i think it's a safety factor for the officers, but it also makes for a more efficient system for us to say hey, there's a radio car half a block where this is occurring. so i hope all of you will look into that. and again, i want to thank the chief and the command staff and all of you for working so hard. obviously, all of you get paid a great deal of money to do this, so i want to continue to thank you for that. happy new year, and thank you for all the great work all of you are providing for our citizenry. thank you. >> president turman: thank you. further public comment? >> good evening, commissioners. first, to the chief, commissioners, and director henderson, i want to tell you how fantastic it's been working with you for the last four years. i'm no longer the president of

rfj, but i want to say how much we appreciate your commitment to police reform, your commitment to social justice. it has been reflective these last years, and i want to say the last quarter of 2017 has been the most exciting times for officers of color and also i think for our communities because we really truly feel that you have embraced wholeheartedly the whole idea of police reform and what the doj has been speaking about. and now it is my pleasure to turnover the leadership of the officers for justice to monday g -- montgomery singleton and trent williams. i will be as supportive of everyone as i possibly can, and i am sure you will continue to

move in the right directions and be successful. and thank you chief for your commitment to the members of the san francisco police department. >> thank you, lieutenant will coms for your service to the officers for justice and for the wonderful job that you've done as your long tenure as their president. further public comment? >> i was listening to public radio, and there was a show about tear gas and within it, they discussed tazers, and i don't know if you're all aware of this. i never heard it told at any meeting that i came to, and i would just went to almost all of them, that the information from body worn cameras and the tazers, the data goes directly to axon, tazers international. so why is a public service group, the police, sending data to a private corporation on the

people of this city? if we -- we already have the body worn, and i'm still wait fighting against the tazers. i want to know about that. i want to know why this wasn't discussed. if you all have an issue about it, i hope you do. you know, probably the next thing is they'll want to collate the data and sell it back to us. this is appalling. the brown act, my reading says you can discuss the actions of any employee of the city by name, so at these meetings, when we say we can't discuss them, that's not right according to the brown act. as i now under the brown act, have filed a complaint that is going to be heard by the sunshine task force. i differentiate what president

turman says about tazers, and the action that you took at that meeting. for example, during the presentation, commander walsh twice apologized for going over time. no one stopped him. no one was concerned about it. he was, and i think that was respectful of him to say that. but that the woman that was speaking for us, kristina maria was cutoff immediately and the sound killed at exactly two minutes with no opportunity or respect for her to say, could you wind it up, could you -- other people want to speak. you know you're a respected member of the community. no, she was just cutoff. and so again, there was not -- no one informed us of where that meeting was moved to, and people were locked out of city hall, and that is not legal, so we're going to fight this tazer thing, and we're going to keep being the best city in this country to not have violence and people being killed or tazered with electric shock that we at first also was never

discussing was fatal. and now of course we have to own that that's the truth and over 1,000 people have died from tazers. and by the way, you know, the mental health issues within the police department and with officers in the correctional institutes is three times as high. the suicide rate, three times as high as the general public. are we caring about them? where's the concern about their mental health because they're not doing well living with these things. thank you. >> president turman: any further public comment. seeing none, public comment is now closed. secretary kilshaw. >> clerk: item 6, public comment on matters pertaining to item 8 below, closed session, including discussion on whether to hold item 8 in closed session. >> president turman: members of the public, we are about to go into closed session to discuss both matters with legal

counsel on existing litigation as well as other disciplinary matters. so any public comment on the fact that we're about to go into closed session and we're going to vote on that? sorry. mr. alden stood up on that, and i thought we had public comment on that. all right. seeing none, public comment is closed. >> clerk: item 7, vote on whether to hold item 8 in closed session, and whether to vote on items 8 a and b, and san francisco commissioners 51.7 section. >> president turman: okay. commissioners, i'll entertain the appropriate motion. >> i think we should go into closed session.

>> second. >> president turman: all in favor? all opposed? before we say good night to the public, is there anything you want to tell them about the next two weeks? >> we aren't meeting -- oh. >> we're dark the next two weeks. sorry. thank you, commissioner. we are dark january 24th, january 31st, and we will be >> clerk: commissioner, we're back in session and you still have a quorum.

>> president turman: okay. item 9. >> motion. >> second. >> president turman: okay. all in favor? any opposed? thank you. that item passes. next item. >> clerk: item 10, adjournment, action item. >> motion. >> second. >> president turman: okay. all in favor? thank you, commissioners. we are now adjourned.

>> hi everyone. welcome. we're going to start our program today. i'm captain paul yep. i want to welcome everyone here today. elected officials, department heads and thank you media, i know you're getting wet. thank you for being here. first of all, happy up coming lunar new year of the dog. some characters are loyalty and honesty and principles in helping and serving others, thus they make good police officers, scientists, politicians and

judges. the office at central station must be convinced i was born in the year of the dog because of the barking i do at the station but i was born in the year of the monkey. i had the fortune of taking over the station. i worked at central station for retired deputy chief tom, the captain for the years of the dragon, the snake and the horse. during the dynasties, they worked vigorously to end extortion, reduce overall crimes and increase public safety in chinatown. we work hard to continue to build on their successes and legacy. they built great relationships and friendships in the chinatown community and our city family.

chinatown has been known as an underserved community. i want to personally thank officials, the mayor, commissioner peskin for their continued support and dedication to public safety and resources to chinatown. thanks to you, we have more officers dedicated to you can wassing -- we have more officers working in chinatown. we have improved traffic safety and safety on muni we will continue to work on. thank you. (applause)

>> thank you very much. thank you. >> you have to protect the hair. >> you're absolutely right. hello everyone. i'm the new executive director and happy to be back in san francisco. we're looking forward to making it another celebration of a crime-free lunar new year. when the event was started 21 years ago it was a time when san francisco was often fearful because of the extortion and pick pocketing that was common. until recently extortion cases were in the hundreds and now down to very few. we're thrilled to say the reports of lunar new year related crimes directly related to our work and building connections with neighborhoods and businesses and folks like you in the community.

i hope you join us as we walk the neighborhood to visit our neighbors and share more tips while we celebrate the lunar new year. we'll hold another event like this tomorrow at mr. bread. we hope to see you there. to help launch one of the san francisco great celebration seasons, a native and someone i have known for a long time, i want to introduce acting mayor london breed. (applause) >> thank you. >> no job too big or too small. (laughter) >> thank you commander lazar for protecting my hair today. (laughter) he doesn't just protect people, he protects hair.

good afternoon everyone. i want to start by thanking sf safe executive director for being here and congratulations on your new role. this is another incredible event. we host it every year. i want to thank and acknowledge, i know many of my colleagues are here and will be speaking, thank you to chief scott for being here and carmen chew. this is a good moment to remind people to be aware. the lunar new year brings so many people to san francisco, but specifically to our great chinatown. and the festivities, although we have a good time and love the excitement of it all, it sadly provides an opportunity for

criminals. we need our residents to be vigilant and alert. and please remember, if you see something, say something. shortly after mayor lee's passing i met with a number of chi chinatown leaders and heard some of their concerns and sadly some of the examples going on, including the asian blessing scams that have targeted seniors. to help address the issues i'm announcing today we're adding two foot patrol officers to join the chinatown central station from 11:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. so a total of seven officers walking the beats and in the area during that time. the two new officers will be joining the one sergeant and four officers of the housing

units that are already a part of the shifts. and i want to stop and thank all of the police officers who are here today who continue to serve and protect our neighborhoods and i want to thank captain yip and the folks at central station for the work they put in specifically. by working closely, we'll make sure the neighborhood is a safe and secure place for all of its residents. i wish you have a safe and prosperous lunar new year. (speaking chinese) thank you. (applause) i want to introduce one of our most crucial partners for building connections between san francisco and officers, welcome chief of police mr. scott. (applause)

>> thank you. thank you mayor breed. i'm going to be brief and get you guys out of the rain hopefully. thank you to everybody who came here today and braved the rain to talk about safety for the lunar new year. happy new year. this will be a prosperous year for our city. this is the 21st year that sf safe has given safety awareness tips for the lunar new year and i know our campaign on public safety is really about the people and keeping everybody safe and making sure people don't get victimized. first of all, i want to remind everybody to be aware, we have had some i believe targeting of some of our asian merchants. we need people to be aware of

that issue. i'm going to talk about a few tips to help people with that. blessing scams have been an issue in the community and we don't want anybody to fall prey to that. be aware of strangers, if anybody is asking for money or jewelry or anything like that, you might want to take caution and be aware. don't follow strangers home and don't bring any to your home. don't bring strangers to withdraw money or take out valuables in their presence. before withdrawing large sums of money or valuables, have a discussion with people you trust in your family first. often times people act on emotion and that's what the scam artists and people who prey on this type of person, that's what they do. they play on emotions. so often times when you talk to other people, you have a chance to collect your thoughts and think twice before you act. please talk with someone you trust in your family or a good

friend before withdrawing large sums of money. our commitment to providing education for the merchants is ongoing. we'll have merchant walks, i'm going to rollout the calendar, i think over 2,000 of these -- got it upside down -- but i think they'll be given to the merchants and it has safety tips as well, those will be readily available to remind people what to do to stay safe. also, pedestrian safety is really of the upmost importance. san francisco through the leadership and vision of mayor ed lee has engaged in vision zero and what that means, we want to cut traffic fatalities down to zero by 2024. we believe what was once a distant vision and dream, we're well on our way to make it happen.

we need your help. pedestrian safety is very important, particularly in chinatown. it's a condensed area. please don't drive distracted and if you're walking don't walk distracted. those simple things can help reduce accidents and fatalities and be kind to neighbors and friends in terms of allowing the pedestrians to walk about the street freely without having to worry about distracted driving. one of our commitments is language access. we know we have a lot of non english speaking residents and people who visit and live in the city. and sfpd is committeed to giving language access to those who don't speak english. so our officers are trained, we have translators and access is a huge thing in the community. we need people to report what they see. we need people to feel

comfortable talking to us, the police officer and the district attorney's office and other people in the criminal justice sxm access is really, really important for us. our training is ongoing and we're working with a lot of stakeholders from the community to make sure the language access is not a problem for anybody. i can go on further but i'm going to stop there. i know we have a lot of people who want to speak today. i want to say thank you for your support and it's a pleasure to work with you and let's have a safe chinese lunar new year. thank you. (applause) >> throughout his time district attorney has been a fantastic partner, including prosecuting the people who committed blessing scams. district attorney. >> thank you. and happy year of the dog to

everyone. it's wonderful to be here today, even with the rain. we were talking that we've had years here where we have to wear sunblock and today we wear as umbrellas. we continue to move forward for public safety in this community and other communities. years ago we would be talking about blessing scams and the first jurisdiction in the country to prosecute the cases successfully and they're not what they used to be. but nevertheless, we need to continue to be vigilant. we're still having people who are victimized and we depend on the media, specifically the chinese media because it's a crime that impacts the chinese community mostly, our phone number is 415-551-9595. it's a 24/7 phone.

we take cases and we work with our partners at sf safe who are great incredible partners and the police department. but at the end of the day, this is a collaboration and community plays an important role. happy lunar new year and thank you for all you do. i look forward to the parade and the merchant walk today and i just want to take a moment and i know it's in all of our hearts, maybe if we can take one moment of silence in memory of mayor lee. this is a community that obviously he had very, very deeply ties to it and we all should recognize that. so if you would take a moment of silence please. thank you and happy lunar new year. (applause) >> now i would like to introduce

a 30 year district three resident who faithfully represents the businesses and people at city hall, everyone's supervisor peskin. >> thank you. (speaking chinese) all right! i want to -- first, i want to thank and welcome sf safe for doing this for over 20 years, what she said is right, we have seen the number of extortion cases drop year after year. i'm delighted to continue to do this to stay vigilant. thank you chief scott and captain yip and men and women of the san francisco police department. you can see how important it is, from our acting mayor that every member of the board of supervisors, we take it

seriously. let me leave you with one thought to the media to say again and again, report, report, report. if people do not report extortion, we are only as good as the eyes and ears that we have in the community. we have language access as you heard, but please, send the message that people should feel comfortable contacting the police, contacting elected officials to keep our community safe. (applause) >> she is smart and solutions oriented representative for san francisco, growing up in a family running a small business, please welcome miss carmen chew. >> i'm pleased to be here with everybody as well. i think there's a phrase our supervisor didn't say in

chinese. he said them all. he didn't say (chinese) which means have many children to everybody. happy new year. i'm glad to be here. i really think it's important for all of us to get together to remind everybody about the importance of reporting crime. we talked about blessing scams, i think our district attorney spoke about that earlier. i think people know the scammers are very smart. they figure out new ways to trick people and get access to your information and money. so whether it is pretending to be the consulate general's office or blessing scam, be aware and make sure you don't provide personal information to people. (chinese)

(applause) >> someone who has worked closely on the issue and long time advocate for chinatown merchants, eddie owl. >> hi everyone. good afternoon. on behalf of the chinese chamber of commerce, i want to thank san francisco safe organization for working to create a safe environment in which our small business can thrive. the fight against extortion is extremely important.

especially as lunar new year approaches. for over 20 years, will continue support this effort and educate and encourage merchants to report any attempted extortion preparing for the upcoming new year festivities. we must remain aware and work with our local police to ensure the safety of our community. thank you. (speaking chinese) (speaking chinese)

come february 16th and join with us new year day. thank you. >> next, another ally in building strong connections across san francisco cultures. someone i have been grateful to collaborate with in my career in san francisco. i want to welcome chinese newcomer service director george chan. >> hello everyone. i'm george chan, the executive director of newcomer service

center. thank you for letting us join this event. (speaking chinese) (applause) >> okay. our next speaker is someone i have had the pleasure of working with, we have worked together on cross-cultur cross-cultural collaborations, please welcome sarah wong. >> i want to shout out to all the community based organizations, helping out and walking along in chinatown to talk to merchants about safety during new year. i want to shout out to all the special volunteers. thank you for their work. i wish everyone well, health and happiness in the year of the dog. thank you.

(applause) >> now i want to welcome assembly member choy, representing chinatown. >> good afternoon everyone. good to see everyone on a classically sunny day in san francisco. i apologize for being late, i just got here from a floor session in the assembly. but thank you for being part of the important safety announcement. this is a press conference i have taken part in virtually every year i've been in office. it's so important to not just wish everyone a happy lunar new year but make sure we're safe. i know there have been speakers who have talked about fraud and blessing scams but it's so important to get the word out. i want to take a moment to mention another safety issue that has been threatened to our immigrant communities and that is the recent suggestion and announcement by president

trump's immigration authorities that they may be coming down into northern california in the coming weeks and months to do widespread raids of our communities. just this past hour, in sacramento, our attorney general announced we will be certainly enforcing a law that i authored this past year, that is the immigrant worker protection act to ensure that if ice agents come knocking on the doors of work places like restaurants, that employ many immigrant workers, employers are required to ask for subpoenas or judicial warrants before allowing the ice agents to do raids on their work places. i want to help educate the public about this because we are expecting raids imminently and it's important we are prepared as a community that knows how important our immigrant families and workers are in san francisco and in california. but with that, i want to wish

everybody a happy lunar new year and thank you to the organizers and safe for keeping us safe. >> hello. i think we're all going to come together on the board of supervisors. we want to wish you all a happy new year. (speaking chinese) happy new year to everyone. i'm a proud representative, i'm hillary ronen and i want to wish everyone a safe and happy lunar new year. >> (speaking chinese) i want to thank project safe for doing this and we'll be walking in the second chinatown san francisco doing the same thing with our merchants. happy lunar new year to

everyone. >> (speaking chinese) >> good afternoon everyone. i'm commissioner safai. i want to thank the district attorney and police chief from being here today, i am a true believer on deterring crime and what cameras can do and we saw that firsthand in our community. we've had a wave of home break-ins and one of the things that is very helpful in determining the crime are the home security cameras. i want to encourage people to think about deterring crime.

happy lunar new year and year of the dog. >> have much luck and fortune in the new year. i'm jane kim and i'm proud to represent the downtown area, including the market and tenderloin and treasure island. i want to as everyone else had remind everybody to be safe in one of the most important events here in san francisco, celebrating our new year. i want to recognize sf safe and sfpd for their partnership. this is my eighth year participating in this press conference and helping hundreds of people remain safe during if festivities. good luck to all of our residents. i want to thank and recognize paul yip but our captains working the parades and

festivities, darrell fong who is here today, i know will be working closely and from the tenderloin station, we'll be working in concert together to make sure residents and workers are safe as we celebrate the year of the dog. and finally in regards to making sure that we're all aware of what's going on with the blessing scams, i want to appreciate san francisco police chief for working with our officer and supervisor aaron peskin's office to convene a meeting to make sure sfpd is putting the resources it has available to investigating the scams as well. we want our constituents to report, but we want to make sure we're investigating and bringing people to justice to make sure they are not taking advantage of the most vulnerable in our community. happy new year. (applause)

>> okay. so i want to introduce malcolm young from the chinatown community development center. i got it. >> all right you got it! okay. i know, exactly. i'm going to make this quick. all right, so everybody, and the reverend isn't here but i stole it from him and we're going to do it every year. slow down for chinatown! >> slow down for chinatown! >> one more time. slow down for chinatown! all right thank you. pedestrian safety is key during chinese new year, there will be people every where and it's critical we watch out for people so no one gets hurt. one more time, slow down for chinatown! thank you everybody. >> so in closing, i'm so proud

to be here with all these passionate and community oriented leaders. our united efforts can help make san francisco a safer place for all residents. we know a key part of this is being a part of the community, when people know each other they look out for each other. when you stay aware and talk to your neighbors, you help protect your neighborhood and cities. before closing i want to say thank you to everyone in attendance and coming out in this weather. i appreciate it. thank you very much. ♪ ♪

♪ >> thank you all for being here this morning. i want to touch upon the encouraging news we heard last

night, a federal judge just issued a stop against discrimination actions of the trump administration to deport daca recipients in the country. (applause) and we all know it's not the first time the judicial system had to step in to protect our residents from the cruel and misguided policies of this administration which targets our immigration communities. while we were happy to hear this welcoming news, we know that in this city we must work together to protect our immigrant families. we must stand united in the face of intolerance and today with the opening of this new incredible family resource center we're showing that san francisco supports all residents. i want to thank sam reese here today for hosting us and acknowledge the latino parity

coalition for providing families in need. and i'm delighted to be here to acknowledge the role they play in diverse families and the newest member is the el centro bayview, which will open -- (applause) which will open its doors this friday. and it is just such a beautiful facility. i'm so excited with how welcoming it will be to the community. since 2009 the centers have operated across the city providing cultural services to families and youth. and with the opening of el centro bayview, san francisco can proudly say 26 centers are

serving residents and neighborhoods throughout san francisco. they will be specifically charged with providing services to immigrant communities who for one reason or another are unaware or hesitate to reach out for support or services. it is so important that these families step out of the shadows and receive the resources they need. we understand why they are weary to do so, they feel attacked, we hear the threats from our federal government every single day sadly. and just this monday president trump ended the temporary protective status for our el salvador residents who came because of a devastating earthquake in their country. and similar to haiti and nicaragua and pushing families out for trying to make a better

life for themselves or trying to tear them down or build walls will not make our country safer or stronger. the people who are a part of this country, the immigrants and the folks who are part of the communities is what makes our city and our country stronger. (applause) and we are here to remind residents in san francisco, in this city you will always be defended, you will always be supported and we in san francisco are a sanctuary city today, tomorrow and always. (applause) el centro bayview will be a place of community, a place where families can grow and

thrive and children can reach their dreams. when we open the resource center we're telling the administration we will not back down from our values here in san francisco. we will stand strong, we will stand proud, we will continue to do all we can to put the resources into resource centers like this that are going to continue to support our families. this is so important. this is a major step in the right direction and i'm so grateful to our many community partners who make this work possible, the ones in the trenches doing the work working with our communities and families and at this time i want to bring up sam reese for some comment. (applause) >> and i was going to talk a little bit about family resource centers but somebody beat me to it. (laughter) excellent, you're hired.

so good morning everyone. before i say anything more, out of respect for someone who helped us lead the process for this site to become a reality, honorable mayor lee. without his support we wouldn't be here this morning. with that being said, i would appreciate it if i could use one of my five minutes specifically in honor of mayor lee. a minute of silence, please. (moment of silence) thank you everyone. much appreciated.

so, we are here at the site called southeast families united. this is an early care and family facility, one of 11 sites mission operates in various neighborhoods in san francisco. this site is introducing a family resource center with one goal in mind, that is to provide our children attending these classrooms with the necessary support for our families to thrive. it is the parent who is the first teacher and the first teacher must always be ready to engage with their child, to support their child, to nurture the child so he/she can develop into an individual who is a contributor to our community and our society. the reality is that it's not just what the child learns in the classroom, it's also what happens at the home.

unfortunately, many, most of our families whose child is attending our classrooms here are experiencing significant barriers, significant challenges at home. and mostly because they have been through the eviction process. in san francisco in the mission district in the last 10 years we've lost 8,000 families. that's a lot of folks. and yes, they have moved, they have relocated to counties outside of san francisco, but the neighborhood of choice, there have been two neighborhoods of choice for families relocating, one is bayview hunters point and the other is the exselsior. it's no longer about families renting a room to live in, it's

renting a hallway to live in. that places significant issues on our families and the family resource center with a competent team will support these families as they move on to hopefully a better situation. so, i also want to say that i'm glad that our courts have stepped in to address the issue that was just identified by our mayor. but i also have another stark reality that i think we need to accept. our core value at mission neighborhood centers with early head start program is to prepare the child to enter school and succeed throughout so they can graduate and continue on to college and graduate. now, the reality that we're facing whether we want to accept it or not is in our prison system. let's all understand one fact, fact of life that you cannot contradict, not 50, not 60, not

70, not 80% but more than 80% of our prisoners, of our men and women happen to be high school drop-outs. over 80%. now, yes, it's true at this site we'll only look after 52 children, but all the data that we have, every single report we have read, those children, children from low income families who have access to early education programs will most likely graduate and continue on to college and graduate from college. that's our goal and with support from mayor breed, we'll make that a reality. in closing, i would like to acknowledge that this effort, our coalition and frc at this point is being introduced because of two other organizations with mission neighborhood centers at the

lead, good samaritan community resource center. (applause) is one of our partners. our second is mission economic association. (applause) so with that, i would like to thank the mayor's office of community housing -- mayor's office of housing and community development. they keep changing the name. my apologies. (laughter) thank you very much. so i would like to introduce our next speaker, a client of mission neighborhood centers, a parent, anna (spanish) (applause) we'll have translation services for those who can't speak spanish. thank you. (voice of translator): hello

good morning. i'm very grateful to be here to be here with everyone here at mission neighborhood centers. (speaking french) (speaking spanish) (voice of translator): my experience with missionary neighborhood centers is they have provided childcare for me and one of my daughters is there as well. (speaking spanish) (voice of translator): there's a lot of people here in our community that don't know a lot about the services here in our

community. (speaking spanish) (voice of translator): a lot of the barriers that our latino community here face is not being able to speak english and just being afraid because they don't speak english. (speaking spanish) (voice of translator): many times we are in fear so we don't seek services because we don't have our immigration status in order. (speaking spanish) (voice of translator): our community here needs houses and jobs. (speaking spanish)

(voice of translator): i think that if our community here was aware of more services, things would be a lot easier for us. (speaking spanish) (voice of translator): i hope that together here in this community of bayview, together we can all do more. (speaking spanish) (voice of translator): many times in my case i live here in the bayview district but have had to go to the mission district to get services. (speaking spanish)

(voice of translator): thank you for opening the center and for it being able to support me and to work together. (end of translation) (applause) >> so our san francisco latino parity and equity coalition consists of 21 member organizations and included in those 21, the executive director is joining us this morning and is the next speaker. (applause) >> good morning. today is a good day. like a few days recently, when we're able to come together and not only celebrate the opening and expansion of services to latino families in san francisco and immigrant families, like we heard our mothers talk about how important it is to have access

to services in your community and not have to travel, which is always difficult when you have children, especially if you're taking public transportation and this is a long time coming. the latino community has been part of the bayview district for decades and has been underserved and so this space creates an opportunity to build a community and black and brown and multicultural alliances, mainly with low income families in our cities. we're proud of the advocacy that resulted in additional resources granted by mayor lee so we could be here today expanding services to our children and families and make the best investment a city can make, in our children, youth and families. and we're happy to say justice is ruling in favor of our youth once again and of what's right. san francisco has been a pillar

in the nation and even internationally in terms of expanding protections for immigrant communities, making sure that our city is a city that affirms a value that we're a city for everyone. we know this ruling today will only lead us to a greater victory for the dreamers, because they are one of our city's, our nation's greatest assets. they're bilingual, they're bicultural. today we're investing in our most precious assets, our children, youth and families. congratulations and let the work continue. thank you mayor. (applause) >> thank you for the words. and also mayor london breed, thank you for being with us this morning. it is greatly appreciated. and with those words, also thank

all of you for joining us this morning and this press conference now is closed. thank you very much. thank you. (applause) ♪ ♪
