The last lecture by professor jiang was actually rather ugly, i think we really offended her. She commented that we are unable to see past the short comings of china people. And we kept commenting on it. Yes that is a fact, however, we were unable to understood her question and being singaporeans firstly, we dont like to ask, we like to act as if we know everything, to assume. And also we only remember the bad, not the good. And only after the presentation was stopped and her 'scolding' she showed us what she wanted, things like 4Ps etc. What is the use of sending an army of unbrief solders not knowing what to do, and they all did what they assume is the thing, died and some servery injured and come back to be given the proper briefing?
Anything I learned in culture class would be, communication is the key to learning new cultures, and often, we will be met with language barriers and the culture differences, but if there is tolerance and patience, one will be able to learn new culture and take good advantage.
IS Presentation was good, but I did not think that I did very well, as in, i could have done better, and i was unsure why the confidence had been sapped away from me all of a sudden :(.
Still, I shall do well for the last lap in bcomm2 impromptu speech, do it once, do it well, do it twice, do it better.
