Follow UsIt's election time at Erode and Salem and the twin-towns recently elected
office bearers for the term 2007-09. Erode and Salem, which also happen to be
district headquarters for the respective region, shares many things in common.
Both follow a biennial election format and elect people unanimously. And more
importantly, they work in close tandem.
“Warranty issues, service support, DoA and price protection, are the common
issues faced by us in the region. The new team will strive to wipe out all the
ills from the market. Unity is our strength,” said C Balakrishnan, President,
EDITA.
EDITA wants support from vendors to conduct technical seminars and education
programs. “We want people to be qualified and well-informed about the latest
products and technologies. Resellers should have healthy competition among
themselves but not fight only over prices,” he mentioned. The association is
likely to conduct an expo soon to promote business in the region.

Salem IT Association (SITA) was formed in 2003 and elections are conducted
once every two years. The new team for 2007-09 was elected last month and B
Rajamanickam, once again was made president unanimously.
“Our main objective for this term would be increasing members. We want to
double our member base from present 42 to 85. And we are expanding our reach for
the same. SITA would now cover places like Hosur, Dharmapuri, Namakkal, Aathur,
Krishnagiri and Mettur,” said Rajamanickam.
Like EDITA, SITA also wants to fight for common issues such as warranty,
service support, DoA and price protection from vendors.
