It fell upon me to be part of another group that will travel to Russia. I wonder if it will be OK by you to continue the contact with Colonel Guy Levi who is the focal point and coordinator of the visit to China. If so I'll give him your details. If, on the other hand and for some reason, you prefer to maintain our channel, please do not hesitate to indicate it and we'll act accordingly.Enjoy the weekendRafiבתאריך יום ה׳, 28 במרץ 2019 ב-14:24 מאת Chairman's Desk - Israeli Chamber of Commerce in Hong Kong <rafaelco@netvigator.com>:Dear RaphaelI hope all is well on your side.I received the information I asked for.
