Dear Mr. Khalili,
I am an Iranian businessman living in UAE/Dubai. I would like to get know
you & your opinion more & discuss about a project in Iran. I listened a news
from Radio Farda that named you & explained about your idea of working wires
in the foundation of the buildings specially in the landmarks that are
located on earthquake line. As you are completely informed about recent
earthquake that destroyed 80% structure of the city I would like to invite
you to this project & request you to inform me your respected opinion in
this concern. For sure if your feedback is positive you would like to get
more familiar to me & my organization much more. I also would like to know
you more to be able to prepare a feasibility study by your help for my
proposal. Exclusive of considering human being that is primary in this
project & could save lives of thousands of people in future we could
establish a long-term business out of that. I believe if knowledge of the
project compete in the market nobody is able to stand inform of the project
& It always works. In this case I relayed on you & invite you to this
project to help many of people & break hands of opportunists & prevent such
terrible tragedy. The objective of the project is to rebuild the city with
proper foundation strong against earthquake.
I am waiting for your response.
