Propaganda about Hong Kong

I enclose a copy of a letter which was forwarded to the Consul-General in Rotterdam by its recipients, a Dutch firm, It would appear to be sent out by some communist organisation in an attempt to undermine confidence, though the suggestion at the end that business should henceforward be done by letters of credit reads a bit oddly in the light of the rest of the letter. The Dutch firm who received it had not had any dealings with the writers nor knew of them.

I am sending copies of this letter and enclosure to Economic Relations Department, Foreign Office; the Hong Kong Commercial Office in Brussels; the British Trade Commission in Hong Kong and Commercial Relations Department in the Board of Trade.
