LORD CAITHNESS: VISIT TO HONG KONG
see Part B
folio (88)
10. WE HAVE BEEN CONSIDERING HOW WE MIGHT BEST HANDLE THE MEDIA for rep from
FOR THE MINISTER'S FORTHCOMING VISIT TO HONG KONG.
2. ONE IDEA, ON WHICH WE WOULD LIKE YOUR AND BTC'S VIEWS, WOULD BE TO OFFER AN EXCLUSIVE ARTICLE TO ONE OF THE LOCAL NEWSPAPERS, FOR INSTANCE THE ORIENTAL DAILY NEWS. ON THE DAY OF PUBLICATION WE WOULD ISSUE TRANSLATIONS, IE: ORIGINALS, BOTH HERE AND THROUGH THE BTC. THIS SHOULD ENSURE A WIDE COVERAGE.
3. IF WE DID THIS, WE WOULD NOT PLAN TO HOLD A PRESS CONFERENCE BUT TO DO A SERIES OF ONE ON ONE INTERVIEWS ON 21 FEBRUARY. PRECISE ARRANGEMENTS COULD BE DECIDED NEARER THE TIME.
