If these kinds of international business persons from the region can no longer function, ... is China making progress in the region, or has it been moving backwards in terms of winning the sentiments of the local population?

It's distribution of wealth. And there the Chinese government has not convinced the local population that they're getting their fair share.

We are very enthusiastic with the progress as we prepare to launch into the distribution stage of our business.

The company is making slow but steady progress in refocusing its products on e-business, an area where the company clearly has technology to apply but has yet to establish a strong market presence or a substantial revenue contribution.

Substantial progress has been made on refining our business model, but there is still more work to be done,

In general, it was a pretty good session for business owners. I would say we made some progress this year.
