I can now confirm that the Prime Minister is content with the proposed programme for Hong Kong (John Holmes' letter of 25 June refers

attached to 159
(a) As you know the Prime Minister attaches importance to seeing Vice Chairman Deng Xiaoping twice during her visit.
(b)
흐흐
(c)
She will be glad to visit the Peking Cancer Research Institute.
She will be happy to visit (but not to open) the British Council's Book Exhibition.
(d) She would like to visit the Summer Palace in Peking
and the Peking Conservatoire and also to see some Chinese painting in Peking.
(e) She would like to attend a cultural performance in
Shanghai.
On the other hand the Prime Minister does not wish to lay a wreath in Tiananmen Square. She also hopes that she will not have to visit the same rural commune as she did on the occasion of her last visit (your files will doubtless show which that commune was).
