In just lesser than a week, we will see a transition of power from the out-going committees to the in-coming committees.
Every year, I will have an agenda for the society.
The first year after I left, I stress on the importance of members in actually being the real power that control the society.
Members are the real power of the society
They are those that play the most vital role in maintaining the stability, performance and excellence of the society.
In other words, committees are just the mould, but members are the product made.
The second year, I stress on how important for Junior Coms to be innovative and creative in their work in order to improve the society.
Besides, all are reminded again one of the most important element of an organisation which is to remember that we need to do what we want others to do and never ask members to do anything that we will never want to do when we are in their shoe.
It is one of the famous line I always say: “A boss tells us what to do, a leader shows that it can be done”.
The next year, the agenda diverted to unity between Juniors and Seniors. It seems there is some gap due to dissatisfaction here and there.
However, it is not worth mentioning anymore, as today the Seniors and Juniors are working closely enough, or in fact, I will say more than that.
Now, we are entering another new year. Although it has not even started, I can feel that, if we are not aware about it, sooner or later, I am worry it will turns out to be true.
I rather hope the committees to prove me wrong than to see it becomes a problem that we have to seek for a solution.
What I am trying to point out is nothing new or difficult to understand. It can be also one of the main ideas I have always stress, which is Leadership through Example.
To define it clearer, leadership through example can be understood as leaders will always act as a role model to the members, therefore, what the leaders do, will seems to be something right to do to the members, and they will also do it.
Therefore, if the committees are pursuing righteousness, then righteousness will be reflected In members, it goes the same if the leaders display bad examples in them, then bad examples are what we will see in the entire society.
This is actually the simplest yet can be the hardest thing to do.
However, it should be clearly noted that this is not something created or caused solely by the current committees; it is more of an inheritance, which I wouldn’t deny if it even existed during my time.
Therefore, I am afraid if the higher authorities still do not take drastic actions, Unit will be like a food chain. As time passes by and we are climbing higher up the trophic level, what left is the little proportion of the original cake once we have.
If this is going to be a reality, then all the past achievements will rather just remain as a history.
As how we can always hear from Cantonese dramas (after translation):
“We, as the current generation will be a disgrace to the ancestors and have no pride to meet them.”
All this can surely be seen right in front our eyes now with the declining of serious matters such as first aid, participation and qualities of performance for anything with regard to competition.
As ex-seniors, it will be inappropriate for us to continually interfering and disrupting, no matter how helpful the suggestions and comments. This is for the sake of respecting the current committees as well as not to disturb the stability within the Unit.
However, in the name of Unit, this is a very sincere reminder I can give. Especially, when it is written here…
Who reads?
Who cares?
Maybe, it is a personal piece of writing for relieve, that is if Unit is worse, at least I have reminded before, if Unit is better, then that shows the committees manage to escape the catastrophe well. Either way, I am not losing anything.
For those going to be proudly sticking up the 3 stripes (and with an extra crown), what have you got to do when you guys are in power?
In this new month of August,
We see the end of July
And September is coming soon.
In this present moment,
We see how we are made of from the past,
As how it will then affect the future.
If we can understand the past, present and future,
We will understand,
They are all are the same and inter-related.
As how the past committees,
The present committees,
And the future committes,
Are connected.
Our actions yesterday
have caused our today
and will affect our tomorrow.
However,
As we can only control the present moment,
Let us ensure our today is going to be
A memorable past for tomorrow,
So that by tomorrow it will be a memorable today.
For those going to be appointed,
It will be one of my most exciting and proudest moment,
Hope the new fresh team will bring a change,
And bring the society to the best level ever before.
May all be well and happy…
