Message from NG Ka-ho

I, NG Ka-Ho, have been studying in CityU for over 6 years (obtained my BE and MPhil and pursuing my PhD). CityU is my second home. I would like to serve and contribute to my Alma Mater.

As General Secretary of City University Postgraduate Association (CUPA), I work very hard on CUPA's 4 main fields of activities: membership, mentorship, leadership and citizenship. For example I have organized Rock Climbing Fun Days, Shenzhen University Exchange Visit, “Say No to Shark Fin Soup” Campaign, Seminar by “the first Chinese woman who conquered the World’s 7 highest mountains and the 2 Poles”, etc. since March this year. Besides, I also organized a series of hiking activities, e.g. Hiking Fun Days and Trailwalker Trainings.

I am also a member of the Board of Graduate Studies and the Academic Conduct Committee of CityU. Moreover, I am a member of the Student Complaints Panel. I attended most of the meetings of these committees, in which I spoke out the thoughts of CityU students and did my best to protect their interests.

My Election Objects:
Increase Research Studentship
More Resources on Career Development for Postgraduates
Notebook Computer Purchase Subsidy
Provide More Residence for Postgraduates
Increase Communication Channels between Students and CityU.
從本科、碩士到現在攻讀博士課程，我吳家豪已在城大超過六年。城大是我第二個家，我要盡最大努力，貢獻我的母校。

作為城大研究生會秘書，我和其他委員合力舉辦過各種活動。例如: 攀石樂趣日，深大交流團，“保護鯊魚、不吃魚翅”活動，“首位征服七大洲最高峰及兩極的華裔女性”講座等。此外，我還帶領過多次爬山及越野活動。

我亦是城大研究生院董事會、學術紀律委員會及學生投訴委員會的成員。我參加了上述各會絕大部份的會議，並在會議上積極代表研究生爭取權益。

我的競選政綱是：
提高研究生津貼
投放更多資源在研究生就業及晉升輔導
筆記本電腦購買津貼
大幅增加研究生宿位
加強及增加學生和校方溝通渠道
