AdamMalik was subsequently endorsed by the Asian group as their sole candidate.
Realizing this turn of events, AdamMalik forced the Assembly to vote on the China question, despite the very late hour (it was then close to midnight) and in spite of the objection of several members, who preferred the voting until the following day, AdamMalik rightly viewed their proposal as mere delaying tactics.
Adam Mailk promptly gave his support to the Austrian candidate, for which Dr. Waldheim was so grateful that he promised AdamMalik to appoint a qualified Indonesian national should he be elected, since no Indonesian had as yet attained the rank of Under-Secretary General or Assistant-Secretary General in the United Nations.
