This year’s competition embraced the meaningful theme “One Family, One World,” challenging contestants to navigate through three demanding rounds that tested their linguistic proficiency, cultural knowledge, and artistic talents. Representing HUFLIT, student Ong Gia Hao delivered an outstanding performance that captivated both the judges and the audience. His profound speech highlighted the depth of his understanding of Chinese culture, while his skillful demonstration of paper-cutting art showcased his creativity and dedication to mastering traditional Chinese crafts.
Despite the fierce competition from talented participants, Gia Hao’s exceptional efforts earned him the Consolation Prize, bringing pride to HUFLIT and serving as an inspiration to his peers in the Chinese Language Studies program. His performance exemplified the high caliber of language education at HUFLIT and underscored the university’s commitment to nurturing students who excel both academically and artistically.
The 2023 Chinese Bridge Competition provided more than just an opportunity to compete; it was a platform for students to connect and learn from peers who share a passion for the Chinese language and culture. Participants gained invaluable experiences and insights, fostering a sense of camaraderie and mutual respect within the Chinese language learning community.
Gia Hao’s success at the competition is a testament to HUFLIT’s focus on holistic education, combining linguistic excellence with cultural appreciation and personal growth. Events like the Chinese Bridge Competition not only showcase the talents of HUFLIT students but also prepare them to take on greater challenges in their academic and professional journeys.
As HUFLIT continues to support and encourage its students to participate in such prestigious events, it reinforces its position as a leader in foreign language education, inspiring future generations to achieve excellence on both national and international stages.
