Asian Future Leaders Scholarship Program
The Asian Future Leaders Scholarship Program (AFLSP) was founded by Mr. Ronald Kee-Young CHAO, a Hong Kong-based Chinese philanthropist and businessman educated in Japan. The Scholarship Program was launched through the Bai Xian Asia Institute (the Institute) in Spring 2014. The Institute has a distinctive vision to groom future leaders in Asia to serve the community and help nurture harmony among Asian countries, especially among people from Japan and China. The Scholarship Program aims to support a group of elite Asian young people to pursue academic excellence and develop cross-cultural sensitivity.
