1. (C) Per reftels, post has devised a notional itinerary for

3. (C) Note: the Ministry of Foreign Affairs raised a
scheduling issue mid-day on August 16 ) that the proposed
Wednesday, August 23, morning appointment with the President,
First vice President, and/or Vice President likely would not
occur earlier that 9:00 a.m., thus arguing for a revised
departure time of 11:00 a.m. or 12:00 p.m.


4. (C) Comment: The visit to the Al-Salaam IDP camp involves
a brief visit to projects on the periphery of the area. The
visit will not involve welcoming ceremonies or other
functions involving large numbers of people. In the event
there are crowds, the motorcade will bypass sites. Visitors
will be kept relatively close to the vehicles to permit rapid
departure should events so dictate.
