Singapore !!

Thank God that i was given an opportunity to attend a marketing course in Singapore regional office.. my first business trip in Toyota and my very first trip that i have to fly alone. ( now i know how mom feels when she traveled to Melb alone and visit sis).

Let's talk about the course first: honestly, i find the course fruitful, we have different colleagues from different country such as Korea, India, Thailand, Philippine, Taiwan and others to share their market situation and we had case study on Corolla. I get to know how people manage a product that has been existing so long the market and different markets will need different approach managing a product life cycle. I get to personally meet the people that i have always talk to on the phone and email....it was a fun yet very fruitful course. I wish there are more these that i can attend in future too...

I didnt really get a chance to shop around much but i visited James, Vanessa, Kiat and Joo Lian, and not forgetting that i wanted to go and see animals so i went to the ZOO...hahahhaha...

Check out the hotel i stayed:


And here comes the ZOOOOOO:
My thoughts after the trip: i have always think that i never like jobs that required traveling nor exploring my career in other countries, but i think i don't mind to explore my career out of Malaysia if opportunity comes, there are so much to see and learn out there...
