1. I attach a copy of a letter I have just received from Michael

Yahuda about a conversation he had in Hong Kong with the Xinhua

correspondent Szeto Kung about the future of Hong Kong. I doubt

if any of what was said is new to you; but I thought you would

like this record of what is being said to one of the experts in

the field. I was particularly struck by point 9: not entirely

accurate but surprising it should have been mentioned even in

this form.

2.

Michael Yahuda is a specialist on Chinese foreign policy.

He works normally at the LSC (where, amongst other things, he

looked after some of the first Chinese graduate students to go

there). He is at present on a 2 year stint at Adelaide University.
