2 Welcome to AYLTLC 2016 Distinguished Participants & Advisors, We would like to extend our warmest welcome and invite you to be part of this annual gathering of student leaders around the world. It is our privilege to be hosting the Asian Youth Leaders Travel and Learning Camp (AYLTLC) 2016 for the 5th time here in Singapore. AYLTLC aims to bring student leaders worldwide, through engaging activities, to enhance their abilities in cross- cultural interaction and cooperation, which will further equip them to be effective leaders. In addition, participants will be able to understand more about Singapore - a multiracial, multilingual and multicultural society from various perspectives. Nevertheless, what they will learn here may not only be unique to Singapore, but also applicable to their home countries as well as the increasingly interconnected and interdependent world. We always remind ourselves that we are hosting a camp with the brightest student talents who are indeed the leaders of tomorrow. Once again, we look forward to meeting you at AYLTLC Yours Sincerely, Organizing Committee of Asian Youth Leaders Travel and Learning Camp 2016

3 About Singapore Situated at the south of Malay Peninsula, shrouded by tropical sunshine, Singapore has been described as Asian Economic Miracle, a thriving cosmopolitan city brimming with racial diversity as well as a fine mixture of culture, language, arts, and architecture. Singapore rose to prominence largely due to her strategic position as a trading port, a stable government and its pro- business policies and institutions, which is of paramount importance for Multi- National Companies (MNC) to gain confidence to invest in. Through the years after independence, the nation has developed its economic prowess and gains much respect in terms of international standing. Educational quality and a diverse culture has always been Singapore s pride. Singapore witnessed clashes and integrations of various cultures and has since cultivated a unique cultural meting pot. While continuing to act as the regional center, embracing the diversity while maintaining her uniqueness, Singapore is building the reputation as a home for all.
