IT must be said that a mammoth effort has gone into changing the style of the Echo.

What a pleasant surprise indeed. It is as if the newspaper has come alive. Some things have gone but good things have remained and many news things are there for us to peruse.

It is more colourful, interesting but above all it serves a great purpose in our community. Congratulations to the editorial staff at the Echo and thank you for presenting us daily with such an excellent newspaper.
