Patrick, who was re-elected for a 10th term as President, noted that the Club did well last year as it organised a broader range of activities for members. He said the Club’s revised Constitution, which was endorsed at the AGM, will free funds and provide the Management Committee with the flexibility to offer programmes and organise events that will benefit more media professionals. New membership categories – student and social – have been introduced. He added that the Club continues to be financially strong and the incoming committee will continue to look at ways to make good use of the Club’s resources to serve our growing membership and provide members with meaningful activities.
