00:00And lastly, what is the position of the executive on the reported swap request of the Indonesian government?
00:08Yes, Madam Chair, good afternoon.
00:10Regarding the investigation as to who helped the GUOS, right now we're still waiting for the results from the NBI and TAO.
00:21But with regard to the request for possibly prisoner exchange, we have an existing treaty with Indonesia.
00:30We could accommodate such request if formally made.
00:34But right now, no such request has been done by Indonesia.
00:38So still, these are unverified reports.
00:42Alright, thank you for the update.
00:45Lastly, to Wesley Guo, is there any sighting? He's the last one we're looking for.
00:49Yes, Madam Chair. Actually, we're still waiting for information from PAOK and NBI, Madam Chair.
