I think you raise a good point, you know, what's the process for solidifying a friendship and you know, really a sister city agreement. And it does have a sort of a contractual nature to it. So there is going to be a, you know, a meeting of the minds, a moment of probably ceremonial handshake, but more than that, you know, there is going to be signing of documents with commitments that behind those commitments are financial,…”
