DISPUTES

02

With reference to your minute of 30 July addressed to the Research Department on the above subject, I attach a memorandum setting out the comments of the Far Eastern Department and this Department on the paper enclosed with your minute. I appreciate that we were asked to check only glaring errors, omissiona or distortions. However, the paper contains a number of general statements which include opinions which in our view are distorted or inaccurate. We therefore felt bound to record our comments on them, although I appreciate that the Case Study will be published as an entirely private exercise without any official vetting.
