In the meantime, under the new frequency allocation

plan a number of interim improvements will be possible and

I have directed that these be put in hand. By using modest

standby facilities, R.T.H.K. will be able to duplicate its

Radio 1 service in F.M. to cover what broadcasters call the

"Golden Bowl", that is the north of Hong Kong Island, Kowloon

and Tsuen Wan, as well as Sha Tin, Tuen Mun, and the

North East New Territories. The existing R.T.H.K. Radio 2

F.M. service will be similarly extended and some improvement

will be provided in F.M. for Radio 3 listeners living on the

southern side of Hong Kong Island. These improvements

will be made by the coming Summer. Discussions are underway

with Commercial Radio aimed at facilitating similar interim

improvements to their services

improvements which Commercial

Radio are I know most anxious to make.
