Dear David,

Ali the best to you for the New Year! How are things going in the land of tho Rising Sun ? I
must say,I really envy you getting that Tokvo gig with the company. Somehow they
overlooked me on that one arid 1 am forced to slug it out here.

I heard through the breeze that business is going well there. Rumor has it that you guys are
just about to close a big deal w ith the government for an M-750 Simulator, Great news!
Good for tho company and good tor you. Keep up the great work!

Did you hear about Margie Bronson suddenly leaving tho company just before year-end? It
was a bit of a shock to say the least. She gave one week’s notice and was gone. Nobody
knows for sure what’s up with her, but rumors have been flying fast and furious that she
went through a bit of a personal meltdown and has now gone underground to lick her
wounds for a while. There could bo some truth to that since her long time relationship
ended recently and three months ago she was passed over for that director position that
was up for grabs. I’ll keep you posted when we find out more.

As for me. I am quite busy these days on the Branscombe Systems Project. We are entering
Phase Two now. And that is expected to run for three years, at least. Frank Schindler is
Senior Project Manager and I am Team Leader ot the Embedded Systems Group. I am
enjoying it so far. Whether I’ll feel the same way in three years. I’m not sure. By then I
might be ready to join you in Japan.

I’m still kicking butt in the squash court and am managing to got in two or three matches per
week. What about squash in Japan? Have you been able to play any over there? Are
there even any squash courts? I suppose since you are in Tokyo, there must be some.
Let me know.

L have to go now and attend to family duties. Jonathon needs some help with his homework
and Angie wants me to fix something in the kitchen. You single guys traveling the world
sure are lucky!

Keep me posted whenever you can. I really enjoy receiving your letters and getting the details
of your life in Japan.

Your buddy.

Dear Pak Bima,

As always, my pleasure to receive your mail, Pak Bima! Please don’t hesitate.

Right now I’m in a hurry (going out to have dinner at a friend’s house), but just before I go,
I’d like to forward you a weblink: it turns out there are 5 shops in the city of Enschede,
where the campus of University of Twente is located. Those are specialized in selling
Indonesian/Asian food stuff. No, not a market, but a shop where we can buy Indonesian
spices and ingredients (like soy sauce, hot chilli, coconut milk, cooking oil, etc.). Most of
these shops, that we call toko, or Indische toko, usually also sell few ready made foods.

Let me tell you. Perhaps one of the toko mentioned on this webpage is near where your
daughter is staying. Otherwise, she needs to check them out. She has a bicycle, doesn’t
she? Even I visit an Indonesian toko every now-and-then (it’s not near my house, I need
to ride my bicycle to get there) and I often buy tea (teh Jawa) there, soy sauce or other
spices (daun salam, daun jeruk purut).

So check this out, and maybe forward this information to your daughter.

Good luck!

Bye for now,

Caroline
