What intrigues our youths about China? Which aspects of China excite them and what are some of their burning questions about the rising nation?
In line with the theme for Young Leaders Programme, “Tomorrow’s China, Today”, Business China organised an Expert Sharing for about 200 tertiary students to better prepare them for flourishing China. The event was held on 27 March 2010 at Singapore Management University.
Guest-of-Honour was Minister of State for Trade & Industry and Manpower, Mr Lee Yi Shyan. Other personalities who participated in the sharing were Mr Zhong Sheng Jian, Chairman and CEO, Yanlord Land Group (listed on Forbes “The World’s Billionaires”), Mr Lim Ming Yan, CEO, The Ascott and Mr Tan Seng Chai, Senior VP of HR, Capitaland Ltd. (For details, please refer to attached Annex.)
It was an opportunity for the youth attendees to ask questions and to hear from three successful personalities, as they shared tips on the route to a successful career in China.
