Subtle Change in Johnson Pacific Tour Stop in Malaysia
The United States plan to land Air Force One in Malaysia signals a subtle shift in President Johnsons Pacific itinerary. Malaysia has no military links or troops in Viet Nam and did not attend the Manila summit, yet the 21 hour stopover is described as a thank you gesture for anti Communist support. Malaysian leaders urge tough line against North Viet Nam while seeking negotiated settlement. State Department officials cite spontaneous invitation from Prime Minister Rahman in 1964 as basis for the open date visit. Moscow reports first snow of the winter.

U S withdrawal plans for South Viet Nam would remove 60 000 to 80 000 Viet Cong cadres plus 50 000 North Vietnamese regulars. Manila communique and Goldberg speech call for removing about 47 000 to 50 000 North Vietnamese reg ulars in 70 battalions.
