IN SHORT

York Y.N. Chow has literally saved lives as a physician, as the chief executive of the biggest hospital in Hong Kong, as the Secretary for Health and even during his service as the Chairperson for the Equal Opportunities Commission. He built his career on the desire to add value to society. “Don’t lose heart if you don’t see an opportunity in front of you. They’re always there, but you need to make an effort to find them. And if you’re already well-established, look after the younger generation. Help them overcome their struggles and facilitate them to move upwards.”
