While the daggers out in the media for some prominent people caught up in the Panama papers saga, and their woes, let us digress from that issue and concentrate on ABPL’s forthcoming award ceremony in appreciation of regular letter writers.
Summer will soon be upon us and and many of us will want to make plans for the well deserved holiday to a sun kissed spot somewhere away from the cold and damp climes of these shores! In order that our holiday dates do not clash with the award ceremony, it will be helpful if we have an inclination of when the ceremony will take place. This would also provide us with an opportunity to put the face to the names which we are so accoustmed to.
We can then share views and opinions face to face and also meet representatives of both AV and GS. I would be glad to make acquaintace with CB, Rupanjana, Kamalbhai and others while enjoying ABPL’s hospitality in the form of a cuppa at Hoxton House!
I must reiterate that ABPL has been at the forefront in recognising talent and rewarding achivement. Asian Achievers’ Awards (AAA) and Asian Voice Charity Awards (AVCA), among many others, are examples of this! This pioneering initiative is not matched by any other weekly magazine or newsletter, be it in English or in other languages.
It is therefore appropriate for AV and GS to reward their letter writers with a certificate of merit.
