SUCCESS BAGGAGE
by: Elenor M. Malimata
Vishu was born in India. India is amongst the poorest countries in the world, so there are
only a few opportunities for success. Because of this, he decided to move to another
country where door of opportunities open more freely than in his hometown. He decided
to migrate to Thailand. During his flight, he thought that he would have difficulty adjusting
to Thai culture and finding it difficult to find friends because of the language barrier.
Thailand proved this wrong because of the warm welcome of its people. Vishu find them
accommodating and cordial, understanding that he was foreign and still unfamiliar to their
country. He found a nice place to stay, and after a while, he was able to adapt to
Thailand’s environment. As Vishu was now comfortable with his life in Thailand, he started
mall business he had when he was still in India, and it became a big thing among the
people. Indeed, he could smile widely because of the ambience and opportunities
Thailand has offered him in this place.
