1. IN PARA 4 OF YOUR TELNO ES YOU SAID THAT YOU DID NOT INTEND TO GET INTO DETAILED DISCUSSIONS ON TECHNICAL SUBJECTS. HOWEVER IN ADDITION TO MEETING LI QIANG, YOU (AND WE) HAVE NOW REQUESTED TALKS WITH APPROPRIATE PEOPLE ABOUT TOURISM, AND RAIL AND SEA COMMUNICATIONS, YOU HAVE ALSO BEEN PROVIDED WITH QUITE DETAILED BRIEFING ON LAND PURCHASE, TRADE AND TRANSPORT/COMMUNICATIONS QUES- TIONS.
2. I HOPE I AM RIGHT IN THINKING THAT, NOTWITHSTANDING THIS,
YOU STILL DO NOT ENVISAGE GETTING INVOLVED IN DISCUSSION ON THESE TOPICS IN MORE THAN A GENERAL SENSE. WE CAN PROVIDE A NOTE-TAKER
BUT NO-ONE REALLY FAMILIAR WITH DETAIL,
