Pacific Time was a weekly radio program that covered a wide range of Asian American, East Asian and Southeast Asian issues, including economics, language, politics, public policy, business, the arts and sports. With news bureaus in Bangkok, Beijing, and Tokyo,[1] it was the only public radio program devoted to Asian-American issues.[2]
Produced by KQED in San Francisco, California, the show was syndicated by as many as 37 other public radio stations in markets around the United States.[1] The show premiered in 2000 and was hosted by Nguyen Qui Duc until September, 2006, when Nguyen returned to Vietnam.[3] After Nguyen's departure it was hosted by K.
