Salmon readying for trip to see Dalai Lama
U.S. Representative Matt Salmon, an LDS Church member serving in the
U.S. Congress from Arizona, was scheduled to leave for India
yesterday for a meeting with the Dalai Lama. Salmon, who served an
LDS mission to Taiwan, speaks Mandarin and has a strong interest in
Chinese affairs as a result of his mission.
Salmon is making the trip at the request of the Campaign for a Free
Tibet, a human rights group. This is Salmon's second trip to the
region since March.
