Post Graduate Course in

Administrative Development for Hong Kong

Further to my letter of 25th October and our subsequent conversations, I confirm that I am now arranging to bring the course members to the F.C.O. on 2nd February. We will be at the main entrance at 1355 hours.

I have explained to Norman Ling that any changes to the programme will have to be notified to us in time for us to communicate with the students in nine separate colleges at Oxford. I will be in Hong Kong until 1st February but my secretary (Mrs To) can make contact with the students if necessary. There are nine Admin- istrative Officers on this years course and two have their wives with them. Both wives are Executive Officers in the Hong Kong Government service. I enclose brief biodata.

Finally, you may be interested to see the enclosed note I made of the talk given to the group by Walter Easey during their programme in London. Some of Walter's statements were contradicted by the talks they had from Christopher Howe and Dick Wilson and from Denis Bray and myself. However, the rebuttal of Easey's thesis which made the most impression on the group was made by Li Chiang in Hong Kong!
