Spiritualists to help find Vietnam's MIAs

Yesterday, 3-1-08, while surfing I had the BBC TV on a video player, BBC World came on with a report about the search for Vietnamesse MIA's, still going on after all these years after the American Invasion of that country.

It was a really interesting mini doc. A search of the site doesn't bring it up, apparently soon we may be able to view these reports, site says something about a beta program being developed for archived shows and reports.

But I did find this report from 2000 on the same subject matter:

The government in Vietnam has turned to spiritual advisers to help find the remains of Vietnamese people killed during the War which ended twenty-five years ago.

The Chief of the Scientific Anticipation Unit, in the Research Centre for the Hidden Abilities of Vietnamese People, said the organisation had been asked to take part in the search.

The official Nguyen Phuc Giac Hai said three experts were searching for people missing-in-action, known as MIAs, and they were capable of finding up to twenty sets of remains each day.

Correspondents say Vietnam has three-hundred-thousand MIAs, and many people believe in the ability of the spiritualists to provide detailed maps of the location of the remains of their loved-ones. The return of American MIAs has also been a major issue in improving bilateral relations.


The report yesterday, a mini doc, was more indepth and aired for about a half hour

The Remnants of War, Especially Wars of Choice!!
