9. SOLDER SUB-COMMITTEE
The Sub-Committee provides solder company members of the Association a platform for discussion on matters of common and mutual interests. The meetings of the Sub-Committee have benefited its members as they are provided with the opportunity to share experiences and expectations of the market for their solder products and prices, trends in metal prices and the market, as well as deliberate on issues and impediments facing the sub-sector.
During 2015, the Sub-Committee on Solder met a total of three times. A major subject matter which the Sub-Committee continued to deliberate last year concerns the market outlook for solder products, locally and internationally. Other matters discussed during the year include the prevailing electrical and electronic (E&E) sector’s demand for solder, R&D on solder, development in tin technologies and minimum wage.10. SEMINARS
11. NEWSLETTER
The Newsletter published during 2015 continued to improve in terms of layout, contents, and advertising support. This was to enhance its readership value to members and the public, and as an additional source of income for the Association. The Newsletter Editorial Sub-Committee, formed to oversee the production of the Newsletter, met four times during the year. It provided suitable guidance to the Secretariat in the compilation of the publication and the formulation of strategies for strengthening support of the Newsletter.12. OTHER ACTIVITY
