ARTICLE ON CHINA/HONG KONG

1. I attach a first draft of an article for The Times as requested by the Secretary of State. It is about 960 words long (Mr Mower's target was 900). We need to put a draft in the Secretary of State's box this evening. Grateful for recipients' comments, corrections and proposed amendments (additions compensated by savings), by 14.30 if possible.
