(*) Includes operations where validation material was volunteered, ie not
specifically required for credit to be given - in all cases cards now
submitted will be accepted by Checkpoints.
(**) The Chinese have pointed out that the group of islands which include
Ping Island and Cheniu Island to the south is administered from Lianyungang
City in Jiangsu Province and are therefore part of that province and not
Shandong. The IOTA Committee has in the circumstances amended the entry in
the Directory accordingly.
