6a00e5520895f5883300e5539d53088833-150wiC100 presented key findings of its Opinion Survey 2012 to over 120 policy, business, academic, diplomatic, NGO, and non-profit leaders in Washington, D.C.

Chairman Dominic Ng introduced C100’s Principles of Guidance for Political Candidates on China-Related Issues. This statement encourages political candidates to refrain from China-bashing in upcoming election campaigns. Instead, C100’s Principles recommend the following actions: strengthen leader-to-leader understanding, dispel misperceptions, and encourage open communications to build mutual trust.

At the dinner that followed the presentation, Geoff Dabelko, Director of the Environmental Change and Security Program at the Woodrow Wilson Center, described the transformative impact of his participation in C100’s Civic Leaders Delegation to China in May.

The guest of honor, Congresswoman Judy Chu (CA-32), expressed gratitude to the Committee for its role in supporting the recent passage of House Resolution 683, a historic acknowledgment by Congress of the injustice of the Chinese Exclusion Laws.
