Peter: Naturally not. Philips had sent me to Hong Kong to develop the areas of consumer electronics and accessoriesÉ Aletta: … and I had the opportunity to continue working for INg in Hong Kong, but only in the relatively dull insurance division. My heart wasn't in it, but I accepted the offer anyway because I definitely wanted to accompany Peter to Asia. Peter: Aletta's frustration was impossible to overlook. Aletta: There were 30 people at INg when I started in Hong Kong. All were Chinese and half of them couldn't speak English. It was a real challenge. I learned some worthwhile things, also about Chinese culture and mentality, so my time there wasn't wasted. But ultimately it was too uninteresting and couldn't satisfy my ambitions. No Fields Found.
