A letter of appreciation from Toshinori Yoshioka, on behalf of the GEC Team Japan 2011. He is in the centre of the group, wearing glasses.

Dear Dr Ben Chan,

First I would like to thank you for all the things you’ve done to make this GEC to happen. On behalf of the Japanese team, I would like to show our deepest appreciation.

Through this Global Enterprise Challenge, we`ve experienced a lot. Not only from GEC but from you too. I was very interested to your story that you’ve told us on the bus. History of Singapore, about the port, about the skyscrapers, and relationship between Japan and Singapore.I also enjoyed the jokes from you too. We were deeply impressed by your cordial hospitality from this too. Dr Ben’s generous and warm hearted hospitality really helped us to feel comfortable and also helped us breaking the ice.

I enjoyed this competition and through this competition I have learnt about importance of cooperation between others. Not only with team mates but with every people too. Including Staffs, Mentors and other.I’ve also strongly felt that this sort of competition would not take shape without great deal of cooperationfrom many people like mentors, staffs, sponsors, and administrators.

In the end, I would like to represent Japan team to thank you again for putting this wonderful oppurtunity in shape. Thank you so much.

Sincerely

Toshinori Yoshioka

Thanks Toshinori! We are glad you had fun and took back a unique experience with us at GEC and Singapore Hub.
