Chinese Student Society Launch and Chinese New Year Party

The CSS has recently held a New Year Party to celebrate the "Spring Festival" with all Chinese students, staff and other nationalities friends on 25th January 2013.They have used their own way to send their best wishes to everybody.

Every guest was welcomed with a HongBao by the CSS(Chinese Student Society) team members as the HongBao stands for prosperity in China.

PEACOCK DANCE

Peacock Dance is the classical Chinese dance. Two beautiful Chinese girls form ERCI performed the dance gracefully as the party begins.  It is a very elegant dance with classical music showcasing graceful and sophisticated Chinese Culture.  

FASHION SHOW

Another highlight was the fashion show. 8 students wore various traditional clothes from Qing Dynasty to the Republic of People. Chinese culture was fully exhibited during the show. Audience was also amazed by the beauty of the clothes.

VIETNAMESE SINGING

The support of our friends—Vietnamese Student Society and Indian Student Society was gratefully appreciated. Their guitar player had played it very well along with the wonderful singing. The motivation they had explained the spirit of teamwork among diversified nationalities.  

BEATBOX

The whole party's highlight was the beatboxing performance. The talented student made all sorts of music sounds by only using his mouth. His professional performance perfectly rocked everyone's heart. He also managed to show Gangnam Style in a very different way, which absolutely opened audience's eyes.   

Thanks to our Emcee, it's impossible to hold a successful party without their active performances.

The CSS committee was honored to have the opportunity to organize this event and through this platform, displayed the esprit-de-corp spirit among not only the Chinese students but also peers from other nationalities across the globe.

CEO Forum

(19^th November 2012)
On 19th November 2012, our CEO forum was held at 7 pm in Spring Singapore Auditorium.


The event received overwhelming response where more than 600 people attended the seminar. Many of them are working professionals and students yet with great interest they came early to get a closer spot to the speaker.

Mr Andy Ong, CEO of ERC Holdings, as usual gave an inspirational and insightful speech to the audience highlighting the recent happenings in today’s property market, how we can cope with the rapid changes and what is the valuable knowledge derived from the market situations.

With his up-to-date market analysis and insights, Mr Andy Ong candidly shared with the audience on his views and strategies for the upcoming year ahead. At the end of his sharing, the audience was given the opportunity to have a Q & A session with Mr Andy Ong. It was such an interactive exchange of questions and views among the audience and Mr Andy Ong, that the Q & A session almost overran the programme.

Mr. Andy Ong's powerful speech and informative Q & A session were the highlights of the event especially when he shared his personal experiences in his recent globetrotting trips in various countries and his personal observations and analysis.

The audience is looking forward to the next CEO Forum in Mar 2013 at Marina Bay Sands where a few other CEOs & successful leaders will also be speaking alongside with Mr Andy Ong, for yet another insightful and interactive session of information and insights.
