AIRPORT: LINKAGE WITH CONSTITUTIONAL ISSUES
Our view is that these quite different issues should be
dealt with separately, and on their merits. Chinese officials have frequently said the same thing.
All agree that Hong Kong needs a new airport if it is to
remain an international trade and financial centre.
Hong Kong Government getting on with work on the Airport
where possible. Still need to resolve financing issues with
the Chinese: hope this can be done soon so that the airport
can be ready on time.
