The Commission on Higher Education encouraged student leaders from publicand private universities in Thailand to attend The 13th AsiaPacific Student Services Association International Conference 2012, on the topic:“Global Citizenship: Challenges, Opportunities and Responses.” Theconference was held on July 5-8, 2012 at De La Salla University, Manila,Philippines, and was organized by the Institute of Student Affairs (ISA) of theAsia Pacific Student Services Association (APSSA*).
For this event, Stamford sent three representatives to join theInternational Conference who were Mr.Philip Songkran Upton (President ofSSO) who has received a scholarship from the Commission on Higher Education, Ms.Oomjit Buangam (Vice President of SSO) and Ms. Suchanart Preecha(Secretary of SSO) who were selected and supported by the STIU University.
The purpose of the event was for the student leaders to develop leadershipskills throughout the country participating in the event with the chance toshare their ideas and attitudes about academic activities, future careers andinternational cultures. After our students returned to Stamford, Mr. Philipsaid that:
“My experience at the APSSA conference taught me more about differentAsia-Pacific cultures and the issues we, as student leaders, are facing intoday’s world. We were able to share and exchange ideas, thoughts, and experiencesfrom our own universities and cultures with people who might one day becomeworld leaders.”
This was a fantastic achievement for Stamford, and the conference broughtthe valuable experience to Stamford students as they have learnt how to be agood representative of the university. Stamford would like to Thank Philip,Oomjit and Suchanart, for making the name of Stamford even more well-known tothe public and the worldwide audience.
