Dear friends, in this holiday season, I want to wish all of you and your loved ones a Happy New Year!

Each of us will naturally have our own way of remembering the year 2012 that has just passed, but I hope they will be mostly pleasant memories. After all, no matter how different we may be, we all share common values​​ and we feel this particularly acutely at New Year – a favourite holiday for children and adults alike. Let us cherish one other, and let our most treasured wishes be fulfilled this New Year's Eve. I wish you the brightest future and all the very best!
