With the successful implementation of AeTM in Greater China, Huawei is planning to roll out the solution in its other markets which include Latin America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific.

The solution will help Huawei administer its global employee travel needs and manage its corporate travel policy in a seamless manner. AeTM allows Huawei�s travel managers to customise the system, to accommodate the company�s travel guidelines and manage employees� travel itineraries more easily, streamlining the process and eventually leading to reduced travel expenditure for the company.

Ren Shulu, Vice President, Huawei, said the company has complex corporate travel needs.

�Amadeus was the perfect technology partner to help us provide the flexibility we require while integrating all the elements of our corporate travel programmes onto a single platform, simplifying the travel process for our employees and reducing travel costs,� said Shulu.

Grand Picnic event offers vintage fun for everyone

The Holmen Area Historical Society plans to open up its third annual Grand Picnic next Sunday to a segment of the population that might love picnicking more than anyone: children.Of course, it should be fun for adults also � who doesn't love a good picnic? � but this year picnic organizers have introduced a basketful of games that should have kids smiling like they're in a Norman Rockwell painting."We're trying to emphasize historic games, things that have been done at fairs and picnics forever," said Lynne Valiquette, program director for the historical society.Hence the lineup of games that don't require handheld controllers � unless you count the relay race involving a potato on a spoon. Also planned are burlap sack races, kite-flying contests and a sawdust pile where kids can dig for money.Valiquette found the rules for some activities on the Internet, but mostly the Holmen Area Historical Society looked to its own when planning events kids played way back when."We have people who've seen a lot in their years," Valiquette said.
