1. The Dutch plan of having the Federal states form an interim government is
progressing. Republican sympathizers in East Indonesia and the Pasundan
State had promised to withhold their support from the formation of
the new cabinets, but they later decided it would be better for all concerned
if they acquiesced to the Dutch proposals and then tried to help the
Republic from within.
2. Republican strategy is continued resistance in the form of guerrilla
warfare, which will intensify when scattered groups are reorganized
behind a definite common policy. The Maejumi leaders are trying to
organize resistance,
about the confused position of the Republic because
be feels that the many thousands of young men who, like himself, have
dedicated their lives to opposing Dutch colonialism will eventually oust
the Dutch. These men have given up careers and professions for this end.
Admittedly there are many Republican opportunists who will artici to in
the Dutch sponsored Federal government, but this 25X1X
Will detract from the backbone of Republican resistance. He believes that
new leaders will come forward., and that in the end the Republic will succeed.
4. While Communists are now fighting with the nationalists, it is not the desire
of any of the nationalists to be dominated by a Soviet or any foreign group.
