TO PRIORITY FCO TELNO. 365 OF 27 MAY INFO PRIORITY HONG KONG ROUTINE CANBERRA PEKING SINGAPORE (SAIGON UNIT) SAVING UKMIS NEW YORK.
MY TELEGRAM NUMBER 361: VIETNAMESE REFUGEES IN HONG KONG.
1. JAEGER OF UNHCR HAS SUGGESTED TO US THAT KADRY, THEIR REGIONAL REPRESENTATIVE IN. BANGKOK, MIGHT MAKE SHORTLY ONE OF HIS 'FAIRLY FREQUENT TRIPS TO HONG KONG TO OFFER ADVICE TO THE LOCAL AUTHORITIES. PRESUMABLY MAIN OBJECT OF SUCH A TRIP WOULD IN FACT BE TO REPORT FIRST-HAND TO HCR ON REFUGEE SITUATION, AND JAEGER WANTS TO BE SURE WE WOULD HAVE NO OBJECTION.
2. JAEGER'S APPROACH CASTS FURTHER DOUBT ON UNHCR'S WILLINGNESS, IF THEY WERE BROUGHT INTO THE HONG KONG EXERCISE, TO OPERATE ONLY THROUGH ICEM. IT ALSO NO DOUBT INDICATES A DESIRE FOR MORE INFORMATION THAN WE HAVE SO FAR BEEN ABLE TO PROVIDE.
3. WE SHOULD LIKE TO BE ABLE TO REPLY TO JAEGER SOON. GRATEFUL
FOR EARLY INSTRUCTIONS.
