“Shamin is an excellent journalist generally assigned to the more complex stories - particularly those dealing with business, development and economic issues - that require an ability to place issues within a wider context. He is able to turn around copy quickly and efficiently. He has an excellent interviewing technique, thanks to an easy manner with people and a knack for asking probing questions without seeming antagonistic.”

“Across all of his writing, Shamin has shown the courage to tackle major human rights issues while getting to the heart of the human story. In his current capacity, he continues to capture South Africa’s complex social landscape with fresh insight and verve.”

“Shamin’s work ethic and attitude was exemplary and of the highest quality. He was a pleasure to work with. He always went the extra mile, as this client had the highest expectations of our team. We were required to work outside of work hours. The client always spoke highly of Shamin and often times reached out directly to Shamin. I would not hesitate to work with him again, should the opportunity present itself.”
