A year gone by: Much more needs to be done
Dr K K Aggarwal
National President IMA
Today is the last day of the year 2016 and as we stand on the threshold of a new year, it’s usual to take stock of the year gone by and reflect upon what we have been able to achieve. It’s also a time when we look ahead to the New Year, full of hope and determination to further achieve our goals. My journey with the IMA has been more than two decades long. And, over these years, I have taken on progressing roles in the Association culminating in my role as the National President. It’s a role that brings with it huge responsibilities and challenges and as I embark on this new journey, I do so with your support and contributions. The strength of IMA lies in our unity and common commitment for the betterment of our profession, regarded perhaps the most noble of all professions. True to the theme ‘IMA 1 Voice’, I am sure that we can all speak as ‘one’ for the best interests of the medical community and also give it a global platform. IMA is the largest and a recognized association of professional doctors and one of the biggest medical NGOs in the world and is therefore a stakeholder in national health related issues and policies. Mattie Stepanek, an American poet and peace activist, who died at a young age of 13, said, “Unity is strength... when there is teamwork and collaboration, wonderful things can be achieved.” Let’s together take IMA to even greater heights... My best wishes to you for a healthy, happy and successful new year 2017…
