Daniels planning fall trade mission to Asia

The Associated Press

INDIANAPOLIS — Gov. Mitch Daniels says he's planning to make another trade mission to Japan and other Asian nations this fall.

Daniels told reporters during a news conference Tuesday that the dates and the destinations of the trade mission have not been determined yet, but it will include Japan and probably China.

The governor led an Indiana delegation of about 50 people, including several mayors and business leaders, on a two-week trade mission to China and Japan last September.

Daniels has made three other trips to Japan since taking office in 2005. He also traveled to Germany and Great Britain in 2007.
