Thank you for your letter of 6 June (3/80) about the Chinese
Ambassador's sall on Sir Richard Beaumont, We are of course interested
in such activities in the general con- text of Chinese foreign policy.
But we are in some ways even more anxious to establish whether they shed
any light on Chiness intentions in the field of our bilateral rela-
tions. I wonder therefore if the Chinese Ambassador said anything else
of interest and whether you could tell us anything about his manner? Can
we take it that this is the first such call in recent months?

6 June, 1969.
then
The High Commissioner was recently told in confidence by Tekasha, the
Ethiopian Ambassador, who is Dean of the Diplomatic Corps, that he had
been asked by the Kenyan Ministry of Foreign Affairs to defer his
impending departure from Nairobi until this month in order to help them
over an embarrassing situation.
2. When Mekasha leaves, the next Head of Hission in seniority would have
been the Chinese Ambassador, Mr. Wang Yu-tien, who left Kenya on 4 Way
1967 at the time of the Cultural Revolution and has not returned, but
who remains accredited here. Apparently the Chinese Embassy recently
intimated to the M.F.A. that fang Yu-tien would be returning. According
to Mekasha, the Kenyans were determined not to have a Chinese Dean, and
accordingly asked the Chinese to send a new Ambassador in Wang's place.
We do not know how the Chinese reacted, but it seems clear that Wang is
not coming back, since it has now been announced that Hekasha will be
succeeded as Dean by the Italians.
3.
As a tailpiece, you may like to know that on the night of Tueslay, 3
June, a six-foot long showcase on the wall of the Chinese Embassy was
blown up by persons unknown. The job appears to have been done very
professionally. This was the second similar incident within six weeks.
The culprits have not so far been discovered.

You may already have details of the ra- deployment of Chinese
Ambassadors abroad, to which the press has referred. You may however
like to know that when the Chinese Ambascador called on Sir Richard
Beaumont on 5 June he confirmed that Chinese Ambassadors who have for
about two years (with the one exception of the Ambassador here) been
closeted in Peking, are now returning to their posta and that those
accredited to Albania and France are already back, or at least en route.
The Ambassador said that others would follow soon.

Contrary to indication given earlier to the Swedish Ambassador, my

understand that agrément was asked for two days ago. This information
reached us as a result of an indiscretion and should be carefully

You may be interested to know that when the new Chinese Ambassador to
Albania, Keng Piao, left Peking for Tirana on 15 May he was accompanied
by four new staff members: a Kinister a Second Secretary, a Kilitary
Attache end an interpreter.
The group travelled together by PIA. In accordance with a stipulation in
the Sino-Pakistani air agreement, the plane touched dom at Tirana to
unload its Chinese diplomatic personnel. This is apparently the first
A time this cleuse has been invoked by the Chinese. colleague who
travelled on the same aircraft said that Keng Piao was treated with due
deference by his juniors, who addressed him as "ta shih" (ambassador).
2. It is interesting that the Chinese appear to have strengthened their
representation in Tirana as well as
Our French collea; ues appointing a new Ambassador, tell us that there
are no signs of a similar increase in the staff of the Chinese Embassy
in Peris, where the Chinese Ambassador, Huang Chen, returned on 20 May.
3. There is little to indicate which country will next be favoured by
the appointment of a new heed of mission or a returned ambassador. The
Rumanians, who are convinced that the previous Chinese representative in
Bucharest will not be returning to his post. were told by the Ibanians
that they would be next on the list. The Cambodians were assured by Chou
En-lai when he Now Sent received their new .mbassador to Peking on 29
April that
the Chinese were still in the process of selecting a "worthy" incumbent.
