「美國亞裔國際電影節映示了美國最優秀的亞裔電影。很高興Have A Nice Day被選為影展放映作品其一。我在紐約遇到不少亞裔電影人，他們都在不同層面上啟發了我。由於我的短片電影是關於香港的少數種裔，而且大多數亞洲人是美國的新移民，因此這些電影人都非常明瞭鏡頭下的故事。影展除了放映作品，亦準備了很多活動，好讓所有電影人可以互相認識和了解。更不用説這個城市充滿多少藝術活動，博物館和藝術電影院。我非常享受這次旅程，令我感到意外的是，這次電影節也吸引了不少亞洲觀衆來到紐約參加影展。在這次旅程中，我認識了許多住在美國的亞洲人，例如一位移民到紐約已有五十年的老年女士。從他們身上我更加了解到這個國家，也明白到亞洲人在通往電影業成功之路的辛酸。」

「Jahorina Film Festival was fun overall, most of the films and filmmakers are from Balkans district, which is very special for me. The festival organised different networking events and cultural tours for filmmakers were beneficial in terms of cultural exchange. Bosnia and Herzegovina is a very beautiful country with very complicated history, we even visited Sarajevo, which experienced siege 25 years ago. I had a lot of discussions with people from Serbia, Russia, etc. I am glad that they liked my film very much. They found the story about the immigrant family very moving. They also invited me to show my short films in their countries. Some of them even proposed to co-produce documentary.

Most of the films and filmmakers at the festival were from Balkans district, which was very special for me. The four-day trip was too short for me to know the country thoroughly, but the people in the town and staff from the festival were really friendly and helpful. Last but not the least, I would like to thank the jury panel for awarding me the Special Award, this is the first award this film ever received!」
