The evening of December 12 was marked by the traditional pre-Christmas meeting of the members of the chamber in Bratislava's Carlton Hotel. Pleasant meetings, conversations, sharing of successes of the ending year and plans for the coming year contributed to a pleasant festive atmosphere. We are happy that the Swiss ambassador in Slovakia, Peter Nelson, and his colleagues from the embassy came and joined us. As every year, there was a musical program this time performed by the talented Slovak singer Andrea Bučko with band.
