As a young university, HKUST does not yet command a roster of
deep-pocketed alumni. But in November, our MBA alumnus Liu Sing-
cheong and his wife Ms Wong Po-yuk donated HK$10 million to
establish scholarships for students from developing countries. Mr Liu
is a corporate advisor to the HKUST Business School and a Director of
the HKUST R and D Corporation. The award is the largest single alumni
donation yet received.
The donation was among several received to set up an array of
scholarships to attract high-flying students to HKUST. These include
gifts from Mr Robert Kuok (HK$50 million), The Joseph Lau Luen
Hung Charitable Trust (HK$20 million), Mr Cheung On Tak (HK$7.5
million), Dr Lau Fu Wing, Managing Director of Chiu Hing Construction
& Transportation Company Ltd (HK$5 million), D H Chen Foundation
(HK$5 million), Family of the late Professor Samuel Chanson (HK$2.5
million), and Mr Lee Wan Keung, Chairman of Lee & Man Paper
Manufacturing Ltd (HK$2 million).
The scholarships will enable top local, mainland and international
students, regardless of financial circumstances, to enjoy the opportunity
to study with HKUST’s world-class faculty. They will help attract the
best and the brightest to Hong Kong to participate in building its future.
Scholarship programs established by Li & Fung (1906) Foundation
Ltd (HK$8 million) and Mr Gilbert Hung (HK$3 million) will also
enable local students to take part in exchange programs at leading
overseas institutions.
In addition, gifts were received to support the University’s overall
development. They include HK$20 million from Lo Ka Chung
Foundation, HK$6 million from Chiang Chen Industrial Charity
Foundation, HK$3 million from Mr and Mrs Lee Siu Lun, HK$3 million
from the late Mr Lung Kai Lam and Madam Lung Law Pui Yu, HK$2
million from Mr Ben Wong, and HK$2 million from The Chan Family
Charitabale Trust.
