December 2008  

Dear Friends and Business Partners!
The month of December is special for all of us; it is the time to take stock of the year that is drawing to an end and make plans for the one that is ahead of us. The poignant mood that we all feel is boosted by the festive atmosphere in the streets and squares of our city, the crowds of shoppers looking for those special gifts and the same sweet expectations are in all of us: is next year going to be better, happier, are our lives going to be different, with less worries and more joys?
