Asia Society
A half century ago when the Asia Society was founded, Asia was frozen in a cold war, wracked by poverty, and seemingly destined for desolation. Few in or outside of Asia's borders foresaw anything but a future of conflict, occupation, and despair. Today, the countries I will visit are at peace. Asia is on the cutting edge of so many of the world's innovations and trends. It is a contributor to global culture, a globally economic power, and a region of vital importance to the United States today and into our future.
半个世纪前,当亚洲协会成立时,亚洲深陷冷战的僵局,贫困肆虐,前景苍凉。在亚洲内外,除冲突、占领和绝望,很少有人能够预见任何不同的未来。今天,我将要访问的亚洲各国生活在和平的环境里。亚洲正处在全世界许多创新与潮流的前沿。无论是今天还是在我们的未来,亚洲都是全球文化的贡献者、全球经济的强大动力以及一个对美国至关重要的地区。
