About the Talk Yves Raguin S.J. in his book “Les déserts de Dieu” (“God's deserts”) opens his Christian faith to the experience of Zen spirituality and the Chinese care for sensibility and imagination. He describes how God's presence goes beyond all expectations, ideas and words. In this respect, he also opens a space for a poetic approach of life described as a new perception of the unity of mind, affection and body. In dialogue with contemporary French writers such as Jean-Pierre Lemaire and Gérard Bocholier we shall see how the writing and reading of poetry may also decipher the world as a perpetual Creation leading to a dynamic integrative communion between God, the others and the self.

About the Speaker Claude TUDURI S.J. has been teaching art and literature for nearly 20 years in different universities in Paris and China ( Pierre et Marie Curie, Centre Sèvres, Versailles). He has published widely about spirituality and aesthetics in different French periodicals and has also worked with many artists in multimedia productions. His last book aiming to achieve reconciliation between poetry and spirituality, is entitled L'arbre au fond de la jetée, Tituli, Paris, 2016.

The access to the professions of "psychologist", "clinical psychologist" or "counselors" is not always clear for most of undergraduate and graduate students. The University gives to the students an academic certification. But to what professions they can access with that academic certification? In the same way, who can access to the different professions? This last question is particularly relevant to the "counselors" as different professionals are doing counseling (e.g. psychologists, social workers and teachers). But even for that, a Master in Counseling shouldn't be required? On the other hand, what is expected for each professional to do? What can a clinical psychologist do that a psychologist, not clinical, cannot? And a counselor, what he can and not do? And, more that, how can they articulate and be complementary to each other? And finally, who regulates this? We know that the "Health Bureau Service" regulates the access to the "clinical psychology". And what about the "psychological intervention" or "counseling intervention", who's making or should make the regulation? For this round table dedicated to the USJ population (MCP students and alumni, bachelor in psychology students, professors of the MCP and bachelor in Psychology) we invited representatives of associations in this area (both from Macau and Hong Kong) to help us to find some answers to these questions.   About the speakers John Shanahan is an Australian trained Developmental and Educational Psychologist and Special Education Teacher who grew up in Hong Kong.  He has more than ten years experience working with schools and families in Hong Kong in private practice.  He is currently the Director of Central Health Partners Child Development Team, the President of the Psychotherapy Society of Hong Kong, the Psychologist on the Safety Committee for Outward Bound Hong Kong, and an Advisor to the Hawn Foundation and Kids4Kids.  In addition, he is an Executive Committee member for the Dyslexia Association of Hong Kong and a Visiting Professor in the Master in Counselling and Psychotherapy at the University of St Joseph. Wong Ka Wo (Hero) obtained his bachelor degree on Psychology and Biology in Abilene Christian University, Texas. He proceeded to work as a psychology counselor in ARTM helping clients with substance use disorders. His great passion in the field gives him an opportunity to work in Department of Social Rehabilitation of Macau SAR to serve in a wider context. In the meanwhile, he pursued his master degree in Counseling and Psychotherapy in the University of Saint Joseph. Currently, Hero is working in SAFP (Department of Administration and Public Service) and serves the position of Member of Supervisory Committee in Macau Psychology Association.

On 5 November, a workshop on “Responsible Leadership” was organized in the NAPE campus of USJ.   The symposium and workshop was a three-day-event to explore the topic of Moral Leadership. In recent years, the focus on corporate ethical behaviour and, in particular, the ethical behaviour of corporate leaders has intensified, therefore, MRI and USJ organized this symposium which aimed to put forward realistic and pragmatic scenarios to implement key concepts for the exercise of responsible leadership. The workshop was designed to help participants identify key responsible leadership principles which shape quality management practice, drawing insights from East and West wisdom traditions to address contemporary management challenges.   This event resulted as a platform for sharing and exchanging ideas between 15 international scholars and 30 workshop participants.

Recently, Prof. Vincent Yang, Pro-Rector of USJ, was interviewed by Mingpao Daily and several other Chinese press to comment on the signing of an Agreement between China and Canada on Sharing and Return of Forfeited Assets during Premier Li Keqiang’s official visit to Canada in late September, 2016 as well as the beginning of discussion of an extradition treaty between the two countries. Prof. Yang indicated that the signing of China’s first treaty on the sharing and return of forfeited asset is a significant ground breaking development, which will help law enforcement agencies work together in a joint effort to fight cross-border crime including organized crime and corruption. The beginning of discussion on extradition treaty between the two governments is also encouraging, given that Canada does not want to become a safe heaven for Chinese fugitives involved in major corruption and economic crimes, and an extradition treaty can provide a solid legal ground for the timely removal of fugitives.
