MY CREDA 23: DONALD LIAO'S VISIT
MOST GRATEFUL FOR YOUR BTC 4 AND MUCH REGRET THIS LAST MINUTE HITCH. WHEN I SPOKE TO DONALD THIS AFTERNOON HE SAID THAT HE THOUGHT THERE WAS STILL A POSSIBILITY THAT THE HOUSING AUTHORITY WOULD FINANCE HIS JOURNEY SINCE HE WOULD BE ENGAGED ON THE DISCUSSION OF IMPORTANT NEW CONTRACTING METHODS WITH LEADING BRITISH CIVIL ENGINEERING COMPANIES.
2. WE AGREED THAT IT WOULD BE WISE TO INVESTIGE THE AVAILABILITY OF FUNDS FROM THE UK END AS A FALL-BACK POSITION,
POSSIBLE COMPROMISE WOULD BE AGREEMENT FOR HONG KONG HOUSING
AUTHORITY TO MEET AIR FARES WHILE DOT OR EGCI PICKED UP
THE HOTEL ACCOMMODATION AND LIVING EXPENSES.
