βš’οΈ What do you do?

I am currently the Secretary-General of Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre ("HKIAC"), working on several wonderful initiatives to promote Hong Kong as a great place to do arbitration!

πŸ† What is your proudest professional achievement?

Professionally, I was absolutely chuffed when I got my first arbitrator appointment in 2009.

I still remember the mixture of absolute pride and overwhelming terror as I sat on the banks of the Main in Frankfurt with two friends and a bottle of wine 🍷.

βŒ› There are now 25 hours in a day! How do you spend your extra hour?

Either out in the fresh air, or asleep! πŸ’€

πŸš€ If you weren't a lawyer, what would you do?

One of those travel/food shows, where you get paid to see the world/eat wonderful food 🍲 (on the latter, see next question below).

πŸ˜‹ Your favourite food haunt (bonus points if it's off the beaten track!)

Where do I start?! So many places, so little time. Here we go:

- Petrichor in Brisbane, Australia

- L’Escale in Remigny, France (this is where the attached photo was taken)

- La Pequena Lulu, Los Canos de Meca, Spain

- anything mala in China, preferably drenched in a fiery soup πŸœ
