FORTIETH ANNIVERSARY TRIBUTE.
1. THE MANAGING DIRECTOR OF HONG KONG ELECTRIC COMPANY, EWAN YEE, HAS ASKED ME FOR ADVICE ON AN APPROACH HE HAS HAD FROM KEVIN BARRY (NO FUNCTION OR TITLE PROVIDED) OF RPC ATALINK PRODUCTIONS, 40 BOWLING GREEN LANE, LONDON EC1, TELEPHONE 071-278 0333, ABOUT A PUBLICATION '40TH ANNIVERSAY TRIBUTE TO BE PUBLISHED IN JANUARY 1992 TO MARK THE 40TH ANNIVERSAY OF HM THE QUEEN'S ASCENSION TO THE THRONE. KEVIN BARRY HAS APPROACHED YEE, FIRST BY TELEPHONE AND THEN BY FAX, SEEKING A POUNDS 11,500 CONTRIBUTION FOR A FULL PAGE ADVERTISEMENT. YEE HAS SOUGHT MY ADVICE ON THE AUTHENTICITY OF THE (APPEAL. HE SAYS IF IT HAS ANY OFFICIAL
STANDING THEN HE WOULD BE HAPPY TO CONTRIBUTE THE SUM REQUESTED
BUT WOULD PREFER TO DO SO THROUGH THIS OFFICE RATHER THAN TO RPC ATALINK PRODUCTIONS.
2. THE FAX WHICH HE HAS RECEIVED, WHICH HE HAS COPIED TO ME, SAYS THAT PROFITS FROM THE PUBLICATION WILL BE GIVEN TO THE ROYAL ANNIVERSARY TRUST WHICH IS HEAD BY GEORGE YOUNGER MP AND INCLUDED FIGURES SUCH AS SIR ANGUS OGILVIE, VISCOUNT WHITELAW, MERLYN REES MP, SIR EVELYN DE ROTHSCHILD ETC. THE EDITOR OF
**40TH ANNIVERSARY TRIBUTE'' IS GODFREY TALBOT, THE FORMER BBC CORRESPONDENT.
3. GRATEFUL FOR ANY ADVICE THAT I MIGHT GIVE TO EWAN YEE. HONG KONG ELECTRIC ARE PART OF THE HUTCHISON GROUP AND MAJOR BUYERS
FROM THE UK. EWAN YEE WAS INVITED TO A ROYAL GARDEN PARTY
THIS YEAR ALTHOUGH WAS UNABLE TO LEAVE HONG KONG AT THE TIME.
