„During the Ming Dynasty, Japanese pirates merauded the coast of China and devastated villages all the way to Fukien. Only one man among them all was the match of the Japanese, General Chi Ching Kwong (Ti Lung). Because he was the only man who'd be able to stop them, the Japanese sent a team of highly trained Ninja to infiltrate his home and assassinate him. Knowing it would not be long before the Ninja got to him, Chi sent his only son, Ying Min, to seek the aid of an old master who had once been a pirate skilled in the art of Ninjitsu, but who had now settled down peacefully in China.Barely escaping an attack by the Ninja, Ying Min finds the old master, who tells him to seek out his three former pupils, each of whom he has trained in a different deadly art.“

„In order to improve balance on the demand side, the ICO is therefore seeking to increase coffee consumption among the 80% of the world population who do not currently drink coffee, using appropriate strategies for traditional markets, new and emerging markets, and coffee producing countries themselves. The improvement of coffee quality through the implementation of an ICO Coffee Quality-Improvement Programme (Resolution 407) is also a major initiative designed to increase coffee consumption, together with targeted promotional and educational programmes.“
