Thoughts after attending the "Eminent Speaker Series"

Today, I attended the "Eminent Speaker Series" organised by Business China and Lianhe Zaobao. The 2 guest speakers were Mr Qian Gang and Mr Jin Wei-Tsun.

I don't have time to write a full article, but this quote about education from Mr Jin Wei-Tsun really struck me as being a good description of education. Mr Qian Gang gave a good summary of the development of the Chinese media and its relationship with the Chinese government. Mr Jin Wei-Tsun gave a global perspective on the role of traditional media and a commentary on how linking GDP growth to populace happiness is flawed.

When you are small, cultivate your character,

When you are a kid, strengthen your sense of right and wrong,

In your teenage years, fight for your dreams,

When you are an adult, accumulate good deeds.
