Distinguished  Participants  &  Advisors,      We   would   like   to   extend   our  warmest  welcome   and   invite   you   to   be   part   of   this   annual  gathering   of   student   leaders   around   the  world.   It   is  our   privilege   to   be  hosting   the  Asian  Youth   Leaders   Travel   and   Learning   Camp   (AYLTLC)   2016   for   the   5th   time   here   in  Singapore.        AYLTLC  aims   to   bring  student   leaders  worldwide,   through  engaging  activities,   to  enhance  their  abilities  in  cross-­‐cultural  interaction  and  cooperation,  which  will  further  equip  them  to  be   effective   leaders.   In   addition,   participants   will   be   able   to   understand   more   about  Singapore  -­‐  a  multiracial,  multilingual  and  multicultural  society  from  various  perspectives.  Nevertheless,   what   they   will   learn   here   may   not   only   be   unique   to   Singapore,   but   also  applicable   to   their   home   countries   as   well   as   the   increasingly   interconnected   and  interdependent  world.      We  always  remind  ourselves  that  we  are  hosting  a  camp  with  the  brightest  student  talents  who  are  indeed  the  leaders  of  tomorrow.      Once  again,  we  look  forward  to  meeting  you  at  AYLTLC  2016.   Yours  Sincerely,      Organizing  Committee  of  Asian  Youth  Leaders  Travel  and  Learning  Camp  2016      

Welcome  to  AYLTLC  2016    

                                                                                                 

 Situated  at   the   south  of  Malay   Peninsula,   shrouded   by   tropical   sunshine,  Singapore   has   been   described   as   “Asian   Economic   Miracle”,   a   thriving  cosmopolitan  city  brimming  with  racial  diversity  as  well  as  a  fine  mixture  of  culture,  language,  arts,  and  architecture.    Singapore   rose   to   prominence   largely   due   to   her   strategic   position   as   a  trading   port,   a   stable   government   and   its   pro-­‐business   policies   and  institutions,   which   is   of   paramount   importance   for   Multi-­‐National  Companies  (MNC)  to  gain  confidence  to  invest  in.  Through  the  years  after  independence,   the  nation  has  developed   its  economic  prowess  and  gains  much  respect  in  terms  of  international  standing.    Educational   quality   and   a   diverse   culture   has   always   been   Singapore’s  pride.   Singapore   witnessed   clashes   and   integrations   of   various   cultures  and  has  since  cultivated  a  unique  cultural  meting  pot.  While  continuing  to  act  as   the  regional  center,  embracing  the  diversity  while  maintaining  her  uniqueness,  Singapore  is  building  the  reputation  as  a  home  for  all.
