YOUR TELNO 73: DETAINED HONG KONG CITIZEN.

1. CAN YOU CONFIRM THAT CHONG IS A HONG KONG RESIDENT? TUR GIVES THE IMPRESSION THAT HE IS A RESIDENT OF THE U.S. IF HE HOLDS A CERTIFICATE OF IDENTITY, THIS MEANS THAT HE HAS NOT NATURALISED AS A BRITISH NATIONAL AND THEREFORE IS A CHINESE CITIZEN. WE ARE NOT SURE THAT IT SEEMS ENTIRELY APPROPRIATE THAT WE SHOULD RAISE THE CASE OF A CHINESE CITIZEN RESIDENT IN AMERICA. IF HOWEVER CHONG IS A HONG KONG RESIDENT WE WOULD DO SO, BUT PROBABLY WITH NCNA IN HONG KONG.
