  • Revolution, Reform and Regionalism in Southeast Asia
    Revolution, Reform and Regionalism in Southeast Asia Geographically, Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam are situated in the fastest growing region in the world, positioned alongside the dynamic economies of neighboring China and Thailand. Revolution, Reform and Regionalism in Southeast Asia compares the postwar political economies of these three countries in the context of their individual and collective impact on recent efforts at regional integration. Based on research carried out over three decades, Ronald Bruce St John highlights the different paths to reform taken by these countries and the effect this has had on regional plans for economic development. Through its comparative analysis of the reforms implemented by Cam- bodia, Laos and Vietnam over the last 30 years, the book draws attention to parallel themes of continuity and change. St John discusses how these countries have demonstrated related characteristics whilst at the same time making different modifications in order to exploit the strengths of their individual cultures. The book contributes to the contemporary debate over the role of democratic reform in promoting economic devel- opment and provides academics with a unique insight into the political economies of three countries at the heart of Southeast Asia. Ronald Bruce St John earned a Ph.D. in International Relations at the University of Denver before serving as a military intelligence officer in Vietnam. He is now an independent scholar and has published more than 300 books, articles and reviews with a focus on Southeast Asia,

  • Air America in Laos III – in Combat by Dr
    Air America in Laos III – in combat by Dr. Joe F. Leeker First published on 29 May 2006, last updated on 23 March 2018. When, in May 1987, during the unveiling of the Air America Memorial at UTD’s McDermott Library at Richardson, former CIA director William Colby said that Air America aircraft were not combat aircraft, but transport aircraft, that was only true for most of Air America’s flights. But in at least three programs Air America crews flew or were to fly combat aircraft in Laos: B-26s in Projects Mill Pond and Black Watch in 1961 and T-28s as A-Team pilots for the Tango program. Already in July 1955, 2 C-47s chartered from CAT had participated in the first post-ceasefire combat jump flown by C-47s of the ANL (Armée Nationale Laotienne or Lao National Army), when the aircraft dropped the ANL’s airborne battalion, the Seno-based 1er Bataillon de Parachutistes, over the garrison of Moung Peun beleaguered by Pathet Lao forces.1 In August 59, PEO again contracted an Air America C-46 and C-47 for use in the Moung Peun paratroop drop.2 Then there was another absolutely unofficial use of Air America transport aircraft as bombers dropping “Hot soup”. Finally, many Air America aircraft flew combat support missions that brought them very close to the actual fighting: This was true for many missions flown by Air America’s helicopters, that is by the UH-34Ds assigned to the Madriver-contract and later especially for the Bells and S- 58Ts assigned to the AID-439-713 contract.

  • CHRIS GOLLON – Man in the Long Black Coat
    CHRIS GOLLON – Man In The Long Black Coat th Until 28 October 2017 IAP Fine Art, 15, Church St, Monmouth NP25 3BX www.iapfineart.com [email protected] 01600 772005 (Pictured: ‘Gimme Some Wine (after Eleanor McEvoy’s song) 36” x 48” (91 x 122cm) acrylic on canvas 2017. IAP Fine Art has a new exhibition of paintings by Chris Gollon (1953 – 2017), many taking their inspiration from songs by Bob Dylan, Neil Young and latterly Eleanor McEvoy. David Tregunna, IAP’s Director: “Following Chris’s unexpected death at only 64 in April, by curating this exhibition we want to celebrate his love of music, to show where it lead him intellectually and artistically; and to share his fascination with artistic ‘boundary crossing’”. The latter began when Thurston Moore of Sonic Youth made a unique 60-second tape each for Chris, Yoko Ono, David Bowie and Gavin Turk, asking them to respond with a work of art inspired by it to be exhibited in ‘ROOT’ at the Chisenhale Gallery, London in 1998. Gollon was interviewed about this recently for a new biography of Thurston Moore, ‘We Sing A New Language’ by Nick Soulsby (Omnibus, 2017). Indeed, Gollon’s ability to ‘paint a new language’ that reflects life as it really is made him unique. A friend of The Skids, he enjoyed the company of musicians, and one of his early museum acquisitions came when the Huddersfield Art Gallery acquired his large painting ‘Einstein & The Jealous Monk (after Bob Dylan’s Desolation Row)’ for its permanent collection to hang with Francis Bacon’s ‘Magdalene (II)’ and Sir Jacob Epstein’s ‘Einstein’.

I asked the young woman next to me which college she was in. When she replied, ‘St Mary’s’, I didn’t want to bore her about how things were in my day but asked how she found it. ‘Mary’s is the coolest College’, she replied. Maybe ‘cool’ is not a word that could have described us when I was a student and maybe we wouldn’t have wanted to have been considered ‘cool’, and in a way this highlights how the culture of St Mary’s, which is held dear across the generations, is continually changing. And it’s right that it should change. The Committee was so sorry to learn that Phil Gilmartin will be moving on to a new senior academic role at the University of East Anglia in the autumn. Building on existing strong foundations, he has done a huge amount to transform St Mary’s into the college of choice for so many applicants and to make it the dy- namic institution it now is. Yet Phil has always been very conscious of the history of St Mary’s. Helped by Anne Elliott from the Society Com- mittee, we have had a number of exhibitions of significant past events: the corridors, for instance, feature several photos of the young Queen laying the foundation stone in the early 50s.

  • Air America in Laos II – Military Aid by Dr
    Air America in Laos II – military aid by Dr. Joe F. Leeker Part II First published on 29 May 2006, last updated on 24 August 2015 I) Air America in Laos: military and paramilitary aid 1968-1973 Madriver operations 1968-73 During the 1968-73 period, the original Madriver contract had been transformed into contract no. F62531-67-0028 for Fiscal Years 68, 69, and 70 on 1 July 67, but as before, this contract covered flying services to be provided by an ever growing number of Udorn-based UH-34Ds plus the operation of one C-47 out of Bangkok, apparently a courier aircraft.1 On 1 July 70, that contract was followed by contract no. F04606-71-C-0002 that covered the Udorn-based UH-34Ds, the Bangkok-based C-47 plus a Udorn-based Volpar, apparently another courier aircraft.2 That contract is much more complex, as it does not only cover flying services to be performed by the UH-34Ds and the 2 transport planes, but also drop-in maintenance of Raven O-1 and U-17 aircraft, crash / battle damage repair to DEPCHIEF- managed T-28s, support services to the Khmer Air Force and a lot of other operation and maintenance services. But apart from the prices, section XIV dealing with “Flying Services for Government furnished UH-34 aircraft (Item 1)” is not much different from similar sections in earlier versions of the Madriver contract.3 So it can be assumed that the types of missions flown by Air America’s UH-34Ds were still more or less the same as those described for the pre-1968 period.

  • 1 GENERAL VANG PAO: a Review of Reputable Sources [15 May 2007]
    1 GENERAL VANG PAO: A Review of Reputable Sources [15 May 2007] by Alfred W. McCoy, Professor of Southeast Asian History, UW Madison In assessing the merits of the Madison School Board’s decision to name a school General Vang Pao, there are four factors that might give one pause--allegations that Vang Pao ordered summary executions, press reports that his army conscripted boy soldiers as young as 10 years old for combat, reports that his army’s command was involved in the Laos opium traffic, and press reports of financial fraud in Hmong-American welfare associations affiliated with him. In aftermath of the Vietnam War, books by authors ranging from the staunchly pro-Vang Pao Jane Hamilton-Merritt to Christian missionary William Smalley and commercial author Christopher Robbins have been unanimous in reporting that Vang Pao ordered extra-judicial executions of enemy prisoners, his own Hmong soldiers, and Hmong political opponents. All base these allegations, which have been repeated in recent press reports, on interviews with eyewitnesses, which include CIA operatives, American pilots for the CIA-owned Air America, and Hmong whose communities supported the CIA’s Secret Army. In the latter stages of the Vietnam War, 1971-73, General Vang Pao’s CIA army reportedly recruited children from ages 10 to 14 years-old to serve as boy soldiers in brutal combat with extraordinarily high casualties. Moreover, there are several sources, citing first-hand accounts from former CIA officials, alleging that the Secret Army’s command was involved in the Laos’s opium traffic, particularly in the transport of opium out of Hmong villages on the CIA’s airline Air America.
