LIVING‧EATING‧TRAVELING
I am a new member of USI, recently just joining as the former Advanced Sourcing Manager for mechanical components at Asteelflash. This story I would like to share happened many years ago, but it is still in my memory, and I would love to share this with my new colleagues. This is one of the warmest memories of the many travels that I have experienced. It is appropriate that this occurred in Taiwan, the birthplace of USI. I was in Kaohsiung for a sales meeting with WUS Circuits, a company that I was selling for at that time. It was a weekend day, Sunday, and it was my birthday. The Grand Hotel is located near a very well-known park, Cheng Ching Lake, so I decided to go out for a walk from my hotel to enjoy the area and see some views of Kaohsiung. It was a beautiful day, and I enjoyed the sights along the way, including the Nine Corners Bridge on the lake.
