Bulletin Spring‧Summer 1978

Plaque-unveiling Ceremony of Lion Pavilion Dr. Choh-Ming Li, Vice-Chancellor, and Profes sor Ma lin , Vice-Chancellor-Designate of the Univer sity, officiated at the ceremony for unveiling the plaque of The Kowloon Central lion Pavilion on 26th June, 1978. The Pavilion is a donation of the lions Club of Kowloon Central and Mr. Astor Chang, Chartered President of the Club, unveiled the plaque at the ceremony. The Pavilion is expected to be com pleted before the end of 1978. Address by Mr. Astor Chang It is a great honour for me to have the oppor tunity to address the assembly on behalf of members of the Lion's Club of Kowloon Central on this occa sion. The aim of the lion's Club is world-wide com munity service, coinciding with The Chinese Univer sity's aim of serving the society. It would give us great pleasure to present to The Chinese University a gift to help it achieve this aim. But what kind of gift? Professor Ma Lin, Vice-Chancellor-Designate, has remarked that the absence of gates at the entrance of The Chinese University is a manifestation of the University's open attitude and people are welcome to visit this campus any time. Indeed, The Chinese University campus may very well be said to belong to every member of the society: we have just to look at the crowds of visitors thronging the campus on week ends and holidays. The fact that the campus itself is a kind of community service has given us some inspira tion. The Chinese University campus is undoubtedly very attractive, this charming lily Pond being one of its scenic spots. Construction of a pavilion on it will naturally enhance the beauty of not only the Pond but the whole campus. We therefore decided to donate a pavilion to The Chinese University, hoping that it will be a welcome gift for the University staff and students, where they can spent their leisure time in a quiet and peaceful atmosphere. We are grateful to Dr. C. M. Li, who has kindly written the inscription for this Kowloon Central lion Pavilion. May I, on behalf of our Club, thank Dr. Li for his kindness, and wish The Chinese University greater success in its service to the community.
