Asians United Means Esigns Power By Tiffany ChangIn this 21st Century new era and society, we need economic growth, but we need also to establish and promote creativity, fairness, and justice, service and love, educational knowledge, and spirit engineering. The paralleled practice of both the positive thinking and love in action, through the skills with personal traits such as optimism, enthusiam, belief, intelligence, creativity, judgment, liveliness, vision, courage, desire to excel, and persistence, will help people pursue a richer, happier, and successful life. It is a general understanding that, if we are able to excel in a particular field of professional career, we will definitely have a better chance of gaining a foodhold into society. Personal accomplishments often win the approval from society for the entire ethnic (or Asian) group. For example: (1) U. S. Secretary of Labor Elaine Chao's successful work performance in administrative and social accomplishment as an official arising from her many years of community service and charity endeavor. (2) Dr. Tien Choung Lin (in Chinese), who successfully accomplished a great deal for U. C. Berkeley for many years as its President because of his academic acheivement and community participation. It is also important for our Asian community to understand that: Outstanding professional accomplishments enhanced with good community service is a practical and sincere way for us to integrate into American society and win the recognition by our mainstream society and American people. We are already a minority even as a whole Asian community, let alone the Chinese, Philippines, Japanese, Korean, Thai, and others. We do not have any asset left for us to defeat each other. What strength of a voice to the mainstream for our brothers and sisters will be remained with us, if each and every of our Asian American communities to have our leaders defeat each other? United we stand, divided we fall. We should support the accomplishment and status of any of our successful individual to increase our voice and influence in this country. Could we not learn something from the support of African Americans that help make Colin Powell's appointment and leadership more stable as the Secretary of State? Wake up! We Asian Americans! We need people like John Ensign and Elaine Chao for our great America. Some people are of the "tell me what you wear, tell me what kind of car you drive, tell me what cards you carry, and I'll tell you who you are" culture. What do the people we admire have in common? These individuals have faith, respect and love, unabashed love. Love always transcends itself. In its purest form, love is unconditional and an appreciation. The Greeks had a saying: "People are known by the heroes they crown." Tell me whom you admire, and I will tell you who you are. Your choice of heroes reveals your personal traits. "By the action of love itself, we are enriched. Love in action is service above self. Make service a part of your character and experience the abundant reward that comes from serving others. Let your heroes be the great servants who have given all for the betterment of others' lives. Let your candle fuel a fire that will fan out an ever-increasing circles. With these circles together we can close our eyes and envision a community that is safe, peaceful, and healthy," said Dr. Tony Lei who has been honored as the Honorary President of Great Wall College recently. Great Wall College in Chynan, China emphasizes the importance of international trade and economy, English language, and information and business management. Dr. Archie Chang, many years as the California high-ranking officer of U. S. Department of Education, is the President. | |
