If you are new to these pages, please read an introduction on the structure of a cable as well as how to discuss them with others. See also the FAQs

Understanding cables
Every cable message consists of three parts:
  • The top box shows each cables unique reference number, when and by whom it originally was sent, and what its initial classification was.
  • The middle box contains the header information that is associated with the cable. It includes information about the receiver(s) as well as a general subject.
  • The bottom box presents the body of the cable. The opening can contain a more specific subject, references to other cables (browse by origin to find them) or additional comment. This is followed by the main contents of the cable: a summary, a collection of specific topics and a comment section.
To understand the justification used for the classification of each cable, please use this WikiSource article as reference.

 1.  (SBU)  On January 10 and 11, Pol/Econ Chief discussed 
the draft UNSC resolution on Burma with Sun Suon of the MFA's 
International Relations Department.  Post has passed the 
original and revised (reftels C and A) texts to the MFA. 
Suon flatly stated that the Cambodian government does not 
believe that a UNSC resolution will be helpful in moving the 
regime in Rangoon towards positive action.  He reiterated MFA 
Secretary of State Ouch Borith's comments to the Ambassador 
 
SIPDIS 
that Cambodia remains unhappy with the situation in Burma and 
will closely monitor developments.  He noted that he has 
discussed the USG request for ASEAN support for the 
resolution with Borith, who promised to inform FM Hor 
Namhong. 
 
2.  (SBU)  Suon took on board our points regarding the 
issuance of any negative public statements during the ASEAN 
Summit (reftel B) but was noncommittal.  He did note that he 
thought it reasonable to assume that the subject of the 
resolution would be a topic of discussion in informal 
discussions during the Summit.
