Government of Donghai for me to visit China in late July leading a

five-member delegation of our city. I am most pleased to accept the

invitation.

I deeply appreciate the generous offer by your city to meet the expenses

make reciprocal arrangements for our Chinese guests when you visit us

At present, China has become the focus of attenton for the Australian

economic circles.

At least five of our prominent entrepreneurs here have

expressed their interest injoining me on the trip.

I would be most grateful

if you would be kind enough to allow an eight-member delegation of

our Chamber of Commerce to travel with me during the visit.

Ofcourse,

they will be responsible for all their expenses in China.

I am planning to make the visit to China from 21 through t0 27 in July.

（五）中方要求修改外宾访访华日程

亲爱的里格先生：

.

我奉中澳友好协会会长苏勤先生的指示给您写信，答复您十月

二日来信提及的有关澳大利亚前总督理查德

·

< br>考恩先生阁下访华日

程问题。

贵方所提日程中惟一难以安排的，是你们想在深圳过夜的提

议。如果要这么做，那么你们到达深圳的第二天早上四时就得出

发，这样才能赶得上广州的日程安排。因此，我们建议你们在访问

深圳后在广州过夜。

我们正在为考恩先生阁下准备一份日程修订稿，不久将送交你

们考虑核定。

您诚挚的

会长秘书
