Proposed amendments to South African Private Security Industry Regulatory Authority (PSIRA) regulations will “basically control the possession of firearms everywhere” - and will “constrain the ability of the security industry to respond to potentially dangerous situations”. This is the warning from attorney Martin Hood who is concerned that there's “some terminology in these proposals that are ideological - and I think that they've overstepped the mark, and there's going to be consequences for them that may be very difficult for them to deal with”. Hood says the government's view of the private security industry as a threat is “completely unjustified…The private security industry is not going to be the spearhead of a revolution in this country. It actually stopped that in July of 2021.” He urges the public to lodge objections to the proposed amendments, and adds: “the view of the industry is that these proposals are unlawful.…the industry and broader society may have no option but to take them to court because the consequence of them coming into effect in the way that they are will be an adverse consequence on the ability of all of us to protect ourselves and our assets”.

As the nation mourns the deaths of 21 people in three separate shooting incidents at various taverns at the weekend, the silence around gun control in SA's political arena is coming to the fore. A report by the Global Initiative Against Transnational Organised Crime released late last year, found that SA has an estimated 2.35-million illegal firearms in circulation. Most of these weapons become instruments of violent crime and come directly from state departments and domestic homes.  Host Mike Siluma holds a gun-control conversation with Global Initiative Against Transnational Organised Crime researcher Jenni Irish-Qhobosheane, Gun Free SA representative and former SAPS commander Jeremy Vearey and firearms legal expert Martin Hood

Martin Hood, gun law expert and attorney

Gun law expert Martin Hood says the newly revived legislative proposal that will prevent South Africans from getting a firearm licence on the basis that they need the weapon for self-defence is radical and will have far-reaching consequence. There is widespread anger over the legislative proposal drawing condemnation from a number of groups.

This episode starts out with Amy asking Wes for some tips on using mountain huts while hiking: What time to arrive, whether you should book meals, if you need reservations, and how mountain huts on Mount Fuji differ from other mountain hut accommodations.They also talk about hot springs (onsen) at mountain huts, or near the hiking trails. Some onsen have mixed bathing (men and women together) and they discuss some tips on when to cover up with a swim suit (or not). Amy talks about her embarrassing moment in a mixed bathing hot spring, and Wes talks about an awkward time having to wear a special robe to cover up for the gods. They also discuss tattoos in the hot springs, the real reason behind the "no-tattoos" rule, and what to do if you have inked skin and want to take a hot spring bath during your trip in the mountains.Since your trip is bound to involve trains to get to places, Wes gives tips on riding crowded trains when using the Japan Rail Pass.Amy asks Wes what he considers the must-see hikes in Japan as well as a couple favorites off the beaten path. Amy, a trail runner, asks which trails highlighted in the book would be good for fast-packing.The author gives details about his guidebook, Hiking and Trekking the Japan Alps and Mount Fuji, including the book's physical properties: full-color glossy pages, full-color maps and a waterproof jacket cover. He and co-author Tom Fay wanted the guide to appeal to long-term Japan residents as well as visitors, so they insisted on bilingual maps, transport information, and the inclusion of kanji character names to help decipher sign-posts.Lastly, Wes recounts the history behind the hyakumeizan, "Japan's 100 mountains," which he started climbing in 2002 over a series of holidays and weekends, and completed in 2008. This challenge, on many a Japan climber's bucket list, was inadvertently created by Fukada Kyūya in 1964 when his book Nihon Hyakumeizan (Japan's 100 Mountains) became popular.Later, the book was translated into English by Martin Hood for University of Hawaii Press.See Wes's "Hiking in Japan" website for an online guide to hiking the hyakumeizan.The Books on Asia Podcast is sponsored by Stone Bridge Press, publisher of fine books on Asia for over 30 years. Subscribe to the podcast here.
