ABLE TO ACCEPT PEOPLE BACK. IF WE ASSUME THAT THEY WILL AGREE TO ACCEPT ONE AIRCRAFT PER WEEK, WITH AN AVERAGE OF 80 PERSONS PER AIRCRAFT, FROM THE BEGINNING OF AUGUST, THIS WOULD GIVE A TOTAL OF 2,800. WE SUGGEST THAT WE WORK ON A FIGURE OF 3,000 FOR THIS FINANCIAL YEAR.
5. COSTS ARE ALSO DIFFICULT TO ESTIMATE ACCURATELY, BUT WE BELIEVE USD1,000 PER PERSON SHOULD BE ADEQUATE, DEPENDING UPON WHAT WE CAN AGREE WITH THE VIETNAMESE ON REINTEGRATION ASSISTANCE.
MIFT CONTAINS OUR TENTATIVE COSTINGS.
