==<font face="Segoe Script" size=5 color=#FF9933>Why TSM South Korea?</font>==
 
'''What motivates you to join TSM?'''<br>
 
Yes, i may be doing a second major in operation management. BUT i am also very interested in Entrepreneurship/Technopreneurship. =)<br>
 
 
Ever since i was young, i have always thought about having my own business and how it would operate.
 
Therefore, i wanted to take up operation management to have deep understanding about how a company operate and how to make operation works.
 
With that in mind, i decided to take up operation management instead any of entrepreneurship majors.
 
<br>
 
However, this is also THE reason why i am so interested in TSM(SOUTH KOREA). =)
 
Having to sacrifice taking entrepreneurship as a major, i believe that this TSM would allow all of us, including me, to have exposure to the technoprenuership environment.
 
<br>
 
With so much uncertainties and constant changes in IT industry, an entreprenuer aiming to start his/her IT company needs to have frequent exposures to the ever changing markets. In IT, the market is the whole world. 
 
Currently working in a SME, i realized the importance of getting exposure to the operations of each company and listening to company owners.
 
<br>
 
The best way to learn to not through in-class modules but it is through real world interactions.
 
No one can speak of lessons that only the company owners had overcame and went through.
 
<br>
 
<br>
 
'''Why pick South Korea?'''<br>
 
Like everyone, who doesn't want to travel to South Korea?!! Hahahaha<br>
 
But more than that, South Korea is a heaven for IT and gaming. <br>
 
Throughout the years, many famous IT software and games were invented in South Korea. <br>
 
Yes, i am interested in the food and the wonderful travel experiences in South Korea.<br>
 
Yes, i am also very interested in finding out how is the IT culture and also start up experience from tech owners.<br>
 
 
Nothing is fresher than real sharing from real people working with real IT business. Well just like no one can learn debugging by reading about debugging. We need to try debugging ourselves to know what is debugging. <br>
 
 
<i> So.... Let's Debug South Korea!!! </i>
