4. I PLAN TO VISIT 2 On 3 UK CITIES AND AM GETTING ADVICE ON
THE HUST GO-AHEAD CHIEF EXECUTIVES. INSTEAD OF BERMUDA I WILL
VISIT AN AMERICAN CITY (PROBABLY BALTINORE, APPARENTLY VERY
HIGHLY REGARDED INTERNATIONALLY FOR THE SUCCESS OF ITS
DEVELOPMENT PLANS). IF YOU THINK SINGAPORE ESSENTIAL I WILL
VISIT 3 OR 4 DAYS IN MARCH. HAVING SEEN TOKYO 3 OR 4 TIMES IN
THE LAST FEW YEARS IT SEEMS TO ME SUCH A MANAGEMENT DISASTER
THAT I WOULD NOT WANT TO MAKE A VISIT THERE. BUT IT WOULD BE
A CONVENIENT PLACE TO ARRIVE FROM.
5. LET US GO FIRM ON 20 MAY.
