(吉隆坡18日訊)美國哈崗學區教委主席陳介飛說,他希望通過美國年輕政治領導人理事會到世界各地訪問時,學習不同國家的華人是如何在當地取得成功的。
“在美國,華人更是屬於少數民族,我希望可以學習華人如何在別的國家取得成功。”

陳介飛是美國年輕政治領導人理事會7人代表團的領隊,他們今日在馬華總部與馬青一行人進行交流。

他說,他曾在新加坡居住,這是他和團員第一次踏足大馬,以瞭解大馬政治、經濟、歷史文化及基本設施等。

他們覺得大馬非常有活力,而且這裡的食物非常美味,讓他們不停地一直在吃。

抵達大馬前,美國年輕政治領導人理事會代表團也訪問了印尼。

另一方面,馬青總團長拿督魏家祥說,這是馬青第一次接待中國大陸以外的代表團,隨團的包括

民主黨和共和黨年輕的參眾議員。

“這可以讓我們更瞭解美國的民主制度,包括他們所進行的活動,我也向他們分享大馬的經濟轉

型計劃、外資直接投資情況及我們所貫徹的政策。”

他說,雙方也討論一些課題,包括國家安全、工作機會及如何吸引更多的輕人從政等。

馬青和美國年輕政治領導人理事會皆認為這是很好的交流,促進兩國年輕領導人的認識,並希望往後有更多的合作機會。



Leaving a mark on US youths


On July 19, 2011, in In The News, MCA Youth

KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia’s multiracial and multicultural society has left a mark on a group of American youths seeking to forge closer relations with the world’s young leaders.

The delegates of the American Council of Young Political Leaders (ACYPL) said they were delighted to see the unity and healthy interaction among the different races in Malaysia.
ACYPL is a bipartisan, non-profit educational exchange organisation that carries out ex-change programmes which introduces young political leaders to policy and decision-making processes around the world.

A delegate and president of the Hacienda La Puente Unified School District board Jay Chen said

Malaysia had a more diverse community compared with the United States.

“Malaysia is dealing with such matters on a much larger structure and scale.

“I am especially impressed with the growth and employment rates that this country has achieved,” Chen said during a courtesy call and interactive session between MCA Youth and ACYPL at Wisma MCA here yesterday.

MCA Youth chief Datuk Dr Wee Ka Siong, who attended the meeting, said he hoped the interactive session would lay the foundation for more future interactions and visits between the movement and ACYPL.

He expressed hope that the meeting would create a better understanding of Malaysia-US relations, while diplomatic ties could be further improved.
“Fostering closer ties would result in support for Malaysia’s policies like the
Economic Transformation Programme,” he added.
