A: Mr. Johnson. Can I have a word with you?B: Oh, Bill. Sure. Come in, please. What is it?A: The workers said that the company had stopped subsidizing the drinks and meals in the company restaurant and had thus resulted in a 50% price increase. The workers are not very happy about it. We want the company to resume the subsidies immediately.B: Look, Bill. You’ve got to understand that the company is having a hard time right now. We have to reduce the costs, or the staff’s salaries will be affected.A: But, according to the contract we signed when we started working here, the subsidized restaurant is part of the terms and conditions of work. I don’t think the workers can accept that. B: I know that, Bill. But things are changing. It is just for the benefits of the company. We have made careful investigations before we make the decision. As far as I know, our staff restaurant is still offering good value for money. In spite of the cuts in subsidies, prices in our restaurant are still similar to those in other companies in the area.A: But I think that the management should have fully consulted the workers before getting the price increase into effect.B: Perhaps this is what we have neglected. Look, Bill. I’ll report what we have just discussed to the Board of Directors and get back to you as soon as possible. Is that all right?A: All right. Thank you, Mr. Johnson. See you.B: See you.

Starting up
Private & public sector companies
In economics, the private sector is that part of the economy which is both run for private profit and is not controlled by the state. By contrast, enterprises that are part of the state are part of the public sector. The private sector employs the majority of the workforce in some countries. However, in some other countries, the public sector employs most of the workers. Some industries should always be publiclyowned because of their national importance, safety issues, uncertain return on investment for investors, etc.

I am writing to invite you to attend this year’s conference, which will be held in Prague, Czech Republic, 21 – 24 November, 2008. The chief executive and the senior managers from the head office and the overseas sales managers will attend the conference. The purpose of the conference is, first of all, to enable the managers to know each other better. In addition, we would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your hard work. Most important of all, however, we will at the conference discuss how we can improve our products and services in the future.
The venue we have chosen for this year’s conference is Hotel Moda. It is a 4-star hotel located about half an hour by underground to the city center. The hotel facilities are excellent with spacious bedrooms, a large swimming pool, sauna and Jacuzzi. Moreover, during the conference, we will arrange various activities for the participants, such as guided city tours, cultural tours, sightseeing and opera. I hope you will all be able to enjoy yourselves during the conference.
The conference will commence on Saturday morning, 22 November. All the participants are required to arrive by Friday evening, 21 November, and leave by noon of Monday, 24 November. I sincerely wish that you can all attend this year’s conference and I look forward to meeting you in Prague.
