“我刚刚完成了帮助我们领事处（非常棒的团队）做指纹鉴定，并呼叫一些学生签证申请人的工作，并有机会见到许多到美国从事商务、学习和观光旅行的人。他们对美国的兴趣让我倍受鼓舞。他们积极评价他们希望在短期和长期居留期间做的事。这种“前线” 和真实地参与连接美国和中国人民的经验——哪怕只有一两个小时——使我更加感激我们领事人员每天在铸造双边关系中所扮演的角色。看看这些照片吧。”

“I just finished helping our Consular Section (what a great team!) with fingerprinting and calling some student applicants, and had a chance to meet many people who are traveling to the U.S. for business, study and tourism.  Their interest in America heartens me; they spoke positively of what they hoped to do during short and long term stays.  Having a “frontlines” experience of this sort and participating in actually connecting people in America and China  - even if just for a couple of hours – has made me even more appreciative of the role our consular staff plays every day in forging the bilateral relationship.  Check out the pictures.”
