PERSONAL FOR RICKETTS, HKD FROM GOVERNOR.
YOUR TELNO 2077: DISCUSSIONS WITH THE CHINESE ON PRINCIPAL OFFICIALS.
1. THANK YOU FOR THIS FURTHER EXPLANATION.
2. ONE VERY MINOR POINT OF CLARIFICATION. WHEN, IN MY TELNO 3725 I SAID THAT QUOTE YOU UNQUOTE HAD APPEARED TO BE KEEN ON TAKING THIS SUBJECT FORWARD, I MEANT THIS IN THE GENERAL SENSE, IE THE FCO, RATHER THAN YOU PERSONALLY. A SEMANTIC PROBLEM ARISING FROM SENDING TELEGRAMS IN THE PERSONAL SERIES. SORRY IF THIS WAS NOT CLEAR.
