We have been asked to pass the enclosed message from Masefield of the Information Branch, Government Secretariat, Hong Kong, to you on arrival and to let Miss Lee have the enclosed fact sheets and pamphlets which we have received from James Tse of Government Information Services in Hong Kong.
We have been in touch with Sigvard Tarrenias of Luther- hjälpen in Uppsala, who we understand had already been in touch with you, and who has made the following arrangements.
Wednesday 21 May:
Thursday 22 May:
all-day visit to Uppsala
all-day visit to Labour Market Ministry and Labour Market Board (who have primary responsibility in Sweden for the settlement of refugees).
We have therefore tried to arrange some calls for Friday 23 May with contacts who have an interest in and some influence on Swedish policy on Vietnamese refugees. At present the programme looks something like this:

Call on HM Ambassador.
