Hastings IRIS III in Malaysia 1969 ?

The IRIS III Hastings WJ338 visited Malaysia in April-May 1969 for "Have Garden" trials with the RN, having previously received an (unspecified) radio fit for the occasion. I wonder if any forum members might know what the "Have Garden" trials would have involved ? A Google suggests there was a US "Have Garden" project, apparently connected with an assessment of the MiG-21 engine, but that doesn't seem to fit the bill for the Hastings task.
