33. “I am grateful to have been part of the 2014 OCIC Global Changemakers program. The recognition, for me, is a motivation to strive to be better as an individual and to continue to make the world (and this planet) a better place. I think that is what makes the recognition so valuable -- the personal motivation that comes from it.” – Andrew Wong, 2014 Global Changemaker Award recipient
