Dear Mrs. Hainsley:

Thank you for your letter No. A/AI/S29 of August 19, 1998 conce-
rning the international express mail link between Jamaica and
Taiwan and your particulars of the EMS service.

Regarding the maximum limits of size for EMS items, we would su-
ggest the size limits, 1.5 meters for any one dimension, and 3
meters (instead of 2 meters) for the length plus girth of an EMS
item be adopted. The larger size limits will meet the need of
mailing merchandise or items, according to our current situation
.

In the event that the above point meets with your concurrence,
please confirm by a fax reply. Our fax number is (+886 2) 2391 8
302. As to the date for the commencement of the service to be on
Oct. 5, 1998 is acceptable.

In return, one copy of our EMS operational information will be
sent to you by airmail for your reference.

We look forward to hearing from you soon.

With best regard,

Sincerely yours,

Dear Sir

Re International Express Mail Link between Jamaica and Taiwan

Reference is made to your facsimile dated 1998 September 15 reg-
arding the above subject.

The requirement of 3 meters for the size of merchandise is acce-
ptable. Your request for the larger size suggests that there is
a reasonable demand for Express Mail Service from Taiwan to Jam-
aica. We therefore look forward to a successful service.

Yours sincerely
