On Hong Kong

Kong Premier Sun reiterated the standard KMT line that Hong Kong is part of the Republic of China and that they will recognise the agreement reached between Britain and the Communists. It is ours, he said, and Britain must negotiate with us. He added that anyway Taiwan held the original lease documents. Apart from this general Tine, there appears to be no worked out policy on Hong Kong in the KMT. When asked whether, if it came

came to it, Taiwan would be prepared to accept one or two million refugees from Hong Kong Premier Sun said yes, but a senior KMT official said no.
