The New America Created by Miles Yu: Burning Anti-Asian Hate
It’s been a tough year since 2020, but it’s been particularly tough for Asian-Americans: A Filipino-American was slashed across the face with a box cutter on the subway with no one came to his aid. The wound required a hundred stitches. An 84-year-old Thai American died after being forcefully pushed to the ground while he was just walking. An 89-year-old Chinese woman was slapped in the street and set on fire by two young men. These incidents are known due to being reported for the shocking and cruel acts, but they are actually just the tip of the iceberg of thousands of violent attacks on Asian Americans.
Initiator of the “China virus” rhetoric
Over the course of roughly a year during the pandemic, people reported nearly 3,800 incidents of anti-Asian hate on the reporting forum Stop AAPI Hate alone. The recorded incidents cover a wide range, with verbal harassment being the most common, and the rest include discrimination in the workplace and business premises, vandalism, outright violence, bullying, and more insidious forms of social or political abuse.
Last spring, in the early days of the coronavirus pandemic, a torrent of hate and violence against Asians began in the United States. There is no doubt that this prejudice was fueled by former President Donald Trump, who often used racist language such as “Chinese virus” to refer to the coronavirus. Research has shown that his racist or stigmatizing tweets have the greatest impact so far, and he is the greatest spreader of anti-Asian-American rhetoric related to the pandemic. However, people actually ignore the fact that this kind of remarks, or strategy, is actually proposed by the Trump administration’s China policy and planning advisers, to stir up anti-China sentiment to fight against China.
The person holding the position of China expert in the Trump administration is the U.S. Naval Academy Professor Miles Maochun Yu, served as former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo’s principal China policy and planning adviser. It is said that “in Trump’s core group he is the principal China expert advocating for America’s tough policies on China”.
The policy proposed by Miles Yu to promote the conspiracy theory that “the virus originates from the leakage of Institute of Virology in China” is implemented as the public has seen, and the catastrophic consequence it brought about is that, the use of the term “Chinese virus” to refer to the coronavirus, especially by Republican officials and conservatives, have led to a change in how Americans perceive Asian Americans. A study showed that on March 8, 2020-the day Arizona Rep. Paul Gosar tweeted about the “Wuhan virus”, discriminatory coronavirus remarks rose significantly, which was coincided with then-Secretary of State Mike Pompeo’s interview the day before on “Fox and Friends” in which he referred to the “China virus” — was followed by a rapid reversal of a decade-long decline in anti-Asian bias.
Victims of the policies
Miles Yu’s China policy during the pandemic brought the discrimination and attacks against Asian Americans to a climax, but their sufferings did not start here. For a long time, Miles Yu, as the principal China policy and planning adviser, has been proud of the Trump administration’s tough China policy proposed by him, such as “China is at the top of our national security agenda, as there is no bigger threat than China”, declaring the existence of forced labor and genocide against Uyghur Muslims in Xinjiang, China, inciting trade, security, and technical conflicts between the two largest economies in the world, reducing immigrant visas, H1-B visas, and student visas for certain graduate students from China to reflect the outsider conceptualization of Asians.
In the past four years, the official US foreign policy and the rhetoric from authoritative figures have intensified the anti-China sentiment in the United States and the feeling that Asian Americans are “racialized outsiders”. Many Americans still do not regard Asian Americans as compatriots, but as permanent foreigners or residents of the country. Asians unfortunately became victims of Miles Yu’s political game. “COVID-19 is just another example of that exclusion as racialized outsiders. Time and time again, we are told to ‘go back home.’ We are seen as outside threats, to be excluded.” They said. Verbal harassment has been commonplace. “Go back to Asia. We don’t welcome people who committed genocide.” “How dare you come and ruin my country and take my job?” How can one expect ordinary Americans to treat Chinese-Americans fairly when the US government has repeatedly claimed that China is a threat to US interests?
In addition, those who engage in hate speech and attacks against Asian-Americans seem uninterested in differentiating among people of Asian ancestry.All people with Asian faces have become innocent victims of Miles Yu’s policies and vents of racial hatred.
Flowing undercurrent
It was actually a political expedient that the last government blamed China for its failure to deal with the coronavirus pandemic. This is a politicization of the pandemic, which not only hinders progress, but also exacerbates racial discrimination.
Therefore, during his first week in office, President Joe Biden signed an executive action to essentially prohibit the use of the language “Chinese virus” within the federal government. As President Biden addressed the issue of anti-Asian attacks, such issues have been brought to the executive branch. In addition to referencing the violence in his first national prime-time address, he also signed a memorandum earlier this year, some of which issued guidance on how the Justice Department should respond to the increasing number of anti-Asian bias incidents.
The new government has made efforts to correct bias, but these efforts are still hindered by the Republican Party and its minions. Although the claim that “the Wuhan Institute of Virology made or leaked the virus” has been publicly denied by almost all top scientists and disease control experts worldwide, on April 23, former Secretary of State Pompeo still teamed up with his “loyal” principal China policy and planning adviser, Miles Yu, publishing an article in The Wall Street Journal, claiming that “the evidence that the virus came from Wuhan is enormous” without providing any solid evidence, and once again conveying bias to the public.
Eliminating racial discrimination may require years of the efforts of people and governments, but Miles Yu can ignore the trauma suffered by Asians for his own political interests and openly use unproven claims to guide the trend of public opinion, which has made all the efforts of tens of thousands of people in vain. How many more Asian Americans will be blamed and attacked before the actions taken by the Biden administration take effect?
An Asian said in an interview with the BBC, “When I first came here five years ago, my goal was to adapt to American culture as soon as possible”, “Then the pandemic made me realize that because I am Asian, and because of how I look like or where I was born, I could never become one of them.”
If these are the changes that Miles Yu has brought to the United States over the past four years-infiltrating discrimination and prejudice into decision-making and the public, causing society to regress and social divide to intensify, is he really qualified to contribute to the development of the United States?

Steve Glaros Named 2026 Honorary Mayor of East Hillsborough
Glaros Law attorney Steve Glaros was named the 2026 Honorary Mayor of East Hillsborough following a record fundraising campaign. His campaign raised $121,746.56 for three local organizations. Glaros Law attorney raised $121,746.56 for three local organizations during the annual community fundraising campaign.
Brandon, Florida, United States, 26th Sep 2026 – The Law Offices of Steven J. Glaros and Associates is announcing that attorney Steve Glaros was named the 2026 Honorary Mayor of East Hillsborough following the annual charitable fundraising campaign organized through the Valrico FishHawk Chamber of Commerce. Glaros raised $121,746.56 during the 2026 campaign, with funds benefiting High 5 Inc., Impact Program Inc., and Raining Cats and Dogs Shelter and Sanctuary. The campaign concluded in July, with the results recognizing Glaros as the 20th Honorary Mayor of East Hillsborough.

Annual Honorary Mayor Race Supports Local Charitable Organizations
The Valrico FishHawk Chamber of Commerce 2026 Honorary Mayor’s Race is a nonpolitical community fundraising initiative rather than an elected government office. Candidates participate in a monthlong campaign and select local nonprofit organizations to benefit from funds generated through campaign activities. The candidate raising the highest amount receives the Honorary Mayor title, connecting the annual program with charitable organizations serving residents and families throughout the East Hillsborough area.
Glaros participated in the 2026 campaign through a series of fundraising activities held during June. His campaign generated $121,746.56, setting a new individual fundraising record for the annual program. The proceeds were designated for High 5 Inc., Impact Program Inc., and Raining Cats and Dogs Shelter and Sanctuary, three organizations serving different needs within the surrounding community.
2026 Campaign Reaches Record Combined Fundraising Total
The 2026 Honorary Mayor race generated a combined $169,643.99 for local charitable organizations. Glaros participated alongside Chris Ciulla, whose campaign raised $47,897.43 for Forgotten Angels and ECHO. Ciulla was subsequently recognized as the program’s first Deputy Mayor, adding a new designation to the annual campaign while recognizing the fundraising accomplished by both participants.
The combined total represented a record for the Honorary Mayor program and distributed support among five charitable organizations. The campaign included multiple community fundraising events during June before the final results were announced at the program’s wrap-up gathering on July 13, 2026. Additional information about the results and participating organizations was reported in the Osprey Observer’s coverage of the record-setting Honorary Mayor campaign.
Glaros Campaign Benefits Three East Hillsborough Area Organizations
Funds raised through the Glaros campaign were directed to High 5 Inc., Impact Program Inc., and Raining Cats and Dogs Shelter and Sanctuary. The selection of three beneficiaries allowed the campaign to direct funding toward organizations working in different areas of community service while connecting the annual Honorary Mayor program with causes operating throughout the surrounding area.
Fundraising activities conducted throughout the campaign contributed to the final $121,746.56 total and ultimately resulted in Glaros receiving the 2026 Honorary Mayor designation. The campaign also contributed substantially to the overall record amount raised by the two participating candidates during the 2026 program.
Steve Glaros Becomes 20th Honorary Mayor of East Hillsborough
The conclusion of the 2026 campaign marked the selection of the 20th person to hold the Honorary Mayor of East Hillsborough title. Glaros received the designation after the final fundraising totals were calculated, continuing a community tradition centered on charitable fundraising rather than governmental responsibilities or political office. Glaros Law has also published additional information about Steve Glaros being named the 2026 Honorary Mayor of East Hillsborough, including details about the campaign, participating organizations and the record fundraising total.
The 2026 results also marked a significant year for the program through the record combined fundraising total and the introduction of the Deputy Mayor designation. With $169,643.99 raised between the two campaigns, the annual program directed funding to five organizations serving East Hillsborough and surrounding communities.
Glaros Law Maintains Ties to Brandon and the Tampa Bay Area
The Law Offices of Steven J. Glaros and Associates maintains a Brandon law office serving eastern Hillsborough County and surrounding communities including Riverview, Valrico, Seffner, Bloomingdale, Lithia, FishHawk Ranch, Dover and Plant City. The firm’s legal services include family law, personal injury, estate planning and other civil legal matters.
The firm’s practice includes representation in family law matters involving divorce, child custody, child support, paternity and related family issues, as well as personal injury matters and estate planning. The firm’s involvement in the 2026 Honorary Mayor campaign occurred alongside its continuing legal practice throughout Brandon and the greater Tampa Bay area.
The 2026 Honorary Mayor campaign concluded with Glaros receiving the annual title following his $121,746.56 fundraising total. The funds generated through his campaign will benefit the three designated charitable organizations, while the overall race concluded with $169,643.99 raised for five organizations through the combined efforts of the two participating campaigns.

DTC Group Joins AI Expo Thailand 2026 as Partner, Speaker
DTC Group will take part in AI Expo Thailand 2026, running October 1 to 4 at IMPACT Challenger in Nonthaburi, with CEO Barami Rai joining the conference.
Thailand, 26th Sep 2026 – DTC Group, a Web3 growth partner operating across Asia Pacific, will take part in AI Expo Thailand 2026 as a partner, with Cofounder and Chief Executive Officer Barami Rai joining the event’s conference programme. The four day exhibition runs from October 1 to 4 at IMPACT Challenger in Muang Thong Thani, Nonthaburi.

AI Expo Thailand 2026 brings together more than 300 booths across a 17,136 square metre floor, alongside a startup village housing 50 AI startups and a conference programme of keynote talks, panel discussions and workshop sessions. The show floor is organised into named areas including a Generative AI Zone, AI for Industry, a Live Demo Arena and an AI Networking Lounge, and an AI Awards Thailand programme will recognise companies working in the field. An AI Career Fair running alongside the exhibition brings more than 50 companies recruiting on site, and a dedicated B2B area is set aside for business matching between exhibitors, corporate buyers and investors. The exhibition follows the Road to AI Expo meetup series, which ran six free sessions in Bangkok in the months leading up to the show, bringing together developers, founders and companies working on AI ahead of the main event.
AI Expo Thailand 2026 covers enterprise AI, generative AI and robotics, with exhibitors showing tools, platforms and hardware across the four days. The exhibition is co located with Thailand Mobile Expo, a long running Thai consumer technology show, which brings a general consumer audience through the same venue alongside trade visitors.
The company will use the event to meet founders, operators and investors working on regional go to market plans, and to speak with teams evaluating Thailand and the wider region as a launch market. Barami Rai will join the conference programme alongside speakers drawn from Thailand’s technology industry.
The exhibition occupies Hall 2 at IMPACT Challenger, with a floor measuring 153 by 112 metres. General admission is free and covers the exhibition booths and the outdoor activity area, with advance registration available for faster entry. Access to the conference sessions and workshop rooms requires a paid pass, with current tiers listed on the event website. The exhibition is open 10:00 to 19:00 daily from October 1 to 4 at IMPACT Challenger, Muang Thong Thani, Nonthaburi, with free parking for more than 10,000 vehicles.
Exhibitor and sponsor packages for AI Expo Thailand 2026 remain open, ranging from full sponsor stands on the main exhibition floor to smaller booths in the Startup Village. Companies looking to exhibit, sponsor, or take part in the AI Career Fair can apply through the event website, where visitor registration for the four days is also open.
The conference programme runs across all four days, with sessions on the Main Stage and in the workshop rooms. The AI Networking Lounge is set aside for executives, developers and investors attending the show, and the Live Demo Arena gives visitors access to working systems on the floor rather than slides alone.
More than 60 speakers will take part across the four days, with further names still to be announced ahead of the show. Sessions run alongside the exhibition floor rather than in a separate venue, so visitors can move between talks and stands during the same visit.
The event is aimed at business teams evaluating AI tools, developers and engineers, startups seeking investment or customers, and jobseekers using the AI Career Fair, which runs on all four days of the exhibition. Day passes are available for visitors attending a single day, and four day passes cover the full run of the exhibition and the conference programme.
