We have also now finalised the paper for
submitting your petition to EXCO./We shall of course inform you of the outcome of the EXCO decision once itis available/but I am afraid there is no possibility of getting it on the agenda before 31 May "
So much for details and promises,/but take from that what comfort you will. It is clear that there is still much to be done both in Hong Kong/and here/to ensure that the HKG and HMG agree to protect our pensions as we wish/We have made our position very clear through OSPA and by petition to EXCO// Obviously we must continue to battle.//
We seem to be engaged in a war of attrition,/but need I remind you that in such wars only those who refuse to surrender succeed? The Chairman has reminded us of the frustration of the six year fight for a solution, and that there are only six years to go.//Some of us are getting close to our actuarial life dear expectancy for pensions,/but let that not deter us
As T.S.Eliot should have said that's not the way our world will end./Let's go out with a bang not a whimper !
