Your previous Committee ended its Mterm with the AGM of 26th March. I would like to thank all those who served on the Committee and various sub-committees in the 2012/13 year. This has been the hardest working group of people I have had the privilege of serving with and they leave the Club much better for having served. I hope that you will join me in thanking them. For my part, I know that not all decisions have suited all members and in all humility, I ask your indulgence for any of my lapses. At the same time, I would like to thank Alan Jones, our General Manager and his team for the hard yards they have put in thus far. We start now with a new Committee and we are soon to set up a fresh set of sub-committees. As before, as I request the various Committee members to take up responsibilities for the various portfolios, I will be urging them to propose as many members to be involved in the running of the Club. The Polo season has begun, and our first club tournament took place on 23 & 24 March. In line with our goal of raising the profile of our monthly tournaments, the tournament was sponsored, with Estancia Jagorawi of Indonesia as our main sponsor. In addition, we were able to accommodate all club players who wished to participate in the 3 matches. The event was filmed and will be aired on Star Sports. A very full season has been planned for 2013 and I will be asking the new Polo Captain to take on the calendar put together for the year and to make this yet another banner year for Singapore polo. In the Riding Section, I am pleased to report that we have made some progress towards building up our team of instructors, with a verbal acceptance from 1 full time instructor with experience in top stables and riding schools in the USA, Australia, and the Caribbean. In addition, 2 permanent part-time Singaporean instructors with experience teaching children and adults joining us. We are also completing the purchase of additional horses and ponies scheduled to arrive in May. With a full contingent of instructors and horses the riding section will be at full capacity and enable substantial reduction of waiting members. With your approval at the AGM for the Committee to work towards the completion of the NEP, the new Committee will take on this responsibility as well as continue the improvement of facilities that you saw in the 2012/13 year. I would like to thank all members who attended the AGM of the Club. It is important that you make your views known and also exercise your right to vote. Your vote makes a difference and I encourage all members to use the Club and also to make your views known. In the coming year, I will continue to encourage greater transparency, governance and professionalism from my fellow Committee members and Club management as we create a Club for all. Thank you for your support.

Unusually, polo insiders have been loath to make predictions. Even the professionals chose to sit on the fence when contributing to the annual Polo Times predictions for the season. “So many teams and combinations have changed that it is difficult to know how it’s going to turn out,” says Max Routledge, the 21-year-old five- goal professional and one of the Eng- lish game’s rising stars.

  • Different Industries and Sectors of Singapore
    A COUNTRY STUDY AND REPORT AND COMBINED SUMMARY OF SEMESTER IV WORK ON Different Industries and Sectors of Singapore Submitted to Gujarat Technological University IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENT OF THE AWARD FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF BUSINESS ASMINISTRATION Submitted by ___________________________________________________________________________ ___ Marwadi Education Foundation’s Group of Institutions MBA PROGRAMME Affiliated to Gujarat Technological University Ahmedabad May, 2012 SUMMARY OF WORK DONE IN SEM-4 AVIATION IN SINGAPORE MEANING Aviation is the design, development, production, operation, and use of aircraft, especially heavier-than-air aircraft. Aviation is derived from avis, the Latin word for bird. HISTORY There are early legends of human flight such as the story of Icarus, and Jamshid in Persian myth, and later, somewhat more credible claims of short-distance human flights appear, such as the flying automaton of Archytas of Tarentum (428–347 BC), the winged flights of Abbas IbnFirnas (810–887), Eilmer of Malmesbury (11th century), and the hot-air Passarola of BartolomeuLourenço de Gusmão (1685– 1724). The modern age of aviation began with the first untethered human lighter-than-air flight on November 21, 1783, in a hot air balloon designed by the Montgolfier brothers. In 1799 Sir George Cayley set forth the concept of the modern airplane as a fixed- wing flying machine with separate systems for lift, propulsion, and control. Early dirigible developments included machine-powered propulsion (Henri Giffard, 1852), rigid frames (David Schwarz, 1896), and improved speed and maneuverability (Alberto Santos-Dumont, 1901). Great progress was made in the field of aviation during the 1920s and 1930s, such as Charles Lindbergh's solo transatlantic flight in 1927, and Charles Kingsford Smith's transpacific flight the following year.
