Hi ild, <<with SARS somewhat subsided in Beijing has the panic ended as well? Have the consumers returned to stores?>>

I am told by folks that the peak Forbidden Palace visitor count was set last year at this time, 120,000 in one day, at say USD 8/person. A friend just visited this week, at it is also a record ... 27 visitors. The place employs about 1000 staff.

Chugs, Jay
