Why TSM South Korea?
- What motivates you to join TSM?
I have organised a business and cultural trip to Vietnam and Cambodia last year, I found the experience really enriching and meaningful. It is not just about to understand the business cultural but also to understand the lifestyle and people from different countries. In addition, I was able to talk to lots of different people with different backgrounds and that was very exciting and opening. Therefore, I would love to have the opportunity to join trips like TSM.
* Why pick South Korea?
I love Korean music - not only Kpop but music in general. Korean ballad is always soothing for me and a great way to help me to distress and sleep. I am a huge fan of Korean drama and movie. After so many years watching and listening, I would love to step my foot on that country. In a more serious note, Korean is a creative and innovative countries in many sector both hard and soft industries. I am personally awed by their agriculture and food industry. Good quality, nice packaging, perfect marketing and wide variety are what make their agriculture and F&B sectors so successful in my belief. I would love to understand more about these sectors and the kind of operation Korean companies are using in general.
