Now that we finally have a minority in office, one is to think he must surround himself with white people and he simply represents their ideas. That is not the case with Barack Obama. There are more Asian Americans in american politics than ever before. As a matter of fact, out of the 15 President's Caabinet members, three of them are Asian Americans. That is incredible.
Obama's Cabinet secretary, Chris Lu, was a classmate of obama's at Harvard. His parents were immigrants and he says that him working at the White House is a dream come true. 62% of Asian Americans voted for Obama. According to the Hyphen Magazine, Asian Americans were the deciding factor in the swing states during the 2008 election. Kevin Liao is another Asian American that has worked for Obama. Liao also worked as a part of the youth commission for the San Ftancisco board of Supervisors. The Obama administration has set historic markers in terms of appointment of Asian Americans in the Cabinet and in the White House. Til next time keep it heemin.

AA HOOPS Jeremy Lin
Today I want to talk about the Golden State Warriors rookie guard Jeremy Lin. He is the first American NBA basketball player to be of Chinese or Taiwanese descent. This already makes him a fan favorite across the nation but because he is from the Bay Area, he is looked at as a hometown hero. When I attended the warriors game against the pistons, the building roared when he entered the game. Actually the crowd goes crazy whenever he simply touches the ball. But his stardom did not come as easily as the other fan favorites. In his 2005-06 senior year season at Palo Alto high school, he led his team to a 32-1 record. Meanwhile upsetting nationally ranked Mater Dei high school. However the dream season did not lead him to a well deserved athletic scholarship to a D.1 school. Instead of calling it quits he used his brilliance to be accepted and attend Harvard University. Wow. At Harvard, he quickly told his coach he was not going to do anything Extra flashy or freakishly athletic in which he did not but was considered to all league teams his sophomore year through his senior year. But strangely this was still not enough to be drafted to the NBA. Disappointing. But when he joined the Dallas mavericks summer league team he immediately showed his basketball abilities. He was eventually signed with the Golden state warriors. So if you like to see fun and tough basketball watch this kid. And yes he is Chinese Taiwanese American. Jeremy Shu-How Lin. Keep it heemin.

A Satay Chicken and Beef we order combo!! the chicken and beef is on skewer charcoal grilled to perfection and served with peanut sauce.
next we order Sizzling Malaysia Tofu Platter , tender Tofu with minced chicken&shrimp, sauteed with chinese mushroom, served with a splashed egg on the sizzling platter. this is delicious because the Tofu is homemade and taste very good. I love to eat TOFU 2~~~
lastly but least is the Deep Fried Fish with Belacan sauce.
I also took video on Roti Canal because it is really fun to watch it how they make that pancake.
so now you know how do them do the indian pancake~~
