Dear fellow kung fu brothers and sisters,
On bahalf and requested by the government's office, the City of Foshan, Canton, China, I send out this announcement of the event "Fascination Foshan" Foshan Wushu Festival.
The location of the festival activities will be held at different locations within the region of Foshan and Shunde, Canton. on the dates between 13-21 November, 2004.
Please refer to the translation attachment.
To my understanding, this is the first time major Wushu event in China, and a preface to the outside world in coordination with the coming Olympic 2008 Beijing. Most of the Nation's top contemporary Wushu Masters from different provinces and styles will also attend this event.
Parties interested in receiving an original official invitation card in mail please contact Buick Yip at whitexco@netvigator.com with full mailing address.
The government of the city of Foshan and Shunde can offer assistance to bookings on hotels and transportation within the time of the festival. For all the events, admissions are insignificant.
The organizing committee also wished to apologize for this short notice, most of the key organizing officials are preoccupied with the 2004 Olympic Games in Athens earlier this season.
You are cordially requested to relay this mail and attachment to your kung fu acquaintances.
Yours truly,
Buick Yip
