VIETNAMESE REFUGEES IN HONG KONG.

1. WE SHOULD BE HAPPY TO SPEAK TO THE JAPANESE ABOUT

THE PROBLEM OF VIETNAMESE REFUGEES IN HONG KONG.

IT WOULD BE HELPFUL IF YOU COULD PROVIDE US WITH THE NECESSARY BRIEFING AND BACKGROUND MATERIAL.

2. ON TIMING, WE THINK THAT TO ACHIEVE THE BEST RESULTS, WE SHOULD GO IN AT A FAIRLY HIGH LEVEL AS A FOLLOW-UP TO THE MEETING WITH THE JAPANESE CONSUL-GENERAL, FUJII, IN HONG KONG. GRATEFUL TO KNOW WHEN THIS HAS TAKEN PLACE

AND WHAT LINE FUJII TOOK.
