Nixie Lam, Bachelor of Arts, Master of Business
As the newly elected councillor for the Tsuen Wan District in Hong Kong, Nixie Lam is making it her mission to help people in her area live more meaningful and connected lives.
It’s a philosophy Ms Lam has held since she graduated with a Master of Business in 2005 and became President of the UQ Hong Kong Alumni Association.
In her time in the role, Ms Lam helped to form good relationships with organisations such as Austrade and unite Australian university alumni in Hong Kong.
At the same time, Ms Lam worked for the Hong Kong Youth Association as head of public relations, igniting her interest in youth development and desire for a more hands-on approach. A friend then asked her if she wanted to join the Democratic Alliance for the Betterment and Progress of Hong Kong (DAB), Hong Kong’s biggest political party.
“I found real satisfaction volunteering as a district officer for the DAB. I could see immediate progress and changes day-to-day,” Ms Lam said.
For this reason, Ms Lam ran for district councillor of Tsuen Wan and hit the campaign trail.
“When the votes were being counted, my heart felt like it had stopped. Once I learnt that I had won, I hugged everyone who had stayed up all night for the vote-counting and helped with the campaign,” she said.
In her new role, Ms Lam hopes to activate the best of the region by listening to and understanding her constituents’ needs.
“As district councillor I’ll be a mediator between the people and the government. My focus will be to get as many of their ideas through to help build a better community and keep people encouraged and connected.”
