Johannesburg - Dear readers
This is it. This is the last edition of the Saturday Star with my name on it. It has been a breathtaking 23 years at Independent Media.
I grew up here, quite literally. And like any journey it has been hard, sad and frantic. But it has also been stunning, exciting and just unbelievable fun.
The most important part of this job has always been you, the readers: have we kept you informed, have we educated you on the subjects that matter to you and have we produced unique content that you haven't read elsewhere?
I have stood on the shoulders of the giants who came before me. I hope I have made them proud.
I am so thankful for having had this very unique opportunity and am grateful to my colleagues, my mentors and my bosses for their unwavering support of me and my work over the years.
Dear readers, thank you for the positive (and negative) engagement, the constructive criticism, and the support you have given me and the Saturday Star.
It has meant more than you know.
And with that, I'd like to say: that's a wrap, everyone!
Kashiefa Ajam
Editor, Saturday Star.
