The Royal Hong Kong Police Force has made great strides in the past few years
and I am sure that it is the wish of the overwhelming number of its membership
to take the one step more which will completely re-establish its standing in the
eyes of the community. Meanwhile the community can do much to help the Commissioner
and his officers and men in their task by showing confidence in a Force which,
a whole, is surely deserving of much more praise than criticism.

and then four years included
I should like to congratulate, you Sir, on such a notably successful spell as
Chairman of the Chamber. It has been a term of constant challenge in Hong Kong,
and under your Chairmanship the Chamber has always been ready to encourage, to
caution, or to give a hand as the situation required
times when it was not easy for all to keep their heads. I am well aware of the
Chamber's many-sided role, and admire the work it does for Hong Kong as well as of
its members and its innumerable correspondents.
I am grateful too for its cooperation with the Government, and I do not forget
that a hundred years ago the roles might have been reversed.
I thank you and the Committee and Members for your hospitality and ask all to
rise and drink a toast to the Hong Kong General Chamber of Commerce and the prosperity
of its members in 1978.
