The AIA Quest for the Champion Communicator was held by the Association of International Accountants (AIA), catering to university students from mainland China, Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan areas. It aims at encouraging students to improve their English and Mandarin Chinese, and to enhance their overall abilities to express, communicate, speak, and debate. This was the sixth time that our school had been invited to this competition, and each time we managed to achieve excellent results.
