Join Asia Society, The Asia Foundation, Commonwealth Club, and World Affairs for a unique dialogue featuring the leaders of four of the Bay Area?s most prestigious public affairs and non-profit organizations, who will look at the presidency of Donald J. Trump and what it will mean for America?s relationship with Asia and the world. Held within the first 100 days of the Trump Administration, the dialogue will examine more closely a persistent divide between California and the Bay Area, and the rest of the country, on the future direction of this nation. The dialogue will examine how the Bay Area, and the state more broadly, views America?s relationship with Asia, as well its place in the world on global issues such as trade, security and climate change. What are some of the primary issues of importance to the Bay Area?politically, economically, culturally?as it relates to US-Asia relations and are they similar or different from the rest of the country? Has the state and the region evolved differently from the rest of the country in how they perceive America?s relationship with Asia and the world, and if so, why?
