Dear Ms. Chen,

It has been a great pleasure to meet you, recently, on the occasion of the visit of Mrs. Natasa Karamanlis, the spouse of the Prime Minister of the Hellenic Republic, to Shanghai.

I would like, first of all, to express my sincere thanks to you for your special and wonderful arrangement for Mrs. Natasa Karamanlis’s visit to your Children’s Palace, in the mid of the winter vacation and with such a short notice. I truly appreciate very much, all your efforts and support to this visit, which has been proved very successful.

Mrs. Natasa Karamanlis, along with all the other visitors of the delegation, was impressed and amazed by the brilliant performance and show, done by the lovely children from your palace. All the children are extremely talented and their performances had, indeed, brought joy and happiness to all the delegates, who admired their skills.

Once again, I would like to thank you and your kind staff for everything you have done for this visit and shall be looking forward to cooperating with you again.

Wishing you a very Happy Spring Festival!

Sophia Hiniadou-Cambanis
