Why TSM South Korea?
What motivates you to join TSM?
I believe there are still aspects where Information Technology have yet to penetrate through to make a difference, and i want to achieve that. TSM will serve as an opportunity for me to observe how innovation happens around Asia.
Why Korea?
Their Culture Can Provide Us With Many Learning Points.
- The strong cultural influence could give us insight on how a culture could be so well established and recognised across the globe.
High Information Technology Penetration
- How the entire country is heavily involved in adopting information technology could teach us a thing or two on IT innovation.
Starting a business
What types of businesses interest you?
- Information Technology in:
- Social Enterprise
- Food Industry
- Sports Industry
Why?
In Singapore, we are starting to see the growing trend in people giving back to the Society. But yet the process of trying to achieve it is still very much inefficient. I hope to bridge this gap and allow greater circulation of resources as people gives back more to the society that we collectively owns.
How
As more and more companies are starting to adopt Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), how many are actually able to fully utilize their resources to achieve this goal?
In this case, i am looking for an opportunity to study and work with input resources from various contributors, such that we can try to achieve ideal resources utilization, maximizing the resulting output and making sure aid reaches the part of society who needs it the most.
What keeps you ticking?
- Bread, Happy Faces and A Free Soul.
