1. (S) Jonathan Tow of MFA's International Organizations
Directorate on May 23 provided us with a storage cost
estimate for the 20 containers of sodium perchlorate
Singapore seized April 21 (reftels).
2. (S) Tow said Singapore Customs estimated that storing the
containers would cost approximately S$15,000-20,000
(USD9,800-13,000) per month. He emphasized that this was a
ballpark figure that did not take into account disposal
costs. Tow said the MFA was still working on responses to
our other questions posed in Ref B.
