Report of Independent Registered Public
Accounting Firm

The Shareholders and Board of Directors of
Aberdeen Emerging Markets Equity Income Fund,
Inc.:
In planning and performing our audit of the financial
statements of Aberdeen Emerging Markets Equity
Income Fund, Inc. (the "Fund"), as of and for the year
ended December 31, 2019, in accordance with the
standards of the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board (United States), we considered the
Fund's internal control over financial reporting,
including controls over safeguarding securities, as a
basis for designing our auditing procedures for the
purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial
statements and to comply with the requirements of
Form N-CEN, but not for the purpose of expressing
an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund's internal
control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we
express no such opinion.

Management of the Fund is responsible for
establishing and maintaining effective internal control
over financial reporting. In fulfilling this responsibility,
estimates and judgments by management are
required to assess the expected benefits and related
costs of controls. A company's internal control over
financial reporting is a process designed to provide
reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of
financial reporting and the preparation of financial
statements for external purposes in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles. A
company's internal control over financial reporting
includes those policies and procedures that (1)
pertain to the maintenance of records that, in
reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the
transactions and dispositions of the assets of the
company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that
transactions are recorded as necessary to permit
preparation of financial statements in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles, and that
receipts and expenditures of the company are being
made only in accordance with authorizations of
management and directors of the company; and (3)
provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention
or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or
disposition of the company's assets that could have a
material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control
over financial reporting may not prevent or detect
misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of
effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk
that controls may become inadequate because of
changes in conditions, or that the degree of
compliance with the policies or procedures may
deteriorate.

A deficiency in internal control over financial reporting
exists when the design or operation of a control does
not allow management or employees, in the normal
course of performing their assigned functions, to
prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis. A
material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of
deficiencies, in internal control over financial
reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility
that a material misstatement of the Fund's annual or
interim financial statements will not be prevented or
detected on a timely basis.
Our consideration of the Fund's internal control over
financial reporting was for the limited purpose
described in the first paragraph and would not
necessarily disclose all deficiencies in internal control
that might be material weaknesses under standards
established by the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board (United States). However, we noted
no deficiencies in the Fund's internal control over
financial reporting and its operation, including controls
over safeguarding securities that we consider to be a
material weakness as defined above as of December
31, 2019.

This report is intended solely for the information and
use of management and the Board of Directors of the
Fund and the Securities and Exchange Commission
and is not intended to be and should not be used by
anyone other than these specified parties.
