Things are quite different now than they were in the year of 1999. I still remember our humble beginnings and the fax machine in my flat that was essentially our first office. We had trouble recruiting staff and when they arrived at the address for the job interview they would realize it was a residential address and run for the hills.
It was not long before we got our first official office and I still remember the excitement among our small team, many of which are still with AP today.
There have been so many highlights in the last 20 years and I continue to enjoy my job enormously. The most important thing for me is my amazing colleagues. They inspire me whether it be the events team, administrators or clinical people. They all strive to do their very best and are always pushing the boundaries to do better for the students and their families. As a result AP is continually changing and evolving and that’s what keeps the work exciting.
I think we have achieved a lot in the 20 years. We have created a charity, Autism Partnership Foundation and opened a school, Aoi Pui School in Hong Kong. We opened 3 other offices in Asia and have created a wonderful team of people that can provide services for a wide range of needs.
I am sure there is more to come and I look forward to be part of those developments. I would like to thank all my staff for all their brilliant work and all their support through good times and bad and also to the families and their children for their support and trust in us to do the best we can, for that we are truly grateful.

[:zh]今年對AP來說是不平凡的一年，AP 香港迎來了二十週年！歷經二十年的發展，AP發生了巨大的變化。我仍記得AP香港在1999年成立時的簡陋模樣，僅靠著我公寓裡的一台傳真機勉強成立了第一間辦公室。招聘過程也困難重重，許多應聘者在意識到我們的辦公地點是住宅地址之後便逃之夭夭。
不久之後，我們擁有了第一個正式的辦公室，回想起成員間的那份激動仍然記憶猶新，其中許多至今仍在AP與我們同行。
過去的二十年中有許多閃耀瞬間，我依然十分熱愛這份工作。對我而言，最重要的一部分就是AP裡出色的同事們，無論是我們負責籌備活動的團隊，還是行政團隊或是治療團隊，都一直激勵著我。這裡每個人都盡力做到最好，一次次突破界限，為學生和家長提供更好的治療與服務。正因如此，AP不斷變化，不斷發展，這也是這項工作一直激動人心的地方。
這二十年中，我們也取得了不少成就。我們在香港成立了慈善機構愛培自閉症基金，還開辦了愛培學校。在亞洲設立了三個辦事處，擁有一支優秀的團隊，服務有各種不同需求的學生和家庭。
我相信，AP未來還會有更多的變化與發展，我期待著自己能成為其中的一部分。我想要感謝全體員工，他們的卓越表現成就了AP的閃耀瞬間，感謝他們在困難時刻也一如既往的給予支持。我還想要感謝那些給予我們信任和支持，相信我們會竭盡全力提供優質服務的學生和家庭，對此我表示衷心的感激。
