UCG member meets President of Pakistan

Filed under UCG-Germany

Some hard work and sacrifice has "born fruit" for UCG-Holland member Rolf de Jong.

On April 27, 2006 Pakastani President Rolf de Jong with Pakastani PresidentPervez Musharraf (on the left in the picture) officially opened his country’s first large scale greenhouse production facility, operated by the "Bioblitz" company. Bioblitz’s CEO, Safdar. K. Akhtar (middle), is shown with President Musharraf and Dutch UCG member Rolf de Jong, whose home is in Steenbergen, the Netherlands. Rolf has been living in Pakistan since the summer of 2005. He was hired by Bioblitz to manage the construction and running of the greenhouse project because of his many years of experience in this field in the Netherlands. As is the case in any assignment in a new country, Rolf had to "learn the ropes" in Pakistan, dealing with delays in deliveries and other problems in completing the construction of the greenhouse facility. But all has gone well, as evidenced by the grand opening. Congratulations Rolf!
