YOUR TELNO 11: HONG KONG CITIZENS IN PANAMA
WE HAVE SPOKEN TO THE ACTING DIRECTOR OF IMMIGRATION, WHO IS NOT AWARE OF ANY STRANDED HONG KONG CITIZENS IN PANAMA: NOR ARE WE.

IF THERE IS A PROBLEM, IT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE THOSE PRC NATIONALS WHO CAME TO PANAMA (THROUGH HONG KONG), AND OBTAINED PANAMANIAN PASSPORTS ''UNDER THE COUNTER'' FROM THE PREVIOUS REGIME (OUR TELNO VISA 27 OF 25.10.89 ET SEQ). APPARENTLY, IN SOME CASES, THE ''NEW'' PASSPORTS WERE NOT PROCESSED PROPERLY AND ARE THEREFORE NOT VALID. IF, AS IS RUMOURED, THE HOLDER HAD ALSO DESTROYED HIS OLD PRC PASSPORT, HE WOULD NOW BE WITHOUT A VALID TRAVEL DOCUMENT.
