Sir, - Having read with pleasure Conor O'Clery's "letters" in The Irish Times, written from faraway places over several years, I feel prompted to express my appreciation through the newspaper which he represents.

His articles are always interesting, informative and well researched. His present series from the Far East are not just glimpses of distant places. They convey a sense of empathy with the countries about which he writes. We, his readers, benefit by his attractive presentation of those experiences.

I hope his letters from afar will long continue to appear in The Irish Times. - Yours, etc.,

Jerram Burrows, Longwood Avenue, Dublin 8.
