H.M. MINISTER.
Note.
Sir,
20th. February 1930.
107
I have to acknowledge the receipt of your note
of the 27th. of last month, stating that the Chinese
Section of the Canton Kowloon Railway is very much in
need of rehabilitation, and forwarding a copy of a memorandum
prepared by the Government of Hong Kong; and requesting
that the matter be brought to the attention of the Ministry
of Railways, so that they may at an early date undertake
the repairs.
2.
On receipt of the above note, this Ministry
immediately approached the Ministry of Railways that
they might act upon it and the following reply has now
been received:
"In regard to the matter of the letter from
the Governor of Hong Kong, requesting the rehabilitation of
the Chinese section of the Canton Kowloon Railway, We
have instructed the Administration of the said railway
to consider this question, and send us a report upon
which action may be taken."
I have the honour to communicate this for the
information of Your Excellency, and I avail myself of
this opportunity, etc.
