How are you?

My 1st CS host in KL, tall/slim/sexy Indian guy Dilip,
accepted my couch request very soon, I am happy to meet him in this city.

吉隆坡第一位印度型男沙發主Dilip向您問好！今天他睡到中午被我叫來當麻豆拍照。

He gave me the reference via couch surfing:
Richard had amazing memory of his experiences in CS and able to narrate it well and witty. He can really go on and on, so ask him to stop or be overwhelmed with knowledge of the world. He is very independent and funny. He can cook well I think but I didnt give him much chance at the kitchen. Thanks for the calligraphy and the gifts.. Sorry for not being able to show around much but was happy you were very prepared for KL sightseeing.

I sent the reference to him as below:
If there is one more "Super Positive" option to describe the CS experience, I would like to use it to share my greatest meeting and surfing at Dilip home.

A Bollywood prince (tall, handsome and very charming guy), picked me up near his job location, went to take coffee shop & a interesting bazaar (food market) near his home.

Wish to have one more time to meet this excellent friend again because I know that this friendship will be kept longer in future.

Taiwan welcomes progress on working holiday pact with France 台法打工度假協定 近期簽署

http://focustaiwan.tw/news/aipl/201309170009.aspx

Taipei, Sept. 17 (CNA) Taiwan is aiming to sign a working holiday agreement with France as soon as possible, a foreign affairs official said Tuesday, following a French official's suggestion that an accord could be signed soon.

"We have been in talks with France on signing such an agreement," said Zhang Ming-zhong, director-general of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' Department of European Affairs.

Asked about a report that Interior Minister Manuel Valls said in a letter to French Senator Richard Yung that the agreement could be signed soon, Zhang said such a development was welcomed.

In Valls' letter dated Sept. 12, which Yung posted on his Senate website, the minister said he has brought new initiative to concluding similar working holiday agreements after they had been blocked by the previous government.

Indicating that a potential agreement with Taiwan presented "particular difficulties," Valls wrote that he has been working with other agencies to establish the proper legal format for such a deal.

"I am happy to inform you that these exchanges have advanced to the point that enable the signature of the bilateral accord in the very near future," the letter read.

If the pact is inked, France will join New Zealand, Australia, Japan, Canada, Germany, South Korea, Ireland, Belgium and the United Kingdom as countries having signed a working-holiday agreement with Taiwan.

Such working holiday programs have been popular among Taiwanese young adults.

（中央社記者蔡筱穎巴黎16日專電）法國內政部長瓦爾（Manuel Valls）12日致函法國參議院議員里夏永（Richard Yung），就台法打工度假協定計畫指出，可望於近期內完成簽署，屆時雙方將派代表換函進行。

關切台法打工度假協定已有3年的里夏永，今天在其參議院的個人網站公布12日瓦爾答覆他的信函。

瓦爾指出，台法打工度假協定計畫，就整體而言，他積極推動原遭前政府擱置的相關協定，並順利完成簽署。

瓦爾表示，在內政部與外交部相關單位協力研議下，相關協定內容在台灣獨特地位下涉及的法律層面問題已獲釐清，包括在法國國內法增設但書條款，以允許台灣打工度假年輕人在法工作。

瓦爾強調，在兩部積極合作下，相關協定進展順利，可望於近期內完成簽署，屆時將由雙方派駐代表以換函方式進行。

此外，瓦爾也說明，最高行政法院將頒佈法令修正勞工法第R5221-3條，增列第15點明確規定，凡持長期簽證並註記「度假打工」及「暫免居留證」者，即可在簽證有效期限內獲准工作，此將適用於所有持打工度假簽證的外國青年。1020917
