The mission of The Y.Elites Association is “to gather young elites; promote national studies; attend to various social topics, and become the think tank for current affairs”

 

Since its establishment, The Y.Elites Association has organized large scale high-end forums such as Y.Elites Forum, co-organized Boao Youth Forum for Asia (Hong Kong) and attained huge success. Our forums not only attracted global political and business leaders, and academia to par ticipate, but also gained widespread attention from the society and became flagship activities of The Y.Elites Association.

 

Furthermore, our Association is actively involved in community affairs and youth activities. We have organized various seminars and activities related to areas such as finance, poverty, youth property, retirement protection, third airport runway and innovative technology, inviting related government officials, renowned experts and scholars to share their views on these hot topics. The seminars and activities have also offered prime opportunities for our members to exchange opinions. In additions, we have also hosted and supported various large-scale youth activities, engaging local young people.

 

We have actively made policy suggestions to the HKSAR Government and developed ourselves as a youth think tank. Over the years, our Association has made recommendations on government policies. In addition, we contribute commentary ar ticles in local media such as The Sun, Hong Kong Economic Journal, Metro Daily, Mirror Post, Sing Tao Daily, Takungpao and Wenweipo on current issues such as environmental protection, youth, proper ty, family policies, education and industry development. Our views have received positive response from the society.
