Re: New Year's Party 
Date : December 23, 2008
It is the time again for the staff to have some activities to celebrate the New Year's Day. I know you and some young guys have planned to hold an informal party. But I think we need do something different this year. As I will be in Beijing for a week, it is up to you and the young guys to decide on the time and place of the party. Please let me know your final decision and whether I need do any preparation in advance.
Yours,                                                                                                                             Li Ming
