VIETNAMESE BOAT PEOPLE IN HONG KONG
Your Reference
Copies to:
You wrote to me, and to some of my ministerial
colleagues, on 17 November about Vietnamese boat people
in Hong Kong.
Enclosures-flag(s)..............
I am very conscious of the burden that this problem
has imposed on Hong Kong for more than a decade.
Hong Kong has responded most generously in offering
temporary refuge to over 130,000 boat people from
Vietnam. None has ever been turned away. This is an
exemplary record, of which Hong Kong can be proud.
