Matthew Jackson - Korean Shipping Industry and a
Friday 2nd of December 2011
Matthew Jackson from the Korean Spirit & Culture Promotion Project presented an excellent lecture this week at the Initiatives of Change Centre in Victoria, London.
His presentation focused on the Global situation and how it might benefit by adopting South Korean ideals and general approach to life. He highlighted the overall presence of positivity, determination to progress and a dedication to the nation for the benefit of everyone rather than oneself. He quoted the great efforts every Korean had made to support the country in times of debt and recession when everyone handed over their personal wealth to the Government to save the nation. Something that is hard to imagine happening in the West today?
He also spoke of Hyundai and their determination to establish the Worlds best Ship Building Industry in Korea. How the founder set out to achieve his dreams with no money, no port, no experience and yet managed to build the best shipyard in the World.
Check out the KSCPP site and watch the video on Ship Building. If this does not convince you that anything is possible with determination and dedicated effort - nothing will.
