From 5:30 pm to 7:30 pm on October 26th, the Phoenix Mayoral Candidate Debate for the Asian-Pacific community was held at Luk Fook Restaurant. Nearly 300 Asian-Pacific Phoenix citizens from more than a dozen countries, including China, Japan, the Philippines, and Vietnam, participated in the event. Former Arizona Representative Huang Shijun and Chairman of the Greater Phoenix Chinese Overseas Chinese Association Deng Chaoju presided over this event. Representatives from eight Asia-Pacific regions first took the stage to speak. Chinese representative Deng Hezheng spoke and introduced the situation of the Chinese in Phoenix City, and also strongly supported the holding of the debate. The new Phoenix mayor will be voted on on November 8, with two mayoral candidates, Wes Gullett and Greg Stanton, competing in the final round. The two candidates regard community safety and education as their main service projects after taking office. Citizens in the Asia-Pacific region raised questions on how to protect the interests of small economic entities and promote international economic cooperation with other Asia-Pacific countries. Greg Stanton put forward a very specific plan, believing that Phoenix's 10 sister cities should not only limit cultural exchanges, but also strengthen economic cooperation. This will be his important goal in developing sister city relations in the future. Visgulit said that lowering taxes and urban management costs to reduce the burden on citizens is the key to development. The most profound memory in the debate was hearing Vesgulit's "Cut, Cut, Cut...". At nearly 8 o'clock in the evening, the debate ended successfully. I looked forward to the participation of the Asia-Pacific Phoenix City People's Revolution in action and sacredly voted their favorite mayoral candidate with a vote in their hands.
