INDEX.

Полю

MR DAVID FITZWILLIAM-LAY, CHAIRMAN OF GT MANAGEMENT

(ASIA) LIMITED HAS WRITTEN TO INVITE MR RENTON TO LUNCH WITH THE

COMPANY'S DIRECTORS, INCLUDING MR JOHN GREENWOOD, DURING HIS

VISIT TO HONG KONG. OBVIOUSLY THE PROGRAMME WILL NOT ALLOW MR

RENTON TO ACCEPT BUT HE WOULD IF POSSIBLE LIKE TO MEET BOTH

FITZWILLIAM-LAY AND GREENWOOD DURING HIS VISIT. WOULD IT BE

POSSIBLE FOR THEM TO BE INCLUDED IN YOUR RECEPTION ON 28 OCTOBER?

GRATEFUL FOR EARLY ADVICE, TO ENABLE MR RENTON TO REPLY TO

FITZWILLIAM-LAY'S INVITATION.
