Our sincere thanks
It seems a very long time ago now but I always wanted to
be a journalist after entering the world of local newspapers
as an editorial assistant (office junior) at the age of 16.
Being part of a team of people giving something and
providing a service to the community was and still is an
extremely rewarding feeling.
It’s about giving news to people. Providing a service.
Whether that be on a daily or weekly newspaper, trade
magazine, consumer magazine, website, radio or
television. All my journalist friends feel the same. We may
all be a little more cynical these days, but the reason for
being journalists still remains.
I was at Interwire in Atlanta, USA, when Osama Bin
Laden was killed. I actually went around CNN on the
tour and as I looked into the newsroom at editors
reading the copy coming in from all over the world,
I wondered if the man I was watching had been the first
in the newsroom to learn of the Al Qaeda leader’s death,
outside of Government officials. There are not many
jobs where you can get that close to events happening in
the world.
Similarly, on a far more local scale, I was working at my
first paper when it celebrated its centenary. No small feat
that, and the warmth with which we were received by
people in the town still lingers in the memory.
So it is with no small amount of pride that I sit in the
editor’s chair at Wire & Cable ASIA as it celebrates its
21st anniversary. To have played a part in producing
something regularly, providing a service to its own
community, to me, reminds me of why exactly I joined
this industry.
The very fact that we are celebrating our anniversary is
down to you: our readers,
subscribers and advertisers.
Without you there would be
no anniversary.
You are the industry that Wire
& Cable ASIA serves and it is
with our grateful thanks that
you keep letting us have the
news and support to keep us
number one in providing you
with the service we take pride
in delivering.
