MARCH SUPER DINNER

With Bernie Fraser


   

Shoalhaven Business Chamber helds its first Super Dinner for 2010 at Worrigee House Reception Centre on Wednesday the 17th of March with guest speaker Bernie Fraser delivering a very informative address to the crowd of around 100 guests.

The evening started off with a welcome from Clive Brooks the Chairman of the Shoalhaven Business Chamber Events Committee.

Guests were treated to a couple of drinks on arrival and then once all had been seated Michael Bassingthwaighte the CEO of Peoplecare Health Insurance gave a presentation about what their organisation has to offer the people and businesses of the Shoalhaven.  Michael also made mention of Peoplecare's commitment to the partnership that was being forged between his organisation and the Shoalhaven Business Chamber.

Raj from Silos Estate had the honourable pleasure of intrducing Bernie Fraser to the stage for his presentation.  Bernie went on to deliver a presentation about Australia's economic future and how the current government expenditure (Stimulis package) could but probably wouldn't effect our children and grand children.  Bernie had a very optimistic and positive outlook for the future of Australia, but there were conditions.  He made it very clear that our future prosperity would clearly hinge on the decision makers (our Politicians) of the day.  Bernie also went onto comment on the US economy and predicted that the US would need to go through some years of a reduction in lifestyle to reign in their current level of debt.  Likewise he was also concerned about the Japan economy saying it was in worse shape than the US.

"Australia is well positioned globally" Bernie said relating to our ties with the emerging economies, which he sees as the future global economical powerhouses.

In closing Bernie took questions from the audience which capped off a great evening.  Michelle Miran thanked Bernie for his very informative address and presented him with a gift of Silos Estate Wine.  Michelle also thanked Peoplecare Health Insurance for their Sponsorship on the night and last but not least thanked Megan Cleary from Industry and Investment NSW for their continued support for Guest Speakers at our events.


Shoalhaven Business Chamber would like to thank all the business people who attended and we look forward to seeing you all at our next function which is our Business after Hours on the 21st of April, hosted by NOWRA TOYOTA at NOWRA TOYOTA located on the Prince Highway at South Nowra.
