2. Young people are the future of our society. The HKSAR Government is committed to
nurturing the next generation not only through conventional education, but also through
diversified learning, training and development opportunities that match their abilities,
aspirations and education levels. In this regard, we have initiated a number of measures
in our new academic structure to offer more opportunities and wider choices for our
young people to experience diversified post-secondary education. Our ultimate goal is to
instill positive values in our young people, enhance their competitiveness and cultivate
their interests in diverse fields so as to achieve whole-person development.
I commend AIESEC Hong Kong for organizing various programmes which enable our
young people to explore and develop their leadership potential while making positive
contributions to society. The invaluable experience gained from participating in these
activities empowers our young people to develop their vision, creativity and
international perspectives which are essential to meet the future challenges of our
global village.
I congratulate AIESEC Hong Kong on its achievements in the past year and I wish you
every success in scaling new heights in the future.
