Updates for Gananan Forum Worldwide

Had quite an interesting international conference call held last night. It was the first time that we had such a big international conference call from 4 different countries including Seoul, Shanghai, Singapore and Washington DC.

Was particularly inspired by Jane’s passion in setting up Gananan Forum in DC, could feel the excitement she had especially since that night they would be conducting her first session for Fall. And from her email to us today, she was very happy about the session that they had. Quite glad and excited for her.

Okay, I shall continue with each forum’s update:
