Default TV Mounting onto plasterboard walls ?

Hi,
I want to mount a smaller lcd tv which weighs around 12kg onto one of the
internal walls in our house. It is one of those strange internal walls made
up of a sandwich with a sheet of plasterboard on the outsides and a centre
made of a honeycomb structure. The TV mount unit is basically a thick steel
square plate with the 4 holes in the corners at 100mm spacing (just like a
standard vesa mount on the back of a tv).
Do you think that 4 of those hollow wall anchors would be strong enough to
hold the plate onto the wall ? It has a simple tilt adjustment so once fixed
up it would just be left in position and not pulled about.
Any advice would be welcomed or other ideas on how to fix it ?
Thanks
