              <text>Kenneth was the first political officer FE ever had who had lived in Southeast Asia and spoke a Southeast Asian language. Up to that time, all matters regarding Souteast Asia had been dealt with by the Europeans, and the FE had to nod their heads and sign off. Now, all of a sudden, the "drafting officer" was Kenneth. He now handled matters for Southeast Asia. The people who now had to agree or disagree with policy were the European officers. Naturally, they didn't like this. This was the line Kenneth took, and that was a shocker. That was inherent in all the papers that he drafted. </text>
