YOUR TELNO 845 TO HONG KONG: REGIONAL HOLDING CENTRE
1. I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO SPEAK TO ANYONE IN THE ASEAN DEPARTMENT.
2. FROM EARLIER CONVERSATIONS, HOWEVER, I CAN SAY THAT THE BRUNEIANS WERE UNAEARE LAST WEEK THAT THE PHILIPPINES HAD AGREED TO HOST THE REGIONAL HOLDING CENTRE. UNLESS THEY CHANGE THEIR VIEW RADICALLY, THEY WILL NOT PRESS FOR THAT. THE BRUNEIANS HAVE A FEAR THAT A HOLDING CENTRE WILL ACT AS A SORT OF MAGNET FOR REFUGEES.
