December 8, 2011 By Northwest Asian Weekly

A note about SYLP from Publisher Ng

August 19, 2010 By Northwest Asian Weekly

         Breaking the mould for Asian American youth   What do you do with high-achieving students who are bad leaders?   I am not blaming parents. We, as parents, lack awareness of the importance of leadership because of how we were raised — not to lead, but to be great students so that […]

Blog: 0.5 Asians out of 9 on Seattle’s city council

January 21, 2010 By Northwest Asian Weekly

The other day, I had lunch in the ID with a couple of political gurus. “We have only 0.5 Asians on the Seattle City Council,” complained one of them.
She was referring to Seattle City Councilmember Bruce Harrell, who is half Japanese and half African American. This can also be applied to the Black community — now there are only 0.5 Blacks on the council (Seattle City Councilmember Richard McIver retired last December).
