D.NG for EVP

I officially declared my candidacy to run for EVP of the Kennedy School Student Government. I have to say I am excited. To campaign and run for the election just like the American Presidential election, although in a much smaller scale, is an experience I think I will enjoy.

Tomorrow, I will make my campaign speech at the Forum to the student body. Victory or defeat, we will see. But I bet, it will be fun. Here is my letter to school seeking support:

Dear friends,

What attracts you to KSG?

For me, it is the people. The great people I meet, interact and connect with make a big difference to my experience. And that means you.

My name is David Ng and I am running for the Executive VP in KSSG. Having significant leadership experience, I had successfully led teams to accomplishing goals and delivering measurable results. Outside of work, I was actively involved as co-chair of a social forum, project leader for a volunteering organization and I also enjoyed socializing.

I strongly envision and strive for a tight community across all programs – whether you are in MPP, MPA, MC, PHD or MPAID – we are one student body, we are KSG. I also aim to improve access to crucial resources, resources that you and I care about, resources that you know will make a difference to your experience at KSG, like better library hours, café selection and financial aids. More importantly, as EVP, I will support the President and VPs to enable them to perform their duties as a team. I believe in commitment and I promise to deliver.

So, my dear friends … let us not just dream our dreams. Join me in making KSG the best place for us to learn, grow and have fun. Work with me towards our goals.

Vote for D.NG!

Best regards,
David Ng
