According to a published article by the South China Morning Post, the assailant of the murder in NYC fled the scene and remains unknown. The victim of the said murder in NYC, who was originally from Nepal, was described by neighbors and friends as a hard-working Uber driver and a model immigrant who was dedicated to helping Asian orphans.
The murder in NYC has raised concerns among foreign students who are currently applying to American universities, as they fear the country’s history of violence.
A New Law That Confuses Chinese Students
In a published article by VOA News, the law restricts cooperation between the institutions and their counterparts in China and several other countries.
Many people only learn about the law through news reported in China, and there is confusion about how it will be implemented. Chinese students in particular feel anxious and uneasy about the law.
The law prohibits state colleges and universities in Florida from accepting gifts or grants from colleges or universities based in China, Russia, Iran, North Korea, Cuba, Venezuela, and Syria. It also restricts partnerships and agreements with these countries unless authorized.
