We westernize our food by adding more taste on satay gravy with 7 spices while maintaining its original Satay stick. This to give different taste depends on customer preferences and interest rather than stick to one original gravy which is nuts gravy.

4.1.2 Product design
Our specialty is that our product is based on seven spices which are by marinade with a black pepper, pepper, honey, curry, chili pepper, paprika, and cinnamon. We put 10pcs of satay in one packet. One packet with one flavor. We also provide a packet of satay that consist of all flavor of spices.
4.2 Place
We are targeting to have our stall opened at a place where it can be seen as strategic, to have a place where we can operate near to our suppliers and also for our customer to reach us easily. The nature of our business which will require us to get our materials from companies who can provide an affordable chicken poultry and beef to us and also to have a strategic place where the place that people always come and hang out for having dinner. We plan to have our stall in Damansara since it is the most strategic place where it is not too near and too far from the city, plus, it such a favorable place for people to come and having food. Thus, will give us the advantage to make arrangements in our business.
4.3 Promotion
On promotion our company will focus on build the relationship with consumer. The promotions tools used to create the relationship such as website, social media, word-of-mouth and so on. Since we are just starting our business, we need to do a lot of promotion to gain trusted consumer.

For the price, we are using such a skimming pricing seems this is a new product in the market and we have no competitive yet. But still we put an affordable price in order to let all the customer to buy our satay. Our selling price is 1pcs = rm 1
5.0 Host country
Host country is the country that brings the original products from home country and commercial the product to the host country. We all knows that Satay food is one of the famous food in Malaysia and it is becoming one of the compulsory food that makes all people who comes to Malaysia will try this food. The traditional Satay food that is made from chicken and beef will be grilled with a spices and eat with “kuah kacang” becoming one of the trademarks of Satay.
When we plans to supply our original Satay worldwide, we need to do an adaptation based on the countries culture and environment. Our target is to supply our “7 spices” of Satay to European countries because we knows that culture there can accept the chicken and meat food and of course our special Satay taste will be adding a new flavor but maintaining the original flavor.
Our focusing countries in European is Australia because that countries can supply many more fresh meat to produce our Satay products and Australian people choose protein as their compulsory food there and our “7 spices Satay” is made from a fresh meat. And we believe that our product can be accepted there. And we adding a variety of flavor to fulfill the taste of the Australian people there. For the first 5 years, we will do a market survey and after that we can knows the better ways of strategies will be use there and what type of flavor of Satay is higher demand in Australia.

6.0 Entry Strategy
Joint Venture
A joint venture is an association of two or more individuals or companies engaged in a solitary business enterprise for profit without actual partnership or incorporation. It can also occur with the small businesses that believing partnering will help them to successfully fight their bigger competitors. Joint venture gives the advantages such as sharing of risk and ability to combine the local in-depth knowledge with a foreign. By joint venture also, it will makes the small business easy to enter into the new market as because they had partner with the existing company in the market.
Another reason why we choose in doing joint venture is because we had a similar objective with the host country company. As we can see Australia as our host country are the biggest meat supply worldwide. It is easier for us to collaborate or insourcing meat from Australia itself to produce our Satay. This give us benefit as it similar to us as we sell Satay from meat and chicken. In addition, Australia and Malaysia both are in the same page which are into meat and chicken as our main food. This gives us big opportunity to joint venture with Australia Company to expand our business to the market.
Besides that, Australia is the best decision to enter the market as their country is one of the biggest populations in the world. We can make more profit from their population to sell our Satay. it is easier for us as Australian are into protein food and our Satay food are from meat and chicken which is protein food. This make our food acceptable as it is one of their main course. This can allow us to attract Australian to try our Satay.
Other than that, Australia is the biggest supplies of fresh cow meat. This is the best idea and advantage for us to produce and expand our satay in coming years. This is because we can expand our business by produce Australia’s meat as our Satay and create a production place for our satay in Australia. This indirectly helps us to save a lot of cost rather than import from our country.

7.0 COMMERCIALIZATION
Four our project, we have chosen Australia as the country that we like to commercialize. The main reason for choosing this country because Australia is one of the rich county that supply many cows, where their KDK and GDP is higher capita per year. Other than that, Australia currency is higher than Malaysia. In Australia, the governments really encourage their people to do entrepreneur. The government also really concern to their economic development. By having our innovation product it can be a good opportunity to Australia.
Global market in the entry strategies consists of exporting, licensing, franchising, contract manufacturing, joint venture, wholly owned subsidiaries and strategic alliances. For our products, we used a joint venture as our strategies to market our products globally. The country that we choose to global our products is Australia. Why we choose Australia as our host country because Australia is one of the world richest country that can supply fresh meat; so it can help us to markets our products. Besides, as the newest products in the market, the most convenient way to start promoting our product is choose a country that can adapt with our new products. Among all the countries closest to this, the easiest way to start in European country is Australia.
The reasons why we choose this country are their culture on the use of language. They use English as a priority language and this language can be use worldwide and it is easier for us to communicate with them. Other than that, authorities from the Australia were helpful and welcoming the new entrepreneur from Malaysia and it is suitable for us. Other than that, we also want our host country, just not helps us to markets our products at their country but also wants Australia helps us to markets at other regions in the future. This is one of the important ways why we choose this country. Moreover, we also can build a good relationship with them for the long term period.
Besides, the most important reasons we choose Australia because of the term of transportation and logistics itself. We can easily enter their markets whether by air, land or sea transportation. In terms of currency, the profits when we sell our product there we can get a triple return rather than in Malaysia only because of the currency, $1 dollar equal to RM4.30. So, it is suitable to us that are newest in the business. There are benefits that we can get when we market our products at this country such as purchasing power among people at the Australia is high. This benefits will help us to increasing the sale there.

Unseen Career

...A career that goes unnoticed by many people is building classic cars is what I do. This is where the work that you do means everything and it can leave you with nothing. The business is not hard to get into, but surviving can have its difficulties. The people that make up the classic car world are all people that can work with their hands. Working with my hands is what I am best at and I love to show the talent I have through building classic cars. These “classic cars” consist mainly of cars that are below the 1980’s. The cars that I choose to work on are between 1930 and 1980. That is a large time frame when you think of how long cars have actually been around. Through those fifty years there are different makes and models of cars, and thousands of very rare cars. Building a classic car can be done a bit differently, there are cars that are driven quite a bit and there are cars that are hardly ever driven. The cars that are hardly ever driven are considered to be the show cars. These cars are my main focus on building, because these cars cost a lot more to build. With show cars there are large amounts of time spent on every little details of the car. And with a car that is driven a lot it is not perfected at all of the details because it is made to be used and not shown.

It is about growth. It is the very choices that mold persons and takes them from childhood to adulthood. If managed properly it makes us mature, able to navigate through life’s challenges. As an adult, you are in control of your actions, your failures and your successes. Linda Galindo said it best “When you are truly responsible, you believe success or failure is up to you, even if you work within a tea or are blindsided by unforeseen circumstances”. (L. Galindo) In order to be mature you must take seriously your personal responsibility, not accepting personal responsibility will make a person inadequate for decision making. Leaving them possessing the thinking of a child. Although personal responsibility is every person’s charge, it is not a given skill. It must be developed.

Requirements, research works, reports and examinations abound student’s life especially during college verve. Every student knows the terror of examination.

Summary

...Strayer University | Summary | “Farm Girl” | | Alli Brown | 4/19/2012 | | This is a summary of Jessica Hemauer’s “Farm Girl.” This was a narrative essay where the writer, Jessica Hemauer, talks about her childhood growing up on a farm. I believe that the audience for this essay was more than likely a teacher or professor. The tone was not set for the essay as a whole. Depending on the part you were reading in the essay, the tone goes through many different emotions from angry to respectful and patient to sad and depressed then to happy. My emotional response to this essay was that growing up on a farm must be very hard on children. I felt bad that she and her brother and sisters had to get up so early to do chores around the farm, while other children their age were still soundly sleeping in their warm, cozy beds without a thought of waking up anytime soon. There are many points of this essay that stuck out to me personally, however, the main point was very clear; that growing up on a farm was very difficult as a child but, made her a more mature, responsible and strong willed adult. Jessica and her brother and sisters had a very strict, time sensitive routine every morning before school in order to get all the various chores and jobs done as well as shower, get dressed, eat breakfast and make it to the bus for school. The farm had to come first before anything else; it was the entire family’s first priority. The children had to face harsh weather conditions...

Ethical

...Some believe health care to be a fundamental right while others consider it a privilege. Consider how you and your family utilize health care resources. Is access to health care a fundamental right that you exercise or a privilege earned? This topic strikes a sharp chord with me. Our family has insurance thankfully. Our family utilizes preventative medicine such as immunizations, dental cleanings and monitoring, and check-ups for my children at the pediatrician. My husband also has to have yearly physicals related to his job. We are very blessed to have access to healthcare in the ways that we do. We still have to pay our copays and expensive prescription deductibles, but am very happy with the insurance we have. I think healthcare is a fundamental right. Stating that healthcare is a privilege earned is absolutely ridiculous! My father has worked at a sawmill for at least 40 years. His boss chooses not to carry insurance and never has. My mother had insurance for a while when she worked at a local factory which laid off employees three years ago. Sine then, she has not been able to find steady employment.
