It is funny to think that the Foreign Office should hve made such a rash decision despite the fact that Hong Kong is the most valuable and profitable colony left for Britain today. It is certainly unwise to save the life of a convicted murderer at the expense of losing the good-will of all the people of Hong Kong.

People will gradually forget this incident, but if similar cases happen again, how would the people of Hong Kong feel about Britain?
