HONG KONG: BRITISH NATIONALS (OVERSEAS): TRAVEL TO THIRD COUNTRIES
FACILITATING
1. Thank you for your "Round-Robin" letter to heads of Post of 23 September. Before making an approach to the Czecho- slovak authorities on the line you suggest, it would be useful to have from you or from Hong Kong Department a defensive line to take on Hong Kong's non-admission of Soviet or East
Has any consideration yet been European passport holders. given to dropping this blanket ban, and if so, is there anything we could hint at with the local authorities here that might make them a little more helpful over recognition of BN (0) status? Frankly, having turned down two requests from Czechoslovak officials to travel to Hong Kong on business only two months ago your proposals are anything but likely to elicit public expressions of support of the kind you would like in this quarter unless some change in the rules on entry of warsaw Pact nationals is in prospect.
