Health & Life Sciences Evangelism Team in the Far East...our 6 week adventure begins today!
Over the next 6 weeks, Hong Choing (Microsoft Healthcare colleague) and I will be doing a work rotation @ Microsoft's Beijing China offices
During this journey, we will work with Healthcare & Life Sciences entities throughout China, Hong Kong, Korea, and Japan. I plan on visiting many Healthcare & Life Sciences facilities like the one pictured here in Beijing
My first impressions of China is that it is a country with great history, pride, and enthusiasm for a prosperous future. I plan on observing their Healthcare philosophies and ideals doing a contrast and compare to western medicine and operations. I will share these observations with all of you throughout my time here in the far east.
Yesterday, we visited Mings Tombs just outside of Beijing.
One of the locals explained that when walking through a emperors passage or entrance into someone's home, it is proper for men to enter left foot first...and women to enter right foot first. So today as I start my journey @ Microsoft in China, I will be certain to enter left foot first and eyes wide open to everything this fascinating part of the world has to offer.
