Why TSM South Korea
* What motivates you to join TSM
The motivation behind joining TSM for me is the fact that I will be able to see how things work in high tech companies and how they manage the challenges faced. I believe joining TSM will broaden my perspectives and learn about how things can be done differently as demonstrated by the other countries and not being constrained by the local practices of doing things. Besides, TSM takes learning out of the classroom and we are able to apply what we have learnt to real life!
* Why pick South Korea
South Korea is recognized as the world's top ranking technology market by the UN. It amazes me that how South Korea is able to rise up the technology ranking by so much within the past 2 years and slowing closing up the gap between them and the technology giants United States and Japan.
With TSM providing me with this opportunity to understand how the technology in South Korea market is like, I am more than excited to be part of this study mission and immerse myself in the South Korea culture!
