'PEN-FRIEND' POSTCARDS ON WAY TO EXPO *****

MORE THAN 300 000 PERSONALISED MESSAGES IN THE FORM OF HAND- DRAWN +PEN-FRIEND+ POSTCARDS ARE ON THEIR WAY TO THE HONG KONG PAVILION AT EXPO '86 IN VANCOUVER, CANADA.

AND MORE AIR SHIPMENTS WILL BE MADE THROUGHOUT THE EXPOSITION PERIOD BETWEEN MAY 2 AND OCTOBER 13.

A SPOKESMAN FOR THIS NOVEL AND MAMMOTH COMMUNICATIONS EXERCISE, WITH THE THEME +HONG KONG IN TOUCH WITH THE WORLD+, DESCRIBED IT AS A VERY GRATIFYING START.

+ IT REINFORCES OUR CONFIDENCE IN ACHIEVING OUR OBJECTIVE OF SUPPLYING MOST VISITORS TO OUR PAVILION WITH A PERSONAL TOKEN OF FRIENDSHIP FROM SOMEONE IN HONG KONG, HE ADDED.

URGING CONTINUED SUPPORT FROM SCHOOLS AND THE REST OF THE PUBLIC, THE SPOKESMAN SAID THE DRIVE TO PROMOTE THIS PROJECT WAS STILL IN PROGRESS AND REITERATED THAT THE POSTCARDS WOULD BE AVAILABLE UNTIL THE FINAL DAYS OF EXPO '86.

THE CARDS CAN BE COLLECTED FROM THREE POINTS - AT THE MAIN ENTRANCE TO THE GOVERNMENT INFORMATION SERVICES HEADQUARTERS IN BEACONSFIELD HOUSE. QUEEN'S ROAD AT ITS CO-ORDINATING CENTRE ON THE FIRST FLOOR, WEST WING AND AT THE GOVERNMENT PUBLICATIONS CENTRE IN THE GENERAL POST OFFICE BUILDING IN CONNAUGHT PLACE.

A FOURTH DISTRIBUTION CENTRE WILL BE TEMPORARILY SET UP AT THE LANDMARK BETWEEN MAY 1 AND 4 WHEN SOME OF THE BEST CARDS SUBMITTED TO DATE WILL BE PUT ON DISPLAY AT ITS WEST BRIDGE.
