How magically expressed........In Pakistan, we only go so far as to say, 'please due the needful'. I always wondered what people meant when they wrote, the needful......the word itself exemplifies vagueness and then when people don't spell out what they mean by the needful and expect that you will understand, or that the word itself has a 'knowing' understanding, I really get concerned for the person whose left with the responsibility to due that 'needful'. When consequences result, the person who wrote, 'do the needful' walks away scott free. When making reference to another person's memo, using the date that you received the memo makes it easy for the other person to retrieve their mail they sent to you. I would always recommend you use a date. Begin it by saying, In reference to your memo sent on ...........(date) Have a good day....K
