Profile
On the 4th September 1950, a small group of respected chefs from Australia came together to form a group dedicated to promoting the development and exchange of global hospitality culture – this group became the World Association of Master Chefs.
The initial function and service of WAMC
The idea and the concept of the WAMC are to provide a worldwide sharing platform for professional skills and experiences. With this worldwide network, various celebrity chefs, masters, and hospitality experts from around the world are invited to join the membership of WAMC. With their valuable support and assistance, WAMC can assist in the realization of dreams and promoting the international culinary field along with worldwide cuisine and culture-sharing activities through television shows, magazines, and others.
With the suggestion and advice from the legal sector, WAMC is registered in Hong Kong and also Australia through our partnerships. This is because the WAMC network covers international activities in various countries like Taiwan, Malaysia, Australia, New Zealand, China, Hong Kong, England etc, and due to the difference of regulations and laws, as well as the restriction and limitation in each region on association or non-profit organisation. In addition, many of the WAMC activities and functions involve legal contracts and agreements, plus Australian based association or non-profit organisation are also restricted and limited in overseas expansion or international activity by local statute and taxation guardian.
Like many organisations around the world, the association prides itself on the excellence of its members and the skills which they bring to the industry. The common cry of the association which is in Latin is “dignitatem ex hoc conatus” which in English means “excellence through effort“, a fitting statement for the skill level and dedication of all associated.Personal Point of View on WAMC
Continuing to promote and develop the WAMC is an aim all members have. The oriental culinary and food culture is actually very broad, rich, and colorful, but unfortunately, the incomprehension and criticism by the media has misguided this perception as too ordinary and non-healthy, Therefore, a cultural exchange and sharing platforms are needed to improve this perception, to share the experience and minimise the culture gap. As an Australian Chinese, Sunly Lo wished to offer an opportunity to the international catering industry and fellow culinary masters to enjoy, introduce and admire the culinary art and food culture of Asia, as well as joining into the largest market in the world. In the meantime, it is also a valuable chance for all the culinary masters to show and demonstrate their talent to the world through the internationally recognised standard of the Australian professional assessment. Besides this, it is also a great chance to open up the opportunity of international business and worldwide job opportunity through specialised training services and offerings.
As a worldwide culinary and catering sharing platform, WAMC is currently progressing and inviting celebrity chefs, masters, and catering specialists from around the world to participate and join the chairman board of WAMC. It is a great honor to be invited and also an affirmation and appreciation of the individual’s professional status in the industry. WAMC is offering great space and platform for everyone to enjoy the quality of professional skills, the chance of professional upgrade, and global business opportunities. Our current Secretary-General and Presidents consist of representatives from many countries around the world and we continue to grow the membership opportunities.
