On 'Beijinger to open shopping mall in Milwaukee'

Two suggestions

"Toward" (name of the Chinese company) sounds awfully meaningless. Rename it "Forward" Group. "Amesia" (name of mall) sounds too much like "Amnesia" which could mean that customers are being told to forget the mall. It could become a laughing stock.

Beijinger to open shopping mall in Milwaukee
I am a fourth generation American and a business owner. I welcome the potential economic growth in my backyard. Business has been slow in this area and Wisconsin is fortunate to have Amesia opening its door in Milwaukee. I too will be there on opening day to welcome our new neighbors and their business. Bring it on... I agree on the idea of "Forward" vs. "Toward": different meaning, more progressive. It should also do market research on the name "Amesia", which sounds awkward and forced.

Welcome, Chinese business

I am from Milwaukee and I think a Chinese market will be great for the city. I also believe that the business will be very good as well. Milwaukee has a very diverse population and I think anyone would feel comfortable in this city. Milwaukee has 70,000 college students and I suggest marketing the Chinese market in student newspapers. Students are good at word-of-mouth advertising. I will be there on opening day! Good Luck!

Better stay in China

Stay in china and help your own country. Anti-Chinese sentiment is strong overseas.

Bad investment

My gut feeling tells me that it'll be a failure! Cheap prices do not necessarily mean profitability. It's in the mid-west with a miserable cold prairie climate!

Don't invade America

We Americans love Chinese people and the creation of jobs. Just don't invade America little by little.
