CIA-RDP79T00975A00890 340001-6 25X1 Indonesia- Philippines-Malaysia: Recent Indo- nesian-Philippine talks in Bangkok may have promoted progress on several area problems. Meetings between Foreign Ministers Malik of Indonesia and Ramos of the Philippines., on..30 April- and 1 May apparently resulted in.an understanding on the Philippines' recognition of Malaysia and Indonesia's recognition of Singapore. The Philippines once more agreed to delay normalizing relations with Malaysia, and recognition now is reported to be scheduled for the first week of June. Indonesia apparently hopes to announce formal recognition of Singapore a few days later. The problem of Indonesia's three-year confronta- tion with Malaysia was also discussed at Bangkok both by Malik and Ramos and in a private meeting on 1 May between Malik and Ghazali, Malaysia's ranking Foreign Ministry official. Malik again proposed some kind of survey in Malaysia's Borneo territories as to whether the people want to remain under Malaysian administra- tion. According to an unconfirmed press report from Kuala Lumpur on 4 May, Malaysia is willing to hold peace talks with Indonesia if the present "calm" on the Borneo border continues. Indonesia's follow-up on the confrontation problem, however, depends greatly on domestic developments, particularly the pace of the campaign to denigrate President Sukarno. Ramos observed on 4 May that confrontation was not likely to end suddenly. 25X1 5 May 66 3 Approved For Release 2005/05/17 : CIA-RDP79T00975A00890034 001-6 ---------- Approved For Release 2005/05/17 : CIA-RDP79TOO975A008900340001-6 25X1 Dominican Republic: Isolated clashes between partisans of presidential candidates Bosch and Balaguer continue throughout the country. Among such incidents was one last weekend in the Cibao Valley, which led to a death and numerous in- juries. The violence usually starts during rallies or other political activities. What begins as insulting taunts and rock throwing often degenerates into knife- wielding, pistol-shooting melees. The national police, who have primary responsi- bility for public order outside the capital and Santiago, are usually poorly trained and.equipped, and often par- tial to one group. Their responses have ranged from overreacting with lethal measures to indifference. Reformist Party candidate Balaguer publicly charged on 29 April that Bosch's Dominican Revolu- tionary Party and others have instigated attacks by young ruffians against his followers. He acknowledged that some of his own supporters have been guilty of similar tactics and indicted Dominicans as a whole for "acting out of collective madness. 11 In reporting Balaguer's speech, the US Embassy commented that incidents over last weekend point up the validity of his concern. Under such conditions Bosch has chosen to cam- paign from his well-guarded home, and Balaguer feels obliged to be escorted by heavily armed bodyguards. The prospects for a meaningful electoral contest on 1 June could be jeopardized should the tempo of vio- lence incKease or a principal political leader be assas- sinata~LJ 25X1 5 May 66 .
