THREE WEEKLY (C) IN ADDITION TO THREE DAILY SERVICES FROM CANTON,
FROM PEKING AND THREE WEEKLY FROM HANGZHOU, CAAC ARE OPERATING NUMEROUS CHARTER FLIGHTS INTO H.K.
8. ALL IN ALL, WE STILL CONSIDER THAT THE CBJECTIVE SHOULD BE TO ESTABLISH SERVICES BY HKA ON THE HKA/SHANGHAI ROUTE AND FOR THIS REASON OUR AIM AT THE NEXT ROUND OF TALKS SHOULD BE TO FIND A MEANS BY WHICH A RECONSTITUTED HKA CAN FLY TEMPORARILY ON THAT ROUTE. AND THAT WE SHOULD LEAVE FOR THE NEXT STAGE CONSIDERATION OF AN ARRANGEMENT WHEREBY CPA AS SUCH SHOULD FLY TO SHANGHAI IN RETURN FOR CAAC RIGHTS TO SOME DESTINATION BEYOND HK. WE AGREE THAT D.O.T. MUST BE PREPARED TO STRIKE A BARGAIN ON THE LATTER EVEN THOUGH WE CANNOT REASONABLY EXPECT THEM TO INCLUDE HK TO LONDON RIGHTS.
9. THIS TELEGRAM HAS BEEN SEEN AND AGREED BY THE CHIEF SECRETARY.
