On September 2, President Sam, Past President Grace, Past President Webster and President Elect Eliza met with the outgoing “cabinet” of the Rotaract Club of HKU Lap-Chee College International at the Indonesian restaurant, Kaum: Potato Head, in Sai Ying Pun. Lap Chee members included Crystal (fellow), outgoing President Anushka, Bobby, Cindy, Gabin and Anuj. Cindy, from Jakarta, helped to order the food, and explained to us the dishes and how they would be served in her native country. Over the course of the dinner, we learned about our Rotaract friends’ studies and career plans, and life on-campus. The new Rotaract leadership will be recruited in the coming month and announced to our Club members!
On October 3, Past President Sally Oh and Rotaractor Bobby Zhang of Rotaract Club of HKU Lap Chee College International joined Rotarians and families and Rotaractors in Discovery Bay for the first beach cleanup event of this Rotary Year. The event, titled “#OneTonneLess – Beach Cleaning Programme”, aims to remove at least one tonne of ocean trash each year along the shorelines of Hong Kong. Sally and Bobby reported that they found the event meaningful and plan to join subsequent sessions if time allows.
