This morning was very enriching to learn about the impact of international trading between the USA and China. It is wonderful to learn through statistics that the USA shows itself as a pungent economical power. The world of finances is incredibly complex for me to understand, but today was definitely a shock and a million reasons to be proud of this country and all that offers. I grew very interested in learning how and why are various multi-million dollars building projects going on at the same time in the metropolitan are of Los Angeles. Does East Asia investor have anything to do with this? What kind of business are being brought to LA?
On other topic, I am still sadly surprised why the USA is sending empty boxes to China, when we should be exporting goods and services, instead of being labeled as the city with the highest consumerism rate in North America. on the other hand, I am impressed with the incredible infrastructure and effective management system that both L.A. and Long Beach Ports possess. The professional and powerful insight that Mr. Chaung presented on International trading and the economical impact East Asia has on the Los Angeles area makes Angelenos very proud. I was amazed abut how just a "small" sector of the economy handled at the port requires such a huge amount of resources and how these resources impact the distribution and production of goods and services ; stimulating the economy and bringing more jobs and well being to communities.
