Executive director's update
This
month, our acting executive director Adele Mason takes a
look at the recently released Australia in the Asian
Century white paper, and covers off the foundation's
latest activities, including the Diwali celebrations in
Auckland and Wellington.
This will be Ms Mason's last
update, with John McKinnon stepping into the role of
executive director early next month.
A Gangnam Style quiz
With all the
attention on K-pop artist Psy and his break-out hit
Gangnam Style, we thought it only appropriate to make
this month's quiz about South Korea.
You may be able to
dance like Psy, but what do you know about his home
country?
Study in Singapore - all expenses paid
Alert all graduating high school students that
you know - we're now taking applications for our Singapore
Scholarship.
This is an amazing opportunity for a young
New Zealander to earn an undergraduate degree at one of
Asia's top universities - all expenses paid.
Applications
close Friday 1 December.
Grants for arts and culture projects
Working on a project that will help educate
Kiwis about Asian arts or culture?
Our arts grants help
support such projects, and are open to New Zealand-based
arts professionals, arts and cultural institutions, councils
and festival and event organisers.
Applications close
Friday 30 November.

graduates and newly qualified journalists the opportunity to
