Chairman's Address
 
   
 
Dear Cooperative Friends,
I am pleased to welcome all representatives of co-operative milk societies associated with the Union present in the 59th Annual General Meeting of the Union and present before you the Annual Accounts of the year 2009-10 and Audited Report duly approved by the Board of Directors and certified by Auditor.

World is under the cloud of recession. Business of every sphere is affected by extreme
recessional wave. So, due to rising unemployment, bread of the people is getting seized.
And price of essential commodities are touching sky-high level. As a result, it has become
very difficult to link two ends for common people. Under such unspeakable and agonizing
circumstances, our cattle population has maintained the stable smile on the faces of our
cattle owners in the villages. In brief, I want to say that we could bestow the courage and strength to run the livelihood to our resourceful cattle owners in this time of recession; for which I bow to the almighty God. I heartily congratulate all honorable milk producers of the district, consumers, well wishers and employees who are responsible for unique and eyeful progress of the Sumul Union.
