Professor Wei Liang has been Recently Interviewed and Quoted by Credit Suisse (Feb.29, 2012)
Professor Wei Liang has been recently interviewed and quoted by Credit Suisse (Feb.29, 2012).
In the Global Trends section of the magazine, Wei Liang, associate professor at the Monterey Institute of International Studies, was quoted on the fact that China-watchers are quick to note that since 9/11, the US has largely tuned its back on the region to focus on the Middle East, Pakistan and Afghanistan. Obama has only recently changed this position, affirming traditional military alliances with Japan, South Korea, Australia, New Zealand and Taiwan. Professor Liang commented that “The Australia announcement sent out a clear message about the US’s strategic role in the region” and that “The US is an Asia Pacific nation and it will get involved in the region.”
