Must read

Alam Group of Company’s Ali Alam has been elected to the Uganda Manufacturers Association board. Alam was elected to the board in an AGM held on the 2nd December 2021 at the UMA Multipurpose Hall, Lugogo.

The elected board will serve from 2021 to 2023. Alam welcomed the vote of confidence by UMA members by the election.

The businessman said that their companies have endeavoured to serve Uganda through the tough COVID-19 times over the last two years and this trust in their service means a lot.

He said that while the economy has been hit hard by inflation, his challenge and the UMA board will be to push the government to enact policies that can help businesses find their feet again.

Alam said that Uganda has had two years of challenges but with the on-going COVID-19 vaccination exercise, there is light at the end of the tunnel for businesses.

He said on the UMA board, he will strive to encourage the government to help business owners meet the COVID-19 regulations for reopening to the public.

Alam revealed that Alam Group of Companies speedily adopted the measures that the Ministry of Health recommended to avoid or limit the spread of the pandemic in 2020. As a result, the group had been able to keep much of its workforce at work with few cases of interruption due to the pandemic. He offered to share this knowledge with the board and country when given an opportunity.

Alam promised to serve to the best of his ability.
