10 YOUR TELNO 181: VISIT TO HONG KONG BY MR LUCE
·
A reply on timings and on accompanying officials is in
12 my telno 140.
13 2. Mr Luce and party will be glad to join the Governor and
14 Lady Youde at Fanling Lodge on 26 February.
15 3.
On the programme, you will have seen from my telno 140 16
that there is likely to be an additional half day on the Tuesday 17 morning, 28 February. It is important for visiting Ministers

to be able to demonstrate that they have met the widest possible
people in
range of the Hong Kong publicą. Mr Luce would therefore be grateful if some at least of this time could be set aside to
meet other groups in Hong Kong besides EXCO and UMELCO and
22 those who would attend a meal at Government House.
One
23 possibility would be to arrange a reception: this would

presumably be more manageable and enable Mr Luce to meet a wider cross section of people than any kind of formal meeting.
