Dear Ricardo

Thank you for coming back to me.

Re the letter, I will prepare a draft letter and send it to you.

I'm visiting South Africa next week. There is a trade fair, IFAT Africa in
Johannesburg (I just checked and Maputo is not too far..).

Possibly 5th or 6th July morning may be a good time.

W/C 10 July is also fine, too.

Best regards

Mito
