MY TELNO 835: FUTURE OF HONG KONG: VISIT BY UNOFFICIALS TO LONDON.

THE UNOFFICIALS AGREE THAT GIVEN THE SHORTNESS OF THE VISIT AND THE NEED TO CONCENTRATE ON THE FUTURE IT WOULD BE BEST NOT TO ARRANGE SEPARATE MEETINGS WITH THE ANGLO-HONG KONG PARLIAMENTARY GROUP, THE HONG KONG ASSOCIATION, ETC. INSTEAD I HOPE IT WILL BE POSSIBLE TO ARRANGE A DRINKS PARTY ON THE EVENING OF TUESDAY 5 JULY TO COVER THESE AND OTHERS WHO IT WOULD BE USEFUL FOR THE UNOFFICIALS TO MEET. I SHALL BE TELEGRAPHING SEPARATELY ABOUT THIS.
