LETTER: Protect victimized, vulnerable, voiceless immigrant wives

April 27, 2018 By Northwest Asian Weekly

By Yoichiro Yamada Consul General of Japan in Seattle (This was first published in The Seattle Times on April 19, 2018). The #MeToo movement has shown us the great injustice to women taking place throughout the world. Yet there is another form of abuse against women of which I have recently come to know: The […]

LETTER: Reader praises mobile park closing coverage

April 13, 2018 By Northwest Asian Weekly

Dear Editor, I thoroughly enjoyed the enlightenment from your article “Clock runs out in Olympia on bill to aid SeaTac Area mobile home residents” (March 16, 2018) because it presents an all too common scenario in Washington state, where county government doesn’t give a damn about the lives of working class people of Latino heritage. […]

LETTER: Reader pushes for diversity in M’s broadcasting

March 30, 2018 By Northwest Asian Weekly

Dear Editor, Each year for four years, I have provided the Seattle Mariners with the concern that the M’s broadcast team does not reflect the faces of the community it serves — considering the diversity of our team, the fans in the stands, and the greater community surrounding Safeco field that attend the games and […]

LETTER: Reader response to mobile park closing story

March 23, 2018 By Northwest Asian Weekly

Dear Editor, Reporter Jason Cruz might want to consider checking in with other elected officials and the homeowners themselves, before offering a one-sided story regarding the fate of owners of manufactured homes who reside at the Firs mobile home park in SeaTac. (Clock runs out in Olympia, March 16, 2018.) Mr. Cruz ought to have […]

LETTER: Reader feedback on Feb. 24 issue

March 16, 2018 By Northwest Asian Weekly

Dear Editor, I like to grab your paper each week for some articles the mainstream media largely forgets, plus the sudoku puzzle helps pass a bit more time in my day. But you should be more judicious with your editing, because the Feb. 24 issue had some colossally moronic editorials. First you had a nigh-worthless […]

LETTER: Open letter to Golden West College

March 16, 2018 By Northwest Asian Weekly

By Bettie Sing Luke Multicultural diversity trainer Seattle A very disturbing anti-Asian incident was brought to my attention and verified by the LA Times in a March 5th article. This offensive encounter occurred in Long Beach, Calif., where an Asian American couple, Tony Kao and his wife, and daughter, were subjected to an unprovoked verbal […]

LETTER: Asian American youth at the Olympics

February 23, 2018 By Northwest Asian Weekly

To the Editor, As I watched the American athletes enter the Pyeongchang stadium for the Parade of Nations, I picked out faces under wool hats with dark brown, almond-shaped eyes set in faces framed with straight jet-black hair. The names that go with these faces — Chen, Zhou, Nagasu, the Shibutanis, Hong, Kim, another Chen, […]

COMMENTARY: Reader responds to A-pop column

February 9, 2018 By Northwest Asian Weekly

Dear Editor, This is regarding the December 2017 A-pop column. The Kanji that appears in the movie Blade Runner 2049 could be Japanese, as the writer assumes — though being that Kanji means “Chinese characters,” it could also be from China, the most populous nation in the history of the planet — if the writer […]

LETTER: Reader concerned about proposed cell phone transmitters

January 5, 2018 By Northwest Asian Weekly

I read with dismay about the Moriguchis’ plan to grant access to the rooftop on the Publix Apartments to install cellular panel antennae and peripheral cell transmitters. I share the concern of the ‘concerned citizen’ who resides in the ID/Chinatown, who wrote about this matter. I just called the Uwajimaya administrative office to voice my […]

LETTER: Reader gives input on SPD diversity dispute

December 29, 2017 By Northwest Asian Weekly

Dear Editor, I wish that Mr. Irigon had gotten his wish to have appointed an Asian Pacific Islander to Seattle Police Command, but I am not persuaded that Chief Kathleen O’Toole’s response to unanimous recommendations should not brighten the day of a woman who faces what she often calls “very difficult” and “no-win” decisions. I […]
