Why Virtual TSM?

Firstly, I believe that this program will allow me to gain valuable exposure to different technologies and innovations. This will be especially applicable for me as I am a tech enthusiast.

By being exposed to different cultures, languages and ways of thinking, I aim to become a more well-rounded individual and a better global citizen through this study trip.

Lastly, I am confident that not only can I benefit from this, I am confident that I can contribute to this study trip as well. Not only am I an avid enthusiast in travelling, I am also a great planner. Hence I believe that I will be able to contribute well to the planning team. I also am interest in several of the Japanese companies listed, such as Sega and Suntory Distillery as they are familiar names and brands that I firsthand encountered with throughout my life and I am interested to visit these companies and see how the working culture is like there.
