HONG KONG PEOPLE IN BRITAIN URGED TO USE FACILITIES
Offered By H.K. Government Office In London
The Hong Kong Commissioner, Mr. A.M.J. Wright, has expressed the
hope that the Hong Kong Chinese community in Britain would make full use of
the facilities offered by the Hong Kong Government Office in London.
He said this at a reception at the Government Office on Tuesday
(February 6) marking the Year of the Ox. About 100 Chinese guests attended.
Mr. Wright said that the new and larger office building was a
reflection of the growth of the work of all sections of the Government Office.
The Commissioner congratulated the community for its successful
New Year festivities in Gerrard Street on Sunday (February 4), which attracted
large crowds of Londoners and achieved wide publicity in the press and on
television.
"The publicity which you gained from the celebrations has been most
favourable and will further enhance the reputation of Hong Kong people in
Britain," Mr. Wright said.
Guests at the reception came from all over Britain
some came from
as far as Scotland.
