Why TSM South Korea ?

What motivates you to join TSM ?

There are things that couldn't be taught in classroom. Since I couldn't go for exchange, I would like to take up this opportunity to go for this study trip. I believe TSM can help me to broaden my horizon and let me learn more about myself during the trip. This is a once in a lifetime experience, if I give it a miss now, I would regret after I graduate. In addition, I would also like to use this chance to go to Korea to learn about their startups, how they get started.


Why South Korea ?

  • current trend is into Korea, thus I would like to take this opportunity to visit the companies and learn about their technology
  • Korea have increasing startup, it would be a great chance to go and understand about how they can be so successful

Starting a business

What type of business interest you ?

  • mobile devices
  • fashion
  • food

What plan do you have in starting a business ?

I would always like to have an online blogshop that could attracts people based on the latest fashion. But before I could do that, I need to have enough capital and a reliable supplier that could provide me with the clothes that could attract people. This would have to wait till I graduate, which I will slowly start to save up on the capital and research for the suppliers. This will include doing more research on the business industry and the market response.

Past Experience

What keeps you ticking ?

Take a brave step and step out of your comfort zone. Do what you would like to do, follow your passion. You will not know what will happen the next minute. What will be, will be.
