U.S. 2014 Navy exercizes in Subic Bay, Philippines, and in Hawaii (Pacific Rim) signalling hope and wariness in U.S.-China relations
07/02/2014
China is participating with the U.S. in the Pacific Rim naval exercizes in Hawaii. At the same time the naval exercizes in the Philippines are intended to counter China's influence and territorial claims in the region. Japan's shift in interpretation of Article 9 of the Constitution to allow "collective self-defense" is also intended to counter China and ally N. Korea's missiles. The shift is approved by Japan's cabinet at about the same time as the naval exercizes. U.S. experts on China such as World Bank head Zoellick see peaceful development and cooperation but there is wariness following territorial claims and counter claims in the Pacific. South Korea remains wary of Japan but is also wary of China's ally N. Korea, and generally supports the U.S. efforts in the Pacific. The key is to manage tensions in a constructive way with cooperation and dialogue.

U.S. President Obama's trip to the Philippines, Malaysia, and Japan in 2014, to build relationships with allies in East Asia
04/28/2014
After the Russian takeover of the Crimea, the U.S. takes step to prevent a miscalculation by Beiijing about U.S. ties to Japan and its allies in the Asia-Pacific region. China declared a no-fly zone over parts of the seas bordering China without discussions with regional neighbors. The dispute over the Senkaku islands is also in the background, as the U.S. president reassures Japan about its support and treaty obligations. The Philippines called the U.S. back to naval facilities decades after the U.S. naval bases were vacated. This shows that the Obama administration's moves to remain inactive through the crises in Syria and other parts of the world may have emboldened Russia to take unilateral actions, and could lead to an accidental escalation as a result of this policy.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
