1.
VIETNAMESE ARE IN THE THROES OF DRV 30 TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATIONS AND IT IS UNLIKELY THAT WE SHALL GET ANY SENSE OUT OF THEM BEFORE 3 SEPTEMBER. IT COULD BE THAT PREOCCUPATION WITH CELEBRATIONS IN SAIGON ACCOUNTS AT LEAST IN PART FOR FAILURE ON THE PART OF AUTHORITIES THERE TO EVACUATE HONG KONG BELONGERS ON UNHCR FLIGHTS.
2.
THIS SAID, WE SHALL SEEK EARLIEST POSSIBLE OPPORTUNITY
TO RAISE THE MATTER WITH PRG REPRESENTATIVE HERE.
