POSSIBLE VISIT BY THE VICE PRESIDENT OF THE CHINESE ACADEMY OF
SOCIAL SCIENCES TO HONG KONG
1. HUAN XIANG, VICE PRESIDENT OF THE CASS AND PRESIDENT OF THE
CHINESE INTERNATIONAL LAW SOCIETY, HAS BEEN INVITED TO VISIT
AUSTRALIA BY THE AUSTRALIAN DEPARTMENT OF EXTERNAL AFFAIRS. HE
WILL BE LEAVING CHINA ON 26 APRIL, AND RETURNING HERE ON 17 MAY.
I UNDERSTAND THAT HE EXPECTS TO TRAVEL IN EACH DIRECTION VIA HONG
KONG.
2. AS YOU KNOW HUAN XIANG WAS CHINESE CHARGE D'AFFAIRES IN LONDON FROM 1954-62. HE SPEAKS EXCELLENT ENGLISH, IS WELL DISPOSED TO US,
AND HAS DENG XIAOPING'S EAR. IF YOU AND DONALD AGREE, I SHOULD
LIKE TO INVITE HUAN TO SPEND TWO OR THREE DAYS IN HONG KONG ON
HIS RETURN JOURNEY. THE MAIN PURPOSE OF SUCH A VISIT WOULD BE TO
TAKE THE OPPORTUNITY IT PRESENTS TO GIVE THIS INFLUENTIAL CHINESE
PERSONALITY FIRST-HAND EXPERIENCE OF SOME ASPECTS OF HONG KONG
PARA 6 OF MY TELNO 209 TO FCO IS RELEVANT). HUAN MIGHT ALSO BE
GIVEN AN OPPORTUNITY TO MEET SOME ACADEMIC PERSONALITIES IN HONG
KONG., THIS COULD PERHAPS PROVIDE AN AVTWABLE REASON FOR HIS STOP
IN HONG KONG, SHOULD ANY PRESS QUESTIONS ARISE.
