Would appreciate any help you can give in emphasising to

the Chinese that their words and actions can have great influence on international business opinion of Hong Kong's status as a regional and international economic centre.

Important however to avoid triggering Chinese

sensitivities about international interference in Hong Kong,

should not appear to be trying to "internationalise"

Hong Kong.

-

Interested to hear your views on this.

-

Senator Evans made a statement in Hong Kong in April on

the flexibility of the Australian Immigration Rules and how

they could help Hong Kong residents. Very welcome.

- Assume any future Liberal Government in Australia would be

as accommodating perhaps even consider a specific scheme for Hong Kong residents under the Business Migrants

programme?

Believe you met the Governor of Hong Kong during his

recent visit to Australia.
