INFO ROUTINE F C O
BOYD'S LETTER OF 18 MARCH TO THOMSON : VISIT TO HONG KONG
BY MADAM WU WENYING, MINISTER FOR THE TEXTILE INDUSTRY.
1. NCNA HAVE NOW TOLD US (HAVING APPARENTLY SAT ON THE INFORMATION
FOR ABOUT A WEEK) THAT MADAM WU HAD ASKED NONA TO REPLY THAT SHE WAS GRATEFUL FOR THE OFFER OF A PROGRAMME, BUT THAT SHE WAS NOT
SURE EXACTLY WHEN SHE WOULD BE MAKING HER PROPOSED TRIP. IT WAS THEREFORE IMPOSSIBLE TO MAKE ANY FIRM ARRANGEMENTS AT THE MOMENT.
2. UNLESS THE LETTER TO MADAM WU, OF WHICH A DRAFT WAS ENCLOSED WITH BOYD'S LETTER UNDER REFERENCE, HAS ALREADY ISSUED, WE SUGGEST NO FURTHER ACTION. IF IT HAS, YOU MAY CARE TO EXPLAIN TO MADAM WU'S OFFICE THAT WE HAVE ONLY JUST RECEIVED MADAM WU'S MESSAGE VIA NCNA, AND THAT WE SHALL BE HAPPY TO REVIVE THE IDEA IF AND WHEN HER PLANS
FIRM UP.
