and Malaysia) in 1970
Mr Mayall's attached circular asks for particulars,
by 9 June, of any additions or deletions that Departments
wish to make to the proposed programme of inward and
outward Royal Visits for 1970 and 1971. Hong Kong
Department have no additions or deletions to recommend,
but there are two proposals in the programme which con-
cern us:
2.

On
Λ
a possible visit by Princess Alexandra to
to Hong Kong and Malaysia, probably in late
1970.
(ii) a possible visit by The Queen and the Duke
of Edinburgh to Singapore, Malaysia and
Thailand in January, 1971.
(i), I attach the submission which was prepared
for the last meeting of the Royal Visits Committee on
18 February. On that occasion the Committee "agreed
to reconsider at a later stage the proposals for visits
to Fiji (which would depend on the political situation
in the Island), to California, to Argentina (for the
Trade Fair) and for Princess Alexandra to Malaysia
and Hong Kong: it might be possible for two or more
of these visits to be combined."
