Damnoen Saduak Floating Market

Travel

“Now that travel is slowly resuming, especially in Asia, I recommend visiting Bangkok. See the city by cruising down the Chao Phraya River, or by doing some shopping at ICONSIAM shopping mall. For a more rustic Thai shopping experience, visit one of the traditional markets, such as Damnoen Saduak Floating Market (about 100 kilometres southwest of Bangkok), or Maeklong Railway Market. Best of all, there are direct flights to and from Bangkok, making it an easy city to visit.” –  Frank Ho FCPA, Assistant Accounting Manager, Siemens Logistics Limited

Read

“I recommend The Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren. The book takes readers on a 40-day personal spiritual journey and presents what Warren says are God’s ‘five purposes for human life on Earth.’ We all face challenges every day, and knowing one’s purpose in life can make a great difference. For me, my Christian faith has always guided me through many difficulties. This book has helped me to reflect and in doing so, to understand my purpose – and God’s purpose for me.” – Bosco Lin CPA, Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer of DTTD

Joey Yung

Listen

“My favourite artist is Joey Yung, who is, in my opinion, one of the best female singers in Hong Kong’s Canto-pop scene. What I like about her the most is her perseverance and how she strives for excellence in every performance. I was deeply impressed by her determination when I attended her concert in 2013 and saw how she still delivered a flawless performance despite being sick and almost having lost her voice. I also enjoy singing very much and can sing almost all of her songs! Of all her songs, I like 世上只有 the most, which translates to ‘My whole world.’ It is a soothing and touching song about the greatness of a mother’s love.” – Cynthia Chan CPA, Compliance Manager at a bank
