The

he Ministry of Foreign Affairs have repeatedly

raised objections to this project, but from the fact that

the Government of Hong Kong is still persisting in its

intention, it would seem that due consideration has not

been given to treaty provisions, to friendly international feeling, and to the people's liberty of residence.

Ministry have accordingly the honour to invite the attention

of His Majesty's Embassy to the matter and to express the

hope that the latter will, in order to strengthen good relations (between the two countries), approach the Govern- ment of Hong Kong without delay and urge upon it the absolute necessity of radically cancelling or of suspending

the original decision for removal.

The favour of a reply is requested.

STAMP OF MINISTRY OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS.
