POW PANEL POSTPONES TRIP TO SOUTHEAST ASIA UNTIL APRIL
(Article on Special Committee on POW/MIAs trip) (120)
Washington -- The Select Committee on POW/MIA Affairs will travel to
Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos and Thailand in April, Chairman John Kerry
(Democrat of Massachusetts) and Vice Chairman Bob Smith (Republican of New
Hampshire) announced late January 30.

"We will go to Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, and Thailand equipped with the
results of intensive research, interviews and depositions," Kerry said.
"We expect that the change also will ensure more senators can participate.

"These extra months will give Committee investigators time to do additional
research and get the intelligence we need to make the trip a success,"
Smith added.
