Event Highlights

Booths

There were 13 booths in the event. Each booth represented one country/city. These countries included Australia, Singapore, China, Korea, Spain, Austria and Croatia, the Netherlands, Sweden, France, UK, Canada, USA and Hong Kong. The reception and enquiry counter was set up at the Hong Kong booth. The inbound exchange students were responsible for their country’s booth. They used photos and drawings to decorate their display boards in order to showcase the country’s facts, life and culture such as its location, accommodation, food, climate and most importantly, information about the partner universities from that country.

Apart from display boards, traditional food or snack and games were available at the booths.  

This year, 3 prizes were presented to the winners of the Best Country Booth Award at the closing ceremony of the event. The winners were USA, Canada and Australia chosen by the guests and visitors.
