He said: “I was excellently supported through my course by the careers service at 51福利社; for example, they helped me arrange my involvement in the study China programme. I benefited greatly from this experience, becoming a global graduate by going overseas, doing a course which focused on Mandarin and economics and coming back and being able to share my knowledge with other students. When I speak to other graduates, they’re quite envious of the experiences I’ve had.”
