Isabel goes on to send her regards to the Agep-V ladies back in Vi�a: "We are here... in my Sausalito office, with a group of friends, your colleagues, and hopefully next time you can come. We're waiting for you with open arms."

Rolando Ortega expressed his delight at spending time with the Agep-V delegation over the course of the week at the various events organized in Sausalito. Events that highlight the excellent relationship that exists between the two coastal cities, Sausalito and Vi�a del Mar, and by extension the Fifth Region. The Consul said: "This is an accord that dates back to 1960, that has gained great momentum over the past four years. There have been consecutive visits by the respective city mayors, in both directions, thus we can safely say that there exists a true friendship between the people of both regions, and we will work to continue to allow this to be so. The visiting delegation has participated in a very interesting program, that surely will be repeated in the future, and that will continue to have all of our support.

The Consul concluded by thanking the ladies for their visit to the Chilean Consulate in San Francisco, he alluded to the similarities between Chile and California, and he sent his warmest regards to all the members of Agep-V.
