Classified By: Economic Officer Tobias Glucksman. Reason: 1.4 (b) and
(d).
1. (S) As requested in reftel, we met with Department of
Foreign Affairs Directorate of International Security and
Disarmament Fajar Wirawan Harijo on June 27 to pre-notify him
of the USG,s intention to request on July 20 UN 1267
designation of the Philippines and Indonesia branches of the
International Islamic Relief Organization (IIRO) and one
individual affiliated with IIRO. We encouraged the GOI to
consider co-sponsoring the designation and to use identified
information to begin seeking assets, if any, of IIRO
Indonesia, IIRO Philippines and Abd Al Hamid Al-Mujil in
preparation for their UN 1267 listing.
2. (S) Harijo said he would pass the identifier information
and statements of case to Directorate of International
Security and Disarmament Hassan Klieb for his consideration.
Harijo parroted the GOI,s now standard response to our
proposal for new designations: The GOI will not stand in the
way of other countries efforts to designate individuals
through the UN 1267 process, but it will not co-sponsor or
play a leading role in those designations. We requested that
he forward identifier information to appropriate law
enforcement officials noting that investigations into assets
should occur prior to July 20 if possible.
3. (S) A U.S.-led designation of an Islamic Organization,
particularly a charity, runs the risk of public backlash from
Islamic groups and opponents of the Yudhoyono Administration
who seek to embarrass it. In light of this risk, and the
very thin statement of case against IIRO-Indonesia, post
requests press talking points on the proposed designations as
soon as possible and certainly well before the Jun 20
scheduled request to the UN.
