Serving director

My father was a serving director of the Cocoa exporting board until his death. He was assassinated last January by the rebels following the political uprising.

"serving director" means what? Will you please advise?

Hi LLChang, I googled the phrase, because I wasn't familiar with it, and all the references I found had "long-serving director of" so the "serving director" wasn't the phrase that was really being used.

I would interpret the phrase to mean that he was still actively working as a director. eg he wasn't a former director or a retired director.

Hi,

Definitely a swindler. Just delete it, don't even reply.

Oh my ***, yes! It's a total scam! Never reply to those, even to say "I know this is a scam!" Just delete and move on!
