I am truly honored to serve as your National President and to continue the JCI Movement with all of you in 2025.
This year’s theme, "We are Leaders," encapsulates the essence of JCI Hong Kong, China as a leadership development organization. As John Quincy Adams said, “If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.” Together, we can nurture future leaders by serving our community. We lead 21 local chapters and over 2,200 members, working on our theme project “Family Harmony”, prioritizing relationship-building, collaboration, and the embrace of new ideas to foster growth and create a positive impact for our beloved Hong Kong, China .

We Believe:
That faith in God gives meaning and purpose to human life;
That the brotherhood of man transcends the sovereignty of nations;
That economic justice can best be won by free men through free enterprise;
That government should be of laws rather than of men;
That earth’s great treasure lies in human personality;
And that service to humanity is the best work of life.
To provide leadership development opportunities that empower young people to create positive change.
To be the foremost global network of young leaders.
