Windhoek — A TEAM of Scientology volunteers is conducting disaster relief training for organisations and public services in the Oshana Region.
Eben van Loggerenberg, one of the volunteers, says the programme started in Windhoek in August before moving on to the coast and the North.
He said the training was being offered free of charge to emergency services, Police, Red Cross workers, hospitals and other organisations.
The volunteers are selling Scientology booklets too.
He said from Namibia, they will go to other SADC countries such as Zambia, Malawi and Mozambique before returning to South Africa.

Hi Sirs,
I fear that you fell on the famous advertisings of Scientology. Scientologists are in no way specialists in any sort of disasters, except the bank accounts disasters: they can really do such disaster. The only main purpose that scientologists have behind their heads is simple: money. Get money, more money... and they go to disasters areas so as to take some contacts with the men of importance there - police, army, government people, journalists. Don't fell for it. See the truth about the cult in www.xenu.net and manyn other websites describing how the cult gets millions from unsuspecting victims. I was a scientology leader long ago. I know what I'm speaking of. Roger Gonnet France www.antisectes.net
