MY MOTIVATION

Voting Links: amsvoting.as.it.ubc.ca.

Through the Student Refugee Program (WUSC) I was resettled into Canada through the generosity of the UBC students like you that supported and funded WUSC-UBC/SRP program scholarship. I do my very best each day to learn as much as I can in order to obtain valuable experiences and skills that I can use to improve WUSC program, UBC and hopefully Canada in the near future.

If you are a past or current UBC Vancouver student, and you are not sure whether you have impacted someone else, well you did, and you better believe that you actually change other people lives through education …. I am proud citizen of Canada today because of your $0.50 contributions in 1980’s to about $5.00 currently. Many thanks for your support and now it’s my time to inspire and support other students, and advocate for the best values of our student society as your next AMS President. I chose to contribute to AMS and UBC community through the past of student leadership which is why I work for AMS for about three years now, and would really appreciate your support to continue for at least one more year.

I have demonstrated this commitment by helping initiate and organize the 2016 WUSC referendum that doubled the UBC Student Refugee Program from four to eight students a year, as well as advocated and was successful in increasing the support for refugee students at UBC. Because of the great support from the members of the AMS like yourselves and UBC staff, faculty and administrator, UBC currently has the best student refugee program in Canada. As a result of my contribution to WUSC-UBC I was one of the five Canada Volunteer Award 2017 recipients (read more: link). I successfully impacted WUSC in a very positive way and I will continue positively impact your Alma Mater Society as your next VP President.

Alma Mater Society of UBC Vancouver is a great and unique student society yet complex in a very special way. I can confirm that, I have earned a huge experience and explore interesting opportunities in my current roles as AMS VP Finance. 

And yes I will definitely use the experience and commitment as your 110th AMS President to make sure that AMS members shouldn’t form groups to advocate for opportunities (either trying to find space in the nest or retain finding that facilitates good causes etc.) but work with their students’ society AMS under my leadership and advocate to the university as one team serving the same vision and mission –

  Support me through your vote and I will be serving the students.
