He adds that he would obviously be prepared to sound out, without commit- ment, aid the kinds of management assistance India might wish to have from Britain over the next few years.
His provisional time-table would be:
India:
20/26th October;
27th and 28th October free for possible extension of stay in India or possibly a short visit to Bangkok on the way to Hong Kong
Hong Kong: 28th/31st October
Japan:
1st/8th November
We should be grateful for your reaction to these proposals and, if you agree with then, for an early approach to the Government of Hong Kong to inform them and secure their reactions and suggestions.
Yours sincerely
