Asian Ladies Lunch...Dec 2009


Salaam,
On Monday, 21st December 2009, hosted this month's Asian Ladies Lunch at the residence. It was also occasioned to bid farewell to one of our colleagues, Madam Sarapee, wife of the Thai Ambassador to Tehran. Also invited were two special guests and friends, Mdm Shamsa and Mdm Adriana from Kenya and Romania respectively.
A special program of the day was a local handicraft display and demonstration by three Iranian friends and members of the Diplomatic Ladies Association (DLA), Women Affairs Office of the Institute of Political and International Studies (IPIS), MFA of Iran.
After a couple of months' absence and inactivity, it was indeed a pleasant reunion and get-together again among friends and our Bangladeshi newcomer. Nonetheless, it was also sad to say goodbye to our Thai friend who will be leaving Tehran soon. We wish you Mdm Sarapee, our best wishes always in your new place of domicile and hope to keep in touch wherever you are.
A special thanks and appreciation also to Khanoum Ghaderi, Khanoum Mir Fakhar and Khanoum Rafiezadeh for your kind and graceful presence and for helping to make our program a great success. Kheyli motashakkeram...
Wassalam.
