The SCL(S)’s 1st Networking Cocktail of 2013 was held at the Modern-European restaurant “Chef D'Table” located at Chijmes, a strategic location for fellow members to mingle and network with invited guests and non-members from the construction industry, as well as the SCL(S) Council facilitating the acquaintances between the guests and members.

On behalf of the Chairman Anil Changaroth who had to be away on official business, the immediate past chairman Chris Nunns did a splendid job by giving  a warm welcome and appreciation speech peppered with his wry sense of humour to break the ice and get the crowd going. The event was attended by the President of TUCSS and many members from TUCSS fraternity, including QC/Council member from SCL(UK) and the new President of the Light House Club.

The networking event had a record turnout this year, and this is a testament that the relationship with the now expanded MOU partners is bearing fruit with far greater participation and interaction between SCL(S) and the industry partners.

The evening rain did not dampen the spirits as there was enough of the latter going around. The free flow of wine, beer and a good spread of food coupled with great service and a relaxed ambience made the crowd mingle freely, and made the evening a truly enjoyable one.
