We must. in general. upgrade our VOA and RFE/Radio Liberty broadcasts by satellite transmitters and strengthen our broadcasts in every major nationality languages spoken in the Soviet Union. Several of our constituent organizations came from Vietnamese. Laos and Cambodian refugees. We believe. with President Reagan. that our involvement in Indochina was a noble cause aborted by internal domestic considerations. particularly by the United States Congress. The end of our military engagement in Indochina must not mean the loss of our interest in the region. We must play an active role politically. diplomatically and economically to hasten the day of Indochinas liberation from the Communist regime in Hanoi. Special attention must be paid to the nonCommunist elements in Cambodia as an alternative to both the genocidal regime of Pol Pot and the Vietnamesebacked puppet regime of Hang Samarin. Finally. we must focus attention of the burden created by the exodus of the Vietnamese boat people. the Laotian refugees and the Cambodians in Thai camps on the border upon the countries of first asylum and the entire free world. Their presence. increasing every month. should encourage on to follow policies to create political and economic circumstances rendering escape unnecessary. The NCAEG has concerns in Central America. too. as we represent free Cuban organizations.
