Therefore, to keep pace with the fast moving world with modern technologies, I need to think fast and do things faster.

After the competition of my school, my plan is to go back to my home country as a worthy candidate for leading a reputed business organization. The multinational companies, banks, organizations and business enterprises always give priority to overseas and globally recognized certificates. The degree I get after I graduate will help me set my professional life as a chief in any types of business sectors.
