Albright Selects Cambodia Envoy

Secretary of State Madeleine Albright chose former Rep. Stephen J. Solarz (D-N.Y.) to help deal with the crisis in Cambodia, where Second Prime Minister Hun Sen has taken power by ousting First Prime Minister Norodom Ranariddh. The State Department said Solarz, who once chaired the House East Asia Subcommittee, would hold talks in Japan, China, Thailand and Indonesia before visiting Cambodia. Solarz will report his findings to Albright before she meets with leaders of the Assn. of Southeast Asian Nations in Malaysia this month.
