Founded by Tatler 500 lister Dr. Lui Che-woo, the 2018 Lui Che Woo Prize awarded three laureates for their outstanding contributions to the world
Held last week at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre, the annual Lui Che Woo Prize presentation ceremony marked the third year of the prestigious international award, which recognises cross-sector leaders who've contributed to three main objectives: sustainable development of the world, betterment of human welfare and enhancement of positive energy.
The ceremony was joined by VIP guests including Hong Kong Chief Executive Carrie Lam and CPPCC vice-chairman Tung Chee-hwa.
Dr. Lui Che-woo himself graced the occasion with his presence and a motivating remark:
“The three laureates this year share the same vision with the Lui Che Woo Prize. They not only believe in making a better world, but also overcome difficulties with courage, wisdom, and selflessness. They are role models in their fields and have greatly contributed to the world; inspiring more people to participate and jointly create our future."
