Why do they tell me that late? When I manage to send both or either of the above to OCT to allow them to re-evalute my application, I will have to wait until Dec or Jan to start supply teaching. Besides, it depends if they will accept my teaching at a post-secondary institute (HKIVE) equvialent to teaching at a secondary school or not.
This letter has really pissed me off!

Hang in there. The Canadians are not famous for their efficiency. So you need to be a bit more patient.
Anyway, anyhow, if you have trouble arranging things from abroad, esp. given the time difference, just let us know and see if Siu-kuen and I may do something.

Read your email about the Cantonese software. Siu-keun will try to visit HKPTA today and see if she can find it.
Meanwhile, you should receive the two books in about a week.
Keep it up!
