ticularly from China.

investigation. Frequent meetings from the affected manufacturers are being held.

1. What’s the relevance of gathering important factors before conducting a
meeting?

Sample answer:
Important factors help the facilitator give information. It helps everyone think of an

are precisely studied before conducting a meeting, there is no reason why a meeting
would not be successful.
