The U.S. is a melting pot of diverse cultures, all united by our shared identity as Americans. This May, celebrate with me as we enter the Asian American Pacific Islander Heritage month! Every Friday, I’ll be posting trivia questions and interactive activities. Would love for you to participate by sharing your responses in the comments below. This week: Share your Asian connections! Below is a map highlighting various countries with my connections. Share the countries you have a connection with: T = Traveled to L = Lived in W = Worked S = Studied I = Immigrated from F = Have family living in V = Dream of visiting one day E.g., if you have traveled to Japan, and dream of visiting Thailand, you would comment: T = Japan; V = Thailand. Layover at airports count as travelled. Working on short-term projects count as worked. Which Asian countries hold a special place in your life? Share your connections in the comments!

May marks Asian Pacific American Heritage Month, which celebrates the histories of Americans from Asia and the Pacific islands of Melanesia, Micronesia and Polynesia. May was chosen to commemorate Asian American and Pacific Islanders from two key dates: May 7 and May 10. May 7, 1843, marks the arrival of the first Japanese immigrants to the United States. And May 10, 1869, or Golden Spike Day, recognizes the completion of the first transcontinental railroad in the U.S., which had significant contributions from Chinese workers. There are various ways to celebrate Asian Pacific American Heritage month. We can start with learning about their traditions, food, and music. Host a book club featuring an Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) author or a film screening featuring an AAPI director. Explore and support local AAPI businesses. At work, provide learning opportunities, honor the culture through employee events, or host a fireside chat about Asian representation. These are a few of the many ways we can honor and support Asian American and Pacific Islanders. How will you celebrate Asian Pacific American Heritage month? #AsianPacificAmericanMonth #LearnAndSupport #CelebrateAndHonor

🇸🇬 Happy National Day, Singapore! A nation renowned for its knowledge-driven, resilient, and forward-looking spirit. Wishing all my Singaporean friends and colleagues continued success and prosperity. In the West, we can certainly admire—and perhaps envy—how you consistently turn dreams into reality. Singapore is the prime example of science-based country and the justification why other small nations should not stop dreaming.
Happy National Day, Singapore! This year, we proudly celebrate 59 years of independence. As we reflect on our nation's journey and achievements, let us continue working towards a better tomorrow together, as one united people!
