ASEAN Youth Camp
Kun Yao was one of five student
delegates from Singapore who
attended the 2015 ASEAN Youth
Camp, held in Nakhon Pathom
Province. The biennial camp
aims to strengthen bonds in
the ASEAN region through the
younger generation. Kun Yao
had the opportunity to engage
with peers from different
countries and experience the
art of Thai drawing and painting. Through the cross-cultural
interactions, he learnt to appreciate different languages and social
and cultural norms, and found it especially interesting to discover
that many of them had a keen interest in ‘Singlish’.
Though we all come from different ASEAN
countries, we share more similarities than I
had thought. It was a great time of learning
from one another.”

Student exchange programme
One of the highlights of Maybelline’s time at La Trobe University
was attending a student tutorial group session and participating
in a lively discussion on the different types of infections and their
treatments. She also visited hospitals in Melbourne to observe the
local healthcare settings and processes, as well as understand
more about the unique challenges they faced.
Every student should not miss out on going for
exchanges or study trips. The new experiences
you’ll have while studying in a different country and
learning from another culture are simply priceless.”
