Join Port Elizabeth and MyPE in congratulating Mover and Shaker, Basil Raman from Ford:

Management changes at Ford have seen Basil Raman taking over the role of Operations Manager. With 25 years in the motor industry already behind his name, Raman joined Ford in 2005 as a Production Manager across the various machining and assembly lines.

He was also responsible for the roll-out of the Global Ford Production System that sets standards to optimize the overall efficiency and quality of Ford’s manufacturing operations around the world.

Raman has been a community project champion since 2006, and has chaired the plant’s transformation committee for the past 6 years.

Submitted by: Colin Mileman on behalf of Ford.

Alan Straton

Chief Cook, Bottle Washer and Broom Mechanic at MyPE
Passionate about Port Elizabeth and definitely NOT packing for Perth. Alan's ethos is epitomised in the words of Nelson Mandela; "I have fought against white domination and I have fought against black domination. I have cherished the idea of a democratic and free society. If need be, it is an ideal for which I am prepared to die." See more articles by Alan.
