At 50, EWC Looks Ahead to Meet Asia Pacific Challenges

At 50, EWC Looks Ahead to Meet Asia Pacific Challenges
By Charles E. Morrison

(Note: This commentary originally appeared in The Honolulu Star-Advertiser on July 1, 2010)

In 1960, the year the East-West Center was founded by Congress to promote understanding and cooperation in the Asia Pacific region, Americans largely regarded the region as significant as the secondary Cold War theater after Europe. Today, economic and resources issues dominate U.S.-Asia-Pacific relations, a consequence of the region’s rapid economic growth. Excluded from many international organizations in 1960, China, India, Indonesia, Japan and Korea are major voices at the G-20, the world’s premier international economic institution.
