- <p> END OF THE LINE
- </p>
- <p> After three years of negotiations, Britain and Vietnam signed
- an agreement last week for the deportation from Hong Kong -- by
- force, if necessary -- of all Vietnamese boat people who do not
- qualify as political refugees. Of the 55,000 Vietnamese migrants
- languishing in detention camps, as many as 52,000 face expulsion
- over the next four years. The accord follows a pact signed last
- Oct. 29, in which Hanoi agreed to accept any boat people who
- arrived in the crown colony after that date.
