Thank you for your letter of 11 February to
Geoffrey Howe about your recent visit to Peking and
Hong Kong. I am replying, as the FCO Minister with
direct responsibility for the Far East.
I am delighted but not surprised that the
conference in China proved such a success.
Contacts
between Britain and China in the field of care for
the disabled are developing rapidly. We welcome this,
. both for the scope which clearly exists for mutually
beneficial cooperation and for the contribution this
makes to the overall expansion of bilateral exchanges.
One flourishing example is the contact between the
Sino-British Group on Rehabilitation, of which
Sir Geoffrey Howe is a patron, and The China Welfare
Fund for the Handicapped.
I am glad we and the Embassy in Peking were able
to be of assistance to you. I shall certainly pass on
your kind words to Sir Richard Evans. And I should
be pleased to meet you to discuss how to build on your
/visit
