Amalgamated Family, good evening,
As we gather here tonight, to celebrate the joyous season of Christmas, I am filled with gratitude and appreciation for each and every one of you. This occasion not only marks the festive spirit that surrounds us but also provides a wonderful opportunity to reflect on the incredible journey we’ve had throughout the year and recognize service in excellence.
I stand before you not just as a chairman, but as someone deeply moved by the unwavering dedication and hard work exhibited by our exceptional A team. Your continued loyalty has been the cornerstone of our success, and for that, I extend my heartfelt thanks. In the face of challenges, you have exemplified resilience and commitment, driving our organization towards new heights.
Today is also a special day as we come together to honour individuals who have demonstrated outstanding contribution and commitment through the Chairman’s Yearly Award. Your dedication has not only elevated our organization but has set a standard for excellence that inspires us all. I commend each recipient for their remarkable achievements and thank them for their invaluable service.
As we look back on the year, let us not forget the source of our strength. In seeking success, we must recognize the importance of divine blessings. I urge you to join me in expressing our gratitude for God’s continued blessings and protection, without which our accomplishments would not be possible.
In the coming year, let us aspire to unlock our full potential and advance our careers. I encourage each of you to embrace self-development and foster a spirit of collaboration. Remember that as leaders within our organization, we have a responsibility not only to ourselves but to our fellow colleagues and officers of all ranks and classifications. Let us strive to create an environment where everyone can thrive and grow.
Please allow me to update the team on the outcomes of our diversification initiatives. This year, we have extended our acquisition activities in Barbados through Promotech, now encompassing operations in Guyana and St. Lucia. These ventures specifically focus on the IT sector. Additionally, our guarding operations in Jamaica have expanded under the ASSL Security Services brand. We’ve also introduced an innovative approach to cash management services through ECHE Limited.
Furthermore, it’s worth noting that we are actively engaged in various agricultural projects in the East, where we are cultivating green peppers and cherry tomatoes as part of our diversification strategy. Our interests extend to the hospitality and entertainment sectors, as you would already know through our partnership with the Marriott worldwide hotel chain and in response to the contemporary global risk landscape, we are placing significant emphasis on Cyber Security through our brand Precision Cyber Security Company.
It is crucial that, as we pursue our goals, we remain mindful of those who are less fortunate. I implore you to extend your hands in every possible human way, showing compassion and understanding to the needs of others. Respect and recognition for every individual should be at the core of our interactions. Let the word Empathy be included and influence each of your decisions and lets us consider the phrase of “Walk in their Shoes “ for 2024.
While each of us plays a distinct role, it is essential to understand that we are all integral pieces of the success puzzle. Our collective efforts contribute not only to the prosperity of our organization but also to the enrichment of each of our daily lives.
As we approach the festive season, let us embrace the spirit of Christmas and the anticipation of a new year filled with possibilities. I extend my warmest wishes to you and your families, and I am excited about the regional expansion that awaits us in 2024. A special welcome to all the new employees who have joined us this year – your presence enriches our organizational family.
May the joy and warmth of the season be with you all. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Sincerely,
Dr Michael Aboud Chairman
