ONCE HAN'S VISA IS ISSUED, HIS SISTER WILL INFORM US OF HIS TRAVEL DETAILS. WE WILL LET HONG KONG KNOW AS SOON AS WE ARE CLEAR OF HIS PLANS SO THAT THEY CAN MAKE THE NECESSARY
ARRANGEMENTS TO MEET HIM AT THE BORDER.
4. HONG KONG MAY NOT BE AWARE THAT THERE IS THE ADDED COMPLICATION OF HAN'S WIFE, WHO IS EXPECTING THEIR CHILD IN OCTOBER. THE QUESTION IS WHETHER SHE SHOULD ACCOMPANY HIM TO HONG KONG OR WAIT HERE UNTIL HE IS FIT TO TRAVEL TO THE US AND JOIN HIM THERE. ASIAWATCH, WHO WILL BE HAN'S SPONSOR IN HONG KONG, IS NOT KEEN FOR HER TO REMAIN HERE ONCE HAN HAS LEFT THE COUNTRY.
5. GRATEFUL FOR AUTHORITY FROM HONG KONG TO ISSUE HAN WITH A TRANSIT VISA. SHOULD WE DO THE SAME FOR HAN'S WIFE ?
