regarding the Hong-Kong wireless service.
Imperial and International Communications Limited is that

We have not, however, regarding the ship-to-shore service and the broadcasting service to enable us to deal adequately with the question. We do not wish to exclude the possibility
of taking over all three services. In order to make progress it would be desirable that a representative of the Company should get into touch with the Hong-Kong Government and
examine the whole position, and eventually, after communication
with home, the same representative could negotiate terms
with the Hong-Kong Government. Would the Colonial Office
agree to our instructing a representative accordingly, and if so would they inform the Governor of Hong-Kong that
we proposed to proceed in this way?
