Message received through service channels from Subardjo 'Foreign
Minister Indonesian Republic' whilst expressing gratitude also
mentions indignation at non-disembarkation of 'twenty seven'
Indonesian 'people' and states that reason for action taken is
unknown, but according to reports at order of Australian
Government. Please explain personally and informally to Subardjo
that the return of the twenty seven personnel to Dutch Timor was
necessary in order to ensure the landing of the vast majority. In
Dutch Timor they will be under our control and they will be able
to return to Java as soon as that course is possible.
