Christmas Greetings Message from the President of the Republic and Mrs. Cavaco Silva
Palace of Belém, 22 December 2009

Here we are once more to wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

At Christmas we join together as a Family, we consort with Friends and we enjoy sharing gifts and affection.

It is a time when we should remember the lonely, the sick, the unemployed and those which are going through difficulties and do not have the opportunity to enjoy the happiness which pertains to this season.

And also those who, for reasons of distance, are unable to join their families.

There are always people to whom we wish to forward a more fraternal gesture at this time of the Year.

People to whom such a small gesture could make a big difference.

We wish you all, those who are near and those who are far – a Merry Christmas and a Joyous New Year.

Best Christmas Greetings to you all.
