Conversation between HO Yin,

Mr. Paul TSUI, and Mr. F.K. LI

248/6/1

I think that when you were here early in July you heard Paul Tsui give us an account at a Government House meeting of the conversation he had had on a social occasion with HO Yin. You will remember that HO Yin is a very influential business- man who operates both in Hong Kong and Macau and has fairly close contacts with the Communists.

2.

I now enclose a copy of the record which Paul Tsui made of this conversation. (It is not signed by him, but is headed "The Way as HO Yin of Macau Put It".) I enclose a copy of a separate record of the same conversation made by F.K. Li. The third enclosure is a commentary on the interview prepared by Special Branch, with which we agree. I think you will find nothing in these records of special signif- icance of novelty, but they do provide some confirmation of trends already noted.

3.

Q.W. Lee, who is mentioned as the fourth participant, is a well-known Hong Kong banker, now a member of the Legislative Council.

4.

I am sending a copy of this letter with enclosures to Percy Cradock at Peking.

Youn

AM.
