Description
Sound recording of a radio program called "Window on the World," produced by the United States Information Service (USIS) in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The speaker is Tarzie Vittachi. Vittachi reflects on the assassination of President John F. Kennedy and reactions of leaders and citizens in Asia and worldwide. Vittachi also discusses relations between India, China, and other countries. The recording seems to end abruptly. A brief segment from a Voice of America (VOA) program called "Reporter at Large" follows the program. The date "9/7/63" is written on the tape box label [not the correct date of the "Window on the World" program]. Accession MR-1984-015.
