The Brooklyn Nets view connecting with the city's growing Chinese community as a good business move.

"When you think of Brooklyn air jordan 11 midnight navy , it's such a diverse market," said Brett Yormark, Nets CEO. "As a franchise, we aspire to be global, and connecting with China in general is something that is very important for management and ownership. It's also very important for the NBA.

"There are many Chinese Americans that call Brooklyn home, so they're a very big part of our community, and as such jordan 11 midnight navy unc , a big part of what we do at the Barclays Center," Yormark said. "Given the fact that we've played in China four times in the last few years, our merchandise is a top-10 seller there.

"The United States and China are working very hard to build a major relationship built on cooperation," said Zhang Qiyue, the Chinese consul general in New York. "And basketball games, or any sport, bring our people closer together.

"Over the years jordan 11 retro win like 82 , the NBA has really attracted players and fans from all over the world, proving that sport can actually transcend national, linguistic and cultural boundaries," Zhang said.

Yormark and Zhang spoke at a press conference on Sunday at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, where the Nets co-hosted "A Celebration of Chinese Culture".

The annual event is co-hosted by the Sino-American Friendship Association (SAFA).

For several years, the two organizations have been working together to introduce Chinese culture to the National Basketball Association.

Li Li, SAFA's executive vice-president jordan 11 retro midnight navy , said the organization began its relationship with the Nets in 2008, when a Chinese player name Yi Jianlian was still with the team. The Nets played in New Jersey at the time.

"When Yi Jianlian was with the team, we started the conversation about how to support the team and get it to reach out more to the Chinese community," Li said. "This is the seventh year that we've done an annual celebration of Chinese culture.

"The great part about this event is the Nets have a mission," Li said. "They advocate for an American sports team being introduced to Chinese people in the US, but they also explore opportunities and partnerships with China globally as well.

"To have Chinese culture mixed into this tradition is definitely a good way to address the American fans," she said.

There were several Chinese touches interspersed throughout the game on Sunday jordan 11s win like 82 , in which the Nets beat the Los Angeles Lakers, 107-99, starting with the singer of the national anthem and the player introductions.

Also attending were Peter Zhang, president of SAFA; Zhang Meifang, deputy consul general in New York; and Martin Golden, a state senator from New York.

"As we all know jordan 11s midnight navy , it was the Ping Pong Diplomacy that helped melt the thick ice between the US and China," said the consul general. "NBA superstars are actually household names in China, and basketball is now becoming the icing on the cake in the relationship between the two countries. Under this backdrop, this afternoon's celebration is all the more significant."

"Chinese Americans and China in general are very dear to our heart, and we look forward to fostering our relationship and growing it in the years to come," Yormark said.

SEOUL, Oct. 29 (Xinhua) -- South Korea posted a current account surplus for 31 months in a row due to robust export growth cheap jordan 11 win like 82 , central bank data showed Wednesday.

Current account surplus was 7.62 billion U.S. dollars in September, up from a 7.2 billion-dollar surplus in August, according to the Bank of Korea (BOK). It marked the 31st consecutive month of surplus.

For the first nine months of this year, the surplus reached 61. 86 billion dollars, up from 55.04 billion dollars tallied in the same period last year.

The BOK had expected the current account surplus to reach 84 billion dollars in the whole year of 2014, topping the previous record high of 79.9 billion dollars tallied in 2013.

Brisk exports led the September surplus. Exports, which account for about half of the economy cheap jordan 11 midnight navy , grew 4.2 percent from a month earlier to 50.98 billion dollars in September.

On a customs basis, outbound shipments of steel products and ships surged more than 20 percent, leading the export growth. Machinery exports expanded 15.8 percent, but those for consumer electronics and oil products fell 17.6 percent and 3.3 percent each.

Imports increased 4.1 percent to 43.25 billion dollars in the cited period, sending the September trade surplus to 7.73 billion dollars. It was up from a 7.37 billion-dollar surplus in August.

Consumer goods imports rose 23.4 percent, with imports of foreign luxury cars and grain jumping more than 30 percent. Imports of mineral and crude oil declined 11.8 percent and 0.3 percent each.

Despite the solid monthly performance in exports, the third- quarter exports under the GDP data standard slid 2.6 percent compared with the prior quarter jordan 11 win like 82 for sale , marking the biggest decline since a 4.3 percent fall tallied in the fourth quarter of 2008.

The service account balance, which measures the flow of travel, transport costs and royalties, posted a deficit of 280 million dollars in September jordan 11 midnight navy for sale , down from a 730 million-dollar deficit in August.

Travel income reached an all-time high of 1.77 billion dollars in September amid growing visits of Chinese tourists to South Korea. The record income helped reduce the deficit in travel account from 770 million dollars in August to 210 million dollars in September.
