061900 Attention Glover.

Following yesterday's spate of bomb report Hong Kong passed a quiet day today.

There was another sign of growing confidence in Hong Kong's economic future with a report that five American insurance companies are setting up business in Colony. The group includes some of the largest insurance companies with nation wide operations in the United States.

Commander in Chief Far East, General Sir Michael Carver now visiting the Colony today made extensive tour of military and police positions along border. He talked with officers and men at various border posts and heard from them how a state of peace and quiet had been maintained on the frontier due to the patient but resolute efforts of soldiers and policemen on the spot.

Sir Michael was accompanied on tour by the Commander British Forces in Hong Kong Lieutenant General Sir John Worsley.
