At the present moment when the relations between our

two countries are daily becoming more cordial, it seems necessary

for the Hong Kong Government to give up its original proposal to

order the removal of Kowloon City residents so as to tally with

the spirit of friendliness. As to the original motive of the

Hong Kong Government in ordering the removal of the Kowloon

City residents and the manner in which the Kowloon City district

is to be utilised, I have yet to be informed, and I have the

honour to request that you will kindly transmit the enquiry to

the Hong Kong Government for a reply.

In view of the above, I have the honour to address you

this letter and to request that it may be transmitted to the Hong

Kong Government for attention and the favour of a reply.

I have, etc.,

Philip K.C. Tyau

Special Delegate.
