Andy Lau receives honorary doctorate

18 Dec – Andy Lau recently made his appearance at the Shue Yan University to receive his honorary doctorate from the academic institution.

As reported on Mingpao, the actor who was awarded a Doctor of Letters, honoris causa, received his degree from the head of the university Professor Hu Yau Su at the graduation ceremony held on 14 December.

Instead of making a long speech, Andy sparked laughter when he said, "No worries, I am not going to make a speech, thank you."

Nonetheless, he did express his thoughts about the honour with the media after the event, saying that he hopes to be a role model for young people.

"No matter how humble your beginnings are, no matter how challenging the situation you face, there is no excuse for you not to do your best and work your hardest," he said.

When asked if he has plans to go back to school in the future, Andy said that nothing is impossible.
