The OSM was an eye-opening experience that I would not trade for anything, despite my gripes about the cold freezing weather, the overly oily food and the horribly smoky restaurants. Well, that made me appreciate Singapore so much more, at least! :0)
The company visits we made to the various start-ups and establishments were really enriching. [...]

It was Wednesday 16th of December 2009, the third day of the iLEAD batch 4 Overseas Study Mission in Shanghai. We would be visiting Suntech Power Holdings, the largest solar PhotoVoltaic (PV) module maker in the world and Suzhou International Science Park.

I was already [...]

I intended to share my thoughts about Chinese entrepreneurs on the forum when I was in Beijing. However, the thread is postponed till today because of our packed schedule. And just a statement here: below is my own opinion, please feel free to exchange ideas with me J
