Just about to get on a plane back to Tokyo and would like to say a big thank you to the folks in Singapore for their great food and warm hospitality.
Thanks to Promax, Animax and the folks who took time off during a weekday afternoon to be at the workshop. Was great meeting you.

This pic was taken at the workshop after doing my Golem - group photo with some of the folks who stayed behind to network.

See you again soon Singapore. Going to miss you (especially the food ^^;)
