1. (C) PolCouns delivered ref. A and ref. C points to Hasan
Kleib, Department of Foreign Affairs Director for
International Security and Disarmament Affairs, on September

8. Kleib had read the points the night before, which he had
received through a copy we had left at the North American
Affairs desk. Without indicating any specific planned
Indonesian action, he stated unequivocally that Indonesia
supported UNSCR 1695, because it was obliged to do so under
the UN Charter. He added that events in North Korea are
important to Indonesia, given the possible spillover effect
on the rest of Asia. Kleib noted that Indonesia's Special
Envoy had attempted to persuade the North Koreans to return
to the Six-Party talks, and Kleib himself had told the North
Korean Ambassador that Pyongyang had gone too far when it
launched its ballistic missile.


2. (C) Kleib said that Indonesia's participation in the Five
Plus Five talks was indicative of Indonesian desires to
assist. After an exchange with Kleib on what actions by
member states might constitute "vigilance," PolCouns urged
that the GOI take proactive steps as suggested in the talking
points. He expressed the hope that the GOI would be prepared
to discuss steps that it would take during the next Five Plus
Five session in New York. Kleib made no commitment in reply.
