PERSONAL FOR GOVERNOR FROM PUS

11 1.

You will receive many tributes as you leave Hong Kong. 12 But I wanted to send you and Natasha -a heartfelt thank you on

13 behalf of the Service for all you have done in the last five

14

151

years.

16 2.

It is rare in our way of life to have the satisfaction of 17 seeing that our efforts have contributed in measurable ways to

18 an improvement in the Livelihood of people. But in the case 19 of Hong Kong, it is no exaggeration to say that the success

201 and resilience of the territory today, and the welfare of its

21 people, owe a great deal to your own wisdom and hard work over

22 the years.

24 3.

We have all admired the way in which you have carried the

25 enormous and lonely burdens of the Governorship.

I and many

26 other members of the DS have reason to be grateful to you both

27 for your warm and generous hospitality at Government House, as

28; well as the meticulous organisation of innumerable programmes.

29 It has truly been a Rolls Royce operation.
