| "Part
of our vision is to try to build up the image of Asian-made software.
Right now it is still being perceived as second grade." |

|
| "I'm
very communicative when I'm with my children. So we're rather close.
Once they wanted to form a band. I let them. I and my hubby simply
became their singers. That's the way with the young today. You can't
be too rigid all the time." |

|
 |
|
| "I
tell my children, 'You already finish studies. You come in and try
(my business). If you like, you stay. If you don't like, you leave.'" |

background may be very Oriental but when it comes to business operations.

always feel that competition is healthy. It provides you with challenges
to provide better services and newer techniques to serve your customers.

our company doesn't provide lunch, we will never get hungry in our

| "Since
very young. I have always been very involved with computers. When
I was 12, I wrote a database program for a friend. It was then that
I realised I could make money out of my knowledge of computers." |

|
 |
|
| "At
first, (staff) tended to be a bit skeptical when I was interviewing
them. At times, they really believed I was the personal assistant
to the CEO or the office manager instead (as the aerospace industry
is dominated by men). |
| |
|
 |
|
| "Business
has always been in my blood. I wanted to do it earlier but since I
didn't come from a rich family, I couldn't start one just like that.
After working for a few years. I had saved enough. So why not?" |
