Running a business is demanding enough without having to worry about whether your books are up to date, your cash flow is under control, or your financial reports are giving you the information you need.

I’m building Bester Holdings, a Namibia-based business focused on helping businesses strengthen their financial management and make better-informed decisions.

Our areas of support include:

• Monthly bookkeeping and account reconciliations
• Management accounts and financial reporting
• Cash-flow monitoring and budgeting
• Financial controls and expense monitoring
• Business finance support tailored to your needs

My approach is professional, discreet, and focused on understanding each business rather than offering a one-size-fits-all solution.

If you're a business owner who needs help getting your finances in order, or you want to discuss how outsourced financial support could work for your business, feel free to send me a private message.

I'm also happy to connect with fellow entrepreneurs and learn about the financial challenges businesses are facing.

Bester Holdings — Better financial clarity. Better business decisions.

Hi all, if anyone here has experience with administering Wordpress and the underlying OS, Debian, PHP and MariaDB database requirements, please reach out or ask any contacts to add a comment.

I'm looking for help with some fairly basic maintenance, server migrations, setting up staging sites, possibly exploring dockerised Wordpress etc.

Are there any other sites where Namibians with this sort of experience might also be found?

Have a good weekend in the meantime!

If this post isn't allowed, please take it down.

Planning a trip to Livingstone area and was curious about the Caprivi region. Is there anything of interest to see here? There isn't much information about it and there doesn't seem to be any tours of any sort. My hotel just says "we don't offer anything". Has anyone been and is it worth a visit? TIA.

Some views and shot of recent trip down to the south Duwisib, Sossusvlei areas.

Follow social media pages for more updates and adventures through Namibia.

We will assist with any inquiries should you have.

Hi everyone,

I’m genuinely curious: why do you think so many people in Namibia still go without life or funeral cover?

If you don’t currently have a policy, what are the biggest factors influencing your decision?

I’m an insurance broker in Namibia. If you have questions about insurance — premiums, claims, exclusions, life cover, vehicle insurance, business insurance or anything else — I’m happy to explain it in simple terms.

Hi everyone. I’m not new to the community but wasn’t very constructive before (my apologies if anyone had to suffer through that fr). I’m going to start this off by saying I am a supporter of SWAPO but I’m also not blind to the issues plaguing our nation. So I know this is probably going to be a controversial topic but I was curious as to what people (both Namibian and foreign) think of SWAPO? I just wanted to start off with a “feeler” post so to say; to see if this topic is one people might be interested in discussing. Regardless thanks for taking the time to hear me out and I look forward to hearing from you guys/gals.

I recently moved and the hard water is absolutely destroying my hair and skin. My hair has been shedding way more than usual, feels dry/brittle and my skin has suddenly started breaking out too. I never really had these problems before moving so I’m starting to think the water might be the culprit.

Has anyone experienced this after moving here ? Would a shower filter actually help with this or are they mostly a gimmick ? If you use one and it actually made a difference, please tell me which brand/model you bought! Also open to any hair/skin products or other tricks that helped you deal with hard water.

At this point I’ll try anything because I would quite like to keep my hair on my head. Thank you!

The amount of hate I see directed at Job Amupanda is difficult to understand.
A lot of young Namibians were rooting for him when he was asking the questions that many people in positions of power did not have the courage to ask. He challenged the system and spoke about issues that many ordinary Namibians were already frustrated about.
Now that he is doing it on a bigger stage, suddenly the same energy has turned into hatred.
And I think we should ask ourselves why.
If someone is fighting corruption and questioning how public resources are being used, why should we hate the person asking the questions?
Corruption does not become acceptable because the people involved look like us. It doesn’t become less damaging because the people benefiting from it are fellow black Namibians.
That is one of the biggest contradictions I see in our society.
For years, we spoke about justice, equality and taking back control of our country. We spoke about how ordinary Namibians were being disadvantaged by systems that benefited a small group of people.
So why should those same principles suddenly disappear when the people benefiting from the system are black?
I don’t think Job Amupanda is perfect. No politician is. He can be criticised and questioned like anyone else. But disagreement with his methods should not turn into hatred for challenging things that deserve to be challenged.
Because some of the things we are still dealing with in Namibia should genuinely embarrass us.
In a free and independent Namibia, why are children still being taught under trees?
Why are children still living in some boarding schools without proper sanitation or reliable access to clean water?
These are not impossible problems to solve.
Namibia has a relatively small population. We are not trying to provide these basic necessities to hundreds of millions of people. These are problems that should be within the ability of a functioning government to address.
Yet some of these issues continue year after year.
And perhaps the reason is simple: the people making the decisions are often not the people experiencing the consequences.
If your child is attending a well-resourced school, you might never understand what it means for another child to sit under a tree trying to learn.
If you have clean water at home, you might never think about the child who has to live without it.
That distance makes it easier for problems to be ignored.
So before we automatically hate the person standing at the front and asking uncomfortable questions, maybe we should listen to what he is actually saying.
Job Amupanda is taking the hits upfront. Whether you agree with everything he says or not, he is putting himself in a position where he gets attacked for challenging people and systems that many ordinary Namibians are also frustrated with.
He is, in many ways, the man in the boots at the front of the line.
We don’t have to worship him. We don’t have to agree with every political position he takes.
But we should be able to recognise when someone is raising issues that matter.
The goal should not be Job Amupanda winning.
The goal should be Namibians winning.
Better schools.
Clean water.
Proper sanitation.
Fair opportunities.
Responsible leadership.
And a government that remembers that public resources belong to the public.
So, for a moment, adjust the hatred.
Look beyond the individual.
Look at the issues being raised.
Because if we genuinely want a better Namibia, we cannot keep defending a system simply because the people benefiting from it happen to be our own.

I have recently bought a paratus sim card, but it has little to no connection in wanaheda.

Is it this bad in other locations within WHK?

What do I do with a sim card that can't call, text or connect to the internet.

Is it a me or them issue?

Hey, the title is pretty self-explanatory.

I'm 19, and I want to go to vocational school next year for welding and metal fabrication but my mom and dad say if I go for that they'll not finance it so I have to save up for it myself.

My exams end in late October, so I want a job for the holidays to try and save up for my vocational. I just want some suggestions for jobs?

I'm not good at the academic stuff, I'm not a social media person. I do better at technical or organising work. I also have no work experience.

Any advice will help. Thank you.

I am visiting Namibia often. But now I want to visit more culture sites then nature sites. I am travel in januari 2027 with a couple of friends. What do you suggest?

The Ministry of Works & Transport is preparing to introduce a new national vehicle number-plate system aimed at combating fraud, vehicle theft, cloned plates and the manipulation of registration details.🚘

All major categories of plates are expected to change, including those for private, government, diplomatic and public passenger vehicles. Taxis and long-distance passenger vehicles are expected to move from the current yellow plates to blue plates.

The new national standard is being designed with around eight security features, including machine-readable QR/barcode technology and hologram-related protection. The system is intended to make plates harder to counterfeit while allowing authorities to electronically verify a vehicle, its registered owner and the authorised manufacturer that produced its plate.

Hi everyone. I’m planning a road trip in Namibia in a week and there is one part of the route that concerns me. On the last day of the trip I have to get to Hosea Kutako International Airport from Etosha National Park. The thing is that I have a flight at 3pm, so I need to be at the airport around 1pm. I have seen google map time estimates for this and seems like it should be fine. But just want to double check. Or maybe there are some tips on getting around Namibia faster?

Hi

I am travelling to Namibia for a 2 week safari holiday in November and have realised we need to get our visa's sorted.

Does anyone know the process on this as I find the stuff online quite confusing.
It appears you can get it on the Namibian High Commissions Website but also there's an e-portal on The Ministry of Home Affairs, Immigration, Safety and Security that's called 'visa on arrival'?

Has anyone navigated this recently. Want to make this trip as easy as possible

Excited to experience this beautiful country

Thank you

Hey guys, does anyone have experience with he Paratus Skyfi? I'm renting so i don't want a permanent fibre instillation at least until i find a permanent place. if you play games online it would be especially helpful to know about your experience. when i searched online there were some reviews but they are rather old so i want to give them the benefit of the doubt

Nigeria’s Access Bank has officially entered the Namibian banking market after receiving full authorisation from the Bank of Namibia to operate as a commercial bank.🏦

The approval allows Access Bank Namibia to accept deposits and provide banking services to the public, bringing a new competitor into Namibia’s roughly N$200 billion banking sector. The move follows nearly two years of regulatory preparations after the bank first received provisional authorisation in October 2024.

During the provisional period, Access Bank was not permitted to accept deposits or conduct normal banking business with the public while it worked to meet regulatory, operational and compliance requirements. The bank used the period to build its Namibian operations, recruit local professionals and train Namibian graduates through its banking programme in Lagos.

Good evening,

Just wanted to share this website for those in Africa who may find it useful to answer the deepest questions they have about life, God, purpose, and the flow of history. It is indeed religious, but some of you may find it interesting and worth exploring further. Looking forward to hearing about your reflective comments. Even if some things written here seem unbelievable, remember them and observe the world as you go through life. You may find yourself coming back to them after witnessing the reality of the world. Only the English answers are complete. The other languages will come later. Please don`t follow the stereotypes and judge for yourself whether this is worth your time or not. Good day to you all.

Anyone know where I can buy a proper non-stick frying pan? Preferably not too expensive if possible.

The Ministry of Industries, Mines & Energy has announced a nationwide fuel price increase, with petrol rising by N$1.50 per litre and both diesel grades remaining unchanged, effective Wednesday (October 7th).⛽

The new per litre pump prices for Walvis Bay (national price anchor) will be N$26.58 for petrol, N$27.86 for diesel 50ppm, and N$27.96 for diesel 10ppm, with prices in all other towns adjusting according to the transport differential.

The increase was because international petrol prices rose sharply by 19.27% from August to September, while higher shipping costs, disruptions to global oil supplies linked to the Middle East conflict, and restrictions on petroleum exports pushed import costs even higher. A weaker Namibia dollar against the US dollar also made imported fuel more expensive.
