This year, however, the company is going to support an event. Wediscussed various options, such as an office party, a meal out and a day trip.Firstly, we considered an office party held on the premises. The main advantage of this would bethat it avoids any need for people to make special travel arrangements. On the other hand, the buildingdoesn’t really have a space that is suitable.We therefore looked at a meal out. There are a number of suitable restaurants and hotels close to theoffice. One arrangement against this was that sitting at tables is not a very good way for us to mix andget to know people from other departments.Finally, we discussed a day trip, for example to a local tourist spot. The main drawback of this isthe cost. In addition, it’s difficult to find somewhere that caters for all of our needs and interests.Taking all of the points into consideration, we propose an office party for all staff, to be held in the mainreception area. Data and time to be confirmed.Please let us know your opinion, preferable before the end of next week.Thank you.SaSC

But another official toldreporters that much more rain is needed to help put out the fires. Luhut Panjaitan is Indonesia’s Coordinating Ministerof Politics, Law and Security. “This week we have rain. If we have intensive rain for four straight days and our waterbombings continue, I hope we would be back to normal next week.

The official added that he has asked government agencies to consider the possibility ofcreating artificial rain.Indonesia has come under heavy pressure from neighboring countries and environmental groups to put out thefires. Every year, some companies set forest fires on purpose. They do this to clear land and make way for palm oilplantations. Thousands of people have developed breathing problems because of the smoke. Some non-governmentalorganizations plan to take legal action against the government. They say Indonesian officials have ignored thewell-being of communities affected by the smoke. The government has deployed more than 22,000 police officers andarmed forces members to fight the forest fires. There are more than 1,600 fires burning in at least six provinces.
