Our London staff and directors of Sing Tao would like to offer you our best wishes on the eve of this happy occasion.

As the first daily newspaper to use satellite facsimile transmission world- wide, and the most popular Chinese newspaper in Europe and the U.K., we believe we have succeeded in helping our readers to understand the mechanism of British life and institutions while still retaining their own cultural identity.

Through the Sino-British Agreement and work of the Liaison Group, the Foreign Office has taken the centre stage in this historical transition period of Hong Kong, and your goodself in particular.

We would be greatly honoured if you could favour us with a few encouraging words on this special occasion, together with a recent photograph. This will be carried in our 50th Anniversary Magazine in Hong Kong, our newspapers worldwide (7 editions altogether), as well as on our video transmission on our 50th Anniversary celebration in Hong Kong.

We look forward to your kind reply before the 3rd June 1988. anticipation.

Yours sincerely

Thank you in

Lorna Wong
