General
Welcome back to those, like us, who have returned from their Christmas Holiday to start a new business year. Although 2011 ended with more shakes (which experts say could last decades!) we hope that 2012 will be more positive for those businesses that managed to make it through 2011.
Please receive the Feng Office team wishes of
Happy Holidays!
And a happy, organized, efficient, -complete- and overall wonderful 2012.
The added stresses of a year full of earthquakes has meant the Christchurch Women’s Refuge has been busier than ever. Every year at this time, the call goes out for donations of gifts suitable for families who find themselves needing the support of Women’s Refuge over the Christmas holiday period.
We are really happy.
We’ve been working for over a year on the new Feng Office 2.0.

These events have been a catalyst for the big questions, forcing many of us in business to examine what it is we do, why and how we do it… and if we want to continue doing it.

On Thursday morning I donned a borrowed hardhat and high viz vest, and joined a small group of business owners escorted in to the CBD Red Zone. Three months after the February quake, it was the first time Hot PJ had official access to try and retrieve what we could from our remaining office in the Whitcoulls Building.
A week has just passed when some Christchurch CBD business and property owners, angry and desperate from the lack of communication from Civil Defence and fearful of the fate of their businesses, joined together in protest at the Art Gallery to try and get answers.
