Dawn Xiao Yan Li
Author of book "Chinese Women in Love and Marriage"
Dawn Xiaoyan Li graduated with a medical degree from
Beijing Medical University
,
China
in 1983. She emigrated to
New Zealand
in 1991. In early 1997,
Dawn Xiaoyan left
New Zealand
for
Hong Kong
to work in an international medical publisher as a senior editor.
In 1999, Dawn Xiaoyan left the publisher and set up Asian Promise
with her British husband Richard Kaser.
Dawn and her family is now living in Melbourne Australia since
2007.
Asian Promise is a dating
website that helps Western men and Chinese ladies
to meet for love and marriage.
Since its launch, it has served thousands of members and
has helped hundreds of people
find love and marriage.
From the first day of Asian Promise till now, Dawn Xiaoyan has
focused all her attention on it. She
has counseled
many
Chinese ladies and Western men
on personal matters of love and relationships on a daily basis
through emails and telephone calls, and annual workshops
in China.
In her annual workshops in
China, she teaches her
customers to find true love and introduces
Western thoughts
about love and marriage
to them.
In 2004, Dawn Xiaoyan put her invaluable experience from Asian Promise
and her own cross cultural relationships into a book for Chinese
readers. It was published
in Hong Kong entitled
"Connecting
You to Love"
(in traditional
characters)
by
"Cosmos
Books HK"
in May 2005 and
in mainland
China
entitled
"Finding
True Love Online"
(in
simplified characters)
by
"China
Youth Press"
in January 2006.
The book helps
Chinese
reform/improve the old
traditions through innovation of Internet dating, as well as
helping Chinese correctly understand the Western attitudes on love
and marriage.
In late 2005, Dawn Xiaoyan
completed her second book "Love
is a Choice - Modern Marriage & Lasting Love"
for Chinese readers. The book helps Chinese to achieve a happy
marriage through a modern approach. It has been published as an
e-book by Asian Promise in 2006 and as a printed copy by "Chinese
Women Publisher" in 2007. Some of the contents have been published
periodically in "Marriage and Family", a famous Chinese magazine
in China
and owned by the
All-China Women's Federation. In the mean time, Dawn Xiaoyan has
become a regular column writer for "Marriage and Family".
Dawn Xiaoyan believes love is not constrained
by national boarders, but love needs understanding. Building the
love bridge between the East and West has always been the goal of
Dawn Xiaoyan's work. She also aims to use her unique perspective
to help Westerners to understand Chinese women and their love. In
her third book
"Chinese
Women in Love and Marriage" Dawn Xiaoyan
has
used lots of true stories
to illustrate
her views and guides for
Western men,
who want to achieve
successful cross-cultural relationships with Chinese ladies.
"Chinese Women in Love and Marriage"
will be a practical guide for Western men, as well as a useful
reference book for Chinese study.
Dawn
Xiaoyan has been included in "Great Chinese People Overseas Series
(New Zealand Volume)", published by Global Chinese Press, in 2006.
This book consists of stories from two hundred outstanding Chinese
migrants and has received great attention from both New Zealand
and Chinese governments.
In her spare time, Dawn Xiaoyan like reading, writing and chatting
with people. However the most enjoyable things for Dawn are
spending time with her family and Scottish Country Dancing!
