VIETNAMESE REFUGEES : EXPANSION OF ICEM OFFICE IN HONG KONG.
1. RALPH CADEAUX, THE NEW ICEM REPRESENTATIVE HERE, HAS TOLD US THAT HE HAS ASKED HIS HEAD OFFICE TO AUTHORIZE A CONSIDERABLE EXPANSION OF HIS STAFF. HE HAS ALSO ASKED US TO PASS YOU HIS REGARDS AND TO SAY HE WOULD BE MOST GRATEFUL IF YOU COULD SPEAK INFORMALLY TO THE DIRECTOR OF ICEM, EMPHASISING THE IMPORTANCE OF EXPANDING THE HONG KONG OFFICE.
2. UNLESS YOU SEE OBJECTION, GRATEFUL IF YOU WOULD SPEAK TO CARLIN. IN DOING SO, YOU MAY WISH TO SAY THAT WE RELY ON THE EFFICIENT TRAVEL ARRANGEMENTS MADE BY ICEM, BUT WE BELIEVE THEIR
PRESENT STAFF WILL NOT BE ADEQUATE TO COPE WITH THE INCREASED NUMBERS WHICH WE HOPE WILL BE MOVED DURING THE REST OF THE YEAR.
