MESSAGE from Sr. JOHN S C LOH,
PRESIDENT, BALAI IKTHISAS MALAYSIA
Fellow Professionals,
This is the third message in the Professional Bulletin, and I bring you good news. The Right Honourable Dato’ Sri Najib Tun Abdul Razak, our Patron and Prime Minister of Malaysia has accepted our invitation to officially launch the Professional Forum (ProF) on a national scale on Tuesday 12 June, 2012 at Sri Perdana at Putrajaya. The time given is 4.30pm. and the details of the programme are being worked out. In view of the importance of the event, we are calling a meeting of all Presidents on Wednesday 9 May at 6pm at BIM Secretariat to form a Working Committee.
Since July 2011, the EXCO and the Board of Management (BOM) have been sitting at meetings to review past programmes and initiate new ones. There has been much sacrifice of time, and much exchange of ideas to set up an effective system whereby BIM can operate efficiently to play its role as the umbrella professional organisation, vision and mission envisaged since its founding in 1973. May I thank all of you for tolerating and hopefully accepting the changes which are good for enhancing the professional part of the important services sector of the economy. BIM must grow.
