Jakarta, P.N.G. begin talks
NZPA-Reuter KJakarta Indonesia and Papua New Guinea have begun talks on border problems, says the official Antara news agency. The meeting, in Surabaya, east Java, is aimed at working out improvements to the border agreement between the two nations, Antara said. i The head of the 28-man Indonesian delegation, Mr Soedarmono, said he hoped the meeting would help relations. Papua New Guinea
sent 18 delegates. Port Moresby has twice protested strongly to Jakarta recently, saying that Indonesian troops had crossed the border from Irian Jaya province. Indonesia denied both charges. Relations were further strained when more than 8000 refugees poured into Papua New Guinea. They said they were fleeing from clashes between Indonesian troops and rebels in Irian Jaya.
