Letter of Apology<\/p>\n

Dear Rui\u2019an City Government:<\/p>\n

On the evening of June 4, the city government and relevant organs arrived at the Grand Star Hotel to direct business, but hotel staff did not actively cooperate. We wish to extend our deepest regret, and hope that you will understand. Once again, we want to express our most sincere apologies.<\/p>\n

Rui\u2019an Grand Star Hotel<\/p>\n

June 11, 2012<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Responding to the online backlash against the local government, a Rui\u2019an mayoral assistant told New Express<\/a><\/em> on June 15, \u201cThis isn\u2019t what people think. They made this apology without our knowledge. I have no idea if the person responsible is just ignorant or took the opportunity to be provocative.\u201d The hotel has already closed for business due to \u201cincomplete licensing and noise.\u201d<\/p>\n
