As for Hong Kong Telegram No.82
Your telegram No. 82.
Macao.
Arrangements outlined in your paragraph 1 for
reception of Portuguese military personnel are agreed.
2.
We do not want to inform Portuguese about
arrangements at this stage. When military personnel start
aswangement's
to arrive they should be explained to Portuguese who
should be informed that, as in the case of civilian
Fortuguese nationals, transit facilities only can be
provided. Portuguese should be pressed to arrange very
early onward movement of military personnel.
3. We should try to avoid any question of our forces
having to disarm Portuguese forces. Best arrangement would
probably be to ask Portuguese to collect and hand over all
arms for safe storage while troops are in Hong Kong; these
would be returned to them on their departure.
