Drastically decreased of Chinese politicians got elected in San Francisco. Chinese-Americans votes, let’s look at the numbers 華裔政客在舊金山當選人數大幅減少. 美國華裔投票,看數字. By Johnson Choi, Nov 18 2022
Chinese-American voters accounted for 2%, 58% voted for the Democratic Party, and 42% voted for the Republican Party. After the cancellation out votes, net 16% of the 2% went to the Democratic Party was only .32%.
Let’s us use one million votes as an example, 2% is 20,000 votes, 58% votes Democrat or 11,600 votes, 48% votes Republican or 8,400 votes, after cancellation out, Democrats get only 3,200 votes or .32%.
Most elections are decided by 2-5%. In some cities in the US like San Francisco, Chinese-Americans accounts for 20% of the population. If we use the Japanese-Americans winning formula in Hawaii last 50 years, 80% of the votes go to one political party, then the Chinese can control the politics of San Francisco. Unfortunately What’s wrong is that the Chinese are not united, splitting the votes, and can’t play pivotal role like the Japanese-Americans in Hawaii as a kingmaker in politics.
If you are not kingmakers, you have no say in American politics. All you have done is a cheerleader.

The region shouldn’t become an “arena for a big power contest,” the Chinese president says. 21st century belongs to the Asia-Pacific – Xi Jinping 中國國家主席說,亞洲不應成為“大國較量的競技場”. 21世紀屬於亞太 – 習近平
Chinese President Xi Jinping said on Thursday that the Asia-Pacific area was “no one’s backyard,” urging for greater regional cooperation on development and security. Xi’s statement was made in written remarks to the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in Thailand and released shortly after he arrived there.
“The Asia-Pacific … should not become an arena for a big power contest,” Xi said, adding that, “No attempt to wage a new cold war will ever be allowed by the power or by our times.”
According to him, any attempt to disrupt or even dismantle the industrial and supply chains formed in the Asia-Pacific over many years will only lead the region’s economic cooperation to a dead end.
“The 21st century is the Asia-Pacific century … We, members of this region, have come a long way in pursuing economic development, and we will surely write an even more brilliant chapter in the years ahead,” Xi stressed.
The Chinese leader put forward a six-point proposal in this regard, namely bolstering the foundation for peaceful development, taking a people-centered development approach, pursuing greater levels of openness, striving for higher-standard connectivity, building stable and unimpeded industrial and supply chains, as well as promoting economic development.
The Asia-Pacific region accounts for around 60% of the world’s population and almost 50% of global economic output. One of the fastest-growing parts of the world, it is widely viewed as a hub of global trade.
According to last month’s report by the S&P Global Market Intelligence, Asia-Pacific economies will dominate global growth in the upcoming year. S&P predicted the region will achieve real growth of roughly 3.5% in 2023, while Europe and the US will likely face recession.
