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?

Mission ShakthiSAT Mascot Unveiled at BRICS CCI WE Summit 2026 – A Global Call for Inclusive Space Collaboration Led by India
India, 1st Apr 2026, – New Delhi – In a landmark moment for global cooperation in space science and women-led innovation, the mascot of Mission ShakthiSAT was officially unveiled at the BRICS Chamber of Commerce & Industry Women Empowerment (BRICS CCI WE) Annual Summit 2026 in New Delhi. The unveiling, graced by Ms. Meenakshi Lekhi, Former Minister of State for External Affairs, along with Ms. Ruby Sinha, President BRICS CCI WE, ambassadors, and delegates from BRICS and partner nations, marked a powerful convergence of diplomacy, science, and gender inclusion.
Adding to this moment of recognition and impact, Dr. Srimathy Kesan, Founder & CEO of Space Kidz India and Mission Director of ShakthiSAT, was honoured with the prestigious “Changemaker of the Year” Award by BRICS CCI WE. She expressed that this recognition is a great honour and a reflection of the collective efforts of young girls, global partners, and supporters who are driving meaningful change through space science and education.
The Shakthi mascot, conceptualised by Dr. Srimathy Kesan, with design execution by artist Bikram Dutt and apparel design by Ms. Harsha (Hashtag), stands as a symbol of strength, UNITY, and the transformative potential of the girl child in shaping the future of space exploration. The 108 flags on the shirt of the mascot represent the 108 participating countries in the mission.This mascot will be carried to the MOON With the 108 Country flags. “ONE UNIVERSE ONE FAMILY”
Rooted in the timeless Indian philosophy of “Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam” — the world is one family, Mission ShakthiSAT is a bold global initiative led by Space Kidz India under the leadership of Dr. Srimathy Kesan. The mission aims to empower 12,000 girls from 108 countries through intensive, hands-on training in STEM, satellite engineering, coding, and space systems. Over the course of the program, students undergo extensive hours of structured learning, technical workshops, and collaborative design processes, ensuring that participation goes beyond inspiration to real, measurable skill-building and scientific contribution.
Mission ShakthiSAT is envisioned as the world’s first all-girls international lunar mission, comprising both a Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite as a technology demonstrator and a lunar satellite targeting a hard landing on the Moon. This mission is not only a technological endeavor but also a global platform for scientific collaboration, enabling students from diverse geographies to work together on experiments that address real-world challenges. It reflects a shift in the global space paradigm—from isolated missions and duplication of effort to shared knowledge, collective innovation, and responsible use of space resources.
India’s leadership in this initiative underscores its evolving role as a unifying force in the global space ecosystem. By bringing together nations—large and small—Mission ShakthiSAT ensures that access to space is not limited by geography or economic status. The mission seeks to build an inclusive international framework where countries collaborate rather than compete, and where young girls are empowered to lead scientific discovery. In this spirit, the team also looks forward to meaningful engagement with global leadership, including a potential interaction with the Honorable Prime Minister of India, to further strengthen the mission’s vision and impact on a national and international scale.
The unveiling at the BRICS CCI WE Summit aligns with the theme “Women in Innovation, Science & Entrepreneurship (WISE) – Inspiring Change, Shaping Tomorrow,” reinforcing the importance of women’s leadership in shaping future economies and technologies. Mission ShakthiSAT embodies this vision by creating pathways for girls to actively participate in high-impact scientific missions while fostering international cooperation across BRICS+ and partner nations.
Building on the success of previous initiatives such as AzaadiSAT, where 750 rural Indian girls contributed to the development and successful launch of a satellite, Mission ShakthiSAT expands this model globally. It demonstrates that talent exists universally, and that with the right opportunities, mentorship, and access, young minds can contribute meaningfully to advanced scientific and technological missions.
The mission is now entering a critical phase, with selected students from participating countries expected to travel to India for hands-on payload integration, testing, and ground station development, followed by launch preparations.
The international student program and travel to India is scheduled from August 23 to September 1, 2026, during which participants will engage in intensive hands-on training, collaboration, and mission integration activities.
As the mission progresses toward its orbital and lunar milestones, Space Kidz India is actively engaging with global institutions, industry leaders, and stakeholders to build strong support systems and partnerships.
Mission ShakthiSAT is currently seeking CSR partners and institutional collaborators to support this historic initiative. Organizations aligned with the vision of inclusive growth, STEM education, and global cooperation are invited to partner in enabling access, infrastructure, training, and mission development—ensuring that this transformative opportunity reaches deserving girls across the world.
Mission ShakthiSAT is supported by a strong ecosystem of partners and collaborators who have stood by the initiative and contributed to its growth and impact. The team extends its sincere gratitude to IN-SPACe, ISRO, Hexaware, Ananth Technologies, Zoho Learn, AIMERS Foundation, Meridien Space Command, BCI Aerospace, World Space Week Association, and several other global and regional partners, whose continued support has been instrumental in advancing the mission’s goals.
The Shakthi mascot represents more than a mission—it represents a movement. A movement where a girl from any part of the world can build, innovate, and lead in space science. A movement where nations come together not in competition, but in collaboration. And a movement where space becomes a shared platform for peace, progress, and collective human advancement.
Space Kidz India, the organization behind this initiative, has established itself as a pioneer in student-led space missions, having launched over 20 balloon satellites, 3 suborbital satellites, 5 orbital satellites, and 2 rocket launches, while inspiring thousands of students through hands-on international exposure and training. With Mission ShakthiSAT, the organization takes a significant step forward in scaling its vision globally, positioning India at the forefront of a new era in space exploration defined by inclusion, collaboration, and purpose.

AMZ Shipper Expands Cross-Border Logistics Network to Support Growing Amazon Seller Demand
AMZ Shipper expands freight forwarding and FBA prep services with new warehouses, transparent pricing, and dedicated account managers. The logistics provider helps Amazon sellers navigate supply chain challenges through end-to-end shipping, real-time tracking, and multi-channel fulfillment support.
SHENZHEN, CHINA – As cross-border e-commerce continues to accelerate, AMZ Shipper, a specialized logistics provider for Amazon sellers, today announced the continued expansion of its freight forwarding and FBA prep services. With a growing network of warehouses across China and a commitment to transparent pricing, the company is positioning itself as a key partner for sellers navigating increasingly complex global supply chains.
The expansion comes at a time when Amazon sellers face mounting challenges: fluctuating freight rates, FBA warehouse congestion, and stricter compliance requirements. For many sellers, finding a reliable freight forwarder has become a critical factor in maintaining inventory levels and protecting profit margins.
“We understand that each shipment is unique,” said a spokesperson for AMZ Shipper. “Our approach is built on personalized service—whether a seller is shipping their first sample or their hundredth container, we tailor our solutions to meet their specific needs.”
A Data-Driven Approach to Freight Forwarding
The company’s service model emphasizes four operational priorities: competitive pricing, logistics efficiency, partner reliability, and service customization. By working with a network of vetted carriers and customs brokers, AMZ Shipper provides end-to-end logistics coverage from factory pickup in China to final delivery at Amazon fulfillment centers in the US and Europe.
Real-time tracking and proactive communication are built into the company’s operational workflow, giving sellers visibility into their shipments throughout the transit process. Each client is assigned a dedicated account manager, a structure intended to address the industry-wide challenge of inconsistent customer support responsiveness.
Meeting the Demands of Modern E-Commerce
As more Amazon sellers expand into multi-channel sales—including TikTok Shop, Walmart Marketplace, and direct-to-consumer websites—logistics providers are increasingly expected to support diverse fulfillment models. AMZ Shipper’s service offerings extend beyond traditional FBA shipments to include direct-to-consumer fulfillment and hybrid inventory management.
The company operates warehouses across key manufacturing regions in China and reports handling thousands of containers annually. With a 24/7 support team and a presence across multiple countries, AMZ Shipper is structured to serve sellers operating across different time zones and markets.
Transparency as a Competitive Advantage
Hidden fees remain a frequent point of contention between Amazon sellers and freight forwarders. In response, AMZ Shipper provides detailed, all-inclusive quotes prior to engagement. Clients receive a line-item breakdown of ocean freight, customs clearance, trucking, and documentation fees—an approach designed to eliminate unexpected charges at the time of invoicing.
“We believe that trust is built on transparency,” the spokesperson added. “Our goal is to make cross-border logistics as straightforward as possible, so sellers can focus on growing their business rather than worrying about supply chain disruptions.”
About AMZ Shipper
AMZ Shipper is a cross-border logistics provider specializing in freight forwarding and FBA prep services for Amazon sellers. With warehouses in China and a global partner network, the company is committed to delivering efficient, transparent, and personalized logistics solutions.
