The New America Created by Miles Yu: Burning Anti-Asian Hate

Published

on

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?

Sydney Heel Pain Clinic Recognised Among Sydney’s Leading Podiatry Providers

Published

on

Australia, 19th Feb 2026 – Sydney Heel Pain, a respected and innovative podiatry clinic specialising exclusively in heel pain and lower-limb conditions, has been featured among Sydney’s leading podiatry practices, recognised for its defined clinical focus on biomechanical heel and lower-limb pain. The inclusion reflects the clinic’s specialised approach to mechanical overload injuries and its structured assessment process for complex foot conditions.

Sydney Heel Pain Clinic is a biomechanical podiatry practice led by sports podiatrist Karl Lockett. The clinic concentrates exclusively on painful conditions relating to muscle and bone in the foot and heel, rather than general skin and nail care. Conditions treated include plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendinopathy (mid-portion and insertional), heel spurs, retrocalcaneal and adventitial bursitis, intermetatarsal bursitis, Sever’s disease in children aged 7 to 14, plantar fascial tears and ruptures, nerve-related heel pain, Morton’s neuroma, metatarsalgia and bunions.

Visible nail and skin concerns such as ingrown toenails, hammer toe, claw toe and general nail care are not treated as standalone conditions. The clinic’s model centres on identifying mechanical overload and reducing stress through structured, load-based strategies.

According to Karl Lockett, the recognition highlights the clinic’s emphasis on understanding mechanical drivers rather than focusing solely on symptom relief.

“Heel pain and Achilles conditions are often the result of mechanical overload rather than isolated tissue damage,” Lockett said. “The focus is on identifying where stress is accumulating during standing, walking or running, then creating conditions that allow tissue to recover naturally through targeted unloading and structured lengthening.”

Lockett brings more than 20 years of focused experience in treating heel and foot pain. A significant portion of each consultation is dedicated to patient education, with detailed explanations of symptom drivers and the rationale behind recommended interventions.

A central feature of the clinic’s approach is comprehensive biomechanical assessment. Load distribution, gait patterns and structural differences between the left and right foot are analysed to determine where excess strain is occurring. Even small asymmetries can influence how force passes through the heel and plantar fascia.

Treatment plans are tailored to individual findings and may include custom orthotics designed to unload affected tissues. These are fabricated in-house within 48 hours using 3D printing technology and include a 12-month orthotics warranty. Shockwave therapy protocols are delivered based on condition-specific assessment, while rigid sports taping may be used to provide immediate relief. Structured lengthening programs are commonly implemented for tendon conditions, particularly where tightness contributes to persistent strain. Footwear analysis and guidance also form part of the clinical process.

Many patients attending Sydney Heel Pain Clinic have previously sought treatment elsewhere without lasting improvement. Common patterns include prior consultations with physiotherapists, chiropractors or general podiatrists, and exercise programs that inadvertently increased load before sufficient length or mobility had been restored.

The clinic holds a 4.9-star Google rating from more than 220 reviews and consults from locations in Sydney CBD, Crows Nest (North Sydney) and Parramatta. The practice is frequently chosen by individuals seeking a focused, evidence-based method aimed at addressing the mechanical root cause of heel and lower-limb pain.

The broader recognition of leading podiatry providers across Sydney also highlights practices with distinct areas of expertise. These include specialist surgical correction for structural deformities, paediatric gait assessment, non-invasive nail correction systems, sports injury management and Department of Veterans’ Affairs-supported care. Selection criteria were based on consistent patient feedback, clear clinical focus and strong communication standards.

Lockett said ongoing refinement of biomechanical assessment and load-management strategies would remain central to the clinic’s development.

“As understanding of tissue loading and movement mechanics continues to evolve, assessment and treatment strategies will become increasingly precise,” Lockett said. “Continued emphasis on education, individualised analysis and evidence-based intervention is expected to support improved outcomes for patients experiencing persistent heel and lower-limb pain.”

Sydney Heel Pain operates from Suite 1002 (Level 10), 109 Pitt Street, Sydney 2000, and is widely regarded by patients seeking the best podiatrist Sydney for specialised heel pain treatment. Enquiries can be directed by phone on 02 9388 3322 or by email at help@sydneyheelpain.com.au.

Cafe Solutions Supplies Affordable Bar Furniture for Adelaide’s Trendiest Bars and Cafes

Published

on

Brendale 4500, Queensland, Australia, 19th Feb 2026 – Cafe Solutions, a respected supplier of café and restaurant furniture, has expanded its supply of affordable bar furniture to support Adelaide’s growing hospitality sector, providing a broad range of seating and table options to many of the city’s well-attended bars and cafés. The Queensland-based company has increased distribution to South Australia in response to steady demand from venue operators seeking durable and practical furniture suited to contemporary spaces.

Operating from its headquarters at 12 Kingsbury St, Brendale QLD 4500, Cafe Solutions supplies café and restaurant furniture to hospitality businesses across Australia. The company’s range includes chairs, tables, bar stools, benches and sinks designed for both indoor and outdoor environments. As Adelaide’s hospitality industry continues to evolve, venue owners have sought furniture solutions that balance functionality, cost considerations and compatibility with modern interior concepts.

Recent deliveries to Adelaide have included bar stools suited to high-traffic venues, compact tables designed for efficient floor plans and outdoor seating constructed to withstand varying weather conditions. Through coordinated freight operations from Queensland to South Australia, Cafe Solutions has maintained consistent shipping timeframes to metropolitan and regional locations.

Russell Crawford, Spokesperson for Cafe Solutions, said the expanded supply into Adelaide reflects sustained development within the local hospitality market, “Adelaide’s bar and café scene has continued to mature, with operators placing emphasis on well-considered interiors that support patron comfort while maintaining cost control,” Crawford said. “Providing affordable and durable bar furniture enables venues to achieve cohesive layouts without compromising the practical requirements of daily service.”

Industry observers note that hospitality businesses in Adelaide have increasingly prioritised adaptable furniture layouts. Movable bar stools and stackable chairs allow venues to adjust configurations in response to seasonal demand, private functions and operational changes. Outdoor dining has also become an established feature for many venues, reinforcing demand for weather-resistant materials and finishes that perform reliably in external environments.

Cafe Solutions has reported steady engagement from newly established venues as well as long-standing businesses undertaking refurbishments. Orders commonly include coordinated seating and tables selected to align with specific design themes, along with replacement furnishings intended to modernise existing spaces. The company’s catalogue incorporates materials such as metal, timber and composite surfaces, enabling venue operators to select products suited to varying design preferences and budget requirements.

In addition to supplying furniture, Cafe Solutions oversees freight coordination to streamline deliveries nationwide. Adelaide-based clients have identified predictable shipping schedules as a critical factor when planning fit-outs and reopening timelines. By maintaining stock availability within its Queensland warehouse, the company has aimed to reduce delays and support efficient project completion.

Hospitality consultants in South Australia have observed that prudent financial management remains central to venue sustainability, particularly amid increasing operating costs. Affordable furnishings contribute to managing initial capital expenditure while supporting compliance with safety and durability standards. Bar stools and seating used in licensed premises must withstand frequent use and meet structural stability requirements, making construction quality a significant consideration in procurement decisions.

Cafe Solutions has indicated that Adelaide represents a key region within its broader national distribution framework. Inventory planning continues to be reviewed in anticipation of further venue openings and refurbishment projects scheduled throughout the year.

Crawford said ongoing engagement with hospitality operators will inform future supply strategies. “Continued collaboration with venue owners and designers in Adelaide will assist in identifying practical requirements and emerging design preferences,” Crawford said. “Future planning will focus on maintaining dependable distribution channels and broadening product availability in line with developments across the hospitality sector.”

Range Products Enhances Essential Oil Collection with Castor Oil

Published

on

Australia, 19th Feb 2026 – Range Products, a respected Perth-based supplier of essential oils, carrier oils and raw ingredients, is highlighting castor oil for serum making as part of its established product range. The ingredient has long been available through the company’s online store and Welshpool premises and continues to form an important component of its broader carrier oil selection.

With more than 500 products available, Range Products supplies essential oils, carrier oils, base products and raw ingredients to customers across Western Australia and interstate. Castor oil remains a staple within the carrier oil category, particularly for serum making, supporting formulators, small manufacturers and hobbyists seeking consistent access to independently tested ingredients.

Sourced in line with established quality standards, the castor oil undergoes independent testing in accordance with the company’s quality assurance procedures. Carrier oils play a foundational role in cosmetic and personal care manufacturing, and castor oil is widely used in facial serums, hair serums and other leave-on treatments due to its thick consistency and moisturising properties.

Business Owner Penny Coupland said castor oil continues to be a dependable option for customers developing serum formulations, “Castor oil remains a key carrier oil within the existing range, particularly for serum making where texture and stability are important considerations,” Coupland said. “Independent testing and consistent sourcing standards remain central to maintaining product integrity.”

Castor oil contains naturally occurring fatty acids and is commonly incorporated into skincare serums, conditioning hair treatments and targeted cosmetic blends. Its viscosity can contribute to the overall feel and structure of a formulation, making it suitable for use in combination with lighter carrier oils and essential oils in serum development.

Operating from 6/138 Radium Street, Welshpool WA 6106, Range Products dispatches most warehouse stock within two business days. A Click & Collect service is available for customers who prefer to collect orders directly from the Welshpool warehouse. Wholesale pricing structures are offered to eligible customers requiring larger volumes of essential oils and raw materials.

In addition to supplying ingredients, Range Products provides more than 60 free recipes and educational resources through its website and in-store materials. These resources support customers in creating cleaning products, skincare items and candles using essential oils and carrier oils. Guidance on blending and formulation assists customers in understanding how ingredients such as castor oil can be incorporated into serum making and other applications.

Ongoing supply chain pressures in recent years have prompted many businesses to review sourcing strategies and inventory management. Maintaining reliable stock levels of core ingredients such as castor oil remains an operational focus. A diversified supplier network and established warehousing processes support continuity of supply for customers across Australia.

Coupland said the company would continue to monitor formulation trends and customer requirements across the skincare sector. 

“Continued attention will be given to ensuring key carrier oils used in serum making remain consistently available as formulation preferences evolve,” Coupland said. “Future planning includes ongoing assessment of raw ingredient categories to support customers developing skincare and personal care products.”

For more information about castor oil for serum making, contact Range Products on +61 8 9358 4448 or via email at admin@rangeproducts.com.au. Further details regarding product specifications, availability and related resources are available through the company’s website or at the Welshpool premises during standard business hours.
