*  *  *  Ladies and gentlemen, good morning: Once again, I welcome you to this gathering of exporters and policymakers, which we have been doing since 2002 to discuss issues and concerns of common interest. I am glad to see familiar faces around. I also extend a special welcome to the new attendees for finding the time to join us today.
