Good evening, Comrade Setiawan.

I am Minister Burns, the administrator of Connacht Depot and financial advisor to our Chancellor.

Mr. Harris is currently occupied in the wake of recent events in Dublin, which I am sure you are aware of. He asked me to pass his regards to you and your people, commenting that you have acquitted yourselves well in the battle and more than earned docking rights at Foyle Shipyard for the Bella Ciao, as well as any other warships under your flag.

As for myself, I have a proposition of a more business-related nature. Seeing as our combined mining operations are already bearing fruit, I am interested in expanding and fortifying Connacht Depot, and your ships have access to materials that ours do not. Of course, you will be well-compensated for this task.

I am attaching the contract's details to this communique - let me know if you are interested in doing this for us.

Godspeed,
Matthew Jamie Burns
