Bradley to Visit Hawaii, Indonesia

Share

Los Angeles Mayor Tom Bradley will set off on Sunday for a 10-day trip to Hawaii and Indonesia that will be part good will and part trade mission, his office said Tuesday.

Bradley’s first stop is to be the island of Kauai, where he will attend the two-day Airport Operators Council International Conference. He will go on to Honolulu for a planning session for the Japan-America Conference, an October summit meeting of mayors from the United States and Japan. Bradley is to be the American host of the conference.

The mayor’s last stop will be Jakarta, Indonesia’s capital and a sister city of Los Angeles, where he will meet with port officials and local dignitaries.

It will be the first overseas trip of 1991 for Bradley, who has traveled abroad at public expense more often in recent years than any mayor in the nation’s 10 biggest cities.

Bradley last traveled abroad three months ago, when he led a delegation for a weeklong trip to Leningrad, Los Angeles’ newest sister city. A month earlier, he took a 17-day trip to Western Europe.

The city’s airport and harbor departments will pay for the upcoming trip, a Bradley spokesman said.
