Dear members,
At the AGM last Tuesday night we said "Goodbye" to 4 retiring Trustees; David Keen, Mahendra Gursahani, Katerina Hickey and Michael Whiting. We thank them for their service to the BCCP.
There were 6 candidates for the 4 vacant positions and consequently an election was held. The 4 Trustees elected were: William Bailey, Chris Nelson, Francis Del Val and Alex Willats. We thank all of the candidates for their interest in serving as Trustees.
The full Board of Trustees of the Chamber for 2014/15:
Roger Lamb
Simon Bewlay
Trixie Whyte
Wick Veloso
Francis Del Val
Steve Burns
William Bailey
Chris Nelson
Alex Willats
Felix Sy – Corporate Secretary
April Lacson – Assistant Corporate Secretary
Iain Mansfield, UKTI Trade Director – ex-officio
Nicholas Thomas, British Council – ex-officio
We will be updating the website as soon as possible to reflect these changes to the Board.
In recognition of their services to the BCCP over many years, the Board had resolved to award Lifetime membership to Chris Glynn and Robert Burroughes. They were presented with their Certificates by the Chairman, Roger Lamb.
There were 3 presentations on Chamber activities by the Chairman, Treasurer and General Manager. These will shortly be on the website in the Members only area for your review.
We thank all those who attended for making the evening a great success. The Dusit Thani hotel provided the excellent food, and the wine flowed freely.
And finally, many thanks to HM Ambassador Asif Ahmad for hosting the event in his residence, and for his ongoing involvement and support of the Chamber as our Patron.
Best regards,
Chris Boughton
General Manager
