EXPORT OF SUCH PRODUCTS TO SOUTH AFRICA WILL BE REJECTED. THERE HAS NOT BEEN ANY EXPORT OF SUCH PRODUCTS TO SOUTH AFRICA IN THE PAST FEW YEARS.
(VI) ITEM (F) HONG KONG DOES NOT HAVE ANY OIL PRODUCTION AND SO THERE IS NO EXPORT OF OIL. IN ANY CASE, THE IMPORT AND
AND EXPORT OF OIL ARE SUBJECT TO LICENSING CONTROL. WE ARE ALSO NOT AWARE OF ANY RE-EXPORT OF OIL TO SOUTH AFRICA.
(VII) ITEM (G) IMPORTS OF ARMS ARE REGULATED BY THE IMPORT AND EXPORT (STRATEGIC COMMODITIES) REGULATIONS. ALTHOUGH THERE IS NO LEGAL PROVISION THAT WOULD AUTOMATICALLY REJECT AN APPLICATION FOR IMPORT OF ARMS FROM SOUTH AFRICA, WE HAVE INTRODUCED ADMINISTRATIVE MEASURES TO ENSURE THAT SUCH APPLICATIONS WILL NOT (NOT) BE APPROVED IN FUTURE, TO AVOID A REPEAT OF INCIDENTS LIKE THE DOMINION AGENCIES CASE (YOUR TELNO 1503). IN ADDITION, WE HAVE ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURES TO ENSURE THAT THE ROYAL HONG KONG POLICE FORCE, WHICH IS THE ONLY HKG ORGANIZATION INTERESTED IN WEAPONS IMPORTS, WOULD NOT PURCHASE ARMS FROM SOUTH AFRICA:
(VIII) ITEM (H) HKG HAS NOT ENTERTAINED ANY REQUEST FOR MILITARY COOPERATION WITH SOUTH AFRICA. DEPARTMENTS THAT MAY BE APPROACHED ON SUCH REQUESTS HAVE BEEN REMINDED REGULARLY OF THE BAN ON CO-OPERATION: AND
(IX) ITEM (I)
WE HAVE HAD NO PROBLEM WITH THIS AS IT IS
ALREADY OUR EXISTING POLICY TO DISCOURAGE PARTICIPATION IN SUCH ACTIVITIES.
