YOUR TELNO 18: YOUR VISIT TO HONG KONG.
HRB 02711
TOP COP Q DIST 7
MY TWO IFTS CONTAIN A DRAFT PROGRAMME FOR YOUR VISIT AND A PRESS RELEASE AND DEFENSIVE Q AND A'S. WE WOULD LIKE TO ISSUE THE PRESS ANNOUNCEMENT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE SO AS TO AVOID SPECULATION THAT
YOUR VISIT IS A RESULT OF SOME CRISIS.
2.
DOUBTLESS THE PRESS WILL WISH FOR A PHOTOCALL ON YOUR ARRIVAL.
WE THINK WE SHOULD LIMIT THEM TO THAT AND THAT YOU SHOULD NOT (NOT) GIVE FURTHER INTERVIEWS. WE SHOULD BE GRATEFUL FOR YOUR VIEWS ON
WHETHER A MEETING WITH UNHCR HERE IS APPROPRIATE, AND ANY OTHER COMMENTS YOU MAY HAVE ON THE DRAFT PROGRAMME.
