I am the correspondent in UK of Business Times, Singapore. They are very anxious to get your comments on the diplomatic moves said to be planned over Lee Kuan Yew's controversial remarks about Hong Kong.

The Hong Kong Economic Journal stands by its story, and it may well be re-printed in the S-E Asia press with or without confirmation

I believe it has already been on the radio.

BT is understandably concerned to get the story absolutely correct, and they have asked me to chase this up urgently.

Obliged if you would telephone me here.

Thank you,

Neulle Stay
