“Wish to make ties more visible”
Ambassador Anil Sooklal is the South African High Commissioner designate to India. A descendant of Indian indentured workers from Uttar Pradesh, he is a double PhD, including a doctorate in Hindu Studies, the first South African to receive one. He wishes to expand extensively on commercial ties between the two nations for which the India-South Africa Chamber of Commerce has been established. He firmly believes that the level of bilateral trade and investment should double swiftly. He says that a lot is happening between India and South Africa but mostly people are unaware of it. He wishes to bring in much more visibility into the relationship. He spoke to Bula Devi, Consulting Editor (International Affairs), on a range of subjects before his arrival in India.
