Hi, I had a few suggestions on the AVP article. Very good work, but the China section could use some expansion. Andrea Jung talked about the growth in number of sales representatives in China. Sept they had 130k active sales reps, and 677k sales promoters. They're looking to be closer to 200k active sales reps and they're adding 40k sales promoters each month. This is still an accelerating pace, and should fuel their growth in china substantially. Hope this helps, -Matthew Stein
