Alumni Reunion in Shanghai

On Good Friday, 30 March 2018, 80 NUS Law alumni and students gathered at the beautiful Intercontinental Shanghai Ruijin Hotel for the Shanghai Alumni Reunion. The evening was hosted by the Dean, Professor Simon Chesterman, and our Alumni Relations team.

For the first time ever, the event was combined with the Annual International Business Law (IBL) Alumni Reception, an event that was spearheaded by Associate Professor Stephen Phua ’88, Director for LL.M. (IBL), and has been held annually since 2009. This being a combined event, NUS Law was delighted to welcome special guests from the East China University of Political Science and Law (ECUPL), including Professor Zhang Yong, Vice Dean of ECUPL’s Graduate School.

Associate Professor Stephen Phua kicked off the proceedings with a warm welcome to alumni and guests, after which Professor Simon Chesterman and Professor Zhang brought their respective greetings to alumni and reaffirmed the strong partnership between both universities. For the rest of the evening, alumni enjoyed catching up and taking photos with their former professors, as well as connecting with other alumni. It was especially encouraging to note that a number of alumni from nearby cities had made the effort to travel to Shanghai for the reunion. Do keep a lookout for future overseas reunions and join in the fun!
