Joginder Singh is Safari Classic patron for 2007. PRESSRELEASE
It was announced today that Joginder Singh, East African Safari Rally veteran and three times winner of the original rally, has been appointed Patron of the Kenya Airways Safari Classic for 2007. He will be attending the rally in November and will be the figurehead for many of the PR and social activities surrounding it. Event Director Surinder Thatthi said “Having such an experienced and knowledgeable person as part of our event is a great honour. Joginder is held in great regard not only by the general public here in East Africa who remember his amazing record on the old Safari Rallies, but is also in the wider world of the international rallying community. Our only fear is that during the rally he will forget his role as Patron and start repairing cars …”
Joginder Singh joins a select group of previous East African Safari Classic Patrons. At the inaugural event of 2003, Eric Cecil, one of the instigators and founders of the original Coronation Safari back in 1953 and a winner himself on the 1956 event, came all the way from his current home in Australia to take the role of Patron. For the 2005 Safari Classic, the Patron was Bharat Bhardwaj who competed on the Safari during the 1960s - he finished third overall with Joginder in 1966 and second in 1969, both times in Volvos - and then for many years was the Rally Chairman.
