Staff comments

Although "Allocution de Mme LI Beifen..." lists the publishing date of the article as July 17, 2005, the text of the letter is the dated June 17, 2005 and "La Chine octroi un important lot de materiels informatiques," states that the donation was related to the Presidential visit, which ended on June 5, 2005; therefore the Start and End actual dates are coded marked as June.
