Thank you for your letter of 25 May about funding for the Hong Kong Archive Project in Oxford.

I was not able to mention this to Dr Ho in Hong Kong,

as you suggested. I did however discuss it with the

Governor, and showed him your letter.

Having read your description of the project I am sure that it is a most interesting and worthwhile one. I very

much hope that the necessary financial backing will be

forthcoming. It must of course be for Dr Ho to decide whether or not to support this project. I naturally hope that he does. In any event I am sure you will be pursuing

this matter with Dr Ho direct. I believe that this would

be the right way to take matters forward.

I wish you

every success.
