SUBJECT: DEMARCHE DELIVERED: SUPPORT VOICED FOR THE TRIPARTITE CORE 
GROUP IN BURMA 
 
REF: STATE 3932 
 
(SBU) In a December 15 discussion with the MFA's Deputy DG for 
Southeast Asia, Ta Duy Chinh, Deputy PolCouns urged Vietnam to 
support extending the mandate of the Tripartite Core Group in Burma 
(TCG) beyond July 19.  Per reftel, he stressed the continued 
importance of the TCG in delivering assistance to hard-hit areas of 
the Irrawaddy Delta.  DDG Chinh promised to relay the substance of 
the demarche to his superiors, along with his strong personal 
endorsement.  Chinh said that he views the TCG not only as a useful 
mechanism for facilitating humanitarian assistance in the aftermath 
of Cyclone Nargis, but as good way for Burma to "build trust" with 
the rest of ASEAN and -- through the UN -- the wider world.  He said 
that he would encourage his government's representatives at the 
January 17 Humanitarian Task Force meeting to support TCG's 
extension.
