Why do we determine to use “We Believe” as this year's theme? Since the first half of this year has witnessed the relentless pandemic engendering so much bewilderment, anxiety, and emotional insecurity among us. From unstable international landscape, corporate layoffs to recurring local Covid-19 cases suggested that crises in politics, economy and society are intertwined. people felt that 2022 is the “coldest” year they have ever met. However, during these uncertain times, one thing is sure that people ought to ask themselves: What do I really believe in? (The more uncertain times get; the more necessary people should ask themselves).
