General information
APAICS programs focus on developing leadership, building public policy knowledge, and filling the political pipeline for Asian Pacific Americans to pursue public office at the local, state, and federal levels. APAICS addresses the need for more Asian Pacific American political leaders at all levels, including: - A two day Leadership Academy for Asian Pacific American Elected Officials where participants are provided with training in various areas, including campaigning, fundraising, media relations and coalition building. - Fellowships and summer internships for qualified graduate and undergraduate students to work in the U.S. Congress, Federal government, or non-profit organizations. APAICS also partners with the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation (CBCF) and Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute (CHCI) to offer several joint “Tri-Caucus” programs throughout the year.

Sub:- Trump’s failure to harness State Dept for Indo-Pacific initiative, the cause of toothless valid criticism of CPEC by Wells
If Prez Trump understands, sooner the better for peaceful & harmonious global order, that without realizing Indo-Pacific initiative (envisaged by the USA) there is no solution to real & imaginary threats to global order from China and without letting India take the lead for realizing this Indo-Pacific project (first through unification of India, united-J&K and Afghanistan as precursor to SAARC) there is no meaningful & worth mentioning progress on this Indo-Pacific project, as mentioned below:-

If Communist China is all about saving face, please share with those Hong Kong Protestors fighting for their freedom and basic human rights! We in America need to show that China's leadership in Hong Kong is a complete failure as can be clearly seen in the never-ending riots. This, as opposed to the peace and prosperity under British rule.
TIME IS VERY SHORT FOR Hong Kong Freedom Fighters and Hong Kong Christians. Hope you can at least get the message out. to those in America.
