On 2 November 1990, the British side informed the Chinese JRojan Peking upr. 194 side of the intention that Hong Kong should enter into agreements
with a number of other jurisdictions with whom it is necessary to
increase cooperation in the investigation of drug trafficking and
the confiscation of the proceeds of drug trafficking.

The Chinese side have previously been informed of the
intention that Hong Kong should enter into similar bilateral
agreements with the Governments of Canada (3 August 1990), the
United States of America (31 October 1990), and Australia
(12 April 1991).

a bilateral agreement with the Government of Malaysia to provide
for mutual assistance in the investigation of drug trafficking
and the confiscation of the proceeds of drug trafficking.

extendable annually thereafter by mutual consent. It is not
