I think, on a broader scale off the financial sector, actually, most people would have known now that the distribution channels have changed a lot. We like to ask our guests what the biggest trend is in insurance and insurtech, just for some context. But let’s talk a little bit about business. I’ll tell you, I’ll tell you, I’ll tell you. Anyway, yesterday was really fascinating. But if I’m saying one thing and doing another thing. But it’s purposely diverse, right? You know, one of the things my grandfather’s said to me when I was little as you are what you do, not what you say? Right? So I can talk all I want about subject X or subject y. And to be fair, if you look at all of the stuff that I do, it’s super diverse. Unbothered, right at all, like nail polish, I don’t care who you are what you do, like, I’m really indifferent. Right? Because how can I say this? Again? He was wearing makeup. I had an interesting experience yesterday with a guy that was on one of the calls that I did. Yeah, particularly like I don’t wear makeup, right? No, no. Maybe myself maybe like, like, face painting or no face painting? I guess like for for some people working from home, or you tend to look a little dress down? For some people. But I think you’d look exactly the same as as we did in the in the calls. And you’re thinking about me? He’s much shorter than expected. She’s much taller.īut I know you’re thinking that right? Yeah. But you you kind of have to match that person with the impression of the person size and then when you see that person in person, they’re like, Oh, okay. It’s a strange thing, I think that’s happened over the past couple of years. But I’ve had a lot of this actually, in the last month where I’ve met people face to face that I’ve never met in person before. It’s weird, though, isn’t it? Because we’ve met virtually, You just got home? Yeah, yeah.Īnd I was so excited to see you here in Singapore. So it’s just this weird trigger in my brain of like, why khun anyway, it’s great to have you here. As opposed to Michael Son if you’re like a little boy.

But Khun in Japan is a honorific for a little boy. Which is interesting, right? Because it makes my name in Thailand, Mikuhn. So like in Thai, a trailing l even in Thai pronounced as an N. And like the L at the end in some Asian languages is not pronounced. I want so I always say like, people always say to me, like because I’ve lived outside the United States for most of my life, right? So Michael is hard to pronounce because of the way the AE is. Yeah, so I respond to anything from a spectrum of that My teachers were not reading my name right for like 20 years. So it’s fine.Ĭheryl, I would never get this no l there, right? Yeah, I respond from anything from Cherry to Cheryl. Remember the first time? I got it wrong? Did you? I think I had the hard ch. You’re thinking, Am I close enough to the microphone? Today we are joined by Cherie Wang. Listen to our other epside with Cherie here.įind the transcript of our conversation below.

Hope that things can change and recover, hope that nature can heal if someone “cares a whole awful lot.The Asia InsurTech Podcast spoke with Cherie Wang, the co-founder of Planner Bee, about the changes we are seeing in distribution in general and why the insurance industry has been lagging behind this new movement. Can it be saved? Seuss gives children the most important message of all in the final stanzas of the book: a message of hope. Thanks to the Once-ler’s greed, what was an oasis for so many creatures is on the brink of becoming a smog-filled wasteland.

But as we all know, that beautiful place is in jeopardy. That’s the magic of Seuss, whose wild characters, including Brown Bar-ba-loots and Swomee-swans, populate the mystical world the Lorax lives in. A cautionary tale full of lines disguised as silly rhymes warning of climate collapse, Lorax quotes continue to teach children to care for the planet.īy reading this book or watching the movie adaptation you can share these quotes with your children and help them better understand the importance of protecting the planet without being preachy. Seuss seemed to know what was coming with climate change when he wrote about the Once-ler, a selfish profiteer hellbent on destroying a Truffula forest to fashion Thneeds, all purpose objects (which everyone, everyone, everyone needs), and the sage Lorax who tries to persuade him to stop. Seuss’s famous book The Lorax was published in 1971, but the way it reads you might think its message of protecting the planet was produced today.
