LETTER: Reader displeased with Asian Weekly coverage

July 12, 2019 By Northwest Asian Weekly

Dear Editor, Your reporter, Mahlon Meyer, truly botched up the reporting of last month’s kick-off event for the proposed Chinatown Surveillance Project. Over the past decade, the Seniors in Action Foundation (SIAF), led by founder Nora Chan, has been the driving force in implementing effective and proven measures to improve public safety in Chinatown. Once […]

July 12, 2019 By Northwest Asian Weekly

LETTER: Community sounds off on CCTV proposal

July 12, 2019 By Northwest Asian Weekly

Dear Editor, I take exception to the fear mongering that Mahlon Meyer tried to evoke in his article “Halfway to $300k Goal” in the June 29-July 5, 2019 issue of the Northwest Asian Weekly. The original surveillance system cameras have proven their worth to law enforcement and local businesses. Of the many examples, I cite […]

LETTER: Community sounds off on CCTV proposal

July 12, 2019 By Northwest Asian Weekly

Dear Editor, Electronic surveillance is an unwise and unconstitutional solution to a human problem in the Seattle Chinatown-ID. Electronic surveillance is an invasion of privacy. We must resist. Yes, the C-ID has problems with street crime, loitering, poverty, relentless gentrification, graffiti, safety, and the biggest challenge to the C-ID: the overall lack of respect and […]

In response to the Chinese language controversy at Duke University

February 8, 2019 By Northwest Asian Weekly

The Chinese-speaking controversy at Duke University has revealed a shallow outlook towards Chinese foreign students. The actions of Duke’s biostatistics faculty, while admirably well-intended, were founded on the uninformed assumptions of outsiders.

LETTER: Washington’s Vietnamese legislators decry Trump actions

December 21, 2018 By Northwest Asian Weekly

As the first Vietnamese American elected state legislators, we are outraged by the current administration’s attempt to re-negotiate the 2008 Memo of Understanding between the United States and Vietnam. This MOU established the protected status for Vietnamese refugees arriving the U.S. before 1995. As Vietnamese refugees, we experienced first-hand the political reasons to seek refuge […]
