First of all, I want to thank you all for coming to this party. I have thrown this party, because I wanted to thank you all for being kind to me while I have been here.

Looking back, it seems like a very short five years living here and working together with you. My wife and I still remember the first day we arrived in Los Angeles, and every thing looked so huge, compared with things in Taipei. The first several months were a difficult time, but we tried very hard to adapt ourselves to the new environment, new life style, and a new place of work. There were times of disappointment¹, anger, and humiliation², and there were also times of joy, excitement, and happiness, Through them all, you have always been with us to share the sorrow³ and happiness, and we are deeply⁴ grateful⁵ to you for that

Millions of thanks to you all, and don't forget to finish your dinner before it gets cold.
