Abstract:
The Buddhist dissident movement at present poses less threat to
political stability in South Vietnam than at any time since
early 1963. The Government of Vietnam (GVN) has had good
intelligence on the activities of the militant Buddhists, and
their control measures have been calculated to control the
situation without over-reacting which might have precipitated
serious disturbances. Thich Tri Quang is at present the sole
leader of the militant faction and the only person sufficiently
motivated and capable to direct anti-GVN activities. The
personal power struggle between the militant faction and the
moderated led by Thich Tam Chau is likely to continue. It is
estimated that Tri Quang might be able to control only about
180,000 votes in his areas of greatest strength--Central Vietnam
and Saigon. He is capable of stimulating and inspiring others to
action, however, and his followers in the Buddhist hierarchy
appear to be loyal and disciplined and centered
around a hard core of approximately 600 monks and nuns. Tam
Chau is supported by the northern refugee Buddhist groups,
although much of this support is probably a reaction against the
extremist political activity undertaken by the militants. Tam
Chau is weak in organizational ability and has no reservoir of
devoted cadres. Although most Buddhists probably oppose the
current military regime, both the Tam Chau and Tri Quang
factions will probably not oppose the presidential and National
Assembly elections but rather quietly support the election and
try to see that as many of their followers as possible are
elected. Tam Chau will probably support Prime Minister Nguyen
Cao Ky and Thich Tri Quang may announce for Tran Van Huong.
While the Buddhists in their political role are undoubtedly
penetrated by Viet Cong (VC) there is no hard evidence that the
Buddhists are dominated and controlled by them, despite the fact
that they frequently play into the hand of
the VC. The GVN appears to be well in control of the situation,
and while Tri quang will continue to embarass the GVN whenever
possible, there are indications that Buddhist leaders disapprove
of a continued struggle outside the law. In September and
October the Buddhists, both militants and moderates, will very
likely flock to the polls instead of to the barricades.
