Apology To Messrs Khashoggi,

Munk And Gilmour

In the January issue of PIM an item was published in Pacific Report which reported a statement made by Senator Kuar Battan Singh last November in the Fiji Senate. In the state ment Senator Singh made certain allegations against Mr Adnan Khashoggi, Mr Peter Munk and Mr David Gilmour. PIM in reporting that the allegations had been made was not intending to convey the impression that the allegations were true. On the contrary, PIM is satisfied that the allegations were not true. PIM apologises unconditionally to Messrs Khashoggi, Munk and Gilmour for any embarrassment which this article, including its headline, may have caused them.
