“Beyond that,” said Mr. Charumilinda, “Marcel’s contributions to CASBAA in terms of strategy, governance and finance have steered our organization through many structural changes as well as the dramatic evolution of our industry.

“As a Board Member he has helped enormously to create the credible industry voice that we are today. He is also greatly respected by his peers, by government officials and by a client base drawn from around the world.”

Mr. Fenez said, “I am greatly honoured to receive this award. But I would like to share this honour with a long list of current and former CASBAA Directors and Executives as an endorsement of the many achievements that CASBAA has been involved over the years”
