I am very grateful for what I have, but I will not be settled.
Contributing to the society brightens my life.

I enjoy serving the community and I encourage my colleagues to join me.

'The Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts' mission is to train modern performing artists and to become Asia's backstage and performing arts talent training base. They provide students with innovative, high-quality interdisciplinary education with a clear grasp of the world. I love performing arts since childhood; I had worked hard on Chinese dancing, modern dancing, drama and organizing rock band. I am very proud to be the Deputy Chairman of the Council; I will always contribute to the Academy for its vision and mission.
TOWN PLANNING BOARD – COMMITTEE
In Hong Kong, the city planning is to guide and manage the development and land use. The rationale behind is to promote health, safety, convenience and general welfare of the community, and to create a better organized, more efficient and more desirable living and working environment for the public.
Town Planning Board was established in 1992 and it is responsible for the layout designs of buildings in Hong Kong and the establishment of the district. Hong Kong Planning Department is the executive organization of Town Planning Board. According to the provisions of "Urban Planning Regulations", the Town Planning Board may ask the Director of Planning Department to prepare plans or blueprints in order to perform the functions prescribed by regulations.
Town Planning Board studies and consults on the planning. The decision will then be executed by the Planning Department. The Board will prepare layouts, diagrams and suggest suitable building types systematically in some regions according to Hong Kong Chief Executive's instructions.
As a member of the Town Planning Board, I dedicate myself in Hong Kong's urban planning. Although the tasks are challenging, they are meaningful and significant!
THE ART GROUP LEISURE AND CULTURAL SERVICES DEPARTMENT OF TRADITIONAL CHINESE PERFORMANCES – CHAIRMAN
I have loved Chinese culture and different kinds of Chinese Opera since childhood. The role of the Leisure and Cultural Services Department, Chinese Traditional Performing Arts group is to provide strategic advice on performing arts programs (including local, Mainland and overseas) for the LCSD, and formulate systematic and sustainable development strategies to identify and support new entrants and small arts groups.
To be appointed as the Chairman of the "Traditional Chinese performing arts group", and to be able to promote arts and culture that I love, make me really proud.
HONG KONG STRATEGY- VICE PRESIDENT
Hong Kong Strategy is a think tank formed by current and former Central Policy Unit part-time consultants, solely for the long-term development and strategy planning of Hong Kong. It's like a "students association" which conducts informal communication with the government officials from time to time. The think tank can somehow become the thermometer of the government as it can reflect the general public opinions on different policy issues for the government.
For me, it is a real pleasure to work with this group of elites to make our home a better place to live.
THE BETTER HONG KONG FOUNDATION
It was formed by influential Hong Kong business and community leaders to build greater international understanding between the East and the West by facilitating communications between Hong Kong, China and the global community. The Foundation is a privately-funded, non-profit making organisation and has no political affiliation.
I was born and raised in Hong Kong from grassroots echelon. Thanks to our education system, freedom, fair competition, and the opportunity for upward mobility in Hong Kong, I am able to establish my career and lead a meaningful life. So I definitely support the aim of "Better Hong Kong Foundation". I would have the opportunity to promote the core values of Hong Kong to the outside world, and to enhance the cooperation of Hong Kong and China with foreign markets.
我小时候从来没有想过能够拥有今天的一切,
但我坚信「别人能,我也能」;
珍惜每个上流的机遇。我小時候從來沒有想過能夠擁有今天的一切,
但我堅信「別人能,我也能」;
珍惜每個上流的機遇。
When I was young, I never thought that I could have everything today.
But I firmly believe that "others can, I can."
To treasure each opportunity.
