The objective of this bursary is to encourage the new generation overseas Chinese to learn Chinese, know more about Chinese culture and foster their culture identity. Mr Lam hopes to assist the overseas Chinese children have the opportunities to go back to China to learn Chinese, and at the same time, to experience Chinese culture and the society. Chinese culture has a long history, extensive and profound. It is the spiritual home of overseas Chinese to maintain feelings with the motherland. To comprehend the Chinese culture, the first action is to learn Chinese.
