Asian American Immigration CHINESE MIGRATION Beginning in the 1980s, we have been one of the fastest growing immigrant groups here in the United States. A 1952 Immigration and Nationality Act began to eliminate some of the anti-Asian racism. The act reunified families, protected the domestic labor force, and called for immigration of people with needed skills. It also made us eligible for citizenship, which we had long been waiting for. The 1965 Immigration Act abolished the national-origins quota system and created an annual quota of 20,000 of us Asians. Therefore, the amount of immigrants increased drastically as time progressed. STEREOTYPES Almost ninety percent of Chinese immigrants were women between 1946 and 1952. About 348,000 of us came here from Hong Kong and Taiwan between 1941 and 1980. Beginning in 1981, the number of immigrants increased coming from the mainland as opposed to coming from Hong Kong and Taiwan. We reached a population of 1.6 million people between 1980 and 1990. By the mid-1990s we were approximately one-third of all Asian Americans. As Chinese Americans, we are often mistaken for Vietnamese or Korean Americans. In 1994, Asian Americans were thought of as foreigners who consistently competed for jobs. We have been stereotyped as "model minorities" because we are ambitious and hard working.

Asian Perspectives on Asian Americans Plenary session introduced by J. D. Hokoyama President and Executive Director, L.E.A.P. MODERATOR Robert B.

E. Maleeha Lodhi Pakistani Ambassador to the United States H. E. Nitya Pibulsonggram Thai Ambassador to the United States Panelists covered a broad range of topics on how Asians view Asian Americans, such as: perceptions of Asian Americans in Asia, homeland media coverage of Asian Americans, role of homeland government in addressing Asian American issues, the economic effect of Asian Americans on their homeland economies, and effect of U.S. and Asian political relations on Asian Americans. According to moderator Robert Oxnam, broader dialogue is needed between Asian Americans and other ethnic communities as well as between Asian Americans and Asians. Panelists covered a broad spectrum of topics, ranging from Asian perceptions and media coverage of Asian Americans to the roles of Asian governments in addressing their needs. Most panelists suggested that Asians have an overall favorable impression of Asian Americans. Nitya Pibulsonggram said that the Thai, for the most part, look favorably on Thai Americans. Certainly, the Thai maintain an emotional link with their compatriots in the United States, whom they refer to as "Thai in America." Thai Americans, moreover, maintain a Robin Hood image among homelanders because of the large sums of money that they send back to their relatives.

Market Potential for Domestic Rice Varieties Among Asian Americans: Summary Report H.L. Goodwin, M. Edward Rister, Robert E. Branson, James W. Stansel, Bill D. Webb, Jim Bob Ward, and Karen Kunz* Summary Report November 1992 ABSTRACT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY : Potential acceptability of domestically produced and processed rices to the growing Asian-American market is evaluated. A publicly documented protocol for assessing consumers' preferences among alternative rice varieties is a complementary product of this research. The latter is applicable to both aromatic and nonaromatic varietal development, augmenting the varietal screening prior to release for commercial production. Two domestic aromatic rices (Jasmine 85 and Cal A301) and two domestic non- aromatic rices (Lemont and Toro II) are evaluated in comparison to a representative imported Thai Jasmine brand. The domestic rices were obtained in rough form and then both friction and water milled; the Thai Jasmine was obtained in milled form via a commercial rice buyer to replicate market competitive conditions. Based on Census data and known preferences for Indica rices, the study focused on several ethnic groups in the general Asian-American population: Filipinos, Chinese, Taiwanese, Thai, Cambodian, and Vietnamese. Japanese and Koreans were intentionally avoided because of their preference for Japonica rices.
