Renewing Ties with Alumni in Vancouver

Professor Shih Choon Fong, President of NUS, who was in Vancouver in November 2003 to attend a U21 conference, took the opportunity to host a luncheon for NUS alumni in British Columbia. Also at the luncheon were Associate Professor Teo Choo Soo, Director of NUS Office of Alumni Relations (OAR), Professor Liew Ah Choy, Director of NUS International Relations Office, and His Excellency, Consul General Bernard Baker (an NUS alumnus) and his wife Susan.

Arthur Yap, the chairman of the NUS Alumni, Vancouver Chapter, organised the luncheon. Alumni were treated to two video presentations, one on NUS Centennial Achievements and the other by OAR entitled OARsome Slices.

Prof Shih enthralled the 40 guests with his favourite analogy of the Atlantic salmon. He said: “We hope that, just like the steadfast and faithful Atlantic salmon, you, our alumni, will return to NUS and contribute to your alma mater, and bring your vitality and your spirit back to NUS and Singapore by sharing the knowledge and diverse experiences you have gained over here.”

Everyone enjoyed the lunch as well as the fellowship and bonding, and is already looking forward to meeting Prof Shih again when he next visits Vancouver.
