Dobelle
in Asia to Strengthen Global Partnerships and Promote UH
President Evan S. Dobelle
and a team of administrators spent two weeks visiting Vietnam, Malaysia, Thailand,
Singapore, Indonesia and Japan, in an effort to better understand these countries
situations, provide greater exposure to UH’s vast programs, reconnect with
UH alumni, meet with UH partner institutions and explore new partnerships.
The Board of Regents recently adopted a new strategic plan which calls for "transforming
the international profile of the University of Hawai‘i system as a distinguished
resource in Hawaiian and Asian-Pacific affairs, positioning it as one of the
world’s foremost multicultural centers for global and indigenous studies."
During the trip, Dobelle and President Dao Trong Thi of Vietnam National University
(VNU) signed an agreement renewing an academic partnership which includes continuing
the executive MBA program operated by the Manoa College of Business Administration
through the Hanoi School of Business.
"With the board’s recently adopted strategic plan for the UH system
strongly supporting global initiatives, we are now focusing on emerging markets—particularly
Southeast Asia—which we believe has great potential for UH," said
Dobelle.
