Jul 2017, Asia Student Leadership Conference (ASLC) 2017

In its sixth installment this year, ASLC 2017 is themed Smile: In Progress. The event was held in Singapore from 14 – 16 July 2017. It was attended by some 100 participants, including over 30 students from 8 participating countries, including Hong Kong.

“The ASLC weekend away in Singapore was a rewarding experience on many levels. It was so exciting meeting people from different countries. Most of all, we got to hear all about the many innovative and self-initiated campaigns with aims in targeting societal issues. The most important take home message was that: in order to make our mark in improving the society, we first have to change our mindsets and actions. Helping the society is not a commitment, it is a state of mind.”

 

Joey Chan, Year four student from the Faculty of Medicine

The Chinese University of Hong Kong

 
 

“At the ASLC I was infused with a spirit of volunteerism by speakers who gave talks surrounding the values of initiative, perseverance and sustainability. I was reminded that positive change did not have to be glamorous or extravagant by Raymond Huang, the founder of Heartware Network, who stressed the importance of integrity and humble initiative in making real change. Another speaker who led by example was Kathy Xu who founded The Dorsal Effect by innovatively convincing a shark-hunting community to turn to ecotourism. As a personal supporter of animal welfare, I was moved by the impact of her project, as well as her thoughtfulness as she critically evaluated it, questioning whether ecotourism would always be sustainable and responsible.

 

From being motivated to take small steps, to sustaining and renewing goals, to evaluating one’s own actions, I learned from the conference how to be a better leader and effectively contribute to society. Additionally, I made new friends from Bangladesh, Bhutan, China, Myanmar and Singapore. I thank BEAM for nominating me to represent Hong Kong and attend this conference.”

“Hosting students from over 10 countries, ASLC 2015 provided a wonderful opportunity for us to learn more about ourselves and others, which was really what the camp was all about – people. The many workshops and discussions led us to discover that the core of volunteerism and philanthropy lies with one’s love for other people, and I believe that we will all take home with us an ignited passion to do something about a cause we care deeply about, or at the very least an increased interest and understanding of the international community.”
