The selection from Gold House and CAPE, now in its fourth year, also recognized a record number of Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander honorees.

Asian Americans have been the fastest-growing group of eligible voters in the United States over roughly the past two decades and since 2020.

Ms. Haley, the daughter of Indian immigrants, has a natural constituency in Iowa’s Indian American voters, but leaders say she has not reached out.

Kuo Chiu, known as KC to his friends, teaches urban design at Tunghai University in Taiwan. He’s also one of many of the country's citizens who practises rifle skills in his spare time, in case of a Chinese invasion.

Mistranslation of ‘satellite’ to ‘missile’ in message causes alarm and confusion days before presidential election
A Chinese satellite launch has triggered a nationwide emergency alert in Taiwan days before its presidential election, prompting alarm and confusion as the English portion of the message erroneously translated satellite to “missile”.
The bilingual air raid alert blasted over loudspeakers and was sent to every mobile phone in Taiwan shortly after 3pm local time (0700 GMT), warning people to “be aware”.

The English portion said “[air raid alert] missile flyover Taiwan airspace”.
