Abdul Milazi takes over Sunday World
Times Media has appointed Abdul Milazi as editor of Sunday World from 1 December 2013. He takes over from Marvin Meintjies who has been appointed to head up the Times Media London bureau.
Milazi previously edited Sunday World before joining Business Day as trade and industry editor. He has also been deputy editor of GQ Magazine SA, senior editor of Financial Mail, associate editor of Sunday Times, deputy editor of Times Live and deputy editor of The Witness.
"Abdul understands that a title like Sunday World needs to be edgy as this will drive the circulation of this very important Sunday newspaper. He is a life coach and motivation specialist which means he understands the heartbeat of people and the 'happening crowd'," said Mike Tissong, Times Media GM of Sowetan and Sunday World.
Milazi said he is looking forward to editing a newspaper he really loves and which he still regards as special.
