Helga Ellul was yesterday appointed the first president of the Malta Chamber of Commerce, Enterprise and Industry, following her nomination by the Malta Federation of Industry.

Ms Ellul, who was the FOI's vice president, will preside over a traditional council which shall come into effect on January 3.

Members of the Chamber of Commerce and Enterprise and the Federation of Industry formally announced a merger in September, describing the move as "history in the making for private enterprise".

The merged organisation will carry more weight with government and stakeholders since it would eliminate fragmentation. It would also provide an opportunity to become more effective both locally and on the European stage.
