South East CDC — Your Social Broker

At the helm of South East CDC is Mayor Matthias Yao Chih, who steers community efforts along the three strategic thrusts that guide the work of the CDCs. Called the ‘ABCs of Community Bonding’ — Assisting the Needy, Bonding the People and Connecting the Community — South East CDC initiates and manages programmes in collaboration with both community and corporate partners so as to nurture an active, vibrant and self-reliant community.

South East CDC supports its partners from the schools, grassroots organisations, Voluntary Welfare Organisations and other social service agencies to enable, facilitate and empower ground-up initiatives to bond residents. This is because South East CDC believes and invests in building the capacities of our partners to provide services and implement programmes that will help residents achieve self-reliance in the long run.

South East CDC also plays a bridging role in the District by initiating programmes which allow people of different ages, races and walks of life to interact and connect with one another. Wherever possible, such programmes should achieve a multiplier effect with positive spin-offs that South East CDC can support and replicate over time to involve more of our residents.
