DRAFT LETTER FOR THE PRIME MINISTER TO SEND TO
Sir Lawrence Kadoorie CBE KStJ(A) LLD JP Chairman
China Light and Power Company Ltd
St George Building
HONG KONG
Thank you for your letter of 12 October.
I am very heartened by the growing impetus in our relations
with China. My talks with Foreign Minister Huang Hua earlier
this month were both cordial and successful, and we touched on
your proposals for electrification into Kwangtung.
I invited Chairman Hua to visit Britain next year, and I
look forward to taking up the Chinese invitation to myself if
the Parliamentary situation here allows. But I should certainly
like to visit Hong Kong, if I can, and would be delighted to
accept your offer to see the work our companies are doing for you.
