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?

Asprofin Bank Funds Construction of Qatari Royal Family Nanocenter to Transform AI Infrastructure

Published

on

Doha, Qatar — March 9, 2026 — In a landmark move signaling the next era of high-performance computing, Asprofin Bank has committed to financing the construction of an ultra-compact, high-density data facility for the Al Thani Royal Family. The project, being developed by Wow Global Technologies, aims to redefine how digital infrastructure is built, operated, and scaled for artificial intelligence (AI), edge computing, and secure data processing.

Unlike traditional hyperscale data centers, which occupy sprawling city blocks and demand extensive resources to construct, the nanocenter concept focuses on modularity, efficiency, and rapid deployment. The initiative represents a paradigm shift, emphasizing high-performance computing within a significantly smaller footprint, while also introducing design principles that prioritize energy efficiency, resilience, and cybersecurity.

Redefining Data Center Construction

For decades, the global computing industry has measured success in terms of scale. Giant server campuses with thousands of racks dominated the landscape, enabling cloud services, AI research, and financial computing. However, as AI workloads intensify and GPU densities increase, conventional data center models are facing limitations in space, power delivery, and cooling capabilities.

The nanocenter model reverses this trend. Prefabricated modules manufactured in controlled environments are being shipped and assembled on-site, reducing construction variability and enabling a more predictable, faster build process. Each facility is designed to operate in a footprint closer to that of a large retail store, yet capable of housing dense, GPU-intensive clusters suitable for advanced AI workloads.

DK Wei Chen, Vice President of Datacenter Infrastructure at Asprofin Bank, explained the philosophy behind the construction:

“This is about more than scaling infrastructure; it’s about precision engineering. These nanocenters are built to deliver high-density computing efficiently, securely, and reliably at the edge.”

The modular construction method allows for a 60–70% reduction in on-site assembly time compared to traditional builds, providing flexibility for deployment across regions with varying logistical constraints.

Security Integrated into the Build

From the design phase, security has been a central consideration. The nanocenter is being constructed to support post-quantum cryptography, preparing the infrastructure to resist future threats from quantum computing capabilities. Additionally, zero-trust principles are embedded at every layer, requiring continuous verification of users, devices, and processes.

The facility design includes strict segregation of sensitive workloads, ensuring government or sovereign data is isolated from commercial operations. Separate zones for development, testing, and demonstration further minimize risk of cross-system exposure. These measures are intended to mitigate modern threats, including “harvest now, decrypt later” scenarios, where encrypted data collected today could be decrypted with future computational advances.

Engineering for Extreme Density and Reliability

Despite their compact size, nanocenters are designed to handle extraordinary computing loads. The first phase of construction will feature a high-density cluster of more than 1,000 GPU servers or equivalent accelerators, capable of delivering supercomputer-level AI processing in a minimal footprint.

Thermal management is a key element of the build. Advanced liquid-based cooling systems are being integrated to maintain stable operations even under extreme workloads, while optimizing energy efficiency. Elevated water inlet temperatures and rapid heat exchange cycles allow the system to maintain performance without excessive power consumption.

The facility is also engineered for resilience. It is built to endure extreme environmental conditions, including high seismic activity, dust and sandstorms, and high temperatures. Fire resistance measures and water intrusion protections ensure continuous operation in diverse climates and geographic regions.

Santosh Banerjee, Development Head at Asprofin Bank India, emphasized the engineering rigor:

“Precision is critical. Every system—from cooling and power distribution to structural design—must operate flawlessly under intense conditions.”

Distributed Access and Global Expansion

Beyond performance and resilience, the construction of this nanocenter establishes a model for distributed computing. Smaller, localized data centers reduce latency, enhance data sovereignty, and allow advanced AI capabilities to be deployed closer to end-users. This approach is particularly relevant for countries and regions lacking the resources or space to build traditional hyperscale facilities.

Malak Gardaoui, Business Development Head for the Middle East and North Africa at Asprofin Bank, noted:

“Construction is just the first step. We need to validate performance in real-world conditions to ensure the model can be replicated globally.”

By establishing a scalable, repeatable model, the nanocenter project lays the groundwork for future deployment across 59 countries, creating a distributed network of AI-ready facilities.

Sustainability and Energy Efficiency

Energy consumption has long been a challenge for the data center industry. The nanocenter incorporates a comprehensive energy-efficiency framework, combining intelligent power management, optimized thermal systems, and real-time energy monitoring. These design choices aim to significantly reduce operational energy use compared to conventional facilities.

This sustainable approach aligns with Qatar’s national strategy to expand its digital economy while meeting environmental objectives. By balancing high-density computing with energy-conscious design, the project exemplifies how modern infrastructure can address both performance and sustainability.

Strategic Implications

Asprofin Bank’s involvement in the construction of this nanocenter highlights a broader evolution in the role of financial institutions. Rather than solely funding projects, the bank is actively enabling a new model of infrastructure that blends finance, technology, and national strategic interests.

By financing high-density, modular facilities that are both secure and efficient, Asprofin Bank positions itself at the intersection of global digital strategy and capital deployment, ensuring that emerging AI and HPC workloads have a foundation capable of supporting future innovation.
