Hong Kong - The United States must be a part of pan-Asian institutions to safeguard the region's future, former US secretary of state Condoleezza Rice said during a lecture at the Chinese University of Hong Kong Friday.

Addressing an over-capacity crowd, Rice said that the US, as a Pacific-rim nation, is therefore an Asian power, adding it is an anchor for stability, prosperity and democracy in the region.
