Getting down to business!

On Monday, the CSC officially got kicked off. The entire CSC team headed to  the IBM building in Bangkok. We were first welcomed by IBM executives followed by an introduction from ABV and our CSC clients IOMX and IDTP. Then each of our team members briefly introduced ourselves. In the afternoon, we held a meeting with our client to learn more about the organization itself, its mission and structure. It was very interesting to see how Thai people greet each other and start meetings. The traditional way of greeting is with two hands prayer like ,palms together called wai. It is the most respectful way of greeting.

For the past few days, we have been meeting with our client daily. The goal is to be able to build a mobile App to stop exploitation and empower current domestic workers in the South Asia region. This step will help in raising awareness, provide information and guide them. The target is to ease the tension between employer and employees and promote a healthier relationship. It will also provide them with tools and ways to improve their skills.
