In his brief response, he expressed his utmost gratitude for the opportunity of being entrusted with the enormous responsibility of leading the Association and pledged to fulfil his mandate with total commitment.

“Colleagues, as I speak to you now, we have a lot of policy issues on our table. There are a number of issues facing industry and I know you are expecting more work towards a good business environment that will stimulate growth of Industry, we will continue to study the environment and give our expert position, believing that with your support, we will achieve greater height in our advocacy efforts”.
