EL 57316 13th November, 1968
Excellency,
I have the honour to refer to the Agreement on Technical Cooper-
ation between the Republic of China and the Kingdom of Lesotho
signed today at Maseru. It is the understanding of my Government
that in connection with this Agreement the following points have
been mutually agreed to:
(1) With respect to the disposal of agricultural products under
Article 6, it should be understood that the Chinese Agricul-
tural Mission (hereafter referred to as the Mission) has fu-
ll right to reserve all of or a part of the agricultural pr-
oducts for sale to defray the expenses enumerated in paragr-
aphs (2) and (4) hereunder.
(2) With respect to the provision of furnished quarters under A-
rticle 7, it should be understood that the Lesotho Governme-
nt shall make available to the Mission two or three furnish-
ed houses on a rental basis, at a monthly rent not more than
that when rented to Lesotho Government officials, with water
, electricity and telephone fees borne by the Mission; or t-
he Mission shall constructits own quarters, purchase the ne-
cessary furniture, and bear water, electricity and telephone
fees; or the Mission shall rent the houses from the Lesotho
Government first and then construct its own quarters at a l-
ater date. In any case, all of the expenses incurred shall
be reimbursed to the Mission from the proceeds resulting fr-
om the sale of the agricultural products raised by the Miss-
ion. In the event that such proceeds realized cover only a
portion of the expenses, the Mission shall be solely respon-
sible for the remaining portion.
(3) With respect to the undertakings of land preparation under
Article 8, it should be understood that the Lesotho Governm-
ent shall provide without cost to the Mission the necessary
tools and machinery for reclaiming the land. It is further
understood that if during the Agreement period any casual l-
abours are required, workers shall be recruited by the Leso-
tho Government and the Mission shall pay the wages according
to the local wage scale.
(4) With respect to the provision of a motor vehicle under Arti-
cle 9, it should be understood that the Lesotho Government
shall make available a motor vehicle with driver to the Mis-
sion on arental basis, at a monthly rent not more than that
when rented to Lesotho governmental agencies; or the Mission
shall purchase its own vehicle, hire a driver, and bear the
costs of its insurance, maintenance, repair, and fuel; or t-
he Mission shall rent the vehicle from the Lesotho Governme-
nt first and then purchase its own vehicle at a later date.
In any case, all of the expenses incurred shall be reimburs-
ed to the Mission from the proceeds resulting from the sale
of the agricultural products raised by the Mission in Lesot-
ho. In the event that the proceeds realized only cover a po-
rtion of the expenses, the Mission shall be solely responsi-
ble for the remaining portion.
I have the honour to propose that this Note and Your Excellency'
s reply confirming the foregoing understanding shall constitute
a supplement to the Agreement signed today to enter into force
on the date of Your Excellency's Note in reply.
Please accept, Excellency, the renewed assurances of my highest
consideration.
