WHAT IS ASIAN ENGLISH OLYMPICS?

The Asian English Olympics (AEO) is one of Asia's most anticipated international English competitions.

This event is conducted by Bina Nusantara English Club (BNEC), an english student organization of BINUS University in Jakarta, Indonesia. We began as a National English Olympics. With the passage of time, we have evolved into an Asian-scaled competition with the purpose of developing the skills of Asian youths. The 2022 AEO drew 608 students from 9 nations to compete in 7 competition areas, including Speech, Debate, Newscasting, Storytelling, Spelling Bee, Radio Drama, and Short Story Writing.

Learning Platform, Talent Display, Competitiveness, International Ambience, Hospitality, Cultural Exchange, and Networking are the seven values that AEO upholds. As a result, AEO is a memorable event that provides you with an excellent opportunity to enhance your abilities and gain networks from youths across Asia. AEO will undoubtedly present you, remarkable individuals, with extraordinary experiences! The 2023 AEO will be held onsite on February 13-18, 2023. Unfortunately, only 7 competitive fields will be held, with Scrabble being excluded due to the current conditions.

Michelle Natasya

Project Manager of
The 2023 Asian English Olympics

Hello, Asian Youths!

After a few years of adjusting to the pandemic life, we are now ready to get back to our daily life before the pandemic. Despite the changes currently happening in our mother earth, without any doubt, youngsters like us are capable of adapting to changes that press us and being able to grow as well as explore ourselves to spark and eventually become the best version of ourselves.

Asian English Olympics is a learning platform for Asian Youths to learn new things, show their talents, and build networks with many participants across Asia. Hence, this year’s AEO shall be their milestone to seek for their greatest potential within themselves. From a little spark, you can make yourself sparkle and shine even in the darkest night. As the Project Manager of The 2023 Asian English Olympics, I believe that Asian Youths can unveil their hidden spark and shine brightly in the middle of alteration.

THIS YEAR’S THEME

Unveil Your Spark

Since the pandemic began, we have had to adapt and learn how to live in isolation. But now, we are ready to go back to our normal daily lives and we must unveil the potential within ourselves.

Hence, that’s why this year’s AEO theme is called “Unveil Your Spark,” which means to reveal the hidden spark of Asian Youths through AEO.

The word "Unveil" means to expose, reveal, and discover the hidden talents of Asian Youths.

The word "Your" refers to Asian Youths, committees, and all Asian English Olympics entities since they have their own sparks.

We believe that “Spark” is the perfect word to describe every individual's motivation because It is amazing to see what we can accomplish in life from a strong motivation.

From a little spark, you can make yourself sparkle even on the darkest night. The 2023 Asian English Olympics can be your milestone to unveil your hidden spark. So, are you ready to unveil your spark?
