A Message from the Managing Partner

Mr Helmi Talib, Managing Partner of the Helmi Talib Group

The first quarter of the year 2020 has certainly witnessed unprecedented challenges with the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic, creating a rippling effect in the economy which is likely to have a lasting impact. Given the situation, it is of paramount importance to stand together during these difficult times both as an organization and in our individual capacity to do what we can to take care of the health and safety of each one of us.

Keeping in line with the recent “circuit-breaker” measures introduced by the Singapore Government, we have been keeping a close eye on the developments and have translated their guidelines into practice. These include health and safety measures that facilitate work from home arrangements for our staff and social distancing in line with government recommendations that are being put in place to counter the spread of the new virus.

With an elaborate Business Continuity Plan in place, we are confident in our ability to continue to deliver quality services in line with our company’s values. Digital solutions implemented over the years have been extensively useful to facilitate business continuity through various measures such as Zoom Conferencing and other online channels to connect with and ensure efficient, on time delivery of services promised to our clients. It is crucial to exercise vigilance and caution to ensure that the situation does not worsen, while continuing to maintain our level of productivity at its best.

Here at the Helmi Talib Group we hold optimism as one of our core values and face the challenges of today with the confidence that tomorrow will be better. With the dedication and commitment of our team, we will continue to deliver the very best to our clients adhering to the safety precautions put forth by the government.

With updates coming out every day, we have yet to see the full impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on the global scale. Nevertheless, let us be hopeful that it is not all gloom and doom; humanity and businesses have survived many challenges in the past and will continue to do so!

The Helmi Talib Group celebrated Chinese New Year with festive merriment-at the Tiffany Café, Furama City Centre Hotel- relishing in an array of fresh seafood, mouth-watering cuisines, topped with some delightfully rich desserts.

The event kicked off with fun filled activities and light-hearted games that were made doubly special by the presence of the partners of Ahuja Valecha (Pune, India) and fellow IAPA members- Mr. Lalith Valecha, Mr. Deepak Ahuja, and Mr. Vishal Solanki.

In addition, our January babies got to celebrate their birthdays with pomp and splendour along with the whole team.

This year, The Helmi Talib Group decided to show its commitment to the society on occasion of the festive season by spending some quality hours with the senior citizens of our community.

Teaming up with Fei Yue Community Services, the staff members at the Helmi Talib Group took time off to celebrate the festive occasion with over 40 senior citizens at Dew Court. It was a day well spent with music performances by the elderly, along with exciting games and prizes that were won! The attendees engaged in the traditional Lo Hei ceremony and stayed on for lunch sponsored by the Helmi Talib Group.
