Dear CHarlyne
The topics for discussion are:
1. Condo Sales Project
a. Providing some preliminary information and pictures to you
for the condo project.
b. What is your preliminary plan for how you will sell the
condo units (working through real estate agencies in Taiwan, your own
marketing, etc.)?
=09
2. Penghu Land Sales
a. Can you obtain a good map of the Penghu Islands?
b. We need to show the location on a map for where Amazing
Taiwan Company purchased their land. Following a discussion of how we
will profit from a Penghu land sale transaction, I want to schedule a
meeting with you and Governor Lai with Adi Simayof during his time in
Las Vegas. Before that meeting we need to have a map of the Islands
and
discuss some available land purchase options. In addition, we need to
understand how long the land purchase process will take as well as what
type of legal company is required to purchase the land. =20
3. World Expo=20
a. I want to discuss with you in more detail my idea of how the
World Expo Project can work in Las Vegas. I think that investors will
be
more likely to invest in the project if we have a preliminary building
plan of the project in Las Vegas and some preliminary interest from
Chinese businesses, as far as their businesses leasing in the project.
Then, investors will see that the project has a reality. In the
initial
planning with the Las Vegas developer, I suggest that we discuss with
the developer that a financial partnership be structured with the
developer and the investors. I think that we need a strong developer
in
Las Vegas, who has a respected reputation and political influence, so
as
to make this project work on the local level.
b. I suggest that we do not use a specific site at this point
of the project, because while the basic building structure and
appearance will remain the same, we may find better locations as time
goes on. Therefore, the businesses and investors can be convinced of
the value of the project without having to be committed to a specific
location. The important aspect of the location is that the project is
located in Las Vegas and has adequate proximity to the World Furniture
Mart and the Convention Center.
4. Attorney =20
a. We need a good attorney in Las Vegas or California who is
familiar with international law and possibly speaks Chinese. We can
use
this attorney for both the condos and the World Furniture Mart. Of
course, additional attorneys will be used in Taiwan by the condo buyers
and tenants and investors for the World Expo.
5. Feng Shui
a. We need to discuss the appropriate Feng Shui Master for both
the condo project and the World Expo. This Master needs to have the
ability to be able to help us in Las Vegas.
I look forward to discussing these matters with you on Monday.*3
