Mr. Donald

પ્રેમ,

Thank you for your letter of 9th June and for your frank explanation of Hong Kong's position. I have shown your letter to my Unofficial colleagues and we will of course respect its confidentiality.

The Governor had earlier briefed us on the situation and we sincerely appreciate the public assurances which have been given by Her Majesty's Government. Time will tell whether our fears are groundless.

You may be assured that we will continue to do whatever we can to maintain local confidence in the relationship and commitment of Her Majesty's Government to the people of Hong Kong.

Yours pincerely,

SYC/1w

(S.Y. Chung)

Senior Unofficial Member of Executive Council for and on behalf of the Unofficial Members of the Executive
