'Kaizen' (Japanese Word)

Yeah, I have came back from my Hokkaido Trip. This is my forth trip with Public Mutual since I joined in 2004, and yet it is the most calming trip, as compared to other trips I went (Perth in 2005, BeiJing in 2006 and Hong Kong in 2007) this is the least exciting trip in my mind.

Don't ask me why, because I don't know, maybe because it is the most anticipated trip I was waiting for, and it is overwhelmingly calming?? It kinda reminds me of my 1st visit to England, I was expecting skyscrappers and all I get was Farm Houses, Wheat Fields and over polite English people...

Hokkaido.. or should I say Japan, in my mind was a technology country where I get to see lots of my dreams gadget come to life and overfashionable humans running around the street. But the most exciting things I get there is the natural Hot Spring bathing experience. Yes, like what you see on TV, we were naked ( I mean yes naked as in no cloth) and walking around the mans bathing area looking for the right temparature pool to sink ourself into. Yes, like you can imagine seeing your respected boss naked in the changing room when you went swimming together. haha~

But don't get me wrong, the trip is great, and I would love to share this with you in the coming days when I take my time to sort out all the photos. But for the time being, what I see, hear and observe along the 8 days touring around the cities, the same old word was ringing in my mind, I know this word since 1999, it was a word use by a local software house which claim this is the core value of their company in developing the best software in the world, and the word is Kaizen.

I would love to share with you more on this word but for the time being, just read the information provided by the link. Keep tune in!
