Dear Mr. Clauson,
There is a question under the Hong Kong
Companies' Ordinance 1932 whether private companies
such as ours require to file a copy of their balance
sheets, and our Hong Kong house advise us that the
Registrar in Hong Kong has an open mind on the subject
and is writing home for a ruling. We do not have to
file copies of our private balance sheet in this
country and naturally do not wish to do so in Hong Kong.
Can you inform us from whom we can obtain definite
information on this point, as it is a question of some importance to us?
Yours sincerely,
Chu Chita
G.L.M.Clausen Esq., 0.B.E.,
