HOPE — How to achieve more happiness through practice

March 18, 2016 By Northwest Asian Weekly

By Assunta Ng Northwest Asian Weekly It may sound strange, but I had a revelation when I was in Hawaii last week — it was about how to practice experiencing happiness. “Sure, Assunta,” you say. “You are in Hawaii. That’s why you have time to ponder about happiness! Seriously, we can acquire happiness and satisfaction […]

BLOG: Attention: Mainstream restaurants — Don’t shame us. We just like family style

February 26, 2016 By Northwest Asian Weekly

By Assunta Ng Northwest Asian Weekly It’s funny, but nobody ever asks, “What’s your favorite ‘American’ restaurant?” Yet, many are dying to know my favorite Chinese or Asian restaurant.

BLOG: If you want to last, put yourself first! — My 2016 roadmap to de-stressing

January 14, 2016 By Northwest Asian Weekly

Did you smile or sigh when reflecting on 2015?

Many tend to glance at their bank balance, thinking of a nice new car or a house. Some think about job advancement or finding love. I wonder how many out there would count having good health as a wonderful gift? If you do, you are perhaps one of the few smart ones. Frankly, without health, we can’t do much. Other accomplishments would quickly be overshadowed when we are sick.

BLOG: The many faces of Cambodia (Part 3)

January 7, 2016 By Northwest Asian Weekly

Dispelling safety myths
“Is Cambodia safe?” Many readers asked me this after reading my first two blogs about my recent trip with my husband last November.
It is surprising that many have this misconception. While some may have concerns traveling to Cambodia, its tourism has actually increased 17 percent in 2013 and 7 percent last year. Just in Angkor, there are more than one million visitors every year.
