 and I would also go. We have been talking with Nick O'Day to 
coordinate with our people in the region to advantage their goals and from 
the correspondence I just forwarded to you, I see our people in Japan 
supporting whatever we can do using Carla Hills as the principal messenger on 
energy services at the WTO.

While in Paris, Ken Lay met with Rachel Thomson and me to get updated on the 
energy services campaign. I have asked Rachel to put togeher a package on 
helping us within the WTO and in educating certain strategic delegations that 
have persuasive powers withing their regional blocks. She has made that 
proposal. Ken believes that several ESC companies such as GE and Halliburton 
should be able to put up funds to handle that part of the cost and is willing 
to call Messrs Welch and Chaney directly if we go forward.

Based on what I have heard over the last few months I believe we now need a 
paper supporting energy services from a distinguised expert from a developing 
nation essentially supporting the Rachel Thomson material.

What I am suggesting is that if the company continues to feel that pursuing 
an energy services liberalization at the WTO is positive and accelerates our 
own efforts to get nations to agree to liberalize sooner rather than wait for 
a two or three year WTO process then I think that the items mentioned in this 
memo should be approved and go forward. If the company disagrees then after 
this July meeting of the WTO Committee on Specific Committements and after 
the meeting in Japan near the end of July should be the time for us to plan 
the "exit" strategy. Whether or not Halliburton or GE would pick up the 
campaign is unknown to me. I do plan to get together  with the ESC Executive 
Committee early next week to tell them in detail about the new proposal by 
Rachel Thomson.

I would like your authority to move forward on the several items I have 
suggested including funding for a developing nation paper, the trip to Japan 
later this month and at least an initial funding (estimated at about $30,000 
for APCO (Rachel's employer) to get the ball rolling on a longer range 
strategy through October). I would prefer to have any
and I would also go. We have been talking with Nick O'Day to 
 coordinate with our citizenry in the area to advantage their goals and from 
 the correspondence I barely forward to you, I see our people in Japan 
 supporting whatever we can suffice using Carla Hills as the principal messenger on 
 department of energy service at the WTO. 

 While in Paris, Ken Lay met with Rachel Thomson and me to get update on the 
 energy services political campaign. I have asked Rachel to put togeher a software on 
 helping us within the WTO and in educate sealed strategic delegations that 
 have persuasive powers withing their regional block. She has made that 
 proposal. Ken believe that several ESC company such as GE and Halliburton 
 should be able to put up funds to handle that part of the cost and is uncoerced 
 to call Messrs Welch and Chaney directly if we go forward. 

 Based on what I have heard over the final few months I believe we now need a 
 paper supporting energy services from a distinguised expert from a developing 
 nation basically support the Rachel Thomson material. 

 What I am suggest is that if the ship's company continues to feel that pursuing 
 an energy services liberalization at the WTO is positive and accelerates our 
 own feat to get nations to agree to liberalize sooner rather than wait for 
 a two or three class WTO process then I think that the items mentioned in this 
 memo should be approved and go forward. If the caller disagrees then after 
 this July meeting of the WTO Committee on Specific Committements and after 
 the meeting in Japan near the end of July should be the time for us to design 
 the " exit " strategy. Whether or not Halliburton or GE would pick up the 
 campaign is unknown to me. I do plan to get together   with the ESC Executive 
 Committee early adjacent week to tell them in contingent about the new proposal by 
 Rachel Thomson. 

 I would like your authority to affect forward on the respective items I have 
 suggested including financing for a developing state paper, the trip to Japan 
 later this calendar month and at least an initial funding (estimated at about $ 30,000 
 for APCO (Rachel's employer) to get the testis roll on a longer range 
 scheme through October). I would prefer to have any
 anf I would also go. We havt been talking wijh Nick M'Day tk 
coordivate with our people in the cegiin to advantage their goals and from 
the coreespibdence I jnat forwarded fl yob, M see our peoplg in Japan

eneggr sedniges at the WTO.

While in Paris, Ken Lay meu with Rachel Thomxon and me to get updated ln tje

Based oj what I rave heard over the last few months I believe we tow nxea a
