Extractions: Cancers in Asian-Americans and Pacific Islanders: Migrant Studies Frederick P. Li, M.D. and Karen Pawlish, M.P.H Geographic Variation in Cancer Incidence Rates . Substantial geographic variations in cancer incidence rates have been found within and among nations. Data show that cancers of the lung, breast, colon/rectum, ovary, and prostate tend to be more common in developed countries In contrast, cancers of the cervix, stomach, and liver are more common in some developing countries, including most Asian nations . Among migrants, cancer incidence rates trend toward patterns in the country of adoption . These alterations in cancer rates are probably due to environmental and lifestyle changes, such as diet and cigarette smoking. Cancer rates can differ even within nations. In the U.S., lung cancer mortality rates are significantly higher in the southeast, where tobacco is cultivated and cigarette smoking rates are high . In China, lung cancer mortality rates are high in the north, in areas with widespread industrial and household pollution from fossil fuels . There are also large regional differences in nasopharyngeal cancer mortality rates in China, with higher rates in the southeast among the Cantonese; explanations may be genetic and dietary factors

Extractions: (Ref: A sian-Americans in Utah: A Living History , complied by John H. Yang.) The Japanese-American communities of northern Utah date back to the early 1870s. Many were employed by the railroads or in farming and mining operations. Local Japanese labor agents often arranged employment for Japanese immigrants. Buddhist services were conducted on a regular basis as early as 1912 and Buddhist congregations were established in Ogden and in Salt Lake City. Recent Developments (Ref: Asian-Americans in Utah: A Living History , complied by John H. Yang.) Additional waves of Asian immigration to Utah include Filipino, Korean, Asian Indian, and Vietnamese groups. Between 1975 and 1990, some 12,000 refugees and immigrants came to Utah from Southeast Asia in the aftermath of the war in Vietnam. Numerous Islamic immigrants have arrived from Southwest Asia to make their homes in Utah. Since 1990, the Asian-American population in Utah has increased 44.4% compared to an overall state population increase of 29.6% over the same period.

Extractions: 27th Fighter Wing Public Affairs CANNON AIR FORCE BASE, N.M. I can recall a conversation with a young man at a store some time ago. I had recently been commissioned in the Air Force. When I asked him if he worked in the local area, he said, "I work on base." He was apparently an active-duty military member. When he asked me where I worked, I replied, "I work on base as well." But before I could finish my response, he quipped, "Oh, so you work at the BX." There are many Asian-Americans who work in the civilian sector on base and provide a valuable service to military people and their families. Despite what some people might think, there are also many Asian-American citizens who dedicate their lives to the United States through military service. Before I joined the military, I told a man in a business office that I was born in the Philippines and my family and I immigrated to America when I was 13. He was proud to say he was stationed in the Philippines when he was in the military and knew a great deal about the country.
