President-elect Barack Obama – others including Tate Buti, PDK and Pedrito stooges headed to Independence arena, where the Omalaeti Crew staged a concert to celebrate their victory.
The occasion could not have come at a better time as it coincided with the release of PDK’s debut album ‘Emanya’.

NAMmodelz (Namibia’s SYMBOL OF Beauty)
NAMmodelz Advises on how to build up your PORTFOLIO…
In the Modelling Industry, a Portfolio is your CV.
Any model knows that a PORTFOLIO is the most important investment in her/ his Modelling Career. You need the right portfolio to approach professional agencies. High street make over shots or home shots are just not good enough and not acceptable.
Every SUCCESSFUL model can build up a portfolio over time, as you take on more jobs. The best way to update your portfolio is to UPDATE it every six months as, of course you change-your hair might be different and your weight might be fluctuating.
When you first start to get bookings, it does make sense to keep a second portfolio that contains your latest photos.
EXPRESSIONS
Well in some sense modelling is like ACTING. You are acting up to a camera, creating different emotions. I’m sure you have seen a great picture of a model in a Fashion magazine, and you see her in real life, you think “oh she looks so different”. Well... Agencies like versatility, Model who can master different looks and expressions to give agencies what agencies require.
INTERESTING FACT
Why Michael Jackson is such a legend with his moon walking… He mastered his dancing by practising in front of the mirror ALL THE TIME. This can be indeed a TIP for you, as practicing does, indeed make perfect. Try perfecting some POSES by practicing some expressions in front of the MIRROR. Models who can only master one pose, are LIMITING themselves. Check out some magazines and collect some tear sheets, you can always LEARN from other models.
