Georgia Shouts "How 'Bout Them Asians!"
University of Georgia Bulldog fans like to holler "how 'bout them Dawgs" when rooting for their athletic teams. All Georgians, regardless of their sports preferences, should be rooting for the Asian economies, particularly China.
More than three-fourths of the total import volume processed through the Port of Savannah during the current fiscal year arrived from Asia. Moreover, just over half of the total export volume during the same period was bound for Asia. [Source: Connect Savannah]
Remember, the overall economic impact Georgia's ports have on the state is enormous, and much of that volume is due to trade, both imports and exports, with Asia, and China in particular.
To say Georgia is a stakeholder in Asia's growth in a mild understatement.
