Ride on China growth

NEXT month, engineer Steven Goh will step into China for the first time, to work as a management trainee.

It is a dream come true for the 26-year-old, who sees it as a springboard for enterprising young professionals.

'I was looking for a chance to work in China because everyone knows it is booming and I want to start a business there one day,' said the civil engineering graduate from Nanyang Technological University.

'I hope working with Yanlord Land will help me explore the business opportunities,' he added, referring to the Singapore-based property giant that is offering him a six-month internship in Zhuhai in Guangdong province.

He is among three young Singaporeans picked to intern with Singapore companies in China, under a new initiative of networking group Business China.

Called the Young Leaders Programme, it was applauded by Senior Minister Goh Chok Tong yesterday for helping 'spread our wings in China'.
