SAJ returns executive en bloc
Roger Hinds to serve second term as President
 2009,
December 7: Roger Hinds has been returned unopposed to serve as president of
the Shipping Association of Jamaica (SAJ) for a second year. Hinds and the
members of the SAJ's managing committee were returned en bloc during the
association's annual general meeting held on December 4.
The SAJ president
affirmed the association's dedication to continue to work with stakeholders in
the industry to grow and expand port operations. "We are committed to making the
Port Community System a reality for the industry. It is an expensive proposition
and will take a lot of work, but we are committed to the establishment of the
system which will be the platform for the Trade Community System and a vehicle
to the future," Hinds said.
He added that the
clean-up of Port Bustamante is also high on the agenda as the SAJ moves to
create an environment suitable for the world-class facilities at the Port of
Kingston.
"We are in the process
of setting the stage for an upturn in the future. If we continue along this
path, the future is very bright," Hinds said. Hinds also noted that the SAJ
would be placing more emphasis on labour management as part of the way forward.
Hinds, who has 25
years of experience in the shipping industry, was elected as president of the
SAJ at the association's annual general meeting last year. He leads a group of
distinguished shipping executives who form the managing committee. They are: Kim
Clarke, vice-president of the SAJ and managing director of Maritime and
Transport Services; Michael Bernard, immediate past president of the SAJ and
director, Shipping Services Stevedoring Limited; Harry Maragh, chairman and
chief executive officer (CEO) of Lannaman and Morris Group; Grantley Stephenson,
chairman and CEO of Kingston Wharves Limited; Charles Johnston, executive
chairman, Jamaica Freight and Shipping; Joseph Lowe, group operations manager,
Maritime and Transport Services; Corah-Ann Robertson Sylvester, chief executive
officer, Seaboard Jamaica Limited; Denise Lyn Fatt, managing director of Freight
Handlers Limited; Evroy Johnson, chief financial officer of Carib Star Shipping
Limited and Trevor Riley, general manager of the SAJ.
