UNDERSTAND,
IN ANY DEPTH.
BEEN CONSIDERED BY THE COMMISSION AS YET
6. MY PURPOSE TODAY IS RESPECTFULLY TO DRAW THE
ATTENTION OF YOUR GOVERNMENT AT THE APPROPRIATE POLICY-
MAKING LEVEL TO THE INEQUITIES OF THE PRESENT SITUATION
AND TO SEEK YOUR COOPERATION IN THE EVENTUAL, AND EARLY,
REMOVAL OF THESE INEQUITIES.
IN RESPECT OF FOOTWEAR
SUCH COOPERATION AMOUNTS TO NO MORE THAN ACCEPTANCE OF
THE COMMISSION'S RECENT PROPOSALS IN THIS SECTOR..
IN
THIS TASK AND PURPOSE THE GOVERNMENT OF HONG KONG IS FULLY
SUPPORTED BY THAT OF HER MAJESTY IN THE UNITED KINGDOM.
२.
I,
THEREFORE, WISH TODAY TO ENLARGE A LITTLE IN
RESPECT OF THE DISTRESS IN WHICH THE HONG KONG FOOTWEAR
INDUSTRY NOW FINDS ITSELF AND TO HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO
EXTEND AND EXPAND ON OUR EARLIER MEMORANDUM WITH REFERENCE
TO OUR JOINT HOPE THAT THE REMOVAL OF SIMILAR DISCRIMINATION
IN THE TEXTILES SECTOR WILL SOON FOLLOW.
8.
BEFORE GOING BRIEFLY INTO THE TRADING BACKGROUND
I WOULD WISH TO DRAW YOUR ATTENTION TO ONE RATHER UNUSUAL
ASPECT OF THIS.
