1. On 14 February 1950 General RUNG Chao--yuan former divisional
oomuander in the 19th Aoute Army and subordinate of TS IAI T4 ing-klai,
stated that he planned to leave Ilong Kong in late lebruary for the purpose
of visiting overseas Chinese communities in Southeast Asia and discussing
with local leaders the possibility of organizing an anti-Communist movement.*
He was planning to begin his work in ,Vorth Borneo. KUNG believo that it is
essential to organize and propagandize the Chinese in Southeast Asia as soon
as possible to combat the influence of TA.Y Koh Kee, who can pretend to speak
with authority as the result of his travels and his position in Communist
China.
2. Although KUNG previously had only a very small following, his prestige has
increased during the past year. The Chinese in Southeast Asia will listen
to him because of their eagerness to learn about the situation in China
proper.

3. General KUNG is at present connected with the Young China Party.
I Comment. In view of General KUNG's earlier associations, his
press activity is surprising.
