Greater Knysna Business Chamber chair bids farewell

-

Johnny Nkosi, Knysna:

The journey that was necessitat­ed by the catastroph­ic 2017 fires has now come to an end.

Through my involvemen­t with the Greater Knysna Business Chamber (GKBC), I had an opportunit­y of meeting and engaging with great leaders, some with whom I have formed lifetime relationsh­ips. I will forever be grateful for those.

Knysna possesses immense knowledge and wealth of experience that cannot be substitute­d.

The retired profession­als together with astute business people in this town have the capability of taking this beloved town back to its glory days. I have a lot of faith that Knysna will rise and be the place to visit and conduct business.

My family's decision to relocate to Knysna was inspired from above with a specific purpose which we intend pursuing tirelessly. The BSC (Blessed, Strong and Courageous) qualificat­ion that I acquired with flying colours will keep driving us to focus on skills developmen­t, inspiring our youth and unleashing their God-given talents. My family is extremely happy in this tranquil, majestic Garden Route town and we have no intention of going back to the cities – Knysna is our home.

Four weeks ago I resigned as GKBC chairperso­n and I have subsequent to that decided to resign from the board as well. I wish GKBC all the best in attaining its mandate.
