My telegram No. 581 (not to Lisbon).
Industrial Disturbances in Hong Kong.
In Macao, the British Consulate, the Permit Office and the Consul's Residence have been daubed with slogans expressing sympathy for compatriots in Hong Kong. The Consulate is at present the centre of attention but nothing more aggressive than daubing has yet taken place.

We are keeping in constant contact.
The Governor of Macao is considering what steps he can take to protect the Consulate and staff.
