1987 TRAVEL PLANS

Сс

1. IT WOULD BE HELPFUL TO ME TO HAVE YOUR COMMENTS ON MY

PROVISIONAL TRAVEL PLANS FOR 1987. THIS WILL OF COURSE BE AN

IMPORTANT YEAR IN POLITICAL TERMS, AND I PROPOSE THEREFORE TO CONCENTRATE MAINLY ON VISITS TO LONDON AND PEKING. I WOULD LIKE TO MAINTAIN MY PRESENT SCHEDULE OF VISITING LONDON EVERY 3 MONTHS OR SO, AND AS I HAVE INDICATED SEPARATELY (MY TELNO 3502) WOULD LIKE TO VISIT PEKING AT ABOUT THE SAME FREQUENCY. I WOULD USE OPPORTUNITY OF THESE TRIPS TO VISIT ALSO OTHER CHINESE PROVINCES E.G. FUJIAN AND GUANGDONG.

2. ON THIS BASIS, I HAVE PROVISIONALLY RESERVED DATES IN MY DIARY AS FOLLOWS:

A) TO LONDON IN THE WEEK OF 19-24 JANUARY.

B) TO PEKING IN MID-MARCH.
