PERSONAL FOR RICKETTS, HKD FROM GOVERNOR

DAVOS CONFERENCE 1992

1. DURING MY VISIT TO LONDON LAST WEEK, LORD YOUNG TOLD ME THAT THE PRINCE OF WALES HAD AGREED TO ATTEND THE DAVOS CONFERENCE IN 1992, AND THAT THE PRIME MINISTER WAS ALSO CONSIDERING GOING. IF THIS IS THE CASE, I WOULD NEED TO CONSIDER WHETHER I SHOULD ATTEND MYSELF.

2. WE HAVE THE DAVOS PEOPLE IN HONG KONG AT THE END OF THIS WEEK, SO I WILL HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO SOUND THEM OUT THEN. BUT IT WOULD BE USEFUL TO KNOW DESKBY 24003OZ IF YOU HAVE ANY REASON TO BELIEVE THAT EITHER THE PRINCE OF WALES OR THE PRIME MINISTER WILL ATTEND THE CONFERENCE.
