WOKMAN GENERAL MANAGER CHANGE OVER

Released: 13 October, 2010

By: Neal Stewart - Director PNG Operations

Micheal Elton advised JDA Management of his resignation from the company and completed his service on the 29th October, 2010

During his term of managing Wokman we have witnessed a period of substantial revenue and profit growth within the Company. At the commencement of his stay with Wokman, Michael was able to embark on a successful rebuilding phase that has seen a steady growth in business and a re-emergence of the JDA Wokman brand within the various business sectors in PNG.

Today, of course, our Company is strongly positioned to capitalise on the good work the Wokman Team has achieved, especially over the past three years. And I make special note here that our progress has been a TEAM effort. The individual efforts within our Teams remains first class and this of course manifests itself into effective group effort and results as our Team Leaders make good decisions and demonstate sound leadership.

The challenge ahead of us now is to continue to raise the standards of our service. There is little doubt that the yardstick by whihc we are judged is THE QUALITY OF OUR SERVICE. We can take all the Job Orders in the world but if we do not deliver QUALITY and COMMERCIALLY COMPETITIVE SERVICES, then our marketers may as well go and play golf and not waste their time.

While we are losing the services of Michael, we are fortunate to have gained the services of Stephen Grey who will replace Michael at the end of October. Stephen has had substancial PNG experience between 1961 and 1981 and has subsequently been the Managing Director of diverse business enterprises in Victoria, Australia.

I take this opportunity to thank Michael for his efforts in managing JDA Wokman so effectively and wish him and Susie good health and best wishes for whatever lies ahead.

I also wish to welcome Stephen aboard and trust he thoroughly enjoys the ride.
