Mentioning the Following :
In
my point of view “ Service Excellence Awards to Villa Group Of hotels” is an
excellent initiative. Further, I genuinely feel that “Asian CSR Leadership
Awards” seems to be an excellent opportunity to value our chairman’s work (his
Foundation, Villa Group of Company’s including Villa hotels). This could be
either, an individual or company award.

Dear Dr.Bhatia,
I am apologies for late replying and kindly please find the
attachment as my revert,
With Warm Regards
Iqbal Adam.
Please find below the letter for your kind
perusal.
30th August 2012.
Dear
Dr.Bhatia,
Hope
you are fine and in good health.
Foremost, I wish to apologize for the miscommunication. Since our initial
communication, I have put all the efforts to clear the communication issue
between all the stakeholders involved in the highlighted process.
Unfortunately, due to our Chairman’s inconceivable busy schedule in the
past couple of days, I was not able to
meet and discuss the issues we had during this process. However, I met with him
yesterday and have discussed the delaying/unclear payment process issues with
him.
After yesterdays meeting with our Chairman, it is quite apparent that he
was very much under the impression that the amount was $2500 (two thousand five
hundred dollars) not $ 25,000(twenty five thousand dollars). By some means this
communication error has occurred.
Dear
Sir, Mr. Qasim Ibrahim always honours his commitments. He is not an individual
who would provoke anyone to dishonor any agreed terms. Further, with his and
company’s colossal financial difficulties, he has ‘been putting all his efforts
to help any such invents and/or individuals who need his help.
Sir,
this is a genuine communication error. We do agree that this is an apologetic
situation; regardless, I thought I would share the highlighted points
accordingly. It is not our intention to create a barrier between two parties. I
apologize for the miscommunication and would appreciate it if we could resolve
this matter.
I
regret any inconvenience this inadvertent matter may have caused.
Thank you very much.
Sincerely
Iqbal Adam
Secretary to Hon.Qasim Ibrahim.
