AFRICAN ELEPHANT WORKING GROUP:
HONG KONG REPRESENTATION
We spoke this afternoon about the request from Hong Kong to the CITES Secretariat to provide funds to allow a Hong Kong Government representative to attend the second meeting of the AEWG.
I attach the relevant correspondence.
I have sympathy with the WWFU and agree that Hong Kong representation is crucial in view of the Hong Kong Ivory
Trade interest.
