Presidents Message Your Chance to WIN Read this edition of NEWS@SAIA and find out how to WIN a Belgotex SDX Soft Reflection Rug from Top Carpets & Floors In This Edition President’s Message - It gives me a great pleasure to present to you this first newsletter, after the wonderful experience of our 2014 SAIA Convention, and our 2014 SAIA-Corobrik Awards evening which culminated in the long awaited Durban 2014 UIA Congress. The success of the afore-mentioned events, have once again proved that no matter how insurmountable challenges may seem, with focus, perseverance and courage, nothing cannot be conquered. I hope that everyone who was in Durban from the week-end of the 1st August until the end of the 2014 UIA Durban Congress returned home physically exhausted, but mentally recharged and intellectually enriched. On this score I wish to thank everyone within and outside our ranks, for ensuring that we did not allow ourselves to be an embarrassment in the face of the world but rather set higher benchmarks for future congresses. After all has been said and done, the whole world will join our own society in watching our performance as architects, beyond UIA Durban 2014, as to :- •how we are going to build upon the solid foundations anchored on resilience , ecology and values. •how we are going to ensure that the stimulus we gained recently is infused into the legacy we committed to create for our society in transition and for the sustainable future of our country’s built environment. We have undertaken to strengthen ties with our government structures, in ensuring that the principles contained in the National Development Plan become realizable during our time. We have further undertaken to play a far more proactive role, towards the implementation of BRICS (countries) infrastructure developmental initiatives. I, once again, appeal to all our membership to avail themselves in setting workable solutions towards these commitments. Read more online... saia.org.za/newsletters/SAIA_newsletter_September2014.pdf
