Word from Member 會員小語

Last month, I went to Guangdong for a business trip (I use to call the trip a “labor reform勞改” as I always stay in my client’s factory and have on place to go). On my way returned to Taiwan, I received text message for China Airlines that my flight was delayed. The flight was delayed for 3 hours eventually. I used the time staying in client’s factory and waiting for the flight to read a book “JUSTICE, what’s the right thing to do?” written by Professor Michael J. Sandel, Harvard University.

In this book, you will find our stereotype about justice (right or wrong) might not be correct. The line between black and white is not that clear as we thought if you consider from different aspects. It is so inspiring that open our mind in looking at the world we live. It is a nice book that deserves to read.
