RESPECT is chosen as the theme for our poster. Through the poster, we hope to illustrate that peoples having different cultural and religious backgrounds on the globe are like puzzle pieces, any of which should not be missed. We may not share the same values and beliefs but what we have to do is to understand and respect. When we all embrace the diversity of the culture, we can build our world a completed puzzle with harmony in diversity.
