10 DOWNING STREET

LONDON SWIA 2AA

6 September 1991

For the Charg they

Douglas Hurd and I were delighted to have the opportunity to

visit the City Polytechnic. Even in the short time I was there,

I saw enough to be greatly impressed. Hong Kong is developing as

a knowledge based society, in which its greatest asset will be

the skills of its people. The contribution the City Polytechnic

is making to that was very evident. I very much appreciated the

warm welcome which your students gave me.

Their energy,

commitment and courtesies are a credit to the City Polytechnic.

Please pass my thanks to the Director and his staff for the

care they took in setting up the visit. I was sorry I could not

stay longer.

Finally, may I thank you for my own personal seal in

Chinese. When I use it to sign my communications with the

mandarins of Whitehall they may finally understand what I am

saying! Norma was thrilled to learn that her book was so easily

tracked down.

The Hon. Cheng Hon-kwan, OBE, JP.

fr acerely,

Your

fake

Majie
