Day 28 - Pharmaceutical Company Visit

Had lecture and and quiz for chapter 8 at 10am today, didn't had much to do as we are nearing the end of the module. After completing our quiz, we were free to go off. We were also told to gather back at 2pm for a factory visit to a pharmaceutical company.

Had lunch in the school before proceeding for the visit. The company was actually just a 15mins bus ride away from our school. All of us were actually expecting to at least see some laboratory in the company. But in the end we were only touring the company from the outside, since they didn't allow any visitors inside their company as hygiene standards of such place are usually very high.

As we could not enter the building itself, the tour of the place was relatively short. The tour of the place actually only last 40minutes. This tour was more towards for the LSCT students who were always there with us. They actually had to do a report on the place when they return back to school.

Reflections
Usually when we think of China, we will think that their hygiene level are really low. But actually after visiting this company, I realize that not all places in China will have low hygiene level. Their technology and their precaution measures are actually on par with what we see in Singapore.
