Chinese Americans
A poll was conducted of 354 Chinese Americans who were chosen at random nationwide by from a surname list.
They were asked a series of questions about their attitudes toward China and their views on China and US-China Relations.
Question 30:
What field or profession would you like to see Chinese-Americas make greater gains in?
4. Education/Academia – 9% want to teach
3. Business/corporate – 14% want to use their MBAs
2. Science/technology – 14% want to hide out in a lab somewhere
1. Government/Public Service – 46% want to make decisions that affect them and the rest of us…more than the other three groups put together.
There is no reason why Asian-Americans can’t get involved in politics…but, I can’t imagine for the life of me why they would want to.
What do you think?
These survey results were taken from a poll conducted by the Committee of 100.
The Committee of 100 is a national, nonpartisan organization composed of prominent American citizens of Chinese descent. The members of this group pool their resources to address important issues that concern the Chinese/American community but, Imho, more importantly, foster better US-Greater China relations.
Recently, this group task the polling firm ZOGBY to conduct an extensive survey of American Attitudes Toward China.
They polled the General Population (General Public) as well as Chinese Americans. Business leaders, Opinion leaders and Congressional staffers, subsets of the general public were also polled.
In keeping with the Committee of 100 ideas, I hope it will create discussion and be used to better understand U.S.-China relations and help those concerned to formulate recommendations on how to improve relationships between these two great countries.
