His job is to explain the plans to the local government.

That's understandable. Construction will probably
start in March.
And when do you think we could start production?
At the earliest, ffteen months from now.
NARRATIVE
Hiroshi is writing a postcard to Jane from Bali.
Dear Jane,
I wish you were here! The weather is great. I'm sitting
on my porch watching the sunset. The question about f-
nancing the project has fnally been settled.
Soon the contract will be signed...
