PUBLISHER’S NOTE/EDITORIAL |
|
Welcome to the first
edition of the New Year. As we welcome
2012 with a feeling of anticipation
mixed with a palpable sense of awe, one
cannot help but marvel at how the future
loves to remain an enigma, a guess work,
an astrologer’s nightmare. So even
though 2011 did throw up many surprises
in places least expected it is difficult
to fathom what 2012 will resemble.
