BUILDING CONFERENCE

REF: 07 JAKARTA 3436

Classified By: Pol/C Joseph Legend Novak, reasons 1.4 (b+d).


1. (U) Indonesian officials have announced that the
"Africa-Asia Capacity Building Conference for Palestine"
(reftel),which notionally had been slated to take place in
Jakarta in late March or early April 2008, will be postponed.
The conference, which Indonesia is organizing with South
Africa, will now likely take place in May or June 2008 at the
earliest.


2. (C) Indonesian Department of Foreign Affairs (DEPLU)
officials told poloff that the ongoing unrest in Gaza was one
reason for the postponement. Administrative difficulties and
a lack of agreement on the conference agenda also contributed
to the delay. Indonesian officials are also unsure how the
conference will relate to other efforts, particularly the
EU-led Paris conference on assistance to the Palestinian
Authority. DEPLU officials expect President Yudhoyono to
discuss conference planning with South African President
Mbeki when he visits the RSA following the OIC Summit in
Dakar, Senegal. The two governments had agreed to hold the
conference as a way to support the Annapolis process.
