February 27, 2014 By Northwest Asian Weekly

The future is wide open for Ambassador Gary Locke, who will be returning home from China in March.

Locke is quiet, almost nerdy, and more concerned with achievable successes than flamboyant glory. It’s an […]

September 21, 2012 By Northwest Asian Weekly

By Assunta Ng My heart sank when I saw the news that the U.S. Ambassador to Libya, Christopher Stevens, had been killed in an attack on the Libyan U.S. consulate Tuesday, Sept. 11.
