EDITORIAL: Good news, good cheer — A “happy” list from 2015

December 24, 2015 By Northwest Asian Weekly

There is no discounting that the International District/Chinatown had to deal with tragedy this year with the loss of neighborhood superman Donnie Chin.

Will Okamoto run again?

May 22, 2015 By Northwest Asian Weekly

By Peggy Chapman Northwest Asian Weekly Councilmember John Okamoto invited the ethnic media for a question-and-answer session May 15.

May 7, 2015 By Northwest Asian Weekly

By Assunta Ng Seattle City Councilmember Kshama Sawant’s inappropriate and unfair questioning of John Okamoto (now voted in as a councilmember) during the public interview to fill in Sally Clark’s seat, gave me a revelation—the importance of respect.

EDITORIAL: Spring cleaning

May 7, 2015 By Northwest Asian Weekly

There is a bit of spring in our step here at the Northwest Asian Weekly. Looking over the past few months, there are many things the Asian American community in Seattle should be proud of. Not necessarily “cleaning” but perhaps “beaming.” So what has been accomplished? — Yay for Okamoto!: John Okamoto was elected to […]
