Dear th. Blaker,

It was most kind of you to see the group organised by Mr Crum Ewing yesterday and I hope some of the comments were helpful.

Although I did not raise it yesterday as I thought it inappropriate, I am writing to mention that our Chairman, Michael Sandberg, would welcome the chance of having a brief talk with you during your stay in Hong Kong if this were possible.

Yes, if Wis

Fomble.

I learned from your secretary this morning that your visit is being arranged by Government House in Hong Kong, and so I am suggesting that Michael Sandberg's office make contact through those channels in advance of your arrival.

In case your private secretary wishes to make any direct contact with Sandberg, his direct line at the office is - 5 230239.

I hope that you have an interesting and successful trip.

Yours sincerely
