Director General in the Directorate of Economic Development
and Environmental Affairs at the Department of Foreign

importance of the issue of climate change--urged Indonesia to
reach out to Maldivian representatives in Geneva to discuss
concerns regarding the Maldives' proposed resolution on
climate change and human rights in its current form. Poloff

resolution would have on both the Bali Action Plan and the
already overstretched U.N. Human Rights Council.
2. (U) Al Farisi expressed no immediate reaction to the
USG's concerns, but said he was aware of the proposed
resolution. He said he was expecting a report from his
