As i am constantly searching for people who can help me with my ideas and business plan, it is either too expensive or not able to find the right people. So i thought that since i have this opportunity to go to a country which is very advanced in the area relevant to my business idea, why not i give it a try?

However, I have decided to close down this business after the first few deals because the talent pool for modelling is relatively small in Singapore and we could not meet the demands of the merchants.
