Since many netters have asked the statement I have used for the tax
purpose, and I think this maybeof the general interest, so  I just post
the statement to the net, with all the personal information deleted (sorry
for that, but it is understandable, right?). Hope this will help a little
bit. 

Mi Mi Sr.
