INDONESIAN OFFICIALS ARE INCREASINGLY UNHAPPY WITH
WHAT THEY REGARD AS RAPACIOUS JAPANESE BUSINESS PRAC-

"FRONT MEN" RATHER THAN "PARTNERS" IN JOINT VENTURE
SCHEMES, AND THE JAPANESE UNWILLINGNESS TO DEVELOP
INDONESIAN LABOR AND MANAGERIAL TALENT. RESENTMENT
AGAINST JAPANESE ECONOMIC INROADS HAS ALSO BECOME
MANIFEST AMONG THE INDONESIAN PUBLIC, WHERE THE EPITHET
"THE ECONOMIC ANIMALS FROM 1HE NORTH" HAS COME INTO USE

LEAD THE REGIME TO FEEL FREE TO ADOPT ANY MEASURES IT DESIRES.

OUT ITS REACTION THUS FAR HAS BEEN FAIRLY RESTRAINED. PRESIDENT
LAKAS HAS TRIED TO HEAD OFF THE STRIKC. AND THE GOVCRNMCNT-CONTROLLED
STUDENT ORGANIZATIONS AND THE PRESS HAVE CRITICIZED THC BUSINESS
COMMUNITY'S ACTION. IN A SPEECH YESTERDAY, TORRIJOS CHARGED THAT
THE GROUP BEHIND THE STRIKE WAS A "PRIVILEGED SET" SO MINISCULE
THAT "IT CAN BE LOADED IN A SINGLE AIR FORCE PLANE AND TAKEN OUT
OF THE COUNTRY TO A TOWN SOMEWHERE ON THE FLORIDA PENINSULA WHICH
CONSTITUTES THE VALLEY OF A!..L LATIN AMERICAN REACTIONARIES." HE
HAS INSTRUCTED THE NATIONAL GUARD NOT TO PERMIT CERTAIN OFFICIALS
OF THE COUNCIL OF PRIVATE ENTERPRISE TO LEAVE PANAMA BECAUSE OF
THEIR ROLE IN CALLING FOR THE BUSINESS SHUTDOWN. TORRIJOS THUS
"AV o f READY TO TAKE rrurDr MrA-SURES IF ME JUDGES THAT THE RE-
SCHEDULED STRIKE COULD CAUSE MAJOR DISLOCATIONS TO THE ECONOMY.

3. COSTA RICA, THE MINISTER or LABOR AND UNION REPRESENT-
ATIVES, WITH THC HELP OF PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE DANIEL ODUOER, HAVE
AGREED ON A WAY TO RESOLVE THE MONTHS-OLD DISPUTE HCTW:EN THE
ELECTRICAL WORKERS AND THE ELECTRIC POWER INSTITUTE. THE MAIN
OBSTACLE TO SETTLEMENT HAS BEEN THE INSTITUTE'S KEFUSAL TO REHIRE
EIGHT UNION ACTIVISTS. THE TENTATIVE SOLUTION IS THAT THE EIGHT
UILL BE PLACED IN OTHER GOVERNMENT AGENCIES UNTIL AFTER ODUDER TAKES
OFFICE AND THEN TRANSFERRED BACK TO THE INSTITUTE. THIS AGREEMENT,
OF COURSE, PRESUPPOSES THAT ODUBER--RUNNING ON THE GOVERNING PARTY
TICKET--N!LL WIN THE PRESIDENCY.
ODUBER, WHO IS WALKING A TIGHT-ROPE BETWEEN NEEDING PRESIDENT
FIGUERES' SUPPORT IN THE FEBRUARY ELECTION AND WANTING TO DIS-
SOCIATE HIMSELF FROM SOME ASPECTS OF THE FIGUCRCS ADMINISTRATION,
IS CONCERNED THAT CONTINUED LABOR UNREST WILL ADVERSELY AFFECT HIS
PARTY'S CHANCES. HE IS ALSO ATTEMPTING TO HEAD OFF A POSSIBLE
LOSS OF LA80R SUPPORT RESULTING FROM FIGUERES' RECENT HARSH BLAST
AT THE ELECTRICAL UNION'S LEADERSHIP. FIGUERES, WHO HAS BEEN
TRYING TO MEDIATE THE DISPUTE, WAS ANGERED BY UNION IRRESPONSIBILITY
