Right next to the 210 freeway in Old Town
Pasadena, there is an Italian restaurant resting at the corner of Pasadena Ave and
Colorado Blvd called Villa Sorriso. People
might walk past it treating it like an ordinary restaurant, but they are missing out on
a paradise right in front of them. Kenneth

President’s Message by David Woo
The other night I made two rice dishes. Why rice? It’s a near universal staple and probably in
two thirds of the world it may be the binding element of meals, of families, of communities and
societies. My first attempt was traditional Chinese fried rice. Memories come to mind when my
mother created the same dish in a small, dusty Arizona town, cultural light years from her Cantonese roots. (Did you know that rice was used in the construction of the Great Wall of China,
a mixture used in lieu of cement, which seems to have stood the test of time?) I have always
wondered why we place so much emphasis on food and on the comfort of food we are familiar
with. I suppose there is no place like home and that the meals we eat are a source of that connection.
So, I began with some shrimp, the little bay shrimp which Mark, my seafood purveyor assures me is frozen (but
still fresh, from being frozen very quickly after being caught). For some none obvious reason, I have trouble locating this
variety of shrimp in the Downtown Ralph’s market, hence it’s my wife who forages for it in Glendale or Hollywood.
That’s easy to use because there is little prep work, other than to wash it thoroughly. Then the leftover steak from a
prior meal is chopped up with the interminable question, should it be diced, sliced or in big chunks? I change my mind
on that preparation every time the dish is cooked. Add a little chicken which is already cooked and is the remains of a
rotisserie bird from Costco - one of the slam dunk bargains in the cooking world. The chunk question comes up again.
As I stir fry the meat part of the dish in canola oil (trying to maintain a veggie balance) it was easy to see that the dish
could all come together very well. Then the rice. There is a huge debate whether the rice should be freshly steamed or
cold, leftover portions. I have always thought that the real beauty of fried rice is the incorporation of left over portions
of food, hence cold rice makes sense. But some disagree, Wolfgang and Emeril among others. Seasonings include soy
sauce, two kinds, the dark, heavy soy favored by Filipino friends of mine and the light superior soy with the ubiquitous
Pearl River name, a Hong Kong discretion. Finally, scrambled egg and green peas are added and we have a dish which
can and has been eaten for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Next up was a Cuban rice dish, with kudos to Anita Lee. I took a fresh chicken, separated it into parts, musing
that my father who ran a grocery store and butcher shop would have been disappointed with my grappling with the
chicken breast. I can never figure what to do with that hard bone in the center, whether it is best to excise it completely,
chop through it or ignore it. He would have been satisfied with my careful dispersion of the wings, drumsticks, thighs
and backs, however. All of this, salted and heavily peppered, gets thrown into sizzling oil to brown before being set
aside. Slivered onions and sliced green peppers are added to the pan drippings still lingering in the skillet until they
have sweated out, a curious term which states the obvious, cook until they are wilted out. Then, in a twist which my
mother would never fathom, three cups of uncooked rice are added to the pan with chicken broth (canned, because
who has time in this day and age for broth made from scratch) and a full tablespoon of ground chili powder. The
chicken parts are scattered onto the rice mixture and brought to a boil, then cooked until the rice is fluffy and tender,
not “al dente” like the Italians favor in risotto. The result is something pretty far from that Southwestern town my
mother landed in, but classic in its own right.
The two dishes are emblematic of Los Angeles - two strong strands of ethnic heritage, culture which
bring hometown eats to this part of the planet. Do these dishes have to get along? Not really, each stands on its own,
but we would be far less content, rich without the both of them in our lives.

AAEDE’s Interns: Tiffanie Lee, Alex Hsu & Kenneth Drennon
As a third year undergraduate student at California State University, Los Angeles, I was given this
great opportunity to become an intern and be a
part of a non-profit organization at the Asian
American Economic Development Enterprise
(AAEDE). I am currently in the process of earning a bachelor’s degree in Business Administration, option in Marketing Management.
When I first started interning, I was given
several projects to complete throughout my internship involving business-related work. I have
learned to work with my peers and put together a
marketing plan for the Goodrich building, newsletter publication, hosting a job fair, tutoring
elementary/high school students and putting
together a profile of the San Gabriel Valley. The
major course classes I have taken at CSULA have
helped me prepare for some of the projects that
needed to be completed. I was able to incorporate
some of my skills into these projects. I wanted to
take a glimpse of the business world and AAEDE I enjoyed my time here and want to thank everydefinitely provided that for me. I like the fact that one at AAEDE for giving me this great opportuAAEDE is a non-profit organization because I nity and memorable experience. -Tiffanie Lee
have always wanted to see the development and
management of how non-profit organizations are
operated. AAEDE specializes in helping small
businesses help themselves. We contribute to
these businesses by hosting job fairs to give those
who are unemployed or employed an opportunity
to see a variety of careers that best suits them. We
also tutor elementary/high school students and
help them with any subjects they are not familiar
with.
Throughout my time here, I have successfully
improved on my time management and communication skills. Not only has these experiences prepared me for the business world, but I have also
obtained office etiquette. My mentor and coworkers have definitely welcomed me on my first
day and created a very friendly work environment.
When I declared my college major, without a
doubt I chose engineering. I chose engineering
not only because it was a field I enjoy, but also a
profession I thought I did not have to communicate with other people. I was never comfortable in
social activities; despite my large figure (I am
6’2”). I would be unable to blend in with the
crowd so I wandered away. Yet when I try to talk
to people, I always seem to make a bad impression. I wanted to improve on my verbal as well as
communication skills. Luckily AAEDE gave me
this opportunity to learn.
There were a few projects handed down to me
for this summer which entails: doing real estate
research, hosting a job fair, profiling businesses in
the San Gabriel Valley, and tutoring kids. As my
boss Norman was briefing me on this, my mind
somewhat got nervous and went to panic mode. I
was expecting deep conversations, but nothing
this heavy duty. However, there were other interns that are very helpful. They instructed me to
take these projects in small steps as to make it not
seem to be that bad at all.
So far, I’ve been doing well with the help of
my fellow co-workers and never knew I had this
personality inside of me. By the end of summer, I
think being shy was a foolish trait that I was glad
to have left behind. It would not only help me
communicate better with people in my future
engineering projects but also in casual talks as
well. I hope these projects could give me a new
insight on how businesses work. I feel that having
some business skills allow me to interact with
firms or developers more productively. –Alex Hsu
I enter into my 5th year of college at UCLA as
an Asian American Studies major, I realized I
need to obtain quality work experience so that I
may gain the necessary skills and experience to
make it in the real world. I applied to AAEDE
and worked hard to obtain this internship because I knew that this was a perfect opportunity
for me to take the next step and advance in my
career. Even though I am currently unclear of
what I specifically want to do with my career, I
know that AAEDE is a great stepping stone to
figure out what I want to do in life.
On my first day on the job, they explained that
they are a non-profit organization dedicated to
help economic support to Asian Americans and
others. They briefed me on many of their projects
they are working on to give back to the community such as tutoring Chinese elementary and
high school students and creating a job fair to
help many people in the community to start their knowing that I am giving back to the community
careers. I instantly knew that I would enjoy it here at the same time. -Kenneth Drennon
and would be able to gain the necessary skills to
advance in my career and at the same time, I get
to give back to the community.
I have tremendously grown to love working at
AAEDE because the work environment is so
pleasant here. Everyday is exciting because we get
to experience new situations and everyone that
works here is so polite and pleasant to be around.
When I walk into work early in the morning our
mentor, Helen Au, greets me with a smile and a
happy “Good Morning Kenneth!” I also feel a
sense of true teamwork within me and the other 4
interns. I feel that everyone is willing to help out
and have each other’s backs at all times and we
have bonded to become good friends through this
process. I truly enjoy coming into work everyday
because of the people I get to work with and

So he decided to use this chance to advance
on to something new. Eventually he invested more and started the other two restaurants, which are very successful too. We
asked him why he chose to run an Italian
restaurant; he claimed it was a random encounter.
When we asked him what some of his
secrets to success were, he replied with that
“You must stay humble at all times.” Even
though he is the owner of the restaurant,
Jack is willing to help out with valet, taking
customer orders or even clean up the bathroom. Jack takes a lot of pride in customer
service and he is willing to do anything to
make the customers’ experience a pleasant
one.
Jack was nice enough to give us some of
his wisdom on how to run a successful
business. He explained to us both since we
are so young, there are numerous of opportunities that lie ahead of us. Jack stated,
“We can not be afraid to take those opportunities, and when we do take them we
Page 4
have to put a 110% effort in and nothing
less.” He did not give out any cliché advices; instead he was genuine and formulated them from his personal experience.
Also, he explained that even if we are
willing to put in the effort, we are still going
to make mistakes. The secret to success is
not to dwell on those mistakes but move
past them and learn from them. Jack said to
us, “You have to be humble, when you
make a mistake you should admit that you
did something wrong, and learn from it ”
We had a terrific time interviewing Jack
at his restaurant. We got to enjoy the delicious food, had the pleasure to hear his personal stories and learned a lot about business in the process. We would like to thank
Jack for his time and his wisdom because
we both have learned so much and will try
to take what we learned today and apply it
into the business world. We had a great
time with Jack and encourage all of you to
try Villa Sorriso. It certainly will not disappoint.

Why Pay Rent When You Can Own!
By Tiffanie Lee
On February 11, 2012 at the El Monte Aquatic Center,
Cathy Bank in Conjunction with Operation Hope, hosted
“Why Pay Rent When You Can Own! New Home Buyers’
Workshop” to potential lenders providing great insights on
how to become a homeowner.
One of the great advantages of owning a home is that it
allows you to gain equity to leverage into a bigger investment.
Equity is the difference between the current market value of
the property and the amount the owner still owes on the mortgage. It is the amount that the owner would receive after selling a property and paying off the mortgage. With that being
said, it is important to know what banks are looking for nowadays and that is the income versus expense. Here are some
questions one should familiarize themselves with because these
are the questions the bank will be asking you:
1) How much can you afford on a mortgage payment?
2) What is my income?
3) What are my expenses?
4) How many years do you expect to live in that home?
During or after the thought process, distinguishing between your wants and needs and develop a frame work to
plan out financial statements to become a homeowner.
Also bear in mind, before owning the home, the borrower first has to obtain a mortgage. A mortgage is when
the borrower borrows money from a lender in order to purchase a home and promises to pay back. If the borrower
defaults the lender, the lender has the right to take ownership of that property.
When qualifying for a mortgage, the lender has to preapprove your credit, the last two years of your employment
history, the last two years of your rental history, monthly
average gross income, monthly average debt, down payments (checking and savings) and the closing costs. Make
sure you have all this information ready.
Know that there are several types of loans. Aside from
traditional fixed or an adjustable-rate loan, there are also
two main types of loans that a borrower can acquire; conventional loans and government backed loans. A conventional mortgage loan is offered with fixed or adjustable interest rates and some loans require mortgage insurance. On
the other hand, government loans include the Federal
Housing Administration (FHA) and the Department of
Veteran Affairs (VA) loans. These loans usually have low
down payment requirements since it is designed to help
those with low to moderate incomes. VA loans promise
mortgages for qualified veterans and active duty military
Page 5
personnel.
Once approved, one will begin to make mortgage payments which include principal, interest, taxes and insurance. The principal starts off as a small portion on your
monthly payment but as you continue to make payments,
the amount that goes to principle increases. Interest is the
cost of borrowing the money. The only way the interest
rate of your payment would interest is when you do not
pay your monthly dues on time. Taxes are paid by homeowners to local governments and charged with property
value. Depending on where you live, the tax amount varies. Insurance can help protect homeowners from any
financial losses due to fire, wind, natural disasters or other
hazards. Most lenders do require you to have insurance
on the home.
An important suggestion before purchasing a home is
finding a licensed real estate agent. Licensed Real Estate
Agents are committed to help advise you with your process of becoming a homeowner. Agents have a strict code
of ethics and are expected to have obtained a great level of
knowledge on the process of buying and selling real estate.
The guidance of a real estate agent can aid your financial
capacity, help search for available properties that better
suits you and your family, provide a great amount of information about the property, understand any financial processes and help close the sale of your home.
Cathy Bank offers homeownership counseling services
such as the Operation HOPE to provide homeowners
with these opportunities and prepare a preparation plan
to purchase a home. Operation HOPE is a HUD Approved Housing Counseling Agency. In hopes to meet the
needs of potential homeowners, Cathy Banks hopes to
achieve and convert renters into homeowners. For more

Getting A Head Start on Your Resume
By: Alex Hsu
Keeping a job in this market is hard, but getting a job is even
harder. We know there are hundreds of thousands of people who
are currently unemployed and are in desperate need to secure a stable income. With the lack of opportunities, coupled with high unemployment rates equates to stiff competition for many job seekers.
How can they successfully find a job?
The Employment Development Department of California
hosted a résumé workshop on May 3, 2012 at the East Los Angeles
Employment & Business WorkSource Center. The event went over
in detail on how to write a professional résumé and cover letter.
The presentation also covered on how to write résumé for CalJobs:
California’s Labor Exchange Systems.
Their general guideline for a successful essay is simple, the key is
to be as professional as possible and convey your ability in limited
space. Follow these guidelines:
1) Limit your résumé to one page and be as brief as possible in
stating information in each section of your résumé. Keep your résumé legible, that is no more than size twelve and less than size ten,
and avoid fancy fonts, Times New Roman or Arial are preferred.
2) Keep your contact information businesslike as well, avoid
nicknames and use appropriate email addresses. For example, [email protected] is better and more formal than [email protected]. If you include phone numbers, make sure it is
properly set up as well.
4) Always double check your contact information before you
send it in, any inaccurate information could cost you your interview
and possibly a new job. Also check your email or voicemail regularly
to stay informed.
5) Before you apply for a job, investigate it. Research its desired
qualifications and target key words that describe the company’s misPage 6
sion, values, and business. This way you can mold
your résumé specifically to that position and have
a better chance getting hired. Generally, you can
find this information in placement office, Internet, or company bulletins.
6) As you present your abilities on your résumé, relate to them the job you desire and show
what you can do for the company. One to three
sentences of your area of expertise and career interest are sufficient. However, avoid general statements and be as specific as possible. You want to
make your statements persuasive and yet concise.
7) When you include your education, write it
in chronological order starting with your most
recent degree. This section tells the employer that
your educational background will help you do
your job better and it is a proof of your qualification. People who are still in college or graduate
recently can extend this section to relate to their
career goal, otherwise keep it short to save space.
8) Your employment history is also a powerful tool to convince
potential employers to hire you. It makes you stand out from others. However, an organized employment history will give you a better chance to be hired. Start with the most relevant occupation and
be creative. This is the section where you prove to the interviewer
that you are worthy of the job. Also, do not include your previous
employers and their contact information in your résumé. It is
enough to say that references are available upon request at the bottom of your résumé. You can create a separate sheet in case an employer requests references during or after the interview.
9) Cover letters are an important part of your résumé. The purpose of it is to show that you exceed the requirements listed in the
job description. It should also show your interest in the position
and that you are available to accept the position if offered. Be positive and do not include your salary history unless it is required. You
can also be creative on cover letter as well; there is no specific format to follow. Make sure you include hiring manager’s name, if
available, and company name and position you are applying for.
Get to the point on your cover letter, anything extra is counterproductive and it could make your résumé weak.
The department also encourages people to apply in CalJobs. CalJobs provides a standardize résumé to employers and allows them to
search for matching candidates efficiently. Caljobs’ résumé is the
same for everyone, but most of the employers require you to provide a professional résumé. However, never use a CalJobs résumé
for a position outside the CalJobs system unless the employer requests it. It is generic and it is ineffective to describe people creatively.

A Glimpse of Alhambra from the Eyes of Stan Yonemoto
By Mei Han & Tiffanie Lee
It is not too often that we receive great
opportunities and even rare, the eye to
recognize one when it does arrive. Our
director had opened an invitation to all
the interns an opportunity which allowed
us to interview distinguished and accomplished individuals. We jumped at the
chance to interview Stan Yonemoto, Alhambra’s City Marketing Manager from
the most Business Friendly City of 2010.
We share to you, with great priviledge and
respect, the successes of Stan Yonemoto.
Stan Yonemoto was born in Japan and
moved to the United States when he was
seven years old. He attended nine different
elementary schools and later earned a B.A.
in Economics from UCLA. As a passionate
and skillful tennis player, Yonemoto, under a coincidental occasion, played with
the NCAA Champion Jimmy Connors
while studying at UCLA.
Married to his high school sweetheart
for over 32 years, Stan and his wife started
their own business in 1982, Yonemoto
Physical Therapy, in the city of Alhambra,
CA. After 12 years of working in Alhambra City, Yonemoto finally decided to become a part of it by establishing residence
there. As an active member of the community, Yonemoto later became the Marketing Manager of the Alhambra Chamber of
City and continues to contribute to the
growth of the city.
Being the third oldest urban city within
the Los Angeles County, Alhambra is a
self-service city unlike other adjacent contract cities. Through the collection of sales
tax, the city is able to fund its own police
department and other public facilities. By
being a self-service city, the city has a
greater managerial ability to oversee and
direct its resources. The city has large
working class population and consists of
52% Asians and 38% Hispanic and 10%
Caucasian.
When asked what makes the city of
Alhambra the most business friendly city
for the year of 2010, Yonemoto proudly
stated that it was the result of joint corpoPage 7
City of Alhambra, CA
rations of different entities. The notable
communication and corporation ability
amongst different departments has allowed
city officials to foster an efficient and beneficial atmosphere for business owners.
The city has a strong sense of united community involvement. The city officials hold a
monthly board meeting that invites not only
professionals in different fields and industries but also authorities from the Alhambra
Unified School District. The goals of the
joint board meeting are to avoid unnecessary
miscommunications between various social
entities and provide a medium for individual
entities to present aid for one another.
The city and its residents are particularly
involved in the betterment of educational
development. On April 16, 2009, the District was approved to receive $25 million
from the elementary bond. The bond was
implemented in the hope of furnish the
three high school campus. The Alhambra
city was one of the entities that made the
enrichment of Alhambra Unified School
District possible.
Not only local officials strive to develop
expedient programs, the city itself embraces
natural geographic advantages as well that
would assist businesses to achieve optimal
producer benefits. Located in the heart of
Southern California, Alhambra City is no
more than 20 minutes away from Downtown
Los Angeles. Due to its valuable and resourceful location, Alhambra city can provide excellent transportation services to its
business owners. It is in the midst of both
commercial and residential region, providing
its business owners the necessary population
density and available resources for economic
progress.
In terms of future development for
the city, Yonemoto forecasted a decreasing immigration trend in the next 10
years and emphasized on the continued
growth of retail stores. It is inevitable to
encounter an era of the service industries but the city of Alhambra believes it
is essential for the city to maintain its
retail entrepreneurships and secure
collection of sales tax that supports
most of the city development. As the
Marketing Manager, Yonemoto hopes
to prolong the business cycle not only
for smaller retailers but also for extensive retailers such as Costco and Target.
Towards the end of the interview
session, Yonemoto bequeaths the readers a piece of his knowledge not only
about how to become successful entrepreneurs but also as growing individuals. Yonemoto practices in the motto of
“being true to yourself at all times”
throughout his life and advices all to do
the same. As for business owners, he
also advices them to always remember
to give back to their community. Only
through the process of giving back to
the community, the business can grow
and flourish.
