YOUR TELNO 550: PROPOSED VISIT TO HONG KONG BY MR GOODLAD

1. YOUR POINT ABOUT THE CHINA DIMENSION IS OF COURSE VERY WELL TAKEN. WE WOULD LIKE TO REPLY SUBSTANTIVELY IN A DAY OR TWO ABOUT THE POSSIBILITY THAT YOU SHOULD VISIT HONG

KONG DURING MR GOODLAD'S PROPOSED VISIT. IN PRINCIPLE THIS LOOKS A GOOD IDEA. GRATEFUL IF YOU COULD PENCIL IT IN SUBJECT TO CONFIRMATION.

2. SO FAR AS EXCHANGES AT MINISTER OF STATE LEVEL ARE CONCERNED, WE REGARD THE PROPOSED VISIT OF JIANG ENZHU TO LONDON AS THE NEXT IN

THE SERIES. UNLESS THERE ARE COMPELLING REASONS TO RECONSIDER

WE ARE LIKELY TO WISH TO STICK TO THIS PLAN.
