==<font face="Segoe Script" size=5 color=#7B3F00>Why TSM Hong Kong?</font>==
* What motivates you to join TSM? <br> 
Going for TSM is on my bucket list! The thoughts of planning and executing the trip itself makes me excited! I always love to take up roles to try out different things. Also, this experience will provide me the opportunities to find out more about Technology Entrepreneurship which it's hard to come by in school. It's definitely a lifetime opportunity to visit companies in Hong Kong. <br><br>

* Why pick Hong Kong? <br> 
I'm always curious about Hong Kong (technology advancement/ companies/ startups/ their lifestyle/ standard of living, etc) because Hong Kong is similar to Singapore. It is a small country, but yet, their presence is known across the world. Getting to know their culture and technology entrepreneurship will broaden my knowledge and a unique experience to visit different companies.  

<br>

* Ideal role in the trip: <br>
Hoho! Treasurer or Hotel Info/Tech Support/Insurance/Room/ Itinerary Planner <br>
Why Treasury? Because I'm detail oriented (quite OCD also) and I helped my Finance head in keeping track of money for our OCSP.

==<font face="Segoe Script" size=5 color=#7B3F00>Starting a business</font>==
* What types of business interest you? <br>
E commerce/ Marketing/ Visualization Dashboards/ Data Analytics 

<br>

* What plan do you have in starting a business? <br>
My brother and I always talk about starting an online business together - a random example would be an e commerce that sells Baby Necessities. I'm also thinking of starting a business that teaches Microsoft Excel. It's so powerful but yet, not all office workers know how to fully utilize it. Still, I'm trying to gain experience and learn as I go.
