As we conclude an excellent summer of events and activities, followed by the Jewish New Year

In addition to the information presented in this issue, I am pleased to report that our town is showing many signs of recovery from the crisis of Summer 2006. Unemployment rates are down, visitor's numbers are significantly up and many new construction and infrastructure projects have begun.
I hope you share our optimism and keep staying in touch with us in the future.
Respectfully,
Zohar Oved.
Dear friends of Tiberias in Israel and abroad,
As we have begun doing in the past months, we are offering the 5th issue of "Tiberias-up-to-
date" newsletter to you. The Foreign Affairs committee has decided to create a new and independent web site open to all. You may reach the newsletter through a link from the official municipal web site www.tiberias.muni.il , click "English information" and read all the latest news and events.
This issue offers links to other related sites including: information on the Second Lebanese War, the archeological excavations web site, touristic information and much more. We are sure that you will find the information interesting and get a wider perspective of the various activities and projects taking place in the city.
On October 25th, a municipal delegation lead by Mayor Oved, including myself and other leading businessmen from Tiberias will be visiting Wuxi in the Peoples Republic of China for the signing of a Twin city agreement between Wuxi and Tiberias. We plan to develop new collaborative efforts in areas of culture, sports, economy and other friendly relations. One major area of cooperation being discussed is the establishment of the new Research and Development incubating center for the development of inventions in areas such as environment, medical and para-medical products and industry. We see in our new ties with China a fit with the global trends. China is undergoing massive development in recent years and the connection with Tiberias and Israel is of great importance.
As in every issue of the newsletter, we welcome your comments and suggestions leading to strengthening the ties with our friends abroad.
We invite you to come and visit Tiberias, the historical city which is currently renewing infrastructure and image.
With sincere feelings of appreciation and friendship,
Eitan Oved,
