The US-China Policy Foundation held its 15th annual Gala Dinner,
China in Washington 2010, on November 15th 2010. The gala was held
at the Willard Intercontinental Hotel in downtown Washington, DC from
7pm to 9pm, with a pre-dinner reception beginning at 6:30pm. The dinner
recognized the ongoing efforts of USCPF and others to improve U.S-China
relations.
We were pleased to include Ambassador Zhang Yesui and Deputy Chief
of Mission Deng Hongbo as honored guests.
Each year, we are excited to honor individuals who have made a distinguished
contribution to U.S.-China relations. This year, the USCPF honored
FedEx, The Hershey Company, and China Telecom Americas, Corp, for
achievement in their respective U.S-China business pursuits.
The foundation is also extremely grateful to all the donors and guests
who are so crucial in supporting our ongoing efforts.
