VISIT OF PRIME MINISTER MULRONEY TO HONG KONG : 22-26 MAY
1. YOU MIGHT FIND IT USEFUL TO KNOW THAT WE HAVE BEEN TOLD BY THE COMMISSIONER FOR CANADA HERE THAT THE PRIME MINISTER OF CANADA AND MRS MULRONEY WILL BE VISITING HONG KONG FROM 22-26 MAY, ROUTE FOR TOKYO.
EN
2. WE ARE IN CLOSE TOUCH WITH THE COMMISSIONER ABOUT THE PRIME MINISTER'S PROGRAMME WHILE HE IS IN HONG KONG. IT SEEMS THAT THE CANADIANS ENVISAGE ABOUT ONE AND A HALF DAYS, ON 24-25 MAY. I WILL BE GIVING HIM DINNER AT GOVERNMENT HOUSE, AND WILL OFFICIATE WITH HIM AT A BRIEF PUBLIC CEREMONY TO ANNOUNCE FESTIVAL CANADA, WHICH WILL TAKE PLACE IN JUNE. I WILL ALSO HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY FOR A MEETING WITH THE PRIME MINISTER.
3. AS YOU KNOW, I MET THE PRIME MINISTER PREVIOUSLY DURING MY VISIT TO OTTAWA LAST YEAR. HOWEVER, IT WOULD BE VERY HELPFUL TO HAVE YOUR ADVICE NEARER THE TIME ON ANY PARTICULAR ISSUES RELATING TO HONG KONG THAT MAY BE ON HIS MIND.
