“We are obviously very excited with this award … it has taken a lot of hard
work from everyone involved in the project, and the end result is something
that we and our customers can be very proud of,” said Rony.
“This is a great reward for everyone involved in the project. Rony and I
both had a vision for this project, and it is very exciting to be in the
final stages of completion and see our vision become reality,” said Kobi.

of Cosy Beach, built on a 5912sqm site that incorporates over fifty percent
green area.
The awards didn’t stop there for the Nova Group, as Nova Ocean View’s 79

Highly Commended Certificates in both the Best Affordable Condo Development
(Resort) and Best Boutique Condo Development (Eastern Seaboard) categories.

AFG celebrates its 5th birthday at the Amari
Inaugural President George Strampp delighted
everyone with a most amusing video detailing his several years at TRW.
Dr. Iain Corness
The Automotive Focus Group (AFG) celebrated its 5th birthday with a
stylish party held in the Amari’s Ice Bar. All the four past presidents were
there, but long-standing Secretary Maurice Bromley and his wife Renita were
in South Africa and were unable to get flights arranged in the time frame
necessary.
MC for the evening, Dr. Iain, introduced the presidents in turn, who were
able to tell the members of the advances in the group during their tenure at
the top. Inaugural President George Strampp delighted everyone with a most
amusing video detailing his several years at TRW, and admitted that he only
agreed to take on the onerous job of organizing the AFG because he was
several sheets to the wind at the time of asking!
Following George was Mike Diamente, who had led the AFG for almost three
terms and who described the gradual breakaway from the Australian Chamber of
Commerce, with the AFG finally able to stand on its own two feet.
The third president was the quiet Australian James Beeson who spoke on how
he so unexpectedly went from being a committee member to the top job. James
said, “Every committee member has, since the inception of the AFG, been a
non paid volunteer and the running and the reputation of the professionalism
of the AFG has grown to be well respected by the BOI and other organizations
and the Chambers of Commerce who service Thailand.”
Finally the fourth and incumbent president, Uli Kaiser, spoke briefly on the
future aims of the AFG, and suggested everyone descend on the Amari buffet.
It was a fun event, which everyone who attended did enjoy, and there was
even some high-level networking going on as well!
