President Chen Shui-bian named former Premier Su Tseng-chang on Tuesday as his envoy to attend the funeral of Malawi's first lady. The wife of Malawian President Mutharika passed away on May 28.
Su will head a delegation to the southeast African country Thursday. The funeral is scheduled for Saturday.
This will be Su's second visit to Malawi, one of Taiwan's five diplomatic allies in Africa. His first visit was in July 2002 when he accompanied President Chen on a tour to Senegal, Sao Tome and Principe, Swaziland and Malawi.
