Special Report of Vicky Zhao at Slideshare on Sun Tzu

Here is the special report of Vicky Zhao on SunTzu now uploaded at Slideshare.   It was a required reading for us before.  Now it an optional, just a report in the class.  A strategist can learn much from this presentation.  Many Generals of the modern times swear by Sun Tzu.

I remarked that the 5 elements in Sun Tzu can be like the major component of business plan:  concept, objectives, external forces, internal, and the strategy (the law)

Growing interest in enegy projects; JG Summit in Meralco; we in affordable energy and power

JG Summit was in the news investing for the first time in power sector P80B into Meralco.

We do not have that much in our war chest.  It is not even an ammunition box.  But our lending company would be embarking on "Affordable Power for the People Program"  We are initially marketing solar panels and aircon.  (See our site.  Solar Aircon)

We will be reselling, referring, marketing solar aircon from a main distributor based in a Free Port Zone(it makes sense so that he can distribute cheap).  And he is tapping us probably to gain access to a large MM market.  He has resellers in Marikina and Quezon city but has large blackholes in MM.

What are the opportunties:

1.  Dealership and service centers

2.  Remarketing

3.  Buying the old aircon units and refurbishing with heat collector

4.  Industrial installations and consultancy

5.  Local manufacturing

6.  Same technology for car aircon.

According to the ME, manager of multinational, that way we can provide jobs to our friends and other relatives.   Nation building

I showed a famous fastfood chain several possible sites; I saw several businesss opportunities

Rizal PHL   October 6 2013

I was helping a senior officer of a fast food chain get a site in our town.  I met him at a faculty conference.  He immediately sent his business development assistant.

I showed him several sites last October 4, 2013

1.  One near the market  -  he was interested in this and made an offer at once.  He did not do that for other sites.

2. One going out of the town near the end of diversion road.  The documents were not available though.

3.  Two sites at the highway:   one near the 711 (about 3000 sm) and the other one near the # 2 site about 2000 sm.

4.  Two sites near the SM center.  However they are for sale at Pl7,000 per sm and have very bad terrain.

5.  One in front of the entrance of SM center being built and near Meralco.

I have several business opportunities in mind should the firm say no especially to no 3 and no.5.

The tripping helped me clarify the business opportunities that are available
