The NEM GMD commended the leadership of the Institute for organising such wonderful event year in, year out, which aside of improving “our physical and mental well-being, also affords us the opportunity to unwind, market our various companies & products to the public, socialise and network among ourselves for the overall benefit of the industry.”

He enjoined all the participants “to mingle and share ideas among ourselves, so that we can enjoy the benefits of this event and to foster synergy and harmony among us all present here. As we continue this program, I urge you all to dance, sit back, relax and enjoy the events.”

“We are very delighted to do so with every sense of humility and deep sense of honour and we are ever ready to host you all, anytime.”
