TOP COPY Q DIST?
IS
VISIT BY SAUDI MINISTER TO HONG KONG.
1.
WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED BY A COMMERCIAL ORGANISATION, MARINE TRANSPORT INTERNATIONAL CO LTD, THAT DR.FAYEX BIN IBRAHIM BADR, MINISTER OF STATE FOR THE SAUDI ARABIAN PORTS AUTHORITY, WILL BE VISITING HONG KONG FROM 1 TO 5 MARCH TO ATTEND THE 'INTERNATIONAL CONTAINERISATION AND INTERMODAL EXPO'. MARINE TRANSPORT INTERNATIONAL CO LTD HAS BEEN TASKED (PRESUMABLY BY THE SAUDI AUTHORITIES) WITH ARRANGING THE EXHIBITION AND THE MINISTER'S
VISIT.
2. AS THE SAUDI'S HAVE NO CONSULAR REPRESENTATION IN HONG KONG, IT WOULD BE HELPFUL TO HAVE CONFIRMATION OF THE MINISTER'S VISIT AND ANY OTHER INFORMATION YOU CAN GLEAN, (E.G. FLIGHT ARRIVAL AND DEPARTURE DETAILS).
