From a recommendation letter by General Manager of Cable and Wireless Limited, dated 17 May 1954:
"Mr V. N. Dronnikoff, Architect of Messrs Minutti & Partners (Architects and Civil Engineers) Hong Kong and Borneo, was actively engaged in the construction of Electra House, a nine-storeyed building for Cable and Wireless Limited. This building has proved entirely satisfactory in every way, and the design presented many problems, since it necessitated the inclusion of operational rooms, offices, engine rooms, and a Penthouse for the residence of the General Manager in the Far East. He was also responsible for the design and constructional details of the studios for Radio Hong Kong on our sixth and seventh floors; this was no light task. The results generally were excellent, and we are pleased to thoroughly recommend him as a highly completent architect, covering a large field in design and supervision of erection."
