| Shedding Light on Exploitation | Chansanchai, Athima | Cassie Chinn, left, and May Ching prepare the "Women and Violence" exhibit, which opens tomorrow at the Wing Luke Asian Art Museum in Seattle. The exhibit, which runs through Sept. 4, focuses on the vulnerability and resilience of Asian-Pacific American women. Women and Violence exhibit part of the New Dialogues Initiative at the Wing Luke Asian Museum SEATTLE POST-INTELLIGENCER http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/visualart/220821_ncenter20.html Exhibit looks at violence against Asian women Wednesday, April 20, 2005 By ATHIMA CHANSANCHAI SEATTLE POST-INTELLIGENCER REPORTER As part of a new exhibition at the Wing Luke Asian Museum, empty jars will line the small gallery. Underneath each jar will be questions, including: "Have you ever known someone who is a victim of domestic violence?" and a pile of rocks. Visitors who answer yes are encouraged to put a rock in the jar. Organizers expect many full jars by the end of the five-month exhibition, "Women and Violence." Focusing on both the vulnerability and resilience of Asian-Pacific American women, it opens with a reception tomorrow and runs through Sept. 4. Videos and slide shows will accompany panels that take visitors through the terrain that leads to women becoming punching bags and commerce as the victims of domestic violence, sexual assault and human trafficking. Visitors will see how women are enslaved by war and how economic and workplace inequalities swing the pendulum of power toward abusers. Another room holds resources for becoming a survivor. Mannequins in the center of the room show outfits matching the most common exotic sexualized stereotypes that cling to Asian women in the United States: the Dragon Lady/Sexy China Doll, the Geisha, the Mail-Order Bride and the Hula Girl. All the outfits were ordered on eBay, said exhibit planner May Ching. The Mail-Order Bride features a white sundress briefly sold at Wal-Mart with "Return to Sender" and several World War II stamps on it. "You're confronted with the issues and how it manifests in society," said George Quibuyen, one of the exhibition coordinators. "It's not so much about the nature of victimhood. It's not a space to throw it back in their face." In the decade since a pregnant Susana Remerata was gunned down by her abusive husband in the King County courthouse, advocates of Asian immigrant women have come forward as empowered survivors trying to prevent further tragedy. "The community has a role to prevent it. The more education we do, the better. Domestic violence is still a taboo issue in the community, even though we've been doing this for 10 years," said Emma Catague, the program manager in community organizing for the Asian & Pacific Islander Women & Family Safety Center, which is one of the exhibit's two community partners. The other is the Seattle chapter of the Gabriela Network, an organization of U.S.-based Filipinas who focus on organizing, educating, networking and advocating around the trafficking of Filipinas through the "mail-order bride" industry, prostitution and forced labor migration. Catague, a survivor of domestic violence 30 years ago, added, "One of the reasons I want to speak up is to help others get out of their situation." "Violence on women is a serious crime and does not discriminate. This issue cuts across all lines of ethnicity, nationality, language, culture, economics, sexual orientation, physical ability, education level, and religion, and affects women from all walks of life," said Joann Natalia Aquino, Wing Luke's spokeswoman. "We hope that women affected by violence will know that there's a community out there they can turn to for support, assistance, resources and shelter. We want them to know that they are not alone." According to the Washington State Coalition Against Domestic Violence, 205 people were killed from 1997 to 2001 in the state in domestic violence-related homicides. Current or former boyfriends or husbands did most of the killing of women. Washington police departments responded to 51,550 domestic-violence calls in 2000, including homicides, rapes, assaults, robberies and arsons. "Asian immigrant women suffer at a greater risk," said Lan Phan, executive director of the Safety Center. "Asian culture is so focused on family. There's nobody you can talk to, there are language issues, lower socio-economic status and immigration status." All visitors need to do to understand the spirit of the exhibition is to look up at one of the quotes that will scroll on the gallery's walls. This by poet activist Audre Lorde: "I have come to believe over and over again that what is most important to me must be spoken, made verbal and shared, even at the risk of having it bruised or misunderstood." OPENING AND RECEPTION AT THE WING LUKE At 5:30 p.m. tomorrow, Wing Luke Asian Museum members and the public are invited to an exhibition opening and reception to commemorate the unveiling of the "Women and Violence" exhibit. The event is free. Light refreshments will be served. The Wing Luke Asian Museum is at 407 Seventh Ave. S. in Seattle's International District. To RSVP, call Joann Natalia Aquino, public relations manager, at jaquino@wingluke.org or 206-623- 5124, Ext. 106. The Wing Luke Asian Museum is also asking for old cell phones as part of the HopeLine program, a national program by Verizon Wireless to recycle cell phone. It benefits victims of domestic violence. A cell phone drop-off box will be available at the museum. Donors can also deposit used wireless handsets, which will be refurbished, recycled and/or sold, with all proceeds going to non-profit groups that help victims of domestic violence.

| Old Chinatown Attracts New Money | Ho, Vanessa | Ron Chew and his sons, Cian, 9, left, and Kino, 7, huddle as they hear noises from an old window shutter blowing outside one of the Kong Yick buildings yesterday. The building, constructed in 1910, was once a hotel for single men. The Wing Luke Asian Museum, where Chew works, plans to renovate it and turn it into a community showcase. Old Chinatown attracts new money Developer, museum step in to renovate four historic buildings Tuesday, April 26, 2005 By VANESSA HO SEATTLE POST-INTELLIGENCER REPORTER At Wholesome Vegetasia, a ground-floor restaurant in Seattle's Chinatown, bamboo plants and green tea provide urban serenity. But on the floor right above it, rows of ruined windows scream urban decay. At the Mon Hei Chinese bakery, it's the same thing: The downstairs bustles with customers buying pastries and coconut buns, while the upstairs sags with dark, vacant floors. "You walk up King Street at night and it's dreary. There's no lights above. There's no hustle and bustle," said Bob Santos, a longtime International District activist. Like many historic neighborhoods, Seattle's Chinatown has long suffered from blight and a split personality. Ground-level restaurants and shops attract chowhounds and curio seekers, but the skeletons of long-defunct hotels hover directly overhead. It's a phenomenon that dates back three decades. But for the first time in years, a private developer is planning to invest heavily in the neighborhood, with massive renovations planned for three decrepit buildings. The developer, James Koh, hopes to start construction next month. Also, the Wing Luke Asian Museum is moving into one of the 1910 Kong Yick buildings, with plans to turn the now-semi-vacant space into a sparkling community showcase. The changes are a welcome relief, if not entirely embraced. Many in the International District are adopting a wait-and-see attitude about the plans. "If nothing else, having (buildings) open will make a difference," said Sue Taoka, executive director of the Seattle Chinatown International District Preservation and Development Authority. "We just hope it's the right kind of development making a difference in the neighborhood." Others see the changes as just a start. Chinatown is a nationally registered historic district of just 12 blocks, but five of them are marred with at least one vacant, or semi-vacant, building. "It's been a persistent problem for our neighborhood," said Tom Im, a neighborhood planner with Inter*Im, a community development association in the area. But after awhile, the shuttered buildings -- and the graffiti and drug dealing that bloom around them -- become "ingrained in people's psyches," he said. In 2003, Koh bought three buildings in the heart of Chinatown: # The 1911 Milwaukee Hotel, which is empty upstairs. Koh wants to turn this into 113 market-rate apartment units. # The old Hong Kong restaurant building and Mar Hotel upstairs. Both sections are vacant. Koh wants to make this into commercial space with six top-floor apartments. # The 1910 Alps Hotel, where $300 a month at the dilapidated front desk buys guests cramped quarters with no bathroom. Koh wants to convert this into 117 market-rate units. "I want to see if we can make the place better, I guess," said Koh, who owns other properties around Seattle. Like other hotels in the area, Koh's buildings once housed hundreds of Asian cannery and railroad workers in the early 20th century. But after 20 people died in the downtown Ozark Hotel fire in 1970, the city enacted strict fire codes for single-room occupancy hotels. Many owners couldn't afford the changes, and shuttered their buildings. As the properties decayed, city officials and community developers tried to sway owners to fix them up. But most Chinatown owners have refused. "We cannot afford," said Tony Wong, president of the Hip Sing Association, a social club that owns a four-story building on Fourth Avenue South. The lower floors hum with businesses and clicking mah-jongg tiles, but the upper floors are tattered and dark. It would cost about $2.9 million to make the building livable, he said. Other owners are elderly and unwilling to sell, go into debt or endure reams of paperwork for any of the government-funded loans available to help them. They also can't tear down the buildings, because the historic district that governs the neighborhood won't allow it. Also, because immigrants often pooled money to build or buy buildings in the past, many properties still have multiple owners, making decisions difficult to orchestrate. Curtis Dong, whose 75-year-old father co-owns the defunct 1908 Eclipse Hotel on South Weller Street, has talked to his cousins about reopening the building as a vibrant place to live and work. But his father -- and his father's elderly siblings who also own the building -- aren't interested. It's too much money and work, they say. "We're talking about a really old generation," Dong said. "To them, they think, 'If we rehabilitate it, we'll never see the benefits.' They're from old school." Over the years, the city has dangled carrots for property owners, to no avail. The Department of Housing announced a $10 million low-interest loan program four years ago, aimed mostly at vacant or earthquake-damaged buildings in the International District and Pioneer Square. So far, the only loan made was $7 million to the Cadillac Hotel in Pioneer Square. The city's Office of Economic Development is now setting up a new $10 million loan pool to help projects in Southeast Seattle, the Central Area and the International District -- areas that haven't attracted much development. It's also looking into tax credits for developers in low-income areas. They'll be a tough sell in Chinatown. "What we're finding is the owners in the International District aren't enthusiastic about getting into a highly regulated fund source," said Bill Rumpf, the city's deputy housing director. Housing officials estimate there are between 500 and 600 empty single-room occupancy units in the International District. For them, that's potential for hundreds of units of new housing, which the neighborhood badly needs. "There's some hope," Taoka said. "As the next generation starts to take over the responsibility of these properties, they don't want to have on their conscience that they're slum landlords, or be the reason why the neighborhood is not thriving." She just hopes none of the buildings collapse before then. P-I reporter Vanessa Ho can be reached at 206-448-8003 or vanessaho@seattlepi.com ? 1998-2005 Seattle Post-Intelligencer |  |

Call 206-464-3113 or e-mail resale@seattletimes.com with your request. Day of rebirth, sorrow revisited By Florangela Davila Seattle Times staff reporter It's been 30 years since Bing Crosby's "White Christmas" echoed over the Saigon airwaves, signaling the U.S. evacuation of the besieged capital. Throngs of desperate South Vietnamese crowded the U.S. Embassy and lunged at departing Army helicopters fleeing the advancing communist troops. That same day, April 30, 1975, Phi Long Dang watched his father pull out a pistol and threaten to kill himself rather than live under a communist regime. What followed for Dang and his family was an odyssey shared by tens of thousands of South Vietnamese who found new lives in the United States. Thirty years ago tomorrow, South Vietnam, the place of Dang's birth, surrendered to North Vietnam. The day ? called Thang Tu Den, or "black April," by many ? is observed each year by Vietnamese refugees. How it's remembered underscores an ideological as much as a generational gap within the community. The date haunts many older Vietnamese, those who witnessed the war or spent years as political prisoners of the North Vietnamese. "We consider April 30 like our Holocaust day," says Pham Huy Sanh, 69, a retired South Vietnamese Army colonel who lives in Kent. "It's a day of sorrow for all the people we left behind." Sanh and others will attend a candlelight vigil tonight to mourn the loss of their country. They will also rally tomorrow to condemn communism. But younger Vietnamese Americans have planned a rally tomorrow to salute the arrival of Vietnamese in Washington 30 years ago, to thank the state for welcoming them and to recognize their own successes. "We want to make April 30th a day that doesn't cast a shadow, that's not about bitterness," says Thao Tran, 29, who works as a business-development officer in Rainier Valley. "We want to acknowledge our past, but acknowledge how far we've come." Local Vietnamese of both generations agree the 30-year mark should be acknowledged. They're no longer newcomers struggling to start over in a strange country, speaking a new language, seeking employment, raising families. Their community, they say, has come into its own, regardless of a split over issues like the war. Dang, now 40 and enjoying a middle-class life in Kent, bridges both generations. He can't help but respect those who have suffered under communism and those who have only the faintest memory of Vietnam. For 30 years, he listened to his father denounce communism, prohibiting the family from returning to the country for a visit. Even when his father neared death, he refused to return to the land of his birth. But like most Vietnamese refugees here, Dang has lived most of his life in this country. And he's hoping the next generation, including his young daughter, values its Vietnamese roots. "I told her I'd pay her $5 for every Vietnamese word she learns," Dang says about 8-year-old Sabrina Phi-Khanh, who is Vietnamese-Laotian-American. His payout thus far? "Twenty bucks," he laughs. Coded message By the time the communist tanks rolled into Saigon that April day, the United States had a plan to evacuate some South Vietnamese citizens along with U.S. personnel. The signal for the start of the evacuation was a coded message on U.S. Armed Forces Radio that included the repeated playing of "White Christmas." "Every time I hear the song, it makes me really sad," says Tam Nguyen, owner of Saigon Bistro in Seattle. Then-Gov. Dan Evans agreed Washington would accept 500 Vietnamese evacuated at the end of the war. "We ended up taking about 1,000," says Jeff Kibler, who worked at the U.S. Embassy in Saigon and helped with the evacuation. He now supervises the state's Refugee and Immigrant Program. During the next three decades, two more waves of refugees resettled in the United States, now home to 1.2 million Vietnamese and Vietnamese Americans. The greater Seattle Vietnamese community numbers 40,000, the sixth-largest regional population in the country. Leaving home Last Sunday, Dang sat in the Ben Le cafe in Rainier Valley. He had spent that morning at the nearby Thanh That Cao Dai temple, where he donned a white ao dai, or robe, and prayed. The temple anchors him to the larger Vietnamese community, and it especially binds him to the memory of his father, who was equally passionate about religion and politics. "Every New Year and every April 30, he'd make us sing all these Vietnamese songs," Dang says over coffee. Recalls Dang's brother Phi Van: "You know how some dads take their kids to the movies to spend time with them? My dad would take us to political events." Dang was 10 when President Duong Van Minh surrendered to the North Vietnamese. His father, then a local councilman, called to his eldest son, threatening to commit suicide. Dang and his family lived in South Vietnam's Ca Mau province, in a narrow house that also held a family-run bookstore. He'd cross the street to ring the bells at the Roman Catholic church and swam in a nearby river. He'd climb on his roof and collect pieces of shrapnel that rained down during the war. His mother, a nurse, persuaded her husband to put down his gun. One of her relatives was a communist official, a fact that might have saved his father's life, given his nationalist-party leanings. But nonetheless, his father spent the next three years detained in communist "re-education" camp. The Dang family fled Vietnam in 1979, in a patrol boat packed with 30 other people. A Spokane church sponsored the family's resettlement. They arrived April 23. "Cold, empty, spread out," Dang recalls about his new home. During the summers, both parents and all five children picked berries in Oregon. His father assembled electronics; his mother cooked in Chinese restaurants. The parents' mantra to their children: You need to go to school. You need to be somebody. "When my parents came to this country, they had no idea what we could accomplish," Dang says. Eventually his parents opened an Asian grocery and watched Dang graduate from high school and enroll in college. After two years, Dang dropped out because of his family's financial troubles. The family lost its store. Money had run out and Dang took a job in an Alaska fish cannery, which turned into a 17-year-career, including stints as a manager. Thirty years after the war, Saigon is called Ho Chi Minh City and diplomatic relations between the United States and Vietnam have been normalized. There's a U.S.-Vietnam trade agreement. U.S. Navy ships have docked in Vietnam's ports. Last December, United Airlines became the first U.S. airline in 30 years to offer direct service to the country. Visits to Vietnam by former refugees have reunited families or have introduced them to the country of their parents. "The sheer commercialism was unbelievable," says Dawn-Thanh Nguyen, 34, of Seattle, who visited in 2003. Fancy store fronts. Sweet fruits that tasted like moist cakes. Buying gingered tofu by running out onto a hotel balcony and hollering to a woman on the street below. But the decision to make the trip, just like the war or current Vietnamese politics, divides the community. "There's still a strong anti-communist sentiment," said Linda Vo, a professor of Asian American Studies at the University of California, Irvine. "People don't want it known that they've visited or have any business relationship with the country because that might mean you support the Vietnamese government." For example, when three artists from Vietnam visited Seattle earlier this year, they earned the disdain of some local Vietnamese who called for protests. The rift is acutely visible now as the community plans ways to mark tomorrow. "I can understand how one group can be bitter and one group can be carefree. But at the end of the day, they're all Vietnamese," says Tam Nguyen, the local restaurateur. Phi Long Dang admires the economic progress Vietnam has made and says he hasn't had time to visit the country, a trip he begged his father to make when he was diagnosed with cancer. He offered to pay, but his father refused. Kim Dang died two years ago. So rather than accepting his father's politics, Phi Long embraces his father's faith and tries not to work on Sundays so he can attend temple. "The older you get, the more you go back to your roots. When I come here, I feel like the whole community supports me," he says about the Cao Dai temple. Dang doesn't plan to attend either anniversary event tomorrow, but not for political reasons. He plans to work at his new job, selling cars at an automobile dealership, Toyota of Seattle. Seattle Times researcher Gene Balk contributed to this report.

| A Fateful Day for Vietnamese | Chansanchai, Athima | SEATTLE POST-INTELLIGENCER http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/local/222371_saigon30.html It's a fateful day for Vietnamese: 30 years since Saigon's fall Saturday, April 30, 2005 By ATHIMA CHANSANCHAI SEATTLE POST-INTELLIGENCER REPORTER Seattle actress Khanh Doan wasn't yet born when the South Vietnamese capital of Saigon fell at the hands of the North Vietnamese army 30 years ago today, signaling the end of nearly three decades of conflict in the war-torn country. Her father, a South Vietnamese infantryman, was placed in a re-education camp. She didn't meet him until she was 8 years old. Not until she joined the cast of the 5th Avenue Theatre's "Miss Saigon" did her emotions about the anniversary surface. "To my parents, the fall of Saigon was the start of a lot of hardship," she said. Since the end of World War II, the small Southeast Asian country had been beset by civil war, division in 1954, and both communist and Western -- French and U.S. -- forces throwing military might into campaigns that cost the lives of nearly 60,000 American soldiers and an estimated 3 million Vietnamese. The day the United States pulled out of its embassy in Saigon -- April 30, 1975 -- was the end of one life and the beginning of an exodus. Scenes from those last days made their way onto television screens halfway around the world: families fleeing in anything with wheels or rudders, parents tearfully pushing their children into the arms of strangers, fire in the streets and a desperate crowd clambering over embassy walls. Doan and others in the Seattle area's Vietnamese American community -- the third-largest in the country at more than 80,000 -- reflected on the anniversary with the Seattle Post-Intelligencer. Among their voices: a former naval officer who spent three years in prison after Saigon fell, a housewife who saw the disintegration of her country, a real estate agent who hopes other Vietnamese Americans build on their parents' sacrifices, and a high school girl born in Vietnam long after the communist takeover. Khanh Doan, 29, actress, an ensemble cast member in "Miss Saigon" The only full Vietnamese member of the 5th Avenue Theatre's "Miss Saigon" cast, Doan moved to Seattle about a year and a half ago. She wasn't even born when her father, a South Vietnamese infantryman, was placed in a re-education camp. She was 8 when she met her father, who found her and her mother in San Diego after years of imprisonment and searching. "I had a lot of prejudices about the show before I did it. But the director, David Bennett, really wanted to tell the story. He did a lot of research and had people talk to us, had us watch videos. It was really emotional for me. It brought up things I hadn't felt, especially thinking about my mom and what my parents went through. It was the first time it was in my face. I cried every day. "They don't think about going back to Vietnam. They feel like they'd be strangers there, going back as tourists. "Before the show, I never thought about the anniversary. To my parents, the fall of Saigon was the start of a lot of hardship. "Doing this show makes you remember this is based in history and it makes you want to portray the characters with as much truth and honesty as you can. "Vietnam is always associated with the war. Vietnam equals war. I don't want to stop people from talking about the war, but I want there to be other things. We should nurture our talents to create new material." Kim Pham, 54, publisher and editor- in-chief of Nguoi Viet, weekly Northwest Vietnamese newspapers Pham came to Seattle in 1979 after spending three years in jail because he was a naval press officer for South Vietnam. "The reason we are refugees is because we escaped and we want them to change, too, to have a better life. I feel like one of the songs in 'Miss Saigon': We don't forget the past, but we need to move on. "But with my generation, it's very difficult to tell them to move on. It's a very sensitive and emotional thing. There was pain and panic. It was very difficult to withdraw. "We can't stay here and wish someday that the communists will fall down. But there are so many factions here. We need to be like a family when they have a guest -- respect the family and don't fight with other guests." Tiffany Bui, 40, Bothell housewife, mother of three Bui is about the same age her widowed mother was when she fled from Vietnam with 11 children in tow. "The 'fall of Saigon' for me came way before April 30, 1975. It came when as a child of 10 in South Vietnam in '75, I helped my mother feed and take care of people fleeing the war from the North. We didn't have much but it was more than they had, and Mother never could say no to people in need. I remember humongous pots of soups and pots and pots of rice. We even housed a famous Vietnamese movie star. "It came when my second-oldest brother came through the front door and collapsed in my arms, scratched up and exhausted. He had lost most of his platoon and barely made it out of the jungle with his life with the help of strangers and a tart, bitter fruit that he still had in his hand. I witnessed him tell his friend's sister that her brother was dead. Her cries haunted me for years. "There's a legend in my family that an old uncle had seen a vision of a yellow star and a red star fighting and that the red one gobbled up the yellow one. "We left on a fishing boat and then went onto a barge. They were all scared and terrified. I remember there were a lot of well-dressed city folk with lots of luggage. All my mom grabbed were clothes, family china we still have, some of my dad's mementos, a stamp collection, pictures and Vietnamese money. On the big international boats, people would climb on each other in mobs. The sides broke and people fell over into the water. "To me, what I went through that day -- as harried as it was for a child of 10 -- was a walk in the park compared to what others went through. As a parent now, I can't imagine sending my child with total strangers. I can't say that day really scarred my soul. For a good number of us, it meant a bump up in our economic status. It gave us opportunities we wouldn't have if we had stayed. It was a blessing in disguise, which sounds horrible to say because so many lives were totally ruined." Casey Bui, 32, real estate agent, Tiffany Bui's brother-in-law and member of the Unity of Vietnamese Americans Committee Born just outside of Saigon, Bui was the second-youngest of 11 children. Before his family left on a military plane a couple of days after Saigon fell, his eldest brother was captured by North Vietnamese troops. The family settled in Oregon, with his father, a South Vietnamese army officer, starting over as a custodian at a local high school to support his children. "It's refreshing for me to find Vietnamese Americans my age who feel as passionately as I do about our community and not wanting to forget some of the sacrifices our parents and grandparents have made, and not squandering opportunities we've had. "As much hardship and obstacles we all have in our lives, this is still a country people literally died to get into. "If I don't give back to my community with that privilege, part of me feels that I have not taken advantage of the blessings I've been given." Thanh Vo, singer and Cingular Wireless systems analyst A budding singer when she fled Vietnam in 1982, Vo built a new fan base in Seattle after she arrived in 1988. (She lived in the Philippines and California in-between.) Her latest CD, "Khi Xa Sai Gon," or "After Saigon," was released for this anniversary. "I actually find myself dealing with a mixed set of emotions: both pride and disappointment. Pride that heroes were made by the sacrifice to liberate a country. Disappointment in the situation that made the sacrifice necessary. "I will never forget the arrival of the communists and the difficult years that followed. "With this pain in my heart, no matter what people keep saying about the country being better now, I still do not believe it. "I try to use my feelings to propel myself forward. The past can be both a driving force or an anchor." Chris and Kelly Brownlee, both 30 Vietnamese adoptees who came to the United States through Operation Babylift, they met at the 25th fall of Saigon anniversary in Baltimore in 2000, where the seeds of a cross-country romance for Bostonian Chris and Seattleite Kelly were first sown. They have a daughter, Lily, who is 17 months old. Chris: "It is a sad day, but in this time of passing and mourning we should take a look at how much our community has been able to accomplish. We should not look at how much we've lost and really cherish how much we've done. "One day out of the year, we can put our differences aside. This is a really important day for all of us to be equally represented and find our own collective voice." Thuc Chi Nguyen, 15, sophomore at Evergreen High School Thuc Chi was born in 1989 in Ban Me Thuot, southern Vietnam. She left Vietnam with her family in 1994 and settled in Seattle. Her father was a lieutenant during the war. "The first thing I think about when I think about the fall of Saigon is that it is the reason I am here today in America. Because Vietnam is under a communist government, my parents wanted our family to come over here for more opportunities." IF YOU GO The Fall of Saigon 2005: A Day of Remembrance and Hope will be held today. It starts at 11 a.m. with a gathering at Seattle's Union Station, 401 S. Jackson St., featuring Vietnamese refugees, war veterans and representatives from the Vietnamese American community. They will march to City Hall and hold a rally at 12:30 p.m. P-I reporter Athima Chansanchai can be reached at 206-448-8041 or athimachansanchai@seattlepi.com ? 1998-2005 Seattle Post-Intelligencer | |

| The Pacific Century | Series surveys the last 150 years of economic and political development in the Pacific Basin, and the connections between the nations of eastern Asia and the United States. 1. The Two Coasts of China: Asia and the Challenge of the West Discusses the clash of Western and Chinese cultures as China's ports were transformed into trading centers and technological advances displaced traditional ways of working and living. As a result of China's slowness to change, her power and influence over the Pacific theater quickly diminished, and Japan stepped into the forefront. Stories of the Mongol Invasions, Opium Wars and the Boxer Rebellion are recreated using original production footage shot in Mongolia, China, Japan and Southeast Asia. 2. The Meiji Revolution Discusses the clash of Western and Chinese cultures as China's ports were transformed into trading centers and technological advances displaced traditional ways of working and living. As a result of China's slowness to change, her power and influence over the Pacific theater quickly diminished, and Japan stepped into the forefront. Stories of the Mongol Invasions, Opium Wars and the Boxer Rebellion are recreated using original production footage shot in Mongolia, China, Japan and Southeast Asia. 3. From the Barrel of a Gun Describes the revolution began by Asia's political leaders following WW II. Shows how the Pacific war, the cultural revolution in China and the Vietnam War stem from the roots of nationalism. The end of colonial dominance and the subsequent rise of nationalism and communism are told through the lives of Ho Chi Minh, The Vietnamese revolutionary, and Sukarno, the founding father of Indonesia. 4. Writers and Revolutionaries The lives of Lu Xun, China's greatest modern writer, and Kita Ikki, the famous Japanese philosopher, are highlighted. Both revolutionaries explored the traditional strengths and weaknesses of their societies, with Lu Xun writing scathing satires aimed at China's ineffective leadership. Kita Ikki, on the other hand, watched with alarm as his radical teachings were distorted by right wing extremists and used to design a monstrous blueprint for a Japanese world empire. Details how China became vulnerable to the threat of the encroaching Japanese. 5. Reinventing Japan Describes the allied relationship that developed between the U.S. and Japan following WW II. Set to the sounds of big band jazz, the program tells the stories of real men and women--both American and Japanese--who lived through the Occupation. Reveals the unexpected results of America's ambitious efforts to mold Japan into its own image and analyzes the astonishing present-day consequences. 6. Inside Japan, Inc. Examines the economic miracle of post-war Japan and the increasing tensions between Japan and the United States because of Japan's resolve to control its own economic destiny. 7. Big Business and the Ghost of Confucius Describes the economic success stories of Taiwan, South Korea and Singapore. Examines how these newly industrialized countries moved to the forefront of the world economy so rapidly. Examines the role played by America and Confucian beliefs in shaping the successful formula for East Asian capitalism and grapples with the question of the role of government in economic growth. Presents profiles and interviews of politicians and business leaders like former Prime Minister of Singapore, Lee Kuan Yew, and the chairman of South Korea's Hyundai Corp. 8. The Fight for Democracy Documents the struggle for democracy in South Korea. Discusses South Korea's economic development and the government's policies, including loans to companies such as Hyundai, where the lifting of the government ban on unions led to conflict with workers. The documentary examines Korea's political history from its beginnings through Japanese occupation, the Korean War, the uprising in Kwangju in 1980, and the massive protests of 1987, to the present. Analyzes historical Anti-American attitudes and today's grassroots political movements. 9. Sentimental Imperialists: America in Asia Examines the stereotypic attitudes of Westerners towards Asia from 1776 to the present. Presents specific case studies of the U.S. relationships with China and the Philippines. 10. The Pacific Century: The Future of the Pacific Basin Confronts the economic, political, and cultural challenges that must be faced to secure America's future as a global player in the Pacific Basin region. | ||

| The Big AIIIEEEEE!: An Anthology of Chinese American and Japanese Amiercan Literature | Chan, Jeffery Paul, Frank Chin, Lawson Fusao Inada, and Shawn Wong, eds | When the first volume of this collection of Asian American literature appeared in 1974, it showed readers the roots and richness of Chinese American and Japanese American writing. The authors called their anthology Aiiieeeee! because that was the shout, the scream, often the only sound coming from the yellow man or woman in American movies, television, or comic books. But as that work demonstrated, the Asian American writer, long ignored and excluded from participating in American culture, has an articulate and creative voice. | |
