I felt as if my heart had stopped beating when I learned that I have been selected for the 49th IATSS Forum. I was numb for the moment out of joy! It has been months but the excitement never fades whenever I recall.
Can someone ever imagine going to Japan to be trained with skills one would need in the future career while everything will be taken care of for you during your stay in Japan? Yes, that’s correct, I say… in Japan, a country famous for its inspiring spirit and people. Participants are young professionals of different abilities and interests with unique ideas. The topics discuss will be on society, politics, economics,technologies, culture and international relations. Study tours and home stay to open up your existing knowledge and perceptions of life to prepare you for a better self. Plus, you feel the warm welcome from IATSS even before you are in Japan physically. You don’t feel lost or insecure of what to do next. What more one could ask for!
I’m hopeful that I will come back with memories of a lifetime, equipped with experiences compare to nowhere in the world. See you soon Japan ;)
