There axe some Chinese in Ind:.'nesie who are dissatisfied with both the
Chinese Nationalists and Communists. These Chinese may eventually form
an opposition grozupc.
INJO Bong Goat believes that there is a possibility of such an opposition
group developing in Indonesia. In his opinion this group will include
many Chinese who are still loyal to CHIANG Kai-shek. He feels they will
continue to back CHIANG if he successfully defends Formosa, but will join
the opposition if he fails.
According to INJO, about 200 Chinese a month are returning to Indonesia
from Communist China. Their stories are rust beginning; to circulate in
the Ch:reso oom.murity and most of the accounts are anti-Communist, telling
of starvation and bad govornment.
