Thank you if you are one of the many from all over the world who submitted your paper for inclusion. Our jury was tough, fair, and stuck doggedly to the theme. We have notified everyone of the decisions and we will print an annual journal starting this year.

Living, studying, and working in China is pleasant and truly wonderful. Chinese people are very friendly to Americans and especially, Hawaiians. So consider taking a China Tour with us in the future. Details will be available at the Symposium on how you can hang out with us in Beijing and other parts of China that have tremendous cultural significance. We know China well and can facilitate your special needs and requests whatever they may be, including securing your visas and various permits that may be required by the Chinese government. We can also help with other types of visas, too, including business, student, resident permits, etc. long term employment (Z) visas, etc. Contact us first. we live in China, and have the right information and contacts, both here and there. And in the spirit of aloha we are willing to share our knowledge with you and your group. You can join our growing ohana. We have lots of regulars who have come to the 21st Century China Symposium every year since the beginning. Look back through these archives to see the last few years.

We also have large groups of Chinese tourists who want to come here and we are looking for investors for our Hawaii Tours for Chinese visitors to help us further build a solid bridge between the US and China. Either way, Chinese tourism may be one of the brightest spots in Hawaii's economic downturn. We can provide business consultations in the Chinese environment, accommodate your desires to see the Terra Cotta warriors, travel the Silk Road, etc. Attending all events of the Fifth Annual 2009 21st Century China Symposium is just the beginning. You will form relationships with experts in US-China relations and travel later with many of us to various parts of China and probably stay in touch for a lifetime.

The ticket prices are by suggested donation because this event will benefit the global grove project created by Aloha Christian Fellowship to end global hunger and homelessness within our lifetime. So please donate buy lots of tickets, support our 3-day event. Get your tickets before July 1st as prices go up. EARLY BIRD TICKETS ARE FOR KAMA'AINAS at a substantial discount. Get them today.
