Honda Y-E-S Award 2011 in Laos Award Ceremony Highlights

Two Excellent Students Received the 4th Y-E-S Award in Laos

The 4th Y-E-S Award in Laos found two brilliant students among 99 applicants from the science and engineering schools of National University of Laos, based on their performance records, interviews, and essays.
On December 7, 2011 the award ceremony was held in the Assembly Hall at National University of Laos' Faculty of Engineering in Vientiane. After the ceremony, Vice President Dr. Saykhong Saynasine, Honda Foundation's Managing Director Mr. Yoichi Harada, and the two awardees were interviewed by the Lao National Television. These interviews were televised on the station's Laos-Japan Human Resource Development Institute's sponsored program.
The Y-E-S Award program has surely helped its awardees seek further possibilities, as reflected in the fact three of the six awardees for the previous three years are studying in Malaysia, Philippines, and Thailand, respectively.
