YSEALI

A group of 41 young leaders from Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam visited Arizona State University, in March, ready to gain knowledge to help create change and support for their communities. For several of them, it was the first time they had ever left their home countries.

Let me start by setting the scene. 42 fellows. Ten ASEAN countries. Five weeks. Mix that with a robust program schedule, community service projects, road trips and an affinity for karaoke, and you get the ASU YSEALI program.
