Which year do you participate in ASEP?

ASEP 2015 Vietnam - "Biodiversity and Human"

How participation in ASEP changed your perspective on environmental sustainability?

It helps to increase my awareness towards environment protection, it changes my

perspective how environmental sustainability can affect local commune in long term.

In what ways do you believe the project has had a lasting effect on environmental

awareness or future sustainability initiatives?

During the projects, we were targeting the local commune in Vietnam, we implemented

and shared the practical ways to encourage them to practise in life for long term

environment sustainability, they were collaborative and believe themselves can make a

change.

How did your involvement in the project influence your career choices/personal

commitment to environmental sustainability?

Nothing related to my current career choice, but it affects my daily routine, to live in more

sustainable ways, eg, bring own tumbler/tupperware for food/drink take away. Constantly

sending the recyclable items from house to the recycling centre.

Any memorable moments?

Every single moment in ASEP'15. This was an amazing interaction and experience with a

group of young and dynamic undergraduate from different countries to work towards

same goal.

Any message to your group members during ASEP or anything else you would like to

share?

Keep the heart of healing our environment, our Mother Earth.
