Their efforts have directly contributed to the growth and stability of the SAIRAC institution .”
Open letter : Thank you SAIRAC RE : Fellows lunch : 21 October 2022
At the risk of appearing presumptuous , I would like to thank the Johannesburg committee for the luncheon they provided recently in honor of the Fellows of the Institute .
It is gratifying to know that our past efforts and involvement in the Institute are appreciated and acknowledged in this way annually .
The luncheon furthermore provides the ideal opportunity to “ meet and greet ” in a relaxed atmosphere and to renew old acquaintances .
In my humble opinion , I don ’ t think there is another Institute that shows their appreciation more often than SAIRAC for past services rendered . Kindly accept our grateful thanks .
Signed
