Mr. Gilbert Hung Met with Recipients of Hung Choh Jan Fong Scholarships and Bursaries
The Hung Choh Jan Fong Scholarship and Bursary Endowment Fund was established by Mr. Gilbert HUNG in 2005 and named after his mother. The Fund supports students to participate in overseas exchange, and over the years, over 100 students have benefited from the Fund. Exchange locations include Sweden, Poland, France, Netherlands, Hungary, United Kingdom and the US.
The recipients expressed their gratitude to Mr. Hung for his generous support and shared the invaluable experience and insight that they gained during their oversea exchange. Other than studying, they had the opportunity to meet new friends and visit different places which have broadened their horizons.
In the meeting, Mr. Hung and Mr. Elms gave advice to the students on career planning as well as offering them “tips” to become a responsible and respectable global citizen. The students were inspired by their sharing and have greater confidence to meet future challenges with optimism and positive spirit.
