(F) PARAGRAPH 14 REPLACE LAST SENTENCE BY HMG SHOULD UNDERSTAND AND ACT ON YOUR VIEWS.
''IMPORTANT TOO THAT
THAT IS WHY I AM
HERE.''
(G) FINAL PARAGRAPH. THE MESSAGE OF THE LAST FEW PARAGRAPHS OF
THE SPEECH IS ABSOLUTELY RIGHT, BUT THE QUOTATION WITH WHICH THE
SPEECH ENDS DOES NOT SEEM TO STRIKE QUITE THE RIGHT NOTE. PEOPLE
IN HONG KONG DO HAVE GENUINE CONCERNS ABOUT THE FUTURE AND ARGUABLY
GENUINE GROUNDS FOR CONCERN. THE ROOSAVELT QUOTATION MIGHT BE SEEN
AS DISMISSING THESE IN A RATHER PATRONISING WAY.
