A Merry=20 Christmas and a Happy New Year from UAP

Thank you for your support in 2008. With = the support=20 from you and many other companies like you, we have been able to = improve=20 the products we offer and the service we provide during=20 2008.

We recognise that 2009 will be a = tough trading=20 year, but we will continue to invest in our product range and = invest in=20 the services we offer to make your dealings with ourselves even = easier and=20 more productive.

We have also decided that despite the = recession, UAP=20 will continue to honour the projects that we have committed to.=20 Accordingly, during 2008 we have completed another school in Nepal = which=20 will educate 400 children in 2009 and the footings have been dug = for our=20 4th school which opens in April 2009. So no matter how hard the = going=20 gets, both you and I can take solace from the fact that every = single day=20 over 1,000 children are now being educated in schools funded by = your=20 support of our company and our products. That is 1,000 children = who didn't=20 have access to an education, or who had to walk 8 hours a day just = to=20 learn to read and write. The glow of pride that we get from the = schools=20 can't be written into our balance sheet, or into a profit and loss = account, but that glow is priceless, and it is down to all our=20 stakeholders that we have been able to do this.

UAP have also continued to support the = tree planting=20 campaign in Thailand and by April 2010 we would have planted = 56,000 trees.=20 Again, thank you to all our customers and stakeholders.

So enjoy your Christmas and New Year = break and once=20 again, thanks for your support.
