I would like to express my gratitude to the CTCI Foundation for giving me a great opportunity to visit organizations, companies and cultural centers, such as InvesTaiwan of Ministry of Economic Affairs, CTCI Corporation, E.Sun Bank, Foxgreen Co., Ltd., Taiwan Life Insurance Co., Ltd., Topco Scientific Co., Ltd., Anyo Museum, Kelly Bay Jane Milk Museum, and National Center for Traditional Arts. The participating group was like an international family constituting of 32 graduate students from 13 different nations, all of us are studying at Taiwan’s universities. And CTCI Foundation provided a platform where we could exchange our thoughts and experiences during the three-day enterprise visit. CTCI Foundation helped Tier 2 students by boosting their confidence level and introducing Taiwan’s research and development advances, business and job opportunities, visa related options to continue work and other important activities for international students. It’s precious for me to learn a lot of information about Taiwanese organization, research activities, business and working opportunities available in Taiwan. I started to consider my future career after graduation, now there are a lot of channels opening up for me to reach the destination and build a successful life. Among the visited companies, I appreciate CTCI Corporation aims to provide their employees with a healthy and wealthy lifestyle, that is very important to every working professional to have successful life. As well, their key initiatives of technological advances and international graduate student scholarship and academic programs are highly remarkable. I also appreciate E.Sun Bank initiatives of opening up large numbers of libraries in rural areas for schools children who lack study opportunities— these libraries fulfill their study needs. E.Sun Bank has a catchphrase of “stay hungry stay foolish” which I really like. As for TOPCO Scientific Co., Ltd. and Foxgreen Co., Ltd, I appreciate that they are aware that our earth is undergoing rapid climate changes like global warming, high CO2 emission, and they try to tackle these issues by implementing new initiatives of green energy and environmental researches. Once again, I thank all the staff from CTCI Foundation and each organization and cultural center we had visited. All of you supported us from beginning to the end during the trip. I will remember their warm hospitality forever.
