Peking also uses the "united front" stratagem elsewhere. Most effective example is in Indonesia, where the 2,000,000-member Partai Komunis Indonesia, the third largest Communist Party in the world (after China and Russia), dominates the streets and, through the streets, President Sukarno. Pro-Peking Communists also work hand in hand with Singapore's Barisan Socialist Party, have long since captured Japan's 10 million-member Gensuikyo, its Council Against Atomic and Hydrogen Bombs (which nonetheless lost considerable support with the advent of Red China as a nuclear power). Though India's 160,000-member Communist...
Spoken like a true diplomat, since Green undoubtedly knew the well-rehearsed sort of welcome he could expect. Act I took place at the Presidential Palace, where he presented his credentials, and consisted of champagne toasts with President Sukarno, together with a cordial lecture from the Bung on how U.S.-Indonesia relations were at their lowest ebb, all because U.S. policies in Viet Nam and Malaysia were "discouraging the Indonesian people in their wish to develop friendship with the United States." Act II, performed as Green drove back to the U.S. embassy, featured 2,000 Communist students and women chanting...

...land, Sukarno's infiltrators are effectively exploiting the corrosive ethnic and economic rivalries that divide the Federation's Chinese and Malays. Last week, after bellying through the bush near Sarawak's provincial capital of Kuching, a band of some 40 Indonesians in berets and tennis shoes surprised a police outpost, chopped down six Malaysian cops with a burst from a Czech burp gun. Led by a pair of Malaysian exiles, both Chinese Communists, the guerrillas went searching for Chinese peasants loyal to the government of Tunku Abdul Rahman. They killed three in one family, stabbed three...
...where scores of motor-powered sampans ferrying Sukarno's guerrillas and saboteurs have been intercepted off the Malay Peninsula in the past year, the Indonesians are now using kamikaze tactics to frustrate Malaysian patrol boats. Suicide sampans are rigged with explosives so that they blow up when halted or hit by naval guns, thus deterring attack and giving other insurgent craft a chance to escape in the confusion...
