Citizens generally are concerned over the human suffering in Southeast Asia and the problems faced by the millions of refugees. orphans. and civilian casualties. Secretary General Kurt Waldheim has indicated that aid could be channeled through the U.N. high commission for refugees. "which has programs of humanitarian assistance on both sides of the conflict."

We should advocate intensified efforts within the U.N. to develop solutions to this critical issue. Your strong leadership.
