3: 'To do anything in China takes time,' observes 90-year-old millionaire industrialist Lord Kadoorie.
'You need patience, you need tact. Face has to be provided for both sides....'
Alan Whicker looks into the lives of the people of free-market Hong Kong, soon to be repossessed by China. Jack Edwards, ex-POW, stands up for the rights of Hong Kong's war widows whose husbands 'died fighting for the British flag'. Lord

Kadoorie's son Michael shows off his new hotel, but to Whicker 'it's a wee bit short on oriental charm'.
