Lion-Parkson Foundation (LPF) organized a motivational seminar on 20 June for the students shortlisted for its scholarships and educational loans for the 2011 academic year. 17 students who had made it through to the final interview attended the two hours seminar which was held at our Head Office. Puan Sri Chelsia Cheng, LPF Chairman; Professor Liu Shi, Head of Department of Chinese Language & Literature in Tshinghua University in Beijing; Dr Chua Siew Kiat, LPF Trustee and Mr Kelvin Phuan, Senior Manager, CeDR Consulting Sdn Bhd which is a training provider under the Group, were the speakers for the seminar.

Students were briefed on the Group’s management philosophy and business operations by Mr Phuan, and listened to the talks by Puan Sri Chelsia, Professor Liu Shi and Dr Chua who shared their vast knowledge and experience. Being adaptable, not afraid to take risks, getting your hands dirty and learning from failure were some of the important factors for success highlighted by the eminent speakers.

Upon graduation, the scholarship holders will join the Group whilst the recipients of the educational loans will also be offered employment where available and in such case, the loan will be converted into a scholarship.
