China plans for
Hong Kong dispute i
BEIJING ? China set up a com- 1
miltee Thursday that could be the 1
seed of a "shadow government"
to rival British rule during Hong '
Kong's last years as a British 1
colony.
China hopes lo increase pressure
on Hong Kong Gov. Chris
Patten to drop his proposal to ,
expand popular participation in i
legislative elections before the
colony is handed over in 1997.
Premier Li Peng said it was up 1
to Britain to take the first step to
resolve the dispute.
The committee was approved
by China's legislature, the
National People's Congress, with
2,828 delegates voting in favor
and just 43 voting no or abstain- ,

quick burst of applause.
Li told a news conference that <
British businessmen were still 1
welcome to invest in China and
singled out the British-Danish oil !
conglomerate Shell, which is j
helping build a refinery in China.
